This paper has pointed out. so oftt n the danger to children jumping on cars and ‘phrying about. the switch. that it is .some. of them under the ‘ selling papers and Waiting till the car ‘ possible. parents have ceased to pay any attention to it. If some of the urents have. to pay a fine for their lioys they cannot complain of not being forewarned. The following is the letter from the Railway manager: r \V. H. Pugsley. Esq. Reeve. Richmond Hill. Ont. Dear Sir.â€"-Oonsiderable trouble has been met. by our conductors with boys ] hoarding our cars at Richmond Hill. pretence. of 01:8 under Way and then jumping off. Vlrile our conductors do not. wish to i use force or make it. unpleasant. for any of the young people. I feel that, if this matter is allowed to continue. it will result in a. serious accident. Perhaps a word to your constable in Richmond Hill would warn these people to keep away from the cars.l rrnd under no condition board the cars unless they are passengers. _ I do not wish to take any stringent measures. and trust that. a word to you will be sufficient.

Now that the winter is over. every- one is becoming interested in league baseball. or one of the many summer sports. Unfortunately. owing to the, fact that. THE LIBERAL is only publish- ed once a week. we are unable. to give our readers the sporting news from day to day. 1n order to overcome this difficulty we have made arrangements with The News, Toronto, whereby we, can offer both The News (daily) and THE LIBERAL for one year for $2.50 to farmers and others living outside. of towns and villages. and $3.25 to those living in towns and villages. \Ve can fully recommend the sporting page of The News as being accurate. complete. and rrp~tu-d;rte. Special correspondents report all the Eastern League Baseball games and no sporting event. of any consequence on this continent is our- rr:itt.ed from its columns. Photos of the players. runners. and "snaps" of games. etc, make the page particularly attractive. Send for Sample copies and see for yourself. A post-card to our otl‘rce requesting samples of The News will be promptly attended to. FOOTBALL CLUB ORGANIZED. On Friday evening. April 23. a num- ber of young men met at the home of Mr. U. P.
