Sanderson nn Tuesday evening and presented their Chaplain. Rev. J. Vickerv, who IS about. to take his departure for a new field of labor, with a handsome goldheaded ebony cane. The presentation was ac- companied by the following address which was read by Mr. T. F. McMahon, the secretary of the club. Richmond Hill, June 30th, ‘96 To REV. J. VICKERYâ€" It is not olten that a curling club meets at midsummer, because they seldom have occasion to do so. And we are de- parting from the usual custom to-night, not because the wintry element has seized us and made us cold. For to-nightl we feel no chill of body, and least of all no chill of soul. For our feelings were never warmer towards you than at present. And this accounts for our meeting. We are here to say farewell to you as a member of the Richmond Hill Curling Club. \Ve regret to say that the duties of your calling take you from our midst For in losing you we are losing a highly honored member, and one who we all admired for more things than one. We admire you because you always aimed at the tee and sent your curling stones straight to the mark. So in your influence. Like your curling stones, you are straight-forward, your influence was aimed at the tee of our character and has come straight. Then we admire you again because you seldom made a hog. This showed strength. It showud that you did not stop half way to the goal, ‘ nor do things by halves. It symbolized your strength of character. It made us feel that you were solid and unwavering for the right, and we like this in any man. And last of all. we think you are a good sweeper, you are very active with the broom, and allowed nothing to ac- cumulate which would keep your curling stones from the mark, and you have dis- played this characteristic everywhere. Nothing has been allowad to keep _ your influence from reaching men. Your course has been kept. clean. You have been active and thorough to this end, and you stand toâ€"night among your associates esteemed and honored by all. wuyv_...- ...__ __ , We regret your departure, and when you are gone we hope you will remember us as very true friends. We ask you to accept this Cane as a memento. Look upon its meaning, not upon its value, and let it remind you that of all your friends the Richmond Hill Curling Club are not the least sincere. Signed on behalf of the club, P. H. Puasmv, Vice-Pres. T. F. MCMAHON, Sec’y. After the address was read, Mr. H. A. Nicholle, treasurer of the club, made the presentation with a few choice and ap- propriate remarks, referring to the enâ€" thusiasm of Rev. Mr. Vickery as a curler, and to the many pleasant hours spent to- gether in the rink. Rev. Mr. Vickery, although taken completely by surprise, made an able and eloquent speech, in which he referred to many pleasing incidents of the game of which he was so fond. He thanked the members of the club for the respect they had always shrwn him, expressed his conviction that such harmless recreation as curling was good for the refreshment of strength and spirits, and thanked the doners for the beautiful present, saying he would always look upon it as One of his most valued gifts. 77v. .nn,| mi A private picnic was held in the pines last Frlday evening by the young people of the village. Among others who were present. were Miss Nettie Forster. of Newmarket, and Mr. W. Brown, of Richmond Hili. â€" “nun. Luna-nun...- “n... Last Sunday evening Rev. E.

The best wishes of the circuit. go with him to his new field of labor. u n An Miés Ada Thompson has resigned her position as assistant teacher in the Pub- lic School. _ _ nu Nuuv v.- Miss Lillie Clarke,of Toronto,is spend- ing a few days with her friend, Miss Eva. Johnaton, and Miss A. Gohu, of Mark- ham, is visiting at Mr. E. Andrews’. Maple mm The roads in the village have been much improved by the loose stones being removed from them. The annual strawberry festival held yesterday and evening (Domimon Day) in connection with the Methodist. Church was as usual 3 great success. The shower early in the afternoon settled the dust, making it very pleasant for the visitors. The attendance was very large, the tea was excellent, and the entertainment was interesting from beginning to end. No cusier spot need be secured for such a gathering. The church grounds are nicely sodded, there are lots of shade trees, and the space is just sufficient to keep the crowd in close quarters. The ‘ entertainment was given in front of the ‘ church, the Rev. A. Bedford, superintendent, occupying the chair. After a. few introductory remarks by the chairman he called upon the various pertormers who were to take part in the programme, the greater part of which was given by the Richmond Hill Band. Those musicians more than pleased the large audience by their many contributions which were ap- propriate and well rendered. Vocal selections were given by Prof. Dennison, Measrs. A. S. Savage. A. J. Hume, and J. T. Shunk, all of which were highly appreciated. The latter, whose songs were of a humorous nature, was forced to respond to sevelal encmes. The addresses by Rev. A. P. Bvace, Rev. C. A. Camp- bell, and Mr. F. W. Garvin were patriot- ic, and well adapted to the day that was being :elebrated. '17}; proceérrlvaigf the festival amounted to about $160. Late returns from different parts of the Duminion give Mr. Laurier a. majority of 23. The parties now stand as follows:â€" Liberals . . . . . . 118 Conservatives . . . 84 Independents Patrona............ Liberal majoritv over all . . . .... 23 Total majority against Government” 45 According to the ofiicial returns at) far as in the standing of the parties is as above, while the position of the provinces is as follows :â€" Ontario . . Quebec ....... New Brunswic Nova. Scotia . 1’. E. Island ..... Manitoba . . British Columbia We feel sure that all who were at the garden party at “ Hillcrest” on the evening of Thursday, the 18th of June, had a good time. The weather was fine and everything passed otf harmoniously. The refreshments were provided in bounty, and were daintin served and much enjoyed. . "u. n - I "A: n”... “J r,-_v The Richmond Hill Baud played a large number of pieces, all of which were highly appreciated. In fact, the music was excellent, and we do not wonder that the Richmond Hill Band is greatly in demand. The chair was taken by Mr. Ernest Coombs, M. A., Principal of Richmond Hill High School, who also contributed one number to the programme. But those who gave the most of the pro- gramme were Misses Smith and Brook, of Toronto, and Miss Duncan, of York. All these ladies, both in singing and in reciting, performed their parts well and were loudly encored; Every part of the programme was a treat. and the Heedford people are to be congratulated on the success they scored. Mr. and Mrs. Leek deserve much credit for making the party a succes, for be- sides throwmg open their house and grounds for the occasion, they had no- glecied nothing which would add to the pleasure of the visitors.
