THIRTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of April 14th, 1910 Many of the farmers in this section are through with their spring seedâ€" ing. The land never worked better, and in most cases fall wheat looks well. Mr. H. A. Nicholls, real estate agent, reports the following- trans- fers during the week in Richmond Hill: The house and lot on Church Street belonging to Mr. Matthew Patton, to Mr. William Pratt of Penetanguishene, who will move here with his family in a few weeks; and the vacant lot on Centre St. East owned by Mr. William Sheppard, to Mr. Chas. Hickson, who contem- plates putting thereon a horuse for himself during the year. Some time ago the Canadian Cour- ier, a weekly paper published in To- ronto, stated that Hon. Adam Brown of Hamilton is the oldest postmaster in Canada. Last week The Courier admits its error and states What cannot be disputed that our esteem- ed citizen, Mr. Matthew Teefy, is four years older than Mr. Brown. Mr. Teefy will be 88 years of age next Monday, and- has been post- master here continuously since 1850, a period of 60 years. Mr. Teefy also enjoys the distinction of being the oldest Justice of Peace in York County, and his many friends are pleased to know he is enjoying- the best of health. The funeral of the late James Newton, senior member of the New- ton Tanning COmpany, Elgin Mills, was very largely attended last Sat- urday afternoon. Many old friends from Toronto, Aurora, Newmarket and: other places, who had long been associated with him socially, and a- long business lines, were present to show their last mark of respect to long business lines, were present to show their last mark of respect to one who had been well known and highly esteemed for many years. Two Nelson Shields, in the name of Rt. Hon. Lord Strathcona, acting through the British and Foreign 'Sailâ€" ors’ Society, have been received by the Richmond Hill Board of Educa- tion. One is for the High School, the other for the Public School. The historic copper of which they are made came from Lord Nelson's own' flag ships “Victory” and “Foudroy- ant”, and is stampel “E.R.VII” by Royal Command. Every educational institution in Canada will be pleased 'to receive such a unique historical trophy from the High Commissioner of Canada. Help win the war, buy Canadian buy British. Richmond Hill along with many other Ontario municipalities will adopt daylight saving time Sunday, April 28th. Mrs. Margaret Buck of Kleinburg was arrested by Serg't. S. A. Barraâ€" clough of York County Police last Saturday on a serious charge. “Walter, will the orchestra play anything requested?" “Oh, yes, sir." “Well, ask ’em to play bridge.” Reeve James Rennie of Markham township was reâ€"elected president of the Ontario Conservation and Reforâ€" estation Association Zone 3 at the annual meeting held in Barrie last Week. The district includes Grey, Bruce, Dufferin, Wellington, Simcoe, Peel and York Counties. General News & Views We are pleased to report that James H. Kirby of North Toronto, father of Hon. Harold J. Kirby, On- tario Minister of Health, and well known throughout this district as a former resident of Vaughan Town- ship who has been seriously ill has sufficiently recovered to permit his removal to his home. His many friends join with The Liberal in ex- tending best wishes for his speedy and complete recovery. In presenting the annual report of the local Board of Health, H. .S. Sparks, chairman, urged close in- spection of milk sold at the North York Market, before North York Council this week. Some farmers were not cargying out the require- ments of the law, and it may be necessary to take drastic action, he told Council. The report, which was adopted, stated that during last year the municipality was entirely free 0f infantile paralysis, smallpox and diphtheria. There were 503 cases of communicable diseases reported. . For the British Empire the pres-‘ ent war is a crusade in defence of Christianity, Rev. Frank Mesley de- clared at special Vimy Day ceremon- ies staged by North Yonk Veterans’ association last Sunday. For the first time since the association was organized a church parade was held in the city to» Parliament *Street Unit- ed church. Air cadets, York County Veterans Trumpet Iband, ladies’ auxiliaries joined in the parade, which formed up in Allan Gardens. A. W. Skelly, president of the North York associ- ation, was commander of the parade. Capt.
