when you are in stiver bros stousfville ovt phone 4301 another haven for horses gone the last section of the christian church sheds to remain on the original site at the rear of the church at the corner of main and stouffer street was removed last week to the farm of arthur dows- well near goodwood itis probably a year or two since a horse stood under the roof of this shed which had done service there for over seventy years since the sheds were built at the time the church was erected in 1874 the scribe questioned old timers on this matter and they were of the opinion that the sheds were put up when the present brick edifice was built to replace the first church which was of frame construction later we located a photograph of the building taken shortly after it was built and it showed tthe l shaped sheds in olace indicating that in thefee early days ashed for the horses was deemed quite as necessary as a roof on the church almost mr dowswell with a num ber of men jacked up the building in two or three hours and when made ready hauled it home behind a tractor in less than an hour it will make a splendid implement shed- the place where the sheds stood now offers itself as a good building lot for someone if the church were disposed to part with tbeland better than parting with tr- property we suggest that a clump of trees be planted immedi ately tt i would offer protection from the north winds while such a background would greatlyim- prove the appearance of the church edifice with the removal of these sheds the few places that can be considered a haven for horses in town in time of storm are fast dis appearing only remaining sheds left forthese animals are the men- nonite covered shed near the christian church and the united church shed on church street likethe old tiepost sheds are fast disappearing not only in town but throughout the countryside pishing season to open earlier their minds turned to rod and reel by the unusual warmth of the spring ontario fishermen got official confirmation of their optim ism when g h dunbar minister of game and fisheries announced the speckled trout season will open april 14 and the pickerel season may 5th saturdays and tuesday dates in advance of previous years it is apparent said mr dunbar there will be normal speckled trout angling much earlier this year and indications too that pickerel will be off the spawning beds well in advance of may 5th with these forecasts in mind the department advanced open dates in each case open now is the perch season and it was predicted that if the weather holds lake trout will be taking april 14th a monh ahead of the normal date anglers getting ready for their sixth wartime season were confronted with warshortages of rods and reels and other tackle the

whose husband was a well known stoife mason and one time constable in uxbridge what you find in a cemetery last- sunday afternoon the scribe had occasion to be in the cemetery grounds at altona where stands the altona brick meeting house of the mennonite group and where after discontinuing regular services back in 1919 the members nvere trans- fered to the wideman church itis not clear jusfc when the first men nonite families settled around al tona but it is likely they came first shortly after the turn of the last century or about 1803 or 1805 the first stoufiers came to stouffville in 1804 as we wandered through the sacred grounds on sunday we were interested in the simple state ments or inscriptions on the stones which bore nothingjbut the names and ages of those interred there one of the oldest stones we saw was erected for two children of a pioneer family jacob and anne lehman the son samuel died in 1841 and a daughter elizabeth in 1844 just a little over a hundred years ago

passed away at the age of 61 in 1862 john monkhouse early history informs us came from cumberland england a fact ho was always proud of the pre sent brick church on the property was built in 1852 and
