"It was a hard game to lose, but a dandy game to watch." said The Advance. Angus Campbell refereed the game which was unfortunately rather rough in spots.

Mr. Armstrong represents a group of Oxford County men who have had long and successful experience in the dairy business. Their idea is to establish a large dairy business in or near Timmins, with an office in town, and thus supply all the town and disâ€" trict with pure, fresh milk. There would be a daily delivery of milk in town, and also milk and cream could be secured at the dairy office for any caring to call. Mr. Armstrong said that the dairy would be conducted on the most approved and sanitary lines and kept strictly modern and upâ€"toâ€"date in every respect. Special emphasis was given by him to the "pure milk" idea. ‘"The milk we will sell," he said, "will always be found to pass the closâ€" est tests." ‘The proposed new dairy A wire from New York to The Adâ€" vance ten years ago gave the informaâ€" t‘on that the Dome directors had orâ€" dered reâ€"payment of capital to the extent of $1.00 per share, payable April 20th, 1922, to shareholders of record March 3ist. The Advance noted that the auection of reâ€"payment of capital by the Dome had been under adviseâ€" ment for some time. It was to have no effect on dividends. but was to be straight return on capital investment. The payment was to total $447,660.00. Ten years ago there were plans conâ€" sidered here for a big dairy business for Timmins. In referring to the matâ€" ter at the time The Advance said:â€" "Mr. W. L.
