[ to It prosp . plen' " MAIN STREET l Now is the Time to do Some- thing that is Done Easier Now Than a Month Later NVith the effects of the springtime all about us, is there not the great call for a general clean up in the old town? inning" the winter season there is always a general accumulation of various kinds. These are eventually thrown out, but why leave them to gather up dirt and Le a detriment to the town. As you look about the lanes, streets and back yards you will note that there is a lot of unnecessary rubbish lying about. You will see the various lawns that are litered with papers, sticks, old dried grass and other commddities. Can't these be removed? Will it not add to the ap- pearance of your house and street to see that the whole town is cleaned up? Will it not be a splendid oppor- tunity to set the whole town on a gen- eral clean up campaign? It certainly is the opportune time and the citizens should make the first week in May a clean up week. It this were done there could be special arrangements made to have all the winter's ashes and rubbish carted off and dumped. In other large centres this has been done at the first of the season and there has not been much difficulty in keeping the town clean during the rest of the year. Weston has been making great strides. There have been several clean up campaigns. Each has been very successful. Why not make the clean up tor the year 1922 the most successful in the history of the town. If the Horticultural Society was to take hold of the matter, then the services of the whole town could be enlisted. What we need at the present time is some definite leadership along this line. Is there not an opportunity to do something big at the present moment? There certainly is and we can do it now. Let us start the wheels in motion. It was a very successful dance that the. A. B. K. girls held on Easter Monday. Some 75 couples were pres- ent and enjoyed the music supplied by Johnson's orchestra. One of the most enjoyable features of the /olub's efforts was the number of novelties that they carried off. The auto dance was a hit, the bonnet or hat dance was a scream enjoyed by all. The lucky number waltz was won by Miss Mildred Heston and V. Bdoke. Dain- ty refreshments were very pleasing to the party. The new Humberside school is certainly filling a long-felt need in this town. The splendid au- ditorium and floor "maeeg it an Meal place tor fthe holding ot a social event in our town., It is rather difficult to reach, but with the aid of the bus service this is overcome.

A directors' meeting of the Wes- ton, York and Etobicoke Agf‘icultural Society will be held in the town hall on May 3rd. Will the members keep this date in mind.

Before the Mount Dennis and the Weston reels had time to respond the building was a roaring furnace. The best that the brigades could do was to get a con- nection at Massey-Harris and save the adjoining houses. The case is particularly distress- ing inasmuch as Mr. Higgins has a family and besides the loss of his furniture he lost about $60.00 in cash. He is one of the deserving cases, having plodded through the last winter and made the best of con- ditions, emerging this year with a small nest-egg and a comfortable home. It appears that one of the chil- dren Was 'looking for something in the clothes closet with the aid of a candle and something caught fire. About half an hour afterwards, the fire was discovered, but not before it had a firm hold on the house.

The commission does all this work without a charge of a cent directly or indirectly on the schools. All that they ask is that a written request for Coach linox's services be sent to the com- mission's offices, 46 Richmond Street IVest.

A volunteer bucket brigade was called and the flames almost extinguished before the alarm was turned in. The Mimico reels arrived and made sure that there was no chance of re-ignition.
