Owing to the large number of jun- ‘iors in camp it was difficult to pro- vide seniors fior each tent. But the Tent Leaders of this year will be good material for next year. Cre- dits 'were given covering the entire Camp Program. Tent and Personal Inspection, neatness and cleanliness; Totem Poles and Docks. Land and water sports, knot tying, linoleum carving, rubber shoes, one Bible Study assignment, and learning to swim. Credits were checked care- fully and the results are as follows: Tents 13 and 14, Ken. Davis, Chief, Perry King, Petty Chief, 47 9’0; Tents 7 and 8, Gar. Brown, Chief, V. Pid- geon, Petty Chief, 46%; Tents 5 and 6, G. Armstrong, Chief, G. Davis, I There is a Tribal Chief and excellent, and the wiches, a variety of cake, served with ice cream and lemonade, were tables were in charge of about 20‘ charming young ladies. Late in the evening a most enjoyable entertainment was given. Mr. F. W. Garvin, president of the club, occupied the chair. As the lad- ies had provided too abundantly, an auction sale took place at the close of the entertainment, Mr. J. T. Sal- geon, the popular auctioneer, dispos- ming' of the balance in his inimitable style. The proceeds of the evening amounted to about $46.00. THIRTY YEARS AGO From Our Issue of July 26th, 1906 A new Post Office has been opened ‘at Hope, a mile north of Maple, with Mr. William Thomas as Postmaster. Mr. E. J.

The pro- The afternoons were Free and Easy, “As you like it” often meant a request to visit the Booth, one mile from Camp. Being out of bounds it had a great attraction to camp- ‘ers. At this hour the Staff and Tent Leaders met in Council to check up and arrange programs. This gives a democratic form of govern- ment to camp. Valley and Soft Ball series were arranged between tribes and played off after supper. Sunset meant Flag lowering, make your bed and prepare for Camp-fire. Mr. Mar- ‘rett of the Forestry Department came in and gave a lantern lecture of the preservation of our forests 'one evening, and was enjoyed by all. Campâ€"fire meant sing-songs, stunts, stories and marshmallows. The even- ing closed with a Vesper service and at 10 o’clock the whistle sounded “All Lights OUT” but many a flash pierced the darkness after that. This improved toward the end of camp except for the last night and of that night, let each boy tell of his own experiences. RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JULY 30th, 1936 Lorne Patterson of Newmarket was Swimming Instructor and had a class of 24 nonâ€"swimmers, all made good progress, some swxm good now. Great care is exercised in connec- tion with the swim period. Each boy has a number and is checked on en- tering the water and on leaving. Two boats with life guards parole through- out every swim period. Water balls add to the fun for both the old and new camper. Mr. and Mrs. Aub. Bailey of New- m-arket gave the lead in Musical Appreciation. This has proved a very popular period, coming right after dinner before the boys leave the table. Thanks to Mr. Stouffer of Newmarket we have a real good piano in camp. With Mrs. Bailey an accomplished pianist and Aubrey leading either with Saxophone or violin the sing-song does not lack pep and enthusiasm The special numbers by Mr. and Mrs. Bailey are listened to with keen interest and delight. This year We have our own Camp Orchestra. George Armstrong at the piano; Eric Wilson, George Morris and Francis Cook on violins; and Rev. Strapp, Trombone. Aub. Bailey, Conductor. They did good work and all enjoy-ed their numbers. The “Tribal Spy” was the Camp Paper edited by Garfield Brcwn and Elgin Barrow. It was an evidence of literary ability and the lads fer- reted out some choice morsals of 'camp scandal, with helpful comments interesting and humorous. The North York Boys Camp at Duclos Point is over for another year. Despite the intense heat it proved to be the happiest and most profitable camp in our experience. The 85 boys represented the follow- ing communities: Aurora 36: Rich- ‘mond Hill 11; Sutton 9; Newmarket 8; King 6; Mount Albert 5; Kes- wick 3; Queensville 3; Thornhill 2; Kettleby 2. A Staff of 9 Leaders were in charge, assuring good meals, and a balanced program of activities that were profitable for mind and body. The Camp was divided into 2 groups for Bible Study. Rev. .-\nâ€" derson of Sutton led the Juniors, Rev. Thompson of Aurora led the Seniors. The boys were asked to write one assignment on the work they covered. The Interest Groups were headed up by Rev. Strapp of Kettleby and Ken Davis of King. Knots were made and fastened to display boards. Rubber shoes were 'made from old rubber automobile tubes. The boys construct-3d 6 tent floors, built a dock 30 feet long, and a raft. First Aid was taught by Dr. Devins. Camp Ahshunyoong One of the most delightful even- ings of the season was spent on the lawn of John Brown Esq., last Sat- urday evening, the occasion being an Ice Cream Social under the auspices of our popular lacrosse club." The refreshments consisting of sand- }wiches, a variety of cake, servled Iwith ice cream and lemonade, were excellent, and the tables were in charge of about 20‘ charming young ladies. Late in the evening a most enjoyable entertainment was given. Mr. F. W. Garvin, president of the club, occupied the chair. As the lad- ies had provided too abundantly, an auction sale took place at the close of the entertainment, Mr. J. T. Sal- geon, the popular auctioneer, dispos- wing‘ of the balance in his inimitable style. The proceeds of the evening Iamounted to about $46.00. The commission to divide the County of York into districts for county purposes will meet the 5th of August. The following divisions have been suggested: Division 1, to con- sist of Scarboro, East Toronto and East York; division 2, Etobicoke, Weston and West York; division 3, Markham and Markham Village; diâ€" vision 4, Vaughan,.Woodbi-idge and Richmond Hill; division 5,‘Whit- church, Newmarket and Stouffville; division 6, King and Aurora; divi- sion 7, East Gwillimbury, North Gwillimbury, Georgina, Sutton and Holland Landing.

Mr. and Mrs. Ridout of Stouffville who were our most genial and capable cooks, and to the parents whose confidence gave us such a splendid registration of boys. Might I add some words of advice for future re- ference. Mark your boy‘s clothing so that he can identify it. Many boys do not recognize their own per- sonal property. At the close of camp the Director has a great variety that no boy claims. Urge your boy to deposit his spending money with the Camp Director. It is safe there, romping around camp it is easily lost. We are grateful for no bad sun-burns, no sickness. We appre- ciate the cooperation that made the 1936 Camp such a good one. We look forward to another such camp in 1937. The following is the stanuing of the lacrosse teams in the York Dis- trict: The Camp was inspected by Rev. E. R. McLean, Provincial Secretary of the Boys Work Board. This camp has been awarded Honours for 5 years and in addition to the Camp Standard, Mr. McLean presented us with a Camp Banner from the In- ternational Goodwill “Koi-nobori" Society of Tokyo, Japan. An emblem of Peace and goodwill from the boys of Japan to the boys of Canada. We believe that we have fulfilled the re- quirements for the Honours again in 1936. From Our Issue of July 30th, 1896 Under the new County Councils Act no provision is made for school grants, therefore this funil is cut off. It will, consequently, be necessary for tovimship councils to raise by general rate $150 for each school, and $100 extra for each additional teacher. This new act does not ef- fect the usual Legislative Grants to Public schools. It is very gratifying to note how closely the entire camp registered in the summary of credits. The awards to the winning Tribe will be given at the Fall Camp Reunion. Petty Chief, 42%; Tents 11 and 12, Dick Pearson, Chief, M. Coweson, Petty Chief, 41%; Tents 3 and 4, Don Graham, Chief, Elgin Barrow, Petty Chief, 37%|; Tents 2 & 1, Lloyd Grose, Chief, Gordon Smalley, Petty Chief 35%. Thank you, I Douglas Davis, Camp ‘Director FORTY YEARS AGO MEmL Won Lost ToPlay The Toronto And York Radial Rail- way Company has given orders for )the building of six new cars similar to modern coaches lately put on the Mimico line, to be used on the ex- *tension from Newmarket to Jack- son’s Point and Sutton. These cars will cost over $40,000. A very pleasant event took place Monday afternoon of this week, a- bout 11/2 miles east of this village, when the framework of a large and thoroughly upâ€"to-date barn was rais- ‘ed on the farm of Homer Brothers, who for over 20 years have given unqualified satisfaction as milk sup- pliers for Richmond Hill. The new structure is 40x80 feet, on high stone ’walls, giving excellent accommoda- tion for horse stables, cow stables 'and roots. The stone work was done by Mr. E. Glover of this place and the framework by Mr. Frank Smith and Brother of Edgeley. A very large crowd was present at the rais- ‘ing on Monday, more than 300 hav- ing sat down to tea after the build- ing- was erected. Mr. Henry Bond and Mr. Albert Williams were ap- pointed captains, and they in turn selected their men for the exciting- contest. Everybody seemed prepar- ed to do as his leader told him, ev- i The construction of the new James Bay Railway station is being rapidly rpushed along, and it is now hoped the Village Council will be able to secure a strip of land in order to ‘widen Centre Street, east of Yonge, to the station. A new neckwear factory has start- ed business in the Town Hall, Au- rora. It is said they purpose em- ploying about 50 hands, principally girls. The proprietors are advertis- ing for girls who can run sewing *machines. Mr. H. A. Nicholls has greatly im- proved the interior of the Standard Bank by a covering of metallic pan- els on the walls and ceiling. The ‘work was done by Mr. George S. Sims. It will be painted and tinted ’and when finished will look well. ’prietor, Mr. Hopkins, is much pleas- ed with the excellent flow.
