Contest Two local sharpshooters, mem- bers of the Haileybury Revolver "Club, have been successful in winning prizes in the annual D.C. R.A. matches, which were shot off in the winter and in which were included the members of similar organizations throughout the Dominion. Inspector F. B. Creasy, in charge of the head- quarters of the Provincial Police for this district, and Captain F. R. Bertrand, an officer of the Algon- quin Rifles, were the two men who won the prizes which came to the secretary of the local club, W. T. Joy, last week. Inspector Creasy received a silver vase, with monogram, as a special prize in "A'" series, while a similar prize was awarded to Captain Bertrand in "B" series. In addition to these awards, Capt. sertrand received a silver spoon as a prize for an average score of over 60 points for each match in the contest. The prizes have been placed on display in the window of A. MacLean's Store on Ferguson Avenue. where they have been _something of an attraction for the past few days. The Haileybury Revolver Club was organized only last Novem- ber and it is gratifying to know that tht members are progress- ing well. Perhaps when the time comes for the next D.C.R.A. con- test there will be even more prizes coming to the local shoot- ers. GIRLS' SOFTBALL SCHEDULE JUNE Fri., 17--Prospectors vs. B. Cats.

Captured Giant Moth at Rabbit Chute Tourist Camp A giant moth, with a wing spread of six inches, was captur- ed on Tuesday night at Rabbit Chute Camp, on the Matabitchu- an River, where R. R. Hennessy is operating a summer _ resort right in the heart of the fishing _area. The moth was' brought to the office of The MHaileyburian yesterday afternoon by M. J. Hennessy, who was present at the capture and who Stated that it had flown into the dining room after the darkness had settled down. One amateur naturalist, Mr. Hennessy said, had expressed the belief that this was what was known as an Anthrea moth. It was beautifully marked, both on the wings and body, and had the hairy limbs and fern-like anten- nae peculiar to this species. AI- together it was a beautiful speci- men. COBALT GIRLS TRIUMPH OVER HAILEYBURY IN ONE SIDED GAME Haileybury girl's softball team, the Black Cats, went down to disastrous defeat in the second game of the season on Friday ev- ening, when the Cobalt Miner- ettes piled up a score against them of 48-9. The visitors were off colour all through the game, and after the first inning, when they scored four runs, they appeared to steadily lose heart. The game was watched with considerable interest, however, by quite a large crowd of spectators. The following was the line-up: Minerettes:--A Davidson, pit- cher; D. Clemens, catcher; C. O'Malley, short stop; A. Donald- son, right field; L. Taylor, left field; S. McDonald, centre field; -_H. Winks, Ist base; M. Kennedy, 2nd base; F. Thorne, 3rd base. ne Black Cats:--G. Davis, pitch- r; E. Davis, catcher; L. Davis, short stop; M. Piche, right field; Byrne, centre field; L. Grieg, 1st base; P. Page, 2nd base; D. I ey, 3rd base. LEADERS IN BRITISH OPEN GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP The end of the first round of the British Open golf championship played at Sandwich, saw 25 3ritishers, crowded into the first 27 places. Gene Sarazen, New York Italian (right), headed the list with a 70, and later won the event, scoring a record-breaking 283 for his 72-hole total. Percy Alliss, England, (top right centre), came a close secand in the qaulifying round with 71. prominent stars who finished the first day near the top were Don Curtis (left), Err Other 2st Whit- combe (top, left centre), Archie Compston (lower, left centre), Henry Cotton, lower right centre Busy Month for Children's Aid Inspector Here Dealt With Sixty-Seven Children During May and Travelled Twelve Hundred Miles An interesting report of the ac- tivities of the Children's Aid So- ciety of _Temiskaming for the month of May has been given us this week by John R. McCracken, the local superintendent, and shows that the work of that or- ganization is ever increasing. Sixty-seven children were invol- ved in the yarious complaints and investigations held during the month and in the course of his duties Mr. McCracken traveiled a total of 1,219 miles. One feature of the work that is somewhat discouraging to the ones who are striving to ensure that the neglected little ones get a fair chance in life is the fact that it is difficult to find homes for those who are of necessity made wards of the Society. Dur- ing the month of May there was just one application for the adop- tion of a child; On the other hand, it is possible 'to place a number of children,,as wards of the Society, in foster homes with- out adoption, a total of six hay- ing been thus placed during the month. Four children were brought to the Shelter, as non-wards, and three of these were returned to their parents after investigations had been held. There were 18 complaints received by the In- spector and during the month he investigated 37 cases. His in- coming mail totalled 49 com- munications and he sent out 53. Nine office interviews were held by Mr. McCracken, he made six visits to wards of the Society, appeared once in court and issued one warning. Two children were made wards during the month. In addition to the official work of the Society' carried on by the Inspector, there were a number of children who ran away from their homes during the month and who were located by the provincial police officers and brought to him. Mr. McCracken then arranges to have these de- linquents returned to their homes ! j thing of this nature, unless some, -generous-minded citizens come to} |the rescue. Anything in this na-! 'ture would be.deeply appreciated.' | Salvation Army Celebrates 26th Anniversary of Opening Here} Sunday, June 19th is the 26th} anniversary of the opening of the Salvation Army work in this town. In this connection special services are being held to which the public is invited, especially soldiers and friends.

THROUGH CASTORIA'S GENTLE REGULATION The best way to prevent colic, joctors say, is to avoid gas in stomach and bowels by keeping the entire intestinal tract open, free from waste.
