The destructive acts recall com- plaints lodged with Vaughan council by district residents last year. claim- ing that acid had been poured over valuable trees in their gardens. Police were éalled in last Monday to investigate vandalism at Elder’s Mills which has taken the form of malicious damage to beautiful lawns at summer homes. Lawns fronting the home, of Mrs. Tunstead and her sister Miss Smith were discovered to have been sprayed with a liquid in an effort to damage the grass. Clon- stable Sam Ireland, of Kleinburg, who is investigating, said it had ap- parently been applied with a water- ing can swung in half moon circles. He thought the liquid to have been gasoline of some mixture of a burnâ€" iun‘g nature. “I intend to investigate it to the limit,” he said. Angered by the latest damage Eld- ers district residents have threart- ened to mount guard with shotguns. A number of our citizens formerly ‘North York boys, have received in- ]vitations‘io attend a reunion of the i Old Boys of North York. at Newmar- 1ket on Thursday, the first of Oc- jtober, the second day of the fair.

Police Investigate Vandalism At Elders the chair when a program was given and speeches delivered by Messrs. Walter Frisby, FOSter Hickson. Walt- er Eyer, George Williams and Thos. Johnson. Following these was the presentation of a beautiful leather suitcase and address by J. Cosgrove and Miss Williams. In an appreciat- ive reply, Mr. Nichols spoke in feel- ing manner of his rpleasant relations with the scholars and residents of the section during his time amongst them. Refreshments were served by the ladies. Mr. Nichols has been popular and very successful in his labors at No. 4 and the guests of the evening did not fail to express their regret at his departure. A large number of harvesters left Toronto on Tuesday for the western wheat fields. Up to date about 11,- 000 men have gone this season. and by the time the last excursion starts September 14, it is expected that fully 20,000 will have been contribut- ed by the eastern provinces to help in the harvest. On Thursday eve‘fing, August 13, a large number of friends met at School No. 4 to pay honor by word and act to Mr. L. L. Nichols. Mr. Nichols for three years has been teacher in that section but. has re- signed his work there to resume it at 5.8. No. 5. Mr There was a double funeral at the King City cemetery on Saturday. A few days before, the six-year-old son of Mr. J. Redmond near Laskay, died suddenly of appendicitis, and when it was learned by his grandmother that the boy could not recover it gave her such a shock that the old lady suddenly expired. The latter who was in her 70th year had been in poor health for several months before. From our Issue of August 2x0th, 1908 A furious stOrm visited Markham Village and surrounding country Sunday afternoon. Rain fell heavily for about 5 hours and considerable damage was done. The lightning was severe and many places were struck, among them the observatory of Mrs. Burk’s residence, the chimney of Mrs. Thomas’ house, and the resi- dence of Dr. Crowle. Dr. ‘Crowle was prostrated by the shock and a physician had to be sent for. The electric light system was disturbed so that Markham was in darkness Sunday night. The bridge at the south end of the Village was also swept away. In Ma‘ple Mr. H. Marsh is having a chopping mill built on his premises and H. Lines also one at the cream- ery.

They keep adding to it and are making it one of the ‘beauty spots of our rbeloved Yonge Street. I am always thrilled the whole way down from our home town to the city.

It gives us quite a thrill just to say itâ€"Ibut it really does live up to that highâ€"sounding: title! Yonge St. is a ‘beautiful highway in every way, in its traffic signs first of all, in its splendidly kept surface, its broad- lanes of traffic, all marked so plain and distinct, its well-kept homes all along the way. with their flower gar- dens. Some of the gardens are per- fectly wonderful, like Belholme, just south of Aurora. But every home, nearly, has flowers from early spring till the snow flies and, as I have said before, at Christmas they all :bloom afresh with gorgeous, brill- iantly lighted Christmas trees, shin- ing with their multi-colored lights all along the way, from Toronto right up to our home town. So you see we always have some- thing interesting to take our atten- tion the whole year! Never have I been b0red by a trip down Yonge St, even in the “trolly” days of the old-time Metropolitan, before motor car traffic became so prevalent, and if. in those days Yonge St. was interesting, how much more so it is now!
