On Thursday evening of last week the executive board of Westminster Church gave homage and honor to the members of the church choir in the form of a banquet rendered to the choir as a slight token of appreciation for the valuable, useful and ever pleasing services render voluntarily by them Sunday, after . Sunday, which was a stimulus to the church, assistance to the pastor, also a pleasure and profit to the congregation as they listened to the service of praise rendered by the choir. â€" The tables, which were most prettily decorated with yellow mariâ€" golds and red carnations, the same colâ€" or scheme being carried throughout the room,. . flags .and »bunting:â€"being used most effectively and presented a very pleasing picture to the choir members and friends and guests, who numbered about one hundred.

On Friday afternoon, May 18th, the annual summer meeting of West York Woman‘s Institute will:be held at the home of Mrs. John Love. Mrs. K. S. Aitken, of Beeton, will be the special speaker, and in addition to this a short musical programme, under the direcâ€" tion of the local Branch, will be given. The subject for the afternoon will be "The Busingss of Being a Woman." The speaker is one well versed in the art of telling a story, and has a fund of interesting material to draw from. Allâ€"are assured of an interesting afterâ€" noon, and a cordial invitation is issued by the hostess to all members and friends to attend. "Mothers‘ Day" was commemorated in a very special manner on Sunday evening . in _the Weston â€" Methodist Church, mothers taking entire charge of the service,; Mrs, (Rev.) Walwyn giving the message, which she deliverâ€" ed in a very pleasing yet forceful manâ€" ner, bringing home to the parents the great responsibility, and trust imposed upon themâ€"by the sacred rites of moâ€" therthood, taking for the basis of her remarks "Mothers as found in the bible and outstanding characters in history." Away back in the old Jewish time, be} fore Christ, the mather of Moses had dared to defy the ordér of the king through! love for hér bonny baby boy. Later she had trained hint so that when he faced the greatest temptation of his life the plitter and glamour of the king‘s court was as nothing compared to duty, and he became the liberator and leader â€" of God‘s chosen people. Hannah, the mother of Ssamuel, had so nutured her child in his early years and dedicated him to . the service of the temple that God called hinm when but a lad to greater service and lhe was ready and willing to obey. . Elizabeth, the moâ€" ther of John the Baptist, was given the promise of a son who would be the forerunner of the Messiah through her faith in God, and Mfiry, the mother . of Jesus, was one of, the purest of charâ€" acters, and her attitude , at the cross stamps her as a true mother, for it is recorded of her ;‘$And at the cross near by stood Mary, his ‘Mother‘." As a contrast she quoted the. mother of Nero, cold unscerupulous and a murderâ€" ess, then turning to the more pleasant theme, that of succeess, she spoke of Burns andâ€"Carlyle, how their mothers had loved poetry and on down through the history how great mothers had left their imprint on the lives of sons and daughter and men who had risen to fame and honor ascribed their success to the early teaching, training and ideals of mother. As a last. example she spoke of Sussanah Wesley, the moâ€" ther of the founder of Methodism. Their home, a.small rectory, a meagre income and a family of thirteen childâ€" ren to be cared for, clothed and fed, yet this saintly mother found time to instill into the minds of these boys and girls the fundamentals of true living, and when the call to sacrifice came, Charles Wesley stood forth and called the people to a fresh consecration of themselves to God, and out of one of the greatest revivals the world has ever known came Methodism. . Several seâ€" lections were . given, by the mothers‘ choir, also" awsolo; <‘How I Miss You, Mother, Miss You," by Mrs. Jackson. The altar was prettily decorated with white carnations and green foliage, and at the close of the service a special tribute was paid to one of the mothers of the congregation in the person of Mrs. Wm. Ellerby, who has the honor of being the imember of the Ladies‘ Aid Society, when little Miss Muriel Scrace carried to her one of the bouduets of white carnations: whichhad been used in the floral decorations.

Credit to Officials Township of Etobicoke Council held a special meeting on Thursday even> ing last when the reports from Messrs. Clarke, Houston & Co., chartered acâ€" countants,‘ were read and adopted. These reports were given in detail covâ€" ering the minutest expenditures in conâ€" nection with township affairs for the past fifty years. After a thorough inâ€" vestigaton and careful survey of books, in. the: receipts and‘ expenditures, byâ€" taws and all business pertaining to the Township of Etobicoke, the auditors gave forth this gratifying and praiseâ€" worthy »statement as to the accounts being accurate in every.detail and all accounts properly tabulated. This find~ ing is indeed creditable to the members of the present council and also to. those serving before in this capacity and the ratepayers of Etobicoke have every reason to be gratified and pleased with the men they have chosen from year to year to conduct the municipalâ€"affairs and guard their interests. Another feaâ€" ture and one reflecting credit on the present«council is the fact that after all liabilities and revenues have been summed up, the township of Etobicoke has a surplus of $39,505.60 to her creâ€" dit. The audit also shows the business of the township to have been carefully and systematically administered by those in charge. The investigation of York Township recently showed a laxâ€" ity along these lines, which is entirely absent in the Etobicoke books, and the citizens and ratepayers can rest assurâ€" ed of their interests being carefully looked after and handled at a miniâ€" mum. cost. Too much credit cannot be given the township officials in view of this satisfactory report just issued by the official accountants. / FTOB WEST YORK WJ The annual summer meeting in conâ€" nection with West: York Women‘s Inâ€" stitute will be held on the. following days and places during This month.
