W. H. S. Cane, of Newmarket president of the North York Liberal Association, was in the chair. Three names were presented to the convention by the nominating com- mittee; Captain Aubrey Davis of Newmarket, Colonel Aurthur E. Kirkâ€" patrick and Harry Sifton. Captain Davis and Colonel Kirk- patrick each withdrew in favor of Mr. Sifton. Mr. Sifton in thanking the delegates for the honor conferred upon him, promised that the achievement of the King government and the momentous nature of the constitutional issue which Mr. Meighen had precipitated as the result of autocratic grasping of power along with the energetic campaign would ensure return of the historic old riding to Liberal allegiâ€" ance. He promised that at least there would be a good fight from the beginning of the campaign to the end. The candidate is a son of Sir Clif- ford Sifton. _ THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY August 5, 6, 7 WILLIAM FOX preterit: JAMES (BUYER corwoooo . 51 Topics---F ables. .

Everyone en- tered into the day’s sport with the real picnic spirit and enjoyed a real day's outing. By no means the least important of the competitions was the baby con- test and deliberations were long and weighty before the judges were able to announce their decision. Thirty- one babies were entered, and gave the judges, Hon. Dr. R. F. Preston, Dr. J. Forest and Mrs. Hulse, a par- ticularly hard task. The first prize a $5 gold coin donated by James H. Forest of Toronto was finally awardâ€" ed to Walter Collins, aged three months, the son of Mrs. J. Collins of Aurora. A special prize of 81 was given to each of the other entries. OAK moors w. 1.

It was a real picâ€" nic and every one from the kiddies to the old folk had a real afternoon's outing. There were all kinds of races for young and old and all events were heartily and enthusiastically en- tered into by the crowd. The speak- ers of the afternoon were Warden Pearson and Hon. Geo. S. Henry and both spoke highly of the “picnic idea” and expressed the wish that it might long remain part of our community life. A feature of the day was the pres- ence of the newly organized North York Citizens Band which supplied music during the afternoon. The crowd was unanimous in voicing their approval of the new organization and the township officers as well as the officers of the band are looking to the future with confidence. A1- ready about twenty-five members have been lined up and practice will be held'every Week at Willowdale. The band promises to be a very popular organization and no doubt will be kept busy with plenty of engagements as its fame spreads abroad./ The officers of the band are:â€" IIon. Pres, Hon. Geo. S.

The weather was ideal and the program of sports and the various attractions was carried out in a manner which reflects credit on all those who had the organization of the day in hand. In the afternoon a girls’ softball tour- ment proved a popular attraction and after several keenly contested games Thornhill and Lansing, old time rivals clashed in the finals. Un- fortunately the game had to be call- ed on account of darkness and both teams agreed to divide the honors of the day equally. Other teams in the contest Were :â€"Newmarket, Richmond Hill, and Maple. A pick up game by the men resulted in a snappy exhib- tion of softball which was much ap- preciated by the crowd. There were races and attractions for the kiddies who had a real days fun. Horseshoe throwing was enjoyed by many of the older men and some close contests are recorded. The various booths had an ample supply of all good things and report a fairly good days business. A large number enjoyed the dancing in the hall in the evening and on the whole the day was voted a most suc- cessful one. Several valuable articles were awarded to the lucky ticket holders, the winners being as fOIIOWs; Hand worked centre piece, Mrs. Thos. Mur- phy, Richmond Hill, silver tea service, F.
