Encountering but little difiiculty they came out on top of the light for the Hamilton Cup, defin- itely laying claim to it by virtue of romp- ing home from the K.-W. hunting grounds with a 19 to 2 victory carefully tucked away and winning the group championship A mn-rvs for the second time in two years. With this scalp safely stowed away in the o-ld Wigwam, out went :the noble hunters after a few higher heads and stepping out to meet them with heads flying high came St. Jerome's t.o give battle in the semi- final round in WOSSA. The local head hunters donned their regalia and went out to do or die. They did not die. 'Nough said. St. Jerome's went home itrying to fix an alibi but failing to account to the pow-wow that night how it was that they came out on the short end of 12 to '11 count. It took no time for 'the local can- nibals, oft-times called gridders, to search for better meat. And lo, in the distance their loomed that far-famed tribe of head- hunters who have swept the province from end to end many and many a time--Sain nia. But something slipped up and after one pow-wow and another over a tale since oft told it was discovered that Galt could continue no longer after scalps and must put away their hatcheits for another year, since through one reason and another it was impossible for them to encounter the Western tribe. To make this up though at a heap big conference of the mighty chiefs of WOSSA, Galt was pre- sented with medals announcing them as finalists in WOSSA, thus ending a season of easy scalping that will long be told to the papooses in the wigwams to encourage them in many years to come to go out and bring in a good day's hunting as their fathers of many moons ago did. But while the big hunters had good hunting the little chiefs could find nothing and in six encounters failed to replenish the pan- try on any occasion after a good day's fighting, but as the saying goes, they done themselves right noble. They fought with big hunters time and time again and proved to one and all that some day they will be able .to take the places of the present big chiefs, for can they not point out that some of the big hunters when they were little chiefs, that Kitchener beat them 96-0 and now they come home with many scalps. And so the season's hunting was successful, yea more than that, it was bountiful with the bouquets ll.,-2 gf , ,. -.,... ,..-.Y- f,-- ,, . i-. , Q-5--- .. ,. f f iv' ' M - ,,-,.- i -v i i .-.- .i , . ---- ,rv 64

2 SEMP , ' PARATSJZA E U L. A .1 l practice, the Corps is fairly proficient in all deparltments. . In the Laura Secord competition the team although not as successful as last year's team, won sixth place in the dis- trict with a score of 219 out of a possible 250. The team was composed of Major Dando, Capt. Dietrich, Lieut. Campbell, D. M. Tutton and Pte. Prestwich. The team for the D.C.R.A. Winter Ser- ies is made up of Major Dando, Capts. Dietrich and Kemp, Lieutenants Camp- bell, Burden and Chapman, Drum Major Tutton, Sgt. Head, and Ptes. Coppel and Prestwich. T'he January and February matches have been hel-d and the results show some fine marksmanship. In the Imperial Challenge Shield Com- petition, Dando, Dietrich, Tutton and Prestwich received the rifle with star award for a score of 90 or over out of a possible 100. Martin and Campbell with scores between 85 and 90 received the rifle award. PARA TU5 ' A notable achievement of a member of the Corps is that of Drum-Major Tutton in winning t'he Galer Hagarty Memorial Trophy. This trophy is given for the cadet having the highest aggregate score in the D.C.R.A. and Imperial Challenge Shield competitions, and has only once before been won by a member of the local Corps, Major Alex. Robb winning it in 1927. A church parade was held Sunday, Nov. 10th, at which a fairly large number were present. The Corps also took part in the unveil- ing of the War Memorial in Queen's Square on Armistice Day. The Hon. Don- ald Sutherland, Minister of Militia, was present and the service was very impres- sive. The following day the annual Ar- mistice service was held in Tassie Hall. The Corps is now looking forward to the approach of better weather conditions in order to train outside in preparation for the inspection, which will probably be held some time in May.

But no we won't praise him here, words could not bring before your eyes the full benefits of his work. Suffice to say that to him should go a big share of the captured scalps and the mere knowledge that he was respon- sible in turning out one of the best teams, if not the best team that the Galt Colleg- iaite ever possessed will probably be enough for him to smoke during the long -off-season without anyone trying to re- plenish it while he sits at ease in his Wigwam and thinks of the fall of good hunting.
