This section takes on the Langstafl‘ or Reesor section of the county highway passing through Markham village and along the 6th Concession, Pickering to Brooklin. The expectation is that this road, be- ing a more direct route will divert a large portion of traffic going east and west from the Kingston road and ‘Hamilton and Dundas highways which ‘are badly congested.

Westbrook, chairman of the finance committee, at the ses- sion of County Council this week. “I have gone over the estimates very acrefully and checked the reâ€" ceipts and expenditures," declared Mr. Westbrook. “The best we can do is 7.45 mills as compared with 6.6 mills last year. The increase in the rate is due to an increased expenditure of $40,000 f0? schools, $24,000 for roads and $15,000 for charitable relief.

In this town of ours it is not an un- common thing to hear 'someone re- mark how dead things are; nothing doing at all, they say. In my opin- ion Mr. Editor such talk is very det- rimental to any community and is discouraging to those who are trying to carry on the various lines of ac- tivities. If there is not more doing a good deal of the blame can be cred- :ted to the general public who accord very poor support to the boys in their games and sports. When some of the boys give up their time, energy and very often their money in order to keep good healthful games going which will provide amusement for our boys and keep the community on the map of the baseball world, the sup- port from the general public is very disheartening. On June 15 a league game was played which cost $14.00, ‘being $8 for an umpire, and four dol- lars for baseballs besides advertising. A collection was taken up which en- riched the treasury to the magnifi- cent extént of six dolalrs and forty cents. On Friday a splendid junior game was played which was a credit to the boys and the collection totalled the sum of $2.28. Surely this Sir :â€" is some encouragement for tho’se who are trying to promote sport. Any re- asonable person can easily see that a club cannot long exist under such conâ€" ditions. It costs MONEY to buy bats and uniforms which we have had for five or seven years and the stock of equipment on hand is badly in need of replenishing. It is a recognized fact that all boys have a, certain amount of energy and like a steam engine need a safety valve to let ofl’ the surplus. If the leaders of the community do not provide that necessary safety valve or if it is not provided in good healthful recreation and amusement something is bound to blow up. What can be a better solu- tion than baseball or some such or- ganized games? If some people instead of writing letters to the paper criticizing the boys for shooting crap or playing pok- er and standing on the street corners ‘letting off firecrackers would get be- Phone 53 Richmond Hill Something new in Oxford and Four-in- hand ties . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 50c. to $1.25 See the new summer hats in English Felts and Lounge Styles in White and Colorsâ€" prices from . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $3.95 to $5.25 A nice range of Fancy Handkerchiefs from . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15c. to 25c. each.

Letters From the People Buy At Home And Save Your Car Fare. Editor Liberal, SPECIALS FOR JUB‘ILEE WEEK. I867 â€" I927. Mrs. Norman Batty hind the boys, support them in their endeavors "by at least a decent collec- tion at the ball games it would in my opinion be a whole lot better for the general welfare of the community. iThe crowd at the first game mentioned ‘was large enough for a $25 collection butâ€"well it takes a lot of nickles to make that amount of money. I main- tain Mr. Editor that if we can make good sports out of our boys we will make good citizens of them. That fact has been proven time and time again and our boys are perhaps no better but they are certainly no worse than boys anywhere else, and I've always found them a mighty fine lot of fellows to deal with when you get ito know them. I trust that this may induce a few to loosen up at the next game the boys have here. Thanking you for the space, I am, The veterans of North York will celebrate the 60th anniversary of Con~ federation by holding a midnight pat- riotic and devotional service at the Aurora War Memorial on June 30th and July lst’ next.
