I remember it woll. And in 1897 (the first year of the, then North- ern Union Challenge Cup Competi- tion) they beat St. Helens (Lati

ment!) being at the wickets.
This new Yorkshire bowler was shaping well, sending down good length balls and varying his pace, so that, as befitted a new hand, he was treated with due respect | The Yorkshire spectator, greatly pleased, thereupon remarked to his Lancashire friend "he frame's well does 'lad." Suddenly the bowler gave vent to a stentorian shout "How's that"-which appeal for "lba." was promptly answer ed in the negative by the umpire
whereupon the Lancastrian (re-] plying to the Yorkshireman's pre- vious remark) said "Aye and e's been well browt oop an all!
I must add that I think the-So- clety is to be congratulated on obtaining Mr. Brearley as its Vice- President.

The Famous Sauce.
In addition to its "National An- them," Yorkshire is noted for its "Sauce." Non, I doant mean "ip" I'm referring to summat else 'at tickles yer tongue-you've all on yer no doubt seen l'advertise- ment scores o'times-"When yer honour's at steak try Yorkshire Relish!"
Attention was recently called to its merits by questions asked in the House of Commons.upon the complaint of a Member with re- ference to some sauce of foreign origin which was being served there the questioner stating that better sauce could be obtained Tom Yorkshir
Great local rivalries obtain in Yorkshire, as in,,other Countries! -particularly is this the case with regard to Leeds and Bradford. which, as you know, are only ton miles apart. Both are "Cities"-- Leeds having obtained that rank a few years ahead of Bradford, but this fact 'cuts no ice with those who favour Bradford, as ម៉្លេះ។ illustrated by what happened when a stranger who happened to he in Stanningley-situate abour half way between the two cities, but a little nearer to Bradford than Leeds-and who, desiring to take the tram to Leeds, enquired from a Stampingley man whether a car'marked "City" would take him there. The Stanningleyite took his pipe from his mouth, paused a moment, and slowly answered "Nah I'll just try to explain things, seeing as tha seems to be a strang- er to those parts. Rabnd abalit cre there's trams and buses for all soorts of plages like. There's Leeds, Cleckheaton, Dewabra, Uddersfield, 'Alifax and so on, but in Yorkshire, if ever tha sees a tram just marked "City"that's Bradford!"
Before I conclude, I would like to refer to the fact that as its new Vice-President, our Society has gotten a gentleman who hails from Batley. You've all, ne doubt, heard of Batley-its a suburb of Morley! the native town of the late Lord Oxford and Asquith, but that fact does not constitute Batley's only claim to fame, for as far back as the year 1885 their rugger team (known as "The Gallant Youths") won the Old Yorkshire Challenge Cup by beating Manningham in the.
