There is a gap in the store's trad- ing once a year, this gap is like an air pocket. It is a vacuum, and that vacuum is called stock- taking. As far as this store is concerned this ends the last of February, and so busy is everyone taking down the thousands of items in this store, that there is no real thought of selling. Therefore, we hold back our New Goods until March 1st, but after that date we will begin to open up a great deal of New Merchan- dise, and we confidently assert that next weeks advertisement will be worth looking at, because it will contain something of real interest. In fact without betray- ing too much secret, next weeks focus will be on | LINOLEUMS, OIL CLOTHS --and-- CARPET SQUARES. K ' miles of Richan. 2. The second load was brought into ,, 7.80.

ED PITT, Ltd. | Dryden Hockey Team Visits Sioux L.ookout Last Saturday, February 21st, Dryden Hockey Team and rooters journeyed to Sioux Lookout, to play their much longed for game of Hockey. The day itself was ideal for travelling. Jack Skillen, or otherwise known to his friends as "Doc Langtry, Jr.," was piloting the first load. Though his friends may not know it, Jack is a ¢00d "Mule" skinner. All he needs is a pair of wooden lines, so that he. can help the horses along. Ernie § Dickson sat in seat No. 2, and by the way---this is too good to keep--one o: the boys bought a cigar in Dryden, chewed it all the way to Richan (cached it) and on coming back spear- ed it and smoked it coming home. (No. that's not tight: that's just a wee bit cammy). Next we have the harmony quartette, consisting of Smokey Jos Russell, tenor, manager and trainer of of the team; Ralph Davidson, Bass and wing man; O. Jackson, second tenor and centre forward, and Tom Foote, baritone, and wing man. Art Clemp- son was subbing for Davidson, in the quartette. Spike Colliss helped Jack son out when he got tired. Ernie Louttit done his stuff, while Dickson was no' smoking his cigar? C. Sfreddc done the subbing for Smokey Joe. No doubt the boys put forth quite an ef- fort to make the noise sound harmon- ous, but there is no use trying to mix grand opera and jazz. I'll bet there is not a sign of wild life within twenty Harry Beddome, not knowing anything about music, con- ; ducted the quartette. action by Bdison Wilson, local livery man, and consisted of Bill Self, Walter « Hardy, Reg. Dixon, O. Swanson, Vie 3 Holmn, R. Olson, Don Taylor, S. Wright, L. Sfreddo and B. Smith. X i Arriving ot Sioux Lookout abou! 'charge of them and put them up at the local Y.M.C.A.--which by the way would be a credit to any town, much larger in population (not heart) than Sioux Lookout. After a light supper the team arrived at the rink, and got ready for the game. Dryden has the distinction of draw: ing the biggest crowds of spectators out to any game in the Lookeut. Space does not permit the game, play by play. The first period found some "of the boys a little bewildering, strang= ice, strange crowd, and the first "1me away to play an out-of-town team. It aléo had Dryden on the short end oi a 8-0 score. Both teams traveling at a terrific pace, with the Lookout & little better in the shooting end. Dry: | den team were doing as much shooting and playing as much hockey as the Sioux. Young Charlie Faulkner was in the net for the Sioux, and was stop ping everything from anywhere. The end of the second period found Dryden getting its sea legs, and the score board showed 5--3 for the Sioux. The pulp mil] towr was playing the game of their lives, but the same old trouble, young Faulkner always in the way! The end of the third period found the Sioux with the score 7--6, and the statement from one of the Sioux fans: "The fastest and cleanest games of Hockey ever played in Sioux Lookout." Tt would be folly to pick any of the Dryden Boys out and say. they out- shone the rest. They played for all that was in them, and although on the short end of the score, was a game to be proud of. Beddome, Colliss and Louttit gave a good account of themselves, while on the ice. Dickson turned in a good game on defence, although one could see he had something on his mind. Probably that some one would find out where he cached that stogie. : Not knowing any of the Sioux boys, it was hard to pick out any of their players. The hockey fans can see for themselves a repetition of the game on this Saturday night at the Dryden : Rink. ; You are assured of a good, fast, cleah game. Come and see it! Keewatin Defeats Dryden When the bell was sounded by Dusty Warren at 7.30 Tuesday evening, the crowd was on its feet hoping to see Dryden Juniors come out victorious in he hockey mateh with their Keewatin rivals. Dave thought his two dolla bet was good and sound; but the ol gresn-and-white came back strong and showed their old win or die stuff. Cossey for the visitors played a grea' game, Gerdon in the net stopping whe ome team, but never seemed able te carry home the bacon. After the second period Hansen and ooked like victory for Dryden. Clemp -on, Foote, Louttit played well for the et away to much of a start. The hecking of Keewatin was a little to wich for them. But nevertheless the den boys put up a hard fight tc EE The Girls game proved immensely ateresting, both teams cutting up th e. Winnie Hickey, the Keewatin sta: 1thlete, was some speed artist and wa only one of an aggregation that coulc show wonderful hockey. The Dryden Flappers showed style "00, being greatly improved since thel ast game with the Sheiks. After the games the hockey team' had a bean feed, rollowed by a dance which lasted till three o'clock, They had a swell time up to the last waltz '00. The Keewatin Girls declare it i the best reception they have ever had Dryden Flappers intend to go ur 0 Keewatin next week to play a re- urn game.

Adopts New Ruling Tducational Dept., 109 George St. Toronto, Ontario The United Farmers Co-Operative Co., Lid., Adopts New Ruling. Only supporters of U.F.O. Organiza- ions will share in Commodity Divid- nds. With a view to consolidating the organized farmers movement in Ont- rio, the United Farmers Co-Operative Company Limited, at its lasts board neeting, made an important ruling re- sarding the payment of commodity lividends. As is well known, the co-operative company is developing its business in accord with the approved methods of co-operative commodity marketing, whereby each department dealing in a eparate commtodity--or one or two fogsely allied commodities--will be /rtualy a separate department unde: 'he management of its own expert. Under this arrangement the profits on cach commodiy will go to producers on the patronage basis. The Toronto Creamery branch placed on this basis on November 1st. last. The Egg Pool and the Seed Pool are already on a similar basis. The in- tention is eventually to place all de- partments on the same bagis. The important ruling which the directors brought into effect at their last meeting was that such commodity dividends will be payable only o share- holders of the co-operative company and members of the U.F.O. in good standing, except that any patron of those branches of the co - operative company which are on the commodity basis, will be allowed to participate in the commodity dividends, provided he allows a deduction of $2 from his dividends, to be devoted to the educa- tional work of the U.F.O. organiza- tion. This does not mean that there is any Goals scored for Dryden--Jackson,' 2; C. Sfreddo 2, A. Clempson and T.; Foote 1 each.

LEWIS, Oxdrifit. desire to prohibit non-members and non-shareholders from patronizing ov dealing with the company. On the contrary The United Farmers Co-Op- erative Company iLmited, welcomes business from all sources. It simply means that all participants in com- modity "dividends must in future con- tribute to the support of the U. F. O. organizations. Shareholders in the Co-operative Company and members of the U.F.O. in good standing, who are entitled to commodity dividends, will receive them in full without deduction. Non-mem- bers and mnon-shareholders will re- ceive full value for their products, the same as members and shareholders, but if they desirs to participate in corm modity dividends, they must be will- 'ing to allow a deduction of $2.00 for educational purposes.
