The Advance twenty years ago says ~ thought, in other words, that if a team played in a local league it must enter the large league as a complete team, or none of i.:3 members could play in the bigger league‘s team. Under such a plan, if there were a town team and a team, for instance, then Timâ€" mins zould not select players from koth the town and the teams, thouzh the Hollinger is part of the town. In reply to this idea, it was "Scme were of the optnion that if there were a lozal league, including for exâ€" amp‘e, Timmins and Hollinger teams it would not be allowable to pick playâ€" ers firom the two teams to enter in the definite could te dons in the matter of the Iccal league.

We do not have to exâ€" pect anything from each csther. We recognize this We are two peoples. They shall live. One cannot annihilate the other.
