The Club numbers over thirty young men and is under direction of Conductor E. R. Bowles, who has had large experience and great success in training young people in music. The iprogram consisted of choruses, quar- tets, duets, readings, musical mono- logues that greatîy pleased the large audience assembled. Special mention should be m.ade of the choruses, the quartet by rMessrs. Walker, Agnew, Brown and Cayley, whose voices blended well and who'proved high class entertain- ers. Mr. R. G. Agnew, as a reader, antd Mr. M. A. Cayley in his 'musical mon- Lologues gave much satisfaction. The up-to-date Grand Opera Act was well presented and cleverly put on,. even to the lady (?) who carried out the part with the others in a way that captivated and convulsed the audi- ence. The debate by the Parish Council on "The Town Pump" was rather amusing. As entertainers the various members are capable of putting up a popular program with ample variety to satisfy any audi- ence. The Brotherhood under whose auspices they appeared is to be con- gratulated. LEADERS AND OLDER BOYS' CONFERENCE Bowmanville, Saturday, February 25 Say fellows! Get your thinking caps on; let your imaginations rua_ riot for a f ew minutes and see if you can imagine two hundred boys sing- ing the songs they like best, yelling the yells that they have made up for the occasion, putting on stunts of their own choosing, and in general having the tîme of their lives! Would you like to bc sick when there was anything quite so enjoyable as that going the rounds? Well 1 should say not!1 Weîl that's the onîy thing that needs to keep you from doing those very things in the Bowmanville Meth- odist Church on Saturday, February 25th. The Leaders and Aduits OnIy Ses- sion of the Conference will be held in the morning. That ought to give you plenty of time to get your Sat- urday work done so that you can have the rest of the day to yourself. Then the Boys' Session begins at 1.30 p. m. and continues tîli 8.00 p. m.. But we're not going to listen to speeches all that time! l'Il say we're not! The greater part of that time we're going to be in action, doing the very things that the great C. S. E. T. Program teaches us to do. WHAT! You don't knowwhat the C. S. E. T. is? Well I should say it was about time you woke up! There are just about 12,000 teen-age boys in the Province of Ontario who could tell yeu. Don't let us be behind all the rest of the Province. Give this program the once-over, and see if we are not right in prom- ising you the best day's sport you ever have had. But remember that we will be crowded at the Conference and especially at the banquet, se that if you want te get in on this good, time, you m-ust REGISTER AT ONCE. THOMSON KNITTING CO. WINS AT PARIS Six car loafis of Bowmanville boosters journeyefi by autos to Paris Thiurs Feb. 16, to witness the hockey game between Thomson Knitting Co. and Paris inter- mediates. The lhappy caravan includefi Messrs. R. E. Wilson, F. C. Pethick, P. P. Newhouse, J. 1. Bundy, C. Milne, G. C. Paterson, W. Billings, E. Varcoe, W. E. Sugrue, Art. Densem, Scotty Wright, Henry Buchanan, James IEowfiler, R. Maxwell, Haroldi Boyes, Geo., Parkin, Dan Dancey, besides the players. Brantford Expositor has this to, say about the game: In a particularly fast game of hockey the Bowmanville teamn defeated the Paris intermefliates by 5 goals to 2. The game was only an ex- hibition one, but fiespite that fart the spectators were troated to one of the best gamnes seen here this season. The visitors are a well-balanced team. They are fast skaters, goodi stick banfilers, andi play a nice comibination, and are a creflit to the town they represent. The Par's boys also played a good game but the 'visitors were a littie better The game started promptly on time and with keen ice play was lightning fast. Bowmanville was the first to score, which they did in a few minutes time. From then on play was very even, neither team haveng the advantage, until just hefore time Paris tiefi the score. The second period was nearly ail Bow- mnanville, and only the goofi work of rha less
