The preceding principal received a salary of $800. Howard Cane, of Newmarket, who has been acting as Deputy Sheriff of York County and'Toronto has been appointed sheriff to succeed Alex Gorrie, who is being retired. “Well, I started marryin’ when I was 21 and I just kept at it. I ask- ed ’em to marry me and they did. All my courtin’ was done either with a horse and buggy or else on foot.” In such manner did Sylvester Plum- lee, of Ilney, 111., 62 years of age, explain his marital success. He’s been married nine times and is now considering candidate number 10. Relief recipients with summer jobs will be notified that they must give an account of their earnings and show they have not been extrava- gant when they apply for relief next winter, the Orillia welfare board has decided. We trust Jim Hunter will broad- cast over the air that Richmond Hill schools were closed‘ on Dominion Day. Simcoe County Council recently passed a resolution asking the Proâ€" vincial Legislature to pass legislaâ€" tion giving municipal council some control over school Board expendi- tures and financing. RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JULY 2nd, 1936 In the city of Ottawa, Illinois, has been organized Local No. 1 of the Old Fashioned Night Shirt Union af- ter a lengthy campaign against the lame brained pajama wearers and already hundreds of men have join- ed up. “Since war produces nothing with which to pay its bills, it would be in accord with sound principles of both economics and! humanity to put it completely on a pay-asâ€"you-go basis.” ~P1'of. Arnold J. Lein. No news is good news, but not to a newspaper. If you know of any items of general interest, call the editor. You can make your weekly a real asset to the community. June is the month of roses, wed- dings, school examinations, June bugs, grass cutting, lawn watering, strawberries, picnics, straw hats, summer clothing and the leveliest month of the year to many people. One of the big New York bankers says he would like to run a news- paper for a week, which prompts us to observe: Just think what an edi- tor could do to a bank in one day. Good advice: Learn to swim and also know where you swim. There are many danger spots, which it would be just as well to avoid. If you aren’t idlelupper class or thrifty middle class or a taxpayer or an office holder, you must be “the people.” How to be popular? Well any weed becomes a valued plant when people discover they can use it. There is always a tie between fath- er and 50h, declares a speaker. But the son usually wears it. Marriage should make one happy says a writer. But you’ll have to guess which one. The automobile has shortened the distance between all points except parking places. These are trying times, but it’s claimed that some people don’t half try. Schools are closed and the young folks are enjoying the delight of summer holidays. Crops throughout the district look well. Haying is in full swing and is a good yield. Only a and then shopping Genefal News & Views few weeks until Exhibition you can start counting the days until Christmas. The following officers were in- stalled in Richmond Lodge Monday evening, R. W. Bro. H. A. Nicholls acting as installing officerâ€"I.P.M., The new creamery on Arnold St. erected by Messrs. Hopkins & Son on the site of the old building which was burned last winter, is well worth a visit by interested persons. It is built of cement with mica, roof, and is practically fireproof. The vats, testers, separators, etc., are up-to- date, and a large business is being done. The manager, Mr. Fred Lyn- ett, ships every day most of the cream to the city by Metropolitan Railway, the cream afterwards find- ing its way into the ice cream par- lors. The Queen’s Hotel, sheds and stables, Thornhill, were burned to the ground about 1.30 o’clock Monday morning. The fire was first discov- ered by Mr. McClure of Woodbridge who was driving north. Th'e,:t&‘nm1ts, Mr. and Mrs. Worvell and their-four children barely escaped with their lives. Three horses were burned to death, and the tenant lost most of his furniture. It is said there was no insurance. From our Issue of June- 28th, 19.06 An enjoyable time was spent by teachers, students and friends at the annual picnic of the Richmond Hill High School last Friday, though the afternoon was somewhlat showery. There were three vans well filled. Boating was a feature of the after- noon and evening. The members of the Curling Club and their wives and other relatives met on the beautiful lawn of Mr. W. Sanderson on Tuesday evening and presented their Chaplain, Rev. J. Vickery, who is about to ’té'ke his departure for a new field of labor. with a handsome gold-headed ebony cane. The presentation was accom- panied by an address which was read by Mr. T. F. McMahon, the secreh tary of the club and Mr. H. A. Ni- cholls, treasurer of the club, made the presentation. Mr. Vickery al- though taken by surprise made an able and eloquent speech referring to the pleasant incidents of the game. The Band was present and. played‘ some of their liveliest selections. The ladies served cake, lemonade, ice cream and other delicacies and at the close all present, sixty in number, wished prosperity to Mr. and Mrs. Vickery and family in their new field of labour. Mr. James Brownlee, Village Inâ€" spector, has been working in the Ag- ricultural Hall for the past ftwo weeks, making a solid foundation for the asphalt floor which he purposes laying down. The officers and teachers of the Methodist Sabbath School held‘ their annual social on the lawn of Mr. W. A. Sanderson on Saturday evening, June 27th. The officers and teach- ers prepared an excellent tea, and the evening being favorable for an outdoor social, it was well patron- ized and results satisfactory. The lawn was beautifully decorated with Chinese lanterns and during the ev- ening the band enlivened the occa- sion with excellent music. The pro- ceeds amounted to about $39.00.
