_ The fire hall is a twoâ€"storey solid brick building, the upper storey to be used as a library and recreation hall. The cost of ouilding is $4500, and the cost of the truck $3300. _ _A demonstration of life saving was given by the brigade, the ladders, and other equipment all being brought inâ€" to play in this work. The truck, which is painted a brilliant red, well equipâ€" ped with all the necessary appliances for fire fighting, and carrying a lond siren whistle, which gives plenty of warning, for a clear right of way, was purchased through the J. T. Farr. & Sons Agency, of Weston. This was much admired on the occasion, and will doubtless receive many favoraâ€" ble comments, when in action, under the capable management of the Isâ€" lington fire brigade. Following the opening ceremonies an adjournment was made to Love‘s tearooms, where a most appetizing banquet had been, prepared. Among the visitors presâ€" ent were A. Taylor, C. Clmmberlain,i A. Rabjohn â€" and C.. Kimball, fire chiefs of New Toronto, Long Branch, Swansea and Lambton. These men gave brief addresses, including some timely hints, in the work of combating fires, and to these A. F. Love, chief of the local brigade, made a suitable reply. & «Theâ€"openingâ€"of â€" theâ€"new .. firehall and presentation to the brigade of the new fire truck took place under most auspicious circumstances, with Reeve Tier officiating. NEW FIRE HALL _ Another byâ€"law passed authorized the engineer and clerk. to take preâ€" liminary steps in the proposed â€" conâ€" struction of a six inch watermain. and service pipe with the necessary hyâ€" drants, valves, etc., on Algoma St., from Church to Wesley. A deputation headed by Mr. Gardâ€" house, were successful in having a byâ€"law passed for HMydro Extension, for the northwest part of the township and Clairville. This news comes as a pleasant surprise to the people of this section, who have been waiting and watching for ydroâ€" power : for the past ten years. It was. decided to widen Albion Rd. to a width of 66 feet from Thistleâ€" town to Clairville. A byâ€"law was passed granting aid to the Humber Bay Athletie Associaâ€" tion, also. the Long Branch â€" Boy Scouts Troop, 33. Another letter was read from the Ratepayers‘ Association, asking for the approach to. River ~St. from Dundas St. be put in good shape. Tenders Awarded The following tenders were warded, one for brass fittings and lead pipe to the Empire Brass Company, and the tender for spraying of roads, awarded to the Municipal Spraying and Oil Co. A letter was read from G.: Hines, Long Branch, asking that loads stone be put on the Burlington Rd., it was in a very bad condition. Another matter discussed was the esâ€" tablishment of a new _ High School Area, to be known as the Islington, Lambton and Sunny Lea Area, coverâ€" ing four school sections, Nos. 2, 8,.8 and 14. ‘The men _ supporting the movement were‘ J. L. Macpherson, J. Hughes, W. T. Douglas and ~W. B. Clayton. A meeting will be called on May 17th to discuss this question. more fully. / Etobicoke Council met on Monday in the council chambers, Islington, with the reeve in the chair, councillorsâ€"and Clerk .Barratt in the respective chairs. _Routine business carried through, depâ€" ‘utations became the next order‘ in council, te first one a party of five, Messrs. J. A. L. Macpherson, T. Townâ€" shend, M. William, A. J. Johnston, and E. Garbutt, representing the Business ‘Men‘s Association, asking for a ; grant to be used for advertising purposes, alâ€" so the support of the council in securâ€" ing a better freight rate. The reeve promised to give the matter strict atâ€" tention and secure the reduction if posâ€" sible. A sugoestion was made to change names of streets, in cases of two streets of the same name, also to place the names on the streets on the corners of the same. â€" This matter will also be atâ€" tended to. f High School Area Proposedâ€" Local Improvements Dealt With 5 ‘f';"v“ e f (==g 8 4 «sA «3 \ A~ JA ~* V .A8 ts 5. 6 [ c 41.

E well to consult us toâ€"day, and we will make you a suit or a coat t that will give you a distinetive appearance. of of as "fresh." TO â€" FIT It is a fortunate fact that tomatoces, the most attractive and healthful of vegetables, lend themselves to easy, safe canning and are actually fresher and more nuté&ive when canned than when brought/ on the market as Sir William investigated four cases of alleged food poisoning in the Britâ€" ish Army in France, and he neported that in each ease it was found that contamination occurred, after the food was removed from the can. These facts are \readily acceptable when it is remembered that modern canning is simply application of sufâ€" ficient heat to the tightly sealed cans of food to sterilize the contents, and the closed tins make further contamâ€" ination impossible. â€" This eminent authority says in his report ~of ‘his warâ€"timeâ€" experiences: "I never (it would have been brought to my. notice if cases had occurred) during the war saw a single case of food poisoning where the poisoning had arisen. from . the food being poisonous in the unopened can. _ We had close to half a million troops in Mesopotamia, and I can honestly say that r}ét a single case was brought: to my attention. I think this was teâ€" markable, especially _ in countries where the conditions were most favorâ€" able for food poisoning." The Great War exploded the misâ€" taken idea that ptomaines were the eause of food poigoning. Sir William Wilcox, medical advisor to the British Home Office, who served during the war. as «consulting. . physician. to the British Expeditionary Force in the Near East, declares that "the danger of metallio poisoning from the eatâ€" ing of tinned goods is practically nil." _ Mr. R. E. Smith, assistant superinâ€" tendent of the Bloor St. Mission Sunâ€" day School, has been accepted for misâ€" sionary. work in the diocese of Saskatâ€" chewan and left on Wednesday last for Marshall to take up a vacant parish. Before going the school presented him with a club bag. ~Mr. Sinith has been a very earnest worker during his stay with us. 4 2 When weâ€"compare the sickly sameâ€" ness. ofâ€"the ‘average.:meéal of a cenâ€" tury ago with the varied diet now available, the blessing of the modern art of canning foods is strikingly apâ€" parent. It is a source of deep satisâ€" faction to be assured on the highest authority that the once prevalent beâ€" lief that canned foods carry hidden dangers is ofily a myth. _ _ . THE SAFE BLESSING The combined choits of the Deanery of Peel: have begun work for their auâ€" tumn meeting and have secured the promise of Dr. Fricker to conduct the final rehearsal and the service which is to be held in New Toronto on a date to be fixed dater,‘ This work affords an excellent appartunity for choirs to avail themselves of the assistance of the best obtainable instruction and will be formedtoâ€"help:smuch toward better rendering of all} branches of church musicto be supg: â€" ~ ~/ The A.
