The meeting was very poorly attended. Surely the Horticultural Society with its record of splendid work in the village for a number of years could have had the support and inter- est of the ratepayers at its 'annual meeting and Mr. Clark’s lecture was so well worth hearing. Those, who did not attend were the losers of something the village does not have every day. NEWTONVILLE Mrs. I task in and family spent Sun- day with her mother at Garden Hill.

'A tremendous crowd patronized the school ice rink last. week but tin zero weather, oil Monday evening last, "caused a let-up-on attendance;, “Entile Tom’s Cabin”.i-s still tin the boards, and how it; used to draw at the old town lial'l here years ago. The chances are it will be going as long as time'will last. If you have not your 19138 • license ,plates you had better do so as you may be pounced on any minute by an officer of the law. iSo j don’t .say we didn’t warn you. Rev, Mr. 'Ban,inter, minister of St. Paul’s United â- Church, began a ser- ies df sermons on the “creation of the world1” on- 'Sunday morning 'last be- ginning with the first chapter of Genesis. Curling was o-nce upon a time a great winter game in this town, not only among iScottish people but others as well. Why not bring it to the fore again as in the good old days of the mill pond. Mr. Harry Allin, the King Street, Grocer, is still confined to his room, (but I?’ on. the mend. A broken bone doe- hurry, but takes its time no mat- ter how impatient we may be. Bo go easy old sport. Our old friend John Watson has been somewhat under the weather this; winter with a bad or good cold, which would you cal' it. hut. is on the mend. You can not down tine of the old stock with a eoimnon -etild. This was to be a mild winter but a touch of 6 below zero and 8 or 10 above -with a good cold east wind makes it hard to place much reliance on our weather prophets. iSo far, in most localities, it has been Ane of the old timers, Taylor is advertising his Whitby ice rink on Wednesday and Sarurday nights for skating. One might he able to thumb a ride up but otherwise the walking may not be so good'and New- castle is much nearer if you wish for that sport. What would our friend Orme do if s'jvirt games were aboli si n;d ?. The chances are he would become a cave dweller. He is now on the warpath with his midget warriors. Whoop her up boys and girls or is ; it liable to be one or the other nowadays. ; In reference to cars stolen in this and other neighborhoods, [We have. is, ivery bobs'” are do their oronto of held from the first that in tlie West when horse stealing and cattl-e rust- ling was prevalent) there wais : one course that stopped1 it and chat : wa • the nearest tree or telegraph post.

The old “ once more brought but and hit in the line of hauling farm' fodder and other tilings necessary to farm work, but. we mass ; the fast horses and cutter outfits. Nothing so far has; taken its place. We notice the death An T Miss Clara Windatt, formerly of this town. 'Mfesi Windatit was a | daughter of the late Richard Windat who for over 401 years was clerk of this muni- cipality and for a time clerk of Dar- ling-ton. Two brothers, are all that are left ,of this much respected fam- ily of old: ci tizens. We notice an extra street,• light is asked for at ITarry Allen’s corner. Well, if there is one place in town where a traffic cop should be it is at this corner at the noon hour. The chances taken there are risky with so many students and 'Goodyear work- men,. to sav nothing about motor ears on No. 2 Highway passing through. It is said that radio licenses will be higher this year. Well, perhaps so, It generally works out that way after you get the thing going, but what we get over the radio nowadays, as a, rule,-patrons should be handed out a rebate instead df fifty per cent, added to the privilege of having one, $2.00 is enough for what iff given or received. The different churches in town are doing inventory work this week tak- ing stock of assets- and liabilities. It strikes us that a good many families in town should do the same as: re- gards their responsibilities so far as their younsters are concerned, they spend too mfueh time on tie streets, too little of 'Sunday observance, and too much of being: seen and heard so far as the household iff concerned. In- pioneer days it was just, the opposite, the heads of the family ran the es- tablishments.
