followed some distance but were finally lost the police have been notified but so far no clue as to the whereabouts have been dis covered a matter that should be of im portance to the soldier element has been brought to our attention it appears that when the memorial gates were erected at the entrance to the park the name of john mcpherson was omitted from the list inscribed on the memorial table the omission may fcave been due to neglect of the relatives in not having his name sent in when the list was being made up in any event the omission is there and his father wm mcpherson wagon maker at ringivood at one time but now retired in toronto would receive some source of pleasure and satisfaction if his sons name could be added to the tablet soldier john mcpherson was the baggageman at the

albert and the other living in toronto at the last meeting of the munici pal council for the village of rich mond hill a matter under discussion for a long time was the numbering of the houses in the village we unj derstand of course that it is quite prudent to number the homes in a city or very large town but what object can there be in instituting this plan in a small place like richmond hill the inhabitants ot which are about equal in number to stouffville somewhere in the old testament we are told that qod brought a peste- lence among a certain people led by king david because he imprudently had his people numbered now numbering houses unnecessarily is akin to numbering the people and if this is correct those village fathers at the hill better towaro lest they bring
