Special decorations will be in the Church and Special Music will be rendered. In the morning, the Cooksville Choir will have charge of the music and in the evening the Is- lington Choir.

In the programme, which was under the charge of Miss Carr, Allen Young and President Stan- ley Evans, mention may be made of a reading given by Miss Myrtle Evans, . WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 27TH, 1922 UGeneral Conference Delegates are gathering into Toronto from all over Canada and faternal delegates are coming from all parts of the world. Toronto is the Mecca of Methodism these days and the neighbouring pul- pits are being filled by these 1repre- sentative people. Islington is enjoying the same thing. Last Sunday morning the Rev. H. W. Colter of Nahomis, Alberta, preached to a large and ap- preciative audience. ' TOWNSHIP OF ETOBICOKE "If Ill; mm (lllllffl FUR PHINTiNG Friday, September 29, and Saturday, September 30 ISLINGTON DURING SUBJECTS The "romliuson Methodist Sunday School observed Rally Day on Sunday. 'there was a splendid turn out, nearly every class had all their numbers pre- sent with the exception of a few who were away from home. The service began at two o'cloek. The Supt, was in charge. Mr. Bains, pastor, led in the Lord's Prayer while the_usual per- iod of Prayer was led by Mr. Hum- phries. The musical part of the pro- gramme was taken by Miss B. Row- bottom and Miss W. Crowhurst at the organ. Mr. Bains, pastor, and Mr. Robert Bains, violins, Mr. J. H. Allen, comet, Mr: Stokes of Howard Park, violincello. The programme prepared by the eo-operating boards was gone through and the Pageant was given with great effect by the girls in Miss M. Harris' class. It was well" Earried out and the costumes which were pre- pared by the girl, did certainly give the desired effect to the Pageant. Mr, B. Crowhurst, with the Lantern, gave with the different colored slides, help- ed very much to make it very spectae- ular. The service throughout was very impressive and if the spirit of the afternoon prevails during the Au- tumn and Winter, great things may be expected. A meeting of the Sunny Lea Rate- payers Association is called for Friday night,.0ct. 6th, at eight o'clock. Every last ratepayer is requested to make On Saturday afternoon last, the Teachers and Officers of the Tomlin- son Methodist Sunday School had a Picnic in High Park to which they in- vited the members of the Adult Bible classes and the Ladies Aid and the Home Dept., and also the Cradle Roll, members and the mothers of the babies leaving the Church in m tor cars.

A The Ladies of the Richview met with the Ladies Aid of Weston Me- thodist Church on Thursday last and spent a social afternoon together.

N THE BACON HOG WINNING THE GOLD SUNNY LEA RICHVIEW there is be con- Then came the Boy's Fancy work. (rd, bird houses were very good and evidenced some talent in their work. {The racks for Books were also fairly ‘good. After the Fancy work came a display of Pumpkins in a corner. There were some pumpkins). Then the girls' sewing and fancy work of which there was a large and good assortment and the work of the Girls in sewing and button-hole making was indeed good and if they keep it up it will mean great things in their future lives. In the front of the room on the floor was a great display of cabbage, and every one of good quality. On a strip of Burlap, along the front of the blackboard, at each end of the room, there was showing Art, Writing and Map Drawing. Mr. A. L. Campbell and Miss Campbell of Weston were the judges in these sections and their de-. cisions were well received. One of the big features of the Fair was the Pub- lic Speaking Contest. The pupils of the School lined up on the north side of the school, and headed by the School Flag, marched to the South side where the people were seated and sang The Land of the Maple, then sat down of the lawn and after which the contest took place. There were six entries in the two sections, the Junior and Senior Classes. Levina Carnish was the first speaker, her subject was "The Life of the Country Girl." Hazel _ Stanley followed with, “Beautifying‘ the Home." Beulah Reid's subject was "Cotton," Grace Tomlinson, "Cot- I fee" and Margaret Harts' “The Maple Tree." ln the Senior section, the fol- lowing pupils spokg: Robert Riley on “The Culture of the Garden." Ada Mitefarland on "The Gardener's Life." Marion Olmstead, "Canad the Land of the Maple." Helen Johnson, "Musko- ka, Its Rocks, Birds and Animals." Albert Collins, "Market Gardening." Wilma Halford, "Canada, the Land of the Maple.' Mr. A. L, Campbell, RS. L, kindly acted as Judge and the awards in the Juniors Section: Beaulah Reid lst, L. Cornish 2ad, Grace Tom- linson 3rd, Hazel Stanley 4th. In the Senior section, Wilma Halford 1st, Ada Macfarland 2nd, Albert Collins 3rd, Marjory Olmstead 4th. After which the Sports committee, under Mr. W. Stanley, took charge, and races, Baseball and Basketball games were indulged in. The refresh, ment committee in charge of Mrs. E. Whitworth, assisted by Mrs. Reid, Mrs. Macfarland, Mrs. Cornish, Mrs. Rowbottoni and others had a busy time during the afternoon and early evening they expeCted to do a big business and they were not disappoint- ed as they cleared off everything ex- eept a couple of dozen sandwiches which were afterwards disposed of. The results of the fair were such that the fair will become an annual affair as everybody had a good time and went home in the early evening happy. Building operations in connection with Westmount new Church is being rushed, and it is hoped in a short time services will be held in the new build- ing. The work accomplished by this Mission is most inspiring and encour- aging. The Star Radio Concert Company will give a concert at Weston Fair on Saturday, Sept. 30; at Cooksville on Oct. 4; Georgetown, Oct. 7. The Public School Fair on Saturday last was quite an event in the commun- ity and the school board were amply rewarded for their efforts in the suc- ces that followed. The display of Ex- hibits was very good, and the interest in everything pointed out that the fair was bound to be all that could be wished. On Friday afternoon, the eld- er boys under the direction of the Trus- tees, arranged the tables for the ex- hibits and at nine o'clock the school lboard was busy with the receiving of entries of the Exhibits, which were brought to the show in all kinds of ways. The wheel barrow and niotor truck being to the forefront of Trans- portation. The Judging took place at 10 o'eloek a.m. Mr.,Tomlinson and Mr. Ford (two old residents) judged vegetables and poultry. Mrs. J. At- kinson and Mr. Crowhurst had some job in the judging of the flowers and garden flower plots on the School Grounds. Mrs. Watts and Mrs. Atkin- son, also had some time in awarding the prizes to the cooking and Home- made candy Exhibits. Mr. Baker and Mr. Mason acted as Judges in the Boys Fancy work section, while Mrs. Crom- well and Miss Fox had something to do in the Sewing and Fancy work Ex- hibits of the Girls. No complaints were heard, however, of their work. The thanks of the Pupils and the School board are tendered to all the Judges for their excellent work and their kindness in undertaking the du- ties of Judging the exhibits. The Fair was opened to the Public shortly after two o'clock in the afternoon. On en- tering the South door of the school, the sight was fine. Arranged in a corner on the floor was a display of, dandy hubbard squash. Then followed, the exhibits of those who had home plots and who had grown their own exhibits. The collections were small here but what was shown were of good quality. Then came the Ladies cook- ing, which from some misunderstand- ing was small, as many of the ladies had the idea that it was only open to the mothers of the children in the School. It was meant to include all the ladies in the section, and when this was explained there was given the promise that at the Fair there should be "some cooking" shown.) The next exhibits were tomatoes (which were in the open class). Sunrise Tomatoes came first and when the other varieties followed. There was not many Pota- toes in the exhibits but what there was were a good stock. The apples exhibi- ted were of a fine class and the judges seemed to have something to do in reaching their decisions. All the col- lections were indeed very good. The radishes were fine but the exhibits few. The cauliflowers collection which came next, was something "worth while." The three cauliflowers in each exhibit were of an A1 class and everyone was good. Then came the mixed flower ex- hibits. Here a fine display of flowers of all varieties met the best quality and arranged bunch and there was surely some well arranged bunches but in some cases quantity not quality seemed to have been the object of the exhibitor, but there was many well ar- ranged bunches in the lot. I Exhibits by the School' Children Surpass Those of Other Years SUNNY ifl HELD THE ANNUAL FAIR RADIO CONCERTS THE TIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON A good exhibition game of soccer was played on Saturday, September 16, 1922, between Can. Allis-Chalmers and Moffat's at Davenport Road, resulting in a win for the home team by 3 to 1. Neither team was out in full strength, home team playing 4 reserves, while the visitors substituted three of their regular men with new players. The Weston boys lost the toss and unfortunately had to face a strong wind in the first half, which forced the game around their goal. Chalmers boys, taking advantage of this, were able to secure two goals by half time. Friday and Saturday will be two big days for Weston: The event talk- ed of for months and in the minds of the Fair Comittee in now here T.he Entry lists show a good exhibit. The Midway promises lots of fun, and the Races and Stock Exhibits will interest many. Something for everyone has been the motto carried out. Moffats got going a little better after the interval, and gave Chalmers a good run for their money. Dobbie scored the third goal for home team, when J. Bell, finding himself hard pressed, punted the ball with his fist, which Dobbie met with his head, placing ball neatly in the net. However, Weston boys worked hard and forcing the game to their opponent's end of the field, J. Johnson scored the only goal for Moffats. On the whole the game was clean, and Moffats deserve credit for the able manner in which they stood up to a team which is top of third league, and will possibly be rated as a see- ond league team next seasbn. Delegates attending the General Conference will preach in the Metho- dist Church at both services on Sun- day, October lst. f School Pupils will be interested to know,Mr. G. M. Lyons announcement this week. School colors for all caps for the High School Boys and Girls with the name of school printed on. These will add to the appearance of the school if worn by the scholars in the parade on Friday. Weston has al- ways been proud of her schools on Fair Day and all are looking forward to see them make a good showing again this year. I am so grateful that I want every- one to know what a priceless Jewel there is hidden away in that little town called Orangeville. In closing, would like to say I have one regret and'that is I wish we had taken our dear son Stanley up to Orangeville. If anyone, after reading this wishes td see me, I will only be too glad to ex- plain the nature of Nurse Austin's treatments and give, more details of all I know and the marvelous work done by nurse while I was at the Rest Home. Again thanking you for your valuable space, I am yours respectfully, Mr. Geo. Pollard, ' Main St., Weston. Will you allow me a short space in your valuable paper to express my gladness and gratefulness of being home and well again when I left Wes- ton to go to Nurse Austin's Rest felt I was in a hopeless condition, but after being with Nurse Austin and taking her wonderful treatment, felt a different person intirely. I could not speak sufficiently highly enough of all the benefits I have received un- der Nurse Austiri's care. Dear Mr. Editor:--.

We'll say he is when he came through and scored that goal. Look at what we would have missed last Thursday. Weston fans will be sorry to hear that Bill MacArthur, goal keeper of the Torontos, the daddy of them all, past and present, is lying in a sanitorum in North Ontario fighting to win out. Playing the game against greater odds than ever before to defeat the plague that has stricken him, lying on his cot pale faced he still has his old smile and his never failing courage. Special treatement is needed and he can be cured. Special treatement takes money. The Weston lacrosse club have come forward and have offered to play an all-star team, the entire proceeds to be turned over to assist Bill in his fight for health. ChristyMattheson, the great baseball player, was stricken the same Way, but is now out of danger. $20,000 was realized at a benefit game for him. He was no greater at his profession, no more a gentleman than Bill MacArthur. Boost for Bill, let's get behind the boys and make the gate worth while. Mon., Oct. 2nd.
