The win- ners of last night's game displayed the same form which has characterized their games all season and as a result of which they are leading the league Offensively and defensively they are a strong aggregation, In recent games they have been pounding the offerings of opposing pitchers with relentless regularity and in the field they have been right on their toes. Unless some- thing unusual happens the peppy wear- ers of the skull and cross bones, tra- ditional emblem of the austere, will add a third championship to their trophy shelf. From the outset of last night's game Pirates had the 'edge and at no time the G.M.C. girls even within hail- ing distance.

The Prime Minister later tried to prepare his Canadian Club speech in the quiet of Government House's urounds, but messages with "Many happy returns" from all over the cau- pire persisted in interrnntine him and he almost had to abandon his task. Tokens of esteem came from their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and Prince Ge:rge, and from their Excellencies Viscount and Viscountess Willingdon, Members of his staff pre- sented him with a silver staff, and Right Hon, William Lyon Mackenzie King, Prime Mmister of the Dominion, brought a wide grin to the visiting Prime Minister's face with the gift of a handsome gold-mounted cherrywool pipe. re mim So you want a joh on the railw, do you?" asked the man seated hind the big office desk, "Yies, sir," answreed the a cant, a rather frail-looking pe "What kind of work?"

It is safe to say that the eve the L.Y.R.A, regatta has never seen so much enthusiasm as is felt It may be that the majority of those racing tomorrow do not look beyond the joy and sport of the moment, but the "thinking few" see confirmation of the hopes of years in the promise that today gives them. Every club belonging to the Lake Yacht Racing Association is repre- sented--all are full of interest in the prospects of yacht racing for the fu- ture--cons struction--type- -class, and so on, and there is abundant evidence hat new boats will be built as soon as definite assurance of a standard type is decided upon.

"One member of the family at speech-making is enough," she added. She thanked "from my very heart" she said, every woman in Canada for the gracious hospitality which had been accorded her. She called them her Canadian cousins and desired to think of Canada as her overseas home. "I am afraid I am going to disap- point you," she said at the outset. "I am not going to make a speech. I told them at home before I started that if I spoke at all it would be to make an appeal for the hostel for working girls mn London, but no one wants an ap- peal after luncheon, especially when .hey are not prejared for that appeal. I do thank you al for the great kind- ness that has been shown Mr. Baldwin and myself. You don't know what it is to come several thousand miles and | realize you are among your own peo- | ple. "If I have failed to express myself ! adequately please take 1 that 1 am not equal to my task." Mrs. Baldwin | was overheard to remark that "where the Prime Minister goes, 1 go too." The charming daughter of Mrs. Baldwin, Mrs. Munro, who also occu- | pied a place at the table of honor, ' stood up when called upon and waved | her hand to the assembled women amu | quite the style of the present youtn- ful generation. The Women's Canadian Club, of Ot- Itawa took this occasion to also wel- roy Mrs. William Phillips, wife of the first minister to Canada from the | United States, who briefly expressed her gratitude for the hospitality which 'had been shown to her husband and | herself. Mrs. Charles Thorburn, the presi- 'dent, occupied the chair and others in "places of honor were the wives of the Cabinet Ministers and members of the judiciory.

Brown, who has lived in Osh- awa for the past seven years, was a colour sergeant of the King's Royal ! Rifles, stationed at the Tower of Lon- don which, contrary to general opinion, not garrisoned by Yeomen of the but by soldiers of line regi- page is Guard, ments. Colour Sergeant Brown was "walk- ing out" one fine day with a regimen- tal chum, a Sergeant Warren. They passed St. James Palace where Ser- geant Brown noticed a trim English nursemaid rolling a pram. With her was a merry little lad who romped about the carriage bearing his infant sister. He danced off the curb, precise moment a run-away cab dashed down the street. The little chap, not realizing his danger, made no move to escape the onrushing ve- hicle. and at that hansom The Rescue Sgt. Brown, one of the most active soldiers in his regiment, required but a moment to jump out, rescue the im- perilled boy and restore him to safety. The nurse asked his name and the ser- geant, at first, refused to give it. "Did- n't want any fuss made," he states. However, she insisted, and the two sergeants went om their way, neither of them thinking any more about it. A few days later Colour Sergeant Brown was summoned before his. com- manding officer--a man of an acid humor, it appears He told his amazed sergeant that he was wanted at St. James Palace, but refused to éxplain the reason. A few hours later, both Sergeant Brown and his colonel were on their way, with the | commander taking mischievous delight in making lurid conjectures about whai would soon happen. Brown never had any inkling of what his summons meant until they entered the palace gates past rigid sentries standing at attention. Then { the colonel told him--he had saved the life of England's future Prince of Wales, and the future king--now King George V--and the Duchess of York wanted to thank him in person. The sergeant found the Duke of {York and the gracious lady who was | to ascend the throne as Queen Mary They both shook his hands, while perhaps more than a sug- gestion of moisture blessed the kind, proud eves of the royal duchess as she expressed a mother's gratitude for the rescue of her "little David." The Duke of York, now the King, handed a certain sum of money to the colonel which was, later, to be given to the sergeant accompanied with a formal statement to him of the future ruler's gratitude and appreciation. Not long after these events, Ser- geant Brown went to South Africa, from there he went to fight the Afridi tribes in India, and then, with the re- duction of the Imperial army, he came to Canada. But 1914 found him one of the first tunnel was so long, 1 would have kissed you." University: | Wasn't that you?" --Cynic. | "Give me a cup of coffee without | cream."

Sergeant Brown, in France, was with the Cana- dian Railway Troops; and HRH. Contain. | the Prine of W on was also a soldier "Somewhere in France." One day the Prince visited the rail- way corps finfopmally, and in going from man to man, asking questions as was his way, he ran across the man who had saved his life. Sergeant Brown merely mentioned it in -pass- ing, but the prince remembered. As in any other family, the story of his danger and rescue had become one of the high points in the prince's memories of his childhood. They met again at Regina after the war, as the picture which Mr. Brown prizes so highly shows. Letters, at regular intervals, come from York House in London to Sergeant Brown of Canada, each of them keeping in remembrance a moment when a loyal soldier saved the son of a hundred kings and the heir of the world's nob- lest dynasty from crippling injury or death. Mr. Brown was born in Devonshire County, England, speaks with the De- von accent. He is every inch the ex- imperial soldier, and a veteran of three wars. He is married and has four children. MYRTLE Myrtle, Aug. 3--Rev. George and Mrs. Beacack of Lansing, Mich., visit- ed the former's brother, Mr. James E. Beacock. Mr. Beacock kept a general store here a few years ago and his old friends were pleased to sce him again. Miss Margaret O'Boyle was in the city last week. Miss Blanch Cook gave her Sunday school class a picnic on Saturday which was much enjoyed by the little tots. Mr. and Mrs. of Lambton Mills spent the week-end at Mr. Edward Moles. Miss Nellie Harper of Whithy was a recent guest of Miss Mary Hawley, who returned with her to spend a few days in her native town. Farmers were almost discouraged with the continuous showery weather as their hay crop which was unusually heavy this year was getting badly bleached, but at time of writing pros- pects are getting brighter and hundreds of loads have been mowed away in the barn or stacked during the past few days. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Price and family are spending part of their holi- their uncle, Mr. George days with Chisholm of Toronto. Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Cook enjoyed a pleasant motor trip to Brantford re- cently. The construction gang finished shouldering up the highway on Satur- day, one can now go from the C.P.R. here to Toronto on a paved road. But as every body has mot the means to travel 'by motor some consideration should be made for pedestrains, as it is absolutely dangerous for one to at- tempt to walk on the road now even for a short distance. If it cost twenty- one thousand dollars a mile to lay this pavement, surely a simple walk on the side could be built for next to nothing and might be a great saver of human life.
