Richmond Hill Known Beyond The Seas That Richmond Hill, Canada, is known even beyond the bounds of Canada and of the American continent was evi- denced by the receipt this week of a postal card by J .‘H. Dunlop from Ch. Narangajavana of Si- am, requesting that a catalogue of Dunlop’s roses be forwarded to him. It was posted on Jan- uary 2, taking about six weeks in the mails. Mr. Dunlop stat- ed that he often received such requests from all parts of Amer ica, England, and even the con- tinent but that this request came the furthest distance of any in his thirty-eight years of business. It is a tribute to the world-wide fame of roses grown by Mr. Dunlop at Rich- mond Hill.

Charitv.” RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1928 )BUSINESS IS YOUR BUSINESS and every elector should show the same| finterest in the welfare of the town’s l ‘affairs that he or she would take in .personal business. Richmond Hill is a village of many Wonderful natural [advantages & possessed of wonderful possibilities. There are many impor:~- jant problems to be dealt with demand- ing the very best executive ability enâ€" ergy and enterprise which the council Ichosen by the people can exercise. The I Itown needs more people; the town lneeds more industries which will give , iemployment to those who would make i ‘their home in this ideal residential] 'centre now so excellently served by I public utilities, modern schools and imany other advantages which we have. To a large extent the future { [of the Richmond Hill, its advancement igrowth and development is in the | hands of those who administer its af- | fairs. It is evident therefore that the electors should not take the matt- i er of the selection of a councillor lightly but should take it seriously and go to the polls and elect the man The electors of Richmond Hill will ‘ go to the polls next Monday, February 20 and choose a councillor to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of J .R. Herring'ton who was recently appointed clerk of the third division court of the County of York. At a public nomination meeting held in the council chamber last Monday evening ‘two candidates were nominated and both have taken the declaration of qualification and the names which will appear on the ballots are; Albert Chapman, of the village of Richmond Hill, Farmer and John A. Greene of the village of Richmond Hill, Merch- ant. Both candidates are well known to the electors and need no introducti- on. Mr. Greene is a former member of the council having served as coun- ‘cillor for a number of years and has been prominent in the ratepayers as- sociation and all public affairs of this community for some time. Mr. ‘Chapman is also well known and was an unsuccessful candidate for election to Richmond Hill council on a previous \occasion. He had three years experi- ence in municipal affairs before com- ing to Richmond Hill. The nominati- on meeting was not largely attended only the 2 nominations were received. Mr. Chapman was nominated by E.H. Hall & C.N. Cooper, Mr. Greene was proposed by Robert Endean and Her- bert Cook. Both candidates addressed the gathering briefly and intimated that it was their intention to stand for election and appealed for the support of the electorate. Albert Chapman and J. A. Greene are Candidatesâ€"1 Were Nominated and Two Qualifiedâ€"Poll Open At Masonic Hall from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. And I make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing it to be true and knowing that it is of the same force and effect as if made under oath and by virtue of The Canada Evidence Act. We would urge that every elector go to the polls on Monday next and exercise the franchise. THE PUBLIC 5. I am. not liable for any' taxes due and unpaid to the corporation of this Municipality. 3.
