Despite the very inclement weather ten years ago there was a fair attenâ€" dance at the hockey match between Porcupine Juniors and the Monteith Academy boys at South Porcupine. The Monteith boys had been very much handicapped during the year, there beâ€" ing so much snow as they had an open air rink and their practices were very uncertain. However they were clean sports and the making of a good team with plenty of hockey marrow in their bones, and the score of 8â€"4 in favour of the South Porcupine team was not a criterion of what might be expected from Monteith. Ten years ago the number of drunks per month convicted under the L.C.A. remained the same as those under the O.T.A.
