Five years ago, Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin declared: “When I conceive a matter to be one of prin- ciple, I feel I would rather go to the stake than give way. It sometimes bring-s“ {tie into trouble, and has brought my friends into trouble, but I am afrai<£ that characteristic Will remain with me as long as I live.” It may come as a surprise to the ‘reader to learn from an Ottawa statement that the production of horse-drawn vehicles in this country is still valued at over a million dollâ€" 'ars a year. The horse lover still de- ‘mands sulkies and light rigs for 'trotting races andl horse shows; busi- ness still calls for delivery wagons of certain types; while the farmer ~and lumberman continue to use heavy wagons and sleighs. If you Vvere asked who is the rich- ‘est man in the world you would prob- [ably say Henry Ford or Jno. D‘. Rockefeller. But listen to this from Scribner’s Magazine: “The Nizam of ‘Hydera'badl is by far the wealthiest ‘man on earth. By the universal reckoning thae VNizam is worth at least one billion dollars. He has 800 ‘tons of gold stored up in the strong ’room of his palaceâ€"more gold than 'the Bank of England holds today. The stoop-shouldered, collee-colored master of 13,000,000 lives has so many diamonds, rubies, emeralds and .pearlls that he could use shovels to 'take them from the bins Where they 'are stored.” Local legend is that Britain will 'hold Gibraltar only until the last of *the wild apes of the Rock dies. To impress superstitious Spaniards, the British Government fe‘ed‘s, breeds, ’guards the apes, makes it illegal to harm them. When the troop dwindled ‘to two age-withered- females a few 'years ago, Rock officials imported 'new ape blood. Ape population is ‘now twelve. “If Candlemas Day be dry and fair, The half 0’ winter’s to come and Former head of the Canadian Radrio Commission, Hector Charlesworth, is returning to journalism, another proof that the pen is mightier than the “mike.” mair; iIf Candlemas Day be wet and fowl, The half 0” winter’s gone at Yule.” “Any woman can train herself to move slowly and gracefully." Except when the 'phone rings. â€"â€" Kingston Whig-Standard. A price of $1.75 per bag to farm- ers for potatoes is reported in the Stouffville district. Kindness is a language the dumlb can speak, and the deaf can hear and understand. If your foot slips you can recover your balance; if your tongue slips you cannot recall your words.â€"â€"-Kitch- ener Record. In Chicago, Charles A. Johnson, 64, was awarded a divorce after 35 years of married life, explained that for the last 15 his wife had habitually called him “Skunk.” ‘To mark the completiOn of 45 years as a member of the Aurora United Church choir W.

KANE An enjoyable evening ,was spent in Forester’s Hall on Friday even- ing last, when Court Richmond No. I 7046, A.O.F. had for their,guests the llocal camp of the Sons of Scotland. er. H. A. Nicholls was in hisvhappi- ‘est mood as chairman, and on be- ‘half of Court Richmond welcomed the visiting brethren in well chosen words. After an hour spent in var- ious kinds of games and amusements the meeting was called to order, and an interesting programme was well carried out. A pleasant feature of the evening was the presentation to Bro. Wm. Gilbson, who is leaving the Village for British Columbia, of a. Forester’s Pin; another pin with apâ€" propriate emblems by the SOS. and a Book of Praise on behalf of the Presbyterian Church Board. The pre- sentation on behalf of his brother Foresters‘was made by Bro. T. H. Trench, Bro. T. Newton presented the THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of January 31, 1907 The York County Council Old Boys’ Association was formed at a meet- ing at the Clyde Hotel on Tuesday evening of last week. The officers elected lare: President, W. H. John- ston; Vice-Presidents, W. J. Hill, W. H. Pugsley, H. Duncan; Treasurer, John Ramsden; Secretary, W. H. Hall. These together with J. D. Evans and C. E. Lundry were ap- pointed to draft a constitution. ‘ Hon. Wilfrid Laurier accompanied ‘by Hon. Wm. M‘ulock and uthEI' pro- lminent Liberals, passed: by Richmond Hill station on Monday morning en 'route for Orillia and other northern towns where they addressed meet- ings in favor of Mr. H. H. Cook for .North Ontario. On Saturday afternoon last two rinks from here went to Thornhill to play a friendly game which had been talked of for some time. All the players from here were young men who have not been in the habit of playing matches, but Iby the man- ner in which they acquitted them- selves .on Saturday, we think they wbuld do no discredit to the club if they represent it in all matches. The game was won. by Richmond Hill by four points. After the match the visitors were entertained to supper at Hughes Hotel. l A meeting' of the Board of Ed!!â€" cation was held on Wednesday. Mem- ‘loers present: Messrs. Storey, New- ton, McConaghy, McDonald, Boyle. Lynett, Harrison, Clu‘bine. Switzer l and Dr. Hutchison. As this was the {annual meeting. the Secretary an- l nounced the business, the first being -to appoint a chairman for the year The following officers were then an. pointed: Chairman, M. Naughton; Sec.â€"Treas., J. Switzer; Committee of Management, Messrs. Newton Storey and Boyle. An account for seats and desks for the High, School from the Novelty Company, New- market, amounting" to $177 was, on motion, ordered paid. The minutes of last meeting showed that the Sec- retary had been instructed to deposit the $2000 cheque, received‘for insur- ance, in the Bank of Commerce. A resolution of condolence to the be- reaved familly‘ was unanimously car- ried relative to the death of Mr. W. H. Glass, late chairman of the Board. Mr. Harrison reported to the Board relative to available sites for the new High School. Those retferred to were the old site, the park, ‘the Arn- old property, Richardson farm, Stockdale’s and Ambler’s. The mem- ‘bers of the Board thought the park would be likely selected, and several advantages and disadvantages in their opinion were referred to. It was finally resolved that the Reeve 'be requested to call a public meet. ing of the ratepayers so that the wishes of the people ‘in the selection of a site can be obtained. On mo- tion the Secretary was instructed to have the new High School desks, etc., insured to the amount of $200. The citizens of this Village, and all along Yonge Street will be glad to know that the Metropolitan Rail- way Company have employed Mr. R. Thompson, late of Thompson’s bus line, to look after their parcels and all kinds of freight to or from the city. There has been considerable trouble and annoyance during the past few weeks over parcel delivery, but now that Mr. Thompson has been engaged those entrusting him with parcels may expect prompt delivery. He will leave here by first car every morning.
