OFFICERS ELECTED Clarence Mylks was elected Wor- shipful Master of Richmond Lodge It will be noted. that salvage will be collected weather permitting on the day immediately preceding- garb- age collections. As some, are still unfamiliar with the arranged dates for salvage col- lection a list of d'ates when collec- tions will be made in Richmond Hill follows. June 21, July 12 and 26, August 9 and 23, September 13 and 27, October 11 and 25, November 8 and 22, December 13. About four hundred children at- tended the movie show in the arena last Friday evening sponsored by the Salvage Committee and as their adâ€" mission fees ‘brought in about a ton of metal, 500 pounds of rags, sev- eral hundred pounds .of fats and rub- ber. fully. In the record of Richmond Hill war effcfi‘tT'éhy‘e‘ 'a’ well deserved niche for “E. “D.” Cunningham, chairman of the Salvage Committee. No matter how good a chairman may be, he needs assistance, and‘ helpers are needed now. If you have spare time, any time, volunteer to help in this work of the Salvlage Committee. Your efforts not only help worthy war charities, but as well return to industry materials vital to our war effort. i Donations to war work by the Sal- vage Committee to date total $700, and have been distributed as follows: Canadian Red Cross Society, $4100; Navy League, $50; Chinese Relief, $50; Russian Relief, $25; Salvation Army, $25; Merchant Marine, $100; Greek War Relief, $150. The splendid record of the Rich- mond Hill Salvage Committee is chiefly due to the tireless energy and enthusiasm of the chairman Mr. E. D. Cunningham. It is true there are many members on the Salvage Com- mittee, but we are sure they all would agree with us in the state- ment that the great burden of the work has fallen on the willing shoul- ders of the-chairman. The work of a salvage committee is not always easy, not always very pleasant. There must have been many discourageâ€" ments but through it all chairman “E. D." keeps plugging away and we have never heard him grumlble. He's doing a war job, an importanti one, and he’s doing it well and cheerâ€" Since the Richmond Hill Salvage Committee was organized a little more than a year ago, there has been 121,671 pounds, over 60 tons of sal- vage coilected and disposed of by the organization. This 60 ton of salvage has been sold in the best possible market and the total receipts to date are $749.90. Administration expenses are listed at six cents. and the ex- penses in connection with the salvage work have been practically nothing, all services having been given gratu- itously. Salvage Committee Collects Sixty Tons Realizes Over $700 The advice you get for nothing is usually worth just that. NEIGHBOURS DO SEEDING FOR INJURED FARMER When Mr. A. Hislop of Headford was taken to the hospital as a re- sult of injuries received when he was working on his farm, his neighbours clubbed together and finished his seeding.

The Richmond Hill Horticultural Society held a very successful spring flower show in the Masonic Hall on Monday, June 14th. The showing of Iris was particularly fine. Mrs. Phipps headed the committee in charge of the show. Mr. Albert Rice of Endean Nurseries did the judging and the thanks of the society is exâ€" tended tgflhirnfgr his able work. The following are the prize winners: ‘ When tenders are reCeived and the amount of the expense detennined there will be further debate on the question of the method of payment. Councillors Hill and Bales favored a system whereby those who used the service would pay for it. There are a great many people who dis- pose of their own household garbage and they should not be asked to pay for the special service wnich some require, was their contention. The method of payment for the proposed service has notedefinitely been decided. In the discussion Tuesâ€" day evening Reeve Greene and Coun- cillors Little and Paris spoke in favor of a collection service operated and paid for by the municipality with every householder having the privi- lege of using it without any special assessment. Members of Richmond Hill coun- cil met in special session Tuesday evening and considered at length the proposal to estalblish a municipal garbage collection service in the vill- age. The council has called for ten- ders for a weekly collection and it is hoped to inaugurate the service as quickly as possible.

Eumney, Jack Rumney, John Mk:â€" These are they whose hearts were riven Sore with woe and anguish tired, Who in prayer full oft have striven; With the God they glorified; Now, their painful conflict o’er God has bid them weep no more.
