PHONE: 188 WESTON WESTON WESTON PHONE; 3 1 7 ' A Working Leader. One of the pioneers in this work of fire prevention is Mr. Duncan, of Mount Hamilton. This locality has alwaysgbeen a tire trap owing to the lack of ambition' of a certain class of foreigners who care not whether they live in a house or a hovel, so-long as they live. A féw years ago, this place was not even graced with an.extra water pail. Realizing the great dan- ger, Fireman Duncan called a meet- ing of some' of the interested parties pf this little townand the first move in the right direction was made. Following a resolution passed at this informal meeting a deputation waited on the council and after much dis- cussion they were finally given per- mission to purchase one of the cheap- est outfits possible. Further requests were presented, asking for housing for the apparatus, and another delay followed but they were eventually re- warded, but once mort, with the cheapest that could be purchased. Despite the obstacles that have been constantly put before these epter- prising gentlemen, they are now a flourishing brigade and last year, in this town of a little less than five thousand people, they had only.tire damage to the loss of $250. This was quoted as an illustration owing to the financial stringency that' prevails immediately that a fire brigade ap- plies to council for fire equipment. Fire Marshal Speaks The ’Firg Marshal of Ontario was called on to speak and in responding he paid a tribute to the eloquencegof Major Burch and also to the subject which the Chaplain had spoken on. He mentioned that during the past year thfrty-eight men, women and children had lost their lives through fire and that .the majority of these were women and children: Greater efforts were being put forth for the prevention of fire, as that was the one huge problem that Confronted all fire- men. Heretofore it has been the sole aim to extinguish fires as they occur, but nothing had been done to prevent their occurrence. To verify the statements put forth, the Marshal gave the following figures of the firés that had occurred under the dates; mentioned. During the year 1916 there were 10,279 fires; 1917, 9,601; 1918, 9,740; 1919, 9,396; 1920, 9,296; for the first six months of this year there has been a reduction of four hundred fires as compared with the same period of last year. These fig- ures show that since the system of Fire Prevention has been introduced, there has been a steady and consistent reduction in the number of fires throughout the province. This also comes as the result of the creation of a Fire Marshal together with his staff, who have been instrumental in the formation of a system to forstall disaster. _ On Friday last the Methodist Ath- letic Association Tennis Club went to East Toronto and -. played. Monarch Park, winning two out of the three sets. Messrs. Percy Davidge and Frank Johnston upheld the honors of the local club, playing in the first against Messrs. Foley and Galbraith, and lost to a score of 6-4. Their op- ponents in the second set were Messrs. Harris and Redmond. and in the third Messrs. Gray and McBeth, the Weston boys winning in both sets, dt-2, and 6-4 respectively. An’exhibition game was, then played. Messrs. George Davidge and Lindsay {\Vard of the M.A.A. playing Messrs. Charles and Jones, the local boys being the losers by 6-2. Following; the games an adjournment was made to the Blue Bird Inn, tables having beeai, reserved and dainty re- freshments Were served and a toast of welcome given to the visitors. A re- turn game will be played on the home courts in the near future. Mi. P. S. Bateman, who has seen seventy-eight summers.

Immediately after the conclusion of Major Burch/s address, business rela- tive to the welfare of the Ontario Volunteer Firemen’s Convention was resumed. It was decided to revise the already long lisit ot members of the Association who had served overseas and also to prepare a list proper of those who had paid the supreme sac- rifice. This suggestion was put in the form of a resolution and carried unanimously. , ._'.rhe Inevitable.

Port Credit has hag some trouble with players certificates, but this has been straightened out to the satisfaption of the league officials: =Port Credit won from the Crescents on Tuesday night although the Cres- cents gave them an awful scare.

The question asked and the thought in the minds of many is Why allow the river bed to be used as an advertis- ing medium. For the past. year one of the large boulders has carried a, sign, which to many people is obJec- tionable, and causes a feeling of re- sentment and anger. Why not remove the stone if the words cannot be erased or painted over, and by this means remove the eyesore which islet blot on an otherwise beautiful scenery and river view unsurpassed by any, and one which adds prestige to our com- munity. ‘ The members of the Christ Church purpose holding a garden party or; the bowling green, Stop 14 on August Bth, when a Splendid variety of amuse- ments, will be tprovided.
