nod “Children in the to-mOrrow of society” are somewhat synonymous in -their' meaning. The everyday observer of the rising generation. in the light of the two expressions, must have feelings of regret or plea- sure passing constantly through hisl reflective head. There are some boys who are always respectful to their superiors, respectful to their equals, and respectful to those in lower stations of life. Such boys the thoughtful man will put down as a class who in all likelihood will grow up as honest and honorable men and respected members of so- ciety. Such boys are not found in questionable company; they are not found in acts of wrong-doing; they are not found with the appearance of guilt upon their countenances. but can ever look the observer straight in the face and without dis- simulation. These are the boys that are wanted to-day, provided they have ambition. These are the boys our business men are trying to get hold of. These are the boys for wanwu. \ Boy reader! To which class do you belong? Do you want to be elâ€" igible to share the best things that are going? The matter is in your handg.

This was a subject. discussed in the House of Commons on Monday afternoon by Hon. W. S. Fielding. when it. was pointed out that farm- ers paid in 1921-22 $1,325,693 out of a totaf of $78,684,354. The number of farmers who paid income tax in those years in Ontario was 6,138 as compared with 1.870 the year before. In reply to a question how the inspectors of taxation discriminate in asking farmers -for their returns. Mr. Fielding said that returns are required from all persons who are deemed to be liable to taxation un- der the Income War Tax Act.

Shortly after the second period opened, Nellie McGirr scored the first goal, as a result of a scram- ble in front of the nets. Not long afterwards Listowel tied the score, which remained the same. until the end of the period.

Finally Durham forwards broke away and Eula Burnett put the game in the ice-box for Durham by scoring with a neat shot from the wing. The final score was 2-1 for Durham. The line-up : 7 Goal.

One team had as much condition as the other and it was just up and down the ice the whole 60 minutes. Combination and speed were features of the ‘game and checking was so close that no goals were scored the first two per- iods. Penalties were quite frequent, mainly for minor offences. At one time Durham had two men in the penalty box, but were able to ward off all the attacks, [which were quite ; determined. About five minutes after the be- ginning of the third frame, Durham got their first goal, when Kress got the rebound on a shot by Vollett. The next goal was the best of . the game when Vollett, starting from defence, stick-handled his way through the Listowel team for a counter. Burnett tallied the third goal on a shot from about centre. The fourth goal was scored by Snell on a wicked shot from left wing. The Listowel goalkeeper couldn‘t realize what happened. Listowel tried hard to score but- were held down too tight to do any damage. The final Seorc was 4-0. Both goalkeepers ‘played excep- tional games and though Durham perhaps had a shade more shots than Listowel, they were no easy shots that Mountain was called on to stop. “Pete” certainly played a good game.

Durham and Mount Forest High schools stageda hockey match in the rink here Tuesday night and it was a runaway for the locals, the final! score being 1-6-5 or something like! that. The Mount Foresters were completely outclassed and, not hav- ing to extend themselves, the Dur- ham team at times appeared quite as laggy as their opponents. The score at one. time was 10-1.

By order-in-council this right has been granted. The Ottawa story goes that the syndicate, composed largely pf Libâ€" eral politicians, is arranging to sell the rights for $3,000,000 to a British company.
