Mr. Oaten and Mr. Ben- gough Present the Need of Greater Enthusiasm I be called safe. Sunday, July 30th, was observed as Dominion Alliance Day by the union congregations of the Methodist and Westminster Churches of the town, service being held in the Methodist Church. In the morning Rev. BIr. Oaten of the Alliance spoke and after explaining a few of the details as to the fact that the Dominion Alliance' was the only organization in the whole of the Dominion banded together with the sole object of fighting this great and national evil, also The Pioneer was the only paper devoting its entire energies along press lines to this work, gave some rather startling figures as to the advancement being made by the temperance enemies and their associates. Indifference on the part of many, bootlegging and many other law breaking manoeuvers on the part of those wishing to discredit the good of the present temperance legislation was responsible for much of this. On the other hand lack of funds pre- vented the Alliance from putting on a propaganda to counterbalance much of this evil. They were unable to put forth a campaign showing the evils of this traffic in strong drink and be- cause much of it was done behind closed doors, so to speak, those not vitally interested were not aware of the awfulness of the trade being car- ried on and the subtle yet deadly' in- fluence at work to wrest the present hardly-won victories from the Tem- perance people. _ The transportation problem was solved to a great degree for the west end when the portion of Weston Rd., South, that has been under construe- tion was opened up. By reason of this part being closed for repairs, traffic detoured to the North and as that road was getting in bad shape by rea- son of the heavy traffic, much re- lief was effected when the southern section was completed. However, its life is limited as the recent rains have dope their part in breaking it up. The fact that the road has two slight rises, gives the water a chance to rush down either side and wash out the bottom. Consequently many holes have been caused and the road is assuming the conditions before work was put on. At present men are on the job filling in these holes with a Composition, but extremely heavy traffic warrants some- thing heavier than a country surfaced road. This road is the main artery to the west and as Mt. Dennis and Wes- ton use this part almost exclusively, there is considerable traffic thereby. This also means that traffic to the, city is greatly inconvenienced by 'rea- son of this handicap and any other good roadway would prove a valuable outlet. If it is the clean-up deal that 'is retarding permanent roadways in this section, then it is hoped that im- ‘ mediate action will be taken since we have made remarkable strides towards having this deal straightened away. Traffic Congested , It is readily seen that building oper- ations are in full swing in this part of the city and townsmp owing to the great numbers of sand and gravel wag- gons that use this road daily. Black Creek hill is the stumbling block and every morning several heavily-laden waggons may be seen astride the road' and incidentally holding up the traffic. The drivers, naturally, have a little consideration for their horses, and give them a much needed rest on this heavy pull. As part of the road is still in the rought and the remainder has an asphaltic surface, it means thath teamsters, both going and coming, stop their horses and the slow march commences. Then the motorist is in a quandary. The careful driver and the Speeder both meet and many nar- row escapes result, although several accidents have been recorded on the hill. More stringent traffic regula- tions will have to be put into effect before this part of the highway can illllilllilflll ALLIANBE JllillljlTWillllllifi In the evening Rev. Forbes Robertson conducted the opening service of Hymns and prayer, then introduced the speaker, Mr. Ben- gough. t . . _ _ - Mr. Bengough, with the clever man- ipulation of chalk and blackboard, put,the case in a very concrete form, and‘in such a convincing manner that none could fail to be impressed with the seriousness of the situation and realize that if we as a Christian people intended to keep alive to our duties and responsibilities, we must be up and doing else like the Sluggard who slept while it was yet day, we might awake and cry aloud, "Too late! while we slumbered the thief entered by the door and stole from us our dearest and most precious possessions." Ow- ing to our present gained victories our children are not saddened. with the sight of ruined homes, drunken par- ents and debauchery as in the days 'before prohibition, so we must teach them the evils of strong drink that they will abhor it, turn from it and pass it by. Knowledge is not inherit- ed; we cannot hand it down from father to son. Therefore what our fathers learnt from the then prevalent conditions, we must teach our children its evil, that they will fight against (its return. Indifference because we l do not suffer from its results is one of the greatest foes of a strong temper- ance campaign. Then to-day our young people are too much given over to pleasure, they do not take things serious, do not read and study the problems facing the nation and there- New Piece is Not Standing Up _ After Time and Money Has Been Spent HUADWAY NEUT EQUAL n HEAVY THAFHI] WESTON ON%WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2ND, 1922 WEST YORKS NEWSY WEEKLY A movement long talked of in Weston Real Estate ‘circfes is at last under ways namely, the pulling down of Shoddy Row. Although the build- ings are unsightly and a drawback to the growth of the community, a feel- ing of sadness creeps over .one as you watch the ruthless work of the wreck- ers. A sudden jerk and down tumbles a heap of mortar, timber and plaster, all that at one time went to make a, home for some one. If the old walls could speak,.what stories they would reveal; new homes established; visions of future prosperity talked over by the young couple just starting out in life beneath the shelter of the. cosy little homes. Many of these have been realized, and others have been shattered. Today only one family re- mains and they will soon be flitting. A few weeks and Shoddy Row will be but a memory; a few years and it will be forgotten. In its place will spring up modern homes and possibly busi- ness sites to keep pace with the growth of the town. One more in- stance of the fact, "There is no stand- ing still." The property when cleared will provide Weston with another beautiful residential site on the banks of the Humber and we can look for- ward to the time when as in the days of former prosperity the old gardens blossomed and shed forth their beauty and fragrance for the joy and pleas- ure of the people, so again will beau- tiful homes and gardens spring forth from the desert waste of the past few years. fore are in ignorance of the terrible forces at work by the enemies of this movement. Another menace to its progress and safety is the leaguing to- gether of the so-called respectable citizen with the bootlegger, the worst law-breaker of our land, because he has behind him his money, the sanction of the man high up in society and prominent in state affairs, and in at least two of our provinces theigov- ernment. These two provinces with liquor under government control boast of their revenue, allow all who will to come under the safety flag of their boundaries, manufacture the liquor and find a market for it in the lands where the legalized sale and manufae- ture of it has been prohibited. On the other hand, with a law prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors, we are confronted with three evils, the sale of native wines which, under certain conditions contain a large amount of alcohol; secondly, doctors may prescribe for medical purposes up to forty ounces, and to quote their own words, they are besieged with ap- plications for this remedy which in the majority of casse are sham excuses of bodily ills; also the manufacture of beverages containing 2%% alcohol. If alcohol is injurious in large quantities surely it is injurious at all times and this drink will be consumed by many to their own hurt.

[ The need for fighting ,this evil is great; the danger of losing what we have gained is imminent if we do not educate the rising generation to its evils: The prohibition law enjoyed in Canada is subject to the will of the people-turn the tide against it and fight strong enough and we will lose what our fathers sought so hard to gain for us. Let us as a Christian nation see to it that the bootlegger and the lawbreaker does not steal our victory and turn Canada into a land where strong drink is allowed to reign supreme, bringing want and sorrow to our homes.

The annual exhibit of flowers and vegetables will this year be held on August 24thl and 25th, ind promises to be one of the best. The committee are busy compiling the prize list and will have it ready for distribution dur- ing the next few weeks. Following is the list of prize winners for the past week: The last of a series of summer flower shows under the direction of the Weston Horticultural Society was held on Friday and Saturday of last week. G. M. Lyons' large window, where the exhibit was held, presented a very pleasing appearance with its vases of many colored and varieties of bloom. The committee are to be congratulated on the educational fea- tures of these exhibits, placing before the public, as they have done week by week, the different perennials and annuals blooming in the season, and thus showing how to obtain continu- ous bloom throughout the season. The people have also been very, gienerous A Riot of Bloom Greets the Pub- lic at the Final Summer Ex- hibit of Flowers Held LAST SUMMER SIN M THIS EISll Weston's Young Musicians Cap- tivate the Hearts of Many at Anglican Garden Party A few pieces were played in the grounds and then some on the main street to attract the people. On re- turning to the grounds a good supper was ready for the hungry musicians, which they enjoyed to the full. A pro- gram was then put on by the band, consisting of selections, solos, duets and quartettes. Masters Billie Sains- bury and Adrian Louw captivated the crowd with several duets. These are believed to be the youngest cornet players in Canada. A quartette form- ed of Mr. Sainsbury and his three boys, Horace, Wilfred and Lloyd, also drew much applause. We are also indebted to tHe press for the publicity they have given_us. We also wish to thank the trades- men who have so generously allowed us the use of their store windows. Also to Mr. H. Jennings, who' has acted as judge at each show. I am, sir, Yours faithfully, WALTER J. PALLETT, Last Saturday the boys' band went to the Anglican Church garden party at Caledon East. Leaving the town hall at 3.30 irr Mr. La Rose's largest truck, made comfortable by seats and springy automobile cushions,they jour- neyed through Thistletown, Ebenezer, Clairville and other places en route, and arrived at their destination about 5.30 after a tiring but none the less exciting ride. . Until after our Annual Exhibition the weekly show will be discontinued, whgn we hope to start them again. About ten o'elock the boys made ready for home and arrived in town as the clock .struck midnight. The band was pleased to have with them Mr. and Mrs. Robinson, Mrs. G. Sains- bury, Mr. Cousins and Mr. A. Sains- bury. Their next engagement is at Ye Olde Countrie Faire, Mount Den- nis, on the 5th and 7th of the month. pu BUYS” HAND PLAYS AT Jllflllll EAST There should be a county super- vision of all jitnies driving on the Wes- ton Road. At the present time these men have to secure a license at the first of the year from the city and the township. Then they are responsible to no one unless they run someone down or do some damage. At the present time they evidently think that they have complete controll of the road. In West Toronto at Keele St., [ it is impossible to get along at certain times because these fellows block up the road on both sides and the cars trol the centre of the road. At school road they stop on both sides of the street and leave about the width of a car for the traffic to pass by. At Eglinton Ave., they block the traffic and liable‘to run you off the road with their short turns at this point. Any- one who investigates the conditions of the road will agree that it is high time that these men are placed under con- trol. The township of York council and the city council and Weston Coun- cil should for the safety of the public take the matter up and arrange to see that these men have some definite stoppirig place. This action became necessary at Dundas St., and all the jitnies are called upon to park Mavety St. The same can be done along the Weston Rd. No cars should be parked at Keele St., and Dundas St., but on Vine St., at this point. All cars should be made to stop at the first street north of Dennis Ave., in Mount Dennis anlsro parking on the West Rd. The same at Eglinton Ave. If this were done it would mean much to the traffic on the road. Action taken by the councils will bring about the changes needed. Traffic on this road has become very heavy and thus the need of greater precautions. Coal Shortage Hampers Railway and Forces Them to Reduce Passenger Service Owing to the shortage of coal the G.T.R. System have been forced to reduce the number of trains operat- ing at the present time. This will mean considerable to the service hith- erto given Weston. The morning train formerly going west at 7.16 a.m. now leaves at 7 a.m.; the 9.22 a.m. going west has been cancelled; also the 4.25 p.m. going east; the 8.03 a.m. has been changed to 8.13 a.m. and the 7.30 p.m. going .west to 8.32; following is the present schedule: Going East Going West 8.13 a.m. 7.00 a-m. 12.19 p.m. 1.27 pm. 7.15 p.m. 4.00 p.m. 9.08 p.m. 7.32 p.m. Elif SlEllllf (lf ll, T. l TRAINS These Men Are Blocking Road -A Menace to Travelling Public SUPERVISION (lf JITNEY SERVIEE LETTER TO THE EDITOR Chairman Flower Committee 7.00 a-m. 1.27 pm. 4.00 p.m. 7.32 p.m. 1gllff IETHE DATE UN Mil LABEL?
