The Wes- ton line-up was as follows: Half- backs, Griffith, Varcoe, Linfoot; fly- ing wing, McKissock; quarter-back, "Red" Hendry; centre scrim and sup- ports, Morton, Cathcart and Wink- worth; on the right-were Dick, War- ren and Mather; on the left Bull, Has- sard and McPherson. The Humber- side team looked very formidable against the little Westonians and in the first quarter they pushed them all over the lot, but this is excusable as the Weston boys had never experi- enced a game before and had not got on to the ropes as yet, but in the sec- ond quarter they straightened up and pushed towards the enemy's goal. At half time the score was 10-5 for Hum- bervale. Then the Westionians got the lead in the next quarter and made it 15-10. At full time it Was a tie, 15- 15. They played 20 minutes overtime and in that time Westdh got another touch. In the last minute Humber- side got a kick over but that did not win the game. The final score was 20-16 for Weston. The reason the Weston boys won is that their speed and tackling was superb. None "got away on them, but they continually got away from the Cardinal Greys. The game proved very interesting and roused the school spirit in Weston, which was decidedly lacking before. Look out for the announcement or' other games. Everyone was greatly surprised when the returns were flashed across the wires on Monday night. Those who witnessed the early returns were still hopeful that the worst waSeall coming along first. It was soon r'ea- lized, however, that the worst was yet to come. The government candidates were being badly handled all along the line. The Liberal candidates were in the same plight. They both lost seats that looked good to each other, but the U.F.O. were the dark horses all the way along the line. The run made by this organization was the greatest surprise of the day. Their candidates were all well organized and made good runs. The seats that they succeeded in winning all showed that these ridings would not submit to the party views, but wanted the, free in- dependent policies of the country op- erated on democratic lines. They want the voice of the people to rule and not the party policy to dictate. Another big increase was the number of labor candidates that were return- ed to the Parliament. This was not thought of. It, however, points to the change of the times. Old party lines do not hold the Iroters to-day. A man who is elected to represent a riding to-day must realise that he is there to attend to the wants and de- mands of his constituency. Ques- tions of the day must be clearly stated and stands taken by the leaders ot the people to either stand or fall upon. The middle position is not to be tol- erated. The tact that only some 20 members out of 111 who sat in the last legislature have been returned shows how the old House has been overhauled. The change in the per- sonal of the House is one of the greatest that has taken place. Its lining up to carry on the great work of the Province will be watched with considerable interest, The different moves will all be carefully analyzed so that the new Legislature will be caled upon to give a stricter account of its stewardship than another body had had to do. The outcome of the whole situation is most complex and will not be unravelled tor some days yet. joy the daylight after working hours that Would doubtless have been de- nied them under the old plan. Many little trips, games, outings and other pleasures have been enjoyed during the past season. It has also enabled a number otpersons to-do/a, lot of garden work that otherwise would never have been done. This has been very beneficial to the wpole.qoyn,try as it has increased the production' ot the land ind thus the supply has been greater than otherwise. {it would have been. This" helps to' keep down the' cost of living. _It again has been a means of conserving power and,litrht in the large industrial plants. On the other hand irhas been rather a detri- ment to the farmers. The early hours before the sun has had time to dry off the ground made a loss of time for the working hours on the farm. The necessity of milking in the dark all the year round was a bad feature for those who were in the milk business. It was necessary to rise early on account of the milk having to be into the city m time. No doubt after the experience ot' this year the time will not be changed again next year. On Sunday morning, the 26th day of October, standard time will once more reign universally. This is the day set by the railroads to change back their clocks from the daylight saving plan to standard time. This change Will take place at two o'cloclr Sunday morning, the 26th. You will thus have to place your clock back one hour so that you will be on the right time tor church Sunday morning. Mreston, in conformity with the rest of the large centres changed her tirade to the daylight saving plan. The Mayor, John Gardhouse, now calls upon the citizens of Weston to make the change back to the standard time at the same time as the clocks are being changed in the city and by the railroad companies. All the church Services will be held according to the standard time and business will be carried on along the standard time on Monday morning. _ The change, has been most bene- ficial to those working in offices or factories. It hasknah1ed them to en- While the government were defeat- ed the people of Ontario as a. whole made no mistake of what their de- sire is upon the liquor question.

Mimico, Oct. 21.--That Dr. Forbes Godfrey, Conservative member tor West York, is still popular in his rid- ing is shown by the election returns to date, which include the count for all subdivisions except fourteen in Ward 7, Toronto, which are expected to add, in all, about 200 to his total majority. All divisions of the riding gave Dr. Godfrey a substantial ma- "tity, with the exception of Vaughan Township, which is strongly U.F.O.. and gave James Simpson, the Labor- U.F.O. candidate, a majority of 542, the vote in the township standing: Godfrey 491, Simpson 1033. At the last Provincial election Dr. Forbes Godfrey was elected by acclamation, and in 1911 his majority in West York was 1,300. _' , DECISI VE VICTORY vote taken was an emphatic i-yndorsa- tion of the preSent liquor legislation. It stated that as far as Ontario is con- cerned the people do not want liquor or strong drink in this province. This has been the greatest advance in the day. The Hearst Government did a fine piece of work when they passed this act as a war time measure. Its successful working during the war period convinced the people of its ability and usefulness. Our temper- ance advances have not been the re- sult of a few days hasty legislation. It has been the result of many tried experiments. The benefit derived from the advances of the legislation has proven to be very great, The fact that the City of Toronto carried the three noes on the Jeferendum is _a tribute to the Temp Tance Legislation. Nothing but beneficial results would have made this possible. Ontario's efforts along, this line have been crowned with success. The citizens of Weston have shown on more than one occasion that'they are deeply interested in the welfare of our boys and girls. Also of our youths and older people. Great efforts have been put forth to ,take away from these young,.peop1e all the tempta- tions that will lead them asray. There has been a special effort to remove anything that will destroy the physi- cal beihg of our‘tboysrorugirls. Now have' you ever stopped fo think of what it. means, tontake away alCthe gathering places where fellows spend social hours and' still make no effort, to replace them try something better? This is, the position that we are in here. We have a good town with a lot of bright youngpeople. At the present time there is,no opportunity oft hese people gathering together for social functions, sport, athletics or even skating. :~Is it to the best inter, ests ofithese persons that_they-shou1d have to go into-the 'citynto get their amusements, pleasures, athletic train- ing and sports? No, it is not. We should have sufficient enterprise in Weston to carry on enough life that, all oinr young people will have enough going on at home to keep them at home. This can be started off right away. Let those who are interested in the building of young life get in behind a skating rink for our young people in Weston this year. Let them make a move to organize a club for the young people to pass a social hour and hold functions. Let them orga- nize the churches into different Hines of activities, such as debating socie- ties, athletic clubs and many other societies that would fill in the hours for the young people. These would be the means of bringing into our churches or into close contact with the churches these same people whom we are now working to reach, The whole plan could be organized by those who have been most active in carrying on their splendid work in the recent campaign. The votes polled in the several di- visions of West York on Monday stands as follows, with fourteen sub- divisions in West Toronto to hear tromp Majorities for Dr. Forbes God- frey: Ward 7, 1500; York Townsh,ip, 875; Etobicoke, 616; Mimico, 376; New Toronto, 73; Weston, 279; Wood- bridge, 120. Majority tor Jas. Simp- son in Vaughan Township, 542. Dr. Godfrey's total majority, 3297. l WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER GIVE THEM SOMETHING FOR DR. GODFREY 22nd, 1919 Great credit is due to the efficient Way in which the local Referendum Committee carried on their work. It was a most pleasant climax after the week ot work done by this commit- tee to find that they succeeded in bringing out as large a vote as they did and taking precaution to have it nearly all properly recorded. It means a lot of work and takes up a lot of time. When, however, the IN9- sults are as pleasant as they were here when the referendum returns came in the labor is paid for. The Commit- tee was strong and most thorough in its work, Billiards are making a big hit with the boys of the town. The Eagle Bit'- liard Parlors have found that to keep up with the demands for the coming seasiort it is necessary to place four more new tables. A large English“ billiard table and a new smaller table/ have already been installed and the) other two will be placed in a short‘ time. These parlors are filling in ther) long-wanted meeting place in our town. for the men. Under the capable' management it is an ideal place to. spent: an enjoyable half hour, There: tisi1y)der"sray the formation of a. big' {billiard tournament, which will be prayed off during the next three" months} The priZes for this will con-' sist of team and individual put up Joy. the billiard firms. Teams from the Kodak, Massey Harris, Bowling Club,' C.C.M. and town are elligible for the competition. Details for this big event will be published. I Can it not be arranged that we have a Junior hockey league formed in the town with our different church- es? This would be an incentive tor the development ot the game among our boys and also a start to bring this game and boys under church influ- ence. It would also be a great means of giving the boys some real active outdoor sport. Mr. J, J. Hollingshead After a short illness Mr. Joseph J Homngshead' passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Martin Moody, Church St, Weston, on Men- day, October 20th, 1919.' Deceased, who was in his 66th year, had been in failing health for some months, but was only confined to his bed for a few weeks. He was well known in the community, having conducted a jewelery business in Woodbridge for ll number of years, moving from there to Tottenham and during the past few years was in business at Weston. He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Lucas, of St. Thomas, Mrs. M. Moody, Weston, and one son, Wilbert Hol- lingshead, Port Arthur. Mr. B. Hol- lingshead, of Weston, is a brother. Funeral services were held on Wed-, nesday, October 22nd, interment tak- ing place at King City Cemetery. There is another thing that would', boom the game in Weston if it were! got hold of. It is the formation oti a town hockey league. With the my] tories in this vicinity, the C.C.M., the‘ Massey Harris, the Kodak, Thistle-I town, Weston and Mt. Dennis, there. could be organized a real live league.i It would be a boom to the game andl it would create a healthy athletic' spirit in this centre. It would de-t velop players for our O.H.A. teams and would give the town something! to look forward too. Let this be talk- I ed up and see if the league can not! be organized., . l The other plan that next year the Senior groupbe made up of the teams, from Toronto, Orangeville, Bramptom and Weston. This would give a tastsl group and make things very interest-) ing for all four teams. Plans of or": ganization along these lines are being talked of and will doubtless material-, ize, The proposed planned club idea for the Weston Lacrosse Club is what is wanted in this town. The local club had a good season and did well. They felt the great handicap tor quarters all year, also the real class competi- tion. It is now felt that there should be a permanent organization and that they should have quarters. This is the right step and the quicker it is taken the better it will be for the ath-' letic activities of this town.
