This year promises to be the most important in the history of rowing oven though there will be no trip to Henley there will be besides the be Gattas in Winnipeg the Canadian Hen Ley and the National regatta at Sara Toga to make up a splendid summer programme. The big event in rowing circles is the Canadian Henley will be held at St. Catharines August 4 and 5, which is a week later than the National at Saratoga. The Advance ment of the National dates ahead of the Canadian Henley will mean that there will be fewer entries from can Ada to Saratoga and fewer entries from the United states to the Canadian Henley excepting for a few of the Border towns where they would come from in any event. I Winnipeg oarsmen will play a dig part in this regatta so will the Lake of the Woods etc., etc., look out for a Banner year.

Winnipeg live Chat football association to control soccer game organizations formed in Ontario and other provinces will be asked to championship James will be done away with and All inter provincial games will be under its jurisdiction. A live football association to control the soccer game in the provinces of Lin Dominion. Such an organization has already been launched in Ontario and the pro of Manitoba Saskatchewan Alberta and British Columbia to he West and those to the East will be Iskeni to fall in line. At a meeting of the provincial football association held in Edmonton the subject the people s Shim. The excuse of much acrimonious being hurled at or. Parker. A of rules were drafted for the people s shield Competition. These rules will be sent to the president of every provincial association in that Dominion. If endorsed by everybody rules will then to Given to the trustees of the shield and if these Kentl men a not wish to Abi do by the the same the clubs will ignore people s shield in future. It will also be requested that the shield be turned into a Challenge trophy Vind the comps Tiniou of. Held in the City of the learn that holds it. In this connection it May be stated that a proposition was made at the annual meeting of the Ontario foot bal association in Toron o that promptly acted Upin and should result in untold Benefit to the game throughout Canada. It was decided to form a representative Cana Dian soccer association that will undertake the operation of All inter provincial games and the that have hitherto pulled off alleged games must step out or get Busy in some other line More in keeping with their ideas. It is purposed to have All the pro Vinces in Canada join together for the encouragement of soccer football. Seldom does a year pass in Winnipeg that the Fate of professional baseball does not Jiang in the balance but in no season has. There been so much As the present. In but a few Days the opening of the season is at hand Ana Van at the present moment Winnipeg is without a team and representatives of he club Are chasms up a manager and players and nothing definite has been decided regarding the composition of the league. A meeting is to be Ai. Foose jaw to Morrow and when it is Over even then the Western and the astern clubs May still be at variance. Winnipeg has not bothered herself very much concerning the Canada league and she can hardly be blamed for not Loving it. The Alt to grown too big to play with Calgary and Edmonton and the like and it will be Many years to come before the population of these Western towns will be Large enough to make an All Canadian Western league a paying proposition. The fans May be sore that nothing has been decided and that even at this late moment Winnipeg is. Not worrying herself but it must be hard even for the directors to take the matter at All seriously More particularly As they know t a Case of a sinking ship. F t the most important matter to be decided at the meeting in Moose jaw will be that regarding the composition of the league. Just at the present moment Winnipeg Brandon Calgary and Edmonton four thriving make up the circuit and Moose jaw is crying of be let in and Saskatoon is willing if it is a big if All right for concessions will have to be made if the Berry pickers Are to be taken in but this is very doubtful. Both Winnipeg and Brandon Are very anxious to have the league composed of there can be no doubt despite what others May say that without Moose jaw and Saskatoon there will be no interest whatever and the league Wolfl blow up before the close of the season. Savage of Calgary says More Money will be made on a four Clu proposition but he has another think coming. Just figure out for a Momen what May suppose Winnipeg has a weak goodness know where one is coming from the fans will not support it and with a poor at Tendance in Winnipeg the Western Canada league will certainly not pay 4gain even supposing that the maroons have the Best team they Ever had n one wants to see them play for a whole week against the same team an something More Savory than their old friends Brandon will be needed to Drai the crowd though games with Calgary and Edmonton might draw. But again there is another birr if for if either of these teams should take up to Tail end position Only the most Rabid fans will keep the bleachers. Calgary and Edmonton must know very Well that without Winnipeg say cannot make of a Success of the Western Canada league and it certainly is ridiculously funny to read what they will do and what will not if Winnipeg does t do this and does t do that. Winnipeg has had a Deal More experience in professional Ball than has had pros Dent Savag a and those other Western magnates and knows what she is doing All right without being instructed. Sam threatens to put. A team in Winnipeg himself if the maroons Don t hurry up and that is the biggest joke yet. You la always remember the satisfaction you get with a fit Reform suit you can t judge pleasure by Price. To Kif your old Briar pipe for think of the hours it has lightened the Comfort it has Given. Would 50e or a Dol Lar s difference in Price keep you from getting another just like it ? the Cost is forgotten but the satisfaction remains. So it is with fit Reform suits. It is the Stylo the Graceful ease and pleasure in wearing you remember. The satisfaction you have always had in fit Reform will be doubled by the new Spring styles. They Are the finest Gar ments that fit Reform has Ever made and Are certainly the highest Grade of hand tailoring Ever completed in Canada.
