' Mrs. Alfred Sansom On Saturday, May 13th. the death occurred of Mrs. Elizabeth Sansom, widow ot the late, Alfred Sansom, of Highfield, Ont. Deceased, who Was in her 84th year, had spent the past few years with her daughter, Mrs. Ford, 8 Ford St., Toronto. Funeral services were held at that address on Monday, May 15th, interment taking place in Riverside Cemetery. Alfred, Sansom, of George St,, Weston, is a son or the deceased. _ _ M., Queen City Lodge, I.0.0.F., Mili- tant branch. and the Presbyterian Church. His Widow. Mrs, Maud Crane, two sons, William Edward and Findlay James, and five daughters. Mrs. Cassie Callowhill, Hamilton, and the Misses Anna, 1113.. Patricia And Helen, Toronto, survive. W. E. Crane Following a, lingering illness, Wil- liam E. Crane died at his home, Rob- ert St. Toronto, on Monday, Ma}; l5th. Deceased, who was in his Glst year, was born in Weston, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Martin Crane, who owned and operated the first sawmill in Wesiton. He had spent. the past tor- ty years in Toronto and was employed as a Meteorological expert at the To- ronto Observatory. He was for 10 years sergt.-major of the University Company Engineers, and was a mem- ber of Rehoboam Lodge, A.F. and A. ally, socially, and from a transporta- tion point Weston is a centre that Will come into its own. It will greatly aid the situation if the citizens will only help advertise the town. . the Rowntree estate because they told the people that they had some- thing that they wanted. If we are to develop our town, then we must let the people know that we have a real town with something to offer. It must be told by the citizens who live here. It must be put forth broad- cast if we want results. The whole country side should know ot Weston and its great advantages. Education- With the boosting, of the various centres about us these days, is there not something that can be done tor our town? We hear ot the great de- velopment in the Rowntree estate; we" note the big proposition to build 250 homes on Eglington‘ Ave. this year. There are several new sub- divisions about ready to be placed upon the market about this district. In fact there is a big effort being put forth to create a larger Weston. All these activities‘are not the real estate boost, but are efforts to meet the de', mands of the hour. Men are desirous ot moving away from the city, but within distance of the great city-so that they can' go in and out daily. They have a longing to just get out- _ side of the high taxed district. They want a little more independence and room about them. They Want a little _ garden and small home that they can call their own. In the town there has not been that correspondent growth. Why is this great centreof activity not getting its share ? t l Wesfon Has Axons to Offer'. r, There'is no town or centre that has better assets to offer her citizens or those desirous of locating in a centre ot activity than our town has. A Burr- vey- of the situation will convince any one that Weston'isan ideal town to live in and has everything that any- body can want; 'It is' so Situated that it meets the needs of those whose business takes them daily to the city. It is a centre for the traveller, as he can get trains here with ease. It has the space to meet those who want a little ‘land with their home.‘ It has beauty that will appeal to any eye that is, looking for beauty. It has schobls that are turning out men and women that have _ been a. credit to our community. Our utilities are in the best of condition and a credit to any town. Our administration is such that our town today has a fin- ancial standing that makes our bonds marketable. Above all the taxes of the town of Weston will compare very favorably with those of any centre. Our taxes are low when you make the comparison. You will find that Weston is your centre. Pe0ple Will Not Come. Today with the vast amount of pub- licity that is being sent torth,.' is it any wonder that the people go only where they are invited? You know of the different proposition because some often put you in touch with it or you saw it advertised in some form. Thousands ot dollars have been spent in the development ot WESTIJN IS NATURAL lllilllE M ACTIVITY Tire final Quarterly Board meeting for the past year was meld in the Methodist Church. on Thursday last, with the pastor, Rev. Is." B. Walwyn, presiding. The reports given were most encouraging from all stard- Every Citizen Should Set to _ Work and Help Realize l Our Opportunities Methodist Chm ch Next Monday evening the timing meeting of the Methodist. Young 1190. ple's will be held. This promises to be one of special interest to all The pin-gramme will consist of reports of the year's work by the various Vice.. Presidencs, the Secretary and Tyeasur- et., P Following this the election or of- ficers fur the coming season will be held. It is hoped that as many as possible of the Young People make it a point of attending in order Ihat the season's work be completed before closingltor the summer months.

The By-law has had to be amended to take care of them." The next movtrwi11 be to wid- en the township in order to make suf- ficient room for them. Messrs. Kirby Bros. wilt shortly open a hardware store on the premises at present occupied by the billiard parlors, where they will carry a full line of shelf and heavy hardware. They anticipate opening in the course of the next week or ten days. In the meantime. the pool room will be mov- ed across the road Where accommoda- tion is being prepared. Quite a number attended the March-in held every school. day at 1.30 p.m. Although it cannot ,toe said that' all those who put in appearance, they were nevertheless more or less interested in those children whom they knew. Their activities and at- tendance would have seriously hamp- ered had their been any “Bush" on at the time but as that did not tran- spire, the assembly went unmolested. Among those present were one aire- dale, one black and white collie,. one small White fox terrier, one small white spaniel, one large yellow and white smooth haired, Just plain dog. This canine assembly was due to the quadrupeds following theirlittle mas- ters or mistresses to school. How- ever, it is hoped that the luring methods of a certain sandy haired gentleman will utilize his persuasive manners and marshall them off in a rush with a view to putting them in‘ the guardhouse until such time as he l can get a price tor them, if they do l not-tire before they get there or hit; with an appleby, a small boy. I I Following the regular meeting, of the Etobicoke 'Township Council which was held in the Islington Council Chambers on Monday afternoon last, it was found necessary to call a special meeting in the evening, the chief busi- ness being the reception of a delega- tion from Long Branch who again ' brought forward that much talked of subject Water. This time, however it looks a little more encouraging and with a few good strokes, there is every good hope that this district will have an ample scupply of water. The meet. ing was adjourned until next Monday evening when a joint meeting with the j Public utilities Commission of New To- ironto will be held and it is further anticipated that the every assurance will be given that the supply, will shortly be an accomplished tact. l More Licenses Although the By-law respecting the issuance of Licenses for Refreshment Booths is limited to a. number, quite an {overflow of applications have been re- ceived and the council has found it, essential to take, the necessary action l to auake further provision and so take care otrthese belated applicants. ' New Sidewalks By a resolution submitted by Depu- ty-Reeve T, A. C. Tier and seconded by Deputy-Reeve R. Marshall, the enâ€" gineers report for the construction of a four foot concrete sidewalk on Douglas Ave. and' on Queen Street as on plan No. 2308 has been accepted and the Clerk instructed to prepare the nece- ssary By-law and advertise the inte- tron and relieve rnuéihardship such as has‘beeri experienced in, the past seasons. _ i [ _ N Gold Dangers [ Owing to the proximity of the Hum- ber Valley Golf Club to the highway, it has been found that the pedestrians lives are in jeopardy through the play- ing ofthe game in this vicinity. As a result bf representations being made to council it was moved by Deputy- Reeve R. Marshall and seconded by Deputy-Reeve. W. Appleby that the Clerk be and is hereby instructed to write the Humber Valley Golf,Club re-their members playing Golf over or on College St. and Cockburn Ave. thereby endangering the lives of Ped- estrains who have to use these roads fdr travel and that this practice must he discontinued forthwith. Mother's Day was most fittineg ob- served, in the Methodist Church on Sunday last, large congregations being present both morning and evening. The pastor spoke briefly but impress- ively on the home life and its influence for good or evil on the life of the child. The impressionable period from one to twelve years, was spent to a. large extent under the influence and guidance of the parents, and if good seed. was not sown, the parent had made a grave mistake and one from which only a. harvest of bitter regrets wbuld be gathered. The word of God and prayer must be the bulwark of the home. The mothers of the church led the congregational singing, also giving some choice selections during Jlllglll.
