This win made it necessary for Port arthur to play a "sawoff" with the home rink from Madsen as each of these aggregations wound up with 5 wins and 1 loss, o-0-0 FIRES BURN UP JOBS OBEY SAFETY RULES 0-0-0 "STARS OF WILF CARTER SHOW" HERE MONDAY Under the auspices of the local "Hoe- down Club" a Western Style Show and Dance will be held in the South Camp Recreation Hall on Monday, Feb. 9th. of the programme, the 2 hour show will get underway at 8:30 p.m. with the dancing to follow immediately afterwards, for the show will be 75¢ for adults and 35¢ for children under 12. ends the Show will be admitted to the Dance" for 50¢ extra, otherwise 75¢ will be the admission price to the Dance, The first part 4£dmission Anyone who att- This promises to be a very interesting evening with Singing, Music, Dancing and Comedy being featured throughout the Show.
