Pickering township council has awarded $10 for the killing of any dog- caught molesting sheep, and Mr. Byer exâ€" pects to collect $20 when council meets again. “I cannot say that these two dogs which were killed were responsible for all the slaughter, but I believe they were,” Mr. Mac. Forsyth, sheep. valuator, stated. “While there was a killing almost daily when they were at large there has not been a sheep molested since the dogs were caught a few days ago.” RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26th, 1936. Farmers in the district have been worried over dogs taking their sheep, but despite every precaution the animals made many killings. At times they came right up to the barns and attacked the animals in the fold at nights. “Now that I’m on relief I go to the movies 7 times a week, every afternoon, at a cost of 15 cents per day; “If I took a job I would have to go at night and play 40 cents a night. That would make the movies cost me $1.75 more than they cost me now. “And if I take a job I’ll have to pay 60 cents a week subway fare, making a total extra cost of $2.35 more than I pay now. Believed to have killed 107 sheep in the neighbourhood southeast of Stouffville, two dogs Were shot re- cently by George Byer after the ani- mals attacked and killed nine of his geese. The attack was made in day- light. “I can’t take a job paying $2 per week more than relief because I can’t afford it,” the applicant quoted by the magazine says. “So you can easily see why I can’t take your job. I’d be 35 cents worse off, even if your job pays $2 more a week than I’m getting from relief.” Yes, sir, it’s gotten to the point that a man on home relief can’t; af- ford to accept a job. The American Mercury tells of one case in point. A new racket was uncovered in Lindsay police court recently, when E. Fredenburg and G. W. Long, both of Toronto appeared before His Wor- ship Magistrate A. E. McGee on charges of conspiracy to defraud by deceit the public. The charge arose out of the activities of the two in Lindsay in connection with a pro- ject in which they were collecting children’s photographs from local women for the punpose of entering them in a beauty contest, it is a]- leged. Later the men returned and asked the women to give them a cer- tain sum of money by which they were guaranteed a certain place in the contest. One lady gave them $250 and another $75. Fatherâ€"“Darling, what has hapâ€" pened? Why have youl got that plaster over your eye ‘2" new hat.” By a vote of 168 to 30 the rate- payers of 'Bolton have voted for the installation of a modern water sys- tem. In Litchfield, 111., Pastor L. A. Crown, preached on “Litchfieldi’s Worst Sin â€"â€" Ingratitude,” pledged husbands of the Union Avenue Chris- tian Church to kiss their wives twice daily for six weeks. The Christmas season is almost here and those who are fortunate enough to have “plenty” should give a thought for those who “have not." The fund handled by Mrs. McCons- aghy at the Public School does much good in providing needed clothing for children and if you have a dollar to spare the fund could stand a few donations at this time of year when there are many demands. There were 388 entries tato Fair held‘ at Barrie Work is commencing at once on a new movie theatre in Bradford. It is expected to be finished by Febru- ary. Mayor Dr. Boyd of Newmarket has announced that he is retiring from municipal politics at the end of this year. Warden J. 0. Little, present deputyâ€"reeve of Newmarket is mentioned as a likely successor. General News & Views Daughterâ€"“Plaster ? That’s my in the Po- last week. The family no longer needs to fight over the white meat from that Sunday chicken. An Illinois chicken farm, using scientific methods in- volving the use of violet rays in place of daylight, produces chickens with only white meat, Local hunters have returned with their full count of game and report an enjoyable outing in the north. Last Monday, November 19, was a historic day all along the line of the ,Canadian Northern Railway, from ‘Toronto to Parry Sound, a distance :of about 149 miles. The road was ‘opened on Monday for regular pass- enger traffic, the first train steamâ€" ing out of the Union Station at 8.10. Crowds of people gathered at most , of the important stations, and showed ,their appreciation of the new line by cheering and waving of handkerâ€" chiefs. At Beaverton a band was at the station, and smaller demon- strations were held at various other places. Many of the prominent citi- zens at Richmond Hill showed their interest in the railroad by their presence at the opening, and ex- pressed a belief that a benefit to the town is sure to result. The train that went north was made up of a firstâ€"class smoker, and a mail and iexpress car. The accommodatiomiifias quite up_to-date. The principal staâ€" tions along the line are as follows: â€"Toronto, Rosedale, Duncan, Thornâ€" hill, Richmond Hill, Gormley, Van- dorf, Pine Orchard, Mount Albert, Zephyr, Cedardale, Pefferlaw, Bea- verton, Gamebridge, Brechin, Udney, Monk Road, Washago, Sparrow Lake, South Wood, Torrance, Dudley, Foot’s Bay, Lake Joseph, Blackstone, Fald- ing and Parry Sound. Mr. C. P. Wiley of this town, traveller for the firm of Micklebor: ough, Muldrew & 00., Toronto, pur- chased at the Union Station Satur- day morning ticket N0. 0, the first ever sold on the line of the Canadâ€" ian Northern Railway. Mr. Wiley took the train Monday morning at Richmond Hill station for Parry Sound. On Monday, the 26th of October, the first sod of the Metropolitan Railway extension, from York Mills to this Village, a distance of nearly ten miles, was turned, and Thursday night last, the 19th inst., between 9 and 10 o’clock, the first car reach- ed‘ here on the newly-laid rails. Naâ€" turally, there was ,a good deal of excitement when it was learned that the car was on the road, and many cheers were given for the Metro- politan Railway Company and Mr. Moyes, as the genial and energetic manager, passed thrOugh on the first railway car ever seen in Rich- mond Hill. It is needless to say the overhead wires are not yet erected all along the line, so to be true to their contract the car had to be drawn through by horses instead of electricity, which will follow in a few weeks if the weather keeps favorable. Two trips a day are now being made, and the roadbed is gettâ€" ing- in very good condition. The arâ€" rival of every car is Watched: with interest, but the opening ceremony will not be inaugurated until the electric system is put in operation. THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of November 22, 1906 There was quite a fall of snow on Saturday last, probably 4 inches. The sleigh bells were jingling in the evening, but by Monday “the beau- tiful” had almost entirely disappear- ed. Monday of this week was a his- toric day for Toronto. The first power from Niagara Falls and the first train over the Canadian North- ern Railway reached the city on that day. Mr. E. J. Hitchcock has been en- gaged for the Buttonville school for the year 1897. The new Windâ€"mill has been erect- ed in the park and looks well. Some of our citizens say its chief utility will not be pointed out till nomina- tion day. At a recent meeting of King- Re. formers the following gentlemen were elected officers for the year:â€" Pr-esident, J. M. Walton, Kettleby; Viceâ€"President, T. J. Ferguson, King; Sec..Treas., C. Bogart, Kettleby. A committee of four was also appointâ€" ed for each of the nine divisions of the Township.
