Perhaps rthe most outstanding num- ber was the violin solo by Mrs. Ste- phenson accompanied by Mr. Stevens of Toronto. Both are indeed artists ’of outstanding ability and Unionville music lovers had a real treat in hear- ing good music so ably performed. Following the concert refreshments were served the artists and guests by the members of the choir, Rev. Owen expressing appreciation for the entertainment given. Mrs. Stephen- son replied in fitting words the plea-1 sure the visit to Unionville had been. Thirty-three ladies were in attendd ance at the April meeting of the WA. of Central United Church when . Mrs. G. Compton, Mrs. F. Pollard,‘ Mrs. F. Boadway and Mrs. B. Sabis-I The concert held on Saturday ev- ening last under the auspices of Cen- tral United Church choir proved ver- itably to be a musical treat. The orchestra numbers were especially good and reflected great credit on the teacher, Mrs. Stephenson. The ladies’ choir from Nm-th Toronto gave several splendid numbers, and the interspersed readings gave good entertainment also. M'any interesting reminiscences will be offered, we are sure, by these two venerable ladies when they meet with many friends on this happy occasion. Mrs. D. Coulson has lived in Mark- ham Township her entire life and will long be remembered for her homey philosophy and human understanding‘ of folk.

Mrs. Gibson, although a partial in- ‘ valid for many years, still retains her bright and charming personality and portrays keen interest in all wior-th while affairs. She is a de« scendant of the “Mother of Scarâ€" boro”, and a daughter of the late John Glendenning. Mrs. Gibson wil! be at home to friends on Saturday, May 7th. Mrs. D.

Announcement, is made that the {presentation of the Prize Drama bw the Junior Farmers Club is scheduled' for May 14th and will be given in( Heather Hall, Aginc0urt. The Junior’ Farmers Club has challenged the Forward Club, Knox United Church' to a debate on the much agitated question, “Legalizing Sweepstakes in' Canada”. This will be given on the same evening and certainly looks like an OK. program. Reserve the date, the evening of May 14th. Mr. Robt. Myers, our trusty mail carrier, has established a reputation that is hard to beat. Durngr his‘ eighteen years as in government serâ€" vice he has never missed a train. n. We offer congratulations to two of our township’s most honored citizens. when during the coming week Mrs. Susan Gibson of Milliken will cele- brate her 90th birthday and Mrs. D. Coulson‘will turn her eighty-second mile stone in life’s way. ~ An instructive paper on Vitamins, given by Alice Dai‘llngton, brought many suggestions of proper menus to insure good health. Miss Dar- lington also won the lucky draw. A debate on the question “Resolved that the unmarried girl is happier than her married sister,” with Eva Hunter and Miss Bainbridge present- ing the affirmative and Isabel Whit- taker and Helen Little defending the negative, resulted in the decision be- ing given to the negative. Rozina Barker, Miss Powney and Mina Som- merville acted as judges. The roll call to be responded to by choosing the happiest girl in the club, many were mentioned, which speaks well for the temperament of the girls. Nellie Clark presided at the Home- maker-s meeting and introduced Miss Lulu C. Powney, who very ably de- monstrated the Kraft Cheese pro- ducts, making delicious sandwiches and salads that looked very appetiz- mg. “Here we go gathering nuts in May,” might easily be the slogan of the young folk who attended the Junior Farmer and Homemakers Clubs held on Monday evening last in the Township Hall, for there were many kernels of valuable informa- tion/presented at both meetings. Re- presentatives from the Mount Albert and the Poplar Banks Clubs were guests of the evening. The Presi- dent, Cameron Kennedy, on» behalf of the club expressed appreciation for their attendance and emphasized the benefits derived from such co-opera- tion. Unionville won from Poplar Blanks club in! the recent Drama Conâ€" test by a very small margin. “Have more than thou s‘howest Slpeak less than thou knowest, Lend less than thou owest, Ride more than thou goest, Learn more than thou trowst, Set less than thou throwst."
