The Grand Forks curling rink will

history of the city will be held. The
curling Kinks will compete during the
afternoon and evening, n the pro-
gram will be concluded Saturday night
| with d banquet at the Hotel Dacotah.
EN-Mayor Waugh of Winnipeg and
ex-Mayor Berry of st. B%oniface have
sent word that they will head Kinks
| that will come to the city to TAX part
in the bonspiel. Several other Mani
oba Kinks have been invited to at
tend, and they probably will do so.
tai, Hamilton aud Larimore have been
asked to compete, and it Is expected
that they will enter for the events.
Aside from these, q general invita-
ton has been issued to curriers' in
Grand Forks and vicinity to attend

The directors also fixed a scale Of
prices for curling. There are two

sixteen curriers' at a time. The direc-
tors decided to charge 90 cents for
each player per hour. No rink will
be allowed the s of the ice for
longer than an hour, providing there
are other players waiting t o compete.
This action was taken SO as to make
it impossible for any rink to take
charge of the Ice early in the even
ing and monopolize it until closing
time.
The directors Of the curling club
are more than pleased with the sue
cess Of the rink. The enthusiasm
shown is a great deal more than they
expected for SO early in the game, and
they look for a continued increase.
A large number of local residents have
become interested, and they are maxi
ing the curling Kinks their winter
resorts.
