Bigford, Maple, Ont., the M.O.H. for Vaughan Township, gave the pupils of Thornhill Public School a medical examination on Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 20th and let. He was assisted by Nurse Mrs. W. E. Soule. There has been an epidemic of in- fluenza in the neighbourhood. Sev- era] of the school pupils have been absent for a few days. Larry. son of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Lake, Yonge St., and winner of an honor graduation diploma, made the valedictory address at Richmond Hill High School’s 2lst annual Com- mencement last week. Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Sanderson and family moved from the village to Montreal on Monday last. The prop- erty occupied by the Sandersons' was purchased some time ago by Miss Ethel Sheppard, at one time a fam- ous musician, and formerlv of To- ronto. Miss Sheppard had a large farm at King which she sold prior to her Durchase of the property in Thornhill. Mrs. D. Dyer has had an attack of pneumonia since Tuesday, Novem- ber 13th. She is still confined to.her bed, but Dr. R. W. Wesley says that her condition is satisfactory. The board of trustees of Thorn- hill Public School will hold their regular monthly meeting on Monday evening, November 26th. Some time in June Mrs. Snack of Lansing is going to put on an even- ing of entertainment, the proceeds from which are to go toward the community hall. The regular monthly meeting of Thornhill Women’s Institute was held on Thursday afternoon, Novem- ber 15th at the home of Mrs. P. Maude. Roll call was “Suggestions for improving our Sale” and al- though most of the ladies were of the opinion that last year's sale could scarcely be improved upon, many good suggestions were vouch- safed, and the saying runs true that “there is always room for improve- ment". This year it has been pro- posed that a check room be added, and the sale gives every indication of being larger than ever. The re- sponse from the members, particu- larly some of the newer ones, was most gratifying. and many beautiful articles were brought to the meet- ing and displayed. Mrs. Brillinger gave a report on the work accomplished so far toâ€" wards the Bazaar. Several letters of thanks for gifts and cards received were read, and it was decided to send fruit and cut- outs to a youngster in the village who is ill. Mr. Edwards made a motion that we call a meeting for December 2nd (Monday) to which all the parents of scouts and cubs be invited, as well as all adults interested. In the meanâ€" time, it was decided that a group committee meeting take place this week-end for the purpose of compil- ing a program to be presented to this general meeting. A very poor representation of par- ents attended the meeting held on Monday night and it is to be hoped that this will be corrected at the next general meeting. It is getting very late in the year and it would be regrettable if such a splendid troop as the First Thornhill should pass into oblivion. One visitor remarked “If I lived nearer, I would certainly join your organizationâ€"I have never met a more congenial group of women any- where.” Incidentally, around forty ladies were present, including- some new members and two or three vis- itors. A report of the visiting commit- tee was given by Mrs. Cameron, Mrs, Sinclair and Mrs. Frater. Mrs. Mackintosh brought back a report on the Local Leader Train- ing School and it was decided to wirte Mrs. Kennedy to say that Thornhill would put on a skit at the Summary Day to be held at Agin- court in the early Spring. It was Mr. J'aeger’s that the present Group make up a slate of po pects both for the grou: and for the position of It was decided that the mitteé be composed of te and also that a woman be formed in conjunctiox committee. A r'eermz of all parents at scouts and all adults interested, was called on Monday evening, November 19th, ior the purpose of discussing the mat- ter of a new Scout master and nom< inating a groupvcommittee for the current year. Thornhill must definitely have a Scoutmaster, and several prospects were mentioned, but if anyone read- ing this column is interested, or knows of anyone who might be in- terested, will you please get in touch with Mr. Bart Edwards at Thorn- hill 1.

McRoberts, Mrs. Nelson Findlay as president of the Fortniters Club, wishes to thank everyone who helped to make their bazaar of Saturday last the success it was. To those who c0n- tributed to the sale, to those who worked so hard to put it over, and to those who braved 'the wind and rain to patronize it, her sincere ap- preciation is extended. Their friends will be glad to know that the Club raised approximately $160. The Fort- niters is a new association formed in connection with the Presbyterian Church here, and this was their first bazaar. The pupils and teachers of Thorn- hill Public School gave a donation of $7.75 to the Salvation Army. Dona- tions to such worthv organizations are to be encouraged. Thornhill United Young People were hosts to a jolly group of Lans- ing Young People on Monday even- ing. After games and a sing song, an address on “Stories of Mission- aries" was given by Miss Betty Facey, Director of Religious. Educa- tion of ‘Parkdale United Church, To- ronto. Miss Betty Bone, who was in charge of the meeting, then gave a very interesting study of Copping’s picture “The Missionary Doctor”. A duet by Mrs Jean Morton and Miss Marjorie Jamieson Was greatly en- joyed. Miss Grace Johnson, of To- ronto, presided at the piano, and the sing song was directed by Marjorie Jamieson. Dainty refreshments brought a very happy evening to a close. The many friends of Trinity Church will be glad to know that the choir are keeping up those two Yuletide activities that for the past four years have contributed so much to the spirit of Christmas in our village. To help defray sundry ex- penses, the choir are again selling Christmas cards with local setting. This year’s card, designed by a well known resident artist, is an authori- tative drawing of a Christmas scene in Thornhill about 53 years ago. This is to be a limited printing of these historical cards so order early through any member of the choir. Then there' is coming the choir's Fifth Christmas Candlelight Service to be held Wednesday evening, Dec. 19th. As in the past this service will consist of carols of many naâ€" tions, four appropriate scripture passages and a short address by the Rector, Rev. S. A. R. Wood, B.A. Rev. Dr. J. S. Duncan of the United Church will assist in the service. Do plan to be there with your friends. Remember the date, Wed.. Dec. 19. 147. Maple, Mrs. T. F. Jackson. Edgeley,» Mrs. C. S.
