Friday, April 8th was a typical winter day. Strong wind and a heavy fall of snow dispelled visions of an early spring. You are invited to attend church service on Good Friday. Ontario Legislature session con- cluded last Friday and the House of Commons adjourned the same day ,for the Easter recess. | /I This man Hitler sure knOWs how to run an election. Last Sunday‘s .voting was quite decisive. Words of a man teaching his wife ‘to drive an automobile: , “Now we‘re all set. Just turn the Ejigger over and push on the hickcy with your left hand and pull down ‘that other jimcrack with your right. ,Then prclss down the doodad with your foot and pull the thingmabob at the same time, and when it starts you push on the dofunny with your i left foot and yank the umptyâ€"diddy back and then let up on the foot dingus. and put your other foot on the hiekey-madoodlc. Don't forget; to push down on the hOotnanny ev- ery time you move that whatyouâ€" macallit, and you’ll be hunky-dorey, 'see?" Communities in the Collingwood district are reviving the old game of horseshocs and are planning to organize a league. The cat is out of the bag with the announcement last week by Pre- mier Hepburn that his Government will introduce a‘ bill at next session lfor the abolition of County Counâ€" The announcement is not a‘ surprise to the Reeves who have been ‘ members of the County Council dur- , ing the past few years, as the func- tions of that body have been graduâ€" ally curtailed so that to-day their powers are very limitedâ€"Tara Lea- der. At a meeting of the Boys’ and Girls’ Work Committee of the New- nlarket Lions Club on Saturday ev- ening, it was decided to sponsor a Boys’ Grain Club for farm boys from 12 to 20 years inclusive in York County, north of and including the eastern part of King and and the northern part of VVhitchurch. The Fergus Newsâ€"Record tells of an official of a rural telephone sys- l tem. who paid a surprise visit to a ' farm home, and caught the farmer’s wife in an embarrassing situation. “Listening In” has its attraction, but it’s tiresome standing up at a rural telephone for a long period, and be- sides this lady had some work to. do at the table. So she drew her table over near the telephone, sat, down at her work with the receiver- tied to her ear with an arrange- ment made out of string.

EASTER There was one who came Garden At the breaking of the day, When the soft wind stirred the lily, And the dew drop gummed the spray. She stood by the graveside weeping; She gazed on the darksome space And turned from the vision of angels To the risen Saviour’s Face. They wore twain who journed at even And listened with hearts that glowed To the wondrous talk of the stranger They met on the village road. They prayed Hiln to sojourn with them, And gathered about the board To know as the bread was broken, The presence of Christ, the Lord. There were those in the upper cham- her With spirits stricken and soreâ€"â€" The little band of disciples Within the guarded door; And hearts all weary with weeping Wch lightened with joy to greet The Master standing among them, to the ‘one or two amendments. . lnotc the project by every means in ‘vel'andah of the Colonial style.

WAY BACK IN LIBERAL FILES FORTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of April 14th, IRQS Josh endeavored to surprise the natives this week by driving into town with a new milk wagon. The predominant colors are red and green. The whole outlfit is showy and attractive, and the best thing about it is that milk remains at the same price. Many handsome monuments have been erected of late years in the Richmond Hill cemetery, but the best stone there, and in all likeli- hood the best in West York, is that finished a short time ago over the remains of the late John Hart. The monument is well proportioned and is a credit to the firm which erected it, W. W. Price of Brampton. The stone is a grey granite and was or- dered by the executors of the estate. A meeting of the Agricultural So- ciety was held yesterday afternoon. The prize list as revised by the Exe- cutive Committee was adopted with It was de- cided to add a lacrosse match to the programme of sports. It was finally decided to run an excursion to the ‘Muskoka Lakes during the month of June. After appointing judges for the various departments and com- mittees of management, the meeting adjourned. The attendance at the vestry meet- ing at St. Mary's, in this village was about as usual. The business was all transacted very quietly and satis- factorily. The Rector, who presidâ€" ed, remindcd those present that for ten years he had been impressing upon them the desirability, almost the necessity. of such an impOrtant place as Richmond Hill being made the centre of a new parish. He hoped it. might soon be accomplished, and assured them of his readiness to pro- his power. Many of our citizens and several families in the vicinity contributed' i liberally on Good Friday with Easter offerings for the little sufferers in the Hospital forSick Children, To- ronto. Besides books, oranges and other things, there were 24 dozen of eggs and over 30 jars and sealers of fruit and jelly. THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of April 9th, 1908 Mr. Charles Comisky has moved on to the Eyer farm which he reâ€" cently purchased and is getting things in “ship shape.” Mr. F. McConagliy is having erect- ed along the east side of his resi- dence a very comfortable looking The Sons. The local curlers had a game in the rink Saturday afternoon and Saturday evening, the 4th of April, and the ice was in first-class conâ€" dition. There is only one reason why our curlers are not found in absence of ice. The hose-coupling contests by members of the Fire Brigade were completed Monday evening. In the open race Sims and Trench were lst, Brydon and Dolan 2nd. In the regu- lar ’contest Wigmore and Wilson were 1st, Brydon and Star-trip 2nd, and Lecce and Graham 3rd. l Mr. \Levi Elliott has again enâ€" gaged with Mr. Fred Clark for the season. l\ll'.
