lose its oharm we suggest he carry a rab bits foot another time although it was raining heavily outside there was a good crowd of s and the ice was in fair condition this game contained a little of everything speed stlckhandling and heavy bodychecking were mixed up with an kinds of aggressiveness there was no score in the first period al though georgetown had the better of the play and banged shot after shot at tbe bolton net after 30 minutes of snappy play the gong sounded to relieve tbe pressure with still no score shortly after the opening of the sandwich reel georgetown banged home a counter which tied the round up and put both teams on even gdound mcnauy who played bril liantly all evening was responsible for this goal fast hockey and marvel lous goaltending was exhibited in the remainder of the period but no more scoring was done the third stanza was a renitlon of the second with both teams pressing hard to score and it was not till on a faceoff in f omt of the bolton net did ken richardson manage to bang in a good one this put the local boys one goal up georgetown then played a more defensive game land it was not until the dying moments of the full titne did bolton on a bullet like shot which glanced oft alootfa pads and hopped into tbe net score it was a gift for bolton there was a deep sigh from the crowd heard even above the cheers of the bolton supporters as the fans took their seats tor the overtime although the teams had had 60 minutes of strenuous hockey they were still game and gave the fans thirty minutes more of speedy puck- chasing it was not all the hut few seconds that bolton managed to score the wlrming goal it was counted on a nice play by the visitors when the georgetown defense was left wide open this goal put the local boys out bolton

simul taneously but the older man was off his knees and into bed in a twinkling the younger mans prayer was long when he rose he felt caller on to chide the older man for the brevity of his prayer the old mans reply was both blunt and rebukinjt i keep pray ed up young man i keep prayed upl theres a point in this story for those who employ advertising to sell their goods and service it is keep continual contact by the agency of published advertising with those from whom you want business many sellers lapse into long per iods of silence then when busi ness is bad they may burst into advertising hoping that there will be immediate and earnest atten tion on the part of those address ed buyers are attentive and respon sive to those who maintain steady contact witli them via published advertising to them they are friendly when in the market for what the seller offers to him they turn easily expect antly confidently and responsive- ly the advertising which costs least because of a minimum of buyer resistance and a maximum of goodwill and responsiveness is that which is published continu ously contrariwise the advertis ing which costs most is that which bursts into sjght suddenly and 4n- termittenly bice the fires of vesuvius it costs moat because it dosent get the required re sponse in the timehmit set t heres another little story about prayer a story with a point a small boy told his sunday school teacher that he never said his prayers in the morning but al ways at night and why not in the morning asked the teacher why said the small boy any fellow whos any good can look after himself in the day time many sellers are very much like this small hoy many are worse many advertise only when dark ness begins to fall over their busi ness many dont advertise at all the right idea is of course to keep on distributing among buy ers information about ones oods and wants at all times thus do the leaders silence signifies seller-indiffer- buyer in greatest nirmbers go where they are invited to go r o i j nv x- x sm w 7 v v
