TIMES-EXPRESS ... ... ... .... Miss Clayton is seen as a steno- grapher who marries an extravagant real estate agent, and as his wife makes personal sacrifices and practices the strictest economy in order to balance his indiscretions as a spender. By the most rigid saving, she manages to save two thousand dollars from her house- hold allowances; intending to buy a little home. But the time comes when her husband must have some money, and, knowing he will not consider it an obligation if she gives her savings to him direct, she makes it appear that A novelty, a decided change from the usual in photodrama, "Borderlattd," a Paramount picture, starring Agnes Ayres, at the Oakwood, August 2i'25- 26. Popular Star Seen as Office Girl, Then as Economical Wife, in Big Production. a friend is loaning it to him. In time this arrangement is revealed by the jealous wife of the friend and the hus- band quarrels with his wife and in a rage leaves her. After some dramatic complications all ends happily. The picture is an adaptation by El- mer Rice of Mark Swan's play. Joseph Henabery directed and Miss Clayton is supported by Warner Baxter, Charles French, Clarence Burton, Mae Busch, Jean Acker and Roscoe Karns. The following is a resume of the‘ work done in York county under the) Department of Bublie 1,ytraryl The total approved expenditures 1n‘ York county amounted to 8488,-) 741.65. After: providing $32,000 for‘ bridge work, exclusive of small cul-) verts, $44,000 for repairs and main-. tenance and $8,000 for superintt?nd; ence,' machinery and other iciden-) tals, there was left 8399,16g.29 for road building. This consisted of 71/2 miles of bituminous macadam, 161/2 miles of macadam and gravel, and 3% miles of asphaltic concrete surfacing. The bituminous macadam surfacing is on roads that have previously been constructed of waterbound macadam. Two miles of asphaltic concrete sur- facing was done on the Kingston road, east from Toronto, also a mile and one-third on the Weston road, north from Toronto. Six thousand feet of asphaltic concrete on a concrete _ base was completed in Aurora, and the same amount is being laid in New- market. Concrete bridges were con- structed at Islington and Unionville. Ethel Clayton, popular Paramount star, who recently has been seen in several society dramas in which she wore some of the most gorgeous crea- tions in feminine wearing apparel ever designed, plays the neatly tailored of- fice girl, and later the economical housewife, in her latest starring vehi- cle, “Her Own Money," which opens at the Oakwood Aug. 21-22-23. "Borderland" gives two complete plots for the price of one, presents two separate sets of characters-- and offers the star three differing charac- terizations. The supernatural is elev-. erly used to enhance the dramatic ef- feet. The story tells of a young wife, tempted to desert her husband, who is led back from the brink of a mistake by the pdviee of the spirit of an ances- tor who had suffered from a similar error in 1850. l NO GORGEOUS GOWNS IN NEW CLAYTON FILM "HER OWN MONEY" Young ladies' race-Marguerite Ma- guire, G.

The second annual reunion picnic of the Maguire family was held in Spring- bank Park on Wednesday, when about 150 members of the family met and enjoyed a pleasant afternoon. The family has been established in this part of the country for,four gen- erations, the first members coming from Ireland in the early part of last century to become pioneers of Me- Gillivray Township. A2uite a number of connections of the family still reside in that township and throughout the northern part of the county, but many have migrated to other parts of Can- ada and the United States. A register taken at the picnic contained several names of members present from To- ronto, Weston, Mackinac Isle and Forest. Many acquaintances were re- newed and many unheard-of relatives The party gathered about 1.30 o'clock and spent the first hour in get- ting acquainted and then indulged in an interesting program of sports until supper time. After supper a lively game of base- ball was played, which resulted in a score of 7-10. The results 6f the sports were as follows: _- -- discovered.

Consid- ering the poor grip for any of the dashes, the time was remarkable. A few watches caught the winner in 24 I-lf sec. Discus throw--1, A. Stewart, Toron- to J'olice, 116 ft. 41/3 in.; 2, K. L.

Ponton ran better and was able to make second place by a very narrow margin. 16-lb Hammer Throw-l, A. Stew- art, Toronto Police, 116 ft. 9 inches; 2, Jno.

Thompson, Hamilton Coll. Time, 4.42. Scholes led until a couple of hundred yards from the finish, when Barnes put forth a wonderful effort, drew away and won by a nice margin. Barnes lost a shoe in the stretch, and put up a great exhibition in view of the ordinary track. _ Half mile-I, Thos. P. McKay, Cent- ral Y.; 2, A. G. St, Clair, Gladstone A.C.; 3, Arnold Bennett, London Y. Time, 2 minutes 7 2-5 seconds. Ben- nett started out fast and maintained his lead until the stretch when McKay and St. Clair, who had been running easily, moved up. The three fought it out, but McKay was just a little the best and was 10 feet in front at the tape.

Three-mile walk-I, Charles L, Barnes, West End Y.; 2, H. W. H. Leask, Central Y.; 3, Roddney Hall, West End Y.; time, 24 minutes 29 sec- onds. Barneer was easily the best, and won by more than 1-4 mile. The Ontario Championship Track and Field sports were held at Orillia on Saturday last. The weather was ideal but the poor condition of the track stopped any of the athletes from breaking records. The entry list was a large one and athletes from Mon- treal and Ottawa were present. R. Hull of Mt. Dennis, was the only entry from West York. This seems a poor shoyr- ing for such a large district. Why is it our boys do not enter into track and field sports? Is it because there is not enough encouragement on the part of our Athletic clubs? Why not hold a large athletic meet at the forthcom- ing Weston Fair? The track is ideal and our local boys would derive con- siderable experience from competing with outside athletes. A large athletic meet always draws a big crowd, so it would be to the benefit of the' Fair to hold one this Fall.
