' Clean Up It has been intimated that the town sanitary inspector will make the rounds of the back yards early in May and citizens are urged to get cleaned up ready for this official visit. A word to the wise is sufficient. Thurs., Fri., Sat'y Apr. 28, 29, 30 Stage Attraction Musical “In Essentials, Unity; I n Non-gssentials. Liberty: In All Things. Clzarity.”_ Elsewhere in this issue is the officâ€" ial proclamation of the reeve of the municipality calling on all citizens to adopt daylight saving time on May lst the date which will conform with the change in the City of Toronto. The announcement will no doubt be greeted with general approval and it is very essential and desirous that all the citizens conform with the re- quest of the council and advance their time pieces on Saturday night. No doubt there are those who still regard with suspicion and distrust this “med- dling” with the clock and grudge han- ding over the extra hour, though we are sure of having it returned to us in the fall. Just now Old Sol makes his appearance long before most of us think of crawling out of our nice warm beds, and by next month and the month of June many will be just nicely getting settled for sleep when the sun is risingâ€"(some exaggera- tion of course). Toronto and many of the towns, cities and villages of this and other countries have found the daylight saving plan a good thing so there is no apparent reason .for any great objection here. The eas- iest way is to forget absolutely that the other time existed and put the brakes on any imaginary speculation as to what time it would be now or ‘in half an hour if we were still on the old time. Daylight Saving Effective Here May lst The ancients who knew no clocks had to depend upon the sunrwe might do worse than imitate them, especial- ly when the earth is bathed in sun-t shine hours before we stir, with only the birds and countless wild and livâ€" ing things of the woods to appreciate the fact. After all that is all that 1daylight saving does. We lament our brief but ideal summers so let us appreciate daylight saving which is nothing more nor less than an oppor- tunity to prolong them. We must keep abreast of Father Time if we would make the most of the gifts Ithat Nature so generously bestows on W.C.T.U. Will Hold A Public Meeting Realizing that one of the means to combat the evil influence of Govern- ment Control is by education along temperance lines the W. C. T. U. is holding a public meeting in the Unit- ed Church Sunday School on Tuesday, May 3rd at 8 pm. Mrs. George of Toronto will speak on scientific temperance, a subject ‘which should appeal to all who are striving to safeguard our girls and boys from this coming evil. :A cordial invitation is extended to all interested to attend this meeting.

Richmond Hill Admision 25 cents. Elected Officers. Team. President W. H. Legge of the Rich- mond Hill Agricultural Society and the other officers and directors have been making a determined effort to have some outstanding public man open the 78th annual fair on May 24. Hon. J. S. Martin had accepted the invitation but about a week ago in- formed the directors that owing to matters of personal business which called him to United States on that date he would be unable to ofiiciate at the opening. The fair board then approached Hon. G. Howard Fergus- on premier of Ontario but have re- ceived a communication from him advising that owing to a previous engagement for that date he will not be able to accept the invitation. It is hoped however that some prom- inent public man will be secured to conduct the opening ceremonies of the historic event. As pointed out last week sports will be featured at the fair this year and there will be track events ranging all the way from 100 yards to two miles with prizes which are worth getting in condition for. Probably the outstanding event of the day will be the softball tournament for valu- able prizes. Fifty dollars has been offered for a first prize for both a. la- dies and men’s tournament and it is expected that there will be a large number of entries. J. G. Routley is secretary of the sports committee. A special prize has been added to the children’s department for the best essay on “Canada” in honor of Jub- ilee year. A prize of five dollars in cash has been given by the Board of Education for the best one from the public school and the society is giv- ing a similar prize for the best one from the High School. A directors meetings was held on Saturday night last and several of the committees met on Monday night. One of the questions yet to be set- tled is the engagement of a band for the day. Applications have been re- ceived from Drury’s Concert Band, North York Band and Stouffville. A Special Committee was appointed to hear the North York and Stoufiville bands during the week.

The “ Follies ” Will Be Repeated Next Wednesday The second appearance of the Rich- mond Hill Follies was very favorably received in the Masonic Hall on Wed- nesday evening when a delightful program was given by the young peo- ple of St. Mary‘s Anglican church in aid of the Girls and Junior Auxiliar- ies. Although it was greeted by a large audience, owing to many confl- icting engagements which prevented many from attending, and in view of ‘the remarkable success of the production by popular request it has 'been decided to repeat the show next .Wednesday evening in the Masonic lHall at the popular price of 25 cents. Anyone who missed the entertain- ment last night and is desirous of enjoying an evening’s good clean wholesome fun should reserve next Wednesday night and take in the “Follies.” It is a rollicking mirthy some entertainment from start to fin- ish and all who took part are worthy of commendation. Part one was in‘ the form of a comedy, “Betsy Baker,” in which the parts were ably taken by Ralph Paris, Olive Paris, Schofield Battersby and Violet Paris. It was a clever comedy with a moral dealing with the affections of a man to his “better half.” Anastasia felt her- self a much abused woman by virtue of- having a husband who was too at- tentive by half; but through a plot of Crummy’s in which Betsy Baker played an important part she was taught a long to be remembered les- son. Lively songs, choruses and dances nterspersed with mirth provoking re- partee with local color featured the second appearance of the “Follies.” Especially appreciated were the num- bers, “Wot Cher”; “For She Ain’t a Bit Like Other Gals;” “The Automo- bile Honeymoon,” and “My Juliet” by ‘Row-me-oh (W. Ward Price) who was the honorary director of the pro- duction and was the life of the show ‘from start to finish. “My Juliet” was a number from last__years pro- gram repeated by " special request. |The personnel of the follies included the following, Misses Margaret Bat- ltersby, Sylvia Battersby, Olive Paris, Kathleen Morris, Vera. Morris, Grace Paris, Herberta Baker, Gladys God- dard and Violet Paris, Messrs. Alan White, Walter Mason, Kenneth Bray- bon, Frank Braybon, Ralph Paris, Schofield Battersby and W. Ward Price.
