Doubtless the two byâ€"laws now being advertised in this paper "will be read carefully by the voters of this municipality. One of the by- laws proposes to raise $5,000 for the purpose of supplying our village with electriclighting. The other by-law is to allow ratepayers the opportunity to repeal Local Option passed six years ago. The sum asked for elec- tric lighting may to seme people seem large, yet if our town is to grow and keep pace with other places we must be prepared to pay a. little higher rate of taxation. Regarding 100-11 option we believe the great m :jpriuy of 0111' men and women voters will on the first day of January cast their votes to “leave well enough alone.” The citizens of Richmond Hill are more sobe' and more orderly than any other place of equal size in the Province having licensed bars, and from a financial standpoint the only mun that would make more money by the change Would be the man who sold the grog. We submit without fear of contradic- tion that no man of any standing in Richmond Hill will venture to state either through the press or on a pub‘ lie platform that he can name a fam- ily here who has suffered on account of the closed bar, during the past six years. ~ It would be easy to name many families that sufi‘ered the pre vious six years owing to the intem- perate use of intoxicants by the head of the household.

The idea itself is very simple, though the results show how true it is that “great oaks from little acorns grow,” $ll.()(-0.00 being realized from the sale of stamps in 1910, a. sum sutficicnt to care for forty patients at the Muskokav Free Hospital for Consumptives. This year it is hoped that $25,000.00may be realized to assist in this great lifesaving work which is ever be- coming more urgent. The cut, in the corner of this article shows the design of the stamp for 1911, though the original is in three colors. This stumpdoes not carry any mail. One wants to remember this, though. as it has been epigramnmtieully ex pressed, nnyinail will carry it. The idea. is for everyone to use this stamp in their correspcmlmioe between now and the end of the year. This plan will serve the twofold purpose of helping to realize the $15.1)L-000 for the aid of needy consumptiws, and will besides ssess an (*(ldi‘lulllillnll value that can lurdly be overestinmLed. The stampq are on rule to-(lziy in hook stores, drug stores, mul ( lsewhere in inmost ‘every town on] city in Canada. Clergy- men, l’uhlic School team-hers, Sunday School teachers, Bible Class walkers. Daughters of the Empire, and Q1 Cnnizations of many different kinds are assisting in th( work of spreading the sale of this lilth stamp. Each stamp costs only one cent. so that it becomes possible for everyone to have some part in this great lattle against consumption.

Savings of a Little Child Dying of ' Tubercular Trouble Goes to Help the Consumptive Poor How true it is in many different wale of lifethat “a. littlechild shall loud them.” “'0 have been shown a copy of a letter written by a. lady of St. John, N,B., who only a month ago lost her little child, a girl of nine years, of tubercular trouble. The mother’s own words tell the story better than it can he told in any other way. he writes to the Secretary of the Muskokn Free Hospital for Consumptives at Urnvenhurst in these words : “ While my loved one was ill, I one night opened some literature from you at her bedside, She asked me what it was, I told her it was a paper asking for sub- scriptions to the Muskoku Free Hospital for Consumptives, and showed her the pictures in the pamphlet. She asked if she could not give what she had in her little sm'ings bank. I told her 'Yes’â€"to give it to the doctor and he would send it. But she was too sick when he came again, so I am enclosing an express order for the amount I found in. the bank, \'iz., $1.79, a small subscription, but trust you will receive it in the spirit in which it was CANADA’S GHRISTMAS STAMP glven."

Every reader knows of the ravages of this disease; how, too often, the breadâ€"winner of the family falls a victim, or the young man or young woman, with a promise of a happy and useful life, is stricken down. This modern Crusade, like the one of old, is a winning fight. The death rate from Consumitlcn in this province shows a decrease of over 25% in the past few years. Nearly 6000 of these poor sufferers have been cared for in our Consumptive Homes in Muskoka and near V’Jeston. Toâ€"day we have 300 patients under treat- mentâ€"patients who, if they had the money, could not through {ear of contagion gain admittance into other hospitals. In the Muskoka Free Hospital alone we are now caring for 156 patients. 128 of these cannot pay a single cent '{or the cost of their maintenance, 15 pay 70¢. per day, 1 pays 57c. per day, 12 pay 50c. or less per day. Money to pay doctors, food, nursing and caring- of these sick ones, is urgently needed. Will your readers help and have'the joy of sharing :11 a work that has the promise of the Master’s reward?
