Phone RA. 5429 Talking seriously‘though it is a queer old world and ,right now she’s in quite a turmoil. .Jt-is a peculiar fact that while nobody wants war we' seem to be heading straight into one. It is probable not five per cent of the people on the face of the earth desire to engage in war. Yet toâ€"day when the world is sup- posed to be at peace,there is bfiter fighting taking place in China, Cenâ€" tral Asia, various parts of Africa and Arabia, in Palestine, and in ‘Spain, while force is being used by rnore or less tyrannical governrnents to suppress the suffering and dis- contented populace in Japan, China, Siam, the U.S.S.R., parts of India, Persia, Syria, Bulgaria, Hungary, Germany, Poland, Italy, Portugal, and a dozen States of Latin Amer- ica. 1\nd nine quahfied observers out of ten predict a new world war within five years. Is the world in- sane? Wliat has heqome of the large family Bible that used to be a land- mark in any front parlor? Accord- ing to Rev. F. W. Miller of Ausâ€" tralia, the Bible has been ousted by the radio. He says the parlor has become a living-room and the Bible has been relegated lto some back room out of sight. The passing of the old family Bible will be regretted by all of us Who can remember when it was the most important and most impress- ive object in the parlor. In those days the parlor was the receiving room and show place of the home. The furniture was of the stiff horse- hair variety that was decidedly un- comfortable to sit on but was re- garded as an absolutemecessity in the furnishing of such rooms. hmnmumu 1111414, UN 1A1uu, “a Russian coal will be admitted into Canada to the extent of 250,000 tons‘ per year under the new agreement with the Soviet. Canladian exports to the United States jumped $9,000,000 in August. Except that we might predict that if there is ‘any fur flying round hereabouts on election day it is apt to be in the Board of Education elections. School Board elections have in the past been quite nice affairs but these days school mat- ters seem much to the fore in dis- cussions round corners where elec- tion contests brew. And Richmond Hill is going to have a theatre. A group of local citizens have formed a company according to best information avail- able and will shortly give to Mr. Average Citizen a chance to invest in a real home town undertaking. This is certainly a movie age and an upâ€"to-date movie house would be an asset to Toronto’s highest and healthiest suburb. All of which might suggest the question as to what is going to hap- pen around here when municipal elections do roll round. Reeve J. A. Greene was ‘a long time making the chair of chief magistrate but once he got seated thereithe people ap- pear to want to keep him sitting right on the job. So far the local municipal pot look); as calm and peaceful as the pyramids. Up in Newmarket they have de- cided to have their municipal elec- tions the first Mondayr in December instead of the first Monday in Janu- ary. Soundé like a fair good idea. It is now the practice in many towns and seems to be gaining in popular- ity. Anyway who wants municipal election talk for Christmas dinner? Norman Wice, an Innisfil Town- ship farmer, when working in the field recently had the remarkable experience of witnessing a great bolt of lightning hit the ground about 35 yards from him. The lightning struck the ground and tore a hole four or five feet long and about a foot deep. M-cKim Township in the Sudbury district this year will have a tax rate of 92 mills, which is the high- est in the province of Ontario. This relief is a funny business, remarks an exchange, 'and recounts the story of a relief recipient who when confronted with an order less- ening his allowance, flew off the handle and exclaimed “this is the last straw, I’ll quit relief and look for a job.” General News & Views The annual meeting of King and Vaughan Plowmen’s Association was held in the Masonic Hall, Maple, on Saturday, the 15th inst. The audi- tors’ report showed the association to be in good standing. The date set for the coming match is Thurs- day, November 8th. The match will be held in the Township of Vaughan. The following officers were duly electedzâ€"President, Wm. Walking- ton; Vice-President, Jas. Cameron; Treasurer, Geo. Lawson; Secretary, IJ. T. Saigeon; Directors, Jas. Mc- 1Lean Sr., T. H. Legge, S. Lemon, A. D. Carley, R. Thomas, A. McCallum, A. L. McNeil, S. Jamieson, S. Mc- Clure, A. B. Wells, R. Jones, Jas. Sutton, Wm. Wells, J. J. Marshall, George Phillips, Andrew McNeil, T. Butt, Chas. Witty, Wm. Glass; Hon~ oral-y Directors: Alex. Cameron, Jas. Wells. The members purpose makâ€" ing this the best match ever held by the association. The completion of the James Bay Railway to Parry Sound was mark- ed by a trip Sunday over the road ‘by Mr. D. D. Mann, First Vice- President, and party. The trip was made in six hours, the distance beâ€" ing 150 miles. There were nine in the party, including Mr. D. B. Hanna, Third Vice-President. The train was in charge'of Conductor Brooks and Engineer Yarnall. The road was considered in satisfactory condition, and it‘is expected will be open for passenger and freight traffic in a- bout two weeks. The Toronto Street Railway car- ried 4,540,829 passengers during the two weeks of the Exhibition. THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of Sept. 27th, 1906 A memorial service for the late Mrs. George Hooper was held in the Methodist Church last Sunday even- ing, when an impressive sermon was preached by the Pastor, Rev. Mr. McCulloch. Last Friday evening a large num- ber of the friends of Mr. and Mrs. G. Smith met at the residence of Mr. T. Cousins, Maple, to spend a social evening with them before their removal to their new home in Elm- vale. The time was spent with games and. music, and {-after sup-per was served Mr. and. Mrs. Smith were made the recipients of a handsome easy chair. Miss L. Rumble made the presentation, and Miss S. Mc- Donald read the address. Mr. Smith replied feelingly and in suitable terms, thanking those present for their expression of goodâ€"will toward him and his wife.- Shortly after midnight the company dispersed, having spent a very pleasant even- mg. In the semi-final matches for the league championship, Weston has de- feated Ellesmere 5-0 in the lfirst match; in the second Ellesmere re- versed things by a score of 2-0. The tie will be played off at York on October 3rd. In the Nobleton grounds Nobleton has defeated Au- rora 2-0, and these teams will plav their second match at Aurora. The championship now hangs between these four teams. The Munshaw farm, consisting of 65 acres, two lots south of this Vill- age, was sold at the Palmer House on Saturday by auctioneer Eckardt. The purchaser was Mr. Isaac Doll- ery, of Fairbank, and the price paid is $3,800. WAY BACK IN LIBERAL FILES Hon. Harry C. Nixon, Minister of Game and Fisheries, has announced that no shooting of partridge would be allowed in Ontario this fall, in view of reports that the birds are practically extinct. FORTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of October 1, 1896 Down in East York the other day a deputation asked the right to hold a tag day to help the defenders of democracy in Spain. One wise town- ship father opposed the request on the grounds that by the end of the week there’d be no one left over there To help. “Who was doing that terrible swearing at your house this morn- ing, Henry?” asked the old lady. “I do hope it wasn’t you." “No indeed,” protested Henry, “that wap Pop. You see, he was late for church and couldn’t find his symn-book.” And talking about what we heard reminds us of what a friend of ours told us the other day. He said “It's wise to believe only half what you hear and then forget half of that.” v V A vuuu.
