swamped the New York grading eX-
perts, and made it necessary to
call on the experts from all parts Of
the country. Hundreds Of men were
sent to New York in answer to the
call; but many of them failed to come
up to the high requirements that are
necessary. Mr.. White, however being
one Of the most thorough going cotton
experts in this part Of the country, had
no difficulty in holding things down
with the New York men.

TUESDAY, JUNE Z, 1910.

THAT is a pretty idea of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy in CIV
ing an annual dinner to the Confeder-
ate veterans on the anniversary OF the
birth of Jefferson Davis, and as the
function is better understood its sig
nificance is becoming better appre-
ciated by the veterans and by the pup
lie. There have been few who have
been disposed to look upon the dinner
as merely a kind of a handout, ana
as such they have not thought well OF
the idea; but that view no longer pre-
walls. 1t is not a matter OF idle taity'
but an unquestionable fact that in
their sphere, and a purely womanly
sphere it was, the women OF the south
were as brave, patriotic and heroic
soldiers as the men, than whom no
braver, more heroic or braver soldiers
ever lived. These women rose to the
supreme height of heroic devotion dur
ing the four years of the bloody strug-
gle, and the pride that the daughters
of today feel in what their fathers and
mothers did then is not only most
natural, but most commendable. And
feeling as they do such regard for the
surviving veterans, if they desire to
give an annual manifestation of that
regard in the pretty way they have
chosen, it is certainly their right to do
so, and from that standpoint every old
soldier may we'll feel honored in ac-
cording them such a privilege. That
the veterans understand the situation
most thoroughly, there is no question,
and neither is there any doubt that
they appreciate in full measure both
the spirit and the act of this delicate
and loftily conceived attention on the
part of the ladies.

he is greatly aided by A. Code one of the
fastest skaters on the team, although he
weighs 100 pounds.
B. NJ. Firth, who made a favorable I'M
preston upon the local experts when he
played here in December, is Ottawa boy,
and was a member of the Ottawa CHI
sides before he joined the Toronto team
He, too, is a speed skater, and few racers
in Canada can beat him on the ice. Ills
accurate shooting when close to the cage
has earned him the reputation of being the
best goal getter on the team.
McSloy, the left wing, learned hockey at
ST. Catharine's, where he played on the
Welland Canal. He has played three years
on the Toronto seven, and won his I
with the varsity lacrosse team: He is the
most effective forward on this years team,
with a fine reputation for boring through
the defence line, fast skating and accurate
shooting. Hanley. the right wing, was a
former member of the al-star Canadian
amateur team. He is noted for his con-
sstent back checking and determined
rushes, and is fine shot from the wings
Armstrong the utility forward, has
played in many of the senior games this
season, taking the place of either Haniey
or McSloy. He is a reliable stick handler
and smooth, fast skater, and one of the
best all around players in Canada.
