Kapo’knsing fAdopted It. Kapuskaalng and other teams of the North adapted “box lacrosse" in recent years. but. for some reason or another the game has not achieved the popu- larity that many thought it might. Lacrosse itself dld not get much popu- larity in the North. It is true that Tlmmlns had a good lacrosse team some years ago and there was an equally good one at Schumacher and for a time it looked as. 11' the game would achieve very great popularity in the camp and, perhaps, spread all over the North. It was certamly rouslm: great interest and games at Timmln‘s Then as suddenly as the game started It dropped.

A: a mater of fact the real reason ahv the greater part of the supporters of the game dropped away so suddenly seemed to be due to the belief that the popularity of the game had been used to achieve other pur- poses than’thme of sport. It was claimed at the time that two of the mm who had come to the camp and talcu particular interest in the revival of lacrosse here were special agent“. for the enforcement of the Ontario Temperance Act. Colour was given to this cplnlon by the fact that the chief of police at Timmins was a very ardent lacrosse fan at that time. The rumour as to the men being police agents gain- ed cansiderable currency at the time and lacrosse enthusiasts did not like the idea in any way. The result seem- ed to be that interest in lacrosse flagged and the game was drowned. This seemed to be a great pity at the time and appears so still. for whether the men in question were pblice agents or not, and whether they were using la- crosse connections to secure convic- tions, all this had nothing at all to do with the game of lacrosse. nor did it effect lacrosse players in any way. de- votees of the game having no reason to fear the law either in regard to liquor or anything else. The fact remains, however, that lacrosse was dropped, and since that time there has been little effort made here to revive it. In the last couple of years. however. the game of “box lacrosse" has achiev- ed much popularity in the South, and there has been effort made to estab- lish it in the North. This effort ap- parently met with considerable success in Kapuskasing and other towns- of the North. Plans were suggested last year for having box lacrosse taken up at a‘number of centres in the North and having an hiter-town box lacrosse league something on the style of the or‘chern Ontario Football Association or the Northern Ontario Hocke ' As- sociation. The latest town to suggest “box lacrosse” as a game to be adopted is the town of New Liskeard. In Tim- mlns the difficulty is that there are so many different sports and sporting as- sociations that it is hard to see how another could be organized. Hockey is the great winter sport here. with curl- ing probably equalling it in attraction to peeple in general. In summer, foot- ball has been one of leading sports in recent years, though baseball has still a big appeal. Golf, of course, in its own circle holds the interest of increas- ing numbers of maple, while other sports also have their ardent followers. Bowling has a big grip‘on a large num- ber here during the winter season, THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO THE CAR I’D LEKE TO OWN!” The new low prices of the various DeSoto models are as follows: Business Coupe, 8975; Two-door Sedan, 8975; Coupe (with rumble seat),' $1025; 4-door Sedan, $1055; Roadster (with rumble seat), 81065; Custom 4â€"door Sedan, $1145; 7-Passenger Sedan, 81260.

Tennis is another spzrt that has more Yoliowers than people gener- ally realize. Timmins had a rugby football team here for a season or two but the interest was apparently not great enough to warrant its c:ntinu- ance. Of course. the growth cf the popularity of softball has been very marked in Timmins in recent years. but there are many who believe that a revival of senior baseball in town would have notable effect on the softball in- ter-est. the opinion being that baseball would soon overshadow softball if senior ball once struck its stride again. In the matter of spurts. however. the tastes of the people vary at different times and in different places and it is always diflicult to foretell just what will happen in regard t: any sport under any given circumstances. On account cf this fact the success of any attempt to introduce “box lacrosse" would de- pend upon many factors that would remain to be definitely determined. If a number of Northern towns all start- ed box lacrosse at the one time there would be a good chance or it achieving a considerable measure of papularity. The more towns taking it up the more the chances for success in each. New Liskeard might set a fashion in the North by adopting box lacrosse. The result would remain to be seen later. In discussing the question last week The New Liskeard Speaker said:â€" "Under the guise of “box lacrosse” Canada's great national game is again coming into its own, and already scores of Ontario towns are reviving a game which used to flourish in hundreds of places in pre-war days. There was a time when the O.L.A. was a rival of the O.H.A. so far as membership was con- cerned, the one sport being the sum~ mer sport for the boys as the other is now the winter attraction. However, thewar drained many of Ontario's la- crosse centres of practically all avail- able lacrosse pflayers, same towns send- ing over almost their entire club mem- bership. the result being that, the younger boys became interested in other affairs. “During the past few years some of the “old-timers" have been very active in their efforts to revive the grand old game, and in this they appear to have been meeting with considerable suc- cess. Some genius thought out an ab- breviated form of lacrosse, in which seven men compete on each team. as compared with the twelve formerly used in lacrosse. The playing field was whllc basketball 3 also popular. The recent badminton tournament at Schu- macher gave a surprising illustration used in lacrosse. The playing ANDUP 19.0 B.

The Canadian boy buys 10 hockey sticks for every baseball bat, according to the official book, but perhaps he finds it easier to cut the latter from a hickory sapling.

Professional hockey players many of whom were formerly star la- crosse players. have done much to make the new game a popular one. so that now the boys are turning their atten- tion almost exclusively to box lacrosse. “Many towns in Northern Ontario have joined issue with the Old Ontario towns and in but a year or two it would appear that lacrosse will be play- ed in all parts of the province. As a companion game to hockey. and one well calculated to keep the young ath- lete in condition. lacrosse is without an equal. "Now. what‘s the matter with New Liskeard boys getting into the big game? There is lots of material here for the makings of a strong team. and there are many old-time lacrosse play- ers and fans who would be pleased to help the boys with advice and finances.

Where new borders or beds are to be made or vacant areas to be filled, it is usually better to have these areas spaded in the fall as this facilitates the preparation of a fine seed bed and early planting, both of which are important for best results.

When one desires a real home, plant- ing of the grounds is not a minor con- sideration but one which deserves the best thought and careful attention. In planning of the home grounds, flowers Annual Flowers for Northern Ontario At the Dominion Experimental Sta- tion, Kapuskasing, Ontario, it has been found there are quite a. number of an- nual flowers which are hardy, easily grown. and do particularly well in this climate. Among’the best of those tried for direct outdoor planting are: Aly”- sum. Calendula, Candytuft, Clarkia, Eschscholtzia, Larkspur, Mignonctte, Nasturtium. Portulaca, Poppy, Sweet Sultan. Tagetes, Virginian Stock and Sweet Peas. In addition to the above there are others which are usually sown during the latter part of April in the green-' house and then transferred to flats! when the true leaves appear. After a gradually hardening off until about the end of June they are transplanted to the borders or clumps. At this time. the danger of late frosts is over and the plants grow and give excellent bloom until late autumn. The follow- ing have been grown for a number of years and have given good resultsz'.

Just at the present moment the town looks its worst. Backyards at this time of year, and even some front yards do not look very well at this time of year. But later on Tim- mins will again be a town of lawns and gardens and flowers; It is to be hoped that this year will even exceed past years in this respect. There is no expenditure that gives such notable returns in appearance and satisfaction as the very small outlay necessary for improved home surroundings.
