The kirk session, too, while expressing genuine appre- clation of what the government, and are' doing to enforce the act, would ex- press the hope that these efforts will not be relaxed."

NL ---- -------- VERONA HOCKEYISTS ARE CHAMPIONS THIS SEASON. The greatest excitement prevailed at the Holt Rink, Royal Military Col- lege, last night when Verona and Sunbury played a sudden death game for the championship of the County Hockey League, the Verona six win- ning out 3-2 after forty minutes of overtime. By thes kindness of the R.M.C. au. thorities the league was able to se- cure the Holt rink for the final, and it was well crowded with wildly cheering spectators who got their money's worth in excitement. Sunbury, after a nip and tuck se- ries with Wolfe Island, finally got to the finals by hard work. Verona had a much easier time and had no great trouble disposing of opposition in its own section. The teams were evenly matched, and, cheered on by thelr supporters, disputed every inch of ice and made the battle one that will be historic | in the annals. of the county league. Sunbury scored th® first goa! amid wild cheering from thy supporters of, the southern team. Then Verona evened things up and the score stayed at 1-1 for the full sixty min- utes. In the first overtime period Cue of France's wont puzulas actresses, Char- lotte Lysis, wh ose pets are blue ribbon winners at dog shows, declares that she is going to open. u] a shop where she will sell dogs de _ e raised in her own kennels Sunbury scored and made it 2-1. With only a minute or so left to play, and while one of the Sunbury defence men was dancing an untime-~ ly jig. a Verona forward wriggled through and tied it up once more. Three more overtime periods were played, forty minutes extra in all, left, Verona just about a minute scored the winning goal. Leighton Gordon was the for Sunbury and K. Trousdale Verona. Sunbury--Goal, Turner; defence, C. Patterson, L. Patterson; centre, L. he Ho wings, H. Gordon and Noble; subs., Wiltse and Meddoe. Verona--Goal, Revelle; defence, E. Trousdale and Manson; centre, K.

Before a very large crowd in the armouries last night, the Frontenac Regt. won the 4th game of the cham- pionship series, defeating the No. 3 Battery by the score of 11-4. This ties gp the championship series, and a grim struggle will take place in evening star for to their usual ftandard of perfection,' and did not rally throughout the game. While the field work of the Frontenacs was hair raising and ap- peed to the spectators to berun- natural, nothing being missed. Any team that ican hold No. 3 Battery to four runs in a game is worthy of high praise. Although No. 3 Bag- tery had an off night and made a few costly errors their play was of very high grade, and was pretty to watch. Both teams will step! on the field on Tuedday next in a very de- termined mood and fans who fall to see this final game will the treat of their lives. The stars\for Fron- te: were Compean and HW. Rich- ards, while for No. 3 Battery the two | hs as catcher and pitcher were hot stuff. An effort will be made by Col. Constantine, president of | the league, to have Gen. Elmsley, G.0.C., at the final game to present the league trophy to the winning team. Tuesday evening will be the last of indoor baseball for this sea- son, and the hardest struggle yet seen in indoor ball will be staged. Umpires will be Lawess, Arnie] and Young.
