White and family have moved into the house which was for- merly occupied by Donald Fraser and family. On Sunday next Communion Ser- xices will be held in all of the United Churches on the circuit. An application from the Bowling Club to rent the Town Hall for a bridge tournament was refused as the town has not a license to use the building as a public hall and it is not the intention of the council to procure such license. “Warning, car tracks dangerous in wet weather” will be the sign erected at both ends of the village by the council at an early date was the de- cision of the municipal council Mon- day night. It was felt that there should be some additional warning to strangers motoring through the vil- lage owing to the number of accidents which have occurred, and while it was contended that there was very little danger if the speed limit was observed it was thought best to erect a warning A communication from the Women’s Institute asked the council to have the unsightly town. dump on the water work’s property covered up in some way as it was an eyesore at the en- trance to the village in its present condition. It was pointed out that the cans and refuse were covered up as quickly as dirt and covering was available. Slgn MAPLE Mrs. R. J. Blaney; appealed an as- sessment of $900 for land and $1150 for buildings on her property bord- ered' by Richmond, Trench and Mill Streets. The property consists of six acres of land and a brick dwelling. In making the appeal Mrs. Blaney pointed out that a considerable por- tion of the land was not suitable for gardening. Investigation of neigh- bouring assessments showed that the land was assessed twenty-five per cent lower than a. neighbouring acreb age which it was felt was sufficient allowance and on motion of council- lors Neal and Little the assessment was confirmed. Richmiond Hill council met as a Court of Revision, Monday evening, and three appeals against the assess- ment but in all cases confirmed the assessment as made by the assessor. The total aSSiesIsmenvt of the village for next year is $928,705.85 which is about $7,000.00 lower than this year. The small number of appeals was accepted by the council as evidence of the satisfaction of the people with the Iequality of Richmond1 Hill’s as- sessment and assessor, A. E. Glass, who was present to give details re- lative to different properties was com mended for his work. Miss Ada Feir appealed against the assessment of her property at the corner of Lucas and Mill Streets. It is assessed for $1125.00, land $700 and‘ buildings $425.00. The assessor point- Miss Ever‘all appealed the assess- ment on her property on North Yonge Street just South of Little’s: Garage. The house and lot are assessed for $2500.00, which it was claimed is too high. The land is assessed for $650 and the building for $1550.00. On motion of councillors Middeton and Little the assessment was confirmed. ed out that the land was assessed the same as surrounding lots and the members felt the buildings were not too highly assessed. On motion of councillor Middleton and councillor Neal the assessment was confirmed. After the pral'adié of costumes there wane two lacrosse games, Young Can- ucks, vs Night Hawks and a. novel Richmond Hill’s first. annual “Kids? Hallowe’en Party” was a huge success The arena was crowded with a happy crowd of youngsters and older folks and a. splendid evening was enjoyed. And best of all authorities and citi- zens report a minimum of Hallowe’en pranks. Reeve Greene this morning expressed himself as delighted with the party and with the results. “I certainly think it should be an annual even ,” he said to The Liberal this morning. “No serious damage has been reported,” he said, “and I con- gratulate the young folks on entering into the spirit of the affair and reâ€" fraining from any destructive pranks which have sometimes marred Hal- lowe’en.” Hallowe’en Party Was Huge Success game for the girls when the public school played the high school. This is the first time Canada’s National game has ever been played by girls in Richmond Hill and it provided a. rare treat for the spectators. The girls, perhaps, were not too expert with the sticks and their passing and catching may have been a little erratic but they demonstrated that they could enter into the game just as enthusiastically as the boys and we expect to hear from Richmond Hill girls lacrosse teams in the future. Three Appeals At Cami (N Revision IN ALL CASES THE ASSESSMENT CONFIRMED Smith and Mr. difficult time There were a fine costumes All past members are requegted to keep the date in mind.
