The town girls are to be congratulated for their de- termination to down their opponents but their efforts proved fruitless against the faster and more practiced High School team. It was a very interesting game from start to finish and the spectators greatly enjoyed it. The line up. High School Forwards--M Short and E.

Interment will be made at the Pine Grove Cemetery on Saturday morning, the body arriving on the 9.11 train from Toronto. W.C.T.U. The regular monthly meeting of the W.C.T.U will be held on Tuesday, May 28, at 3.30 p.m, in the Public Library. 'There will be election of officers, and all members are urgently requested to attend. Mrs. Farmer, Press Supt. Myrtle Messrs Lorne Duff, Oliver Graham, and Russel Leach were in Oshawa on Tuesday, and returned clad in khaki. They were permitted to have two weeks leave of absence to work on the farm. After that they will have to report at Brantford. Considerable excitement was caused here on Wednesday, when the nude body of a newly born infant, wrapt in shawl was found beside the C.P.R. railroad tracks. ~ Immediate investi- gation was made, but as yet little clue 'Mr. Harron has purchased a num- ber of acres adjoining his own lot-- tensive gardening.

Maurice Ford has been nearly three years doing his bit in the war, Very little has been said about him in the paper, and this letter was secured by request, as we felt that "the steady faithful service of Maurice Ford has béen sufficient to rouse a real interest in his welfare. Few men have had the good fortune to see so much real fighting without suffering any wounds. The letter gives some idea of how the Germans feel about the big offensive. France, April 23, 1918. Dear Dad--VYour letter, which I just received was 'most welcome. suppose all your seeds will be in by this time, and I hope they do well. The last time I met Bill Cafley was at Vimy Ridge. [ was talking to him for quite a while. He has a pretty good job in the Salvage Corps--about two hours work each day. It's a job they call bomb proof. But I haven't seen him since the big push started. 1 think the German offensive has completely failed. From what the prisoners say, everybody is absolutely disappointed. In searching the body of a dead German officer, a diary was found containing these notes regarding the great German offensive: First Day---Everybody marching toward the line, everybody laughing and singing the national anthem. The weather simply glorious, Second Day--We are in reserve, and everybody is looking forward to the morrow, when they will crush the detestable British, and have militarism reign forever, with the Kaisor at the command, Third Day--We went over the bags and took many prisoners. Everything is going fine, There is a_ slight rain to-day. Fourth Day--Thedetestable British' are certainly fighting manfully, and are slowly retiring; but are inflicting heavy casualties on us. But then it's the only way to complete victory--by forming a barricade with our dead.It's still raining. Fifth Day--Everybody is in a mass of confusion. Regiments of every description are mixed up, and nobody knows where they belong. The British have stopped our ad- vance. Everybody is dead tired, wet and cold and disappointed, because we 'have not gained any of the objec- tives we set out for,and the loss of life is terrible. On the Sixth Day he had the date down and after that he was killed. This gives you some idea how the Germans feel about it. I fully believe that in another three months we ahall have them beaten, and they will be asking peace at any price.. I think the Americans will turn the tables, but they should come quickly, or they will be too late. It's in God's hands, and He does things in His own good time. He will give victory to the right, and 1 sincerely hope He will give it soon, for I am dying to get home. When you come to think of it, it is nearly three years since I joined the Canadian forces. When I first jolned up, I'did not think the war would last as long as it has. Never mind, I'm doing my bit, anyway. Give my love to all who are in need of it. Best Love, MAURICE.
