Some weelzs ago there was considerâ€" iation of the idea that an exhibition game might ‘be arranged in Timmins with the Sault Ste. Marie hockey team when the latter was up in this section of country playing with the Falls in the NO.H.A. series. The idea has been dropped now.. The Sault wanted a guarantee of $350.00 for a game here. As the lad said when ‘he dreamed he had inherited Henry Ford‘s money, is too much.‘‘ No one here had any idea of buying the Sault team ; they just wanted to rent it for a game. It wouldn‘t cos® the Sault a hundred dollars to come in‘ here for an exhiâ€" bition game. No one here, accordingâ€" y s s i _ After Every Meal It‘s the longestâ€"lasting confection you can buy â€"and it‘s a help to diâ€" gestion and a cleanser for the mouth and teeth.

No one here, accordingâ€" Iy, would want to ]n'nf'es\lcfilah?e *‘19 Sault team by overpaying them a ecouple of hundred dollars. So that‘s that! On the way home to Latchford from Cobalt on Jan. 2th, the young driver of a team of horses found the storm and cold so severe that he could xot get his team home. He left the horses and went for help when about a half mile from his destination. ‘When help was available one of the horses was found dead from the extreme eold, according to The Northern News, The other horse showed no signs of exhaustion. f 0T LIKELY THAT SAULT TEAM WILL PLAY IN TIMMINS FREE SUPPLIES NOW FOR PUBLIG 5CHOOL PUPILS Pupils at Timmins Public School Hereafter Will Not Need to Buy Books, Papers, Pencils or Other Supplies. Last week the Public Schools here received the first shipment of books and supplies, and this week the balâ€" ance of the order arrived. Hereafter pupils will not need to supply text books, pencils, seribblers, paper, ink, paints, or anything else. Everything needed at school will be suppled free at the Timmins Pwhlie Schools. Parâ€" ents and others may make a note of this:â€"Everything â€" that the pupils need at the Timmins Public Schools is supplied free of charge. Only in cases where the pupil â€" destroys or wilfully wastes is there any charge made for books or supplies. The new system wlil mean a very material saving to parents and will be esâ€" pecrally welceomed by those hil\'iflf_{'. large families. On the latter, the purchase of hbooks and supplies has in the past been a serious burden in miany cases. The new plan is expectâ€" ed to mean a very material saving to the people of Timmins. 1t will eliâ€" minate much waste, and will also make a better and more even standâ€" ard in the use of books and supplies. {Every Qupil will have good quality l supplies, enough _ of them, and all withouf waste. The plan has the adâ€" ditional advantage of placing all children on an equal footing in the matter of text books and supplies. The purchase of the books and snpâ€" plies in quantity by the Public Sehool Board means a material saving in the total cost. 1tWis estimated that apâ€" proximately $1,500.00 will pay for all text books and supplies for the Pubâ€" s lie Schools for a year. If the parents , | had to purchase the same books and supplies in the ordinary way it would cost considerably over $3.000.00 all told. For some years past Toronto, u| Hamilton and other cities have supâ€" plied the pupils with all the necesâ€" sary ggods for school work. A numâ€" ber of towns like Renfrew, Pemibroke, etce., have followed the same plan, and have found it economical and satisâ€" factory. j it m mt M y t s tA > ~alt have you?"

What kind NORTH BAY JUNIORS GIVE FALLS LIVELY CONTEST In an exhibition game with the Iroâ€" quois Falls Seniors on the latter‘s way back from the Sault, the Trapâ€" pers, North Bay‘s Junior N.O MH.A. team put up a wonderful game of hockey: The final score was 7 to 6 in favour of the Falls. According to the report of the game the Trappers actually outskated and outchecked the Semiors in the first period and by usâ€" ing combination â€" and following in every shot they tallied three goals in five minutes and led 3 to 1 at the inâ€" terval. In the second period the Falls tallied 4 and the Trappers 1. Two of the scores are credited to bad judagment on the part of Bingham, who was enticed away from the nets, the Falls scoring on an open goal. In the third period the Juniors proved a real surprise. While the Falls had more shots the Trappers broke even on the goals. Young Gauthier was a regular sensation. Apparently he was out to show his brother (Seout) lhow to play hockey. He gtepped rightâ€"into the team from his old home ‘town. Lowery was a good second |\choice, and the whole team of Trapâ€" |pers, for that matter, deserve the createst credit. Maracle did not ; | play, ‘being sick in bed. Clarence â€"| Boucher played clean hockey but was )lroasted by the crowd just the same. â€" |\ Renault, in goal for the Falls, did not prove a stonewall man.

She was troubled by the snow in‘ face and water in her eyes, and took off her mitten to clear her eyes. She was unable to get her mitten on again and in the meantime her hand became frostâ€"bitten. ‘ Luckily she was near, home and her mother was on the lookâ€"out for her youngster and gave prompt and proper treatment and also had her taken later to the hosâ€" pital where she is making excellent recovery. The child will not suffer any serious consequences from her trying experience. PH} "rance, Bellefemlle.
