The Just Kids Safety Club, organised by The Toronto Globe, has attained a membership of 205,000 —more than one-third of the total number of children between the ages of five and fifteen in the whole province of Ontario. On joining, the children promise “to remember to look up and down, before crossing the street.” (states the Newspaper World.) It is of interest to add that the club formed similarly by the Taranaki Herald has enrolled more than a quarter of the school children in the Taranaki province, and the number is still growing. The membership is now just on 3000 and the children attending the schools under the Taranaki Education Board number about 11,700. Pwllheli’s horse-drawn tramway system, opened in 1895, has closed down, and the new Corporation omnibus service inaugurated. For Children's Hacking Cough Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.
