Kirby of Maple, who headed the poll at the munici- pal election in Vaughan on Monday, was serenaded .by the Vell-ore band' on Tuesday night. After giving sev- eral choice selections, the musicians left for home, the treasurer of the band taking- with him a. paper on which was, printed the letter V. FORTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of January 5th, 1899 You can now send IettCrs to any part of the British Empire or the Unite<f States for 2 cents. This. seems to have been given by the Postmaster General as a New Year’s gift. ' Mr. Wm. Harrison who for forty years has held the position of $qu- erintendlent of the Methodist Sab- bath School has resigned. We doubt if there is another Sabbath School in the country that has worked un- der the same superintendent for so long a time without a break. Mr. Harrison has done faithful- and ef- ficient work for the school and he retires with honors. Firemem’s Oomoeirt A good house greeted, the Fire- men on New Year’s Night. The pro- . gram consisted of music by some of the best home talent and. a very laughable comedy entitled “The Dis-l trict Sch-001â€. The musical part of the program was furnished by Miss Edith Switzer, Messrs. A. J. Hume, -E. Mason, F. Redditt, H. Sanderson and the Mendelssohn Choristers. Some members of the Choristers sang solos and trios, and Messrs. Mason and Hume gave an excellent instrumental duet. Mr. John Sandi- erson was stage manager, and de- serves much of the credit for the suc- cessful organization and manage~ ment of the local company which gave such a pleasurable entertain- :ment. We cannot speak of 'the indi- vidual parts in full, as space will not permit, suffice it to say that every part was well taken. The first scene was hiring a teacher. The school committee was composed of Messrs. H. A. Nicholls, F. Johnston and E. Mason. The applicants were Mrs. Coombs, Miss B. Redditt, Miss Teefy and Mr. (Coombs. The latter, after a careful perusal of many yards of testimonials by the committee, was chosen; as teacher. He accordingly .directed the work of the school in ‘the next scene. The dinner scene was real good and provoked much applause. The last scene was ex- amination day, and in this scene the school was visited by the school com- mittee and by several parents. Dur- ing the play many local hits were made. Albert Glass acted Sim Dip- sey, and was the load boy of the. school. Mehitable Jones, taken by Miss M. Redd‘i'tt, was “sweet†on the teacher. Charlie Wiley was the in~ fant of 'the school. Mehitable Jones and' Sim Dipsey were prominent characters, and were both cleverly performed, but as there did not ap- pear to be a weak place in the cast, it would be. unfair for us to parti- cularize. If laughing makes people fat, the citizens of this Village must have put on several pounds of flesh on Monday night. The proceeds a- mounted to nearly $50.00. ‘ Village Elections 1 Alt the close of the poll at the election for four village councillors on Monday, the result was as fol-l lows: John Palmer 88, T. H. Trench? 84, Wm. Innes 70, David Hill 64" H. F. Hopper 64. The two last. n‘amedl being even Mr. Hopper re-l questedl Mr. Teefy, Returning Off-l icer, to break the tie in favor ofl Mr. Hill which was accordingly dlone. Master Charles Wiley, The Liberal Carrier B-oy, reports that his cusrto- mers were pleasietf with their New Year’s Calendar, and requests us to thank his friends for their liberality in assisting so materially in swellâ€" ing his bank account on the first day of the New Year. From our Issue of Dec. -31st, 1908 Mr. Wm. D. Scott has purchased the Ciolrville farm a short distance south of this Village. and will move there with his family in the near future. The officers» of the new County of York Curling League decided to play hamev and home matches. and will gave to the club making the highest number of points a pair of curling stones, and a pair of handles to the clqu winning second place.

If like seeks like, .as is often: said, there are many who ought to like suckers. John Wannamaker, founder of the John Wannameker s‘torve, Philadel- phia, was the first advertising genâ€" ius in the retail advertising field. In addition to the novelty of his ad- vertising, he kept persistently at it. He once said: “Continuous advertis~ ing, like continuous work, is the most effective. If there is any en- terprise in the -world- that a quitter should leave alone it is advertising. Advertising does not jerk; it pulls. 'It begins very gently at first, but the pull is steady.

The Town of Uxbridge has rescindn- ed‘ the by-l‘aw forcing all busvimess places to close every Wednesday af- bel‘noon throughout the year.

A young‘ Canadian woman married a German national at Kit- chener and thus became a German citizen. The young couple went last summer to visit the husband’s par- ents in Germany. At the German border on their return it was dis- covered that the Wife was aboth to become a mother. The husband was allowed“ to leave the country and it! back at work in Kitchener, but the young- woman must wait in Ger- many until the baby is born. If it is a boy the state will keep him in iGermany and make a soldier of him. If it should1 rbe a girl the mother and infant will be allowed] to leave Ger- many. ‘ BALING Hay & Straw Having taken over Moore Bros. baling business I am pre- pared to bale hay and straw on short notice.
