' It is currently reported that the entire
party returned full of harmony, they
having purchased all songs obtainable
and now they are preparing to become
singers, but not of the sewing machine
variety. But real song birds' without
feathers. That speaks volumes' for tlie
perfect harmony of the Tailor Shop.'
Robt Dundas is making a blue serge
coat for himself of material he purchased
from a merchant Tailor in Salem. He
is doing very well with it and he hopes
to wear it on Christmas day.

and make a suit for our genial school
teacher, Mr. Fickle. Alex will have a
splendid opportunity of displaying his

efforts. So keep your eye on Mr. Fickle;
he will blossom forth in the spring time

ENGINEERS 27 ALL-STARS 6.
The game was played last Saturday
afternoon, an oyster supper being the
reward for the winners, the expense of
which the All-Stars will stand. The
Stars were completely out-classed from
the word "go," the engineers sending
their fullback through for large gains at
any time, although the work of "Chim,"
for the All-Stars quite classed with that
of the best of the opponents.
The game was not anything extra for
team workr but this can be laid to the
brief time in which the teams had to
prepare. There was a great deal of "jaw
fighting," as is customary in an inter
school championship contest, but no out
breaks were recorded.
Officials: Referee, Smith; Umpire,
Teabo; Head Linesman, Charles; Time
keepers, Fulkerson and Mann.
THE "TUNE OF THE ENGINE.
Engineers, both locomotive and sta
tionary, judge of the condition of their
engines largely by their "tunes" when
running. Every engine has a tone of its
own, and an experienced engineer, with
bandaged eyes, could unhesitatingly pick
out an engine to w-hich he was accus
tomed. As a locomotive roars along the
rails, the engineer is always listening,
though subconscious, to its familiar
tune, and if there comes the slightest dis
cord, or if the tone changes, he knows
instantly that something is wrong and
makes an investigation at the earliest
opportunity. He may have no ear for
music, but the change in the tone of his
great machine will be at once noted. -Harpers
