low prices stouffville has been getting some free publicity over our out of date fire alarm system in these days when people expect to step out of their homes and find an alarm key on the post right at hand the old bell system is antiquated and we have to just take the remarks offer ed by the markham economist last week when it printed this rather crip comment it was reported that one man had torun a quarter of a mile in oraer to ring the fire bell why stouffville a place of fine homes and business places should tolerate such antique methods of raising an alarm is the cause of much comment reeve sanders is giving the matter attention right now and during his stay at county council went into the question with one or two firms making a specialty of fire fighting equipment while it is too fate in the year for the pre sent council to accomplish much the information will 1e of great value right after the now year when the council will be in a position to consider the matter seriously

towards bringing the dictator to true realization of his folly dr c charles burlingame cor rects an ancient misimpression and declares parents should not attempt to be pals with their children we know that many stouffville par ents will be shocked almost to the point of annoyance to read such a thing but the doctor is an eminent man his first reason arrests atten tion parents who do this remain forever juveniles themselves and it is far more important and necessary for the child to have mature parents to look up to and give them protec tion and security the difficulty brought on by skylarking parents who never grow up is that their children have pals but dont have parents dr burlingame finds that children are naturally good un til spoiled iby stupid adults with stupid ideas the truth is there i3 something finer than being pals which is not open to question a true sympathetic understanding be tween parent and child is one of the most beautiful achievements in life furniture

con sideration last year we had the treo with electric illumination in front of tho municipal hall but thore was no santa claus or gifts even so the tree we believe was worth putting up those wiho do not favor a community santa claus and gifts at the expense of tho mer chants argue that we have so many church concerts and school affairs with gifts handed out that there is too much overlapping granting this to bo correct we believe the tree should be put in place just the same it served to brighten up a dark spot over the christmas sea son and added to the christmasy spirit that should prevail at that time the municipal council might make themselves responsible for putting up the tree and stringing the lights which are now bought for the purpose the cost of a treo would be negligible tho small outlay being taken care of in this way more eas ily than having someone pass around the hat among the business places enquiry among the citizens gives tho writer the impression that they would like a tree placed at the municipal hall again this christmas try our christmas pantry goods thursday friday and saturday sugar white or brown 10 lbs 50c clover leaf salmon fancy pink
