We have had several events where chickens were the prizes, and these chickens made a very useful prize, as well as a toothsome prize. There will be many interesting features at this stagette, particulars of which will be announced later. But bear the date in mind (March 20th and a Friday at that) so save your pennies.

That is one thing we do is settle accounts, and the only acâ€" counts we cannot settle are the â€"acâ€" counts that are not in on time. For the benefit of the business men with whom we do business I would again reâ€" mind them that all aczcounts are settlâ€" ad on the second Thursday of each month and the secretaryâ€"treasurer would like to have the accounts in at ‘east the day before. Last month one busine:« house mailed statement to 3x 1068 instead of 1059 and I did not receive this statement until the third Thursday of the month, which was too late. So, as a reminder, get the acâ€" »sunts in before the 2nd Thursday of each month, and remember the box number 1059.

The ladies made all present warmly welcome, and a fine programme had been arranged for their _ enjoyment. The proceedings opened with a Paul Jones, with Fred Kitcher as M.C. for the night. Mr. Somers sang in fine style ‘"The Songs My Mother Sang to Me" which was encored and he obliged with a step dance which was equally well received. Military twoâ€"step and Old Country waltz followed. A vocal solo by Mrs. Gay was well rendered and an insistent encore given. Mrs. Gay sang "I am Blue" and "Just Aâ€"Wearying for You" both of which met with popular apâ€" proval. A squars dance and the Cirâ€" cassian Circle made things hum for a time this being followed by vocal solos by Mrs. Stroud, "Kiss Waltz" being her first number which was loudly applaudâ€" ed, the responding solo being "Dancâ€" ing With Tear: in My Eyes." Myrs. Stroud sang in excellent voice and was the hit of the evening. "Musical Arms" and cigarette contests were the only games during the evening. Chocolates and cigarettes as well as refreshments were served dGduring the evening. A pleasant surprise was given to Mrs. S. Wheeler, the first Past President of the Daughters of England lodge, when she was made the recipient of the P.P. jewel. Mrs. Goode made the presentaâ€" ticn and Mrs. Wheeler made suitable reply. W.

Daughters of England Ho‘d Pleasant Social Despatches from ‘"~aronto indicate the safe arrival there of the three North Cobalt boys who set out to ski from the North to Toronto on the one pair of skiis. The trip attracted considerable attention in view of the fact that the long hike was made by the'Svoung men travelling together on the one set of skiis. The despatches referred to the boys as triâ€"tandem skiiers and used other similar expressions to> indicate the novelty of the mode cf travel, One of the despatches from Toronto put the matter as follows:â€"‘"Eleven days for thres youths to cover 350 miles on one pair of skis, is the accomplishment oi Ken.
