strangers passing through also are accorded a resting place and a chance to wash up as they pass along through that town some such idea has frequently been suggested in stouffville and the town insti tute gave the matter serious consid eration some ten years ago it has frequently found that a private house may be suitably located and bought for this purpose if the institutes of stouffville and district ever embark on such a venture here that of purchasing a centrally located residence to be converted into institute quarters they would receive marvelous support from many people outside the member ship of the organization the stouff ville institutes have been greatly handicapped for years now because of lack of suitable quarters in which to meet xo place for the old grey mare it seems that even the church folk are turning their back on old dobbin who many years ago brought many of the present day officials to church and sunday school without the slightest hitch and minus punctures now the stouffville united church which has maintained the last haven for the horse is advertising the sheds for sale and the mbc opposite the school contemplate tearing down a large closed shed erected onlv in recent years and so the horse is about to lose his last town friend we know the old gray mare aint what she used to be but for the sake of fair play lets provide a winter haven for her in town somewhere business firms should be interested in the matter but perhaps it would not be amiss for the christian organizations to take the lead in the interest of fair play for man and beast the man who must drive the team and the animals too therell be winters yet when country folk will be glad to make use of the equine and there are always a few horses about every winter we are informed that the united church sheds or that part of them running north and south would be saved by the officials if sufficient encouragement was forthcoming to induce them to take the proper ac tion well the tribune herewith makes a donation of 10 to start the fund that would put into condition the shed across the western end of the property this fund should mount by other offers all for the sake of the
