A visit to the High School grounds on Thyrs- day night will reveal this fact. You will see several of the old married men who at one time or another have played baseball .trying their arms and eyes out again. This is a good sign. A man is just as old as he feels, If you give up and forget all the physical activities, then you will wither. Keep young by playing the game. It you want a workout, join the married team and practice. You will find your- self feeling better and younger after you take the kinks out of your system. Don't take my word. just try it for yourself Thursday night. On Tuesday last the Standard him-l "creney Classes of the Methodist Church, under' the leadership ot Mr. A. Pearson, gave a very interesting and entertaining evening to a crowd-) ed audience in the local town harm The tact of it being the first program l ever staged before a Weston audience, i also the work being entirely new to a majority of the spectators, made thel program more interesting. The out- standing feature was the value of the} physical training in a young boy'sl lifts, providing, as it did, full play tori the sinews and muscles ot the body? without putting too much strain on) one part and under developing amour»; er portion. The one drawback to', the entertainment was the lack of! space. in many cases the boys being{ unable to give the numbers to advan-‘ tage. The opening, number given byl the boys of Mr. J. M. Pearen's class represented a day in camp. Amused! by reveille, the boys scrambled out one by one, some stretching their limbs, others more sleepy, with pro- digious yawns, but in a few minutes . the clear morning air had opened ev-, ery eye, and after breakfast they were ready tor the day's work, and sports combined for one of the les- sons strongly emphasized that while' all work and no play ts liable to make} Jack a, dull boy, still all play and no) work is quite liable to develop a lazy] boy. Interesting indeed was the Sig-z nal system used in. calling the w,an-l, derers hack to dinner, and the Iescuei and first aid treatment given to one} of their comrades in a drowning ac-l cident was capital. This closed ill-l, ter one. and the K.O.H. Class thenl took charge, opening with a duet by Messrs. W. Mather and Mercer, f?) Reid accompanying them. From then) on drills, dumb-bell and club swirurl ing, and other amusing as well asi clever feats were performed by the) boys. Among the comic numbers might be slated the blindfolded box- ing, musical boxing and the farce ,,Lost in the Desert," the hero be-- ing very confident of shooting bears! or braving any other danger to shield his more timid lady companion, until} the real thing in the shape of a' brown grisly did appear, then the tables were turned. Probably the neatest work was shown in the maze drill, the intricate turning of which' showed that considerable practice and patience had been expended be- fore the high state of efficiency had been reached. The pyramids were " so excellent, although these num-r hers had been given before and per- haps did not appeal as strongly as some of the newer stunts. Yet an ac- count of the performance would not be complete without mention being 'ME.' 'es"'"'""""-' 'Pee""" _ made of the feats and figures worked out, standing as they did in many in- stances, three men high from the floor. Miss Josie Clark of Toronto assisted t e boys in their delightful 'l,'istiesrtteadinrthrt" by a couple of solos and reading numbers, which were much appreciate), and heartin ap- plauded by the large company pres- ent. The closing number was also a fitting one, Mrs. Pearson being re- quested to come to the platform and Mr. Carrington, as class president,pre- sented her with a. beautiful bouquet as a slight token of their apprecia- tion of her interest combined with that of her husband during the past season, ending with three cheers, and then some, tor both. V From all appearances Weston .will put a strong team in the field against Woodbridge on Saturday. This will be the opening game ot the Interrhe- diate series in this section. The old teams of last year, with some new ma- terial, are looked upon to turn out tor the game. There was a good practice held on Monday night, and the locals should turnin a good win. LACROSSE GAME SATURDAY K.0.H. CLASS EXERCISES WEST YORKS NEVVSY N/N/EEKL'/ Mr. H. P. Eckhardt was present and spoke upon the stock that he gave to Weston, York and Etobiooke Fair Board. In making thts,presen- tation a few years ago he did so be- cause of the belief that he had in the country fairs of York County as a medium tor good. He explained that he thought the farm was the back- ground of our land. That all the country fairs should be given every encouragement to carry on. One way to make the fair perpetual was to have sufficient money given and laid aside so that the interest from the capital would run the fairs. This he explained could be easily carried out if the men would only give small amounts tor this purpose to the fairs. He has given amounts to all the dit- feernt fair boards so as to make the nest egg. The sum given to the TVes- ton Fair Board did not have any strings upon it. The shares of the original stock were sold and the money placed to the credit of the Board with the Toronto General Trust Co. This sum is new invested in a $600 victory bond tor 15 years at 5% p.03 The interest is payable to the Weston Fair Board. It the Board so desire they can dispose of the capN tal, but he would rather see the capi- tal left and only the interest used. He also expressed the thought in the near future he would add to the amount that was already there. If possible he would like to make it up to $2,000. This is all in the future and no defiD- ite plans have been made as yet. The Board, after hearing this explanation of, the stock, were delighted with the idea of the capital account and so ex- pressed themselves by a motion to use only the interest on this amount. On l motion the Board expressed their appreciation ot Mr. Eckhardt's trener- osity and tendered to him the hearty vote of thanks from the Society, This is the starting point and if others will follow suit the Society would be in a position to carry on a, real country fair that will draw out the best that country districts can produce. All those who have ideas and 'nur- gestions for the fair should forward them to one of the directors or to the committee. The fair this year, with the experiences gained and the men in charge, should be the best yet. Do your part. The next question Was that of the annual collections for the fair. Mr, John Dickin, who has done this work .for the past tew years, announced that on account of being under doc- tor's orders he could not take the duties this year. Much time was spent in trying to force him into the work again, but he was firm. This speaks well for the excellent services that he has given and the directors were loath to loose him. It was then spok- en of placing the matter of soliciting the collections and the advertising up- on the Secretary. Attera long talk it was decided to appoint R. L, Craw- ford to undertake [the collections on the same basis as in former years. Messrs. Kapuer, Monkman, Harris, the President, Mr. Macklin, and the Secretary, A. G. Goulding, were ap- pointed as the attraction committee. These two committees will start work- ing at, once as they are instructed to have their tair the fair of an fairs.

V. :DNCSDAY, JUNE 16TH, 1920 The next was the appointment ot the printing committee, who will look atter'the detail of the book and ad- vertising. Mr. w. J. Gardhouse, Chairman, Messrs. J. BL Pearen, Prof. Wade and C. Lorne Fraser are the committee. There was a good attendance of the Weston. York and Etoblcoke Fair Board Directors on last Friday night. It was decided after hearing the re- port on the moving of the present main building back to the lower end of the grounds and using it as a stable that for the present nothing would be done. It was felt that the prices given and the necessary outlay for the change were more than the Society could stand at the present time, There was also nothing in sight to replace the present building, but tents on the fair day and these would not be very satisfactory, according to arguments put forth. This will be taken up when the funds are in better condition and the building can be replaced by a bet- ter one. For the present the building will remain where it is and the whole question taken up at a full meeting of the Society. V FAIR BOARD MEETING night, he assures me that the prvrt- gram is nearly completed and the out- line he gave me assures a wouder’ui day. All the 'JC" things will be talk- ed about in t e home, In the street Pars and in all publiu places. The midway will be greater than ever. The same old show men will be on the stands and while the merry throng enjoy the tun at the booths, the Wes- ton Band will entertain the young and the old with special band numbers. This Thursday night a meeting of the ladies will take place at the home of Mrs, Mattison. All ladies who are in- terested are asked to attend. Watch tor the big announcements. Send out your post cards, ring up your friends, boost Weston tor Dominion Day. Gee, we are all getting excited. On Saturday afternoon the eham- pionship O.A.L.A. games were opened in this district. The St. Simon's team of Toronto were the opponents of the local Juveniles. Only a tew people were on hand to witness the game, but they were well repaid for the Journey. The old idea that only the seniors there should be a very fast interest is wrong. These juveniles played a game that was fast, exciting and full ot interest all the time. While the stick work was not that of the seniors or the passing finished, yet the "pep" and speed that the boys put into the game made it full of interest all the time. m'taygone days Weston was known as a "slow old burg" on holidays. The Vets, however, will make an effort to upset all old traditions. Speaking to Secretary J. Allen over the phone tty- Weston had the play all their own way for the first two quarters. The field ted the home in splendid' style, who in turn during this period netted 6 goals. Clark Griffiths scored the first goal, then Dug Morton bulged the net for the second. This was all the scoring in the first period. In the second period Pat White opened for the locals, taking the ball from the draw be bored right in and beat the goalie. Gordon Mackitteriek then beat the defence and goalkeeper for the second. Brown, who played an effective game, took a beautiful pass, beat his check and scored No. 3. Then Clark Griffith, with a. bullet like shot, put the ball clean through the net for the fourth. This closed the quar- tel: Monday, odisty gi-inthe Meeting of Horticultural Society in \Veston Town Hall. Seekers!

Willie Mather and Young Dick were replaced by two others, but the combination was not stmng. Dick was missed from the centre and Mather was needed badly. St. Simon's ran in three goals in quick time, then Brown scored one tor Wes- ton. St. Simon's scored two more, but White and Mackitteriek came back witha goal each,‘ This exosed the quarter with the score '9 to 5, The last quarter opened up fast. St. Sim- on's were out to do or die, They brought the whole defence down on the home and on some fast work ran in three goals, making it 9 to is. Wes- ton then took a hand and showed that they were not all in. Willie Mather scored and put the game safe. Just before the whistle blew, St. Simon's scored one more making: the final score 10 to 9 for the Meals, This game indicates that the locals have some very good and fas: material to make up this team, They have speed and some ot them handle their sticks with skill.
