WESTON PROGRESGING NEW WATER MA After considerable agitation the Wesâ€" ton Water, Power and Light Commisâ€" sion now find themselves in a position to add to the present system, which will be in the new parts of Weston now beâ€" ing built. New sewerage system is beâ€" ing installed on John Street and at the lower end of the town in order to reach the new parts that are rapidly building up in many sections. This means conâ€" siderable to our town as it will cerâ€" tainly increase the value of property where this sewerage disposal and waâ€" ter system is so necessary for the deâ€" velopment and progression of the disâ€" trict. Contracts being let for the building of the sidewalk, Mr. G. Moogk, who has the contract, has started upon the work, and is now building the first sidewalk on Lemaire Ave. The other walks will be started immediately and thus a big step towards the progression of the town made. This progresâ€" sion means but one thing, namely, that the Town of Weston is going ahead and is surpassing all other towns in graspâ€" ing the opportunities offered. Sewerage Disposal and Water is Now Being Installed for New Parts There are few towns surrounding Toâ€" ronto that have the opportunities that the Town of Weston presents to those seeking home sites. With our. good roads, our excellent water system and lighting, power and splendid town equipment, our schools and various orâ€" ganizations that are in good working order, we have something worth while to offer anyone who is seeking an ideal ‘situation in which to build a home. Don‘t be afraid to boost your town. Talk it to your friends, talk it to those whom you come in contact with, and thus do your bit towards the developâ€" wmentyof ine ‘Town ‘of Weston. \ Mr. H.. Musson,.one of our local well known men, has been the successful apâ€" plicant of the position, and the €own is fortunate to have secured such an excellent man., There were fiftyâ€"seven applicants for the position, and these were sifted down to seven. The qualâ€" ification of these seven men were very carefully considered by all the council from every angle. For a time the name of Mayor Flynn was very prominent, but he felt that owing to his present position he could not accept the posiâ€" tion that the town had offered him. The council then offered the position to H. Musson, and he accepted. Mr. Musson was born in Toronto, and came to Weston when quite young. Here he received his Public and High School education, graduating from the Weston High School later with honors. After an extensive business career in the City of Toronto, Mr. Musson reâ€" ceived a fine offer from a. financial house and went West, where he reâ€" mained until two years ago, when he returned back to his old home town, Weston. While in the West, Mr. Musâ€" son lost his wife, and Mrs. Wilby, his sister, took charge of the children. . In order to be home with his children, Mr. Musson accepted a position with a.trust and guarantee company, which he has filled up to the present time. In acâ€" cepting this position he does so with a feeling of the responsibility that has been placed upon him as Clerk, treasâ€" urer and assessment commissioner. Owâ€" ing to Mr. Musson‘s previous interâ€" course with all kinds of business, it is felt by everyone that he is the right man to fill the position. Mr. Musson is a Westonian and loves his town and has always had the interests of Wesâ€" ton and the welfare and development of the town at heart.â€" This new posiâ€" tion places him in a position to see that the development of this town is realizâ€" ed. All the citizens will find that Mr. Musson is a gentleman of the first waâ€" ters, capable of giving good service, and all can feel assured that the financial transactions of the town will be ably and conscientiously attended to. The initial salary at which Mr. Musson has accepted this position is two thousand dollars per year. Mr. Musson will enâ€" H. MUSSON APPOINTED CLEkX FOR WESTON After two months of careful invesâ€" tigation and enquiry and extensive adâ€" vertising, the position of commissioner, clerk and treasurer has been filled . ter on 13th. On Tuesday â€" morning little, Frank Pratt, aged 6, was knocked down by a car while crossing the road in front of the Post Office at Islington. Fortunâ€" ately, the man driving the car was not driving fast, and the fender, in knockâ€" ing the child, threw him clear of the wheels and the.car passed over him without hurt or injury, except for a small scratch on the arm. It was most fortunate that no serious consequences resulted from the accident. Little Frank had gone to the Post Office in comâ€" pany with the other boys and an adult, and had darted across the road to get his mail. The car was driven by a man from Niagara Falls, who was on his way to Sudbury, when he hit Frank and the car passed over him. Too much care and caution cannot be taken in order to prevent anyone from rushing across the road looking to:see that the way is clear on both sides. 3 Nee One of Weston‘s Boys Given a Responsible Position as 1 Commissioner SERIOUS ACCIDENT is duties on Monday, August NARROWLY AVERTED wWESTON, ONT.

Wiley. & The much debated five mile walk scheduled for August 6th on the Wesâ€" ton Rd. was a great success owing to the fact that local residents and merâ€" chants did all in their power to this end. The whole army of Toronto walkâ€" ers, were present besides entries from Mt. Dennis. ‘The array of talent was very diversified, ranging from _ mere youths to elderly â€"men. Of course, our friend Barnes, the Ontario champion, was present, and certainly gave a splenâ€" did exhibition of walking, as he had very keen competition from a Hamâ€" ilton entrant. Everybody, from judges down to spectators, were well satisfied with the splendid spirit of the contestâ€" ants, as in many cases the honors were hard fought for. The committee hand!â€" ing the race wish to thank the local merchants for the splendid support they gave, as every man finishing got a prize.

You recall your many visits to the various towns, how ‘these spots stand out clearly in your mind. When you reélate your incidents you tell of the beauty spots or the wonderful buildâ€" ings, but Weston is fairly abounding with beauty spots. They are unsurâ€" passed. It is these beauty spots which are fast bringing people to settle here and thus boost our town. Perhaps one of the most outstanding spots and yet not seen and recognized by many is the beauty spot that has been erected by Dr. E. F. Irwin on Little Ave. The beautiful home that he has built can well be pointed out to your friends as one of the prettiest spots around the town. The grounds are laid out with great care and some of the most wonâ€" derful collection of flowers and shrubs may be seen and are well worth your while to admire. If the town park opposite these grounds could be betâ€" ter kept it would make this an ideal location for building homes. When Showing Visitors Weston Remember to Point Out These Places As one passes up Main Street, the traveller does not readily realize the beauty that lies beyond the tracks on Rosemount Ave., King St., John "St., and Maria St. For a number of years Dr. Charlton has had a most lovely gar: den, filled with beautiful flowers and shrubs. These have stood out as one of the beauty spots to show your friends. King St. is fast becoming one of the prettiest streets in the town, with its lawns and shrubberies added to by the beautiful flowers. Another beautiful sight is that of J. M. Pearins. His rose garden and wellâ€" kept grounds always are a source of delight to the beautyâ€"loving citizens and stand out very prominently‘ beâ€" fore the visitors of Weston. _ After you have shown these.varâ€" ious spots to ‘your visitors, you will send them away well pleased with the town and more so with its many beauâ€" ty spots WESTON IREATRE IS APPEALING STRONGNY _ Those to whom the welfare of the Town of Weston is something worth considering will give every encourageâ€" mentâ€"possible to the Weston~ Theatre Limited. The response that was reâ€" ceived during the past week certainly shows that there are a vnumber who have thought the problems of the town out well and are prepared to give the men in charge of their proposition evâ€" ery possible assistance and encourageâ€" ment. Applications for the various shares have been coming in strongly, and it is hoped that within a very short period the necessary sum will be realâ€" ized. In order that the whole matter should be gone through with, and that Weston should receive this theatre, mo stone should be left unturned by the Weston citizens in seeing that the proâ€" moters of the company are given every encouragement and opportunity to go ahead.Our need for a theatre has been felt by the whole town and that the theatre will be a means of drawing the young people to home amusement is assured. It should also be a feature which will draw a number of people inâ€" to our town, weekly and thus prove a big item in the progression of the town. For the first time we are to have the proper_amusement of the proper type. But the main feature is that all those who invest their money in its welfare will be amply repaid for their coâ€"operâ€" ation. No man likes to give his money away. No man can afford to give his money away. But this is not giving your money away, it is simply subâ€" scribing for something that will be of the greatest benefit to our town, to our merchants, to our citizens, and to our children. In short, it will be a real big asset to the Town of Weston. Therefore, all the citizens to the extent of their ability should subscribe to this undertaking and make it possible to have a real amusement place for our young people, where they will not have to travel flo the city to get a night‘s enâ€" joyment. The Citizens Are Getting in Beâ€" hind the Local Projects of the Town Picture the Main Street of Weston on Saturday nights to be turning into the street seven or eight hundred peoâ€" ple who have been at the show! What does this mean to our stores, to our business men? What does it mean to the people in general? Hundreds are at the present time being turned into the street at St. Clair Ave., down town, or in the Junction. ‘There is no reason why we cannot do the same as this with the hundreds who would rather patronâ€" ize our home. amusementsâ€"if there were any to patromze. There is no way that you can look at this project withâ€" out realizing that the theatre will be a direct asset to the town. However, it is for the citizens of Weston to say whether this will be or will not be, and the coâ€"operation of every able man and woman is needed to see that this thing goes across.. Don‘t lose the opportunâ€" ity! Do what you can to bring this theatre to the Town of Weston! Owing to the fact that the children will be greatly disappointed if the liâ€" brary is closed during the total interâ€" val between Aug. 13th and Sept. 6th, it has been decided to have it opened on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays during that period.. . .. ;. ja _ LIBRARY CLOSED Bllllllllll‘lllululllllllllllllllllllllll“llllllll[IIIIIIIIHillnnulllllMlllllllullllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllnl‘ E tlII|llllllIIlllllllllllIlllIlIIIllIlIlIIIIlllllllllIlIllllIlIIIlIIIIIIIIlIlIl|llllllllllIllllll.l.llllll.llIllllllllllllllIllllllllllllmllll"lM Get your job printing from us Our Policy PHONES: WESTON 74 139 MAIN ST.
