RICHMOND HILL, ()N'l'ARiO. ‘LHURSDAY, DECEMBER 8th, 1938. A pleasant time was spent at the Necktie Social in connection with the Epworth League Monday evening. Some of the lunch boxes brought fancy prices under the able manage- ment of Auctioneer Nicholls, and the purchasers said they were. worth the money. At a meeting of the Curling Club held on Monday evening, skips were appointed for the Slater trophy con- test, the Smith medal contest, and also for the Ontario Tankard compe- tition. The annual shoot and merting of the Victoria Square Rifle Club was 'held on the afternoon and evening. iof December 3rd. The day being ifavorable some very creditable scores fwere made. After the usual shoot was over the club adjourned to Mr. Meek’s sitting-room for the election of officers and general business of the club. The president, Mr. W. Scott, was in the chair. The officers elected were: President, W. Scott; Viceâ€"President, 'Thomas Reid; Sec.- Treas., Louis G. Stoutenburg‘h; Com- mittee of Management, Messrs. T. Reid, C. P. Reid, Jas. Lever, Geo. Brown, W. R. Capell and L. Stout- enburgh. It was decided by the meeting to have an oyster supper, to be competed for by teams chosen by the president and the Vice-presi- dent, match to be held. on the after- ‘ noon of Friday, December 16th; oys- i ters to be served in the evening by] Mr. Wm. Meek. Mr. John Cameron, Postmaster at London, and formerly editor of The Globe died very suddenly Tuesday. Deceased was born in Markham. A committee to take subscriptions to lessen the proposed grant which the Village Council will be asked to give towards the purchase of a piece of land on which to erect a bank and other buildings, has been appointed, but as yet a proper can- vass has not been made. The road grader answered a good purpose along the Metropolitan Rai'- way on Monday and Tuesday. The weight of the snow was so heavy that three good‘ teams were necess- ary to draw the grader. Two hund- red men were employed. The Richmond Hill Hockey Club has re-organized for the season “dth the following officers: Hon. Pres, Reeve Savage; Captain, W. Clifford; SecaTreas” VV. Trcnch; Conn of Man., A. Savage, J. Wright, C. Ell- ston. The committee was given in- structions to interview the council at their next meeting for the pur- pose of securing the rink for the season. Thisis but the secondrsea- son the Richmond Hill Club has been in existence and if the playing- of last season be taken as a sanufle of ‘what pracfice can do the refidents of Richmond Hill may look forward to seeing the town again draped in laurels of the brightest hue. This season the boys hope to retain their past honor and thkets adnntfing to an rnatched Vvfll be issued in a fevv days. A large number of people attend- ed Mr .Isaac Dollery's auction sale of farm stock and implements on Tuestay. The bid-ding was brisk and everything passed off harmoniously and satisfactorily. After the sale the auctioneers came to the Village, when Mr. Saigeon introduced his partner, Mr. J. K. McErwen, to a number of the former’s friends in this section of country. Some of our citizens who cannot bear to be idle complained greatly on Monday because their daily pap- ers did not come to hand, and they therefore had nothing to do all the day. It never once entered their mind that there were banks of snow to shovel outside. Sunday night’s snowfall in Toronto and vicinity was the heaviest on re- cord. On Monday 1000 men were at work in the city clearing it away. The first Metropolitan car reached Richmond Hill after the storm at 5 pm. Tuesday.

And there is synflbol'zed the funda- mental d'ifference in: conception be- tween 3 Democracy and a Diet-Itor- svhi‘p. “You mean to say,” he ejaculated, “that this man is actually appointed to cippose the Government?” “Yes, he is.” “An‘a he is paid for it?” “Certainly.” “Paid‘ for it!” exclaimed the Ger- man, “Mein Goth, in mv country we would shoot him.” The story is going the rounds of the German traveller who was as- tounded to find: that in Canada there is such an officer of the Crown as the Lead-er of the Opposition. A chap was arraigned for assault and battery and brought before the judge. Judge: “What is your name, occupation, and What are you charg- ed with?" Prisoner: My name is Sparks, I am an electrician, and I am charged with battery.” Judge (after recovering his equilibrium): “Officer, put this man in a dry cell." More and more people are find» ing out every year that a subscrip- tion to The Liberal is a gift that is highly appreciated by son, daugh- ter or friend at a distance. It is a fifty-two time reminder of the thoughtful giver at. home. An atâ€" tractive gift announcement card hear- ing your personal greetings to reach your friend by Christmas Day is sup- plied with each Gift, Subscription. A certain woman res’dent of Kit- chener, Ont., irritated by “Heil Hit- ler” put at the top of each page of letters sent by a friend in Germany, has devised what she hopes is a coun- ter-irritant to the Nazis. At the top of each page in her own letters, she puts “God Save the King.” in the world to~day. It is such a confused and chaotic picture it is almost impossible to believe that it was only 20 years ago that the Great War came to an (nd and democracy was triumphant. f‘Can you tell me where all the pins go to?" “Well, it’s hard to say. You see they’re pointed in one direction and headed 2n another." As usual there were some upsets and surprises in Monday’s municipal elections. With Reeve McDonald of New To- ronto and Reeve Dr. Dales of New- market absent, County Council ses- sions will likely be quieter and shorter.
