Considerable discussion took place on this motion, the Council as one man agreeing that something be done to improve the delapidated appearance of the Town Hall. Would it be better to ~ wait until the Town had $30,000 to put into a hall (the preent eyesore getting worse all the time) or get busy at once and put the present hall into creditable shape? The hall can be strengthened, enlarged and brick veneered at a cost of $300 a year for twenty yeaws. This would give us hall at once which would serve the purpose of the Town and be no longer a blemish on the landscape. The question will be put to the vote of the ratepayers, under the conditions laid down on page two of this issue. - Canadian Red Cross Hospial, Dryden The Committee beg to acknowledge with thanks the following donations to the Hospital for the monh of June: Mrs Nymark, cakes; Mrs Hallam, magazines; Mes Parr, cream; Mrs Pitt, {fruit and magazines; Mrs Ernewein, bread; Mrs Reid, 4-Ibs butter; Dr Mrison, 2 wall plugs; Mrs Mould, Eng- land, 2 reading lights; Mr Rowland, magazines; Mrs Milroy, Mrs Gibson Mrs Dechert, Mrs Gould, Lila & Gladys Buchanan, flowers.

GIBSON, Agent, Dye fn Work Together WALDHOF, July 2nd.--It certainly was a great treat to the public to listen to he address of Mr George Keen, in Waldhof Community Hall, on Monday night. The speaker showed most wonderful talent. Not only has he the matter wholly in a but his manner of speech is above the average. He start- ed off by congratulating the directors and members of the Waldhof Co-op. Club on their success in co-operative enterprize. "Notwithstanding the many difficulties you peeple had te overcome, vou have managed to build up for your condition no small reserve. This shows what can be done when people ave de- termined to-do a thing. Bui, he says, you may have been successful till now; it is your duty, as well of the directors as of every share- holder, to see that your business is held intact, and you should all take enough interest'in it to ensure the future, more 30 if we consider the fact that there will be a change in society. When? Nobody can teli. But sooner perhaps than we expect. There is no better school for the common people to learn and study busi- ness than just in your own co-operative enterprize. For example he demonstra- ted how the members of the Labour Government in Great Britain had been had the administration in trust of millions of pounds in business; in fact, the biggest busness he knew of. And why should we have co- opera- tion? Because all should work for the good of mankind, This is the goal of co-operation. Not as go many believe, the selling of goods a cent cheaper than Mr Storekeeper next door. No, it gives honest, not cheap service. * Co- operation has saved millions for the people, but it never made a single millionaire and never will. Mr Keen also commended what co- operation had done for the miners in Cape Breton: . how with the help of their own organization these men and women had been saved from absolute starvation. It is somewhat surprising that in our fair Dominion there is not more done in the direction of co-opera- tive buying. Perhaps the selling end is well looked after. The wheat pool in the west is an example of an enormous co-operative move. When we consider that around 50 percent of = the entire wheat crop has been marketed in that way, this alone represents a saving that perhaps very few farmers realize. Another weak point of Canadian co-operation is that there are so many co-op companies, or clubs, or associa- tions work in unrelated cireles, whieh do not care to link together and work co-operatively. This is most deplorable. The buying power of so many small and hitherto isolated bodies combined would represent a power which many big concerns and perhaps governments and' combines would not only consider, but respect. Even tariff and other legislation which rests so heavily on farmers and workers would remove the yoke, because why should not a co- operative union able to erect their own factories, as is done in Great Britain, and manufacture their own product? Today it is said that co-operative con- sumers associations are standing firmly | o as a bar between the Soople and many a trust. Still more, if co-operation is able to break trusts and combines, it will also break the competitive system and re- place it with the service system. This would mean finally' no more competi- tion, and ultimately do away with war and all its ugliness, and there will and must be Peace. Certainly it is a great thing to work for this ideal. 'A' more than warm applause thanked the gifted speaker, and the chairman thanked Mr Keen in warm words for his clear and wonderful address. Mr Fred Brignall spoke a few words thanking the directors of Waldhof Club that they managed after some difficulty to get Mr Keen here and hoped that he would have another opportunity to hear Mr Keen, SE i hools are now closed for summer lidays, and parents are now wonder- ing what the next trick will be of Bob nd Bess. --of course a nice oneze and Ma never did anything like that.

Try But try Cup Offered for District League The. fine athletic form that is being shown by the teams composing the Dryden Disrict Baseball League, is winning the favour of all fans, and to encourage the young athletes to keep up their splendid record for healthy sport, D. W._Scott has decided to present the Walter Scott Cup for annual competition by the League, the Athletic Associgtion giving badges to each member of the winning team. Everybody appreciates the high level that sport has attained this year. The District League is the best idea yet. In Dryden alone, there are twenty-seven playing ball instead of nine, and excell ent ball at that. The Leagie is developing players, and is producing many surprises among the younger set. Young fellows are stepping out on the hall field that nobody dreamed could play. And any player or team that wants to stay has got to be up on their toes all the time to hold iii BASEBALL The Cubs climbed into first place in the second series of Dryden District Baseball League by defeating Oxdrift Giants 18-6. : After the first innings, in which the Cubs got 6 runs, the Giants were out- classed and played in all ways. Miller pitched for the Cubs and had - the Giants eating out of his hand and also perfect support from his team-mates. Anderson, twirling for the Giants, was hit freely in the opening of the game but settled down and played good ball. Ragged suppirt from his team let him down. He was relieved in the seventh by B. Millings, one of the Giants new men, and for the remaining two frames held the cubs down to three small hits, showing wonderful delivery and speed, but lacking a little in control. WEDNESDAY-- The Cubs held their own on {he First and put themselves up another rung of the ladder by defeating the Tigers 11-7. Miller pitched great ball, but git wild in the fourth and with place. The team that lives clean and works hard is the one that's going to win the Cup, and the opportunity is open to any amateur 'team in the Dryden District. Full details will be an- nounced later. THE glorious First of July, Dominion ay, was featured in Dryden this year by the finest sports programme that we have had in years. Under the auspices of the D.A.A.A. a special committee, including A. Clempson, (Chairman), Dr Morison (secy), Fred | Ory, C. J. Wright, H. Willard and F. M. Offer made arrangements.
