CO. § Polishers, buffers and grinders of Canada Cycle Co. are still on strike. â€"_"Theâ€"men feel that they gre justified in refusing a cut of 15c per hour in _wages. The men stated that they _ weould not accept a lower rate â€"of __ewages from this.company than what â€" sother firms in Toronto are paying, and the men feel that it is not jusâ€" . tice on the part of this company to _ expeet the men to do so.. ‘Viceâ€"Presiâ€" â€"â€" dent Jas. Daar stated to the heads of _ ‘the firm that he did not know of a _ iwfirm either in United States or the . Dominionâ€"of Canada in the last two «or three years that had attempted to â€" ireduce their men‘s wages. While the ‘price of their living was as high if not x Dbigher. than at any â€"other â€"time.~Your . firm is the first that has come to my motice.. The men â€"stated that it was a shame to see menâ€" who. had done service in France walking up and _ down on picket while foreigners are working in their places.. Let us ask, Is this the way to use our men when they return? . Do you feel thatyou ‘‘ would like to have your â€"boys After they return from the front to submit ‘ to a reduction in their wages, and if they did not submit to it to have theit places filled by foreigners.â€" This is | what has taken place at the Canada «Cycle & Motor Co. of, Weston,. & Endorsed for publication. @ _. On Tuesday evening the car that arâ€" wived at Sunnyside at 6 o‘clock carried four passengers on the front fender of the car and eight were hanging upon the back fender. ~Why is this permitâ€" ‘ted? Does the Railway Board allow such conditions to prevail. They cerâ€" tainly do not. If this resulted in an acceident the company are liable. They have no right to carry passengers in this way. Â¥Yet the company should be compelled to give these peopke proper fransportation. At 6 â€"o‘clock more ears should be sent out to bring these men into the city and to take those working in the city out. It is a comâ€" mon occurrence to see people riding ipon the fenders of theseâ€"cars. It is ;‘fip to the company to place.more cars «on the line. f & aren beionging to Miss Helen Cleet‘s ‘Club. This club meets the last PEriâ€" day of the morlth to ’bring inâ€" their money and spond a social hour togeâ€" ?Eher. The children are aiming to get enough money to feed a Belgian child for a year, which costs $44.40. _ ‘ _The road commissioner should durâ€" ing the summer force the removal of all the iron pipe culvyerts on â€" Main Street,. It is these that cause all the mwater to lay on Main Street toâ€"day. During the fall they become blocked with leaves and mud.. This freezes and in the spring the water backs up. If the ditch was kept clear the water would run to the catch basin ‘and thus keep our streets free from waâ€" ter.". ‘The Toronto Suburban Railway Co. are certainly on the job these days. Men are out here seeing that the water is drained off their tracks. This 4s something for which they are to be wcommended. Yet ‘if they can spare the men now, Awhy can‘t â€"they doâ€" it later on in the year? No doubt they wealize that if they ard to maintain theix serv:ce at all this is necessary. s Jt is in the good bright summer days that these changes â€"should be made. No doubt the commissioner will have a lot of opposition if he does this. Â¥et it is for the good of the comâ€" munity that such be done. colle Are you interested in building up your own town? Many men just exâ€" dst in Weston. That is, they sleep here and that is all the interest they bave in the place. Yet by your coâ€" wperation the town might be so deâ€" meloped as to become the most ideal place to live in. The man who lives a@n his home town has a great interâ€" est in its development. He is willing to lend his energies and abilities for its further development. In doing this he incidentally develops himself to become a great man, increase the value of his property, and makes for his town a place worth living in.. We have some very fine men who do not wealize this. They are never seen helping in the activities of any orâ€" wanization in the town. Do you not see your way to do this? One fine way is open to you now. The Wesâ€" ton Horticultural Society is one of our Aactive town societies. It stands for the building up and beautifying of our town. It calls upon you to assist in the greater production of food. It will «ask you to become a member during the next few weeks. Show yourself to be a citizen of a real town by beâ€" «coming a member. Be ready and don‘t turn the canvassers down.. Do your wbit to build up our town.. Your town â€"â€"my townâ€"unite with this society ‘and its work, become an active memâ€" ber at once. a _A joint committee composed of Mayor Charlton, Counchiors Scythes, Sainsbury and Wright also two repreâ€" sentatives from Mount Dennis met in conference on the Toronto Suburban Railway accommodation between West "Toronto and Weston. A Jletter was wead from Assistant Manager of the company and a reply sent to the efâ€" fect that the committee would meet him and discuss the matter either "Tuesday or Thursday of next week in the city at his convenience. _A special meeting of Weston council â€"~was held on Monday night for the _ purpose of discussing a couple of civic «questions. A deputation from _ the town Resources Committee waited upâ€" won them and asked for a grant of $1,â€" »000 for the cultivation of vacant lots «with the view of increasing producâ€" tion. These lots are to be had free =«of cost, but the committee feel the need of financial aid in putting the ground in shape for planting, also in :-:p;'oviding seed where large areas are to be cultivated, if the scheme is to be beneficial. Thus the appeal for funds. After considerable discussion «on the question it was decidede to adâ€" journ until Saturday night so as to 4ook into the matter carefully . and thoroughly weigh the possibilities of adequate returns from the expenditure of public money.

The bride wore ivory charâ€" meuse, pearls and silver lace, with veil and orange blossoms. Miss Eveâ€" lyn_Wagstaff, as maid of honor, wore grey Georgette and layender with hat to match.. The flower girls, Marion Beal and Befty Rankin, were in pink frocks, with Baby Stuart bonnets, Mr. D. 0. Rankin was best man.~ . Miss Jessic Swinerton played the wedding nfarch, and Miss Leila Auger sang. After a‘reception ‘the newly wedded couple left for a~ California honey moon, the bride in peacock blue velâ€" our, with beaver collar and miffâ€"and black straw hat. . & es gels masier reported that there was about eighteen inches of water at this point, due fto the jam in the river, but that in an hour‘s time it was thought that there would be a clearance, as, they were using Gynamite io open the block. _All the other lines from Wost Toronto were running on fairly good time.. The Guelph line has remained clear, and the shorter lines also, alâ€" though in some places the cars for Moody Bros.‘ place of business was closed for a few days recently owing to family ‘bereavement. . Messrs. Dunâ€" can and Edward Moody were out of town attending the funeral of their sisterâ€"inâ€"law, Mrs. Hector Moody of Dundalk. The service was suspended about 9 o‘clock last night, and figures taken of the water backed up on the road bed showed: Keele Street,â€"four feet deep; Windermere Ave., two feet deep; Hyumber, 1: rfeet; Stop 15, foupfcet; Stop 17%, six inches; Stop 23, .three feet; Stop 25,â€"3%% feet; Long Branch, 2 feet; Rifle Ranges, 144 feet. From the Rifle Ranges to _Port Credit the road bed is higher and doesn‘t serve as a ditch for the surrounding counâ€" try. After considerable difficulty about ten men were secured,â€"and by workâ€" ing~â€"all~â€"night the. cars were out on sehedule at 5.15 the next morning. 4 cars run from Sunnyside to Stop 24 and from Stop 26 on a car cafries passengers â€"to Port Credit. At Stop 25 the water was about five feet deep. ‘This arrangement is all right for Néew Toronto and Mimico resiâ€" dents, but_Port Credit and Long Branch people feel the brunt of the unsatisfactory service. , The Woodbridge line of the Toronto Suburban Railway was blocked this morning by the Humber flooding at the Vaughan line. At 10.30 the roadâ€" TLake Shore Road suburbanites were able in the usual crowd, crush and scrambleâ€"way to get home from busiâ€" ness last night, but those returning to the city forâ€"the evening were not able to return on account of the floods. Several hundreds were obliged to find accommodation in town, and the numâ€" ber would have been considerably inâ€" creased but for the fact that it was a "showless" night. Arrangements were made for next meceting of the Chapter to be held at Caledon East on May 27 and 28. Paâ€" pers are to be read at that meeting on ‘‘The Assessment System of the Diocese," by Mr. Keir of Streetsville, and on "History, Work and Value of the Rural Dean‘s Office," by Revs. Holdsworth and Battersby. The following subjects were under discussion, papers being provided by the following: "The ‘Parish Priecst Among His People,‘" by Rev. Mr. Batâ€" tersby of Alden; "Sunday School Ideals Especially in the Deanery," by Mr. Kirr of Streetsville; "Problems of the Bible Study and A. Y. P. A.," by Rev. Mr. Holdsworth of Islington; "Chrisâ€" tian Ideals," by the Rev. H. O. Treâ€" mayne of Mimico; "Relation of the Bible Class and A.Y.P.A.," by S. Wilâ€" son, Weston. In the evening Mr. Healy Williams of St. Paul‘s, Toronto, with a selected choir of men from different churches, rendered the plain evensong service with very much effect. The old chants and responses contain some excellent music. The Rev. Dr. Lewis preached the sermon. All papers were of a very high tone and the matter had â€" been carefully thought out and arranged. Each gave expression to his ideals in a practical way. It was felt that great efforts should be made to increase our Bible study and church attendance. Resolution B.â€"That this Chapter desires to record in their minds their pleasure in the presence of the Rev. Canon Tremayne, the oIdest'élergyman of the Deanery, at this meeting, and their congratulations and best wishes to him on his entering his ninetieth year. Resolution A.â€"That the R. D. Chapter desires to place on record their appreciation of their association with Rev. W. C. Turney and their reâ€" gret that he is so soon to sever his connection with the Deanery and their best wishes for his future. ‘Matins was said at 10.30 and after that the Chapter held. a business meeting, routine business being tranâ€" sacted. The Peel Deanery met at St. James‘ Church, Humber Bay, the ~chapter meeting beginning with service of Holy Communion at 8 o‘clock, Rev. Canon Walsh being the celebrant, asâ€" sisted by Rev. W. C. Turney.

These boys must also be under 25 years of age. The pickâ€" ing and training the team falls to the lot of Mr. J. C. Steckley, Newmarket. It is necessary that the boys who make this team sacrifice a good deal of time and spend considerable money, but the training is an excellent one. The Union Stock Yards donated a trophy and were the means of bringâ€" ing the teams together. The classes judged were two classes of dairy catâ€" tle, two of beef cattle, two of horses, two of sheep and two of swine. The York County team won in beef cattle, horses and swine and was 189 points ahead of their competitors in the toâ€" tal. . The team was composed of Frank O‘Sullivan, Todmorden, Clark Young, Hagerman and Erwin Winch, Belhaâ€" ven. The Stock Judging Team of York County, who won the Interâ€"County Stock Judging contest at Guelph Winâ€" ter Fair in December, met at the Union Stock Yards, Toronto, Feb. 14, and defeated the team from Glengarry County, who were winners at the conâ€" test held att he New Kempville school on Jan. 22.
