Everything was a financial success except perhaps the Intercol- legiate series. The fact of having artificial ice, a winning intermediate team and low admission prices made the Arena the busiest place in the city from the day it opened on Dec. 10th. The gross receipts of the rink managemént, after the shares of teams and #0 on have heen sub- tracted, amount to about $9,000 this year as compared with $2,500 the previous year. After all ex- penses are paid the rink may have a net profit of about three thousand dollars, but the actual figures will not be known till the audit is issued in April. The fans have been ex- tremely fortunate to see such good hockey at such reasonable prices. In the play-off games these ran from one dollar to 35 cents; in the ear- lier games from 76 to 25 cents. In the junior series admission varied between 50 cents and 10 cents. Paid admissions in the intermedi- ate O.H.A. games were as follows: Brockville 1228; Belleville 1760; Brockville: 2023; Belleville 988; Trenton 1224; Havelock 1972; Brampton 2645; Grimsby 2276. To- tal 14,116. Intercollegiate senior games -- Montreal 1017; McGill 875; Varsity 1950. Total 3842. Junior O.H.A. brought in 1583 fans; intermediate intercollegiate, 288; ladies games 759; junior In- tercollegiate, 540; city league, 1541; Quinte league 166z; exhibition 1830. The grand total of attendance at all the above regular games was 26,161. Besides these there were games among the students which sometimes drew quite large crowds. A year ago there were 89 sessions of public skdting. This year there have been to date 158 such sessions and the number will reach 170 be- fore the season concludes. There were 319 season tickets sold for the 1924 season and for this season the number was about double that fig- ure. The attendance for skating was far ahead of that of previous years. ------------------ LETTERS To The Editor More About Fox Snares. * Bolingbroke, March 6.--(To the Editor) : I would like to ask permis- sion to write a few lines in answer to Mr. Shaw's letter. He says he likes to use common sense, yet he says he has known dogs to be in his snares for days and be no worse than tied up at home. I think that would be a very inhuman way to treat a dumb animal. I would not like to have my dog tied in a barn for days without anything to eat, let alone tied up to a tree without room to lie down. He also says that he has snares set under the public waters of Bob's lake. Is that common sense? Mr. Shaw says that traps are worse than snares. I think so, too, if there were half as many set, but it would take a pile of money to buy as many traps as there are snares. Mr. Shaw says that ne has snares set with spring pole or a weight or some such contrivance, so that if a dog or any other thing gets in they will never get out alive. Is that not as bad as poison? I would just as soon have my dog poisoned as hung. Mr. Shaw would like to know who has been meddling with his snares. Well I have shot and seen shot five or six fellows that took his snares, some of them two. The poor fel- lows would have died anyway if they had not been shot. Just a few days ago while drawing a stack of hay 1 found a dead fox under"the hay with a snare on him. Mr. Shaw says up till two years ago he did not regard the law or the Lord's Day any more than I do. Well, may not regard the Lord's Day as I should; however, I am no hypocrite. --J. N. RITCHIE.

Canada grows the best wheat in the world. Other grains, fruits, vegetables, butter and cheese produced in Canada will stand comparison with similar arti- cles produced in other countries. Canadian live stock stands very high in international markets. Canadian factories make nearly everything that can be classed as a manufac- tured product. Canadian exports are sold in the principal cities of the world. The Canadian Section of the British Empire Exhibition was a re- velation to thousands of visitors. In spite of these facts, Canadians are buying hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of products from other countries that are produced by Canadian farms and factories, While it is quite true that we must buy a certain amount from other countries, it is possible to reduce the present volume of imports very materially by buying 'more Canadian products. If this is done, more Work will be provided for Canadians. Thousands of men and women are out of work in this' country at present. Some are using up their savings and others are being supported by charity. In co-operation with a number of other organizations, the Canadian Manufacturers' Association is mak- ing a special appeal this month to the people of Canada to buy more Canadian products, for the purpose of lessening unemployment and of stimulating business. GONDOLIERS A WONDERFUL OPERA. "The Gondoliers," being produced at the Grand Opera House, Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday, March 12th, 13th and 14th, under the di- rection of Capt. Alfred Light, R. M. 8. M., and Mr. Charles Gates, in aid of the Kiwanis charity "fund, is an 3 PROBS: --Wednesday, strong westerly. winds, fair and colder. opera which will appeal to every, theatregoer, .who looks forward to that ogcasional evening when every- | thing 'except the entrancing séenes | on the stage, is temporarily forgot- ten. "The Gondoliers" is an opera which appeals to every man or wo-| man who loves real entertainment. Those who love clean mirth will find | it when the Grandee Duke of Plaza- | Toro tells the assembly that he is a born leader; that he always leads his regiment, '"'especially when they are | coming away from action." Lovers of trained choral work will find their happy thrill in the rendering of the choruses under the direction of Capt. Light. The man who loves | strong melodious quartettes will go away from The Gondoliers feeling that his evening was well spent. There is something for every one: Humor, drama, human interest, a wealth of rarest music, colorful cos- tumes and absolute happiness which | reigns from the moment the curtain rises till it falls before the gvation of the crowds. Everyone will want to hear the Gondoliers because to miss it will be to lose one of the greatest opportunities of the season. Tickets are now on sale by all Ki- wanians and all the many members of the cast. Seat plan now open at the Grand Opera House. Take your tickets and have them exchanged for your reservations.
