SOLDIERS AT PLAY
A friendly Rugby match was played on Seatoun Park yesterday between teams from Forte Dorset and BaUance. -Tho day was ideal, and some good play was eeen. Although Ballance opened well and scored 6 points at tho beginning of the game, Dorset recovered well, and at halftime the score was 6 all. In the 6econd half ■ the ' play was faster and more interesting, and when, the whistlo blew the score stood 9-6 in Dorset's ffivoui. It ia not very often that the "boys" from the forts have an opportunity for sport, and any little tiling to relieve tho monotony of guard duty is very much appreciated by them.
