as g L CLOSING THE HOME IN SUMMER , ‘The local court of the Independent Order of Foresters want all their members to note that on Sunday after- noon the 45th anniversary will be cel- ebrated.' Arrangements have been completed for a big parade on Sunday afternoon from the corner of Queen and University Ave. to the Massey Hall. All members are invited to meet there at 2 p.m. The Hon. Dr. Cody, Minister of Education, will de- liver an address, and there has been arranged a fine program: Harold Jar- vis, tenor; Miss Isabel Ivey, soprano, ‘and the ‘48th Highlanders band. Let there tre' a good representation from our court at this meeting. _Private E. C. Dunk enlisted trom the C.C.M. Assembling Department January 3rd, 1916, went overseas the following August Wlth 'he 126th, uni took part in the engagements at Vinny, Lens and Arras, being wounded at Lens in July, 1917, and at Arras in April, 1918. He returned three or four months‘ ago. Driver A. C. Ridditord enlisted from the Shipping Department January 10th, 1916, went overseas March 9th of the same year, and was with the 3rd Divisional Ammunition Column and was in the thick of things from the Somme bazcle lo the time of the armistice. In the C.C.M. Shipping Department at the present time are three men recently returned trom, the front,who enlisted from the C.C.M. plant early in the war, and have seen active ser- vice since that time, being in most of the famous engagements in which the Canadians distinguished themselves so highly. Quartermaster Sergt. G. H. Brown enlisted from the C. C. M. Shipping Department January 11th, 1916, went overseas August 11th, 1916, with the 126th Battalion, and was in the bat.. tles of Vimy, II1ll 70, Lens and Pass, citemtaele. It is also interesting to Weston sub- scribers to know that the Company is extending business base rate area from half mile to one mile, thereby reduc- ing paying excess mileage on a busi- ness rate of $8.00 per year. As this applies to all the exchanges in the area, it will be a. considerable reduc- tion to yearly revenue of Company. It has been decided by Manager Brown that the lacrosse club will make arrangements to enter a junior beam in the city league.- In this case it will be necessary for the juniors to supply their own sticks. All the young- er’ players who are givinc: so much Promise (man: Isp _ec_ I' f" lselves or; this opportunity ot pmyzng me game. \ The discontinuing of district ser- vice between Weston and Islington will reduce a concession that has to be maintained at a, large cost to the Com- pany, and you will readily understand all concessions have to be paid for. Ninety-nine per cent. of Weston subscribers are helping to maintain a concession that is only a benefit to one per cent. and thereby, you will see, the unjustness. l Before leaving the home for the summer vacation, a careful inspeciion should be made of the entire premises. It is well to throw out all electric light main switches and turn off the gas at the meter, also to see that the plumb- ing is in good condition. Turn off the water at its entrance to the, house, to avoid any defect in water pints caus- ing damage by flooding, It 15 a good plan to pour a small amount of hydro- carbon into all traps and water seals to prevent evaporation ot the wa.ter and the escape of sewer" gnu. Spam ll attention should be given to floor oil mops and oily rags. These should be safely stored in metal coni‘incv‘s, as they are fruitful sources of tire by spontaneous combustion. When the house is opened again,“ should be well ventilated and thoroughly t", nned. us to have municipal boundaries made dividing line between' the Company's exchanges. Weston area are extended free service with four townships and one municipality, and it can be readily understood that this exchange bound- ary confined to one municipality would work out very poorly in the in- terest of subscribers. . Contention has also been raised that dividing of Municipality of Etobicoke has) caused a. slight inconvenience. Owing to location of our eXChanges in different towns,'it is impossible for In explaining the toll charges made by the Company for discontinuing dis- trict service between Islington,, New Toronto and Weston, we might state in an observation made by the Company we found a. very small number of Weston subscribers required this ser- vice, as out of 154 calls made in 4 days only about 1.8 per cent. were ac- tual business calls. These calls were made by 11 subscribers. The percent- age was maintained by the incoming calls from Islington and New Toronto to Weston. You are no doubt aware at the time the district service was installed the municipalities were very small, but at the present time. the towns mentioned are all of a self con- taining community, having all the ta- cilities that go to make up a town. Therefore this district service has practically died out, with exception of a small percentage located adjacent to dividing line. THE POSITION AS DEFINED BY THE BELL TELEPHONE CO. S.

TIMES ill Ell Published every Wednesday NEW“ TORONTO MIMICO flll Brampton has received an invitation to play New York 911 Saturday. They will not be able, to play this week, as they go to Woodbridge for' their first intermediate game. It is like the good old days to hear ot the old guards out in the game again. On Monday night some of the fellows were out for their first work out. It will take a lot of such work outs to bring the fellows back to con- dition. With the first game on the let it means a hard row to plow. Still these fellows did play the game and played it well. A little practice will no doubt bring back all their old time speed and quibk work. Still the other teams are also progressing very fast. QueenC's000201020 Goodyr 002000000 Umpire-Tom Gloster.

The team is in good condition The second game was won by Queen Cities, when they beat Good- years 5 to 2. Queen Cities have won four games and lost none.

This has Seen the means of giving the Weston course a little publicity. It is not to be thought,how- ever, for one moment that the Weston people are in sympathy with any move that ‘is not in the interest of or- ganized sport. In these days we need to observe the regulations of true am- ateur sport in all departments. As a. result ot this meet it was hard'to secure officials from the town, and some ot the riders who came refused to take part when it was found out that the meet was not sanctioned. On- ly 12 faced the starter and none of them will be allowed to take part in a C.W.A. meet as d result. The race re- sulted: 1 S. Taylor, 2 L. Fisher, 3 P. Blackmore, 4 J. Bond, 5 J. Hillock, 6 G.

Let it be considered what makes up a good shopping live town. In the first place you will note that bright lights with attractive windows always draws people. This, in tact, has.proven to be one of the great attractions for a promenade centre for people coming into town on Saturday nights and meeting their friends, see the latest displays in the windows,and take home their supplies. Note the number of persons who go to the Junction on Saturday nights for this purpose. Therefore the first thing that we want is to have the centre of the town brilliant with lights. It will require more lights from the Hydro, but that cap be arranged. It will also require more lights for the store windows. The merchants of \Veston should all get together and help the men of Eto- bicoke to bring before the railway board the action of the Bell Telephone Company. It is reported in our city papers that the company intended that all calls from the Islington exchange will after the first of July become long distance calls. As the merchants of this town do a lot of business over the phone. with this district, you can see that it affects you. It is the co- operation with the farmers' club and citizens of the district that the appeal to the Railway Board for the rights of Etobicoke that the company can be made to fulfill their agreement with the citizens 'of that township. Our local association should get to- gether at once and discuss the whole question. In fact, the whole town might hold a public meeting for the discussion of the question. The com- pany have just received the right to increase their rates, but they should not be permitted to carry out this last idea that has now entered into 'the head of their management. Don't wait --aet at once. We want Weston as the centre and don't spoil chances by letting them take away the telephone rights. On Saturday they have arranged to play a match With the Scarboro Golf Club. Fifteen men will play at the Weston green and fifteen on the other greens. This should be a good test for the local club. On account of the condition of the greens it was decided that the month- ly medal competition be_postponed till Saturday, June 21st. - great doings at the green. All were on J1and to take part in the president and Vice-president match. It was an ideal day for bowling and those pres- .ent enjoyed it to the full. It was with much amusement and Joy that the notable features on the green were watched and their; pet phrases listen- ed to. It is wonderful to see the an- tics of some of these men and see with what keen interest they watch each turn of the bowl. Extra men Will be put on and the work rushed along as"tast as it is pos- sible. It was rather unique the way in which the selection of players was ma,de. The president and vice-presi- dent selected their skips and then their men from those present. It was not a rink affair, but one that every- body played in. The result showed that the vice skip selected the better combination of bowlers, as he won out. The following are the players and their scores. J. M. Pearen w. J. Hales J. C. Irvin A. J. Barker L. B.

Greens number B, 7 , 10, I7 were the ones that buttered most, and the 131‘qu culvert at the G.T.R. cross- ing. This is a decided setback to the club as the season is getting on and this work was well advanced. F Merchants, Get in Line . _ ALLEN" .

The second step is for the town to organize a special Saturday bargam price list each week. Not a price list that is higher than you can buy else- where, but one that will attract the country and town people to 1Veston. This could be done to goodladvantage by the merchants of the town. It would place our merchants in a posi- tion that each one would be helping the other. Everyone who is encour-' aged to patronize the home merchant will leave other money here also. Let, the Retail Merchants' Association get together and talk this over and see if there cannot be some definite plan worked out along; this line. Co-opera- tion will mean more business.
