' Removal of snow from Yonge St. in Richmond Hill not only gives work ,to the unemployed but it gives the town a well kept appearance which has inspired many favorable com- ments. Toronto might well take a lesson from Richmond Hill in this regard. City folks raise a terrible volume of complaint when highways condi- tions in the country are not up to But if there is anywhere worse streets go to drive than on Toronto these days we don’t want to there.

The ice was in excellent condition at the start. From our Issue of February 4, 1909 Stiver Brothers’ elevator at StouffJ ville was burned Wednesday morn-' ing of last week. The loss is about) $10,000. Insurance $3,300. The Public School is closed to-dvay and Slate blackboards are being in-’ stalled. The hockey match played on Thorn- hill ice on Monday evening between Richmond Hill and Thornhill was‘ won by Thornhill by a score of 3 to 1. The match was refereed by Mr. A. G. Savage. . The Ontario Railway Board recom- mends that Yonge Street, through the town of North Toronto, be double- tracked. The probability is that it will not be many years before Yonge Street will be double-tracked from the City to Richmond Hill. The annual banquet of the King and Vaughan Plowmen’s Association was held at the Inkerman House, Woodbridge, last Friday evening. Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather about 150 sat down to a sumptuous oyster supper, after which all repaired to the Orange Hall, Where an entertainment was furnished by Mr. Robert Wilson, hu-‘ morist; Miss Evelyn Davis, elocu- tionist, and Mr. Harold Rich, pianist. The various numbers were well rend-‘ ered, and the entertainers were forced to respond to several encores. Short and appropriate speeches were made at intervals by Mr. John Harris, reeve of Vaughan; Dr. P. D. McLean, Deputy-Reeve Patterson of Scarboro, Mr. Wm. Walking-ton and others. The chair was ably filled by Councillor Saigeon of Vaughan, who has been secretary of the association for many years past.

' City folks raise a terrible volume of complaint when highways condi- tions in the country are not up to par. But if there is anywhere worse to drive than on Toronto streets these days we don’t want to go there. Samuel Mannell, a Markham townâ€" ship land owne}; was taken to court charged with cutting trees without permission of the township. Mannel claimed the trees were on his. prop« erty and he could cut them if he wished. Magistrate Keith ordered him to cut no more without first obâ€" taining the consent of township of- ficials. The new Warden of Wellington County, Reeve Arnold Darroch, of Clifford, is proud of the financial pOSition of his village.

' Thor‘nhill Junior team entertained Richmond Hill fast Junior team on‘ Thursday night of last week, 'l‘hornâ€"‘ hill winning- 9â€"6. The score was. a tie at 4 all, 5 all, and 6 all, when the Thornhill boys put on an extra rate’ of speed and hurriedly run in 3 extra counters. Both teams are home’ grown boys and teams worthy of praise. Special mention is probably due to F. Grainger, Clarence Mylks' and A. Armstrong on Richmond Hill team, while Sliner, H00per, Johnson‘ and the two McDonald boys of Thorn- hill, are worthy of special note. Judging by reports of remarks by York County Councillors none are suffering from an inferiority com- plex. Weekly newspapers, commenting on the proposal to give Ontario an open Sunday, appear to be unani- mous in opposing such action, ob- serves the St. Marys Journal-Argus. Two Georgia darkeys were discuss- ing‘ the financial condition of the country. They didn’t agree. Dr. John F. Orr, a retired surgeon who was born at Kleinburg 81 years ago, passed away at his home in Chicago, 111., on Sunday, January 8. ‘ The attack that is being made on the Christian Sabbath as a more serious threat to Canada than Coma munism declares Editor Hale of the Orillia Packet and Times, and we are inclined to agree. It’s funny how peOple who know how difficult it is to run a home or business expect the churches to run on air. The Fort Erie Times thinks that a local minister, who charged that there were too many shirkers in local congregations on Sundays, hit the proverbial nail right on the headâ€"Forest Standard.
