Scene of this interesting spectacle was Elward‘s farm, loâ€" cated on the fourth concession just north of Buttonville. These mighty "Jee%s" that won a place in history through their rodigious feats during World War 1 have been completely reâ€"engiâ€" neered and designed for Yuefl.imo occupations.

Holds Favor for Centuries This oldest form of Scottish sport was inaugurated many cenâ€" turies ago, when the clans came home from wars. In peacetime the sfort was employed to prove which clan had the strongest man. At that time, a tree was chopped down and each man was g-iven an og- portunity to prove his strength. Century after century this sport has predominated in games in Scotland, but fewer men are enâ€" tering the contests nowadays, acâ€" cording to Sgt. Cobb. Prettx' young girls wearing the kilt and uniform competed in the Highhnd fling, the sword dance and seann truibhas events throughâ€" out the day in front of the grandâ€" stand, while field and track events were heldâ€" at one end of the grounds and bagpipe contests at the other. Completing the Willys line will be a smartly streamlined, sturdilyâ€" engineered range of four and six cylinder passenger cars, which will be announced this fall, acâ€" cording to an official of Denton Massey Motors Limited, recentlyâ€" appointed Willys distributors for central, northern and southern Ontario, who sponsored the deâ€" monstration.

Completion of the transaction congludes plans that have been unâ€" der way for some time and alâ€" though future plans are not yet concrete, Mr. English expects to remain in Weston for the next few weeks. It was in 1919 when Fred Engâ€" lish as a veteran of the first World War started in the hardware busiâ€" ness in Mount Dennis, with the firm of English Bros. & Mould, and just thirteen years later in 1925 that Mr. English started in busiâ€" ness on Weston‘s main street in a }:'ranch store of the aforementioned irm. During his stay in Weston Mr. English has been well known throughout the community for his interest and active . participation in the welfare projects of the town. He acted as one of the organizers of the Weston Business Men‘s Asâ€" sociation and was president of that organization in 1944. He is also a past member of the Rotarians and is at present an active worker in the Canadian Legion. Mr. Clark is well known to the citizens of Weston not only in a business and political sense but from a sporting angle as well. _ â€"A charter member of the Lions Club he was president a few years back of the Weston Presbyterian Men‘s Club. â€" Receiving his early schooling at King street and Memorial school and Weston Collegiate, Mr. Clark has been in the wholesale business business career, and was a member of the municipal council for the 1940â€"41 term. ~ _ s o Those travelling in the sporting circles best remember him as coac of the Weston junior championship THL hockey team in 1939 and as a player on many Weston OALA cg;anpionship teams from 1924 to 1930. Mr. Clark was recently dischargâ€" ed from the Rosral Canadian Navy where he served for four years as an officer in the Department of Supply. + On Wednesdaf', July 3ist, the Club had a swell turnout for the Hay Ride. In fact it was hard to tell if there was any hay, there were so many people in it. The ride took us up the Old Malton Road to Brown‘s Line, stopping for refreshments on the way, and reâ€" turning about 11 o‘clock.
