HERRINGTON Telephone 87 Yonge Street Richmond Hill 193 l HE WOULD BE GOING YET _ The “bus service” on Yonge Street was blamed on Monday night for the ' medicament of a well known loeal resident who lost his latitudinal hearings on North Yonge Street. It seems this gentleman asked the bus driver to let him off at the first stop south of Bond Lake which would be just a little north of his destination. The bus driver stopped and the gentle man got off and started to walk south. It happened however that the bus dri- ver either did not know where Bond Lake is or else didn’t care and had stopped about a mile south, so that had the gentleman referred to kept cn walking in the direction he was go- ing he would have had to walk around the entire world to reach his desired destination. This would have taken some time and he certainly would not have been back for the opening of the curling season next year. HOWever :1 member of the Richmond Hill coun- cil happened along and did the good samaritan act, thus saving the situâ€" ation. But Joe says if the Richmond Hill bell had been ringing he would have known which way he was going. 7 , __ . _. _-‘..-.., u. u., null Home Missions. Monday evening 8 p. m.â€"â€"Y. P. S.
