Filmed in Italy so that the fullest justice might be done to the work of the popular author, this picture was screened in the exact settings of which the book tells. Readers will recall that many of these settings were the magnificent castles which comprised the last and mortgaged asset of an impoverished nobility. But despite this state of affairs, pride seemed to linâ€" ger about the occupants anS permisâ€" sion to film the buildings and grounds was often hard to secure. But there being no will like that of the locationâ€" hunter, this permission was eventually gained and now millions of pictureâ€" goers, unprivileged by circumstance to travel,, will be enabledâ€"‘to enjoy the beauties of this Old World architecâ€" ture. Those who have seen the stage verâ€" sion of "Mr,. Barnes of New: York," remember the many thrilling incidents that made this melodrama one of the most popular plays of the nineties. The Goldwyn organization has seen to it that none of, the thrills have been lost; and judging from the cast, which includes, besides (Mr. Moore, such sterling players as Naomi Childers, Anna Lehr, Sydney Ainsworth and Otto Hoffman, the production will be a notable addition to the many exâ€" cellent photoplays recently made by the Goldwyn organization. Recent permits include a dwelling and garage,~J. ‘McKenzie, Forest Hill road, $10,500; Globe: Lazd Co., 11 dwellings, Savoy, $16,500;, 12 dwellâ€" ings, Savoy, $18,000; S.

Fate plays the silent role of avenger in the coming Goldwyn production of "Mr. Barnes of New York," which may be seen at the Beaver Theatre for two days, commencing Monday. This is the tale of a Corsican vendetta, in which an American ‘becomes the instrument of fate and prevents a cruel murder, _ Tom Moore, the star of "Mr. Barnes of New York," has a gratifying role in which his genial humor and comedy sense is given free expression. Beâ€" sides, he is called upon to reveal a deeper emotional. quality, when imâ€" pending tragedy calls it forth. _ _ Permits issued in York Township since July 1 totalled $800,000, repreâ€" senting 250 dwellings, and 50 perâ€" mits~ for additions, removals, garâ€" ages, stores, ete. This month will almost double July,; 1921, when the amount of building was $573,000. Permits for Three Weeks in July Totalled $800,000 FAMOUS CASTLES SCREENED Something must be done to relieve the situation or very soon the now thriving Towns will be on the downâ€" ward grade. The question is vital and a strong appeal to the Government should be all that is necessary to give Weston and Mount Dennis what they need .and what they deserve. The inconvenient schedule on which the cars now run is quite unnecessary since the roads have been repaired and are in the condition to carry a double track which could be laid without a great deal of expenditure. When speakâ€" ing of the cars there are many things which could be said. They were eviâ€" dently built in the days when convenâ€" ience to the company‘s financial standâ€" point was more important than the coxllfort to its supporting passengers. About 200 people lived in Mount Dennis in 1900 and the present day population is over 8000. No steps have been taken to accomodate them outâ€" side of putting on extra cars during the rugh hours for the express purpose of handling the C.C.M., Kodak and Mofâ€" fat employees. Notwithstanding this fact the cars become so crowded that one almost forgets their humanity and resorts to the manner of cattle, there is no such case as women and children first, "but every man for himself." Sold by Richardson‘s Drug Store In 1899 theâ€"population of Weston was about 900 and the cars ran every half hour to a point east of Weston. Later they ran to Church St., then to ‘Humber St.. In 1914 the Sunday serâ€" vice was put on and shortly after that the present day 20 minute service was brought into action. Since that time no further steps have been taken by the railway officials to cope with the increased population. day.. The rapid increase in the populaâ€" tion has undoubtedly not been considâ€" ered in the least. The street cars and the service on the line from West Toronto to Mount Dennis and Weston is the topic of the BUILDING BOOM_CONTINUES Increased Population Demands More Convenient Mode of Travelling MI. DENNIS, WESTDN ts wo SEvCE THE TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON Quite dramatic in some of its acâ€" tion, the plot provides abundant comâ€" edy and gives the star an opportunity to display the talent for which she is best known. â€" Kenneth Harlan makes a promising leading man and George Fawecett, noted character actor, conâ€" tributes an excellent part. â€" The story was prepared as an oriâ€" ginal for Miss Talmadge by John Emâ€" erson and Anita Loos, who have done the scenarios for some of the star‘s biggest hits, in addition to having reâ€" cently produced a comedy of their own entitled "Red Hot Romance." The story centres upon ~the girl who decides to decamp from the old homestead and emulate her thousands of_sistersâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"girighamâ€"gown in seekâ€" ing fame in the city. The difference is that Polly actually manages to see Flo Ziegfeld and obtains a tryout for the Follies. After that â€" her experiences furnish arnew and originalâ€"chapter in the life of the stageâ€"struck, honestâ€" butâ€"hardâ€"working daughter of the soil. Old Silas Meacham always had the habit of getting the wrong cue. Someâ€" times it didn‘t make much difference, but when he butted in on the amateur movies that his niece, Polly, with long ambitions and short experience, was staging he crabbed the show. That furnishes an idea of how he becomes an unwelcome interloper in "Polly of the Follies," the First National attracâ€" tion â€"starring Constance Talmadge, that will be shown at the Beaver Theatre next week. A large number of entries are alâ€" ready listed for the Oat Growing Comâ€" petition, the judging of which will take place next week. CONRAD NAGEL HAS ROLE OF, DOCTOR IN NEW AYRES PICTURE ~Conrad Nagel, one of the most popâ€" ular leading men of the screen, whose recent appearances in\ Paramount picâ€" tures have won him a large following of fans, plays opposite Agnes Ayres, star of the Paramount picture, "The Ordeal," which comes to the Oakwood Theatre July 31st, August 1st and 2nd. Mr. Nagel has never been cast to finâ€" er advantage in any photoplay in which he has been seen this season. In making the>.awards for Fall Wheat in the annual Standing Field Grain Compteition. Mr. Darius McLure the recently appointed judge gave the following awards: Wm. Woods, Maple, 88 1â€"2; David M. Middleton, Richmond Hill, 87â€" 1â€"2; Stanley Watson, Pine Grove, 86; Isaac Fletcher, Woodbridge,, 84; C. A. McNeil, Maple, 83 1â€"2; Wm: Witherspoon, Woodbridge, 83. There were 25 entries. Mr. Nagel‘s role is that of a young doctor, and it is said to be a remarkâ€" ably true to life character as its creâ€" ator was himself a doctor. For before he became an author, W. Somerset Maugham was a graduate physician in Great Britain. In America, however, his medical skill would be a total loss as he is licensed to practice in Engâ€" land only. CONSTANCE TALMADGE ONE _ OF ZIEGFELD‘S BEAUTIES Mrs. Ralph Worgan and children of Thistletown spent Saturday with Mrs. J. Worgan. Mr. Maugham . has not "doctored" for some years as he has entirely given up the little black bag and stethoscope in favor of the typewriter, a medium with which he has written such remarkably successful plays and novels as "The Land\~ of Promise," "The Moon and Sixpence," "The Cirâ€" cle," and "Of uman Bondage." Paul Powell directed the story which Beuâ€" lah Marie Dix adapted for the screen. wWOODBRIDGE AGR. SOC.

Master Royal Rogers returned home on Saturday last from spending holiâ€" days with his cousin, Mrs. Bartley, at Whalen Islanl, Geargian Bay. 3 J. McCrossen acted as starter,Bruce Darnan was timekeeper and referee, and Robert Buchanan was announcer and clerk of course. The enthusiastic spectators greatly appreciated the splendid exhibition of fancy diving by the Misses Norgagte, Walsh and Baillie. A polo match between the Toronto Swimming Club and the West End, which was won by the latter by two goals to one, concluded the evening. 50 yards juvenileâ€"1 E. Carter, 2 J Hedges.

The racing was first class and the driving by the Carter brothers and Miss Peggy Wood, who is not yet 10 yéars ~old, was excellent. Another young lady to distinguish herself was Mollie Baillie, aged 10 years, who finâ€" ished second in the 50 <yard race afâ€" ter being practically left behind at the start. The first swimming meet of the seaâ€" son was held last Wednesday evening at the new bathing pavillion, Sunnyâ€" side, under the direction of Instructor Robert Buchanan. A large â€" crowd turned out and enjoyed the various events that took place in the Lake area in front of the pavilion. cuMMSIDE PAVILION HOLD FRST MEFT Swimming and Diving Exhibiâ€" tion Held Attention of a Large Crowd HUMBERVALE and son, Master Perry, are visiting and Mrs. T. Rogers l "A thing of beauty is a joy forever" and West Toronto is taking on features that are daily adding to this splendid section of the big. city. Many years ago, a very handsome store was built at the. corner of Pacific and Dundas "Streets and in keeping with the times, together with the advantages ‘gleaned, _a veranda was also built. Many pedesâ€" trians have taken advantage of the shelter from this veranda during wet and stormyâ€"weather and silent appreâ€" ciation alone marked theâ€"occasion. This went on for many years, but the eleâ€" ments also played their role and man‘s labours must needs give way to the storms of the times. Even the strongâ€" est edifices must bow to the elements. and so in this way this veranda which once. graced the outer. works‘ of <this building, calmly and ‘silently submitted to the â€"ravages of the weather. Graduâ€" ally it weakened, still standing strong though‘ until rain, snow, sleet and dry weather contracted and expanded the vital parts, giving the strong breezes their opportunity of weakening the grips. Weatherâ€"beaten, worn and swayâ€" ing, man again came to remove that, which, at ons time, graced the street as a new and modern edifice. . No more shall the weary pedestrians asâ€" semble under its hospitable roof to shelter from the stormy blasts or the sudden deluge, for this structure has now been removed to make way for the progress of the times and the safety of mankind. Once more only that which is beautiful adorns where once stood an untoward mark of the conâ€" trary. As usual the entries for the younger generation were well patronized and the enthusiasm was at its zenith during the running of these races. It was indeed very unfortunate that the rain intervened as it seriously interfered with the programme and the races were conducted under ‘difficulties induced by this unexpected turn in the weather. â€" _ Free Water The committee in charge left nothâ€" ing undone that would add to the aâ€" musement and comfort of the particiâ€" pants, and a feature was that hot water, milk and ice cream was supplied free of charge. The children were also the recipients of free baloons and the apâ€" plicants were many. It was a case of everybody _ happy, everybody gay. "Mary Galt" was the name of the doll for which a $10.00 doll was the prize for the guessing of the name. This proved a popular number on the proâ€" gramme and many and varied names were submitted.

The Officers The following is the list of officers who were responsible for this very successful and fourth annual picnic of the Canadian Pacific Recreation Club: Once a Beautiful Building Now Minus Its Outstanding Enâ€" vironsâ€"Will Miss Shelter Grand Reception The citizens of Galt were alive to the situation, having entertained this gala company on a previous occasion two years ago. Motor cars awaited the picnickers and convéeyed them to the grounds where arrangements had been previously made for their recepâ€" tion. The day broke beautifully clear but Jupiter Pluvius was introduced at a period that rather dampened the day more than the spirits of the assembly. An elaborate program had been arâ€" ranged for but this had to be curtailed owing‘ to the inclemency, of the weather. C LANDMARK REMOVED VERANDA DEMOLISHED to capacity No greater enthusiasm was expressed than that of the C.P.R. annual picnic which was held at Galt on Saturday last. More than thirtyâ€"five hundred people crowded the four trains that the Company provided in order that the employees of the company could avail themselyes of the opportunity to enjoy themselves for the day. The trains left North Toronto, Parkdale and _ West Toronto at regular intervals and this extended a wonderful privilege to those who availed themselves of this outing. Each train was crowded and the last train gathered in all those who waited until the last minute and it was filled Fourth Annual Proves a Popular Eventâ€"Interesting Program Provides Entertainment 24 hours THOUSANDS ATTEMD G.

He told her to put it back, which she did. There was one $20 bill, one $5 bill, eight $1 bills and a check for ‘$12.06. The women took all the money out of the till and held it up under Beatâ€" ty‘s chin, saying that she would tell his fortune and bless his money.
