ANNUAL SHOWER â€" GRENFELL MISSION Later he presented a flag to the Memorial Lodge, Sons of England, given by the Supreme Council of the Sons of England, and left amid a blaze of fireworks, and with the hearty and prolonged cheering which he had received ringing in his ears, a tribute to himself as a friend and a soldier, and to his position as a connecting link between a loyal people and the Mother Land. \ The address was presented by J. Knox and the photographs donated by Alex. McGregor, Dr. W..H. Avery, Yorkâ€" Township Council and the Silâ€" verthorne Public School Board. The closing meeting of the season for the Weston branch of the Grenâ€" fell Mission was held on Friday last at the home of Mrs. Briggs, King St., and was largely attended. The beaâ€" tiful spring weather tempted many. to gather on the lawn as, well as in the spacious rooms and the hostess, assistâ€" ed by her two daughters, the Misses Briggs, gave the ladies a cordial welâ€" come. During the afternoon considerâ€" able sewing was completed, which finâ€" ished the work on hand, also a magniâ€" ficent donation of canned goods, tea, coffee and other foods were given by the members present and other friends interested in the work of this mission. In addition to this generous contribuâ€" tion, the sum of $11.15 was given, and this money will also be used in proâ€" curing canned foods for the bale, which will be packed during the first week in June and sent on its mission «of mercy as soon as navigation opens. The Veterans, wearing their decoraâ€" tions, formed a guard of honor as Lord Byng alighted from his car and proceeded to the Hall for the openâ€" ing ceremonies.. These closed in and marched past, while the: school chilâ€" dren, making a very pretty and effecâ€" tive picture in their costumes of red and white, received him in massed forâ€" mation, and gave him the military saâ€" lute. Weston Boys‘ Band, also dressed in their summer uniforms of blue and white, presented a striking picture, and provided music for the occasion in their usual capable, efficient manner. Arriving at the Hall, Baron Byng unveiled the autographed photographs of the King and the Prince of Wales, and replied to the illuminated address presented him by commending the vetâ€" erans‘ selfâ€"sacrifice and devotion to the Empire in the past, and voicing his pride in the spirit of the Canadians that he had first become acquainted with on the battleâ€"fields of France and" Flanders, and that he knew had surâ€" vived the Great War. To the two little whiteâ€"clad girts, Lorny Heathfield and Irene Fisher, esâ€" corted by Masters Haton and McGuire, who presented him with a huge bouquet of roses, the soldierâ€"staesman replied in a less dignified way by bending and kissing the little girls. A most delightful programme. was contributed in the way of instrumenâ€" tal duets by Mrs. Lyons and Mrs. Penâ€" drith, also Mrs. Rodgers and Miss Thompson, violin, and piano duet, Miss Adna Ryerson, accompaned by Mrs. Ryerson; reading, Mrs. Reaston, and vocal solo, Miss Hortense Clark. Mrs. Pendrith assisted as accompanist. These were all given hearty encores of apâ€" preciation. At the close of a very sucâ€" cessfulseason, _the Grenfell Mission members take this _ opportunity of thanking most heartily all who have, during the winter and spring season, worked so heartily and. well, sparing neither time or strength in an endeayâ€" or to send cheer and comfort to the folk of the . Labrador Coast, who, through climatic_ conditions, are deâ€" prived of so many blessings and priviâ€" leges bestowed upon us as our Onâ€" tario heritage. On Friday last, following an illness of several months, Mrs. Shirley, beâ€" loved wife of John Shirley, passed away at her home, Downsview.

ONT , of the Weston town this week Montreal, Haliâ€" WEST YORKS NEWSY WEEKLY On Wednesday afternoon last many friends of the~Women‘s Auxiliary of St. Philip‘s Church wended their way to the home of Mrs. James Irvine, John St., and spent a most sociable and enjoyable hour together. The Tea Room was most prettily decorated with marigolds and mignonette, .the sweet perfume of the latter pervading the house and mingling with the balmy spring breezes outside to the delight of all.. Here many were tempted to linger over the fragrant tea cup, dain: ty sandwich and appetising cakes served by those in. charge. â€" The pantry shelves and sewing table also commended ‘themselves, most highly to the ladies, and the receipts from these 81. PH assited materially in raising the sum of $60.00 as a reward for the labor of the various conveners and . their helpers. The hostess was assited in her dutics by the jexecutive of the W.A., whoâ€"gave all a most cordial welcome. An excellent program was also given by Mrs. E. F. Irwin, Mrs. Gerald Wynn, Mrs. Kennedy ‘and Miss Horâ€" tense Clark, who gave vocal selections most acceptably, also a violin and piâ€" ano duet, Misses IHene and Isabelle Moffat, and instrumental duets, Mesâ€" dames{Heron and Pendrith, also Mesâ€" dames Lyon and Pendrith. Mrs. Dr. Meldrum also added much to the pleaâ€" sure of all with her sympathetic renâ€" dering of the accompaniments for the vocal numbers. The W.A. members were much pleased with the success of their At Home, and thank most heartâ€" ily all who contributed in any manner to this end HAPPILY WEDDED FOR FIFTY YEARS The village of Malton was the seene of a very Jhappy gathering on Saturâ€" day last, when Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wilson, recent comers to: the village, celebrated their golden wedding anniâ€" versary. In the year and a half of their residence in Malton, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson have made many new friends, and these jJoined heartily with the old ones in wishing the aged couple many more years of happiness, health _ and prosperity together. Mr. Wilson was born in England 81 years ago, and came to Canada in 1863 at the age of 21 years, He settled in Snelgrove, and made that his home un‘ til removing, with the partner of his joys and sorrows to Malton, there to spend the remaining years of his life. Mrs. Wilson, who is a native of Peel County, was born at Mono Road 78 years ago, her maiden name â€" being Isabella Alexander. The marriage cereâ€" mony of fifty years ago was performed at the home ‘of the bride‘s parents, Mono Road, but it is thought that the bride and groom are the only survivors of that happy occasion. [ Many former neighbors and friends came from Snelgrove to attend the anâ€" niversary, and with Mr. and Mrs. Wilâ€" son were their children, of whom eight survive, James, Regina; Robert, Orâ€" angeville; George, Islington; Mrs. C. W. Taylor, Miss Jennie, Toronto; Mrs. Ernest Tomlinson,; Malton; Mrs. W. Partridge, â€" Mrs. . George Moffatt, Brampton.. There are also nine grandâ€" children, and the interest in the oc€caâ€" sion‘ was enhanced by the fact that three of these were â€"baptized by Rev. H. 0. Hutcheson of Malton. A veritable wedding feast was spread in honor of the day, the table being very tastefully decorated with yellow ribbons and flowers, the golden tint being in evidence all through the house. To mark the event in a fitting manner, Miss Jennie Wilson, on behalf of the children and grandchildren, presented her father and mother with a purse of gold, the aged recipients replying to this evidence of their children‘s esteem, in suitable language. Speechâ€"making. by . the sons and daughters, and by old friends from Snelgrove, followed the supper, and the remainder of the evening was spent in recalling days long gone by, good wishes for the future were showered upon Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, accompanâ€" ied by earnest hopes that the future may hold many anniversaries for them.

MAXY30, 1924 Arrangements are all completed by the committée in charge for the annual outing of the York Pioneer and Hisâ€" torical Society to be held at Sharon on June 2nd. (Last. year the attendâ€" ance was by far the â€"largest of any since the inauguration, and this year bids fair to break this record. Meet at Sharon Temple Inseparably united with _ the early history ‘of York county is the story of the ‘Children of Peace," whose anâ€" rual feast the meeting commemorates. This sect, formed by David Willson about the year 1820, was one of the noteworthy features of the early days in Sharon and the vicinity of Newâ€" market. Their chief monument is the famous Sharon Temple, which will be the scene of the June gathering of the Pioneer Society. : The Children of Peace somewhat reâ€" sembled. the Quakersâ€"to which sect Willson formerly _ belongedâ€"in their manner of Jlife and religion. Two feasts yearly were held, marked by an illumination of the Temple and a proâ€" cession through the streets of Sharon, following «which addresses were delivâ€" cred \by ‘Willson, who claimed to reâ€" ceive his messages from God. In 1879 the Sunday services of the sect were discontinued, but it was not until 1887 that the great feast was held for the last time. The peculiar architecture of Sharon Temple is well worth a visit of inâ€" spection. Modelled somewhat after the rreat Temple of Solomon, the building was completed by the Children of Peace according to many unique rites. All work was done in silence, and no nails were used in the construction in order that the ground dedicated to it might not be disturbed by the. clatter of hammers. The whole day will be given over to this commemorable event. Special cars will leave Toronto end of the Metropolitan radial at 10 a.m. city time, and those attending are asked to provide lunch baskets, in order to serve a picnic dinner, but any unable to comâ€" ply with this request will be amply provided for at the Park. One of the features will be the display of hisâ€" torical reliecs which are kept securely under lock and key in the Temple Building. At 2 p.m. addresses will be given by Hon. I. B. Imcas, R. J. Fleming and other prominent menâ€"of York County. Another interesting event will be the baseball match between _ the Indian team ‘of Georgina Island and the Newâ€" market boys. Music will also be proâ€" vided.
