The effort put forth was worth while; the confidence gained by the men in their .ability as individual players and as & band is invaluable. They will return next year better prepared by experience and practice, and they will bring home one of the prizes. They were in competition with bands from much larger places, such _as North Bay with a population four times as large as Listowel. Barrie and Midland are both twice the size of Listowel. Then, too, the local band played all their own men, and did not bring in outside players for the occasion, as one of the prize-winning bands did. In ranking fourth in the contest they were only six points be- low the first band, so the competi- tion was close The standing of the eight bands in Class “C" -_ as follow North 90 Meaford. 88 Waterford 85 Weston Boys’ Band 85 Listowel 84 Midland 82 Oakridge 76 Barr 76 The Waterford and Weston bands -were tied for third place and divided + EVERYBODY'S COLUMN Ten cents a line for first in- sertion, with minimum charge of 50c.

The protest was made that the game was late in starting and that the last score was made on account of darkness. s se Listowel Juniors Tied Kitchener The Junior W. F. A. game played here last Friday evening with Kitch- ener resulted in a no score game. It was a good clean fast game of foot- ball, both teams doing cretitable| work, although weakened by the ab-| sence of some of their best men. The) ame was free from suena ane real football was playe The play in the first *ealt was pret- ty even, but in the second half the Kitchener boys were put largely on the defensive, except in the last few minutes of play. ine-up was as follows: Listowel—Goal, Edwards; backs, MelIntyre, Grant; halves, Wilford, Davidson, Kidd; centre, McConaghy; forwards, Moore, Woo Kitchener—Goal, Young; Reinhart, Carthy; halves, Wright, Bolt; centre, Hodgins; wards, Hastings, Whamsby, man. unke Referee—Bob Taylor of Galt.

He was a tower of strength to his team while on the forward line. Moore showea up best in the earlier stages of the game but_in the latter part Davidson came thru with some fine offensive work and his ball carrying was good.

The Septembér meeting of the Town Council met in the Council Chamber on Tuesday evening. All the members were present, excep? Coun- cillor veceae who has not yet re- turned from England. After the reading of the ‘minutes of the last monthly meeting and sev- eral special meetings held during ugust, a number of accounts were presented. A petition signed by twelve rate- ayers was presented asking for a cement road on Inkerman atreet from the west side of Division to the east side of Victoria. This block ts just the connecting link of the pave ments on Division and Victoria street. In the petition previously pre- sented for Inkerman, this block was not included. A motion was passea ‘referring the petition to the Clerk for certificate of signatures. A communication was read from Mr. Wm. Climie complaining that as a result of a leak in the hydrant = Dodd street his building was in danger, as the cellars under Banner Ofiice and Graham’s Barber poi were being flooded. The com- nm was referred to the Pub- lie. Utilities Commis Reeve Ringler handed in his re- rot er as inspector of.the build- ing of the new pavement on Doda street as he was going out of town for a short time. He objected to the manner in which the council had ap- pointed Mr. M. MacGillivray inspect- iz oe or of the cement work on Inkerman| ma and Division at a previous meeting when he was not present. The resig- nation was accepted and Mr. MacGil- livray was appointed in charge ot the work The council accepted the report of Engineer Bolton in regard to the tile, curbing and catch basins in connection with the pavement now — laid.

The Lis- towel club played much better soccer than at Kitchener, their team play being improved and they seemed to have more confidence in themselves. The second half found the Listo- wel team forcing play and they kept the Vics hopping and each time play went to the Listowel end of the rink it was quickly transferred to the Kitchener end for a more lengthy period. Then Listowel forwards got the range and they gave Young sev- eral hard ones to handle but he was equal to the occasion. 2 . In the first of the semi-final W.F.

L. Hamilton for using an assumed name when registering at a _ local hotel. At a late hour Monday night, a married man who said he hailed from Harriston, accompanied by two young ladies of about 18 years of age, tried to secure lodging at a local ho- tel. As the hotel was closed for the night, the night watchman admitted’ them and assigned them rooms. Being a little suspicious, the con- Stables got in touch with Harriston police and found there was no such man in that town. The'party was ar- rested early the next morning and hailed before the magistrate. It de- veloped that the man's name was mot the one given, and that he came from Brussels and not Harriston. He had attended the street dance in Palmers- ton and there met the two girls. One lived between Harriston = Clifford while the other one, was from Clifford, was visiting cee friend and both decided to take in the doings at Palmerston. An effofrt was made to secure lodging in that town and when they could not, the man had offered to bring them to Listo- wel. That was the way the story went. Magistrate Hamilton, after hear- ing the case,.fined the Brusselite $50 for false registration and ordered him to pay the railroad fare of the two soe to their homes. There was no charge against the girls and after a lecture by the , were taken to the train Bell Telephone Staff Honor Departing Employees The staff of the Bell pg ges Company met at the home of Mr. A.
