There is no shade in the city and the pavements are hot underfootl Steadin applications pour into the Neighborhood Workers Association headquarters from distracted parents who, asking nothing for themselves, want only that their small children should enjoy a short while in the cool and shade of the country. With heart both crushed and sore; But in the gloom the sweet words come, "Not lost, but gone before.” God knows how much I miss you, He counts the tears I shed; And Whispers, He only sleeps, Your loved one is not dead.

THE LIBERAL, RICHMGND HILL, ONTARIO Social and Personal Interment at Thornhm Ceme- IN MEMORIAM IN MEMORIAM C‘utting‘ shortly before midnight received a telephone call purporting- to be from an acquaintance, who wanted a hired man brought out. As Cutting later was driving the pair, whom he did not recognize, to Au- rora, he was told" to proceed to Wil- cox Lake, Where it was alleged the woman lived. DARING HOLD-UP AT WILCOX LAKE “ Held up at the point of a revol- ver, Elmer Cutting, Newmarket, was, early Wednesday morning, robbed of his car, $45 in cash and most of his clothing by a young man and woman believed to be Indians. Transportation to the destination (which must be within 150 miles) is supplied by the Assoc. The child is medically examined before leaving town, and though he or she may bn pale and thin, hostesses can be sure there is nothing organically wrong. If there is room in your home for ‘a little childâ€"just for a two week period, the Neighborhood Workers Association earnestly asks you to consider playing fairy godmother to some boy or girl, by forwarding an invitation to 22 Weflesley Street, To- ronto. Your letter should be accom- panied by a note from the local clergyman or a prominent member of the' community. As the car approached a dark spot, Cutting felt the gun. being pressed against his ribs, and the next thing he knew he was searched and robbed. His assailants then stripped him of his clothing, except shirt and pants, and, after warning him that he was being watched, told him to remain still, as the pair drove away in his car. A man and woman answering the description of Cutting’s assailants were reported as having been seen in the Newmarket district earlier in the evening. They are believed to be the two who, driving a stolen car early Tuesday, evaded capture by Provincial Officer Spencer by driving through two fences, and then escap- ing on foot to a thick bush. In asking friends to open their homes to unfortunate children such as these, the Neighborhood Workers Association does not expect an elabâ€" orately planned holiday, it is pointed out by the General Secretary, F. N. Stapleford. All they ask is the op- portunity of sending one or two chil- dren to a home which will provide a brief relief from their hard exist- ence. It might even be a home on the outskirts of the city- just so long as it possessed a large garden in which the children could play. Constable Syd Barraclough, Rich- mond Hill, and' Provincial Officer Spencer, Bradford, are now combing *the district for any trace of the two bandits, who are believed to be in hiding. In the car recovered bv Spencer, a quantity of fruit anv] groceries, identified as having been stolen from the Dominion Store in ‘Richmond Hill, was recovered. ON THE BEACH Come, youngsters get some old duds on, We’ll seek a balmy beach, And dig and build ti-ll day is gone, Beyond the breakers reach. We’ll lay us out a noble town, Upon a sandy plain, And if a big wave tears it down We’ll build it up again. Invitations have been coming in from many kind hostesses, but un- fouurately the applicatims outnum- ber them about three L0 the. There are many pathetic cases reported by district workers For instance there are two little boys, ages nine and eleven, who live with their mother in two tiny rooms over a store on a hot, dirty streci. The mother at 'present is ill, and the lads are hav- ing- to look after themselves. How it would aid that mother toward re- covery if she knew her boys were somewhere in the country, getting lots of fresh air, food and sunshine. We’ll dig a trench down to the sea, A channel deep and wide, Upon whose flooded length so free Our driftwood ships shall ride. We’ll watch the tide runu to and fro, Along its crunching wall, And let the sunny hours go Without a care at all. You can’t see it, but your grand- children will long for these adven- turous days when civilization was in the making. B. Bloomfield Jordan, barrister, solicitor etc. announces the opening of an office at 84 Yonge Street, for the general practice of his profes- sion. ANNOUNCEMENT CAN YDUHHELP?
