We are therefore asking all customers to clear the paths between the street and their cellars, otherwise not to expect the coal to be delivered until condi- tions are altered.

Previous to 1942 most of the war work done by Empire Lodge had been for H.M. Trawler Teroma to which were forwarded several boxes of knitted: articles and other com- forts such as razor blades, soap, etc. Donations were also made to the 4 mobile canteens and 1 ambulance donated by the various branches of the Orange order; to the appeal for blankets in 19411, to the Orange War Relief Fund and the regular donaâ€" tions to the wool fund of the RM. Association. The Euchre committees in the two Lodges have raised in the past 3 years over $100.00 for the B.W.V. Fund and the use of the lodlge room and dishes has been given several local organizations for functions to raise money for war work. An old-fashioned hOme is the one which ha.sn"t a card table in it. as three quilts being forwarded to the British Isles. During 1942, besides their usual benevolent work, the officers and members of, Empire Lodge No. 894 L.O.B.A. did a considerable amount of war work. Thirty-two boxes were sent to the members or their sons, of Victoria L.0.\L., also husbands, sons and brothers of members of Empire L.O.B.A. who are serving in the armed forces abroad or in Canâ€" ada. Socks were also to be had for the asking by any member who was sending a parcel to members of their family. Regular monthly donations were made to the Overseas Tobacco League and the Past Mistresses As- sociation in Toronto which also gives out knitted comforts to those needing them. A ditty bag was fill- ed at Christmas time for the Navy League and a collection: taken for the B.W.V. Children’s. Xmas Fund. A donation of $5.00 was sent to the Chinese Relief and a large box of comforts for Bomb Victims as well for the transaction of General Business Dated at Maple this 28th day of January, 1943.

Rowland, who urged that sllch provisions in- 'cluded in the Ontario Municipal Act be given unanimous oon-s’idera-‘ tion. SUGGEST SALARIES FOR COUNCILLORS A by-law committee of Aurora Town Council this. week recommend- ed that council members be remun- erated for municipal services so that “a litt‘e more interest could‘ be in- 'ves.ted in the administration of town 'affaira." It’s possible to make over many things, but the hardest job is to make over a man. A member of the York County Counc1l, now in session, suggests that a bomb might effectively term inate the existence of this body. ’D‘bis method would be rather drastic â€" but it is pretty generally conceded. that this country is over-governed. County Council might well pass out of the scene along with the Senate â€"and some wouldI say with the pro- vincial legislatures as wellsâ€"Markâ€" ham Sun. Besides a number of unidentified pieces, and many fragments of pott- ery containing interesting designs, Miss Mason has now seventy almost perfect specimens which include ar- row heads for both hunting and fishing, skinning knives, .pipes, axes and spearheads, and an interesting soapstone charm. This has a hole near the top, and it is believed- that it was worn by a medicine man to ward off “evil spirits”. She has promised her collection to the Royal Ontario Museum in To- ronto but is hoping to add a few more pieces before turning it over. Monday, Feb. During her explorations she has come across pipes, axes and spear- heads in a gravel pit; the remains of a tribal fireâ€"charcoal and animal bonesâ€"three feet below the ground, and several piles of flint where ar- row maklers may have been at work. Flint could not be obtained in that locality and it is known that the Indians carried it all the way from Lake Superior. Each tribe had: its own peculiar pattern in arrow heads and its own arrow makerâ€"a craft which was handed down from father to son. Miss Mason explained that a complete arrow consisted of a carefully made flint head inserted into the end of a split basswood stick and bound tightly 1n place with a wet deer thong or tendon. It was then rendered more deadly by dippy ing it into a poisonous concoction of weeds and roots. As the soil is light and sandy a shifting wind sometimes surprisingly uncovers objects which have been buried for years. Frost also is an unexpected aid for it forces things up through the sand. Miss Mason’s parents came from Norfolk county and she often reâ€" turns there to visit. {nis particular section of Ontario, bordering on Lake Erie, was once a favourite camping ground for numerous Indian tribes, and. especially the Iroquois. Miss Mason had always known that me- mentos of Indian civilization were to be found in the district and after she had picked up one or two during her rambles, she decided to make a more systematic search. Since then she has covened many miles on foot and has been well rewarded for her efforts. Vaughan Council Miss Clara Mason of Richmond Hill is one of those fortunate young women who possess several absorb- ing interests, but perhaps her most unusual hobby is collecting Indian relics.

And may I take this opportunity to wish you all a mOSt pleasant year in 1943. Will you kindly express to the Anglican Soldiers Aid of St. Mary’s ‘Church, Richmond Hill, .my great appreciation of the very nice Xmas parcel which arrived on board' short- ly before welput to sea. That was some time ago. Since then I’ve been tempted on different occasions to sample some of the very nice con- tents but, for the most part, have refrained. However Christmas is all but hereâ€"just one more shipping day and we’re in mid ocean. Dear Miss Scrivener: I was very pleased to receive to- day, your most welcome Christmas box from St. Mary’s Church. Every- thing in the parcel arrived in good condition which speaks well for those who packed it, because the outer wrap-ping showed signs of a rough passage. There isn’t an item in the long list that isn’t very use- ful and appreciated by every soldier here, as most of them are un-obtain- able altogether and a few very diffi- cult to obtain. I appreciate parti- cularly your thoughtfulness in re- membering me at this Season of the year when everyone naturally is thinking of home. My sincere thanks to the Soldiers’ Aid, especially those more active in the necessary work involved in pre- paring and sending this complete and) generous Christmas parcel. Sincerely yours, Herbert Masonv. Anglican Soldiers’ Aid, St. Mary’s Church, Richmond Hill. B8630, Sgt. Barrow, 69 Tank Transporter Coy., R.C.A»S.C., Can. Army Overseas. Just a few days ago I received your most welcome parcel. You will never know how much it is appre~ ciated, as it is impossible to obtain the luxuries you sent me. The boys are saving their parcels and we in- tend to have a real treat on Christ- mas. It is wonderful to see the ex- pression of delight on. the boys’ faces when- they receive parcels such as you sent me. I am enjoying being over here apart from the weather and hope to be back In Canada, but not before we have completed our task. I and: the boys shall think of the wonderful work of your organ- ization as we share our Christmas Box on- December 25th. Again thank- ing you for your kindness and wish- ing you continued success, I remain, Yours respectfully, Harry E. Barrow. We should all like to be home, particularly at this holiday season», but they are making things as nice as possible with a turkey dinner and all the trimmings. . Thanking you once again for your very acceptable and: well selected parcel, I am, Richmond Hill RedJ Cross Dear Members:â€" One lad whose other parcels had not. alrived yet, received] one from his local Red Cross. His spoken reâ€" action wasâ€"“Oh boy! Maybe Christ- mas isn’t going to be so bad after all”. ‘ Today I received a Christmas par- cel from you for which I wish to express my thanks. I \ ish you could' all realize What these parcels mean to the lads over here. There are quite a few Can- adrians in the section in which I work. They have not been looking forward to Christmas over here, be- ing so far away from home. The Richmond Richmond Hill‘ Dear Members Letters From Boys On Active Service Captain H. S.
