You will enjoy a; stroll along the river bank, when the hot summer months come THINGS IIIIII IIIIIINI IN CITIZENSHIP On Monday evening the Citizenship l Committee held their regular meeting. . The president, F. Johnston, was in the chair and conducted the routine business. A splendid musical program was contributed by Miss Ackrow, in- strumental, and Mr. Hartley, vocal selections, and Miss Georgina Burg- ess, readings. Councillor J. P. Nun, then gave a splendid talk on citizen- ship, pointing out that to ’secure Til highest and best type of citizens high ideals must be maintained. Citizenship requires men and wo- men of the highest character to insure the welfare and the stability of any country. Emerson has well said in the following words, "The truest test of civilization is not the census, nor the size of cities, nor the crops, but the kind of man the country pro- duces." If the ideals ot the country are to secure a large cosmopolitan" emigration, that will increase the pop- ulation, then the future of the country is seriously hampered. It the great ideals presented to our people is to create large industrial cities with their many Questionable methods and procedures, the stability of the coun- try is not insured. It every acre of ground is cultivated and Big crops reaped, it does not say that that pro- duces the highest type of man. Therefore the first great point to be emphasized in developing a true citi- zenship must be to lay a. proper foundation. No structure, whose beau- tiful spires and domes rise nobly to the clouds will stand the tempests of the elements unless it is' reared on a solid, substantial foundation. True citizenship must be centred, must be built, upon the great principles laid down by our Lord Jesus Chriist. If we build our structures on the ideals of Wealth or power. and leave out the ideals as set forth, the teachings of our church, the structures will soon fall before the storms ot the times. Every citizen, to realize his true citi- zenship, must be led by the true Christian church. If our citizens would realize the ideals ot this associ- ation, it every member here would endeavor to develop as God intended him to develop, the foundation ot true citizenship would be laid that would not only stabilize our' commun- Meeting Held Under Auspices of Methodist Y.P.S. Points Out Some of the Essentials ity, our country, but would bring about that much sought, that greatly longed for PEACE of the whole world. Let this, my friends, be one of the first objectives to strive tor which is well put in the words of Lowell, "Be noble---be noble--and the nobleness that lies, in other men, sleeping but never dead, will rise in majesty to meet thine own." Whgidioes this mean to us? If every member ot this association would follow these ideals, the influ- ence that they would create, the nobleness, not only within themselves, but within others, on our Citizenship; it would create a different atmo- sphere in political, commercial, finan- cial, municipal and social life. Thus our first great point is the laying of the foundation on a basis of an ideal that will permit the erection of a cit- izenship that is worthy of our great country, with its wonderful assets and opportunities. _ In the second place, we must not stop =a'_tttgytst9tyyla9??vy, how ugly -Mr. and Mrs. Charlie, DaViS"1eft items under this head 15c per line.

Seal put through a real estate deal in which a parcel of land that has been on the market for some time. Mr. Cavannaugh having purchased Miss Irvin's property on Main St. It is his intention to erect several houses, which will add to the residential value ot that section ot the street. _---The ladies interested in the Gren- fell Mission Work are reminded of the closing Sewing Tea for this year to be held at the home of Mrs. Briggs, King St., on Friday afternoon, May 19. It is hoped a. large number of the members will turn out in order to complete the work for theseason and to enable the committee to prepare the annual bale. Note the date and place, Mrs. Briggs, King St., Friday, May 1 9th in the form of repairs. The interior is being decorated throughout, which will place it in a. habitable condition, also many changes will be made out- side with a view to making it one of the best hotels in this part. As soon as ready, the hotel will be opened as --Since the Central Hotel has been purchased by Mr. F. Canning, very appreciable changes have taken place a rooming and boarding house and tirst-ciass accommodation is assured ---also arrangements have been made tor stabling for horses. The hotel will be under the direct management and control of Messrs. M. Smith and J. Kelly who have recently moved in. Clean Up and Paint Up Day has been suggested. Many of the resi- dents have done their share, only to find the dust of the streets was a stronger force than the paint brush, and their time, money and labor ot no avail against the inroads of dust, to say nothing of the discomforts, if tempted by the bright sunshine, you seek to enjoy a few hours in the open air. Main St. has been treated to a coat of tar, and the residents feel they live on the only street in town. What about the other parts,' are "the shrubs, flowers and trees, the citizens have taken the trouble to plant and care for, to be destroyed through lack of proper street, sanitation. concrete work looks to the eye, if the Work stops there. We must build properly upon that structure. A citi- zenship that does not interest its/elf in public matters that are directly concerned in the welfare of Canada is useless. It is our duty, if we would rise, to study carefully the problems of our community. To note, not with a casual glance, neither in a super- ficial manner, our municipality, our Provincial Parliament, our House of Commons, and the Senate. This cannot be understood intellie gently, nor a proper conclusion reach- ed in these matters unless there is time spent in study, unless authorities are heard and read, and a, compre- hensive study of the situation. Thus if we would build a creditable citi- zenship we must study and become informed on these matters, Again if the building is to Le made permanent and to be supported pro- perly we must develop a true sense of economy. Many l Government, many a municipality, has been wrecked by a IIl-unlclydxxby, “as ”by“ PF__sr-""" n. a set of men who had not the proper valuation of a. dollar. We must learn true economy. Spurgeon has said, “Economy is half the battle ot life.” Dr. Johnston has said, “Economy is the parent of integrity, of liberty and ease and the beauteous sister of tem- perance, ot pheerfulness and health." Thus if we would have that high citi- zenship we must study the laws of economy, for: by so doing We will in- sure the future and the stability of a citizenship. Again it we would adorn our struc- ture, we must adorn it with that artis- tic taste that would make it stand with beauty to the eyes of all that view it. If we plaster it with a cheap veneer, if we make it but a gold filling, it will not stand, but rather let it so cultivate our taste, let it so control our environments that all will tend to give us the incentive to strive for those things that ate not veneer but rather are the solid gold. It is essential that our books be of the best-perhaps no other things have such a power to lift the poor out ot poverty, the wretched out of misery, to make the burden-bearer forget his burden, the sick man his illness, as books. Read great books from great thinkers, formative books, inspiring and so uplifting. It is the bogks that we read while young, of the lives of great men, that create our ideals. Therefore one of the greatest essentials in building this structure is the proper selection ot our reading; This borne out in a selection from one of '1uongrellow's poems, "Lives of great men," all re- minds us "We can make otir lives sublime, and departing leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time." While we could proceed in dis- cussing this matter for hours, let me ask you to consider these few points of (1) Laying a proper foundation; next, so regulating on: hours cf pleasure and toil that we might spend more profitable time in endeai'oring to develop that high and noble ideal of a true citizenship, not n om a self- ish motive to gain power, but from the iarger motive to raise humanity to the high levels as set forth in. our Christian teachings Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Graham, Uxbridge, Ontario, announce the en- gagement of their daughter, Venora.
