The game was the “last word” in hockey, re- sulting in a win for our boys with a score of 4â€"2, the two Winning g‘oals being scored by Harold Allen and Howe Crosby in the last two min- utes of the play.

Ogden. There were 19 present, they played games and had refreshments like the grownups. Special mention is made of Johnny Thompson’s achievement, not being content with procuring a life membership for him- self, the pennies in the mite box grew until he had enough for another, and Mona Sabiston was the lucky little girl to receive it. Miss- Marion Warne is the superintendent of this band. A siimlar program has also been arranged by the Girls" Club with Mrs. D.

Keen en- thusiasm prevails in both clubs and a prgfiitableyear is anticipated. n Judging from the line-up of cars on Main Street on, Monday eVening last, there was a large attendance at the meeting of the Junior Farmers organization held in the Township Hall. Special honor has come to this Society recently, when two of their members, Chas. Hooper and A. K. Harrington, were elected as Town- ship Councillor and Village Trustee respectively. Bill Champion presided at the meeting and gave an interest: ing report of the Community Lifel Conference held at Pickering College, Newmarket, last week. A program of interest has been arranged, where- by five speakers from the Economic Reform Association will be heard con secutively. The President, Mr. Craig, was the guest speaker on Monday night, dealing with the economic problems of Canada. I 6ur Vil-lage Trustéeg steps t6 put a stop to this uncalled for annoy- ance. The thoughtless prank of ringing- the Township Hall Bell on Monday last at midnight did not appeal to the majority of our citizens as much of a joke. As well as being disturbed from their pecaeful slumber, the anx- iety, fearing a fire was not; altoh gethqgupleasant.

What Counts It isn't the money you’re making, it isn’t the clothes you wear, And it isn’t the sklll of your good right hand which makes folks really care. It’s the smile on your face and the light of your eye and the bur- dens that you bear. It’s how do you five and neighbor, and how do you work and play, It’s how do you say “Good Mommg” to the people along the way. And it's how do you face your troubles whenever your skies are gray. “ ‘ A THURSDAY, JANUARY 11th, 1934 WEEKLY NEWS NOTES FROM THE UNIONVILLE DISTRICT Interment at King City Cemetery on arrival of morning train, King 9:45 a.1n., Friday, Jan. 12th.

At the same time the speaker commended any group or or- ganization which at this time was endeavouring to salve the baffling economic questions of the day. Mr. Drury assailed high tariffs and pro- tection as one of the primary causes of our economic ills. The address was much enjoyed by the audience and was thought provoking in its treatment of various present day prob lems. Mr. Thomas H. Trench pre- sided at the meeting as chairman and the speaker was introduced by Mr. Henry Moyle, a personal friend of the former Ontario Premier. Hon. E. C. Drury, former Ontario Premier, addressed a fair sized‘ aud- ience in the Masonic Hall here Mou- day evening. The meeting was held under the auspices of the C.C.F. but Mr. Drury made it quite clear at the outset of his address that he was not a member of the C.C.F. and stated INTERESTING LECTURE VETERANS’ EUCHRE Canadian enterprise has been quick to see the advantages offer- ed by Victoria for those who seek summer facilities and sports dur- ing the normal winter months. The city boasts one of the finest hostelries of the Dominion, the Empress Hotel, overlooking the inner harbor and tree-shaded lawns; social centre and 11-3:erâ€" West of the Rockies and. warm- ed by the Japan current, Vancou- ver Island presents some amazing contrasts with the rest of the Dominion. Winter climatic con- ditions are such that there are hundreds of hours of warm sun- shine with ideal temperature. minimum rainfall and conditions at once restful and healthâ€"giving. This leisurely and lovely city, more typical of Old-World restfulness than Canadian bustle, located in the heart of Canada’s evergreen playground, is becom- ing more and more the Mecca of Canadians who, flying from the austerities of the northern winter, have discovered that the Dominion offers climatic amenities for which in other years it was thought that Florida or California were the only solutions. BIRTH DIED Victoria, City of All-Year Summer the The annual meeting of the Richâ€" mond Hill Agricultural Society will be held Saturday afternoon, Jan. 20th, at 2:15 p.m. All members, exhib- itors, and all interested in promoting the best interests of the Richmond Hill Fair are invited to attend.

We shall shortly be running our factory for Spring, and are already booking orders for delivery next fall,'so that we are with other manufacturers optimistic in regard to changing conditions, and progress during the coming year. Our produce will be offered and shown in the Wind- ows of local merchants, and being made here, freight charg- es and incidental expenses attached thereto will be avoided, which advantage Will be given to the local buying public. Your inspection is invited irrespective of purchase, and any- one desirous or interested, we would appreciate a Visit to the factory, when the machines are running, and garments in process of making, and would suggest if you will give your collective support in this direction, the more employ- ment we shall be able to give, thus endeavouring to make for Richmond Hill a banner and prosperous year for 1934- Yours truly, We have concentrated on first class garments, and have merited a market, in Vancouver, Winnipeg, Montreal, Toronto, London, Ottawa, Windsor, St. Thomas, Newmark- et and other towns and cities. With this idea in mind two years since we ventured a small industry,, manufacturing knitted garments, and in spite of acknowledged two deplorable depression years, we have consistantly operated, gradually adding new machin- ery, and increasing our staff, all local labor, from three to eighteen. (An open letter to the public) For a number of years efforts have been made Without success to induce manufacturers to locate in Richmond Hill. There are a number of people in this town, who have an objection to industries, claiming for reasons it is difficult to understand, that Richmond Hill should be exclusively residential. We believe, however, the more industries and the more men and young women in steady local employment, the better for the community at large. ANNUAL MEETING HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY FAIR BOARD MEETING What has specially drawn con- tinentâ€"wide attention to Victoria, however, is the mid-winter golf tournament, an annual Empress affair to which many wellâ€"known amateur golfers from America and Europe are attracted. This season it will be played over the course of the picturesque Royal Colwood Golf ("luh from Febru‘ ary l!) to 24, 1934. Events include the E. W. Beatty Challenge Tro- phy. open to all amateurs playing under club handicaps;_ Men’s Open Amaf quarters for varied sporting ac- tivitiesr These include golf on superb full length courses. tennis and swimming in the great salt water pool at the Crystal Gar- dens. At Christmas the pagean- try of an “Olde English Yuletide" is observed every year at the Em- press with “Bringing in the Yule Log”, “Boar’s Head Carol” and a. ball on Christmas Night following dinner. There is specially select- ed music every evening during Christmas week and the New Year’s Eve Ball is a famous in- stitution at the Empress. From November 1 to the following April 30 there are special low rates in force. 1934 A Banner Year Local Industries GOBLIN GOLD eur Event to} 'the Viotéria REEVE’S FRENCH SURPRISES TRANSIENTS Two transients applied to Reeve J. A. Greene on Wednesday for meal tickets. The Reeve promptly refeb red them to the Village caretaker and constable, but was advised that they had already interviewed the careâ€" taker and that he had stipulated they must saw wood before securing the meal tickets. “Sorry old man" said Reeve Greene, “but rules are rules and if you want the meal you will have to see the caretaker and saw the wood the same as everybody else.” The spokesman for the pair turned to his companion and com- menced to converse with him in French. The Reeve, however, hap- pens to be well versed in French and since the transient’s remark to his companion was to the effect that they would rather beg than saw the wood, he gave the two indolent wayfarers quick marching orders. The tranâ€" sients hastened down Yonge Street and no doubt have resolved that next time they will have to try a new language for their private conver- sations. I The Canadian Pacific R2 offers a schedule of new low from all points in Canada, 6 the British Columbia-A boundary, to Victoria, daily, November 15 to February 28 return limit April 30. Motoring is always a delightful form of entertainment in Victoria. The famous Malahat drive, wind- ing for miles through some of the finest scenery in Canada, offers facilities to autoists which make it justly internationally famous. There are many other worthwhile roads stretching beyond Victoria at the choice of the motorist. If a short sea trip is desired, there is the triangle run by palatial coast steamers between Vancou- ver, Victoria, and Seattle. Chamber of Commerce Trophy; Victoria. Rotary Cup for ladies best gross; and the inter-district team match \for the Matson Tro- phy. The E. W. Beatty Trophy event is divided into classes for both ladies and men.
