At present there are 350 in- candescent lights. Notwithstanding the wet weather the Methodist and Presbyterian churches had goodr patronage at their dinner and‘ tea on Victoria Day. The former received $90.85 as the proceeds of their anniversary; the latter has not yet reported. Although our late esteemed fellow citizen, Mr. W. J. Clark, had been in failing health for a long time his death last Sunday came as a shock to many friends and acquaintances. During his residenre here deceased made many warm friends, and his early death is much to be regretted. The funeral Wednesday afternoon was largely attended, many being present from a distance. After the burial a memorial sermon was preached by Rev. J. A. Grant. The sorrowing widow and two daughters have the profound sympathy in the loss of a kind and loving husband and father. Messrs. Cane & Sons Manufactur- ing Company, Newmarket, have r»â€" cently added a new drying kiln havâ€" ing a capacity of 4150* cords for pail and tub staves. Mr. W. G.

The Government will pay one-third of the total cost. York County is repre- sented by Reeve Pugsley of Rich- mond Hill, anti Mr. George S. Henry, Mr. Lionel Clark and Controller Ward will represent Toronto. The construction of the roads is expected to commence in a few days. From our Issue of May 25th, 1911 The barns and stables of Mr. Jacob Smith of Alrmira were struck by lightning Saturday night about mid- night and burned! to the ground. The loss will be about $3,500, aJnd' there was no insurance. Miss Helen Burnett andI Miss Jean Topper were hostess-es off 3 china shower at the latter’s home at Elgin Mills, in. honor of Miss Mable Smith, whose marriage takes ,place in June. A very pleasant evening was spent in music and! games. Refreshments were served by Mr. Frank Burnett, Mr. W. Pratt, Mr. H. Burnett and Mr. George Topper. Seldom do people see such a fine display of buggies and? wagons from 'one firm as was at the Fair from Trench’s Carriage Works on Finday. The exhibit comprised a mirkado with canopy top, for pony; 8 standard covered buggies, corning body or piano box; a road wagon finished in the natural wood; a road cart, a con- cord road‘ wagon, a platform spling wagon and a lumber wagon St. Mary’s R.C.

The bride was attended) by Miss‘ Gertrude Lynett and Mr. Wm. ‘COsgrove sup- ported the groom. Aiter the cere- mony was concluded the young cou- ple left the church accompanied by the best wishes of many friends for their future happiness. They will reside on Mr. Kaiser’s farm a short distance north of Temperanoevilie. From our Issue of May 27th, 1926 The weatherman provided ideal weather for Victoria Day. Mr. Milton Stong of Wil‘lmvd'aic was again a winner at the Fair on the 24th with his two standard bred-s by Altoneer. Dick Fyfe won first among road‘ster stallions, and Minnie Adta got first place in the two year old gelding or filIIy class. Neither of the above has ever been beaten in a show ring. Mr. F.

FORTY YEARS AGO From our Issue of May 30th, 1901 FIFTEEN YEARS AGO THIRTY YEARS AGO WAY BACK IN LIBERAL FILES ME mmml RICHJWOND HILL, ONTARIO THURSDAY, MAY 29th, 1941. FAIIR. 1926 The seventy-seventh annual fair of the Richmond ‘Hill Agricultural Soâ€" ciety was held on Monday, May 24 and will go down in history as one of the most successful days in the life of the organization. The weather was ideal with a bright sun and a cool breeze and it is estimated that there were well over three thousanu people on the grounds. The entrv list was larger than the year before and the quality of e'xhilbits with above the average in every depart- .nent The showing of live stock was especially good. The?) was keen competiticr. in the lismy horse classes and the quality of the en- tries wa= the 'sulbjem of very favor- able comment by D. D. Gray of Ult- awa who did the Judging. Short- horn Jer'=-.ys and Holsh-ins were re- presented in the cattle classes wiih the dairy breed predominating. Prof. Bell of Kemptville who judged the cattle spoke very high'y of the type and quality of the herds represent- ed. The n.ain building was an at- traction wl‘r'ch every visitor to the fair enjoyrd. There was a large entry list 01 home bzilx’rva and fancy work. The judging of the ladies’ work was done by Miss M. Gal’braith of the Department of Agriculture, who gave complete satisfactiOn and was assisted by Mrs. W. Hall and Miss Monkman of Richmond Hill. There was a splendid Motor Exhibit with the local dealers and the vari- ous makes well represented. W. S. Smith, local Ford agent, had all this year’s Ford) models, seven cars in all as well as a Ford'son tractor complete with plow. W. G. Bald'ock Ltd. had all the Chevrolet models and a nice Oakland) sedan. David Hill had on exhibit a McLaughlin five passenger sedlan, a Star Six, five passenger sedan as well as a Star chassis and call). The visitors all took good note of the exhibits and the dealers report many good) pros- pects. Richmond' Tailors had a very cred- itable display in the main building. Choice suitings and an up-to-date finished model were shown and‘ were subject of much favorable comment by visitors to the Fair. The girls’ sofflball game was a good attrac- tion this year. The concert at night was not . very largely attended. Possibly the cool! weather but sev- eral of the younger set have sug- gested a dance instead of a concert. The oldest man on the fair grounds on Monday was Mr. F. Button, of Thornhill, who is in his ninety-third year and who has the proud record of having attended the Richmond Hill fair seventy-six years out of the seventy-seven which it has been in existence. This we claim is a world record for continuous attendance at any fair. Mr. Button is a veteran of the Fenian Raid and is still act- ive and bright and‘ enjoyed the fair this year as much as he did seventy- seven years ago. In conversation with the Lilberal Mr. Button said that he could not just remember how it came about that he missed at- tending the fair one year but he thought he must have been siok as nothing short of that could‘ keep him away. The young- people of St. Mary’s Anglican Church met at the rectory on Wednesday night and re-organâ€" ized‘ the tennis club for the coming year. The following officers were elected: President, Allan Armstrong; Vice-President, Margaret Battersby; Secretary-Treasurer, Allan White; execurtive, Frank Braylbon, Marion Carter and other officers. Soanes, Rector. The large congre- gation joined heartily in the Whit Sunday hymns anti service. The new oak furniture lecturer, prayer desk, etc. were used! for the first time and added much. to the sacredness of the service.

THE MILL Phones: 139 Britain ordered 180,000 cases 01 eggs from Canada to be shipped in the month of May. There are 30 dlozen to a case, and in Canada there are 46,763,900 hens to produce the egg-s. If each hen does a little extra effort, Canada should be able to de- liver the eggs. If some hens are like some people and prefer “talk- ing” to working in the war effort, the war order may fall short. Some people predict a great deal of unemployment after the war. There is no economic reason why such shouldl (be the case. The needs of the countries of the world' will be so great everyone shouldI lbe ’busy for years to come supplying those needs. The immediate job though is to win the war. A writer of a letter we received this week said “this thing of Hitle: running; rough-shod over the coun- tries of Europe couldn’t have hap- p-e‘nedl fifty years ago. Those were days when the threat of injustice would have aroused the entire Chris- tian world. Now ,people are so preâ€" occupied with social. security and' the high standard of living that they care not a hoot what happens so long as they save their own skins." | When he made his ringing appeal to the youth of Canada to enlist Col. Railston, the Minister of De- fence did not say it would [be the last chance for voluntary enlistment. It is undoubtedfiy true however that if the present recruiting drive fails in its objective, compulsory service wil=1 be introduced. ' Thirteen hundire'd healthy, happy' Canadians will die in traffic acci- dents in Canada within the next twelve months, Traffic accidents .take a toll in Canada equal to the wiping out of an entire town every year, figures reveal. Saturday is the most dangerous day of the week, and! the second! most dangerous is Friday. According to records twice as many acuidents happen on Sat- urday as on Sunday.

No one should be permitted to sell tickets any place where they are not fairly well acquainted. When a stranger approaches you to buy a ticket on a draw that is to take place in a distant town or village how are you to know that is a genu- ine war charity propositfion or a fake. Our advice to our readers is to not buy tickets from people you have never seen before.
