It is Well built and generously design-ed, but the sanitary and heat- ing equipment has for some years been mosrt unsatisfactory. May I utilize the columns of your valuable paper to extend to the citi- zens of Richmond Hill Public School Section a cordial invitation to visit and inspect the school. Owing to the depressed conditions of the past; five or six years the renovation of this equipment has been postponed from year to year. This year however the Board of Trustees considered that funther delay was both unwise and unnecessary, and during the last two months, new equipment has been installed which will place our school amOng‘ the best in the province. Extensive decora- tion of the interior has also been done. We believe that the public in gen- eral would appreciate an opportun- ity to inspect these improvements, and for this purpose the doors will be open between the hours of 8 and 10 pm. on Friday, Sept. 17th. All are welcome. PURSE-SNATCHER ATTACKS WIFE OF COUNTY CONSTABLE When a Large transformer was out of commission last Saturday evening and the town was in darkness Mrs. S. A. Barraclough, wife of S. A. Barraclough of the County police force was the victim of a. sneak thief of the purseâ€"snatching variety. As Mrs. Barraclough walked by the High School on Mill Street near her home a man crept up behind her and grabb- ed her shopping bag. As she en- deavoured to hold on to the bag she was forcibly thrown in the ditch and the thief made away with the bag which contained a pair of shoes and some groceries but no money. In the darkness it was impossible to secure much idea of the assailant but the police are working on ~.ome clues which have come to light. PAUL E. ANGLE, Chairman, Richmond Hill Board of Public School Trusrtees. F-ire, which broke out early Sunday morning, completely destroyed three buildings and partly damaged anoth- er in the business section of the vi11L age of Sutton. The blaze is believed to have start- ‘ed in a house occupied by George Thompson and his family. It spread quickly to the next house, owuedi by 'Chesley Scott, and burned the struc- 'ture to the ground., A machine shop, at the rear of his residence was not damaged. The exceptionally high wind fanned the flames and carried sparks over a greater part of the village, menacing stores and residences. Heat given off by the fire was so intense that windows in stores across the street were cracked and broken.

Ln the livestock and poultry judg- ing, nineteen of the York Junior Far- mers were prize winners, the next highest County having thirteen in the money. The County team of young ladies consisting of Sarah McNeil, Woodbridge, Dorothy Hewitt, Scar- boro and Gertrude Coakwell, Stouff- ville, in the contest on “Dressing up Home Grown Vegetables”, won first prize standing lst, 2nd, and 8th re- spectively: in their individual scores. The York Demonstration team stood 3rd being outscored by Durham and Hastings teams. The boys representing the Boys’ Calf Club sponsored by Uhe Wood- bridvge Agricultural Society and sup- ervised by W. M. Cockburn, Agricul- tural Representative, have reason to be proud of their succeSS‘. With thir- tyi-five Holstein calves competing, the four Woodbridvg‘e calves won 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 7th and- were keen competi- tors for the lst prize group. In the Jersey class, the boys captured lst, 2nd and; 4th, as well as lst for a group of three calves and lst for Showmanship. While the Calf Club show drew the largest ringside of the livestock show, the most interesting feature to the spectators was eight-year old Allan Bagg showing the winning Club jer- sey for his brother James who was ill. Unfortunately, he is too young for club work so while his showman- ship was outstanding, he was not eligible for that contest. Aidan had assisted his father in the breeders’ class the week previous by: showing a. prize winning calf. Swine judgingâ€"Donald W. Pear- son, Agincourt, 5th; Frank Codang, Malton, 10th.
