Bernice Snider Wins Eaton Trophyl At Thistletown School Fair The attendance at Thistletowni School Fair on Thursday of last week was one of the largest in its history. The day was ideal and the exhibits quite up to the standard set in former years. In fact the vegetable and] flower display was thought to be even better. There were seven sections in the District which were made up ’of four in Etobicoke and three in North York Towns-hip and included No. 4 Richview, Miss Downey, teacher; No. 6 Highfieldl, Miss Moody, teacher; No. 7, Miss Featherston‘e; No. 10, Misses Barber and Kingdon; No. 17, Emery, Miss J. Watson; No. 18 Downs view, Miss M. Shore; No. 19, Miss D. Murray. The highest points scored in the District were made by Bernie: Snider, Elia, who won the T. Eaton Trophy. Judges were Public School Inspectors Wilkinson and Campbell, Mrs. W. 0. Duncan, Miss Margaret Wallis, Messrs. Clarence Graham and Thomas Teasdale. The electrical storm Thursday morning of last week Was the sever- est of the season and several tele- phone poles were struck and consider- ably shattered. Christ Church Harvest Home Christ Church Harvest Home ser- vices held on Sunday last attracted two large congregations when Rev. R. B. Patterson, Rector of Christ Church, Oshawa, and Rev. J. H. Kidd exchanged pulpits for the day. The Church was beautifully decorated with flowers, fruit and vegetables, pro- ducts of the Community, and the choir provided a musical program at each service fitting the occasion with solo numbers rendered by Misses Betty Wallace, Queenie Dumbleton, Isabel Smith, Messrs.

Orange Hall Packed To Hear Bill Mulock and Ian McKenzie The Orange Hall was filled to ca- }acity on Monday night with one of the most intenSely interested aud- iences that ever crossed its portals to listen to speakers as they dealt with the great problems that affect the Dominion and the world at the present time. The occasion was the meeting held in the interest of Bill Mulock, Liberal candidate for North York at the coming by-election. In addition to the candidate the speakâ€"1 crs were Ian McKenzie, M.P. for Van- l 'couver; Egerton Lovering, Toronto,‘ iand Fred King, young farmer of lnlders Mills. Dr. G. D. McLean. iclla'rman, spoke briefly as he opened 1the meeting by introducing Mr. Loverâ€" ling followed by Fred‘ King. Then [came Bill Mulock who was given an ovation as he entered the hall. His address was free from personalities yet he was severe in his criticism of R. B. Bennett and his farm program, and like the rest of the speakers made occasional references to Mr. Bennett’s statement that he would blast his way into the markets of the- \"01'ld. As Mr. Mulock finished his address Mr. Ian McKenzie alrrived from King City where he had spoken [earlier in the evening and for gne lhour this great man from Vancouver iheld the audience in his grip as he lenfolded fact upon fact to prove that 1It. B. Bennett was not capable of ‘ directing the ship of state to a pros- perous landing. The singing of God‘ Save the King brought one of the best political meetings ever held in- Woodbridge to a close. Phone 78 Successor to J. J.

Mulock, Liberal candidate for the by-i election in North York, whenkthe RU B. Bennett government met with justj ciiticism. It was shown by each speaker that‘ Mr. Bennett had made election promises during- the cam- paign of 1930 that had not been ful- filled, one of which was the fact that he had made it quite clear that he would blast his way into the markets of the world i freturned to power. Instead of this he had, by his high tariff policy, caused other actions to retaliate with a protective tariff and he is still hoping to blast his way into tlme world markets. Speakers were Bill Mulock, Hon. Dr. Simpson, Mor- gan Baker, M.L.A., and Fred King. Walter McCutcheon occupied the chair The groom replied in a few well chosen words, thanking the boys! for such a beautiful clock and also his desire that the good fellowsh'p might always remain.

ONTARIO Clark spent Sunday with Gelat]gy_is_spending his Reheved/ IZG Liberal Leader Gets Great Reception in North York A rousing meeting was held in the Markham arena Tuesday evening when Rt. Hon. W. L. MacKenzie King, fed-l erad leader of the Liberal party, spoke with Col. W. P. Mulock, the Liberal candidate in North York. The great arena was crowded to capacity and the speakers received a Very attentive hearing and the Liberal leaders proâ€" nouncements and the address of Col. Nulock the candidate were enthusiasâ€" tically cheered. J. H. Naughton, pres ident of the North York Liberal Assoc- iation, presided as chairman and the first speaker was Morgan Baker M.L. A. who in his usual pleasing manner urged the electms to do their duty at this time and vote against the Ben- nett government whose policies were so ruinous to the great mass of the .people of Canada. Mr. King was given a great recep- tion and he delivered an address which was declared by many to be the best of his political career. a . “I, u. r,,, “We in Canada,” he declared, “do not want to be in bondage to wealth, in bondage to industry, or in bondage to a class in any shape or form. We want freedom, and that is part of the work which you and I as Lib- eralsâ€"inheriting the tradition which we have inheritedâ€"must seek to carry on in the name of the past, the pres- ent and the future.” Blame the Government u._..-v V“- “I might say something here about the social unrest we are hearing so much of. I might say to by Commun- ist friends and my Socialist friendsâ€"â€" if I may call them thatâ€"‘Don’t blame our parliamentary institutions for your inability to get all that is right and proper in the Way of re- form. Blame instead those men who are Letraying the trust with which as Ministers of the Crown and repre- sentatives of the people they have teen entrusted.’ " Fight For Freedom Mr. King delved into the history of the first half of the last century in defending the fight, of Liberals of that day and today for freedom from oppression. '- ,7, ,1 vl,r_-_._ _, “The whole effort of my grand- father at that time,” said Mr. King, “was directed solely toward securing for the Canadian peo‘ple the same Ireedom and privileges as enjoyed by the people of the motherland. I defy anybody, looking back into the history of those days, to find anything in the acts of these reformers that might he construed as seeking separation be construed as seeking from the Mother Country.” He quoted from a recent article by B. K. Sandwell, editor of Saturday Night. which declared that serious consequences would ensue if a popu- lar demand of the people Were denied. “This historic riding of North York,” said Mr, King, “lies in the heart of the Liberal family of Canada and nowhere is there a greater love for the Liberal principles of libertyl and freedom.” The great issue before all the peoâ€"‘ ples and countries of the world, he said, was whether liberty should con- tinue to flourish or whether autocra- cies and dictatorships should spring up in nations which had hitherto been free. Family Tradition The record of the historic Mulock; family in the field of Liberalism and public service was unsurpassed in the country, said Mr. King, referring to the grandfather of the present canâ€" didiate, Sir William Mulock. He pointed out that Mulocks for five generations had been identified with public affairs in the Province. The candidate, he said, could be counted upon to continue, in Parliamentary life, the high traditions of his family. Mr. King appealed to young men of Liberal thought throughout the Dominion to stand for Parliament in the coming general election, for, he said, Canada needed intelligent and liberal-minded young men in public affairs. The election of Colonel Mu- lock, he told his audience, would be an encouragement to such potential statesmen to offer themselves in the elctions. “Those great men who have gone before us,” he said, “lighted the torch of freedom, and we who have been holding it high would like, when the time comes, to pass it on to vigorous young hands.” The speaker expressed deep regret at the death of the former member of the Federal riding, Colonel Lennox, and of Lyman Jackson, for many years editor of the Newmarket Era. Colonel Mulock, the Liberal candi- date, roundly scored the record of the Bennett Administration. He re- called Mr. Bennett’s promise to end unemployment in Canada, a promise which," the speaker said, would be iaughf‘bl" if it did not deal with a matter of such vital concern to the suffering populace. “Mr. Bennett promised," proceeded Colonel Mulock, “that if he were put power he would repeal the New Philco and Victor Radios Electric Washing Machines Harness Zealand butter treaty, and We would never see 35-cent butter again. Well, that’s one promise he did keep, for we haven’t seen it since. “Just Eyewash” “I say that this talk about New Zealand butter was nothing but political eyewash.” If the Government lost all five by- elect‘om, he said, the Government ought to resign. In fact, he added, cught to resign. m met, ue auww, what ought to be in progress now is not five by-elections, but a general clection‘, for Mr. Bennett had lost the confidence of the people. Criticizing the Imperial Conference agreements, he said that Canada, one year after the Conference, sold 1,- 500,000 bushels less of wheat 'to Britain that she had before the pact was entered into. The same thing was largely true, he said, of other agricultural products. Colonel Mulock accused the Prime Min'ster of having treated the Mother Country unfairly in the matter of tariffs, and he called for the removal of “unfair duties” against some Brit- ish goods. Some of the tariffs, he said, created in Canada virtual monâ€" opolies in many fields of manufacturq ing. York, said that Mr. King was lead)- ing the Liberal Party toward a regime of freedom and fairness such as ex- isted in the days of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. “It is a. question when we cast our votes on Monday," he said, “of whether it is: to be Bennett and bondâ€" age or King and freedom. “Our Comm-i0 Premier, Mitchel'l Hepburn, has carried out every pne- election promise that he made,” said Mr. Baker. “And this record of sin- cerity and honesty can beflooked for with confidence in our candidates and leaders in the Federal field.” He declared that Prime Minister Bennett had displayed a far different attitude toward the people when, on the arrival in Ottawa of a deputation of working people, he met them with mounted.- police. .
