Of this sum $140,000.00 is to be given to the dependants who lost their loved ones in the marine services during the war.. This is a debt upon every Canâ€" adian and should be met. The balance of the money is to be used for the propaganda work to create Canadian marine merchants /and sailors. _ We need this so that our merchants may have the proper facilities for the carâ€" rying of our merchandise on the waâ€" ter. With our great resources and the possibilities that are before us it is essential that we should have a marine service here of our own. The Navy League are out. to accomplish this and they need your assistance in the matter. Will you give it? Come out and hear the details on Thursday night at the public library building lecture roont. The town has appointed a night police for the town at last. This is indeed news that all the citizens of the town will rejoice to hear. It has been felt for a considerable time that we should have a â€"night constable on the job in Weston. It could not, howâ€" ever, be seen by our authorities. Durâ€" ing the past month the town has been the good feasting grounds for a numâ€" ber of men who like to work in the dark, and relieve men of their hard earnings. . The Weston Coal & Lumâ€" ber, The Barker Garage, The Irvinne Lumber Co. andâ€" Farley‘s were all visited and some lost considerable, while others fortune favored. These robberies, however, have aroused the feelings of the merchants, and the tcwn has appointd a night watchman for the town. The merchants are asked to keep their lights burning so that the inside of the shops and officâ€" es can be seen from the street. Any suspicious charfcters loafing about the town will be given a night‘s lodgâ€" ing unles they can explain their busiâ€" ness. This will indeed afford the town the protection that is so badly needed. Weston is called upon to make a contribution to the fund of the Navy League. Last Thursday night several of the citizens of the town met in the public library building and heard Mr. Jackson explain the position of the Navy League in Canada, and their present needs.

B. Millar, Alex. Peirson, Rev. Forbes Robertson and J. M. Pearen. This committee is holding a meeting on Thursday evenâ€" ing for the citizens of the town. This whole subject will be discussed. The importance of the movement will be recognized by the citizens. The Navy $1,000.00 OUP SHARE T0 RAISE The wardens of St. John‘s c}:urch Lakeview,, have invited _ Mr. Frank Vipond, a former resident of Weston, to. be Rector, and sent in a request to the Bishop for his appointment. Dr. Walter Archibald, also a former resident, and for a time in charge of the work at St. John‘s, had resigned. ( Owners of trees are beginning to wonder if by the time fruit is ready for use, they will have any, or if much of the tree will be left. The children seem to have no respect as to personal rights, thinking because the tree has fruit on it they are justified in enterâ€" ing a yard, and helping themselves. They do not even wait until the fruit has ripened, when a gentle shake would loosen its hold, or even content themselves with picking up what has fallen to the ground, but use stones and sticks, or any missile handy to throw, else climbing up by â€"means of pulling the lower branches down and in many cases doing a great deal of damage. In the case of vacant propâ€" erty, good healthy trees have been destroyed, and in many instances trees are being shamefully destroyed. The boys and girls are not satisfied with taking a few to ‘eat.: but" fillâ€" their pockets, and very often waste many of them by waging a pitched battle of apple throwing. We know the temptation is strong when fruit or nuts hang temptingly in view, but we wonder if the boys and girls have ever stopped to consider that it is a case of taking what is not theirs to take. The owner does not mind a few apples being carried away, but he does object to his trees being broken and the leaves battered, and much of the remaining fruit detroyed and unâ€" fit for use.. If the children will just stop and think, they will see the justâ€" ice of respecting other people‘s rights and property, and this practice will be stopped without any further trouble. LAGROSSE BOYS ARF BANQUFTEE Junior Team was Honored by One of the Citizens of _ Weston On Thursday evening last the Junior Lacrosse Boys and their friends were tendered a supper by Mr. Mallaby at his home, Humber street.

Toasts were proposed and responded to by various members present, also music helped to provide an enjovable and profitable entertainment. Before departing the guests voted a hearty vote of thanks to their host and bostess for the honor shown them. 6X MA MV BROS TXE TW1 THNK WHAT TT MEANS PHONE 41 The Cruickshank Wagon proomo ce o o n mm c m e c m oo on c ce o omcs m m o m ons o n o o o on o on o o n s en o n un on e h n in ce in n n emtoetâ€"lltoâ€"llt{â€"Tâ€"â€"uâ€"Câ€"â€"Tâ€"TttTâ€"ITuItTt h a hoh m ymen uomm tm m rvorrmiammmam on oo orvuowrTwâ€"oâ€"tteypipwWitowslll Ueippttt YCt To L utd BBA wl ol ats in a oisctaldel And the competition that the stores in Weston are giving has increased their sales and ours too.
