H. Carlisle made his soul- shaking statement "A man should wonk for a dollar a day and save maney"? Do you remember when the "Coleman" house on Duke Street opposite the South Ward School grounds was built? The date plate which is still aven the front door says 1855. Do You nememben when there was a factory called Portcr's Foundry at the south west corn- er of King and Liberty Streets where the Goodyear houses are 120W? When Peter Dayman had a carpenter shop and living quart- ers at the corner of Ontario and Durham Streets? Later a num- ber a! South Wand boys (mysel! included) had it for a club house. Then Roy "Bar" Dilling opened a grocery store there which is still, I believe, in operation. Do you remember "Fneddy"l Couch and his famous greeting? No matter if it was raining cats and dogs, a howling blizzard, hotter than the hubs of hell or colder than the South Pale - when he saw you approaching he always batted anc thousand with "Fine day". Do you rememben when Carl Kent was same "punkins" among the cycling fraternity because he rode a Columbia chainless bi- cycle? Speaking of bicycles, do you remember the tandem owned by the Dr. Lestock Reid family? He and his daughters used ta go for an outing when the doctor al- ways took the rear' saddle on account o! failing eyesight. Do you rememben when Wil- lard Caldwell ran a livery where Palmer Matons ,naw stands and genial Walter Hall, late night constable, was his finst lieuten- ant. Do yau remember when Johnniy Griffith nan a tailar shop on the south side o! King St., cetween Ontario and Brown Strets? Johnny contributed heav- ily toward the support o! St. John's Anglican Church, with the strict provisa that no anc must know the donor. One norning the minister thanked Johnny from the pulpit for a donation. He was se incenscd hat he neyer entered the Church again and transferred his ne- igiaus affiliations ta the Salva- ion Army and brought along his in whistlc as well. Do you nemember the Nonton boys who lived in the South Ward? Tom was a sailor befone the mast, Rance, for years be- are his retirement was a con-i [uctor on the Toronto-Montreals end of the crack "Internationalc Limited" (Montreal - Chicago) which is anc o! the fastest trains in North Amenica today. Albert was a captain on one o! ther Great Lakes boats running be-t tween Cleveland and Buffalo.t [e made his home in the latterr ity, where he stiil lives. I CASE King St. 'N. - Do you remember when Billy Qumn operated a "box baIl" alley and Jack Cale had a barber shop opposite The Statesman office? His shop is now in the Jury Block with son Fred as his assistant. Next door was t he Seymour Power Co. (forerunner of the Hydro). An early local manager was a Kingston boy, Leo Barry, who was a great lov- er of birds who hit on the novel idea for thein comfort on cold winter nights. The company had an immense electnic sign pawer- cd by hundreds of low candle power bulbs. He left the sign on ahi night in severe weather and the birds soan found a warm place at night. When the wind1 was in the north or west they roosted on the east side and when it was 'in the opposite direction they used the west side. Do you remember when a certain local inan (now deceas- cd) was dragged through the snow and slush on a town street with a nope around his ankles, for "scabbing" in the Organ Factory strike? When John Dow Fluker, now of Brockville, carried 6n a verb- al warfare wlth the trainmen on the C.N.R. express trains? Jack was working for the Canadian Express and mèt all trains. Af ter the usual social greetings, some-1 anc would ask John if he had received any promotion in "Coxey's Army" since they last saw him. John who was given to ratundity, grew even more so as he informed his tormenters that their ancestars lived in trees and hung on by their caudal extremities (tails). Mrs. Fluker is the former Gertrude Cox of Ontario St. John always said his chief dlaim ta fame was that he and Rockefeller had the same initiais.

If you didn't sec what you wanted, just ask Dolph; he knew where it was and produced it from some corner. He told me once that he neyer had a stock- taking in his life and would flot know where to start. Pnior ta that Dave Davis had a shoe store there and a repair shop at the rear and his cobbler was the late Sam Allen. The re- pair shop was the Woods Senate of today. Some of the habitues were Sam Hill, Bob Adair, Bill Jennings, Bobby Treleaven andi others whose names I cannot recail. Do you remember when The Statesman was an 8-page paper with hand-set type? It is a far cry from then t o the present snappy, up to the minute 18-page paper which is the envy of many editors in Canada. The versatil- ity of the James gene&ations is shown by the class of the present day Statesman. You and your forebea7rs have brought the paper along to a high stage of riewsincss, town booster, and no item is too small or too cum- bersome for your efficient staff to build a story around. But methînks, George me bhoy, that the 18 pages will of necessity have to be increased ta 20 pages to take care of present demands.

Dean Bill: I have been instructed by the Bowmanville-Oroto Com- bines Hockey Club to >ité.oU again to explam oeu., ecLs Ni to carry on in the playoffi "f we are successful in defeating Lindsay in our present series. (1) Two referees for tne playoffs in the Lakeshone group is now assured. (2) *We have had at least one member of our Executive at all games in the Lakeshore group since the Cobourg fracas and the referces have donc a fine job. (3) A recent letter toa aU Ontario Hockey Clubs by the President stating O.HA. future policy is exactly what we be- hieve has got ta be carried out to get hockey back on a high plane. In conclusion, we are pleased ta support the Ontario Hockey Association now that there is strong indication that prompt and firm action is likely to be taken against any individual or club whose conduct is detnimen- tal to the game.
