Flesherton 4, Dro'ore 3 Dromore made Flesherton Semi- Pro, team work extra hai'd on Thurs- day evening last to win in the last minute of play by the score 4-3 For almost three parts of the game the play was in the Flesherton end of the rink, and most of Flesherton's goals were scored on fast bi'eaking. Dromore opened the scoring when B- Gibson counted after three minutes of play and the score was evened when Smith netted the puck on a solo effort a second before time was called. At the end of the second period the score was tied again when each team count- ed twice M. Piper and Smith for Flesherton and two goals by L. Gib- son. "Dutch" Patton put the local team ahead to win the game when he took a pass from Smith in front of the goal with one minute to go. A play progressed during the game the ice became harder to play on and paesin^ plays failed to click, and over-skating the rubber was common. Dromore â€" Goal. F. Cowan; de- fence. Arnill and B.

HE TOLD THE TRUTH AT LAST An old man and his wife were cele- brating their golden wedding. Friends, on every hand, congratulated them. One hardy individual asked them the recipe for married harmony. The old man said, with a twinkle in his eye and a smile: "Well, we did The annual meeting of Mount Zion have one rule. When I came home church was held on Thursday after- cross, tired and out of sorts, I hung noon. The pastor, Rev. Bushell was my hat on a certain peg- My wife chairman.

Well lightning had nothing on the speed in the game between Flesherton and Shelburne on Tuesday night in Flesherton arena. It was one of the most sensational games ever played on local ice. Tht game opened up almost as soon as the teams stepped on the ice for play, with Fisher slamming one in for the speedy Shelburne boys. Shelburne certainly had it all over the local boys the first chukker, slamming in three before the close of the period, McCauley and Ii"svin being the other two counters, and Flesherton bringing up the rear of a sorry beginning with but one S Smith. The local boys may consider themselves lucky they had the help of Ferris in goal, who played one of the best games a goalie has ever been known to play on Flesherton ice, one shudders to think of what the score might have been but for his wonder- ful goal tending. Shots that seemed impossible to save .seemed to be right up his alley. The second period how- ever changed the outlook somewhat, as the local boys held the visiting team to a scoreless niffhtmare, as they after much hard work and breathtak. ing close calLs brought up their end within hearing by one goal to end the second period ,3 â€" 2 for Shelburne. The third period was surely a real replica of the San Francisco earth- quake, the goals just seemed to open Up and swallow the pucks, first Mc- Cutcheon breaks the twines, only to be followed up by Rands for Shel- burne, then Flesherton followed up with another by Smith just as the bell went to end the third period. The crowd were all agitter. what would happen in the overtime? Well there sure was plenty happened, the boys went wild, nothing could hold them, first a rush on one goal, then one on the other, the tension had to break. and Patton, who seemed to take the .skates right off a Shelburne player a« he rifled one between his feet wa* deigned to break it as he brought Flesherton ahead by one counter. Could they hold it? That was tb* ((uestion. Well they did, and not only that but added one more, when Smith caught the Shelburne goalie playing defense, he decided to play goal, and naturally just took the puck in with him to put Flesherton ahead by two, just as the bell rang to end the over- time and the game.
