Maclean who had represented that constituency for the past 26 years gave reasons why he did not attend the South York Conservative Con- vention on Saturday. The Association had passed a resolution of censure on him for advocating inlhe House of Commons n. Union or National Governâ€" ment, and that tesolutlon has never been Withdrawn. although Union Government has been established. Mr. Maclean madeastrong plea for National GOVermuent. for prompt enforcement of the conscription law, and for the united action by the people of Canada for the winning of the war. ‘ Mr. Gunn, the Labor candidate, who RronounCed himself u. liuprmrten: of Valter Rollo. the Provi cial leader of 'the Labor Party. criticised the present l government for being tied up with ' the big interests, and against the \ lahoring classest In Eglinton Town Hall on Mondav. five candidates were duly nominated to contest the riding for a lent in the next Dominion Parliament.

Mr. Galbraith also criticised the moneyed interests. and referred to the big dividends of the Ogilivie Milling Co. and the \Viiliam Davies 00. Mr. R. L. Baker pointed out that he was the proper candidate of the Smith York Conservatives, duly select- ed at a nominatiun meeting. He was in favor of a heavy tax on we r profits. and prhper representaliun of Labor. “The fiist interestofevelyone is in the boy; at the front.

He thought Sir Wilfrid Laurier had been unjusth accused of being disloyal. As a matter of fact, Sir \Vilfrid had always said our first duty was to get mule men to the front.

Last Year, as in years past, nearly every C ergyman and School Teacher in Ontario helped to spread- the Gospel of Good Health on Tuberculosis Sun- day and Tuberculosis Day in the Schools. This year, under the auspices of the National Sanitarium Association, en- :lorsed by the leading Clergymen of all Denominations and by the Depart- nent of Education, Sunday, November 35th, and Monday, November 26th, have been appointed for the annual Ibservance of these days. At no time in the history of the world has the necessity for physical fitness been so great as it is to-day. )ne has but to scan the reports of re- iections for active service abroad to note the many that are unfit. “You iave tuberculosis!" has been the pro- aouncement to thousands of young men in Canada and the United States luring the past few months. » A thorough physical examination a year ago might have exposed the weakness and prevented the.develop- :nent of this dread disease; and yet, an spite of such a warning, thousands of men and women will continue to disregard the danger until they too have become victims of Consumption. If you would avoid this disease, pure, flesh air. TUBERCULOSIS SUNDAY ’ wmflé. South York Nomination “In Essentials, Unity; in Non-Essential;, Liberty; in all things, Charity." Canadian War Contingent Association London, Eng., Oct. 25, 1917. Mrs. L. G. mngstuif. Thornhill Springs. Thornhill, Ontario. Dem- Madam.â€"In reply to your let- ter of September 25th. addressed to Lady Perley, I am very glad indeed to explain to you the method by which our supplies _are distrributgd. Each ~of the senior officers at the front is supplied with registration slips (sample enclosed.) From time to time, often several days in succession. these officers in consultation with junior officers. non-coms. and so on. find out wth is needed for the men. These needs vary according to the positions. Men behind the lines ask continually games gramaphnnes. gum and, of course. socks. Men in the frontlines want such things as tnmmy eookers. curry powder, chocolates, soup. cocoa, etc. Others constantly ask for note pager. soap. candles and so on. ' The officer makes up his requisition from the articles on the back of the slip. Signs i] and foiwai‘ds it: tr) our ofice here. As fast; as the goods asked for can be counted, checked and baled (an hour or two) they are despatched back to the unit. and every one and all of the things asked for are sent abso- lutely free of cost, though sometimes the order is a very big one. The only trouble entailed upon the unit, is the neggssity askipg. You will readily understand that this is the only practical way of hand- ling the wox k. \Vere we to send out on our own, without waiting to be told What was needed by the only people who know. that is. the men and offiâ€" cers themselves, there would be con- fusion. We might send soap where cocoa. was iequired. and candles to men wanting chewing gum. but the letting them tell us what they require we avoid square pegsin round holee. It is because everything we send to the men at; the front is entirely free of cost that we have no besitancy in urg- ing the claims of the O. W. U. A., for the vexy strongest support, that the people _in Canada. can; give. I Enclose a. list, of the things sent out by the Associatinn to the men at the “out during September, and I may say that, the heavy months are just be- ginning. \Vhen I tell you that last year from the beginning of November to January we sent, nub nearly 300.000 pairs of socks alone. you will under- stand that the demand upon our re- serve is very heavy. I also enclose a. copy of our monthly bulletin, and you will see what, the Omens themselves say in regard to our work. Hoping that this covers the ground. and assuring you that at any time I shall be very glad to give any further Information possible.

One of Vaughan’s old pioneers, Mr. Abrahjun Smith, passe5t_ atvay lagt Saturday morning. at his home in Almira, Markham Tp. in his 87th year. Mr. Smith was born on Lot 7, Gun. 5, Vaughan. His father Jacob Smith. emigrated to this country from Pennsylvania when the Tp. of Vaughan had only small and scattered clearings, and by unremitting toil made a. com- fortable home for himself and family. The farm was subsequently divided. Abraham settled on the north half. Samuel, the father of Mr. Jerry Smith of this village remained at the old home. About twenty-one years ago Mr. Smith desirous of more convenient church privileges bought“; the ‘Spofi'ord’ farm at Almira. where he died. Mr. Smith was an excellent farmer. an industrious and unassuming man, honest as the day. lulled and respected by all who knew him, especlully by those who knew him longest and pest. A faithful member of the parent; body (or ‘Old’) Mennonite Church he adorn- ed his profession by the life he lived, more than by much speaking. Mr. Smith leaves one son Jacob, on the old farm, and three daughters to mourn his loss. The funeral took place on Monday morning. Nov. 19. to the “716113an Church and Cemetery, Con. 8. Markham.
