MARY’S ANGLICAN CHURCH RICHMOND HILL Professor Squirrell of the Ontario Agricultural Glollege, Guelph, who was fatally injured in a car acci- dent near Hamilton last Saturday was well known in Richmond Hill and district.

Reeve Greene on his return to the Village this week confirmed our note following a communication in last week’s Liberal from “Taxpayer” criticizing the action of the Library Board in the appointment of a Li- brarian. “It is quite true,” said Reeve Greene “that I favored the appointment of someone not now em< ployed to the position of librarian. At the first meeting I made my views very clear, that I favored the appointment of a man to the posi- tion, and also favored the appoint- ment of one not now employed. I maintained this view throughout the proceedings and backed it up with my vote which was also cast in favor of a saving- in salary. However the majority of the members of the Board thought otherwise," said the Reeve. “I agree perfectly with the remarks of “Taxpayer” in his letter of last week, but I am only one of seven members on the Library Board.” The local club will hold a Twilight Tournament Friday evening for mix- ed rinks. There will be three ten end games starting sharp at 7 p.m. D.S.T. The committee hopes for a large entry of local rinks, and all bowlers whether members or not are invited to join in this tournament. The entry fee will be $2.00 per rink and there will be good prizes.
