Mintern is painting and papering his brick cottage oppOSite Sanderson’s drug store for Mr. Jacob Eyer and family who will remove here next week. There was an exciting time at the hockey match last Thursday night. The Central Business College boys played a very good game, but they could not stand the combination put up by the home team. The score at the close as given by the referee was 11 to 1 in favor of Richmond Hill. l The hockey club were entertained by the Epworth League last Monday levening. After skating at the rink till 9.30 refreshments were served ;in the school-room of the Methodist lchurch. Messrs. Arm Savage and 'Harry Sanderson acknowledged the kindly remembrance of the League, and Rev. A. P. Brace and E. H. Toye lresponded in short speeches. A fea- lt‘ure of the early part of the even- ing was a' hockey match between “Montreal” and “Ottawa”, the form- !er winning by 8 to 5. ‘The Executive Committee of the Agricultural Society met yesterday afternoon and revised the prize list for the 24th of May Fair. A resolu- tion was carried recommending that $100 be added to the prize list in the livestock classes. Another of the curling medal side be added to the prize list in the livestock classes. Another of the curling medal matches was played on Tuesday‘ ev- ening when F. Sims’ rink defeated M. Boyle’s rink by a score of 20 to 11. There is one more match yet to be played between Mr. Sander- son and Mr. Sims. Mr. Hopkins of the Devonshire Dairy, Toronto, is making prepara- tions for enlarging his creamery' building back of the Palmer House, when the engine and boiler which have already arrived, will be placed in position. (M; Boyle and his assistants, D. Boyle, G. McDonald and A. J. Hume, are naturally elated in their curling victory over W. H. Pugsley, F. Mc- Conaghy, A. Moodie and F. Sims. The result was particularly gratify- ing from the fact that the latter rink contained worthy representatives from England, Ireland, Scotland and THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of March 11th, 1909 Canada Mr. and Mrs. Charles Norman, residents of Aurora for a numlber of years, have removed to Maple, where Mr. Norman is establishing a bakery. He has disposed of his house and property in Aurora to Messrs. Strassler & 100., undertakers. Mr. and Mrs. Norman’s many friends wish them success and prosperity in the thriving little Village where they will make their home. The spacious rink was crowded with skaters and spectators last ev- ening, the occasion being a fancy dress carnival. Many of the cos- tumes worn were charming beyond Words, and the latest shapes and de- vices in feminine headgear and other articles of dress simply bewildered Messrs. Nicholls, Allen and Trench, to whom was assigned the pleasant though somewhat difficult duty of awarding the prizes in the different classes. A detachment of the New- market Band gave a good program of music, and altogether the cam- ival was a great success andwas thoroughly enjoyed. The Town of Aurora is making application to the Legislature for an act to consolidate the floating debt of $3,600, to borrow $1,200 for the purpose of sinking an artesian well, and to lease to the Columba Powder Company for a term of ten years certain lands as a site for a manuâ€" factory, and for the exermp-tiOn of the property of the company from taxes for a period of 21 years, also to give them a supply of water free of charge. The debenture indebtedâ€" ness of the town is $32,505.88. Two rinks of the Newmarket Curl- ing Club came down Tuesday even- ing and gave our players another game. The home rinks won by 12 points. The followmg is a summary: Richmond Hill, Mr. Barker, skip, 19; Mr. Nicholls, skip. 12; Newmarket, Mr. McCaffrey, skip, 11; Mr. Triv- ett, skip, 10. FIF’I‘EEN YEARS AGO From our Issue of March 13th, 1924. Mr. and Mrs. A. Martin celebrated the 50th anniversary of their mar« riage at their home on Richmond Street. on Wednesday. Many citi- zens called during the afternoon and evening and offered congratulations. After a splendid fowl dinner congra- WAY BACK IN LIBERAL FILES W9 Wmmlh tuiatory speeches were made by Rev. N. Wellwood and Rev. H. Warren, Messrs. G. Reaman and T. F. Mcâ€" Mahon. Mr. Martin responded, ex- pressing on behalf of his wife and himself, his thanks for the kind ex- pressions and good wishes. Rinks skipped by J. S. McNair, J. Wigmore and G. Moodie went to North Toronto, Saturday, and de- feated rinks in that City by six points. Matches were played after- noon and evening. Winter sports seem to have come to an end for this season, as it is some days now since we have had any wintry-like weather. The crows and robins have made their appear- ance in numbers, and they do say that the sap has commenced to run. The marriage of Mr. Ross An- derson, of Ed‘geley, and Miss Jessie Rumble, youngest daughter of Mr. G. H. Rumble and the late Mrs. Rumble took place on Wednesday of last week at the Maple Parsonage, Rev. R. K. Lambert officiating. Af- The Young People's Society of the Presbyterian Church provided a mest‘ enjoyable entertainment for the com- ‘ munity on Wednesday of last week,‘ when they presented the amusing play, “The Minister’s Bride." The School Room was crowded toithe doors, and the large audience must have been an inspiration to the young actors, who filled their varied roles in a most creditable manner. The caste of characters was as follows: The minister, Allan MacNabb; the bride, Miss Madeline Cooper; Mrs. Charity, Ruby Forrester; Mrs. Sharpe, Zilpah Topper; Mrs. Crabbe, Frances Batty; Mrs. Seegood, Fran- ces Drury;Mrs. Betterdays, Chrissie Stein; Molly Charity, Rose Robin- son; Miranda Meek, Agnes Sims; Penelope Patience, Margaret Ireland; Janet Heathers, Margaret Stirling; ‘Janet Heather, Margaret Stirling; lJones, Alberta Hewison; Miss Smilâ€" ey, Audrey Tuck; Joe Crabbe, Jack Innes; Robert Spence, Jim Gowie; Amos Right, Jim McLean; Jim Cur- tis, Robert Marsh; Emzphriam Snel- g'rove, Bert Grant. The young peo- ,ple repeated the play at Thornhill ter the ceremony the young cOuple left for Minesing and other points north, and on their return will re- side in Maple.

GALT , William James Galt of Purpleville died suddenly on Saturday, March 11th while returning from a visit with friends. Mr. Galt is survived by his two sons and one daughter, Mrs. George Tutt, of Thornhill, Wal- ter and Clarence. STRANGE, BUT TRUE Tuesday a citizen entered a Broad- way bootshop- on some business. The conversation veered to icy streets and bad walking. The shopkeeper pro- duced a pair of creepers and said they made walking safe and' easy no matter how icy the street might be. The citizen declined to buy, stating that he walked carefully and had never fallen. Then he went out and had only gone a few yards when he fell and in the fall smashed one of his front teeth.â€"Orangeville Banner.

Law- rence E. Rose, Toronto, caught it when fishing through the ice on Cooke’s Bay, near Keswick. As the hole in the ice through which Rose was fishing was only a foot in dia- meter, he had his hands full hauling out the pike, which put up a battle royal. - Phone 12 GENERAL NEWS AND VIEWS Street and No., or R3.
