This was badly needed, and now the street along the river can be kept clean. The ground purchased is the old gravel pit. The Rev. Father McHeown, success- or to the late Father Quigley, as pas- tor of the Wingham and St. Augustine R. C. congregations, preached his inaugural sermon at the R. C. church there Sunday morning, to an appreci- ative congregation. During the past few hot days the streets have been in a very dusty con- dition, and clouds of dust could be seen blowing along the portion. of Main street, which, by frontage tax the business men pay well to have laid. The present system of watering the streets is simply a farce. The work is done according to the supply of water, not the quantity of dust blowingabout. It is not fair to ask people to pay full fare for a half service. The Council should seek a better supply of water. Among those who visited Toronto Fair axe :- Mr. and Mrs. R.H.
