These men were from the various newly organized districts for the Dominion Constituency of _ West York. . Sir Henry, in a few well chosâ€" en remarks, welcomed all the guests of the evening, and after all had partakâ€" en of a fine dinner, turned the meetâ€" ing over to the old reliable Earl Lawâ€" son, who called upon the president of the Association, Mayor R. J. Flynn, of Weston; Mr. Clydesdale, organizer, and Mr. Charles King, president of the Lake Shore Association, who were the first three speakers. They told of the splendid work that was being carried on and the complete organization that was being placed in the riding. Then each membert of the various districts gave a detail of the work that they were doing. These were voiced by Mr. Ferguson, of Silverthorne, Mr. W. Carson, of North York; Mr. McGregâ€" or, of York Township; Nelson Boylan, Mount Dennis; Walter Webster, Wesâ€" ton; Mr. Pate, Runnymede and disâ€" trict; Mr. Hudson, Swansea; Charles King, Mimico and Humber Bay; H.

Bridge, Hospital Grant and Highway Acts Receive Attention York County Council met last week for the first session of the year and found a considerable budget to cover. The standing committees for the year were appointed, and in addition to this important matters ~discussed covered the amendment of the Highways Aect, whereby the maximum load carried by trucks on the highways would be limâ€" ited: to three and oneâ€"half tons, with a speed pf fifteen miles. Highways Expenditure The Departmentg of Highways, reâ€" ported that the county share of Proâ€" vincial Highways this year would be $135,857, of which $131,827 is for conâ€" struction. The matter contained in the above letters will be. dealt with by council at this session. A delegation ~from _ York County Hospital, Newmarket, asked for inâ€" crease of grant, stating that now the hospital was owned and operated by the county, was also equipped with all modern conveniences, _ and had given treatment to one hundred and seventy patients during the past year, they felt a grant of $1,000° was required. This matter was referred to the finâ€" unce committee for consideration. A report upon the proposed Lambton high level bridge was read by Commisâ€" sioner Keith, wherein it was stated the cost wouldsbe $450,000. Regarding the construction of this bridge, Mr. Keith stated, he felt it should be gone ahead with, but the commission did not feel in a position to construct this without a substantial grant from the township. The only bridge, they would feel justiâ€" fied in building without this aid would be one for vehicular traffic, but in looking over the situation, they would not deem it wise to construct a bridge at this particular section for this purâ€" pose only as they were convinced one would soon be needed for railway traffic. Reeve T. A. C Tier of Eto: bicoke Township said, Etobicoke and York Township Councils would get toâ€" gether on this matter, and see what could be done.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1925 1 Thanking you for your valued space for this letter, and hoping.that some Councillor will be stirred by same, and so. enable some poor unfortunate to earn a few honest dollars, instead of recciving charity.. In addition to ‘this the ‘citizens of the town would also have the privelege of walking on the sidewalks that they pay for, in place of wading through the snow as at preâ€" sent in a number of instances. Yours very sincerely, $ TAXPAYER. We were again reminded, during the recent cold and stormy weather, of the unemployment situation in our town, and of the consequent shortage of food in these homes. Theisituation is also emphasized. ~_Our Council has the power, through a byâ€"law, to give the majority of these men honest work in cleaning the sideâ€" walks of snow and charging the cost of the same on the taxes of the proâ€" perty owners. This is done in other towns, so why not / Weston? Our Council, apparently, prefers that these men be fed and clothed by the generâ€" ous and kind hearted residents of the town, as in so doing it so saves the Council a little,added trouble. A numâ€" her of citizens thought that this year with a few new facés in Council that we would have a little life and energy shown, but _ apparéntly they are much similar to Their predecessors of, years gone by, who thought that what â€"was good enought thirty five years ago was quite good enought toâ€"day, those days are gone forever. meannly h e en e oo e n e e e reauer es onere St. John‘s A.Y.P.A. on Wednesday evening last entertained at a most delightful social ‘evening, when .

The visiting members and the home branch one and all turning out in the cosâ€" tumes they wore some ten or fifteen years ago. Dolls, teddyâ€"bears, toys and all the little nothings that used to fill them with childish delight when they were "kids" had been resurrected, or borrowed from the present modern child,. either the little sisiter, or broâ€" ther, and all occupied a big part in the evening‘s programme. ‘As a proof that, for that evening at any rate, they had drifted back to childhood the hapâ€" py: look upon: the faces, of all present as they dragged the treasured toy behind them and licked contentedâ€" ly at a lollypop, which had been proâ€" vided by the thoughtful _committee, was sufficient evidence. Everyon‘e enâ€" tered intoâ€"the spirit of the evening with great enthusiasm and much fun and laughter was caused over the varâ€" ious specimens of glorified childhood, as they flitted about the room.~ Then came the grand march, which was anâ€" other feature of this enjoyable evening» when the Mama_ Doll came into its own among the young men and woâ€" men. It was indeed a rare spectacle to behold one which could not fail to bring that social feeling of comtradeâ€" ship which is ~so. necssary between Following a sing song, in which the boys joined most heartily, and several very clever and amusing slight of hand tricks put on by Mr. Wagnes, supper was served. The usual toasts were proâ€" posed and responded to, and in conâ€" nection with the toast to the guest of the evening, Stewart was presented with an initialed penknife from the scouts and from the members of Camp Eotus a pair of gold) initialed cuff links. Expressions of regrel were expressed on all sides at the coming separation which his removal from their midst enâ€" tailed, but these were coupled with good wishes for his happiness and sucâ€" cess in the new life he was soon to enter.â€" The meeting closed with a furâ€" ther repetition â€" of kind wishes and hopes of meeting again in the pathway through life.
