It is at affairs of this kind that local talent is displayed, and there certainly are many smart youngsters in the comâ€" munity whose performances are sure to please wherever they may go. The members of the lodge take this opportunity of thanking Miss Dawn Holiland who very capably accompanâ€" ied all the dance numbers, and add that they are happy to find that so many were able to attend and to enâ€" joy this yearly party. Among the Many Attractive New Year‘s Cards Received Many very pleasing New Year‘s cards have ‘been received by The Advance. Few of them are more noteworthy than the interesting greeting card received from Mr. Robt. C. Smith, president of the wellâ€"known advertising firm of R. C. Smith Son, Limited, Toronto. The front page design shows a radio tower and an aeroplane in flight. The words of the accompanying message on the front page design are:â€"‘"Canada Preâ€" pares for Greater Business Expansion.‘ The inside pages show a map giving the. general layout of the City of Toronto Island Airport. The card also carries an inspiring reference to the air serâ€" vice between Canada and kngland. Mr. Smith confesses to the interest of his firm in modern developments and inâ€" ventions. "Our agency," says the card, "is always alert to the beginning of major developments such as the habits of our people and the commerce of _our country, because it is our business to fit the wings of advertising to the fustlage of business." Accompanying the grectings card is ‘ a sprig of heather.
