The bandmaster, Mr. Sainsbury, realizing the importance of "Nothing but the best from Weston and for Weston," has opened up a Uniform Fund, to which any donations of monâ€" ey may be subscribed Moffat Stove Co., Ltd. C eC HAM E. oA ons The committee felt that in doing this, more _ interest. would_ be stimulated among the local ladies, and the ladies‘ department of the Fall Fair made of more interest, due to increase in numâ€" ber of local exhibitors. Weston Boys‘ Band take this opporâ€" tunity of publicly tharking the followâ€" ing local firms and professional men for their kindness and generosity in the donations made by them to the Band Uniform Fund. With the growth and development of the band a larger number of memâ€" bers have been enrolled, also the growth of years has added to the height and size of the boys. Then as with all other wearing apparel, age has its limit, and from time to time garments have to be replaced with new ones, which all means an additional expense and drain on the funds of the band. The uniform adds greatly to the apâ€" pearance of the band, and none of Weston citizens would care to see Wesâ€" ton Boys‘ Band going from place to place in answer to the many calls made upon them dressed in their ordinary clothes. A motion was passed limiting comâ€" petition in ladies‘ work to bona fide residents of Weston, Etobicoke, York and North York Townships, also to eliminate the professional class in this department. _ . Dr. E. F. Irwin Rule/ 10 was amended so that a horse may be shown both as an inâ€" dividual and as one of a team, on payâ€" ment of an extra entry fee. A few changes were also made in the classâ€" es for poultry and flowers. The most striking change in the list is one dealing with Juvenile Classes and ladies‘ work; these will both be entirely revised. Â¥ork County‘s first . Rural Play Competition was held in the Masonic Hall, Richmond Hill, Friday evening, June 18th. It was pronounced a real success by all who attended, the hall being filled even before the hour set for _ starting. Crowds motored long distances to support the groups from their communities. The main business. of (the evening was the consideration of the prize list, and some changes made which the diâ€" rectoos feel confident will add to the popularity and growth of the show, giving it a more personal touch with the town and community it serves. The competition consisted of three "Oneâ€"Act Plays" presented by three different Rural Community Clubs. Prizes being awarded on the manner in which the plays were presented. Each of the clubs presented their act in a manner which reflects credit on those taking part. It was apparent that a great deal of time and effort had been put forth to bring their acts up to the standard which they set. The interest of the audience was held throughout the evening by the many amusing and sometimes thrilling situaâ€" tions which occurred in the different acts.

See the Fun The audience apparently _ found it difficult to pick a winner, but the judges were able to arrive at a deâ€" cision after some consideration, and gave the prizes as follows: This competition is a part of the program of the York County Junior Farmers‘ Association and Junior Inâ€" stitutes, assisted by the Department of Agriculture. _ We certainly hope this work will be continued and enlarged to embrace other lines of similar acâ€" tivities, At a meeting of the Board of Direcâ€" tors of the Weston, York, North York and Etobicoke Agricultural Society, held on Saturday evening, June 20th, the resignation of Mr. H. Cousins was accepted and Mr. Gordon Eakin electâ€" ed to fill the vacancy. The secretary was instructed to write to a number of men who were selected as judges, for the purpose of securing their asâ€" sént to act in this capacity, and was also instructed to secure tenders for tents for use at the fall fair, which will be held this year Sept. 22nd and 23rd.

TIQN HELD 50 00 25 00 15 00 NG Charles Kamm, introduced by Counâ€" cillor _ Beardall as the head of the Metropolitan Bus Line, Limited, a loâ€" cal company at present operating on the Weston Road, offéred in the event of the defeat of the byâ€"law for the acquisition of the Toronto Suburban, to put on a fleet of buses adequate to cope with all traffic between West Toronto and Weston, giving a through service for five cents straight.. The town would not be asked to give any guarantee and the licenses and perâ€" mits would of necessity be obtained from the Provincial Highways Departâ€" ment. ‘The present fare on the T.S.R. and the Tâ€"T.C. to Keele St. and Dunâ€" das St. is 12 cents, with transfer to anyâ€" part ‘of the~ city. ‘The Canadian National, he went on to say, is anxious to unload on Wesâ€" ton a losing proposition and the‘ yearâ€" ly deficits will become increasingly heavy. with‘ the inroads made by the developments of the motor bus. Mr. Editor:â€" In view of the coming vote on the street car question, the citizens who formed the Street Car Association feel that‘ enough has been said to enable all voters to make up their minds. We still feel that street cars is the only method of transportation that possessâ€" es the regularity and stability that will give the public the confidence that is necessary to place Weston in fair comâ€" petition with the rival towns surroundâ€" ing Toronto. Let us do business in a bigger way and don‘t forget that next Saturday your vote for the byâ€"law means more to Weston than anything you ever did. Get out and vote YES for the street car byâ€"law. E. F. IRWIN, A strong supporter of the Battery and Bus Service, and directly opposed to the Suburban Purchase Deal, claimâ€" ed the reduction from $80,000 to a $25,000 vote to be taken by the town, was a sign of weakening on the part of the council as to the advisability of the purchase, also claiming if Wesâ€" ton passed the $25,000 byâ€"law it stood committed to the carrying out of the whole scheme of rehabilitation. Dear Doctor:â€" There has been no permit granted to any bus operators to operate on the Weston Road. . The whole matter is standing in abeyance, as far as we are concerned, until the municipalities de cide regarding the street car service. Sincerely yours, GEO. S. HENRY, Councillor Beardall _ was the chief speaker, taking up considerable time in the reading of a report from the T.T.C. relative to population, rates, etc., governing the operation .of the same. Office of Minister of Public Works and Highways. j With reference to the Weston transâ€" portation problem. There is one outâ€" standing point for serious consideration by the ratepayers of Weston that seems either to have been overlooked or igâ€" nored, for it has never been stressed at any public meeting held so far./ It is in connection with the Toronto Transportation Commissions own street car system, and its planned developâ€" ment for future success, published in the electric railway journalsâ€"extracts of which have appeared in your valuâ€" able paper. Dr. E. F. Irwin, Weston, Ont The Editor, ‘ Times & Guide, Weston Dear Sir:â€" Counter attractions in the way of bowling, golf, lacrosse and the Townâ€" ship Sunday School Convention were responsible to a large degree for the small attendance at. the Commuters‘ meeting called for last Thursday, evenâ€" ing to discuss the suburban railway transaction, which at, the present time is a topic of widespread interest and conversation throughout the town. If the people are. not: attending _ very largely the meetings called to deal with this subject, they are discussing it on the street, in the homes and business both at home and abroad, and many adverse opinions for and against are being stored up in the people‘s minds for serious consideration, and we venâ€" ture to say no citizens of Weston will go to the poll on Saturday of this week without some clearâ€"cut, definite idea of what he is voting for, and will mark his or her ballot in the way which to his or her mind is in the best interests of the town. The planned development referred to, as indicated by these published reâ€" ports, is that the Toronto Transportaâ€" tion Commission is at the present time erecting a twoâ€"storey garage to house two hundred buses. These buses to feed outlying portion of the city and probably being operated as part of a through downâ€"town service, as in De troit. Already some of these buses are feeding areas with a much greater poâ€" pulation density than pertains to Mt. Dennis or Weston, and on a three to fourâ€"minute headway. That Toronto has no cause to be ashamed of its street car system evolvâ€" ed under the capable hands of Mr. H. H. Couzens, and now being so ably deâ€" veloped by Mr. W. D. Harvey, the present general manager, is admitted. She has every cause to be proud of her street car system as anyone knows who has travelled. But even with this upâ€"toâ€"date system large deficits are the result owing to the decreased riding habit of the people. To combat these two undesirable features, and encourâ€" age an increased riding habit, the Toâ€" ronto Transportation Commission has decided upon the above outlined policy â€"buses.
