The trip across the lake was made in the Garden City to Port Dal- housie, thence by electric railway through vas-t vineyards and peach orchards, touching at St. Catharines, and passing through Merriton, Thor- old and other places, arriving at the Falls at about 12.20. Places of in- terest at the Falls were visited and an enjoyable afternoon spent until 5.15 when the return trip was started ar- riving in Richmond Hill at 11.15, without an accident or a mishap of any kind to mar the pleasure of the day. The committee who managed the day’s outing were Messrs. W. H. Pugsley, P. G. Savage, J. H. Brydon, T. H. Trench and G. Cowie. Young Torontos Won A «clean and fast lacrosse match was played in the Park Saturday af- ternoon, and though the visitors won by a score of 9 to 4 the game was exciting from beginning to end, the home men never giving up the strug- gle till the whistle blew at the end of the match. Unfortunately the Hill team were disappointed in a couple of players who did not come, and as their places had to be filled by others who had no certificate the league match was called off, and only an exhibition game was played. Mr. Alex. Sims of Weston, made a strict and capable referee, never flinching in sending players to the fence when they transgressed. Firemen’s Excursion The man who first proposed a civic holiday and an excursion to Niagara Falls last Friday is worthy of a vote of thanks. What everybody says is almost sure to be true, and all who took the trip unnite in saying that the day was most enjoyably spent and the excursion was a complete success from every standpoint. In order that no person might be late that morning our accommodating bell-ringer rang the town bell at 5 o’clock so that all had ample time to dress and prepare for the day’s outing. The weather at 5 o’clock was not promising; in fact rain fell before the cars started at 6.30, and this doubtless kept scores at home who had intended joining the party. However, the committee were not long in disposing of 1§4 tickets, 21 of which were for children. Naturally most of the excursionists were from the Village, but there was From Our Issue of July 13th, 1905 Mr. T. A. Lamon, Principal of our Public School, and his pupils are to be congratulated on the excellent showing at the recent Entrance Ex- amination. Eleven candidates pre- sented themselves and all passed creditably. The Board of Education held a spec- ial meeting on Monday, the 15th inst. Members present: Messrs. GlaSs, Switzer, Newton, Trench, McConaghy, Boyle, Palmer, Storey, Lynett, Naugh- ton and Wilson. Accounts were read and ordered paid. A letter was re- ceived from the deputy-minister of Education, in reply to a letter from the secretary, stating that assessors being municipal officers they should be paid by the municipalities. On motion, secretary was instructed to notify the assessors Who met to equalize this school section that the Board decline to pay the bill pre- sented at the last meeting. After a discussion a resolution was carried instructing the secretary to advertise in the Globe and The Mail and Empire for Principal and Assistant for the High School at a salary of $1,000 and $600 respectively, duties to commence on Monday, the 26th day of August next. The Board adjourned to meet again on Wednesday, the 24th of July, to consider the applications. THIRTY YEARS AGO Mr. Switzer, secretary of the Board of Education, has received word from the Deputy Minister of Education, stating that all candidattets, 32 in number, provisionally passed and recommended by the local examiners at the High School Entrance Exami- nation at Richmond Hill, have been admitted. It is to be hoped the major ity of those who have been successful will follow up their studies by being at High School at the re-opening on Monday, the 26th of August. The petition for the submission of a by-law to the Village for a bonus of $10,000 to the Metropolitan Street Railway Company to extend their line to Richmond Hill, has been numerously signed. Nearly all the largest freeholders have affixed their names, and many others are signing without hesitation on Saturday last and were defeated by Newmarket Juniors by 4 games to 0. The boys say they were treated “white.” FORTY YEARS AGO From Our Issue of July 18th, 1895 A Junior team of the Richmond Lacrosse Club drove to Newmarket Way Back in liberal Files Newcastle Scouts claimed the hon- our of erecting the largest of the 1,775 beacons by which British Boy Scouts celebrated the King’s Silver Jubilee. The ceremony in connection with its lighting on Town Moor was witnessed by an estimated gathering of 200,000 people. A Monkey Hunt In England It was a unique piece of practical scouting that won the Scout Medal of Merit for Patrol Leader Ronald Rhind of the 15ft Cheadle Hulme- (Cheshire) Scout Group. While at a camp Rhind learned that a valuable monkey had escaped from its owner. He tracked it down, cornered it, and after a protracted battle, captured the [animaL This Will Be A Warm Camp Fire ‘ Beautifying the grounds about their log cabin, Rover Scouts of the 6th Edmonton Crew this summer planted young trees in the form of a fleur- de-lys, the centre of the symbol to be used as a fire circle. As reported in the Edmonton Bulletin, the trees selected were spruce, pine and “fur.” Presumably the cold winter nights about the camp fire suggested the selection.

THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO BY ROSS FARQUHAR Over seventy-five attended the W. M.S. on Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs. W. A. Carson. Mrs. M. Winter, President, was in charge of the meeting. A special feature of the afternoon was a song by the Grandmothers “More Love To Thee, O Christ,” this being a meeting in honor of “The Grandâ€"mothers.” Other musical items were a. vocal solo by Mrs. '1‘. Proctor and a vocal solo by Mrs. R. Graves (Mother of Mrs. Car- son). The Scripture lesson was read by Mrs. J. Patton and the devotional leaflet by Mrs. F. Gambrill. Miss Alice Ferguson also gave a few in- teresting thoughts. Miss M. Scott, re- turned Missionai'y from Japan, gave a most interesting and helpful talk on her work in the foreign country. After the meeting a. social hour was enjoyed and luncheon was served on the lawn. Have your Binder Canvass here early so all do not come the day the wheat is ready to cut. The early bird catches the worm and the wise man gets his implements in shape early for the season’s work. Maple, Ont. Misses Floral Davis, Dorothy Arm- strong, Beth McDonald, Betty Walker and Effie Bice left on Friday to at- tend camp at Ducle Point. A number of the congregation from the United Church journeyed to Teston on Sunday morning to partake of the Sacrament of the Lord’s Sup- per at the annual Union Service. Messrs. J. Dew and Alfred Barber of the local choir rendered a vocal duet at the service. “I feel that music, as brought to the people by radio, is doing- much to revivify home life, which but a few years ago was seriously threatened.” â€"Walter Damrosch. Binder Canvass The annual Orangemen’s Parade took place to the Baptist Church a week last Sunday afternoon. The local Orarige Lodges took part in the parade and activities at Fair- bank on Friday. V The boys and Rev. Davis returned from camp on Friday and all report a splendid time, even if the thunder storm was rather severe. Mr. and Mrs. Curts of Detroit are visiting with the formers sister, Mrs. M. Winter. “We’ll probably never know the name of the man who discovered America, but we may be positive 'he was an Irishman.” â€" Vilhjalmur Stefansson. Master Colin McGregor 0f Toronto is spending his summer vacation at the home of Mr. and Mrs. V. Hall. A woman’s page in one of our large dailies suggest that shrimp be served at the afternoon bridge. It all de- pends on whether he can tear him- self away from the office. Two earloads of gentlemen left for Kingfisher Island, Georgian Bay, on Sunday morning for a. week’s vaca- tion. A most enjoyable evening was spent at the Haber home at the lodge of Sir H. Pellatts estate on Tuesday to bid farewell to Miss Nora, Mrs, Hately, Charlie and Andy Crawford who left on Thursday to reside in Toronto. A number played euchre while out-e side a violin and guitar rendered music for dancing on the lawn. Mr. Mrs. G. H. Stone, Mr. and Mrs. G. Stone, Jack and Marjorie and Mr; Kelso Crossle'y spent Sunday at Ather Iey visiting Mr. and Mrs. H. Witney. “A good rule is this beware of talkres.”â€"Bruoe Barton. Mrs. R.

Masters Douglas and Lloyd Wells of Toronto are visiting with their grand- father, Mr. A. Wells. Mrs. R. Carson, Mr. and Mrs. H. Smith, Miss M. Case and Mrs. Hal- stead of Northmount, attended the W. M.S. meeting at Mrs. W. Carson’s on Thursday afternoon. A. Wells read an address and Mr. J. Archibald presented the family with a purse and also Mrs. Hately with a silver sandwich plate. This family will certainly be missed from our midst as they have resided in our community for twenty-one years. We are glad though, to learn Charlie is remaining with us for the summer at least.
