As the ice in the Markdale rink was almost gone and no prospects for more this season, the manager decid- ed last Saturday night to .call togeth- er the two hockey teams, Cherry Grove and Proton Station, who were tied in the playoff for the cup, to se- cure a decision. The game was played in the slush, the result being a 4-1 score in favor of Cherry Grove. Was the Proton team disappointed? well rather and so were their friends, but the boys express nothing but praise for their worthy opponents and congratulate them on winning the series of games, which included four hockey teams, Markdale, Vandeleur. Cherry Grove and Proton Station and incidentally winning the cup. The enthusiastic Proton fans are proud of their hockey team even though they were second best. They fought a fair fight and were not very badly beaten, when a third final gamo had to be played in order to decide the winner. In fact they did wonder- fully well to reach the finals. They never had a coach and they get ab- solutely no practice, only when play- ing a game.

On Wednesday morning she was seized by indigestion, but some treatment and Dr. Ottewell's assistance proved of no avail and she passed away on Thursday afternoos. Your cor. re- grets deeply the passing of this horse as she thought a great deal of her. and especially at this time of the year, when work on the land will soon commence. James Whitcomt Riley was a lover of horses and wrote the following little poem: The Hoss "Love the Hoss from hoof to head. From head to hoof and tail to mane. I love the Hoss, as I have said, From head to hoof and back again. I love my God the first of all. Then Him that perished on the Cross. Then next my family and then I fall Down on my knees and love the Hoss." CEYLON Mr. Jos. Snell of Toronto spent a couple of days last week with his brother, George, and family.

This is one of many interesting facts about children estaiblished by a fourteen- years' investigation by Miss R. M. Fleming, and revealed in » report issued by the 'Medical Research Coun- cil the other day. Other points are that changes in the color of eyes and hair are always to darker, never to lighter shades. Thus, while baby's blue eyes day presently become hazel brown eyes will never go blue.
