Development of Transportation in York Article No. 6 Changes in modes of transportation have been so grad- ual that we scarcely notice them. To really appreciate What is happening one must study the situation. The fol- lowing remarks by Mr. R. E. Millett are a striking example of the ever changing phases of the problem. In 1925 Mr. Millett succeeded Mr. Thomas Foster as a City of Toronto representative in the Toronto & York Roads Commission and the Commission, on their first tour of in- spection, following his appointment, inspected particularly “M “Ma Px-nm Qnt'mn to Jackson’s Point. After the inspec- appvun’u, -v.._ u the road from Sutton to Jackson tion Mr. Millett said :â€" For over forty years COVERING CANADA’S BEST SUBURBAN DISTRICT Wheat Cutting In York Article No. 7 The commencing of harvest in York is synonymous with the first wheat cutting. This summer we frequently hear it said the “season is very late.” ‘ - In conversation with Mr. Percy Quantz, Farm Superin- tendent of the Industrial Farm, Langstafi‘, he gave me the dates of wheat cutting on the farm at Langstafi‘ in 1918 and since a study of these dates would indicate that al- though the season is late it is not much later than‘ in re- cent yegrs. Vol. XLVIX. l'. lVLlllCuu uunu . For over forty years I have been coming to Sutton West and travelling the roads of York. When I first came to this district, with horse and buggy, Jackson’s Point was a port and steamboats and sailboats delivered grain and merchandise and the output of the sawâ€" mills was delivered by boats and teams. The roads were improved and I saw the freight wagons to Newmarket and Uxbridge replace the boats. #. .. 1m ,,,,, 1- Dan“.an kniH 'Frnm replace ulc uuu vu- The Grand Trunk Railway built from Stoufi'ville to Sutton and Jackson’s Point and the freight teams gave way to the steam wag~ ons.

In fact they have already made large inroads into the revenue of the electric railway, and may soon supplant them. The aeroplane may be seen almost any day flying over the fields of York. If not yet a common form of transportation, it is in any event an established form. In a space of forty years, five and per- haps six different modes of transportation, four of them now obsolete, a wonderful trans- formation. The development of transportation in York is characteristic of the development in Ontario. Of all the changes, political, social or economic, great as they may have been in, the past one hundred years, none have equal- led in results the development in transporta- tion.

This time she buys steers in “Rustling for Cupid,” which is now showing at the Capitol Theatre, the popular North Yonge Street movie house, and is made‘ to appear later in the light of a rustler. It has been several years since Miss Stewart took a whirl at the cattle market and since she closed her last cow deal she has been in the South Seas, where she starred in “Never the Twain Shall Meet.” Howevtfl‘l the steer business was not entirely new to her. She dealt in cattle in “The Fighting Shepherd- ess” and made one of filmlands mat- rimonial screen successes out of the business just as she does in “Rust- ling for Cupid.” “Rustling for Cupid” is Fox Films’ version of Peter B. Kyne’s famous story of the romantic ending of the New Mexico cattlemen’s feud. IL was directed by Irving Cummings, creator of “The Johnstown Flood," a Fox Film which set a new 1' spot for cinema productions. George O’Brien has the masculine lead and others in the cast are Rus- sell Simpson, Edith Yorke, Herbert Prior, Sid Jordan and Frank Mc~ Glynn, Jr. Promotions Form II to III.
