The next. holi- day will be Good Friday, March 26th, and a. few places will remain closed on Easter Mondaxy, March 29th. Cor- onation- day, Wednesday. May 12th, will be an extra holiday, and it is probable that Victoria Day, Monday. May 24th, will be widely celebrated as the first holiday of the, summer season. Dominion Day, July lst, falls upon a Thursday, and Civic Holiday. August 2nd, will of course be the first Monday in August. LabOur Day comes on Monday, September 6th, and Thanksgiving Day will probably be Monday, October 11th, although the date is set each year by pro- clamation. Remembrance Day Thursday, November 11th. The King's birthday, which was quite generally observed i.. 1936, even though it does come during the busy season, occurs on Tuesday, December 14th. Christ- mas Day will be on Saturday, De- cember 25th. Read it or Notâ€"A nickel contains more copper than a penny. In an effort to reduce fire losses in rural areas, and to secure a re- duction in Eireâ€"risk premiums, all rural telephone lines in Ontario will now adopt a uniform fire signal, which is to be one long ring of five seconds. This uniformitv has been urged? and- approved by the Ontario Fire Marshall. The simple process of giving a. prolonged ring will be the signal to all subscribers to listen in and locate the fire. This ne“ regulation should be of material as- sistance in lessening fire losses; in rural sections of the province. Sub- scribers are urged to observe the new signal, andI are asked not to raise the phone receiver until the ring ceases. Canadian-s: need have no doubt as to the reality of the record of econ- omic improvement during the past twelve months. The gains have been substantial; indeed in many cases have exceeded expectations, and' the range of industries and of economic areas which have benefited from them has shown a distinct broadening out. But perhaps the most striking fact in- the situation today is the pre- vailing spirit of confidence based on the clear evidence of our recuperat- ive powers. Depression psychology is passing and the old qualities. of enterprise, self-reliance and coura- geous foresight which have been re- sponsible for Canada’s upbuilding- are beginning to reassert themselves.â€" Hon. C. A. Dunning, Federal Minis- ter of Finance. Counterfeit fifty cent pieces are in circulation in Alliston. The spurious coins are of very good worlmranship and few people have any idea they are not genuine until they offer one at the bank. It is in rubbing the coin between the thumb and first finger that the false coin is most easily detected. A genuine coin is sticky and retards the movement of the fingers, while the spurious one is greasy, the fingers readIily passâ€" ing over it. Z‘Suité me, mam,” replied the girl. “I’m a WOman of few words myself. If I shake me- head, that means I ain’t comin’.” Business: transacted at Goodwood station on the ONE. is nnlv 25 per cent of what it was a quarter cen- tury ago, and unless business im- proves- it is likely the station will be closed. “I am a woman of few words." announced the haughty mistress to the new maidv. “If I beckon with my finger, that means c0me.” Dr. G. W. Williams, M.0.H., Whit- church Township, is not exactly gu- ing on a sit down strike, but he says he won’t accept salary votei him by council and‘ moreover that. he won’t resign. Last year the M.0.H. re- ceived in salary’ and fees $lb‘5, but for 193-7 he asks $250.00. Only two months until Richmond Hill Horse Show, Victoria Day, May 24th. Newmatket tax rate for 1913-7 will be 42 mills, a reduction of i: mills from last year. ’Tis Springâ€"and here’s hoping we don’t get winter weather.

The giraffe is the orfly one of all the mammals known to man that does not have the power of making a soumi with its vocal chords. A social time was spent after which Rev. J. MacDonald expressed the regret of losing them from the community. They were then pre- sented with a handsome floor lamp and: electric iron. The girls were presented with a. Hmnary from the Mission Band: They replied in a ferw well chosen words. MI. Middleton has been a. resident in this locality over thirty years. The family are moving to Unionville the end of the month. A very pleasant time was s'pqnfi'ht the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Curtis on Tuesdiw evening, March 16 when, a Surprise Party was given to Mr. and Mrs. L. Middlxeton and family. It also was the occasion of both their birthdays. The barns and other outbuildings of Mr. George Dean, lot 18, con. 3 Markham, near Headtford, were struck by lightning- Tuesday might about 10 o’clock and burned‘ to the ground. Very little could be saved, the fire making almost a clean sweep. The 10551 will be heavy, though partially covered by insurance. The Board of Education met on Montlav afternoon.

THIRTY YEARS AGO" ' From our Issue of March 21st, 1907 The heavy freight at the Richmond Hill C.N.O. station since I‘asrt issue includes a car of hides for the New- ton Tanning‘ Company, Thursrlav, a car of salt for Mr. Joseph Hall Sat- urday, and a car of lumber for L. Innes & Sons on Monday. There was not very much interest manifested in the vote on the by- law on Mondav to raise 51.000 to widen and' improve the roadl leaddng to the C.N.O. station, 'consequently the returning: officer. Mr. Hume. and the poll-clerk, Mr. W. Hall, had an easy day. The vote was small but this, doubtless, was owing to the fact that the carrying of the lav-law was a foregone conclusion. There were 58 ballots cast for the bvâ€"law, and 7 againsrt it. and 1 ballot was rejected. A deputation from Richmond Hill attended a meeting at the Parliament Buildings on Wednesday to strenqth- en the hands of the Metropolitan Railwav Comrpany in their efforts to get a bill passed through the House permitting the Metronolitan Railway to run over the track of the Toronto Street Railway to the Union Station. The bill was defeated by 18 to 29., The Markham bit-election for two members for Division No. 5 for the County Council took place last Thurs- day and resulted as before in re- turning Mesisirs. F. K.
