DENNISTON NOTES
(Dm own Correspondent). Em lire has got the people crazy on lln l Hill. “Euchre, Euchre’’ is all yen can hear; also, “What is the prize to-night?” Of course, they never think that the Miners’ ITiion pictures will give them a prize for attending theirs. The Pictures’ Committee along with the rank and tile, arc l building up a fighting fund for the time when tli“ big boss comes along to give us another bump; and we have to prepare for him. r i’he <’aly way w ( > can do this is to patronise the pictures, where one will get real value for one’s money. I do not. for one moment, want anybody to think Hint I w’ant to stop the euchre -not on your life! But 1 say that a < ttclire once a fortnight is enough. 1 hope the party who are running the tournament will give this their earliest consideration, before it is too late, when th,, big boss k’liocks at the door. 1 would suggest that the Hockey Club run a euchre tourney once a week, and the Boxing Association the next week, so ns to give everyone a fair and spun re “go ’ ’. r lTie Pictures’ Committee, who are looking after the interests of the members, are getting the best pictures Io be scre(».ietl in the country, so it is up Io the members to give' a lair share of the patronage f o them . Tlx 1 Millerton Communist Group, under their teacher, P>en Davidson, are giving a series of lectures every other Thursday night for those who do not understand Communist views; so come along a*nd hear what they have to say, . You will be given ample time to reply to each speaker, and the best of hearink's - Some people have got it into their heads that the Labour Party are not getting a good hearing because the bends of the Union are Communists? , What if they are? There is plenty of room for the Labour Party to start a branch. The-n, after this gets started, a debate can be held monthly, when each speaker could put his views forth to educate the wage slaves who cannot get on the platform and speak. A while ago, Mr Mclntyre said at a
meeting of the Buller (’ounty Council that the Millerton roads are b.i a worse state than they were live years ago. How about the County Council putting their heads together and jiaving the streets with blocks of wood! Last week, Rangers Hockey Club met Granity on the Rec., and won by six goals to nil. (>.i Sunday last Thistle tried themselves out against Denniston. The game was unset by a strong wind com ing from the Hill across tin* field, making it hard for the players to control the bull. Sand and dust could be seen bv the spectators “mountains high.” Thistle proved victorious by one goal to nil. but the spectators did not see the play very well.
