Attending ~ Convention | j b Feo. Kelley is in Winnipeg this week representing the 1-eal Royal Black Preceptory Lodge at the thirty-first annual session of the Grand Black Chapter of Manitoba. The Grand Orange Lodge of Manitoba is a'so hold- ing its fifty-ninth annual con- vention in Winnipeg tis week and Percy Moore and Robert McMonogle are representing the' local L.O.L. The convention is esye i ily} interesting to the membership ¢s the grand lodge is celebr ting its sixtieth 'milestone this year. Back in 1871 the first lodge was organized with jurisdiction from Rat Portage to the Brit'sh Col- umbia boundary. It was known ; as the Grand Lodge of Manitoba an the North-eWst Territories. The first meeting of the lodze was held aboard the ¢'Jessie MacKennie,"' on the Red river. It was held in the cabin of the boat because a room could not be procured in the town. The cecretary, in writing an a count of the tribulations of this pion- cering organization, stated that the members were hunted f om place to place. Among the first officers chos- en were: Stewart Mulvey, grand master; Hon. W. Ogletree, M.L. C., deputy grand megter; W, RB Cowan grand secreta-y, and W. Crowson, grand treasurer. At the fifty-ninth con-ention this week, Hugh Wallace, the grand master, will preside at all sessions. ) Preliminary Notice The United and Anglican Churches are uniting for a week of Lenten Services commencing Monday, March 30th. The Rev's Clarke, McAllister and Howes will give each evening at 8 o'e. a meditation appropriate to this holy week. There is no time in the Chrigt- ian Calendar so fru'tful for sritual enrichment ag this sea- son, The Churches and Minist- ers appeal for a full recognition of these services that this Bast- 1 part and if he wanted to go into the Red Lake distrizt, it took a week to get there. "That is not representation by yopula- iion," he said, Hon. Peter Heenan, he g id had merely attempted to look after the working man. The conditions he portrayed did exist in Northern On'ario. "I can give absolute proof the men were sleeping in a tent piled with manure which has been there for more than a year,"' he said. Commerciol Fishing Survey should be made of the J lakes suitable © for comm.or ial fishing in the Kenora district, said the member. Thee was : danger of some being complete ly fished out and, if they were divided into groups and fi hing prohibited in alternate years, they would restock them elves indefinitely. "We have heard a lot abowt peonage and slavery in Nor. thern Ontario,"" said General Hogarth, the next speaker. "Not from me," said Me. Hut. chinson. "No, but from your lo d and master, Peter, eral. 'I have never come in contact with anyore in Nor- thern Ontario who did not laugh out loud or grin at these ch-rg-s. It is nonsense. It is pifiling nonsense and there is no c¢ne knows it hetter than Mr, Hut- chinson. Sympathy for Fellow Men "One does not have to sym- pathize with or take. an active part in the revolutionary stiike at Winnipeg in 1919 or favor Soviet Russia to have a fee ing for one's fellow man." "1 do not stand for the Qocialistic system of Russia and no Labor man in my ditri t has ever advocated that system,' said Mr. Hutchinson. "We have expelled Communists from our organizations, but we do not think you can help matters hy 7 replied the len. § For Curlers Only The following was cl' pped from the "Telephore Echo" and was handed to the Ol ssrver ior publication by a member of the local curling club. It will he continued next week when the duties of the Second Player will be dealt with. The Duties of the Players on a Curling Rink To the uninitiated, looks like a rather silly game, and to one looking at the vari ous rinks in action for he {irs: ume, particularly during bon- spiel week with its cont.nual aurry and seurry, it is rather a muddle to a sightseer. The ¢ greenhorns try to understand he explanations as to scoring, hut usually this a little deep for them so to show some essence of intelligence they begin to ask questions. What does the lead do? Is he the head man? What does th second and third do? Who is the skip, what is he for? if at all. Here, therefore, is a list of the duties of the respective asus of a curlng rink :-- Lowly Person The Lead. This is a very lowly person who throws the first pair of' rocks. He is supposed to thank the Deity once a day in his prayers that he even exists, let alone is allowed to play at bons- spiel time, All curlers have ser- ved this period of app:entice- ship and it is a remarkable fact that 90 per cent. of them have never served long enough. He! always addresses the skip as "8ir" and the third man as "Mr."" This lead is expected to see that the four pairs of rocks belonging to his rink are on the carling f-.r= LOCAL NE Ws Royal Bank staff, has spend her annual vacation her home in Winnipeg. ® * * Mr. and Mrs. Donald Gardiner and baby daughter, of Winnipeg are visiting relatives in Dryden and Eagle River. * #* at Ld Mrs. Guay was a visitor from Dinorwic early this week. #* * Ed Mrs. R.

He is expected to keep the skip supplied with cigarettes and to purcha-e at least one bottle of Scoteh es ens: per diem, This is to be consum- ed by the rest of the rink and the skips of the defeated rinks! on that day. He is not even! allowed over the hog line except when sweeping. He is not ex- pected to have any use for any alibi. iHs curling must be per- perfect or he is blamed for the logs of all games in which his rink suffers defeat. He may tell the second man what he thinks about the skip, but no one else. After many years he becomes a skip, if he survives the sarcasms of his associates, (To. he continued next week SURPRISE PARTY Mrs. M.
