The first train of cars ever run in Canada was between Toronto and Aurora on the Northern Railway. This Was on the 16th of May, 1853. The rolling stock consisted of an engineâ€"The Lady Elginâ€"a box car and passenger car, and‘ the conduct- or was Mr. John Harvie. An article appeared in a city paper some years ago stated that “at all points along the road 'he people turned out to witness the strange sight of a rail- way train drawn by steam. and there was great rejoicing at Aurora when the train drew up there.“ But great as was the enthusiasm of the people in those towns on this memorable occasion 46 years ago, it scarcely could have been greater than on Sat- urday last when the Metropolitan trolley car made its first trip to our sister towns of the north. All .work for the time was suSp-ended, so anxi- ous were the people along the route to witness the trolley make its ini- tial trip. The cars started to make regular trips on Monday, the 15th of August, and five trips are made each way over the line every day. A car for the northern terminus left the CPR. crossing, Toronto, on Monday morning with a number -f passenger, Manager Moy‘es being on board with others. .A stop was made at the new power house at Bond’s Lake, and after those who wished» viewed the machinery the-trip was continued. Aurora, 4 miles funther north, was made in 12 miinutes, and Newmarket was reached in another quarter of an hour. The return trip was fast, the distance between Newlmarket and Toronto, about 25 miles, being covered in an hour and a quarter. The fare for'the round trip from Newrmarket to the city is $1.25, and from Aurora $1.10. There are 80 permanent buildings and over 300 temporary structures at Fair time in the Exhibition City, Toronto. The value of the Canadâ€" Iian National Exhibition plant is placed at 811,000,000. made up of $6,000,000 in buildings and $5,000,- "0-00 in grounds. Aurora will celebrate its Wellingâ€" ton Street pavement Friday evenâ€" ing, by games, races. tug-ofâ€"war, and dancing.

When the whole case is considered, we have just cause for congratulation. In Forms 11, III and IV nearly 80 per cent passed. The difficulties for preparing the candiâ€" dates this year were far greater than other years from the large at- tendance in Form I. T is fact made it necessary for 58 pu )ils to have sieats'in one room. The class was thus twice as large as one teacher should be required to handle. Con- siderivng‘ that we have only two teaâ€" chers to do the work, our school has done nobly.

From our Issue of August 12, 19-09 Richmond Hill is getting more like a. city every day. We now sprinkle our streets with crude petroleum oil, instead of ordinary well water used 'by small towns such as Aurora and Newmarket. From our issue The hotel, 5' buildings at Br The -Village COuncil this week has ' given an application of road oil to Yonge street between the Pest Off- ice crossing and the crossing oppoâ€" site the Metropolitan Waiting Room. This is merely an experiment to see if the oil will keep the dust down Bit a reasonable cost. Councillor San- derson, who did the sprinkling, says that the cost for each application could probably be met :by a frontage tax of two cents a foot on preperty owners on each side of the street. The following memlbers were preâ€" sent at a meeting of the Board of Education Wed. evening: D. Hill '(chairman), A. Newton, G. McDonJ ald, F. McConaghy, G. Cowie, J. N. Boyle, G. Redditt, R. Mackie. After a discussion as to what would be a fair proportion for the Village, and the outside parts of Vaughan and Markham, to pay for public school maintenance, it was moved by Mr. Boyle. seconded by Mr. McDonald, that this board recommend that the taxes for Village and outside parts be 60 and 40 per cent respectively. The resolution was carried unani- mously. A resolution was also pass- iCharlie Hume were ushers.

Farmers, and those in charge of threshing outfits, are again reminded that the utmost care should be exercised to prevent fire. Last year ~there were several fires, caused by threshing machines, resulting in thousands of dollars damage, and a large propor- tion of them were attributed to care- lessness. If this loss is to be cutâ€" tailed, it/will have to be done by 'those engaged in operating these machines. As they stand’ upon the threshold of another year, let us hope that each and every operator will resolve to exercise the utmost care in this regardâ€"Stirling News- 1n Argus mxxv‘ ‘(0 Days of Thrills and Fun IN MONTREAL IN WASHINGTON 58.50 $23.05 51 0.00 $11.50 hie» Include : Hohlkoom - Meals - Entomlnmono Agricultural Society: W.
