If a witness has no respect for his oath, kissing the Bible will not make him tell the truth. \^3 !â-  J MT Ey eH, m ^J k^ â-  • GROCERY SFECIALS THIS WEEK l)!nc Uusr IV.lislicd Kici'4lbs. for 25c ;; ^ llillric-^t CilMip.

By periods the score was 2-0 in the first, 3-0 in the second and in the third Flesherton really got going and surpiised Shelburne with four goals while they averted a shut-out by se- curing two for themselves. Flesher- ton's victoi-y on Shelburne ice was a real upset, as the southern town had finished second in the league race and it was not figured that Flesherton had much of a chance. Goals on the round are to count and if Shelburne can over- come a five goal deficit, we will think there I.S a Stana Claus. Thursday night should see a real battle in an effort to tie or win the round by the (rood team from the south. Scorers for Flesherton were: Smith 3, Patton 2, Boyd and McCutcheon 1 each. Proton Takes First Proton Station-Dundalk Bears took the first of the best three out of five .series for the championship of the Semi-Pro League, when they defeated Klesherton Tuesday evening 6-5 in a hard struggle that in spots was very interesting. In other spots both were guilty of shooting the puck up the ice when their own players were behind the blue line and the referees, Baechlcr of Dundalk and Boyd of Flesherton, were kept busy whistle tooting, stopping the play continu- ously. At times both teams would break out with good combination plays that were a treat to watch and at other times they would mill around as though lost. However, both teams checked hard and were tired boys when the game finished. They meet again Thursday night in Dundalk and in Flesherton .Monday night of next week. If a fourth game is necessary it will be played March 12th. Chat.-worth took Dundalk into camp Monday night 6-2 in the first game between the firit and third place team.s in the league race. This will be a trieat handicap for Dundalk to over- come on their own ice Tnursduy even- ing, but stranger things have occurred. It looks from thi.s angle that Chats- worth will honk up with Flesherton In the finals which will commence next week, the winner to take two out of three for the League ehampiotiship. La.st Friday Flesherton seniors put the Georgian Bay Dairy indu.<»trial league tonm to rout when they dofent- (d them om local ice by the score IR-.'). Flesherton took the lead from the face-otr nnd had things ju'etty much iheir own way from then on. Budget Continues oider-in-council the very day it was brought down. It's a long time since I made my fiist speech against cadet training lather than physical training in schools. I think at the beginning the total amount spent was $700,0l>O; then it got down to half a million. Year after year, the members argued for nnd against this expenditure, yet al- ways voted for it, but the deciding factor was the people all across the country. This year, the Hon Tan Mackenzie. Minister of National De- fence, told us that ()2 detachment* of cadets had been disbanded â€" they were no longer wanted. And so he asked the House for only JIIO.OOO. I moved that that sum he reduced by Sl.lO.OOi), and an encoui'aging mnTiher of meinbet's spoke in favor of the money being spent for physical train. ing in school.i, rather than military training. There is encouragement in this circumstance. Each year we wore dofonted on the vote to reduce the amount, and yet in a ten year per- iod public opinion forced a continuous leduction. In this case, defeat meant victory. It says to me that we should not be too easily discouraged on any matter. Paul Martin, the scholarly, pop- ular. Liberal member for Essex-East, argued very convincingly in favor of assistance of national scholarships for outstanding students, financially liable to continue their education. He expressed the belief that childreti ought to be educated, not according to Iheir station but their capacity. And, further, in the complexity of med- ern life, the best training of the best brains was necessai'V in order that n solution to iMV jiroblonis miuhf be found. He showed that Great Brit- ain, Geimanv .lapan. Kussia and the riMiimonwealth of .Australia nnd New '/epiand were not allowing financial embarrassment to stunt tlip develop- liient of their gifted ynulh. IMr. Martin said that the argument .>! cost should not be advanced. H« was referring to the increase of 13 Vi iniilion dollars in the national de- lence estimates. Mr. Walsh, Conservative member from Montreal, seconded the resolu- tion, and there was very co.nsiderable support in the House, but for the lime being it got nowhere. The week has held several enjoy- able events. We heard Lena Mad- esin Phillips of New York City, who is International President of the Bus- iness and Professional Women of 24 countries. She addressed the local club here. She is a remarkably cap- able speaker, a woman of outstanding personality. It was a great joy to have a visit with here. Then, too, the Cabinet Ministers' wives entertained on Wednesday, the one free evening of the week, in the Parliament Buildings, with dancing in the Railway Committee Room and re- freshments served in the Speaker's quarters. Since this was the first such gathering In two years, it was particularly appreciated. I had a thoroughly good time, and the others looked as if they were having just the same kind of a time. On this date I broadcast for the first tinie over an international link- up, Great Britain, Canada and the j United States. Lady Astor speaks | from England, Congressman Caroline O'Day from Washington, the subjects touched upon having been suggested by the sponsors. I hope I may not be so nervous that I gasp and splut- ter. Any broadcast is bad enough, but an international one will be frightful. â€"AGNES MACPHAIL House of Commons, Ottawa Friday, February 26, 1937.
