Sheardown All babies acquire habits very readily, (regardless of whether the habits are good or bad. A baby who is rocked to sleep a few times soon refuses to go to sleep without such attention. The “Comfort,” of all habits, is the most filthy and inex- cusable. No mother would think of exposing her baby to any communicable dis- ease, but she does so if she allows the child to use a “comfort.” The com- fort may fall to the floor or sidewalk, it may be touched by other hands, it may rub against other things, flies may walk over it or, in many other ways .it may become soiled with dis- ease germs and carry them into the mouth of the child. When a child is given the “com- fort” to send him to sleep, it generâ€" ally drops from the mouth when the child is asleep, and frequently it be- comes the restingâ€"place for flies which may have come from any filâ€" thy place. When the child awakes and cries, the mother rushes to the baby and places this soiled thing in his mouth. Directors Prepare For Annual Fair At a meeting of the directors of the Richmond Hill Agricultural Society held on Monday evening, plans were made for the 1928 Spring Exhibition on May 24. This will be the seventy ninth annual fair and the officers and directors are right down to work in their effort to make it one of the best lyears in the history of the Society. As usual attractive prizes will be offered for live stock and the reputaâ€" tion of the Richmond Hill show for quality in this department is well known and recognized not only in all parts of York County but throughout Ontario. Stockmen in the district are already getting their horses and cattle in shape and it is hoped that as many as possible of the local breed- ers will be among the exhibitors. BABY SHOW WILL BE FEATURE 0F FAIR THIS YEAR Softball which proved such a popul- ar attraction last year will be featur- ed again this year and the sports committee has already started to work on the details. A new depart. ure will be the staging of a Baby Show and the inovation should add much to the fair. Messrs J. Lunau, T.H. Trench and R. Agar were ap- 'pointed as a committee to look after 'this department and jhdging by the interest already manifest they will “have their hands full.” A BAD HABIT \VHICH SHOULD BE STOPPED The collectors were appointed for the village, the surrounding town- ships and these men will make their calls during the coming weeks and are looking for a generous reception. The fair is a community endeavour and is worthy of the support of the general body of citizens in Richmond Hill and the surrounding district. Another meeting of the directors will be held next Monday night in the council chamber at 7.30 p.m. for the transaction of general business. A- mong those at the meeting on Monday were, president, W.H. Legge, F.A. Clark, J.E. Francis, Robt. Thompson T.H. Trench, J‘.s. McNair, W.A. lWright, W. Palmer, Wes Middleton, J. Lunau, R. Agar, G.H. Duncan, W.H. Pugsley. CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION I Best Grade HEALTH SERVICE Prices Ontario for OF THE. 1 The baby cries for the "comfort" because it has become a habit. If he were never given one, he: would never want one. It is not natural for a child to have something in the mouth all the time. Sucking a “comfort” does not soothe the child after a few minutes. It tires hime and makes him irritable. Like the constant chewing of gum or sucking a dry pipe. it caus- es an unnatural flow of saliva. The swallowing of this and the movement of the jaws cause an uncomfortable feeling like a hard lump back of the throat. Continued use of the “comfort” al- ters the arch of the mouth and fre. quently causes projecting upper teeth with a short, tight upper lip. This Often means that the jaws are not of norma‘l shape or appearance, and pro- per chewing of food is difficult, if not impossible. ‘ Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Street, Toronto, will be answered by letter. Questions as to diagnosis and treatment will not be answered. There is only one place for any and all styles of “comforts”â€"the fire or the garbage pail, never baby’s mouth. If you know of any benighted s0u1 who couldn’t tell you what a cow is, you might pass this edification. We do not know who is the author of it. He probably fell dead with the last stroke of his pengil in producing it: The cow is a‘female quadruped with an alto voice and a countenance in which there is no guile. She collaborates with the pump in the ;production of a liquid called milk, provides the‘ filler for hash, and at llast is skinned by those she has beneâ€" fiited as mortals commonly are. The cow’s tail is mounted aft and .has a universal joint. It is used to \disturb marauding flies, and the tassel on the end has a unique eduâ€" cation value. Persons who milk cows and come in contact with the tassel have vocabularies of peculiar and imâ€" ipressive force. The cow has two stomachs. The one on the ground floor is used as a Warehouse and has no other function. ‘WV'hen this one is filled the cow re- tires to a quiet place where her ill ‘fmanners will occasion no comment ‘and devotes herself to rumination. The raw material thus conveyed for 'the second time to the interior of her face is pulverized and delivered to the auxiliary stomach, where it is ‘convorted into cow. The cow has no upper plate. All her teeth are parked in the lower part of her face. This arrangement ‘was perfected by an efficiency ex- pert to keep her from gumming 'things up. As a result she bites up Land gums down. The male cow is called a bull and is lassoed along the Colorado, fought south of the Rio Grande and shot in the vicinity of the Potomac. A slice of cow is worth 8 cents in the cow, 14 cents in the hands of the packer and $2.40 in a restaurant that specializes in atmosphereâ€"The Jet. 'Sey Bulletin.

SAVAGE THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO Richmond Hill LEOPOLD MACAULEY' Member of the Provincial Legis- lature for South York who is promin- ently mentioned as a probable new member of the Ferguson cabinet. A very inspiring meeting of the W. C. T. U. was held at the home of Mrs. O. L. Wright, Tuesday, April 3rd., at 3 pm. with Mrs. W. Mortson, President occupying the chair. A very suitable bible reading was given by Mrs. Routley, from the lst chap- ter of Joshua, emphasizing the verse “Be strong and of good courage.” W. C. T. U. SPEAKER POINTS T0 FAILURE OF LIQUOR CONTROL ACT A splendid address was given by Miss Moyle, on the subject the pro- hibition of the manufacture, impor- tation and sale of intoxicating liquor and in her opening remarks Miss Moyle deplored the great increase in bootlegging and drunkenness under the soâ€"called Government Control, which was supposed to do away with it altogether. According to official figures given out by the Government the cost of Government Control to the people of Ontario for 1e5s than six months was $17,805,000 which meant $6 per head for the peOple of Ontario. Almost 15 million was spent on operating expenses and two million revenue for the Government. How many women and children were going without proper clothing and food while this immense amount of money was spent in this way. All ‘through Ontario, drunkenness and crime have increased, and in one town no larger than Richmond Hill $30,000 has} been spent in intoxicw ting liquors. Our jails are crowded and every newspaper contains re- ports of motor accidents, caused by drunken motorists. Rev. W. A. (lam-- eron in broadcasting his sermon a few weeks since made the statement that a number of women had been carried from the dance hall of a well known Toronto hotel, who were in plain Words “drunik”. SCORES FAILURE OF NEW LIQUOR LAW Miss Moyle in closing appealed to the women of the W. C. T. U. and to the churches to stand firm in this terrible battle against the greatest evil that the world has known, beâ€" lieving that right not might will preâ€" vail. 'A very welcome Visitor at: the meeting was a former president, Mrs. H. McMahon, who expressed her pleasure at being present and to know that the W. C. T. U. was still carrying on. How could W. C. T. U. women lose| faith asked Mrs. Mc- Mahon, when We have the memory of the brave and fearless women, who in days gone by went into the bar room and kneeling on the bar room floor prayed for the abolition of the bar room. A pleasing fieahlre of Mrs. McMahons visit was the pre- sentation of the life membership pin to Mrs. W. Cook, by Mrs. McMahon and in making the presentation she said ‘there was no one more worthy of the honor than Mrs. Cook. A woman who had always been a staunch supporter of prohibition. '. A vote of appreciation was moved by Mrs. Plewman and seconded by Mrs. Phipps to Miss Moyle and Mrs. McMahon and heartin responded to by all present. In Mrs. Cooks reply, she expressed her surprise and pleasure at the an. expected tribute and also that the temperance work had always had the warmest place in her heart. says you can’t beat Wool- nough’s Harness come in and see it when in Toronto.
