Well, there is no til the present to make arrangeme the park ind town square. It vportant when laying plans tor toivn tTsee that there is Sp: 'parks.' Many of our large have paid dearly for this r. Will this be the case here? N, ronto should profit by the ex. ces of other centres. Secum town square and centre now range for park and athletic gr All have/a place in the develo1: a real centre. ronto new moronto can well be proud of the Goodyear grounds on the Lake Shore Road. This progressive plant is setting a pace for the rest of the town to follow. Their beautiful grounds are Well laid out and kept in per- feet order. _ It'just_shows what can be accomplished when you start out to gain an end. If the rest ot the town would only follow suit, evbn along the highway, it would be. the 1 greatest advertisement that the muni-' I cipality ever had. As you look along the street and see the dirty lots full of weeds, sticks, stone, papers and rubbish, it does not impress one as al place that you would like to live in. The whole of the street could be inn} proved with a little time wt - ~vvu Lu; Luil'cLLe in their selection of councillors and reeve. It may seem a small thing to have these men sit at the council ta- ble. But remember that they are the men who have made the thing go. Boost your coming town. Bring in other families, build houses, don't pass your merchants' by. Remember that they help to make the town, Give them a chance and they will build up a real town. Let everyone get the spirit. With the big increase there will be a greater demand for the co-operative spirit n the town. It is only by this hearty co-operation that anything worth while can be accom- plished in the work. l New Toronto is now on the Jump. _ With the computing of the census re- turns it shows that there is a town in view. 2551 is the actual returns _ from the cards collected. When you I take into consideration the large num.. ber who have removed from the vil- - lage, you can realize that there was at least 3000 persons in New Toronto during the past few years. It also points out the growth of the centre. A few years ago it was unknown. By dint of effort and much personal work the town has been built up. The industrial structures are secure and add to the stability of the town. The plants there now are building new additions. Mrith the completion of the highway, New Toronto has excel- lent transportation facilities. With the new harbor for the city, there will only be aismall haul tor their goods. With the city almost at hand there is always an abundant supply of labor. With the active housing commission on the job, the prepara- (tions are being made to take care of ‘the employees of these plants. That means a still greater centre. Some titty -houses are now under contract to be built by the commission and financed through the town. This gives ' New Toronto the right houses and I the right kind of men. Nothing can I stop the growth of this splendid cen- 1 tre but gross mismanagement. Again the municipality has been fortunate _ in their selection of councillors and :' reeve. It may seem a small thing to 1 112th +‘hnaA “An“ tr ' __ - V ".4...“ cruuuiuLB a lot of accidents. At the present time it is almost impossible to cross the road just when you so desire. It is necessary to watch very carefully for an opening on the road. When you have crossed, you can't stand upon the highway. It is most dangerous. (Still if'you miss your car, it means a direct loss of twenty minutes. If the doors were rearranged, it would be possible to board the car from the north side. Thus a person could cross when it was not so dangerous, and board the car from the north side without any danger to self or the traffic. This should be brought be- fore the attention of the railway board and have the company take care of it at once. i At Last They Have Started I It now looks as if the commission had at last got something into action. With the sand on the ground and men now levelling the road bed, there is an evident intention of actually moving over the railway tracks from their most dangerous position. With this accomplished is it now the Oppor- tune time to see if the company will not change their doors on the cars? If this were done, it would eliminate a lot of accidents.

The boy dived from Dev- in’s Wharf and was swimming for the first pier of the radial bridge, a dist- ance of 30 yards from shore. His companions were standing on the pier when Burgess sank, some five yards from the pier and they immediately gave the alarm. Two of them dived to his assistance, but failed to locate the body. Mr. Devin’s put 'out in a boat but was too late to render assist- ance, since the body did not again come to the surface, Grappling irons were secured from the boathouse and lifesaving station notified. The men from the boathouse recovered the ‘ body after grappling for about forty- five minutes. The lifesaving crew took the body to Hicks' boathouse, _ where Dr. Allison, after examination, 'pronounced the accident to be due to heart failure. The ,boy was the son of NV, H.
