Have yOu noticed the window decor- ations ot J. D. Lee, John St., one ot our enterprising merchants? The baskets of luscious yellow oranges in their dark setting resting op a ground work ot yellow paper; nuts, one of the things essential to Htgllowe'en Ms- tivities, scattered around waiting for the witches to gather; a little fore- thought and work comhined does much to add to the appearance of store windows and helps in the bring- ing ot our town to the front. Last Wednesday and Thursday a large number of the young men ot the town and community availed themselves_of the opportunity of ap- pearing before the military board. Captain Bryan and Dr. Meldrum were, the medical examiners, the ciericai work being done by Audrey Robinson,’ Scott Galbraith and R. Sproule. A large percentage of the men were, marked A-2. The board went trom Weston to Woodbridge for Friday and Saturday. At the last meeting of the directors of the Horticultural Society the three most active otricers, viz., the president, treasurer and secretary, all expressed their desire to be relieved of the du- ties of their respective offices. Their opinion was that new blood would materially help in advancing the suc- cess of,the society. The electing of new men to take the places of the present officers should not be difficult in a community possessing so many capable persons as Weston, especially in a, society having nearly 200 mem- bers of our very best citizens. " The Weston post office has refitted each of the boxes with a combination lock, which is the most approved and up-to-date system tor handling mail. It does away with the business of pro- viding more than one key for the fam- ily, forgetting or loosing it or leaving it in your other pocket. Each box has its own separate combination, no two boxes having the same. Operation is simple and easy.q You turn the point to a certain number then turn the di- al to its respective C number, which gives you the necessary combination for opening your box. The telephone was installed some time ago for the use of the public, but owing to the abuse of this privilege it has been found necessary to curtail the hours of answering the phone on account of the. severe handicap it is to the fixing of mail and delivery of same. So will the people kindly remember that no phone enquiries tor mail will be an- swered before the hour of 9.30 an). and after? 4 o'clock p.m. The committee in charge u; the ture and adjourned to meet agam uu Xmas comforts for the boys of the, Thursday, November 15, at 8 p.m., Methodist Church who are overseas when it is hoped that as many as pos- met on Monday night and packed a) sible of the persons interested will at- number of boxes.
