BlffMrMIl. DANEE A MERRY HUUH The past week has been Horticul- tural Week, the option lists having been delivered personally. Just one little incident mars this, that in some Cases the books were not taken in as soon as delivered and the mischievous small boy found a delight in gathering them up and inmany cases destroying the. same. To any who did not secure a premium, we would ask you to call on the secretary or at the Times and Guide Office and secure one of these option lists. They are worth while se- curing, and commencing Saturday, March 2lst, the Boy Scouts will be calling upon you asking for your de- cision as to the premium you have de- cided upon. Secure an option list and be ready to greet the Scouts with a smile and a. membership for Weston Horticultural Society. u I l Mother's Allowance cheques for Feb- lruary, totalling; $149,085, have been mailed to 44,155 beneficiaries under the provisions of the Mothers' Allowances Act of the Province of Ontario; 2049 of the" beneficiaries reside in urban {(‘entres. and the balance of 2,106 in rural districts throughout the Province. There are 12,665 dependent children in care of the 4,155 mothers. The number of children in each family ranges from two to twelve; 68 of the mothers have 7 children each; 15 have 8; 6 have 9, and one has le. Friday, the thirteenth day of the month, may be looked upon by some as Hoodoo Day, have unlucky omens attached to it, but as in the case of all fables, there is an exception to the rule, and when Weston Horticultural Society decide to take matters into their hands, success, not failure is the result. The weather man did try to nip fin- gers and noses but it only served the purpose‘of putting new life into the veins, and by the time the tunny" friends reached the Vocational School every- one was bubbling over with health and good spirits from the tussle with the elements. Nearly two hundred people representing all classes, creedr; and walks of life in Weston assembled, and for two 01' three hours enjoyed them- selves tripping the light fantastic to the strains of Packham's Bijou Or- ohestra, who were in their usual good form, and gave of their best to the delight of the entire company. Friday, 13th, Proves a Lucky Star for Weston Juvenile Community Gardeners Another feature of the evening was the refreshments, all of home cooking, the many dainty toothsome viahds ra- pidly disappearing as the merry danc- ers rested and visited with each ether over the fragrant coffee, dainty sand- wich and delightsome cakes. The Young People Present Sketch Typical of Missionary Conditions To-day oh Tuesday evening last, the Bap- tist Young People, with Miss Tapscott .as director. under the auspices of the Women's Missionary Circle, presented a. very pleasing and instructive Mis- sion Story, "The Pill Bottle." The scene unfolded before the eyes of the many friends present, was one pared- lel with life and conditions today and although worked out in story form, with a thread of romance running through it and some of the sordid de- tails of every day living omitted, the truths contained in the sketch sank deep into the heart and revealed the need of Mission workers, the call for prayer and financial assistance and the dire results of failure it these are un- heeded by the friends at home. A young lady graduate of one of the big American Colleges, goes to visit her parents who are Missionaries in far away India, intending to return to her beloved New York and enter into a business life. While in India she notes the efforts of her Father to help the people among whom he labors, and the many doors closed against hun, es- pecially in medicine and in assisting the women. She therefore decides to re- turn to America and study medicine and then return to India and labor among; the women of that country. The days pass by and again we see her in India, but this time as a Medical Missionary, aiding the sick and the helpless women and children, happy in her work and service for others, yet from time to, time. she is saddened by the lack of sympathy and support from the friends at home, without whose assistance she is unable to carry on, showing the great need of co-operation between those at home, and those who serve in the foreign centres. No man liveth unto himeself. Toronto beneficiaries numbered 783 and shared $31,281; 187 beneficiaries residing in York Cmfhty shade $5,- 878. 112 are foster-mothers to orphaned children. PAID $149,085 IN FEBRUARY IN MOTHERS' ALLOWANCE BAPTIST Rilo, 1llSulll STORY The cause of dependency of the 1110- thers is on account of the death of the children,. the death of both parents of the desertion of the father where the period of desertion is five years or up- ward: 3,403 are widows. 483 are wives of incapacitated hus, bands. 157 are mothers who have been de- serted by their husbands for a period of five years and upward. WEST YORKS NEli/VSY WEEKLY VtiistC1Nl5plif,- itrttsr____t?__'_i!it: (lihtitiah On Tuesday, March 30th, the Young People's League met under the diree- tion of the Missionary Dept. The ut- tendance was somewhat marred on ac- count of the thunderstorm which raged with considerable vigour for an hour or so, but as it was, there were be- tween thirty-five and forty present to enjoy the splendid program. Mr. Clifford Mertens, the Missionary Vice- President, was in charge of the sm,rt,/ ing. The program took the form of il"; Summer School night. There were‘ four speakers iwresent to tell the young l people about the splendid Summer which is held every yjigr at the Elgin: House, Muskoka. T f‘l‘speakers were‘ Mr. J. It. Empringh the President of the School; Miss Ln an Wright, the Secretary; and Messrs) ohns and Boy- er, who are director', [of the school. Pictures were thrown? on the screen, illustrating the daily activities of the school. The first speaker was Mr. Johns, who described the pictures in a, very creditable mal ner. The pic- tures started with th f crowd arriving at Lake Joseph Stat n and waiting for the steamer to t ce them to the Elgin House. At last the steamer \ar- rived and the happy p rty began their picturesque trip through the Muskoka Lakes. Soon the hotel came in view and the steamer came to rest at the wharf. The hotel is one of the finest of the Muskoka Hotels. Pictures were shown of the various sports engaged in, including the baseball game be- tween the "pulpit and pew," the canoe race, swimming races, nail driving con- test, and the pageant which is a thrill- ing display every year, when the dif- ferent study classes paraded past the camera man and acted the things they had been studying during the week in the various study classes. The picture of Brampton District revealed some of the Weston League members who at- tended two years ago. The pictures of the study classes formed very amusing expressions in character study. The farewell pictures were also very amus- ing, some of the students leaving by boat and others by motor. Miss Wright Was the“ next speaker, telling of the work of the school in the past, and what had been accomplished in the last nine years, this being the life of the school. This year will be the' last school held under the Methodist Church. Next year's school will be under the United Church of Canada. Miss Wright said that many people had the idea that youcould not go to the school unless you,intended to be a, Missionary, but that '_very year those who attend receive 1l'itsl1'2', aid in bed coming better Sunday School teachers, league workers and church workers, whereas others attend the school and receive such deep Christian impressions and realize that they are called into active Christian service as ministers, missionaries, nurses, Y.M.C.A. and so- cial service workers. Mr. Empringham spoke on the plans for the nineteen twenty-five school, and Mr. Boyer 'spoke on the, impression of the school on a student after nine years' at- tendance. Miss C. Macklin rendered 'a vocal solo in her usual pleasing man- ner. The meeting was brought to a close with the benediction by the METH. Y.P.L§ Congratulations were extended to Mrs. Bell, Main st."N., on Tuesday, when within the family circle of her own home, she celebrated her 92nd birthday.' To Mrs. Bell the honor is due of being one of the oldest residents of Weston, also one who has seen pastor. 1lll3nli BIT many changes in the years as they have drifted by. Born in the little village of Burnhamthorpe, the daughter of Mr. Belcher, who in stirring days of the Mackenzie Rebellion kept the Burnhamthorpe Hostelry, the pendez- vous of the United Empire Loyalist. Mrs. Bell can recite many interesting reminiscences of those exciting days. At the age of 20 years she was unit- ed in marriage to Mr. Edward Bell, and for some years they farmed in Etobicoke Township, later moving to other sections of Ontario, until some twenty-five years ago when retiring from farm life, they decided to return to their native soil and settled in Wes- ton, Mr. Bell's death occurring some twenty odd years ago. Though frail in body, owing to the passing of the years, Mrs. Bell takes a keen interest in the community and incidents of daily happenings, also is always ready with a cheery smile to greet the many friends who. drop in to see her from time to time. A daughter, Mrs. Allen, resides with her mother, also the only son, John; another married daughter, Mrs. Van Sickle. resides in Hamilton. Mrs. E. Bell, Main St. N., Re- cipient of Hearty Birthday Greetings Friday; 13th, was "At Home Day" for Weston Volunteer Fire Brigade and on Friday evening last, they dem- onstrated their ability to entertain friends just as successfully as fight fires when the occasion demanded it. Messrs. Witty, Greaves and Maw Brothers were on hand with the music, and Frank Smith the genial floor manager, kepl things going, as the guests engaged in the old fashioned dances called for on the programme. Refreshments were served by the com- mittee in charge, and before departing for home one and all of the many guests present voiced their appreeia- tion of the delightful evening provided for their entertainment. Mrs. Law, King St., and Mrs. Kaake, George se, spent the week-end with friends in Scarboro. TFrrIjNrtrgrirtT," M g R minim; ’1 925 W EITIZEN'S BEND llllflllill?
