For Nationals, Huggins at centre, proved a good one, showing play- making ability and doing a world of effective back-checking. Kenny Kane was ever a threat, and he had no superior on the ice. McClelland, Lamport and McAlpine all flashed in spots. In fact, Harold Ballard's Sea Fleas as a team "clicked." While the 'zoalers were generally aiven good protection, both Essel- [tine and Geddes made some clever saves. Pickering (Miss Jean Clark, Correspondent) PICKERING, Dec. 23.--Mr. W. R.

On Tuesday evening, the A.Y. ?.A, of St. George's church held a splendid concert in their club- rooms in the Pirie Block.

A pleasant evening was spent by the United church Y.P.S. on Wednesday evening, when a Christmas program was carried out in rather an original way. When the members entered the Sunday School roll, they found a realistic fire-place with stockings hung in readiness for St. Nick at the front of the room. The diffus- ed lighting, caused by red tissue over the lights, added to the fesf- ive atmosphere. The members sat in a circle around the glowing fire, and enjoyed a program of carols, musical numbers, and Christmas stories, carried out in a most informal way. Proceed- ings were in the capable hands of the president, S. R. Wonnacott; Mr. Cyril Morley conducted the community, in his usual genial way, and Miss M. Lockwood and Gordon Crozier presided at the piano. At the close of the pro- gram, the ladies served home- made candy. "Why are you going to the public library, Mrs, Brown? Tak- en up science?"
