THE FLSeHSRTGN 'imV^^UCE WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, lt|f Flesherton Won First From Chatsworth 4-1 Flesherton opened the N^orthern Hockey League schedule on Friday evening with a decisive 4-1 win over Chatsworth in Che first double sched- ue of home and home games between these two teams. The game was played on slow ice and neither team could work proper iconilbination on the sticky ice and a rolling puck would be batted goalwards in place of being properly despatched. Flesherton played rings around the Chatswortli team the first period, in fact the visitors failed to have a shot on go&l that Wright would be forced to stop. The entire team played a splendid back-checking game and also were hard to stop on the offensive. It was in the first period that Flesh- erton won this game when Boyd netted the puck from a shot from the blue line after two minutes of play, Twelve miTiutes later Patton slipped in the second counter and the third was also credited to Patton with only a minute to play when Best gave him the pass in a scramble in front of the net. Best took a fine pass from Patton on a face-off at the side of the Chatsworth net after eight min- utes of play in the second to add the fourth goal. iWith only three min- utes to play Eddie McFarland secured â-  Chatsworth's only counter when he shot from outside the blue line and, owing to a number of players ob- scuring his view, Wright never saw the puck until he pulled it out of his citadel. McCutcheon then took a minutes rest, the first of the evening, on a minor penalty. This completed the scoring for the game. Although the last period was fairly fast, neith- er team could control the puck when they had splendid chances for scor- ing. Cairns took a penalty in the last period for a trip.

Johnston of Markdale joined the team for the first time and were a tower of •trengrth on the defence. Johnston's defensive ability stopped many rush- as and he teamed up well with Mc- Cutcheon. Both forward lines did •plendid work and were equally ef- feetive. Ref ere* â€" "Buck" Singleton, Mark- dale. MR. AND MRS. W. H. THURSTON, who celebrated their golden wedding anniversary at their home in Fleshei ton on Sunday with their, family present for the happy event. Editor Aad Wife 50 Years Married *Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Thurston of the Flesherton Advance celebrated their golden wedding on Sunday in the presence of their immediate family, all the members of whom were pres- ent, and a few old and tried friends. On the Saturday evening previous a party of about thirty citizens invaded their home and presented the bride and groom with a beautifully worded address read by Mrs. 0. W. Phillips while^his was accompanied by a well filled purse, presented by Mrs. Mark Wilson on behalf of the citizens. The address read as follows: Dear Friends:- We desire to offer you our very sincere best wishes, and congratulations on this the fift- ieth anniversary of your wedding and desire at the same time to bear testi- mony to your ever faithful friendship, and your ever willingness to help in all our community efforts of any kind. We are very glad to know that you are both in good health, and wish you both many years to enjoy the eventide of life, If it be God's will. We ask you to accept this~purse from your many Flesherton friends. at Klmberley on January 14, 1884, the ceremony being performed by Rev, Thomas Grandy, pastor of Eugenia circuit, in the presence of only nine teen persons. The bride was assist- ed by Miss Gertrude Thurston, now Mrs. G. H. Walter of Calgary, Alta.; the groomsman. Rev. Dr. S. D. Gaudin has been in the Indian missionary work for forty-three years. Im- mediately after the ceremony they left for Toronto where they resided for four and one half years, when they moved to Flesherton which has proved to be a case "of chickens com- ing home to roost." Mrs. Thurston was a daughter of Francis and Evas Gaudin of Thombury; the groom was the eldest son of the late James M. and Adeline Thurston of Kimberley, who were among the first half dozen pioneers of the Kimberley Valley. There were six children born to them, three girls and three boys: A. S. Thurston, Arnold M. (who passed in the Great War on June 26, 1916), Frank, partner in The Advance biisi- ness; Mrs. N. H. Durrant of Mitchell, Mrs. R. W. Shaw of Lions Head and Miss Dell, teacher in Toronto. Both bride and groom are grateful indeed for the many expressions of goodwill and kindly wishes expressed so lavishly by telegraph, telephone and much prized letters, by which they have been deluged since the Mr. and Mrs, Thurston were married happy event of Sunday last.

New Loan By Provioce $40,000,000 Debenture Issue offered in Denominations of $100, $500 and $1,000 LOOKS OF THE THING Lost Second 5-3 The second game of the aeries was played in Chatsworth Monday even- ing when the homesters were more comfortable on their own ice surface and forced their visitors to accept a ff-3 defeat. Flesherton led the goal |)arade with two goals in the first period by Cairns and Boyd but failed to add to their count in the second, while Chatsworth tied the score with two goals in rapid succession. At the start of the third they forged ahead with a goal which was evened again with Patton batting one in. Play was fairly even throughout the contest, but Chatsworth had the edge on the locals and netted two more to win the game. These are two well matched teams and play wide open hockey all the time, which pleases the fans. The third game in the series will be in Flesherton Friday night, while the fourth and final will be in Chatsworth next Monday night. The list of players was the same as in the former game with the exception ol Bill Galbraith, who played on de- fence. D. A. Jackson Dies Markdale and district were shocked on Thursday morning when David Albert "Bert" Jackson was found dead from a gunshot wound in the chest in the office of his garage. Mr. Pat York discovered him when he opened the garaga at 8.30 a.m. Dr. A. Brown was called and found that Mr. Jack- son had been dead for some hours. Dr. Frank Martin, coroner, investigat- ed the death and decided an inquest was not necessary. Bert was well known throughout' this entire section and made many friends who were shocked )by the sad occurrence. Besides his fathei he leaves to mourn a sister, Mrs. Eric Donaldson, of Toronto and a half brother, ,W. Rhesa Jackson, of To- ronto, The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon and was largely attended. Interment took place in Markdale cemetery. Editor GeliB Into Trouble Despite the teaching of an exper- ienced coach the Owen Sound Olym- pics, intermediate team, lost to Mea- ford again on Monday in Owen Sound 5-0. Owen Sound was confident of "taking" Meaford at home and their defeat is a calamity to some of tht Owen Sound fans. Meaford now leads their group with two wins and a tie game, with one more game a- gainst Walkerton. The Meaford Dukes had the Olympics dizzy with their back checking and when Owen Sound did break through Long, in goal for Meaford, smothered them or «!»• th« shot wa» widt. It was • cruel upset for the Olympics who had obamfpionahip aspirations with two reinstated pros, on the lineup, be- aides high class material and a paid coach. ft is not known wheth«t th« North- ern Hockey League will operate this winter or not, despite the fact that • couple of group schedules are being played. The League has so few teams operating that it is expected to cease operations. The 0. H. A. is too expensive for small town teams to .ioin and operate in, and a league in Ontai>io comprising towns of less than a thousand population is a nec- er.iity if small-town hockey is tc flourish. They tell lots of tales on the editors but this is a new one: The editor of a Kansas paper went to attend a party ?iven by one of his neighbors when just a few weeks before the home had been blessed with a new baby. The hostess met him at the door, and, after the usual salutation, he asked after the baby's health. The lady was hard of hearing, had a bad cold. and thinking he was asking about her- self, answered that, although she usu- ally had one every winter, this was the worst one she had ever had; it kept her awake at night a great deal, and at first confined her to her bed. Then noticing that the editor was act- ing very strangely, she said she could tell by his looks and actions that he was going to have one just like hers. and she asked him to coma in out of the draught and sit down. Midgets Trim Dundalk The Resherton Midg«ts trimmed Dundalk juniors last Wednesday night to the tune of 5-* in th« local arena. The game was fast and clean with only one penalty being handed out, Akitt going to the "cooler" for tripp- ing. Boyd was the scoring ace foi Flesherton, flipping in two of the groals. Flesherton â€" Goal, Ferris; defence M. Johnson, E. Johnson; centre, D Smith; wings, G. Boyd. M. Stuart: alternates, H. Best, L. Piper. G. Akitt F. Patton, J. Cairns. One Million Dollar Increase In Ontario Cattle Exports The Ontario Marketing Board re- ports that during the past calendar year Canadian exports of live cattle to Great Britain were in excess of 50,000 head: more than three times the number forwarded in 1932. On- tario exported some 30,000 animals or considerably more than half the total Dominion shipments. Assuming a mean average- value of $50.00 per head. Ontario's export cattle busi- ness was worth upwards of $1,500,000 to the farmers of the Province last year which is an increase of at least $1,000,000 over 1932. More important to the averagt cattle raiser, however, is the fact that the removal of large numbers of cattle from the home market has con- siderably iijiproved domestic prices. It is not an exaggeration to say that if this export trade had not developed cattle shippers would be facing prices a.s low as 3c per pound instead of the prevailing quotations of around 6c pei pound for top quality animals. The magistrate gazed solemnly at the woman in the witness box. "How old are you madam?" he asked. "I'm around twenty your Honor," she sweetly replied. "Yes, I know you are," lie replied, "but how many years is it since you got around it?" Canada's Trains Fast How do Canada's speed trains stack up against the Royal Scot, crack British flyer, which recently visited Canada? Railway journals show that the Royal Scot's speed on her 401% miles between London and Glasgow averages 52% miles am hour. Until this year this was exceeded on both Canadian National and Canadian Pacific runs between Montreal and Toronto. The Canadian National run of 384 miles in length, was made in six hours flat, and the Canadian Pacific, 340 miles in 6'A hours. This was an average for the Canadian National of 55.7 miles an hour, in- clu(|ing stopis. On the 124-milies Montreal-Smith's Falls portion of its run, made without a stop, the Canad- ian Pacific trains maintained an av- erage speed of 68.9 miles an hour This was known among railway men as the fastest time in the world foi trips over 100 miles. This year, however, the highly competitive serv- ices between Montreal and Toronto have been abandoned and the two lines run a joint service over the Canadian National tracks. The trip is made in 6% hours, at 51% miles an hour. 'Restaurant Patron â€" "Waiter, do you call this an oyster stew? The oyster in this stew isn't big enough to flavor it."
