AE TPP Be Ll A Ee SE DRYDEN OBSERVER 4, Tom inn af A deme DISTRICT NEWS % kkk DYMENT The ladies had arranged a dance in the school house last Friday for the benefit of the hospital fund and the general opinion is that it was the most successful dance held here. Mr "Hogan had decorated the school very tastefully and everybody was there to admire it--or nearly everybody. Sup- per was served by the ladies--I had seven pieces of cake_--and quite a few dollars were collected for the hospital. There was a sale of ice-cream and everything. Special thanks are due to Mr Borup, Mrs Hogan and Mrs Jetmundsen who had charge of the arrangements. Dr Henry from Ignace was a visitor on Friday and attended the dance and not only as an onlooker, oh no! He left the dancing floor just in time to catch No 4. We hope to see the doc- tor again soon. The roads have been in very poor condition lately but it is said that re- pair work will be started in the very near future and that the roads will be fine after it is finished. If this should be the case it will remove our best topic of conversation. Oh well, we still have the mosquitoes! Mrs Orr, who has been teaching school here during the past year, left last week for the east. : FOR THE HEENAN TROPHY Keewatin versus Ignace At Ignace on July 8th, before a goodly sized crowd, in ideal foothall weather. With both sets of players straining every nerve and atom of strength and skill to remain in the running for the Heenan Trophy, = battle royal was staged between the contesting teams. - Spectators expected and received a duel to the finish, and it speakes well for the players that the best of con- conduct predominated for well nigh the whole of the game. : Directly after the kick-off Ignace assumed a vigorous offensive, combin-~ ing energetically in an effort to draw first blood. The Keewatin detenders relieved nicely; transferring activities to the home citadel. A goal kick ended } the rally. Centre field play ensued, both aggregations struggling like demons for supremacy. After twenty minutes of piay a cor- the | nor against Keewatin resulted 1m home team assuming the lead, the ball entering the Keewatin net at a swift vate of speed from the foot of Robb, the Ignace inside left, who deflected a shot that looked like going wide, into the far corner of the goal, giving the Keewatin custodian no chance what- soever. This reverse spurred the Lake of the Woods athletes to greater efforts, but the railroaders defense, ably led by Stewart, successfully repulsed all attacks, the whistle blowing at half- time with Ignace leading by the one goal score. The final period opened in brilliant style, the home team bombarding the Keewatin citadel with a barrage of shots from all angles, many of which appeared to be labelled "goal." Wilson fired a hot one at goal, the Keewatin keeper clearing; James struck the up- "right with a terrific drive, the pig- skin rebounding to the foot of Robb, who shot a trifle wide. Hostilities then took form around the Ignace goal, the last fifteen min- utes resolving itself into a gruelling struggle between the Keewatin attacks and the Ignace defence. The home goalie rose grandly to the calls made upon him, gathering hot ones with the skill and certainty of a first leaguer. Keewatin's right wing worked well, but in vain. The repeated onslaught of the Lake of The Woods stalwarts proved heartbreakingly futile in face of the desperately stubborn Ignace de- fence, though their efforts were well nigh worth a counter. Full time arrived with the score unchanged, Ignace having chalked up its first win of the season, and sent unbound joy into the camp of both team and supporters. Referee McKee of Kee- watin handled his decisions very satisfactorily- Ignace team:-- A C Wilson, H Brown, F Patter- son, W Purnell, R B Stewart, C Parker, S Watson, A Robb, J James, H Colley, J Wilson. After the game the Keewatin con- tingent were guests at a Supper and Dance in the Community Hall. Rela- +ions. of a very cordial nature were revealed, the gathering breaking up at midnight, all feeling that the even- ing's programme had accomplished much to foster mutual respect and sympathy, particularly in regard to matters of clean,rugged sport. May such gatherings occur more frequently. MAID WANTED.--Apply Mrs Ww. D.

St. Andrews-by-the-Sea, N.B, -- The Canadian Manufacturers' Con- vention for 1922 is now a thing of the past, and to the almost 200 dele. gates and others who have been here for a week, attending the ses- sions, it will be a pleasant memory. So much of a success has been this year's convention that it can be said, without violating any conil- dences, that the most influential members of the association are anxious to hold future conventions under similar conditions. The Casino of the Algonquin Hotel provided an excellent meeting place, and the records show more discus- sion than at any four conventions in the past, while there has been more fraternizing by the delegates, who got to know one another to a greater degree than ever before. During the Convention days delegates played golf on the beautiful links overlook- ing the sea and indulged in swim- ming in Katy's Cove. Calgary, Alta. = After covering gix hundred miles in the southern portion of Alberta, at the end of June, J. M. Cameron, general super- intendent of the Alberta Division of the Canadian Pacific Railway, de- clares that crop conditions there, generally speaking, are very satis. factory. Mr. Cameron stated that farmers had been taught an object lesson by grasshoppers. Where these in- sects had been active had been on stubble-in crops. From the amount of summer fallowing that was now going on, farmers had realized that stubbling-in was a poor gamble and left a breeding place for the hop- pers. The hoppers, he said, were pow practically under control in the south. Cutworms had done little or no damage on account of the fre- quent showers. «] have been much pleased with my visit," said Mr. Cameron. "There is now quite an optimistic feeling among farmers and business men if the south country." Elkhorn, Man.--Forty gears age Mr. Jas. Rodgers commenced work- ing for the Canadian Pacific' Rail- way Company, as a section man, and in about five years, through his ability to give the best he could and also because of his sterling Integrity: old- was promoted to foremanship, position until 20 years ago, when he desired a change of employ- ment, and was transferred to the pumping station staff. For a while he worked at Fleming and Virden i» his new capacity and eventually assumed charge of the Elkhorn pumping station, on the retirement of Mr. R. Travis, another old time railroad man who is still with us, as hale and hearty as ever. "7A record such as Mr. Rodgers holds is decidedly unique. He is the second senior pumpman in the division, and his regularity and strict attention to his calling have won for him the deep respect of the Company, which places high value on the services of men of such capability. He has stood the rigars of an exacting position in a man- per that must reflect great credit.

(] ON RRR Ls CA RAR : A stmt AG A Be worry Wabigoon Picaiic EE i Dominion Day was celebrated in Wabigoon by a combination Picnic and sports day. When the crowd gathered a hat was passed around among the men who dropped in $15.00. With this money the committee in charge were able to reward the / Athletic endeavours of the rising gen- eration. After all the prizes were distributed some $6.00 remained. This money will be used for similar pur- posse at the School Fair. > The feature of the afternoon was the Baseball Game between Wabigoon and Cairnbrogie. Wabigoon was un- successful in the contest, but they showed themselves true sports by in- viting Cairnbrogie players and sup- porters to join them in a supper spread out on Mrs' Little's lawn. The spirit of friendliness between the Wabigoon and Cairnbrogie ball teams is highly commendible. If is the true sporting spirit." Everybody present i i joined in praising Mrs Betts, who was | 18 responsible for the excellent supper. The youngsters of Wabigoon tried their baseball powers against the juniors from the north side of Dryden, but after finding their ability not up to their ambition they surrendered the diamond for a mixed assortment of boys and girls who played strong and thrilling ball until it was time to adjourn to the dance in Johnson's Hotel. ! = Both are played by "Waters of Venice"--Wal DRYDEN BOARD OF EDUCATION.
