THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of June 24th. 1909 Mr. Clarkson McDonald has gone to Bradford as ledgerâ€"keeper in the Standard Bank. Mr. Harland Palmer has entered the bank here as junior clerk, and Mr. Lloyd Hill has gone to Woodbridge to take a similar position in the Standard Bank. North-end citizens are thankful to ,the Metropolitan management for having replaced the “stop” opposite Hill’s bakery, in compliance with the request of the petitioners. It is true the sign-board is difficult to see, but those who look c105er will find it on a pole up among the branches. Mr. F. ‘T. Graham and: Mr. G. Elâ€" more Reaman who left here a month ago for the Canadian West were not long in getting busy. The former has been stationed by the Alberta Methodist Conference at Hastings, Coulee, near Strathcona. and the lat- ter has taken a school for the sump mer months. A meeting of the Provisional Di- rectors of the Vaughan Telephone Company was held at Vellore last Thursday when final arrangements were made for applying for the charter. The prospects are that the erection of poles and the stringing of wires, {will be commenced in a short time. Regarding a central of- fice at Richnio-ndl Hill. to connflrtl Markham and Vaughan townships, a proposition was made by Mr. A. D. Bruce, president of the Bethesda and Stouffville Telephone CO. was accepted. Mr. Bruce, on behalf of his company, made two propositions: First. to build to Richmond Hill, establish a central Office. develop the town and make connection with the Vaughan Company. the latter company to give the other company switching accommodation at their switchboard at 3c. per phone. The latter proposition was accepted by the Vaughan Company. FIFTEEN YEARS AGO From our Issue Of June 26th, 192-1 Richmond Hill Band has been en- gaged for the Field Day to be held at Lake Marie Farm, King City, the country home of Sir Henry Pellatt. lQit‘izens of Richmond Hill were honored and entertained Saturday afternoon, when the West Toronto Salvation Army Silver Band gave a delightful musical programme on the Public School lawn. The players were neatly uniformed. and the. sweetest music came from their well~polished instruments. Marriages WATSONâ€"MOYNIHAN Methodist Parsonage. Richmond Hill on Wednesday, June 18th. by Rev.

At a university, a certain student is quite plump; and after a parti- cularly unsuccessful recitation, the professor said: “Alas, sir, you are better fed than taught.” “That’s right, Professor,” sighed the youth, subsiding heavily, “you teach meâ€"I feed myself.” Said Dr. Lein-bach, a speaker at the Presbyterial General Assembly: “Giblbons gives as the five reasons for the fall of the Roman Empire, the prevalence of divorce and home instability, an increased dependency upon the state for aid, an increasmg love of mad pleasures, an Increase in the costs of armaments while the moral fabric was being weakened, and a decay in religion.” No wonder Dr. Leinbach thought it sounded like today. A Canadian who visited the Can- adian exhibit at the British Indus- tries fair tells how he saw com on the cob. He asked the blond lady in the exhibit anout price and- rc- ceived the following illumination an- swer: “Hit’s one and six, Sir. Hit's tinned maize, Sir. Hit’s some kind of cattle food, but humans is heat- ing hit now, Sir.” “By God’s grace yours may yet be the example which all the world will follow,” said King George referring to the fact that Canada and the United States have lived at peace for 125 years, and have never in all that time fortified themselves a- gainst each other, During the intense heat last Wed- nesday afternoon, sections of the concrete pavement on the provincial highway between Mild‘may and Clifâ€" ford blew up. The burning rays Of the sun caused so much expansion that the surface blew up with a re- port so loud and terrifying that Adam Seip’s team nearly ran away when the break occurred at a point half a mile north of Clifford.
