THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE WEDNESDAY, MAJ^Cfl 1, 1933 Tuxis Boys Wod Game Trimmed Their Dads 11-10 In Exciting Hockey Game Friday Night The Tuxis lads in town challenffed their dads to a hockey game and it was played in the rink Friday night It was a hard-fottght game through- out, but the youngsters came out vic- torious U-10. Three penalties were handed out by referee, Geo. Boyd, the dads taking all of them. Lome Chabot (Frank Lea veil) " played a great game in goal stopping six shots, while Happy Day (Geo. McTavish) and King Clanoy (Rev. Scott) shone on defence. Red Homer (F. J. Thurs- ton) who usually plays defence had to take centre position and he was flanked by Gracie (Alf. Down) and ConacEer (G. J. Bellamy). Both Gracie and Conacher had an off -night and lacked their old speed and stick handling ability. "Mine Boy" Alex. Levinsky (Frank Duncan) was also used as a sub on the forward line and his Scotch tam-o'-shanter mixed well with his Jewish monicker. The kids trotted out two full teams on the ice and were always fresh and rarin' to put it o<^er the old fellows, | called on him which they did. Their players were: Gffo. Watson, Douglas Scott, Frea Pattnn, Delbert Smith, Ted Dixon, Ben I eavell. Burton Bellamy, Ted McTavish, Robin Goldsborough, Tom Banks, Bill Henry and Mack Duncan. There ha,s been another challenge issued by the kids and they will at- tempt to repeat at the next meeting. A Letter From Lady Dufferin THE FARMER'S EDUCATION An outstanding Canadian authority, discussing farming as a vocation rec- ently, included among the essential subjects in the educational prepara- tion for farm work, the followinsr: A thorough training in the use of English: proficiency in mathematics; sufficient commercial training so as to successfully ?arry on his business; practical training, obtained on the farm; a study of agricultural science, including chemisti-y, physics, botany, entomology, bactei'iology. and a thor- ough knowledge of the more practical subjects, such as hTV.".:-l.ure, field crops, live stock, mechanics; and a practical working knowledge of econ- omies and civics. F^- the young woman whose future happiness will be found on the farm he suggested special training in cultural subjects. and in the work of the home, sucr as cooking, sewing, management and hygiene. Knowledge is as necessary to success in farming as in any othei line of business. Two weeks ago The Advance print- ed a short editorial reminiscent of the incumbancy of Lord Dutferin as Governor-General of Canada. With this introduction the following letters will explain themselves and no doubt prove very interesting to all our readers. To Mr. Barry The Advance extends its grateful thanks for his kindness and courtesy. The Stroller's Club, Toronto, February 16th, 1933. Dear Editor, â€" Recently you were good enough to write a nice editorial regarding the Dowager, Countess cl Dutt'erin, which was reproduced^^last evening's "Star." It was to me Het Ladyship recently wrote, and i am sending your editorial to London tha: Her Ladyship may learn of warm friends in Flesherton. You will be interested to know she is still hale and hearty, in spite of her 90 years and the letter I enclose tells of her calling at Canada House in Tralalkar Square on our last Dominion Day. In the autumn Mr. Howard Ferguson told me here how lovely Lady Dufferin was when she Lady Dufferin U still greatly interested in Canada and I know your kindly editorial will p!ei:.-<; her. Her letter will show you hcv splendidly firm her handwriting still is. Lady Dufferin has been oui friend and much of the inspiration ol the Dufferin School Old Boys' Assic- iation for over 30 years. Sincerely, JAMES W. BARRY, Dear Mr. Barry, â€" I have to thank ,vou for newspapers and notices, which are very interesting. On the 1st I Went to Canada House for Dominion Day. Of course I know fev.- of tht present Canadian men and women now, but the day before yesterday I happened to-meet two old friends who knew us at Ottawa. My brother. Col Rowan Hamilton, and I were so pleased to see them. I thank you again very much for your remem- brance of my husband and myself. 1875-1932. LADY DUFFERIN. Down in Newmarket the edict went forth that people on relief must not drive cars, and thirty families then :efused municipal help. Those people apparently had no right to be receiv ing it at any time â€" not because they drove cars, but because if they had enough money to stay off relief leath- er than give up driving a car. they should have had enough so that it wasn't necessary for them to ask foi relief. Proton Trim Midgets Proton Station's crack hockey team of no age limit played the Flesherton midgets on Monday evening and in overtime won the game 6-5. The game was delayed in starting on ac- count of Boyd and Best, 16 and 17 years of age respectively, being con- sidered by the visitors as too big and fast to play. The midgets commanded the play the first two periods by leading 3-1 and 4-2, but in the third added one, while Proton counted three to tie the score. Blackburn in goal for Proton wag a tower of strength and at times batted and booted the puck, as it came from all directions. The visitors were heavier and raore ex- perienced than their opponents and came through in the overtime with the counter to win. These games are real contests and are watched by good crowds.

Special Bargains | IN WALLPAPERS The regular February meeting of Grey Presbytery was held on Tuesday, 21st inst., in Knox United Church, Owen Sound, with Eev. A. D. Cornett, MA., P.D., presiding. The stormy weather, and the condition of the roads, made it impossible for min- isters and laymen, who were living in distant parts of the Presbytery to be present, but there was a good representation from charges near the dty, and where there were railway facilities. Regular routine business occupied the morning session. which was brought to a close with the Devotional Period conducted by Rev. J. W. John- ston, M..A.. of Kilsyth, who L>a.;ci his address on Galatians, chapter 3, verse 1. Immediately after dinner. The Very Reverend James Endicott, D.D., ex- Moderator, and one of the .Secretaries of the Foreign Missij.. Joard of the United Church, addressed the Pres- bytery, taking as his subject, "The Laymen's Appraisal Report of Foreign Missions". In a masterly manner he described the origin of the investi- gation leading up to the Report and the contents of the Report, dwelling particularly upon its doctrinal aspects. Following the address there arose a brisk discussion which proved very illuminating. Dr. Endicott received the thanks of the Presbytery for his "stimulating discussion of the Re- port." Another interesting incident of the afternoon session was the inti-oduc- tion of Mr. John Howard Bowman, a nephew of Rev. A. Laycock, of Hol- land Centre, who is making applica- tion to be received as a candidate for the Christian Ministry. Presbytery gladly granted his request, and wish- ed him every happiness in the work to which he felt called of God to devote his life. The report of the Lommittee on Evangelism and Social Ser\'ice reccm- mended that Presbytery commend the action of the Federal House in re- fusing to make any^ change in the statute re the export of liquor to countries in which the sa'.e of liquor is not legal; that Presbytery strongly object to any change in the Liquor Control .Act that would permit ths sale of beer and wine by the glass; and that Presbytery protest against any change in the Criminal Code, which would permit the conducting of Sweepstakes for the support of hospitals. Presbytery unanimously adopted the report, and requested the committee to make an investiga- tion into the various phases of the matter of gambling and present a report at the May meeting. The following is a digest of the Statistical Report as finally com- pleted: â€" Number of Pastoral Charg- es 37. of Congregations 87. Number I of persons under pastoral oversight 19,464. Number received on profes- sion of faith 309, and by certificate 1S4. Total membership 10,250, an increase of 22. Number of Sunday Schools 81, with an enrollment of 8,190. Number of W'oraan's Mission- ary Societies 90, with a membership of 1.978. Number of Ladies' Aid Societies 62, with a membership of 1,575. Total value of all church property $1,001,883, on which there is only the small indebtedness of $10,925. .Amounts raised for all local purposes apart from Ministers' salaries $51,291. Salaries paid to ministers $53,548. Raised for Missionary and Mainten- ance Fund $21,082. Raised by Wo- man's Missionary Society organiza- tions $10,931. Raised for Conference and Presbytery Funds $1,097. Raised for charitable and religious organiza- tions $1,322. Grand total raised for all purposes $138,486. Included in the above are the following items: -Amount raised by Sunday Schools for all purposes $8,645. .Amount raised by girls', boys' and Young People's Societies $2,514. Amount raised by Ladies' -Aid Societies $12,- 568. Presbytery adjourned at 6.30 p.m. to meet in .Annesley church, Mark- dale, on Tuesday May 2nd. at 10 o'clock a.m. The visitor to Manitoba with vaca- tion days at his disposal is in much | the game position as a youngster in a candy .shop with a hard-won nickel to spend. In both cases there are equally interesting and tempting ways of investing one's capital, but while the youngster's expenditure results in momentary delight that of the visitor to Manitoba will leave long cherished memories, especially .should the steamer trip on lake Winnipeg be taken. It is difficult to leave the city of Winnipeg with its interesting buildings and parks, its art gallery and rauseurn, the Historical Exhibit of liie Hii.'i..-OH 3 Bay Company, and the many ..,l\ and motor trips to outlying points. The stone walls and round- tower bastions of Lower Fort Garry claim their share of attention but the steamer waits by the docks at Selkirk and like time and tide waits for no man. -A fast suburban transit line trans- ports the traveller from Winnipeg to the busy port of Selkirk on the Red liver, headquarters of the fishing .'leets of lake Winnipeg and point ot .3mbarkation for the 300 miie cruise down the lake. All aboard, mooring lines cast off, and after a few hours run the steamer noses its way intc the lower lake. To the left in the distance lie the curving sands of Win- nipeg Beach and far to the right those of Grand Beach and Victoria Beach, delightful resorts easily reach- ed from the city. On sails the steam- er past the wild promontory of Bull- head, in and out among the islands of the Narrows, and through that channel to the open water of the up- per lake. The vastness of this island sea is impressed on the traveller as- the vessel glides across the lake. -At times the course leads close inshore at others far out where no trace ot land lies either to starboard or to port. On the vessel steams in the wake of the great canoes of the Ind- ians and the broad-beamed craft manned by hardy crews which in olden days transported furs and sup- plies to and from the old fort of Norway House at the northern ex- tremity of the lake. A day is spent in this romantic spot, then the return is made to Selkirk along a new course, with new ports of call and new scenes of interest. The round trip takes one week, but if time is limited there are week-end trips from Selkirk which are equally pieasant. Whether one travels in solitary state or with a select party of friends the cruise on lake Winnipeg is sure to linger in tht memory as a most refreshing and en- joyable outing. K MEAl-TM SERVICE OF THE CAMAOIAN UEDlCAI. ..SSOCIATION AND t.lFe INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA STAYING AWAKE Ontario Plowing Match The Provincial Plowing Match will be held near Owen Sound this com- ing fall, the first time that it has ever been held in Grey County. Var- ious committees are at work prepar- ing the prize list, both for Grey coun- ty competition on the first day and the opening cAnus following, and other problems which are necessary for a successful match. -A connnittee meeting is being held in Owen Sound this Saturday afternoon. Staying awake when you want to do so is one thing, but staying awake when you want to go to sleep is an- other, and it is most annoying. W« are apt to complain and to make a fuss if we lie awake. If our wake- fulness becomes a habit, then we ar« victims of insomnia. To worry about not going to sleep is the surest way to keep awake. U the wakefulness is due to pain or ill- ness, this is a matter of some con- cern, but the healthy normal person suffers no harm from, his failure to go to Sleep promptly. There is no hard and fast rule as to how maeh sle-ep '.s required. The young ana old require more rest than do-.-i r'^e 'jerson who is middle-aged. We should secure sufficient rest so as to be ready to get up at rising- time, even though we may not be anxious to leave our warm and com- fortable beds. Personal experience will determine what the beu-t:me should be in each case, so as to allow for sufficient rest. It is the fear that he will not sleep which keeps the victim of insomnia awake, and it is the worry over not having slept which makes him fpel lired. If su?h a person would not fuss and toss and turn; if he would relax quietly in bed, with mind ana body at rest, he would secure suf- ficient rest even though he slept but little. When the light is turned out, sleep is to be expected, but it should not be sought after. Relaxation and a quiet anticipation of sleep help us to pass the time until we lose our- selves in sleep. If a bad habit is established, it can be broken. The bad habit of staying awake can be overcome by building up a good habit of going to sleep. To do this, a new routine should be started, one which will facilitate and suggest going-'to sleep. A sufficient amount of out-door exercise prepares the body for rest. .A comfortable 'oed, a cool room, quiet and darkness are factors which gen- e-rally are favorable to sleep. A warm drink before going to bed, an interesting but not too exciting book may help. Whatever the routine fol- lowed, any fear of not sleeping must be banished, and any worry .over pos- iUble ill effects of insomnia may be overcome by an appreciation of the fact that ill effects do not occur. The person who looks for si'eep nev- er finds it. The person who lets sleep find him is never troubled with insomnia. S. S.

HICKLING I ONE BUSY FARMER Club Curling Bonspiel The club bonspiel of the Flesherton Curling Club has been held during the past week and on Tuesday even- ing Roy Piper's rink won the right to meet Dr. Murray's rink in the final by winning from Cecil McTavish 11-6. In the preliminary games Murray won from the Wolton rink 9-8, Mc- Tavish from .W. I. Henry with the high score of 16-2, Piper from Wilson 11-9 and Wright from Bennett 8-7 in real close games. In the second round Piper won from Wright 10-9 and Dr. Murray received a bye. Piper then met Cecil McTavish and won easily 11-6. They will now meet the Murray. rink for the championship and this should be a real game as both have a strong rink. The local club will shortly be hosts to the Markdale club in a series of games.

Farmers, generally speaking, are a very busy class of peoyle, but we ven- ture to say that there are none in this locality who are doing a greater am- ount of work this winter than Clar- ence Montag of the fourteenth con- cession of Culross. Clarence has 89 head of cattle in his stables, and he is feeding over half of them for the mar- ket. He has half a dozen horses, a bunch of hogs and a lot of poultry, and he is doing the whole job himself. -A visit to his premises would con- 1 vince one. also, that none of his ani-"^ mals are being neglected, for there are ' few more .«u-:'ces?ful feeders in tht county than this 'misv farmer. â€" Han- over Post. ^ OWENSOUND, ONT.
