Heise son of the late Chris- topher Heise gave a short history of the early Heises, he being a great ‘gTand son of one of the first Heises that came to this country from Pennâ€" sylvania in 1805 settling on Lot 26 in the 3rd Concession of the Town- ship of Markham. The two hundred acres were bought for $1000.00. The east half is still in the Heise name but the west half is now owned by Mr. Harry Bennet; who last year took down the old barn which stood there over one hundred years.

Heise of Victoria Square on Sunday in the shade of a large apple tree when about seventyâ€"fiée decendents of the late Christopher Heise gathered on the old homestead for a social time. Rev. Al- vin Winger led in devotional exercis- es after which several speakers took part in the program. Heése Family Held Reâ€"Union “Through Western Ontario I have made several trips, and here I can ,speak with knowledge, and the show- ing is splendid, and I doubt whether I have seen it much better. The late rains have proved a godsend, and whether there has been good cultiva- tion and tillage there will be out- standing crops. Harvest will be late, but there is no reason why it should not be bounteous. In short, with the corn coming on like it is, there is nothing in the world for the farmers to worry about, and I don’t believe they are,” said Mr. O’Neil. “With Eastern Ontario I am not so closely in touch,” said Mr. O’Neil, “though I have a pretty good grasp on the situation even there, and it looks splendid. They have had re- freshing rains, the fall wheat has come through and‘ ripened up well though unevenly, and is now well cut, and corn is growing like wildfire. What of the crop situation throu- ghout the province of Ontario, now that it is generally recognized that the harvest will be from three to four weeks behind any normal season? The Ontario Department of Agriculâ€" ture, with its finger, so to speak, on he pulse of the country, from the farmer’s standpoint, is optimistic in the extreme, and Assistant Superin- tendent O’Neil, of the Live Stock branch stated that judged by every reasonable sign, the outlook in this province had not in his opinion been surpassed in years. “'ill Probably Be Record Yield Throu- Crop Prospects Area Encouraging RICHMOND HILL, ONT., THURSDAY, AUGUST 12, 1926 ghout The Province Severa‘f méhibers‘HQ'oi'éed Fflgir' gilt?

Gee, Frank Atkinéofiand Secretary Coop- er. It was announced that word had been received from all the members of the High School staff advising that they are willing to accept the board’s salary schedule which provided for an increase of $50.00 per year although ‘they were disappointed that the board could not see fit to grant the $100.00 increase asked for. The members accepted with regret the resignation of Miss Martin, who for personal reasons could not see her way clear to continue on the staff although she appreciated the increase of $50.00 a year offered her.

Others worthy of mention were:â€"Thos. Riley’s garden in Richmond Hill con- tains four which measure 9 feet 6 inches, and one which measures exactly 10 feet; Mrs. Milton Savage reports many of the double variety which measure 8 feet 8 inches. The District Record That this district can grow hollyhocks which for size and beauty will take second place to none others has been plainly demonstrated by the large nu- mber of letters received at this office during the week tel- ling of the remarkable growth and beauty of this flower in various sections of the county. Last week we reported that the garden of Mrs. Campbell at Elgin Mills was adorned with a hollyhock 8 feet 3 inches high. Maple refused to take second place to Elgin Mills even in the matter of growing flowers and Dr. Routley has reported a single pink specimen in his garden which is 11 feet 6 in- ches high. To date this is the record and one which we think will stand for this season.

' 1- t ' v- Councillor Greene wanted to know when the unsightly weeds around the town were going to be cut, and was told that the matter would be attend- zé to about the end of the month. ouncillor Greene also wanted the shrubs and bushes on the west side of' Yonge Street near the southern limits cut down. The other members however, did not think the bushes were so unsightly and nO‘action was taken. In support of his argument Councillor Greene quoted a commer-‘ cial traveller as saying, that Richmond Hill was a village of ideal location and wonderful possibilities but hav- ing the dirtiest streets he ever saw anywhere. Councillor Sloan, hov'v~ ever; depreciated the opinions. nf comm mercial travellers.:,.. v '.i':.i -.‘ The’conditidn of the road on Yonge Street as well as Centre, Richmond and Mill Streets was discussed at some length. The members were un- animous in deploring the present con- ditions but did not feel that any great expenditure should be made this year. It was agreed on motion of Council- lors Sloan and Herrington that Yonge Street, Centre Street and Richmond Street should be patched and that at least a few loads of gravel should be put on Mill Street. Councillor Greene criticized the use of the small grader on streets at this time of year as be said it was without effect and a waste of money. Councillor Baldock suggested that in patching ‘the roads the gravel‘be mixed with tar and pounded into the holes after they had been well dug out. He also intimated that possibly a few less men on the job who would do more work and less leaning against the wagon wheels than in former years would result in benefit to the public. a step was more preferable and less g§ggerous thgp a slanting approach.
