Charity.” “We hear a lot about the wife who has no economic independence," said the speaker, “but to be quite frank my sympathy goes out to the many fine husbands with extravagant wives who are placed in this embarrassing position. Budgetting in any house- hold should be the result of confer- ence between husband and wife. There should be an understanding as to income and expenditures. Lawy- ers say that in their experience the average married man is usually quite willing to provide adequately for his wife and household and it is to be re- membered in this connection that to- day when standards are so high and young Wives demand so much ibis means a tremendous responsibility. The married man needs to have cour- age in whatever walk of life he may be. For the extravagant wife does An enthusiastic and largely attend- ed meeting of the North York Pro- ducer's Association was held in the Market building at the City Limits on Wednesday night. President J. H. Young presided and the various reâ€" ports showed a large increase in the membership but it is hoped in a short time to have signed up all the produc- ers in the district. The membership fee is only.$1.00 per year and may be paid to the secretary Robert Pool R. R. Eglinton. Encouraging reports were received concerning the market which has showed a steady and continuous growth since it was opened on June Encouraging reports were received concerning the market which has showed a steady and continuous growth since it was opened on June 19th. To date there has been 1953 sellers and fees collected abounted to $572.75. It is confidently expected that in a short time the whole venture will be self sustaining. The success of the market has been clearly evi- denced by the increasing number of producers each week and the liberal patronage of customers. Miss Hunter in explaining the law on these subjects made some trench- ant remarks on the extravagance of many modern Wives, on their unduly high standards in “keeping up with the ,Joneses” on‘the tyranny of fashion which drlves many light headed woâ€" men to unreasonable expenditures and on the painful position in which the husbands of such women find themselves when they are faced with the alternative of paying huge bills or of forcefully restraining their wivâ€" es at home by assuming complete con» trol of the purse strings, or of taking these inconsiderate ladies to court. Extensive plans were discussed for the Christmas Market which will be held on Tuesday evening, Thursday afternoon and evening and all day Friday of Christmas week. Committees Were appointed to make all the arangements and com- plete details for a competition in which prizes will be awarded for various articles of produce.

They want careers out- side the home and careers inside. They want support from their husâ€" band and complete control of all they themselves earn and this too very often leads to disaster. I was sur- prised at the conference of Universi- ty women at Amsterdam this year to find this point of View put forward as reasonable. It is unreasonable. The Married Women’s Property Act mark- ed a revolution when it was passed. It is one of the finest flowers of civ- ilization that a man is compelled by law to support his wife and if women now by their unreasonable demands cause damage to this Act by taking an unfair advantage of its provisions they will have only themselves to blame if the legal status of the wife is finally jeopardized.” ‘ Dr. Lillian Langstafl“ at the clpse of the address moved a hearty vote of thanks to the speaker which was seconded by Mr. W. Ward Price and Dr. Rolph Langstafl" both of whom made some humorous comments («11 instances of the “Jonesy” type of wife with whom they had come in contact. A very pleasant feature of the ev- ening was a duet “The Gypsy Count- ess” sung-by Mrs. R.‘ Macdonald and Mr. Ward Price. l Wo'ri Bro. A. c. B. Nic‘ol District Master gave a few remarks on the Orange; Association. A pleasant feature of the evening was the presentation of a Walking Cane to Wor. Bro. J. H. Sanderson to commemorate the fiftieth anniver- sary of his joining the Orange Lodge. Wor. Bro. A. C. B. Nicol made the presentation on behalf of L. O. L. 2368. Wor. Bro. Sanderson replied in a few well chosen words and contrasted the Orangemen of today with those of 50 years ago. A special meeting in the interests of temperance and the good name of the Young People of Ontario will be held in the United Church, Sunday. November 28 at 7 p.m. Mr. A. E. Wall and others will speak. The Young People’s League will have charge of the meeting. no conferring. She just spends. Yet wives have no right under the law to pledge their husband’s credit at all. The husband is required by law to support his wife and that is interpret- ed as meaning. providing the neces- saries according to their status. But it is just here that much of the trou- ble comes in because when a teams- ters Wife takes it into her head to live and dress like a fashionable lady, and a fashionable lady makes up her mind that she must live like a prin- cess both husbands are to be equally pitied because eventually they are likely to land in the courts to settle the subsequent financial difficulties. Annual Election The most successful bazaar in con- nection with the church was held Wednesday afternoon and a very pleasant time was enjoyed by all. Miss Barker sang several solos and the Thornhill orchestra rendered very acceptable music. Rev and Mrs. Fra- lick, former pastor and his wife were present, also Rev. Mr. McIntosh of Richmond Hill. The bazaar was op- ened by Mrs. Henry and the proceeds amounted to over two hundred dol- lars. Thornhill L 0. L. Officers s iiii Elsewhere in this issue is the officâ€" ial announcement of the opening of the Bedford Theatre situated on North Yonge Street at Glen Forest. The new theatm is modern in every re-- spect and is handy for the people of the North Yonge Street district as it is only three blocks from the ter- minal Radial station at the City Lim- its. The large number of fans from this section who have freely patron- ized the Capitol and have come to re- gard it as their own ideal home of en- tertainment now have another up-to- date theatre to serve them. The bus- iness foresight of the management in providing such excellent theatres for the people of this section is sincerely appreciated and the subject of much favorable comment.
