On their return they will reâ€" side in Islington. The Willie Park tournament held on Saturday last was a decided success, and the executive of the Weston club must be congratulated on the way the tournament was conducted. THE WILLIE PARK â€"CGOLF TBURNANMENT AThe course was as nearly perfect as humanly possible, and there were many threats against Peer, but Dr. Joe Sullivan proved the best, with a 74 against a par of 71. There were 160 entrants for the troâ€" phy, which has been resting in the Rosedale club since the inauguration of the tournament, it being won in 1925 by Dr. J. A. Sullivan, in 1926 by Alex.

WILLIAMSON Bloor & Dundas Sts. Last season the league enjoyed a very good year, and many good bow!â€" ers were produced, some who were successful in capturing prizes in Karâ€" ry‘s tournament in Toronto. That alone speaks well for the class of bowling in the local league and a bigâ€" ger and better league is looked forâ€" ward to this year. The league was composed of the following teams last year: Peerless, C.C.M., Merchants, Cyâ€" cles, Heartbreakers, Marriotts, Sandâ€" baggers, Kodak. Now that the long evenings and cooler weather is back with us again, the "five pin topplers" are looking forward to the coming season at the local alley. _ We believe Mr. Harry West has been appointed manager of the bowling alley, and he should be‘a great success in his new position, as he was captain of the champion. Peerâ€" less team who captured the coveted trophy last season after an uphill fight. They finished well down in the standing of the first series, although they had probably the highest team average in the league. The next seâ€" ries found them being just nosed ‘out by the Heartbreakers, who had to win all games to accomplish that feat. The third series determined that you cannot keep a good team down, and found the Peerless resting on top with quite a substantial margin over the other teams. It certainly is welcome news to the citizens of Islington to hear that the bus service is on again. Situated so near the city and with so many of our citizens coming in and out daily, some regular transportation service is needâ€" ed., The cars are not convenient, and many find it hard to get in and out of the city. With the halfâ€"hour bus serâ€" vice once more on it is possible now to reach the city or Islington at any hour. It is up to the citizens to patâ€" ronize the bus service. In the playâ€"offs for the championâ€" ship the Peerless rolled the record score of over 3600 and at that they did not beat the Merchants by very much. C.

Cemetery Fence Repaired _ Repairs are being made to the cemâ€" etery fence next to the town hall. This spot could be made one of the beauty centres of Islington.

All this is the result of Prohibition. We are not going back to the old conditions of thtings with their misery, want and poverty â€" never again...

A RAILROAD MAN ON ® PROHIBITION THE TIMES AND CGUIDE, WESTON HUMBERVALE SAT., SFPI. 1/ PANEMENT RIGH TRROUGH \ At last it has been decided by the| Good Roads commission that they willl continue the pavement of Dundas St. right through the village. What they| wanted the township to do was to pave the roadway the full width with curbs. This could not be done yet. All sewage will have to be taken care of in the near future. When this time comes it would mean the tearing up of the road. It certainly would have been a mess to leave this part of the road unfinished.. Work is being | started on this section, and the whole road will soon be completed and openâ€" ed for traffic. Force should be organâ€" ized to push the completion of the| Lambton bridge. All this is a yery | important link in the roadway. You only get what you go after. What is needed in Islington at the present time is good means of coming in and out of the city. Lambton bridge is the one link in the good road. Keep after the bridge if it is wanted. | Commission Will Pave Dundas Street Right Through Islington S6H. FLOWER SHOW VERY SUCCESSHL Islington Horticuitural Society scorâ€" ed another success when they held the annual flower show for the pupils in the various classes.

Each pupil had to attend to the flowers and show them. This was a splendid means of interesting the children in horticultural work, and the society are to be commended for their excellent work along this line. â€" If the children learn to grow flowers and surround themselves with the beautiful, they will certainly develop an eye for beauâ€" ty and learno many valuable lessons from nature. 3 59 Entries from Pupils of Islingâ€" ton Public School at Annual Show Mr. A. Thompson, Mrs. R. Green, Mrs. A. E. Meades, and Mrs. R. H.
