The several arrests made on both sides caused intense excitement amongst the spectators : -who really thought they had been transferred to Siberia.

However, the Poplar Creek pupils were more*than a match: fr their opponents, winning the game by a score of 18 to 8. The girls of both teams played exceptionally well. After the match all proceeded to the, school house where elaborate preyara- . tions had been made and an inviting Inch was. served..

Such an outrageous insplt has nok been offered before to any people i an Alberta. The people of Olds should not let this drop. They should find out who gave authority to this man to insult. a respectable law apiding community, who told h him to theeaten to shoot them down and ifino Sitch authority was given, why such a bloodthirsty man is retained in a re- sponsible position.
