The comic readings by Mrs. Bilbrough, of Aurora, added life to the meeting and the fine solos by Mrs. Tebbs, of Burlington, who is a niece of Mrs. W. H. Legge, were greatly enjoyed. I A forty foot pavement with curbs and gutters is now assured for Yonge Street through Richmond Hill from Baldock’s Garage to the northerly li_ mits. Petitions sufficiently signed for this work were presented at the council meeting held on Monday even- ing and were accepted by the council. The contract will be let to the Warren Paving Co. and every effort will be made to speed up the work. A petition was also received for the construction of a sewer from the north end to Dufferin Street on the East side of the roadway and was accepted. It will be constructed as a local im- provement the same as the extra pavement and curbs. The regular inonthly meeting of the Oak Ridges Branch of the Women’s Institute was held on Wednesday afâ€" ternoon of last week at the residence of Mrs. W. H. Legge, Jefferson.

The shoes we sell meet every individual demand. They are smart looking, of the very best quality and in endless.vari- ety. We guarantee satisfaction. The members of the council were unanimous in the opinion that it was regretable that a real job could not be made by having the wide street and curbs extend all the way through the town. The council feel so strongly on this matter that they Will give the residents in the south end of the town another opportunity to either accept or reject a petition for a forty foot road. 1 JOB PRINTING i The LIBERAL job printing plant is equipped to tunr out the very finest job printing.

If some of the visitors to the big convention at Winnipeg- this week Iiad taken in the plowing match their would have seen some real contests for leadership. ' An energetic official of the York County Association is E. M. Legge of King who is the treasurer of the joint organization. He is a commercial traveller by calling but knows a thing or two about good plowing and always takes a keen interest in all matches. Of all the jobs in connection with the big event it is conceded that the teams committee had the most diffi- cult. Robert Thompson chairman, and John Breakey vice-chairman had a very difficult task and devoted a great deal of time and effort to the work. The exhibit of the Hydro Electric power Commission is worthy of par- ticular mention. It is in charge of 'Mr. Purcell and includes a threefold exhibit of electric labor saving mach- inery for the farm home, the dairy and the barn. The hydro has brought within the reach of the farmers of this [province every modern conveni- ence which tend to make farming less of a drudgery and much more attract_ We and profitable. As one farmer who has hydro fixtures in his barn re- marked “it’s so darned comfortable in the stable I kind of hate to leave it and go in the house.” Plowmen on the first day reported that the land especially for the stubb- le classes was not just what might be wished for at a plowing match. It was reported that there was a great variation in type of soil and some twitch made real good plowing some- what difficult. However it was as fair for one as another and no-one was complaining. Col. Harry Cockshutt was a visitor to tho match on Tuesday and made the generous offer of a special medal to every plowman competing, who fin- ished his land. Mr. Short of Woodville showed his enthusiasm by bringing his team with him a distance of over sixty miles. If there were more like Mr. Short the job of the teams committee would not be so difficult. The local committee and the mem- bers of the directorate of the provin- cial Association meet every night in Richmond Hill. R. J. Rogers local representative of the Ontario Department of Agricult- ure has shouldered a great deal of the responsibility of the match by virtue of his office of secretary of the com- mittee. He has worked hard for the success of the match and deserves a great deal of thanks. Despite the large crowd and the many activities on the ground; n: ac- cidents have‘occurred to mar the big event. Among the enthusiastic plowmen present are Peter Morrison and his son Malcom from Eldon Township. Mr. Peter Morrison is a veteran of the old school and has done much to en- courage good plowing in his home County of Victoria. People who park on the roadside should bear in mind that it is prohibi- ted and also that their patronage would be appreciated by the Christie Street Branch of the Canadian Legi- on who have charge of all parking. Local hotels are well filled and several homes in Richmond Hill, Langstaff, Thornhill and surrounding district have been opened as accom- modation for visiting plowmen. D. A. McFadyen of Lorneville, a di- rector of the Provincial Association arrived on the scene on Tuesday. He is a first; class plowmen and takes an active part in the Victoria County Association. He is an exâ€"reeve of Eldâ€" on Township. The billeting committee had a busy time the first night locating accom- modation for plowmen and their teams. “It was a good match, but I’ve seen larger in both Vaughan and Scarboro in the old days” said an old timer on Tuesday night. Exhibits at the Plowing Match Among the local exhibitors at the Provincial Match in the industrial section are two of Richmond Hill’s progressive business men namely J.A. Greene of Richmond Tailors and W.G. Baldock. IRVINEâ€"JENKINS - A very pretty wedding was solemâ€" nized at St. John’s church, Jeflerson on Tuesday, September 27, when Grace, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Jenkins, Elgin Mills, was married to Mr. W. C. Irvine of Toronto. The cer_ emony was conducted by Rev. Soanes after which there was a reception held at the home of the bride’s par- ents.
