Relief in the Township of Whit- church showed an appreciable drop for March when the total outlay was Only $174, as compared with slightly over $400 for the same period in 1937. The steady demand for farm help and the better position of the farmer in being able to hire addi- tional man power on the farms has .much to do with the change no doubt. Because our governing bodies have not had sense enough to live within their incomes we Canadians have ac- cumulated a debt of over eight billion dollars, or some $800 per head for every last person in the country. Chickens will come home to roost some day unless we right about face and begin to spend less than our income and reduce our appalling debt. John Bull is making it easier for Tommy Atkinvs. He won’t have to shine any more buttons, for on the proposed new uniforms some of the buttons are hidden and others are zip fasteners. But best of all his pack is to be lightened. Each soldier is to have a small hand case for his personal articles and these are to be carried 1by motor transport while he is on the ‘march. Veterans of the Great War will be almost ready to enlist over again. Newmarket will erect a new voca- tional wing to the High School at a cost of $24,000 of which the province will pay half. “Notwithstanding world conditions unsettled !by civil and undeclared wars, the aggressive'and‘ swaggerin‘g attitudes of distatorships, and the re- action in security values, wholesale prices in Canada in common with other economic factors as ~emp10ymenrt and physical volume of business showed remarkable improvement."â€" H. S. T. Piper. It is estimated that we have in Canada 375,000 public officials and employees, which means that for ev- ery seven families in the Dominion there is at least one government ser- vant looking after their day to day public needs, says “Canadian Busi- ness.” Canada is: surely the most over governed country on earth. The number of things for which Premier M. F. Hepburn of the Pro- vince of Ontario is credited, is le- gion, and apparently the end is not yet, according to Principal S. H. Connor of Tweed Consolidated School. On a recent examination in grade VII history, pupils were asked to name an important character in» Canadian Histony, who played an im- portant part in the early settlement of Upper Canada. One fboy answered»: "Mr. Hepburn.” “Governments are not solely to blame for any backwardnes‘s in major social reforms. Governments have to findi the mOney, and while they are given plenty of advice as- to what they should do, they do not get much help in finding the wherewithal.”â€" W. T. Burforf. Three weeks from next Tuesday is Fair Day in Richmond Hill. Start now to be a booster for the big day. Night prowlers have been busy in Aurora recently and several: resiâ€" dences haize been Ibroken into. “What a. happy country Canada would be if everyone who professes and calls himself a Christian were living as Christ would have him live. And why Should“ we no:t?”â€"Bishop* Farthing. This is the season to help brighten up your community by a clean up and paint up campaign. .The 1939 plates will be yell-ow and. black “with large numbers,” accordl- ing to an announcement made re- cently by Highways Minister T. B. McQuesten. In- a previous statement in the legislature, Mr. McQues‘ten saidI he would “take the blame” for the much criticised 1938 plates which are orahge and blue. Samples of IiCense plates which are to be used on motor vehicles in Ontario in 1939 will be run off at the Ontario Reformatory this week, according to Dr. J. D. Heaslip, sup- erintendent at the institution. The new style plates will have to receive official government approval before work on the year’s supply is start- ed. General News & Views Clean up and- paint up mm ml “I would, mister," er, “but I can only quart at night an’ morning.” Another pioneer of Vauglhan pass- eci away Friday afternoon in the person of Mr. Michael Fisher of Pine Grove, aged eighty-six years. The funeral was held' Monday fore‘ noon at the Lutheran church ihere. The Mail & Empire 'has entered into an arrangement with the New York Herald and London Times whereby it WilI give the latest and rhos't reliaible news of the Spanish- American war. Richard Harding Davis of New Yark and Mr. Akers of the London Times will be the chief correspondents for those papâ€" ers. The Metropolitan Company are running a new car No. 11, this week. She is a beauty, and the peOple here are much pleasecf with the new ac- commodation. From our Issue of April 28th, 1898 Last evening (Wednesday) a meet- ing of gentlemen was held at the home of Mr. Ernest Coomlbs for the purpose of organizing a tennis club. The result was that all the business which is necessary to bring the clwb into existence was transacted. The following officers were elected: Hon. Pres., Mr. I. Crosby; President, Dr. Langstaff; Vice-President, Mrs. (Dr.) Hutchison; Secretary-Treasurer, Mr. Ernest Coomfbs; Com., Dr. Hutchi- son, Mr. Garvin, Mr. F. Johnston. As the club has received from Mr. Crosby the kindI permission of play- ing on his beautiful lawn, the name of “Crosby Hall Tennis Club” has been chosen for the new organiza- tion. The club expect to have the grounds ready by the beginning of next week. A new tower is being built on the Methodist Church in Maple which will add greatly to its appearance. At. a meeting of creditors and re- presentatives of the Farmers" Loan Company held on Monday it was: de- cided to accept the offer of Hon. Wm. Mulock of $150,000 in settle- ment of his liability as director, with a further payment of $50,000 to conâ€" stitute a fund for widows and or- phans and, other destitute persons 'who were effected by the failure of the said company. Passing through a village street. a recruiting sergeant met a young farmh-and delivering- milk. “Now, my lad, wouldn’t you like to serve the King?” he asked. The Smoker .held' under the aus- pices of the Richmond Hill Hockey Club in the Lorne Hall last evening was a decided success. The amuse- ment of the evening took the form of Progressive Euchre, and in. all ten tables were used, and eleven games were played. Mr. Robert Tyn- dJaJl being the winner of the most games obtained first prize, and to Mr. Arch. Savage was awarded the bodby prize. During the game ci- gars were dispensed and when full justice was done to these the more fragrant clay pipes with French toâ€" bacco was introduced. After the playing a light luncheon was par- taken of. The successful players were presented with their several tro- phies by Mr. H. A. Nicholls. To Mr. Tyndall was given a handsome briar pipe with amber tip and silver fer- rule, enclosed in a neat case, and to Mr. Savage, the less expensive but just as good a smoker, “the corn cob”. Altogether a most enjoyable evening was spent by all present. WA Y BACK IN LIBERAL FILES Mr. H. A. Nicholls informs us the Mill Street property of Mr. Frank Cosgrove of Elgin Mills has been purchased by Mr. Isaac Walder. The purchase price was in the neigh- borhood of nine hundred dollars. Mr. Wm. Rumble of Patterson has purchased from the Cook estate the farm in the north part of the vill- age, at present occupied )by Mr. Geo. Thompson and formerly known as “The Red Barn Farm”. The farm consists of albout 134 acres. We are pleased to see substantial citi- zens like Mr. Rumble becoming land owners in our town. At the last meeting of the Mark~ ham Township council accounts were passed for shovelling snow during the winter amounting to over $850. and less than half the divisions were heard from. When the accounts are an in it is estimated that it will have cost the ratepayers nearly $2,000 for keeping the roads open last win.- her.
