Mr. C. A. Graham was present durâ€" ing the debate, on behalf of his brothâ€" er and warmly assured the Council that there would be no difficulty in the event that any efforts were put forth for the widening of the street, he was prepared to affirm that his brother would almost give such land as was needed, either now or later for The discussion was finally closed for the time being following on the sugâ€" gestion that the interested parties should get together and go into all the details of location, possibilities of the adaptability of the street for the deâ€" gired end and later report back to Council on the matter for a final Fuling.. . . _ . 7 Council, to speak on the subject, as the initiator of the street line byâ€"law and the advocate of the first attempt at zo@infl g of the Town which was ever tried@ out though not carried through to a successful issue. Not Good Business To Keep Changing & Exhisting Byâ€"laws Mr. Mertens in a most interesting manner outlined the whole history of the creation of residential area, and the work entailed in connection with the creation of residential areas, and Law. Reeve Farr, pointed out to the meeting that there were serious feaâ€" tures likely to follow on the persistent practice of ignoring and changing of the Town‘s byâ€"laws, which would ulâ€" timately lead to an abuse of such legâ€" iSl'%Pion‘l* ® PS 11 1 gor Dealing with the question of the use of tile pipe for interior drain work Deputy Reeve Webster reported that the revisions for the drainage byâ€"law were not yet satisfactorily completed, but suggested that permission may be accorded for certain works to proceed before frost sets in, so long as they complied with what would ultimately be the law. (The necessary authorizaâ€" tion was given to Engineer Marshall in this connection. An application on the part of Mr. M. L. Graham for the erection of a garage or car storage building on Elmsmere Avenue as creative of a great deal of discussion in the course of which points were brought out by Mr. Musson indicating the narrowness of the roadway, as being non adaptâ€" able for the free operation of cars. He: further pointed out that the street had for years been considered as\‘a resiâ€" dential one, declaring in support of his remark that there were homes on the street that had been built for over 70 years, and perhaps longer. The effect of the evrection of such a buildâ€" ing would it was felt have somewhat of a deteriorating effect on the propâ€" erty generally. R The Toronto Transportation Comâ€" mission forwarded the annual report of operations of the Weston Road car line, and also that for the past month of August, in connection with the latâ€" ter pointing out that this was the best months operation that had been exâ€" perienced on the line since inception some four years ago. The comparaâ€" tive figures for the year 1928, were $1312.26 as against the increased revâ€" enue of this year of $2,154.76. The report was considered by the Council to be most gratifying. Local Improvement Works Authorized And Contracts Let Tenders for the construction of sideâ€" walks on John Street were opened and after some debate on the character of the work of certain contractors which was ultimately ruled out of discussion the contract for this particular work was awarded to J. Sartell at a cost of $408. The next lowest tender being that of Mr. Hoover at $440.80. F In the course of the debate relative to the question whether the area was or not a residential area, Mr. F. W. Mertens sought the permission of the A report was tendered in connection Withrgge recent application «for the creation of a cleaning and drying plant in the old ‘world‘ building, from which it transpired that the increased rates incidental for fire insurance were considered as an indication that the business would not be considered as locating in that premises. Some discussion took place in regard to the deeds for the Cruickshanks Park, but no action was taken until such time as the revised deeds have been received from the Town‘s soliciâ€" tor, Mr. Gray. Perpmwsion was acâ€" corded to the Consumers‘ Gas Comâ€" pany, in regard to the installation of a service on Main Street. The matter of increased salaries for certain of the Town‘s employees was deferred pending the report of members of the Works‘ Department and the Finance Committee. o A communication was received from the C. P. R., relative to the nuisance of engine whistling, intimating that evâ€" ery fiort would be extended to miniâ€" mize the trouble as far as lay within their power, without actually running counter to the legislation which calls for engineers to signify their approach to all crossings.

There was considerable business of a routine character transacted and several communications were reported one from the Separate School Board relative to the nursing services in the schools of the district and enclosing their grant from that body to the supâ€" porting fund of the service. _ _ The Council of the Town of Wesâ€" ton assembled in the Town Hall for their regular meeting on Monday eveâ€" ning last, being presided over _ by Reeve Ellerby Farr, in the absence of Mayor A.

Phone 26 VOLUME 30, NUMBER 49 The home of Mr. Allan Waterson was the scene of a marriage cereâ€" mony celebrated under rather unique cireumstances on Monday night this week. His brother, Mr. E. D. Waterâ€" son had made all arrangements to be married elsewhere that night but in the afternoon was unfortunately inâ€" jured by an auto while attending to his duties in the city. After hospital attention he was taken to the home of his brother on Scarlett Road. The bride, Miss Marion Winnifred Hook of Mount Dennis was brought to the same place, the minister, Rev. G. Ernâ€" est Forbes was sent for and the marâ€" riage took place on schedule time. Unâ€" der the cireumstances the bride and groom could not well avoid the heavy showers of confetti poured upon them by well wishing friends and all united in wishing Mr. and Mrs. Waterson a long and happy married life. such widening. The building would be of sheet metal, there would be no celâ€" lar foundation, so that all that would be necessary should be the cutting away of some many feet of the buildâ€" ing at small cost. This phase of the question will be considered by the special meeting. ‘"My wife never listens to me," comâ€" plained a newly married man. "Don‘t let that worry you, man," said the older one. "Mine did once and I got it in the neck." ‘"How was that?" "I was talking in my sleep." A very bright future would seem to be in store for this group of artists judging from the reception which they received" at this their first group apâ€" pearance. The report on the construction of the new Town‘s sewer system as tendâ€" ered by â€"Mr. Redfern was most inâ€" structive and amongst other features disclosed that the work was anticiâ€" pated to be finished within the next two months, that the total cost of the construction would amount to about $115,000. .Some discussion arose in regard to the amount of timber that had been used in some sections of the work, but Mr. Redfern pointed out to the satisfaction of Council that this was an unavoidable feature which had to.be followed in the best interests of safeguarding the property of the Town and citizens from future trouble which he felt would otherwise have followed in the train of the operations had the timber not been left in the cuts, parâ€" ticularly where quicksand had been encountered. Reeve Farr tendered a vote of thanks to Mr. Redfern for his report, and suggested that a more concise reâ€" view with a possible inspection of the work by members of Council may be taken when the work was complete. GROOM INJURED IN ACCIDENT BUT MARRIAGE IS PERFORMED In the absence of W. H. Ketcheson, Bariton, owing to a severe cold, Mr. Ray Williams sang several numbers, and quite capably displayed his talâ€" ents. The humour of the evening was supâ€" plied by Miss Maud Cooper, Elocutionâ€" ist, who displayed herself as an artist of the first rank. Another interesting meeting of the organization is being anticipated, when, on November 13th, Dr. Loland, convenor of adult education, will be " The violinist, Miss Roberta Emberâ€" son was quite unique in style of perâ€" formance and. was enthusiastically reâ€" ceived by the large audience.

Memorial Home and School Assoâ€" ciation at their regular meeting on Wednesday evening last had the priâ€" vilege of hearing Judge Mott who spoke on parental responsibility to the youth of the present day. His adâ€" dress was intensely interesting and the large audience listened most atâ€" tentively to his remarks. He said that education should fit a child into life and not for life and stressed characâ€" ter building as one of the greatest essentials in child training. Everyâ€" thing around the home should be conâ€" ’structive, and chief amongst the home ‘advantages should be good literature, good music, and good art. Judge Mott believes the study of the individual to be most interesting and he related several instances of his own experiâ€" ence with children to illustrate his point which showed his own keen unâ€" derstanding of human nature. Present Piano to Board. . On behalf of the association, the president, Mrs. Meaden, presented a piano to the Board of Education and Mr, J, A. Livingston, chairman of the Board, warmly thanked the members for their gift and for their splendid efforts on behalf of the school work. Refreshments were served the memâ€" bers were given an opportunity of meeting Judge Mott. t The Weston Concert Party . gave their First Annual Concert to a capâ€" acity audience here last Thursday evening in the Town Hall. An exâ€" cellent musical programme was rendâ€" ered. Frederick M. Pallett, pianist, openâ€" ed the concert with God Save The King in his usual bright style;â€" and solo work for the evening did him great credit. .‘ . . 3 First Annual Public Appearance Of Local Concert Party Well Received FINE PROGRAMME BY CONGERT PARTY Home And School Club Presents Piano to Board of Education At Regular Meeting MEMORIAL ASSOG.

"So," said the Doctor, "you will realize with me that the old world is improvâ€" ing in spite of Drury, in spite of this hardened old humbug." He made passâ€" ing reference to the ‘last awful night‘ episode, and remarked on the fact that notwithstanding the disclosures that the Hon. Mr. Drury had still mainâ€" tained the associates in default on his cabinet. Now in the light of that past record he saw fit to ally himself with the Liberals in the fight against the Liquor situation, "but notwithstanding this assistance I venture to assert that the Liberals will suffer a crushing deâ€" feat at the next election at the hands of Mr, Ferguson." Variable Policies of The Liberal Party Leaders He touched on the variable policies as expounded in different parts of the province by the Hon. Mr. Sinclair and members of his party as he comâ€" pared the oneness of declaration by all members of the Ferguson Government, with no hesitation, no wobbling or edging the question on whatever subâ€" ject was raised in any part of the Proâ€" vince. All over the Province these foolish tactics of the Liberals are beâ€" ing pursued, declared Dr. Godfrey, but the public will not be hoodwinked or led astray. "They have always pursued something of the type," said the Docâ€" tor. "Let me remind of the days when the Buffalo product of bologna was exhibited in the windows down town with properly adjusted price marks, as one of the features bolstering up the reciprocity aims of the Liberals, and now we have their stunt with the bottles. And talking of bottles, I should tell you of the experience of the Richmond Hill man who went out to see what he could find, and he loâ€" cated some two dozen milk bottles, eviâ€" The Hon. Dr. Godfrey made menâ€" tion of the Woodbridge Fair, and intiâ€" mated that with this in mind, while he had come prepared to tender a lengthy address he would not inflict it on the gathering this time. "There is however, but one feature which we have to consider in this campaign, the question of Liquor." Enlarging. on this phase of the contest he mentioned the Hon. E. C. Drury, as « ‘our old friends‘,â€"‘that incomparable humbug‘ "who was so full of zeal in his ef.â€" forts to oust the Ferguson Governâ€" ment that he forgets to be fair in his treatment of this question.‘" Proceedâ€" ing he stated that Mr. Drury had evâ€" en declared from press reports that he was prepared to even have the bar reintroduced if such. would consumâ€" gl:illt_e the end of the Ferguson downâ€" all. Rising amidst the tumultuous apâ€" plause of the audience which by this time not only filled the hall but overâ€" flowed out into the hallways the Hon. Dr. Godfrey declared, "I would be a cold blooded proposition, which I am not, if I did not at once acknowledge my appreciation of this wonderful honâ€" our which you have bestowed by acâ€" cording me the eighth nomination to represent this great and historic old Tory riding of West York. It gives me an incentive like that of Premier MacDonald of Great Britain, to look to the future and not worry about the past." But One Feature To Consider The Liquor. Question Proceeding he passed some jocular comment on the close running of himâ€" self and the Hon. G. Howard Ferguâ€" son in the political race; touched briefâ€" ly on the administration of his office, which he termed as being of a non partizan character dealing with the ills and ailments of all irrespective of their leaning, and elicited a laugh, when he declared ‘the same cures apâ€" ply to all." Promptly Mr. R. J. Flynn, exâ€"Mayor of the Town of Weston, past president of the Weston Conservative Associaâ€" tion rose to nominate the Hon. Dr. Forbes Godfrey, which he did, backed by a touching tribute to the worthâ€" while attributes of the past repreâ€" sentative and all that he had stood for in the number of years he had served the riding and the Province. The Nomination was seconded by warden, and Reeve of Etobicoke, J. Ray Price, who also spoke in highly complimentary terms, almost immedâ€" iately a motion carried to close nominâ€" ations and amidst the uproarous cheerâ€" ing of the assembly, President Staunâ€" ton declared the Hon. Dr. Godfrey the accepted candidate of the convention. Following on the reading of the minutes of previous meetings of the association, a letter of regret for inâ€" ability to be present from J. Earl Lawson, Federal Member for the Ridâ€" ing and from Past President, Harry I. Price, with a few introductory words, President Staunton called for nominaâ€" tions of those to represent the ridâ€" ing, as standard bearer for the party in the historic riding in the forthcomâ€" ing election. The great West York Conservative Nomination. Convention. m o re than measured up to the expectations of the Executive Committee, who at the last minute decided to change the venue of the gathering from the hisâ€" toric Weston Town Hall to the more spacious modern building, the High and Vocational Collegiate, pride of the Town of Weston. There were well on to some 800 delegates, representing all parts of the riding assembled, when President T. M. Staunton of the West York Provincial Association, with Secâ€" retary, Mrs. Margaret Scott stepped onto the platform and declared the meeting open, with a call for the Naâ€" 1(;iionaal Anthem, which was lustily renâ€" ered.

Cornelius, entertainer, and _ Stan Brunskill and his Rythemâ€"Stumpers. There was a goodly crowd, which spoke spoke well for Weston‘s taste in musical artistry. Closing his remarks with a definâ€" ite assertion that there was not the possibility of locating any wrongful dispensation of the funds in the whole of the six years of administration, he referred to the Drury administration and the debt they left the province to face, he made a strong appeal to the delegates not to assume victory but to impress the electors with the need for one and all to cast their vote and extend every effort to roll up the usâ€" ual majority for the Conservative canâ€" didate, which in this case happens to be me," he concluded to _ rousing cheers. â€" tion. dently an instance of some peculiarity of trade competition," he remarked amidst great laughter in the audience. Prior to the close of the session resâ€" olution were introduced and unaniâ€" mously passed according confidence in the Ferguson administration, pledging support to the Hon.

Mayor Coulter, who is auditor of the Canadâ€" ian National Steamship and Car Ferâ€" ries, was Viceâ€"president of the Assoâ€" ciation last year and his fellow memâ€" bers have indeed made a wise choice in electing him to head their organiâ€" zation for the coming year. His past experience in this work and his naturâ€" al ability fits him well for his posiâ€" tion. The Mayor, with Mrs. Coulter, who accompanied him on the trip, will reâ€" turn to town this week. This experience is not forgotten amongst the older â€" residents of his home town, who he states tendered him a warm reception on his visit which was most enjoyable in every. respect, being spent in visiting many relatives and past associates in many of the earlier ventures of his life. Mr. and Mrs. McLean, were for sevâ€" eral years interested in the municipal life of Midland, during their residence in that municipality.

According to reports from local police, motorists are constantly using the Main Street of Weston as a speedway and the authorities are beâ€" ing kept busy apprehending the ofâ€" fenders. The seriousness of this ofâ€" fense cannot be too greatly stressed as it not only presents a grave danâ€" ger to human lives, but is is also provâ€" ing a serious detriment to a lawâ€" abiding community. e 5e A. startling fact was disclosed yestâ€" erday when it was learned that well over a dozen offenders had often been caught exceeding the speed limit through the main street of the town, within less than two hours. The whole of the various courses are delivered with a due regard to the fact that a great number of the reâ€" cruits are engaged through the day and must necessarily be of a character not too intensive or tiring, but delivered in a manner that will enjoin the ready acceptance of the teachings which it is desired to inculcate. Throughout the whole study a spirit of friendly rivalry is maintained, competitions are operated and the work made as honestâ€" ly entertaining as it is possible, so that the knowledge is readily assimuâ€" lated by one and all. The ‘Yorks‘ are very interested in sports and would be quite pleased to adopt any athletes, either individuals or organized teams, baseball, softball, hockey, running, lacrosse or any other line. Coloured sweaters will be proâ€" videded. Many Motorists Exceeding Speed Limit Through Town Of Weston Organization of militia units and the administration of such is also a very interesting course, for the lessons deâ€" rived from such are of a character that they may be successfully applied to many features of civil life and builds up a knowledge of the efficiency in militia affairs as well as in the commercial and private life. The study of the Tactics course is conâ€" sidered by many students as very inâ€" teresting, and instructive, as well as being an undoubted brain stimulator. The law course is one that is of inâ€" terest to all students in its treatment of the life and conditions of the civâ€" ilian soldier and teaches the ordinary citizen much that would otherwise not be appreciated by those who do not take the course.. The drill courses are more or less self explanatory, in that the recruit is put through a course of training in physical exercises which leaves no doubt in the minds of all that they are wonderfully beneficial in every respect. Apart from the beneâ€" fits derived from the exercises, memâ€" bers acquire a ready habit of carryâ€" ing themselves in a smart and upright manner which in itself is conducive to health and brings its own reward for the time spent. _ . For the present and until headquarâ€" ters are definitely established in the Town, which is the ultimate intention, recuits and all others interested are requested to get in touch with Lieut. Geo. R. Headon at the local headquarâ€" ters 1283 Jane Street, at the junction of Weston Road. Phone Weston 872â€"J. The ‘Yorks‘ are very interested in sports and would be quite pleased to adopt any athletes, either individuals ThE YORK RANGERS N THER 1 An â€" Outline of the Various Courses to the Recruits for the Historic Regiment The officers of the York Rangers believe that in coming to the Town of Weston for the purpose of organizing their Signal Corps and the 2nd Platoon of this historic old York County Regiâ€" ment, they are more or less entering on what may be termed virgin soil, which should prove very fertile. However, this entry into the Town, by the Regiment, is not to be taken in the light of engendering a spirit of warlike effort of preparation, but as a mission of organized study and play for those who wish to embrace the several courses which are offered. True, being a Militia Unit, the angle of soldiery cannot be completely forâ€" gotten, but may most certainly be made a secondary consideration, for ceremonial purposes, for there are many interesting phases of study quite apart from the martial instruction.. The study of Topography is a most interesting course, and takes the form of lectures and demonstrations in Map Reading, Aerial Photo reading and Field Sketching. The recruit is taught to know a map, how to use it as his guide, pick out the distinctive features of the country, valleys, woods, and rivers, how to distinguish the various types of buildings thereon, and as the course proceeds enters into the newâ€" est of studies that of aerial photoâ€" graphy as used in the modern system of map construction and now adopted all over the world. It is a particularâ€" ly interesting phase of the regimental teaching. _ _ Eaann 8 g Some of the most interesting of these subjects, musketry, the study of land topography, organization, militia law, tactics and drills both military and physical. In the musketry course, lectures are given on the care, conâ€" struction, cleaning and proper use of firearms, including the rifle and the Lewis machine gun. Practices are arâ€" ranged on both indoor and outdoor ranges, and the recruit is taught to become familiar with firearms, their dangers and uses, with a particular and keen attention being devoted to the observance of all safety measures. ‘They realize in the very warmest manner that this ancient Town measâ€" ured well with the rest of the municiâ€" palities of the Dominion in furnishing its quota of youth and members of the fighting corps of the Nation in the Great War, a fact in the Town‘s hisâ€" tory that will go down with its anâ€" nals as a worél while effort to the Empire‘s good and welfare, in accord with the other municipalities. USING MAIN STREET AS A SPEEDWAY MG Shortly after five o‘clock on Monday evening, sevenâ€"yearâ€"old Douglas Daâ€" vidson, of Mahoney, Avenue, â€"Mount Dennis, was struck by a motor car driven by Harry Simpson of John Street, Weston, and was taken to the Western Hospital, Tea was poured in the pretty dinâ€" ing room which was very tastefully decorated for the occasion with yellow flowers and autumn leaves, by Mrs. Taylor, Hon.

There was a full attendance of the members with their \ wives and also many friends, and a most enjoyable evenâ€" ing was spent. Mrs. Marion Russell Demorest was pianist of the evening and Mrs. Wilmott sang several wellâ€" rendered selections. Mr. John Love exâ€" tended a welcome to the ladies while Mr.â€"L. J.

Mrs. Buchanan, wife of the Districk Governor, made a very fine appeal to the ladies for their coâ€"operation in doâ€" ing some active work in connection with Rotary. She related how the Toâ€" ronto Club, through their ladies‘ orâ€" ganization, had supplied some one hundred and thirty layettes to needy families. She told of the work that was being carried on by the Peterâ€" boro, Kitchener, Guelph, and other Clubs along this line. The Governor, Charlie Buchanan, after being introduced made a very fine explanation of Rotary. He. told of the work that is being done in this, the 27th District of Rotary, covâ€" ering Ontario and the Northern part of New York State. He pointed out that conditions of the different clubs called for the different types of work. Therefore, no two clubs are identical. Some engage in work with the underâ€" privileged boys, others with subâ€"norâ€" mal, others . with cripple : children.
