The "Address to the Haggis", from Burns' own writings, was given by Mr. A. Keddie in his own in- imitable manner and the grace, "Some hae meat, etc." made a fitting' prelude to the dinnenr. Hon. W. A. Gordon, K.C., was chairman for the evening and was at his best. The program which followed the banquet was in all respects suitable to the occasion and sev- eral well known local artists con- tributed. The toasts were pro- posed by Captain T. Magladery, R. McGowan and J. M. Coghill, and the artists who. contributed to entertain the company includ- ed Misses R. McCagherty, A. Shankland and K. Keddie, Mes- srs. Coghill, J. Bews, Jas. Ander- son' Geo.

The | Boys Making Good Time on Long Ski Hike to Toronto The three youths from North Cobalt, who are travelling to To-|§ ronto on a single pair of skis, are making good time on the first} part of the long trip. Last night they landed in North Bay at 9.45, feeling very little effect of the three days' travel, according to Robert McAulay, the father of one of the boys, this morning. A telephone message conveyed the news that they would start out this morning, with South River, some 45 miles south of the Bay, as their objective for see On Monday the boys made 38 miles and stopped in a road camp below Temagami. Tuesday even- ing they reached Tilden Lake, another 40 miles, and yesterday they made the remaining 25 miles to North Bay. They had heavy going all the way through the snow storm, but are hoping for better weather for the re- mainder of the trip.
