This small reduction may not look very big when in print, or in speaking of the matter, but when taken into consideration the amount of local improvements in the matter of roads, sidewalks, sewers, schools, etc., it is indeed some thing to be proud of. The town has gone ahead, making rapid strides, yet has not increased her tax rate, which is based as follows: County rateâ€"5.42 mills. High & Vocational . Schoolsâ€"â€"â€"7.57 mills. Public Schoolsâ€"9.38 mills. Town General Rateâ€"20.13. Making a total of 42%%. Making a total of 42% mills. The Separate School rate for this year is 19.2 mills. Ves Another important matter dealt with by the council was the report given by Engineer A. E. James regarding the type of pavement to be used for payâ€" ing roadways in the east section of the town. Following his report, Mr. James was instructed to call for tenders as to the cost of construction of the difâ€" ferent pavements, and these to be subâ€" mitted at the next regular mectipg of the council. _ The council will then decide as to the streets to be paved and the paveâ€" ments to be put down. To avoid such charges, it is well to reark your parcels for Union of Sovâ€" iet Socialist Republics (Russia), Rouâ€" mania or Poland "TREAT AS ABANâ€" DONED" in the space provided for teh purpose on the customs declaration. Transportation also came up for disâ€" cussion, and in dealing with this the council decided to call a public meetâ€" ing on Wednesday evening, Sept. 9th, at 8.30 p.m., in the town gmll, for the purpose of a final discussion of the question previous to voting on the byâ€" law on the following Saturday, Sept. 12th. It is hoped all the citizens will attend this meeting. Weston Boys‘ Band, under the leadâ€" ership of Bandmaster Reeve G.

Do you know, I had to pinch frightâ€" fully to send my boys to college, but I managed. it." "Yes," replied Mrs. Smith, "but my husband‘s too afraid of the law to do anything like that." * Mayor Flynn was among the guests present and as a mark of esteem for his position as mayor of the town in which the Carl â€"Ostend Company had located, he was presented with a handâ€" some ivory clock, the design being an exact replicate of the Weston Town Hall. The ladies present were ulso remembered with a choice piece of ivory as a souvenir of the event. WESTON COUPLE _ WEDOE] 25 VRS. A unique opening in the form of an oldâ€"fashioned house warming _ started the wheels of industry at the Weston factory of the Carl Ostend Ivory facâ€" tory on Church St., a little over a week ago. The employees of the plant, together with the office staff and sevâ€" eral Weston friends gathered at the plant and after \a, welcome from the manager, enjoyed. music, cards and dancing to teh strains of an excellent fourâ€"piece orchestra. Among the prize winners for euchre were Mrs. Graham taking first for the ladies, and Mr. Douglas Webster, first for the gentleâ€" men. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Walker, 72 Queen‘s Drive, was the scene of a most happy gathering on Sunday, Aug. 30th, when about thirty relatives and friends assembled to celeâ€" brate with them twentyâ€"five years of married life. The banquet tables were tastefully arranged with flowers, formâ€" ing the centre decorations, and followâ€" ing the feast of good.things provided, the usual toasts were pFoposed and reâ€" sponded to. The guests of honor were Rev. Father Kelly and Rev. Father Johnston, of St. John‘s Church, Wesâ€" ton, and from out of town centres, Mrs. Walker‘s sister, Mrs. John Darew, of Stratford, and her two sons, also friends from Stratford and Toronto. During the afternoon and evening many friends called to offer congraâ€" tulations to the bride and groom of twentyâ€"five years, wishing for Mr. and Mrs. Walker happiness and prosperity for many years to come. : Mr. and Mrs. P. Walker, Honored by Friends on Wedding Anniversary MEMORIAL ART AT Mr. M. G. Wardell, of the Wardell‘s Monumental Works, informs us that, after a very successful meeting of the Memorial Craftsment of Ontario at their summer convention held at Lonâ€" don, he, along with a number of other delegates, crossed over to Cleveland where the National Memorial Craftsâ€" men of America were in convention and holding their annual exhibition of finished monuments. This was a most enjoyable as well as an educational feature of the trip. Never before was so large a number of beautiful monuâ€" ments on display. For the most part they consisted of the highly polished finish both die and base with beautiâ€" ful carvings. Others were of gray granite fine hammered and carved and for the most part low in design, with the height ranging from two to five feet. Extreme heights could not be set up above fifteen feet. Noticeable among these higher ones was a numâ€" ber of highly polished urn and. vase memorials with a height of nine feet and some three feet in diameter. They were all beautifully lined and were practically all oval. oâ€"45â€"1t Carl Ostend Factory Open Up In New Premises on § Church St. There is someone who misses you sadâ€" 1y, And finds the years long since you went; There is someone who thinks of you daily, And tries to be brave and content. It was peculiar to note that in the entire display there was only one exâ€" hibit of the rustic rock finish, which, perhaps, goes to show that this class of work is now looked upon as crude ond not suitable as a memorial to a life of high ideals and refinement. The value of the stones on exhibit was placed at one million dollars, and the largest exhibit there was that of the Vermont Marble Co., whose sales from the floor amounted to some $98,â€" 000. These memorials were all made from the celebrated Pitsford Valley Marble, This wonderful progress in memorial art is the outcome of the work of the association whose slogan has been, "Better designs, better materials, betâ€" ter craftsmanship." Working in closer coâ€"operation with the cemetery supâ€" erintendent they have endeavored to beautify with a solemn grandeur the burial places ef our loved ones, and have made the City of the Departed a place of uplifting inspirations rather than of downcasting memories. ther, _ who passedr away Aug. 81st, 1919. VORY FAGTORY â€"WHEELS TB In loving memory of our dear moâ€" HUSBAND & FAMILY IN MEMORIAM CLEVELAND, OHIO WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1925 On July 3rd, Hontar returned to Weston Post Office asking if _ his check had arrived from Ottawa. Miss Mattison assured ‘him it had | arrived, but refused to hand it over without proper identification. Hontar left the office returning in a short time with another man, and Miss Mattison, alâ€" though not personally acquainted with him, took it for granted he was one of the local or surrounding community foreign residents and accepted his ereâ€" dentials and identification of Hontar, passing out the cheque, Nothing more was heard of the incident until October when the district superintendent came out in connection with the case, and Miss Mattison learned the transaction had been a clever piece of forgery and she the victim. Great credit is due Miss Mattison in the capture of Hontar, as due to her accurate descripâ€" tion of the man given at this time, alâ€" though three months had elapsed he was traced and eventually located at Chicago, there arrested and his photo taken. Following this the chief of police visited Weston, placing on a table in front of Miss Mattison several photos and from these she immediately picked out the man, and this led to his deportation to Toronto. On Monâ€" day lTast Miss Mattison visited Toronto jail and identified the prisoner, picking him out from a number of men arâ€" raigned before heras the man who had secured the money more than a year ago. . 2 3 scy Sylvester Hontar made his first apâ€" pearance in Weston Fost Office on June 80th, 1924, presenting to Miss Mattison a post office savings account book under the name of Anise Wyona and claiming to be the personal owner of same, and also stating he wished to close out the same. The book shown by Hontar was the original book beâ€" longing to Wyona, which he had stolen at Sudbury, submitting for it another book in which to obtain he had made a $10.00 deposit at Sudbury P. O. then erased the original entry and subâ€" stituted with the amount credited in Wyona‘s book. This book he left in place of the stolen one. As Wyona was unable to write and his signature was covered with a mark, Miss Mattiâ€" son accepted the same signature from Hontar, making out his withdrawal slip and forwarding same to Ottawa. ons ons After hearing the evidence against him, Hontar was sent on for trial. The man known to the police as Sylvester Hontar, but calling himself Nkolj Cziy, appeared before the court on five charges of forgery and obtainâ€" ing money under false pretenses. A case heard in the city police court last week aroused considerable interest in town owing to its local setting, that of fraud and robbery put over a memâ€" ber of the Weston Post Office, Miss Olive Mattison. Last Wednesday was race day at Brampton, many of the Weston horses were to be seen on the track, and all made a good showing. The track was in excellent condition, and â€" J. Speers, official starter, worked hard at seeing every one got a square deal, and the general verdict by all was the same, each and all received a square deal, Following is the list of winners: WESTON HORSEa AT BRAMPTON 2.16 trot or paceâ€"â€" June Custer,.b.m., Briggs, Toâ€" Fouto cslsn i edel Jack Abbey, blk. g., Dr. Hysâ€" Top, Milton ......... y .. 2 2 H.
