Eglington Ave. and Weston Road, on HOW THE INDIANS Stories of Early Game Make Very Interesting Reading Some of the most interesting pasâ€" sages of Canadian history are the deâ€" scriptions of early â€" Indian lacrosse matches related by Catlin and other early explorers and writers. Accordâ€" ing to them in the ancient matches as many as five hundred Indians a side took part. The affair was atâ€" tended_with great ceremony, a special course of training was followed and a special sporting suit was worn conâ€" sisting of a breech cloth to which was attached a long flowing tail, « someâ€" thing like a horse‘s tail. Some wore moccasins, while others went barefoot. The game was played for stakes, usually piles of blankets, which were laid out and placed under the guard of the squaws during the match. . It will be seen that the first origins of lacrosse were like its descendants, not strictly amateur. The oldest medicine men of the tribes were the umpires, and they sat about in solemn _conclave for days before the match, praying for aid in giving just decisions. Their judgment was final. They kept tally by little sticks which were laid in piles as the score rolled up. Sometimes the match lasted for two or three days accordâ€" ing as the total score was set for ten, twenty or even two hundred points. The referee was more like a master of ceremonies, whose duty it was to propound the rules before the match was begun and keep the game generally in order. He was usually a player himself, who took part in the match, chosen for his superior speed and ability. The inâ€" fluence of the Indian game upon the early white man‘s lacrosse is seen in the \rules of the N.L.A., which proâ€" vide for the command of‘the game by the umpires, the referee only to be consulted for a casting vote when the umpires disagree. v For three or four days before the contest, fasting was practised. This seems ridiculous to us, but it must be remembered that the Indian‘s normal condition of healthy living was semiâ€" fasting and that the only thing which put him out of condition except acciâ€" dent was gorging or too much food or drink. Fasting was the Indian trainer â€"chief‘s remedy for this danâ€" ger. Then the night before the moâ€" mentous match was to begin, all asâ€" sembled decked out in their paint and feathers and commenced a wild dance about huge fires which were made. The practice varied with difâ€" ferent tribes. Some danced straight through for two or three hours until morning so that they got exhausted ‘into a cold stream. Others danced for The Indians had ideas of training which would hardly commend themâ€" sélves to modern players. Of course the game they played, lasting such a time, was a test of endurance especâ€" ially. The players on each side were so numerous that it can be imagined that many of them were frequently swinging the lead while the rest were in the thick of the melee. Only in this way could it have been possible to finish the match. There was no attempt at team play, nor were subâ€" stitutes allowed. _A player whose bones were broken got off the field as best he could without the game stopping. If he got better of his disâ€" ability he could return, but the same personnel or a fraction thereof that commenced the game must finish it. And for this trying ordeal the training was peculiar. PLAYED LACROSSE â€" TENTH ANNUAL Admission 15¢ â€" Children 5¢ Proceds in aid of Church of the Good Shepherd THE TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON i A remarkable thing about the game iis that though so rough and unreâ€" lstrained, the best of feeling existed | between the contestants. Is the Indian superior in selfâ€"control or did his |\ surpassing condition make him more i stoical and immune from pain? a half hour every two hours until morning so that they got no sleep. This was their training. Small wonder that little things like rules were not bothered with when players were in this state of exhilaration. Play was commenced by throwing the ball high into the air midway beâ€" tween the goals. A mad throng rushâ€" ed in to catch it on its descent and they were off. The ball was never faced after that but was put into play in the same way after each point scored. A A human touch to these matches which imputes to the Indian/a touch of the chivalry of the era of knightâ€" hood: gallantry is disclosed in â€" the custom of the maidens running out on the field of play before the match and presenting beadwork pledges to the fleetest and bravest players, who put them in their belts and did their best to bring honor to the tokens in their play. f 3 The crosse used by the Indians was a much different affair to the civilized stick ,now employed. It was a oneâ€" hand implement seldom more than threefeet long, a nearly straight stick containing at its end a circular or oval hoop from three to twelve inches in diameter, strong with loose netting in which the ball was carried. The size of the netting varied as did the rules with the different tribes. Some used two sticks, one in each hand, carrying the ball between them. Nearly _ all used a single stick or three for a goal, the rules of some requiring this to be struck with the ball, while with others it was sufficient to cross an interminâ€" able line running through the stick, a point being scored on the same prinâ€" ciple as a touchâ€"down in Rugby. The distance between goals ran all the way from 500 yards to oneâ€"half mile or more. A great event in lacrosse circles was a visit in 1876 of a team of Indians to England, along with a team of whites, under the care of Dr. Eoers, who is called the father of lacrosse. Matches were played before the GRAMOPHONE KNOWS NO CLASS DISTINCTION A few months ago a contemporary British work by ‘Arthur Bliss, entitled "Rout," was recorded. More performâ€" ances, perfect performances, have been given ,of that work in homes of all classes than could possibly have been given in the concert halls. Thousands of people have thus heard "Rout" in a concert room? The same remarks apâ€" ply to another British work not so very Prince of Wales and the Lord Lieuâ€" tenant of Ireland. The English and Irish aceounts of the matches are very columinous and if they are somewhat naive and lack expert appreciation of the game, yet are frank in expression of first impressions of an entirely new came. We hear much about the decentralâ€" ization of music. But surely the gramoâ€" phone is ithe greatest decentralizing force in existance at the present time. Music of all kinds, can be brought into every home, no matter in what part of the, world. Everyone can hear Wagner, Irving Berlin, Caruso or Al Jolson. And the executive musicians do not suffer financially in consequence of this becentralization. Large incomes of derived as one always hears from gramophone records.

Truly, there are no obivious limits to the educational and rosreate possâ€" ibilities of the gramophone. There is no reason why everyone should not become familiar with a huge amount of fine mmusic. Rich and poor can be equal in their knowledge. The gramophone knows no class distinction. 5Wg§|’on D-«Lalififi"réducts 5 2902 DUNDAS STREET Millward € Harrison GINGHAMS Drop in and look over our store. BLOOMERS HOSIERY MIDSUMMER CLEARING RS .
