think once again it becomes necessary to warn those driving cars through town for wedding parties to have 1 regard for the speed limit there is a great tendency on such occasions to do a bit of acting up such as was done a few days ago when a decorated car whizzed back and forth at an unsafe speed if those in charge of these cars would stop to consider what a terrible thing it would be to cause the death of some one while making merry in this way and thereby bring- sadness to the bride and groom and all the friends a little more care would be observed mr wellington lehman familiar figure on main street has been missing for several days since he is in the brierbush hospital suffer ing from an attack of pneumonia not too hopeful probably the oldest reader of this paper to renew their

of this paper who are spending the winter in the southern climate of the united states we report that stouffville enjoyed springlike weekend and this mon day following is even more like a spring day all the ice and snow is gone and it is hard to realize that we are only in the early stages of january however no one is being fooled into hanging up the snow shovel although we have no sympathty with the pessimist who says well pay for this our own prediction is that this will be one of the mildest winters in many years and that while we may have bitter zero weather with lots of snow to shovel the

agreed that such gatherings as the reeve had arrang ed were worthwhile and that seri ous consideration might well be given at this time to the future development of stouffville slow to admit gulping down money little bruce smith isnt so very fond of money that he would actu ally eat it but he did have a bit of change pass into his digestive sys tem nevertheless it happened when bruce needed a hair cut and set out for the barber shop with a good coin of the realm a 25c- piece like so many lads he considered a safe place to carry the price of his hair cut would be in his mouth but somehow the silver piece slipped from control and went the way of all tilings that get into a boys mouth that he likes bruce con tinued his journey to the clipper shop as though nothing had hap pened and perhaps it hadnt at that stage however after the shearing operation was over and the lad was dismounting from the chair he still was loath to admit the loss of the quarter and quietly informed the barber that his mother would call and settle the bill even at this stage the boy must have been hop ing that the indigestible coin would bounce out the way it got in its failure to do so plus pressure on the part of his parents to explain the whereabouts of the missing silver led to a complete confession bruce was hustled over to york county hospital at newmarket where the xray machine revealed the missing money lying on the floor of the lads stomach or some where in the lunch container of the youth which perhaps hasnt got a floor it was soon recovered by the use of a pump now bruce resolves never again to use his mouth as a purse and while he is none the worse for his experience with money other lads who learn of the affair can profit by the experi ence mr simeon hoover dickson hill when

a news item admitt ing that the smallest horse known was born in australia and even the smallest pony in toronto could not compare with the dimuniteness of tlie australian animal which weigh ed only 35 pounds at birth evident ly the toronto press has forgotten about little happy born on the wm morris farm at stouffville and which at birth weighed only 20 pounds little happy is still going strong and was in the prize ring at lindsay fair last fall now five years old that australian horse is a small animal said its owner mrs enid baker of sydney the smallest pony i have ever had a shetland anil when full grown should be only 30 inches tall there may be smaller ones around though commented mr r e whitewood proprietor of the largest riding school in toronto but toronto has not got one he admitted mr thompson said that a little fellow called sandy was their smallest but could not compete with the weeness of the australian shetland which is one of 20 minia ture ponies owned by mrs baker she said tlie legs of young horses and ponies never alter in length after they are born they straighten out and thicken but the length of the leg bones remains the same now that the matter has been dragged into the open and toronto admits it cannot compete with the australian pony for smallness it would seem that stouffville should become famous as the home of the smallest horse born on at least two continents little happy mr morris who boarded the animal for its tor onto owner tells us is a very proud stallion today with all the style and spirit of the race of hackneys to which it belongs
