Philomel at A ictoida Park' last Saturday afternoon. North Shore were two up on the sai - „rs when Lewis, the navy left wing, reduced the lead by scoring a brilliant o-oal. The spectators were quite pronared for the numerous handshakes bestowed on him by his clubmates, nit when Heatlev went- across from the other wing and kissed Lewis on the brow, the novel form of congratulation used hearty laughter. - Boyish exuberance run riot led to the appearance of live young lads at the Juvenile Court, Hamilton, on charges of causing a nuisance by beating keho-,-eno cans~on the occasion of a marriage least at Hamilton Last. Three of tho lads were further charged with wilfully damaging the gate and letter-box on tho property of the bride’s parents, it being stated that they had lifted the gate off its hinges and amused themselves bv jumping on it and also on the letter-box'. The truant officer said that although wanton damage to the gate and letter-box was not to be tolerated lie did not take a very serious view of Ihe “tin-kettling.” For beating the tins each boy was admonished and discharged, and on the charges of mischief Hue three culprits were admonished and their parents ordered to i":t\ the aiur'.uit: ■m tka d uimge 2es.
