I knew there had been something wrong with him for some time, but I could not get him to tell me what it was. Finally he confessed be was tired and sore all over. I pale him : er bed. Next roing he insis: upon going to work although he was aa but well. I knew that his trouble was partly due to worry because for some months before he had been out of work. This put us #0 heavily in debt that the grocer and butcher refused to give us more credit. It was being out of work that worried my husband.

I. rugby team went to Port Hope Saturday where they met with a 16 to 10 defeat at the hands of the Trinity College players, The Peterborough boys put up a great game in spite of the fact that they were playing under the Big Little Four rules for the first time after having done all their practicing un- der the 0. R, F. U. regulations. The showing of the Petes would indicate that they will make a strong bid for the local group of the O. R. F. U. Trinity had it nearly all their own way in the first half, getting nine points to two for the P, C. I, Three of the Trinity points were made by kicks, and it is evident that the Port Hope school is developing some fine players in this phase of the game. They got one toch and converted it- in good shape. Good work on the part of Fanning and Mulholland prevented them from piling up a much higher score. In the second half the Peterbor- spent a few days with her mother, Mrs. Skinner, Mr. Schoenau, of Oshawa, has op- ened a tin shop over Spencer's gar- age, We wish Mr, Schoenau every success, Mrs. George Jones, who has heen supplying as teacher in Raglan Pub- lic school until a teacher was pro- cured, {is giving such satisfaction that they have asked her to stay till Xmas. We are sorry to report that Mrs. Lockwood, who is quite ill at her sis- ter's, Mrs, Dunn's, is not improving as speedily as her many friends would wish, In spite of the wet weather on Tuesday afternoon, a very large crowd attended R. T, Michael's sale of farm stock and implements, when good prices were realized for every- thing. Wm. Maw, of Whithy, was auctioneer, Anniversary a Big Success The anniversary of the Methodist Church here, held on Sunday and Monday, October 8 and 9, was a suc- cess in every way, fittingly reward- ing the efforts of those in charge, Attendance at the Sunday services Fourteen Teams Entered Indoor Baseball League Schedule Drawn Up Monday Evening--Use Regulation Twelve Inch Ball A largely attended and enthusuas- tic meeting of the Executive and Board of Management of the Oshawa Indoor Baseball League was held in the armories last night to consider entries and draft a schedule. Four- teen entries were on hand accom- panied by the necessary fee of $10 and all were accepted. The addi- tional teams to those published pre- viously are: Bankers, Dreadnoughts, and Y. M. C. A, A single schedule will be played each team meeting the other teams only once owing to the large number of entries. Three games will be staged each night and on two nights a week, the first game commencing at 7, the second at 8 and the third at 9 o'clock. Ground rules were made to suit the conditions of the armories and these will be printed on schedules which will be issued in the course of a few days. It was decided to use the 12 inch raised seam ball and to be gov- was splendid, the church being filled. The sermons were preached by Rev. Mr, Latimer, of Myrtle, who deliver- ed two very powerful messages, which were greatly appreciated by the large audiences, The tea and concert in the Church on Monday evening drew a crowd that packed the edifice to overflow- ing. The chicken pie supper served in the hasement, was delightful, and more than pleased the large crowd of between four and five hundred persons, who kept the ladies of the church busy for over three hours. The ladies of the Brooklin Methodist Church ably upheld their reputation as hostesses, and though they were tested to the utmost, everyone was served with an ample repast. Every seat in the beautifully dec- orated church auditorium was filled for the concert which followed, and many extra seats had to be brought in to accommodate the crowd. The pastor, Rev. E. W. Rowland, spoke a few words of introduction and ap- preciation, and turned the program over to the Arcadian Concert Com- pany of Whithy. The company con- sisted of Miss Hildred McColl, so- prano; Miss Helen Stapleford, Violin- ist; Miss Hazel Kenny, pianist; John Parker, entertainer, and W. D. Dykes, tenor, and combined, they gave a most enjoyable program of over an hour and a half duration. Included in the program were sev- eral choruses, duetts, trios, etc., as well as individual numbers by each member of the company, all of whom met with hearty encores. Miss MeColl has a particularly sweet and mellow voice, and with her pleasing personality she was an immediate favorite. Of Miss Staple- ford little need be said, beyond the fact that she amply sustained the splendid reputation she has already established in Whitby and vicinity, and again proved herself to be an artist of exceptional ability. Miss Kenny, too, as pianist, maintained her deservedly high reputation as a musician. Mr. Parker's humorous selections were sufficient to keep his audience in constant good humor and laughter, and still further en- hanced his standing as a humorist and entertainer. Mr. Dykes' rich voice greatly delighted and pleased the audience, his choice of selections being very fine. On the whole the evening was an unqualified success. Rev. Mr. Row- land announced the proceeds as hav- ing amounted to $220. SALEM Mr. and Mrs. Moffat, of, Orono, visited Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Squair on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Gilfer visited in Bow- manville on Sunday and attended the Presbyterian reopening. Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Squair and Kyle, Mr. and Mrs. Moffat of Orono, were guests of the late Misses Stey- ens on Sunday. Mrs. F. A. Werry and her mother Mrs. Hooper visited in Orono on Thursday. Several families availed them- selves of the opportunity of hearing Rev. Prof. J. W. MacMillan D.D., of Toronto, on Sunday at the Presby- terian Church, where he delivered two very scholarly addresses. The ough boys showed a greater famili arity with the Trinity tactics. They | had evidently succeeded in master. | ing the changes in the rules, for] they did much better work than in| the first half and even had a little | the better of the play, scoring eight | points against six for the Port Hop- ers. Peterborough got a touch when | one of the Trinity halves missed a | long punt of Mulholland's which | went behind the touch line, where | Fielding grabbed the ball ana fell | on it, Mulholland converted it in| good shape and the P. C, I. got an- other point on a rouge. Trinity then went over for another touch, mak- ing the score 15 to 10, | The following were the Peterbor- | ough representatives: Johnston, | Stacey, Hay, Outram, Cowan, Cole, Fleming, Bookhout, Stevens, East- | wood, Brown, Fanning, Mulholland, | E. Rye, W. Rye and Bradburn.

A dele- gation representing six girls teams was present requesting hours when they might use the armories, They were referred to Major Chappell, second in command 'of the Regiment for further information. Port Hope Guide: Mayor Hanna whose activities the past few weeks have assured Belleville of an abun- dant fuel supply; M. O. Herity whose untiring efforts as head of the chamber of commerce has brought several flourishing industries to the Bay of Quinte town, both take second place today to the young Indian from Verona, John Williams. Fuel supplies and new factories are of minor importance to that great and glorious victory achieved at Peter- boro on Friday when the Indian warrior made the much tooted Hill crests of Toronto bite the dust and sent the Belleville team another on the championship ladder. Jim Jenkins said there was always a little extra glory in beating a Peterboro team, but now when they turn back a hand picked team from Toronto, oh boy! And then the crowd cheered again. Magistrate Thinks Safety Zones Could Be Established Here Pleading guilty to a breach of the Motor Vehicles Act, to wit, passing a standing street car in his automo bile, David Graham was fined $5 costs in police court this morning. Magistrate Hind stated that he was inclined to deal leniently with the defendant because of the cir- cumstances in connection with the case, D. A. J. Swanson appeared for the defendant. According to the Magistrate the time has come when safety zones should be, marked out on the streets of Oshawa for citizens to follow the same as in every city of any size. Furthermore, he stated, the Oshawa Street Railway should have signs showing where the cars stop and the cars should not be al- lowed to stop in the middle of a block to Jet passengers alight. A motorist could not know when a ear is liable to stop under the present conditions, the cadi contended. If the Senegalese wants to meet our Mr. Dempsey, he will have to come over here. There is a war on over there.-- Detroit News, {has sailed finding a wind that would blow col-| or into his drug-eyed face, charae- | THEATRES THE FOUR HORSEMEN The Four Horsemen as presented at the Regent Theatre last night proved to be a colossal Photoplay and the return engagement a triumphal one, Long before the curtain rose on the screen, standing room only was the order. The Concert rendered by the Oshawa Symphony Orchestra enter- tained the large audience from 7.30 to 8.00 o'clock, Each num on the programme was enthusiastically applauded, The Four Horsemen should play to crowded houses for the remainder of the engagement.
