SAVAGE The opening of the new public school took place on Wednesday even- ing, January 4th. The architect was Mr. Madill and the contractors were Messrs Batt and Anderson of Midland and the building was erected in record time. It is a fine large four-reomed school with a large gymnasium in basement and rooms for Home and School Club. The whole building was 'thrown open for inspection and the ratepayers and friends were received by the Trustees and their wives and. the teachers. Mr. Harry Smith pre- sided over the progamme, which open- ed with the singing of the Doxology and a dedicatory prayer by Rev. E.R. Young. An able address of welcome was given by Miss Tate, the principal of the school. Miss Tate described the incidents that led up to the build- ing of the new school; the growth of the neighborhood, the increase of chil- dren, the use of “portables” and now the new fine school, of which'the trus- tees, teachers and ratepayers were all justly proud. The school was official- ‘ly opened by Hon. G.S. Henry and he delivered a masterly address upon the progress of education in the Prov- ince of Ontario. Incidentally he de- clared that this was the third school he had opened in this township. This school section had been organized for over a hundred years and a member of his family had been one of the first school teachers. Dr. E.J. Hambly represented the Reeve and Council and most heartily congratulated the trus- tees and people upon their new school. Mr. Hicks reminissed a little about the fine times that the boys had in the little old school, where they learned to “carve their names” and make them famous. Architect Madill told the ratepayers of some of the special ex- Newtonbrook Public School Opened With Fitting Ceremony Prize Winners At The North _ York Christmas Market The North York Christmas Market Was a. very successful event this year, and was striking evidence of the suc- cess and popularity of the Market which since its inception has been gen- erously patronized by producers and consumers. Seasonable decorations through- out the building added brightness to the busy scene, where well arranged displays of their choicest goods show- ed the pride which the producers take in their market The tremendous a- mount of work expended by the farm- ers in the preparation of their exhibits was evident on all sides, absolute cleanliness being a striking feature. Vegetables gleamed brightly, eggs were spotless, poultry of which there was a very large supply, was spick and span, whilst many a: delicately pink little sucking pig wore its blue ribbons with quite a distinguished air. A large exhibit of eggs displayed in its midst samples of egg dishes “nourishing, appetizing and econo- mical.” A striking floral display of red and green was most appropriate to the season. A stand of honey. in jars and combs. with beeswax, also displayed, drew much attention, as did also an appetizing collection of homeâ€"made cakes, cookies, tarts and home-cooked meats. ! The committee responsible for the =arrangements for the Christmas mar- ‘ket; were: President S. Herdman. of Newtonbrok; Vice-President C . R . lJames of Richmond Hill; I.B. Thorn- The one drawback of the pleasing show was the limited space at the dis- posal of the people. Crowds thronged _t__he narrow passages between the stands. The market has growu to such an extent that larger quarters are almost an urgent need in order to find space for the farmers. That even greater development will take place in the near future is the confident ex- pectation of all associated with the market . l L. Wilson, secretary-treasurer of the Provincial Vegetable Growers’ Association, in officially opening the market, asked the co-operation of the T.T.C. and the City in helping to make the market a success. Hon. Geo. S. Henry congratulated origin- ators of the market and thought it was a good idea to bring together the producers and the citizens of Toronto. He also suggested co-operation of the market and the T.T.C. Other well- known figures noted were Ex-Reeve Hicks and Deputyâ€"Reeves Hambly and Phillips. ‘ine New Structure Is Credit To The Community And To The County of York. cellencies of their new school. Rev. E.R. Young spoke of the new and ad- vanced methods of teaching “the young idea how to shoo ” and said that the new school was “on the way" to the perfect school, which called for teaching in practice as well as in theory. Inspector Trench emphasis- ed the fact that education was charac- ter building. Beside these eloquent, instructive and congratulatory addresses, there was a choice musical programme. Miss Milbum rendered a fine instru- mental solo; Mrs. Lewis Hicks sang two vocal solos in her splendid way and Mrs. Shaw and Miss Irene Smith sang a charming duett. The Newton- brook Orshestra provided some excell- ent music and Miss Mary Patterson in her pleasing style rendered several deâ€" lightful readings. Tx‘ustee G. R. Goulding presented a resolution of appreciation to the speakers and entertainers, which was seconded by Rev. E.R. Young and heartin endorsed by the large audi- ence. Then after the singing of the National Anthem, many lingered to further inspect the new and handsome building. The annual meeting of the Newton- brook Men’s Club will take place in the school room of the United church on Friday evening, January 13th. Last Sunday morning Rev. E.R. Young began a series of sermons on the Epistle of Paul to the Ephesians. He spoke of “ How Paul, the Jew, be- came the author of that Epistle and the Apostle of Jesus Christ.” Next Sunday morning his subject will be “How God sees the World;” and in the evening, “Repentance and Fait .” The â€"Womén’s Association will hold ‘ their monthly meeting at the home of l ton, H.

The owners of these birds are generally, very proud in early laying for most of these pullets that start producing so early have not made sufficient body growth and develop- ment. The result is a small bodied individual that lays a small egg, for such an individual very seldom lays an egg of proper size even after it has been laying for several months. Such a bird may lay for a few months then “go to pieces” because lack of vitality. If she should be able to stick to the job of producing eggs, she is a menace to the flock as a breeder, as the chicks she produces are apt to be small and lack vigor. This kind of characteristic should be bred out of the flock rather than in. Where early laying with proper body growth and development is obtained, however, that is a different story, but early laying without this development ought not to be the first consideration.
