The chief loss was that of the Reliable Bedstead Co., whose loss was $20,000. They also mentioned the convention, which was such a marked success, and extended their thanks to the town for their hearty coâ€"operation during that particular time. Community. Gardens As an incentive to the splendid reâ€" sults and the good work on the part of the Weston Horticultural Society, Reeve J. M. Gardhouse moved that a grant of $100 be nmiade to that body for the year 1922. "The juyenile comâ€" munity gardens receive a great deal of attention, and the interest of the chilâ€" dren is being taken care of by the Rev. W. M. McKay, who has had charge of that end of the society for the past few years. qurrers Ten Tenders The financial market has taken an appreciable upward trend and the bids that came through on the new debenture issue for $51,553.70 were all in the vicinity of par value. On the last occasion the best price was a trifle.over 96. Each tender. was Oopâ€" ened separately and by numbers, so that the name of the successful tenâ€" derer was not divulged until â€"after they had all been opened and the highest accepted. The Continental Bond Corporation Ltd., of the City of Toronto, bid was 100.60, while the next was only .1 below it. The lowest tender was 98.1 and accordingly the aforementioned corporation was granted the issue. On Friday, Feb. 21st, a Communâ€" ity Concert will be held in the Town Hall, when the Boys‘ Band will be the feature. This is the largest Boys‘ Band in the Province if not in the Country and the credit for their culâ€" ture is due entirely to Bandmaster George Sainsbury. A few years ago, under his splendid leadership, Weston had what was known as the Weston Prize Band and their fame was spread over the Province. The Boys‘ Band will shortly attain the same fame. This concert will be free to the community and it is hoped that all will avail themselves of the opportunity of hearâ€" ing the boys; also many other excelâ€" lent items which have been arranged "Fine" Watch At the last meeting of the council the chairman of the property commitâ€" tee was authorized .to purchase a stop watch for the use of the chief constable in order to assist him in checking up the speed fiends on the new highway.

WESTON MAN PRES. QVT. HORT. SOOIFT At the recent annual meeting of the Ontario Horticultural Society, Weston was honored in the fact that one of her prominent citizens was elected as President of the Association for the year 1922 Rev. W. M. Macâ€" kay, the newlyâ€"elected president, is alâ€" so president of the local organization. An indefatiguable worker, he has been instrumental in placing Weston in the foremost ranks of Horticultural work. His special line of work has been with the children. Starting some five or six years ago in Community Garden work, he was given charge of this department and by his enthusiâ€" asm has created such| an interest among the children, that at the last exhibit, nearly â€" oue hundred school children were competitors, their enâ€" tries being of such a high order that the judges found it ~difficult work awarding the prizes. In addition to his great work among the children, he ministers to a large congregation, looking after his people with. the same zealous care and forethought, as in his more secular duties.. The. comâ€" munity extend to Rev, Mr. Mackay their sincere congratulations on the honor awarded him. ¢ & On _ Thursday . might â€" twentyâ€"five members of St. John‘s A.Y.F.A. paid a visit to the members of the Church of the Good Shepherd Branch. _A most enjoyable: evening «was spent.

DENNS It was resolved by the affirmative that the world is growing better. Three strong debaters representing the Church of the Good Shepherdâ€" Messrs. Bath, Nicholl and Even, made a good case for their side. They pointed ‘out very forcibly that there are signs that conditions today are not improving but rather are going back or at a standstill. ‘Their arguments were well put definted. â€" They, nowâ€" ever, were confronted in tneir case by leading young promising members of St. Johns‘â€"Messrs. Hollinsworth, Westover and Chapman. These three young orators showed by strong arâ€" gument that the world is growing betâ€" ter. That improvement has been made and is being made every day. They scored their points with a firm conviction that carried weight with the judges, and were rewarded with the victory. It was a revelation to the judges to find these young men so able in their handling of the subâ€" ject. The decision was given by Dr. Peirson, senior judge. He commented very favorably upon the manner in which the six speakers handled their points and material. He stated that the affirmative had won the debate by one point. He was ably assisted in his decision by Messrs. J. P. Allan and Greenwood.

It has been often stated in these columns that Weston was an ideal loâ€" cation for anyone who is looking for a new location with every facility. Durâ€" ing the last few years these facts have been growing upon the minds of the people near and far. The fact that during the past few years there has been a most noticeable growth in the Aumber of plants that, have been located and the number of houses built. This has not been the only evidence of growth. Business has increased, new stores built and the general conditions of the town imâ€" proved. _ Thus today Weston can well be placed as one of the growing, imâ€" portant centres of this part. These facts are drawing large manufacturers to look over the town and the\ vicinity with views of locating here. In the past a number of these inquiries have been let slip by. Under the direction of Howard Gray, who has been apâ€" pointed industrial commissioner, every effort is being made to show those inquiring the different available loâ€" cations. Every effort is also being made to see that those inquiring are given every advantage. Our Chance to do Something While there is in the air this un» certainty about the location of some concerns, is it not an opportunity for every one to coâ€"operate? Several large manufacturing concerns are in the market for a new location. Some of them know nothing of our fine sitâ€" uation.. They will know if every eitâ€" izen of the town and merchant will only advertise the fact. Weston needs the hearty coâ€"operation of her citizens at the present moment to carry out a definite plan of campaign for the proâ€" motion of our town. We talk about the town and don‘t let the other fellow have it his way. Make the home town the city of tomorrow. In other words boost Weston. If we can| only direct the thoughts of the people toâ€" wards the great future of the town, then we can soon realize that future. Don‘t fail to aid the industrial comâ€" missioner in his work. Give him every assistance to do something big for the town. It means everything to every citizen and merchant in our town to do this work. | : WEBION 15 BEING CONSDERED BY MFB. Greater ideals are being placed beâ€" fore the people every day. There was a day when the power of money was the great objective, of, the nation. Today the great powers are realizing that the greatest asset of a nation is its youth. They realize that money and available assets need men of high ideals to handle it. Citizenship is one of the great needs of the hour. To this ehd towns and cities, yes even the rural districts are putting forth new efforts to develop the boy and girl towards attaining that high citâ€" izenship. Special courses and opporâ€" tunities are being created_so that the development of the young people will be increased. BUILD CANADIANS, ASSURE THE FUTURE It is the Citizenship that Makes a Nation and Not the ; Dollars. One of the methods that is being used and used over the whole country is physical development. It is reaâ€" lized that a person who will succeed should have a good physical being. It s an assest to him. It is also realized ‘that the proper\ supervision of these athletic pursuits is necessary. Many have been ruined because of certain lax methods. The government realâ€" izes the importance. They have seâ€" lected a trained man to give advice and organize the district. What are we doing along t}}"is line? Are our boys and girls receiving any encourâ€" agement from the town to develop that high physical training? are we satisfied) with the efforts that are beâ€" boys and girls receiving any encourâ€" agement from the town to develop that high physical training? are we satisfied‘ with the efforts that are beâ€" ing put forth in our stnools and on our town lots and playgrounds? If not, then there should be some effort made to have something definite acâ€" complished.. Let us all do something to give the boys and girls of our town a real chance to develop physically. This may be the means of giving them the necessary strength toâ€"carry the great load | of life. Think just what is being done and see if it is sufficient On Saturday, February 21st, West York Liberals will convene at Weston for the tallying of forces and plans for the successful carrying on of the work. The annual convention will commence at 3 o‘clock in the G. W. V. A. Memorial â€"Hall, followed by a banquet at 6 p.m. in the town hall. Major Tolmie, Mr. Wilkie, K.C. and Major Streight will be the speakers. In addition to this a good. musical program will be given.
