Their trip will include visits to Buffalo and the Eastern States. The bride was the recipient of many handsome gifts." The foregoing is the account of the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Clubine. It was printed in “The Liberal" - the newspaper in which the account of their diam- ond wedding will appear - sixty years ago. on June 27, 1901. But what a difference. The story of the wedding was set in type by dist Church, the bridal party stood under an arch of smilax. “The wedding whs witnessed by over forty guests, and at the conclusion Mr. W. Smith of New- market photographed the wed- ding party, after which the de- jeuner was served in the spacious dining room, which was decorat- ed with quantities of flowers and ferns. Perhaps there is one like him on every street. I sincerely hope so. A man like him is not famous as the world knows fame. His picture is not usually seen in the daily newspapers, and his words and statements are not quoted as having any special importance. He, how- ever, is king of his neighborhood, for his worth and per- sonality is stamped indelibly on the minds and hearts of those who come in contact with him. He is the good neighbor. His good will and concern for others reaches out like a lifeline to those who need his kindly minis-- trations and he does not hold this gift of himself from his friends. He is genial and outgoing toward children and adults alike. No . . . he does not give large donations to good causes or lead crusades against social evils. He gives something much better than that . . . he gives his time . . . his consideration . . . his personal regard in a very real way. He does what he can for others. I can only say that his love for people must be so great that the love of serving them naturally follows. This good neighbor is very likely able to sense the loneliness of the aged man who sits sunning himself in the front yard. The old man watches the people go by. They do not stop to notice those who sit on the sidelines of life. They are much too busy for that. Presently the good neighbor saunters up the street, takes the vacant chair beside the old man, and supplies the much needed companionship. What do they talk about? I can only guess. But the conversation is sure to be centred around the older man’s interests and memories. On every street, some time or other, there is a household where the oc- cupant can no longer cope with the mechanics of ser- vicing a home. The good neighbor will see about the furnace, put on or take off storm windows, shovel the snow in winter and mow the grass in the summertime. He brings mail to the shut-in and gives rides to child- ren and adults in stormy weather. Small neighborly services like these may seem insignificant to many peonle but they have far reaching effects. This man is really somebody. He illustrates a way of life that shines like a lighted candle in a darkened room. He knows how to cheer up his friends with his jolly remarks and his hearty laugh but he also knows how to be serious and sympathetic when there is trouble or sorrow about. He gives you the understanding from his heart and the work of his hands. Is there such a man on your street? Treasure him! In my opinion he is a rare artist . . . . the artist of service\ . . . the greatest artist in all the world.

Well, gentle readers, you may feel somewhat short-changed this week, but really you have only yourselves to blame. Why don't you call me and give me your neighbourhood news? Frankly. I often don’t have time to call all my spies. I do know, however. that there was a jolly open bow- ling night for the congregation of the United Church, last Wednes- day. but how many came. Who carried off the prizes and was a happy time enjoyed by all, no- one will ever know unless some- one glves me a call with the facts. And how about the dinner held for the Sunday School teachers at Cherry Hill Farm last week?

TAKE NOTICE 'I'HA'I' Though youngsters now take Thornhill's fine swimming pool for granted, many older residents recall the months of excitement and fund raising that preceded its official opening in June. 1950, during a drenching thunderstorm. The late Goron Leitch, originator of the idea. made a substantial don- ation, and local people chipped in, but it was the Thornhill Lions Club, who by various means, made up the large remain- ing sum required, and who shouldered responsibility for the undertaking. This came to mind when I noticed the “swim” accessories in Harley’s Drug Store. and I remembered too that Mr. Hal Harley. our Thornhill prescription specialist, was one of those hardworking Lions who helped to make the pool possible. FOR WATER SPRITES The bathing cap that first caught my eye was a flattering, flower trimmed Playtex model with a companion beach purse. at $2.98 the set. For diving and swimming junior misses there were plain caps in various shades at 89c. and in larger sizes, at 98c; nose clamps at 690, and ear plugs. 29c up. Sun glasses. for use between plunges, started at $1.00, with Pol- aroid models ranging from $4.95 up. City and country folk rubbed elbows at the York Farmers Market last Saturday in the mutually pleasant occupation of choosing saplings, shrubs. perennials, annuals. tomatoes. par- sley, chives, mint and other desirables for their gardens. These canny customers were also enjoying the convenience of doing their regular Saturday morning shopping, and loading up with garden needs, without moving their cars from the big parking lot. Some rose bushes had been sold out before I got there, but the nurseryman said that they still have a good stock of perennials and annuals, including the newer varieties of petunias, in reserve, and will be bringing them to market until everyone has caught Vup with the late planting season. Business was also brisk inside the market building where there is always a tempting array of fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, fish. delicatessen. homebaking, candy, cut flowers and potted plants, and for an extra fillip â€" stalls of antiques and handicrafts. Asparagus, in good supply. was selling quickly, also Ontario and Quebec maple syrup, and Allan Reesor’l wooden horses attracted interested attention. Mr. Reesor, who sells fresh eggs. now keeps only three ponies on his farm, for breeding purposes, but says that he loves horses and that one of his favourite hobbies is making, and painting these facsimiles for gate, driveway and lawn signs on which names can be lettered. Prices ranged from $3400 for a single Horse to $7.00 for a dashing tandem with carriage and driver. Mr. Harley carries a comprehensive stock of drugs. toll- etrles, and other items, and we hardly need to mention that if you require medicine your Doctor can telephone him and it will be delivered to your door. In his latest book, “The Waste Makers", Vance Packard says that the average American family throws away about 750 metal cans a year, while in the Orient a family lucky enough to possess one metal can treasures and uses it, if only as a flower pot. He predicts that because the resources of high grade ores in the United States are running out. Americans may be “mining” old forgotten garbage dumps for their rusted tin cans, within the lifetime of many of us. Harley’s Pharmacy 1715 Yonge St. Thornhlll AV. 5-1577 PLANTS . . . FOOD . . .
