Monday night. Mar. 9th. the death of Efe Lillian Sweeney, widow of the late Lawrence Sweeney, took place at her home, 88 E.<: St. She was the cltlest daugrhter of Mr. and Mrs. O. Hooper, and was born at Painswick thirty-nine years ago. At an early age her parents moved to Craigvale, and came to Allandale about thirty years ago. She was mar- ried to Lawrence Sweeney in 1912 and resided in Toronto and London. moving back to Allandale shortly af- ter the war ended. Her husband pre- ':1'`ceased her in March, 1927, from . .he effects of war injuries. De- ceased had been in poor health for some time and gradually weakened until the end came. Five. children. Lorna, Lloyd, Gordon, Iola and Bernice remain to suffer the loss of a loving mother. The funeral took place from her late residence to Bar-' rie Union Cemetery on Wednesday affernoon. (Continued from page one) competition. It was notunusual for rinks in the smaller centres to win championships. The training and hard work keeps them t. Mr. Simp- son acknowledged that he had not been following very closely Canadian sports, but Canada had able repre- sentatives at the Olympic games. In rowing Jack Guest and Joe Wright won great fame for Canada, while Gaudaur of former years was not forgotten. In local hockey circles Arbour of Waubaushene was going strong, also Corbeau of Penetang. In sporting activities it was the in- dividual that counts and so in the making of a nation-each striving to do his or her best, in any organiza- tion, be it sports, society, church or state, makes for a great nation. Canada is a young country, but de- veloping fast. We must realize that we are passing through a depression, but with the character of our citi- zens, we cannot help but be back to normal prosperity in the near future. Our resources cannot be excelled. In a year or two Canada will be the second largest producer of gold in the world. In other min- erals we excell. Our forest wealth is high, while our agricultural wealth is well known. Flour and Oatmeal for Prizes Rev J. S. Shortt proposed the toast to the curlers, and recalled the days when he followed the game in the far west. That s where they play . the game, but there are just as good , curlers in the east. In the west they have a little di'erent style, us- ing more of the running shot, so that , they do not do so much sweeping. Mr Shortt caused some amusement when he told of going with a rink to the Edmonton bonspiel. When they arrived there it was 54 below zero and the ice had cracks half an inch wide and was covered with heavy frost. However, when they got going a while they forgot all about if. The sniel l:1.=l'rArl 19 Hi: (ls: we guulg 21. wuue Lney Iorgot all about The spie1 lasted 12 days.

Simon, in reply" to the toast, congratulated the citizens of Barrie on the fine banquet They had a wonclerfiul time in Toronto and im- provements were noted in the way the bonspiel was handled. In the Maedonald-eBrier competition they were proud to represent Toronto as well as Barrie. They met a lot of fine follows from all over Canada. During the last four years Barrie s record at the Toronto bonspield was: t In 1928, won 13 games, lost 2; in 1929, won 10, lost 3; in 1930, won [11, lost 4; in 1931, won 11, lost 2. Walter Allan responded on behalf of the Churchill curlers. The people 'of the Churchill district were proud of their junior rink, which won the 'l`ankard. The boys are all under 20 gyears of age and they are hoping for Jgreat tliings from these boys in the future. 1 12* rm........,..... ........._..x 11... L-..._L I '_..---usn.-.4.
