Before anythinf:_:g is done with the road the Council shéuld see that all necesâ€" sary work that would cause the road to be torn up, put in order at as early. a date as possible. } _ Every day brings us nearer the completion of f;i;he waterworks system, brings before us the necessity of a thoroughly 01'ganized Fire Brigade, volunteer at present ; if a fire took place in the %’illage we are not in a position to combat its disastrous ef fects. Some @ompetent person should be appointed chief, then no doubt, the young men in the village would. get out and practice, we would then. be at least partially prepared to fightl a fire systematically . Weston is growing at such a rate ’that the citizensi will find it difficu‘t ]‘in the near futur§ to find a breathing space, the coun??l should take time by the forelock;{g and secure ample grounds to maké a public park that could be used fora general recreation ground and a.thl;gi;ic field . The Fair‘ ground is aunahi}ral park and should be owned by thefi?illage, but as these grounds are owxiéd and operated by a private’corporaquon they are not availâ€" able for park @f)urposes. Some arâ€" rangement might be made with the Fair board whqi?eby the citizens could have the use of the grounds for the best part of the year, and only closed to the public when the Fair is in operâ€" ation .

J Savageâ€"McClure. California has long since been known as the home of expert basket weavers, but like those of other nations, are fast dimfnishing. _ The Indian was the ’ 4) type of quiet, contented, peaceful § simplicity, not thgt he never went bo | war, but he preferred to take life easy, € ! enjoying his simp‘.‘:e pleasu'res, religious 1 dances, and destroying his enemiesby f !tres@'bherous assassination rather than §J by bmen wartare. _ 3 BA & Paskets are male by hard twigs~ 4 willows, red bud, sweet and> white: â€"‘ grass, pine root, wartynia, fern stalk, ' K&i yacca, tulle root, rattan, fibre cacti, | | squaw weed, cedm: bark, spruce root, 5 § |bamboo, palm steg"_ms, split oster and‘ rhus, bullrush, raffia, swanmap ash, vine | + ’ maple, corn husks, hemp, fir and hemâ€" | t‘(_a lock, kah hoom, cat tail and reed. | Don‘t spend hall your time telling what you are going to do and the other half in explaining why you didn‘t do it. E It sometimes happens that a young man does not know he is in love with a girl until she hands him the inforâ€" mation. & do." Like my mothe’r;~ have a great fondâ€" oâ€"ss for pretty bagkets, and haviag an opportunity to study the subject, as well as the practical work of weaving, am enjoying the same. A lady missionaxfy was asked if she l encouraged the Indians in their basket work? Her reply was, "no indeed ! ’only in christian work.‘""‘ Then ano ther reason for the decadence is merâ€" cenary. A basket takes weeks, some months to make, if sells for a few or. many dollars. Ope dollar will buy: several tin, copper or brass utensils, that will serve all practical purposes, ‘ even better than the baskets them-é selves, besides so much time being | saved. ( There are many ffbeaubiful and valuâ€" able collections here in private homes t and in Pasadena. _ Coiled baskets gre in the greatest variety of shapes, fl'fiom a table mat to an exquisite jar, The coiled work is shown in an endlesg variety of intuicate patterns. In the upright weaves the plain twine stitching is used by differâ€" ent tribes, the most primitive There are specimens so delicately made they could be passed through a finger ring, and others large as n flour barrel and larger. _ : Baskets were and are made in every conceivable design.â€" The Po no Bamâ€" Tush weave is begutiful. _ Buckskin strands, beads, feathers, shells and wampurm are used in interweaving. Dye is made of roots, bark, berries, etc., every coloufg has its meaning. The havaho colours are black, white, reddish brown, and; likewise with their blankets. § government may;'tell against him in the convention. _ It is also rumotf?red that South York will be reconstructed and that there will be a tusslef‘for the nomination between the sittijfng members for both South and East York, both rumours look as though there will be an carly election. J During the past summer forest fires have been devouring the growth of centuries with ruthless rapacity. Norâ€" thern Ontario, Manitoba, and British Colnmbia have sufferel most. Fine tracts of merq!lantable timber worth millions of doliéars have been destroyâ€" ed, square mifie upon square mile of young growth coming on to supply the demands of the fature has been wiped out of existence. In Northern Ontario, where but a thin layer of vegetable m»uld covers the rocks, the soft, oozy forést floor, the only hope of vegetation é,nd equable stream flow has been comipletely destroyed, leayâ€" ing a cheel’lesé rocky waste for geneâ€" rations to comé. Even if no thought be given to the number of lives 108t, it must be admitted that the loss ocâ€" casioned by forest fires has been nothâ€" ing short of appalling.
