The first game will start SHARP AT 9 p.m. and a team not on the floor and ready to start on the stroke of nine will lose the game by default. This is the warning handed out by league offic- ials and we hope players and team managements will take the tip. From now on all games must start on time. Good games continue to feature the Richmond Hill lacrosse league games at the Richmond Hill arena every Tuesday and Friday evening. Tues- day night Richmond Hill and Thorn- hill midgets played a 4-4 tie game and the close score clearly indicates the kind of game it was. It was hard fought from start to finish and both teams displayed some real speed and ability. ,In the juvenile fixture Maple defeated Richvale 6â€"3.

Trucks will leave Garden Avenue and Yonge Street at district witnessed an unusual cloud ‘fOrmation and movement in Monday ‘evening’s storm which was termed by old timers as a “twister” or cy- clone. Dark clouds were noticed travelling rapidly towards each other from the east and from the west. As the two cloud formations met the one began to churn violently round and round and in time- became smaller until it appeared like a long spiral shaped funnel of white smoke in the dark sky turnian round and round with tremendous speed. Whether a “twister” or a cyclone or whatever it was it left a trail of wreckage in its wake. It struck Elgin Mills and flattened the silzo on the Kerswill farm, tore a piece out of the barn, and lifted whole sections of rail fence and landed them intact several rods away. Trees were ripped up as if] they were mere slhrubbery and gen- eral havoc wrought by the raging elements. The strip hit but the “twister” at its worst was compara- tively small but the general storm damage is estimated at many thous- and dollars to the farmers of York County. i Residents of Richmond Hill and l “In Essentials, Unity; In Non-essentials, Liberty; In All Things, WCharity York County crops suffered severe damage as a result of wind and rain storms of the past week, Almost daily downpours which oftentimes were accompanied by heavy wind have left many promising fields flattened so badly as to make it doubtful if they will be of any great value. A drive through the district in the wake of Monday night’s storm revealed many fields flattened “as flat as a. pancake.” A steam roller could not have made them any flatter. Other fields were down with odd patches twisted every way and standing up here and there through the fields. A great many fields will have to be cut one way, if they can be cut at all, and this will add greatly to the work and expense of harvest. Onre farmer told us that the scythe would have to be used on some fields, and then too. there is the sad dang-er that some of the crops now down will not be worth cutting. Following a haying season in which' much of a bumper crop was lost due to catchy weather the latest develop- ment in local crop conditions is very disappointing to the farmers. The prospects for a real bumper harvest were never better until the storms came along and flattened them.

PRIZES' AWARDED IN THE BETTER FARMS CONTEST Judging in the Better Farms Con- test sponsored by the Richmond Hill Agricultural Society was completed this week and the handsome silver trophy emblematic of the best farm in the district which includes the whole of the townships of Markham and Vaughan was awarded to Clark Youngof Milliken with 87%, points. on the first visit were James Lough- lin director of extension for the CA. C. Guelph, and J. V. Smith of the On- tario Department of Agriculture. This week the judging was done by H. A. Dawlson of Chelbenham, a well known farmer and grower of regist- ered seed grain, and George Downey, well known crop judge of Bolton. In each case the judges scored separately and at the conclusion of the judging the four score cards were totalled to determine the winner. The prize winners were as follows: Clark Young, Milliken, 87%. points. Charles Witty, R. R. Woodbridge, 841/2 points. The farms were inspected "by two judges just before haying and for the second time this week. The judges The Prince Edward Island‘ election ousted the last provincial Conserva- tive Government in Canada, leaving only the federal administration out- side the hands of the Liberals, Pro- gressives or Farm parties. The Lib- eral sweep started with British Colum bia, then Saskatchewan, Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and finally Prince Edward Island. But in Saskatchewan five Farmer- Laborites were elected with a Liberal block of 50 members; while in British Columbia 35 Liberals were chosen, with the remaining 13 composed of Co-operativre Commonwealth Federa- tion, Independents, one Unionist and one Labor. The election was Watched closely by independent observers throughout Canada as an indication of what is likely to happen in the Federal elec- tion in September. Federal issues were freely discussed: in‘ the campaign and the unpopularity of the Bennett government contributed largely to the defeat of the MacMillan ministry. Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King and other leading Liberals at Ottawa commenting on the result expressed no surprise as it is evident the elect- ors from one side of Canada to the other are tired of the policies which have governed the country for the past five years. Everywhere the great sweep‘ is taken as a definite findication of what will happen in the coming Dominion voting when it is conceded that the Liberal Party will be returned with a big majority. record books searching vainly for a‘ The world needs more common- parallel to the Prince Edward Island"sense men and womenâ€"just; plain election which resulted in the Liber- everyday folks who belong to the als capturing every seat. inary tabulations are correct, there will be no opposition in the Legis- lature. believed unique in Canadian history. The closest to a clean sweep they could find was in Nova Scotia in 1905 when 36 Liberals and two Conserv- atives were elected; and in British Columbia in 1912, when 40 Conserv- atives and two Socialists were chosen.

Watson, Woodbridge, 80% On Sunday afternoon the childnen of the Sunday School were pleased with a number by Arthur Holder, coloured spiritual singer, in the Sun- day School session. Mr. Holder was most generous with his music and Friday night on the home sport field the men’s team played Millik‘en and Saturday they went to Ratcliffe’s to play the 6th lin-e team. The re- sults weren’t so good. What’s the matter boys? Too many games in the hot weather. _ Thursday was the day of the big Community picnic at Ratcliffe’s picnic grounds. This was a new experience for our community and the crowd in :attendance showed the interest in such an affair. Games, races and contests were held for the children jand women in the afternoon. The single ladies were the ones Who really disgraced themselves in the days pro- ;ceedings. Beaten in the afternoon by ithe boy’s ball team they also went ldown to defeat against the married ladies. What’s the reason! You will have your own solution! Perhaps the married ladies are receiving more practice in fighting the battles of life. At any rate they don’t seem to need any new recruits for their ranks. Maybe they have the men trained to the work for the married men failed to lick their single brothers. Con- sidering the sports, the social time and the boat rides a really pleasant day was enjoyed. May it lead to other such occasions in the future and none of our families kept home by haying.
