It Mill he that kind»â€" ly. chccrful and lovable face of Mrs. M. L. McConngiy. who continuous- ly since January 1906, has been a member of the Richmond Hill teach- ing stzifl. She retires after thirty- very one school, and altogether some forty years in the teaching profession. ~Last Friday night over two hun- dred gathered in the High School Gymnasium to pay tribute to this lrecord of service and to express to :Mrs. McConaghy the appreciation, esteem and affection of the entire community. Lloyd A. Hill. chairman of the Richmond Hill Public School Board. presided as chairman. and following a delightful program Mrs. MoConaghy was presented with a [ beautiful illuminated address, a radio, easy chair and reading lamp. The presentation was made by W. Lauder Glass of Richmond Hill and Mrs. Ha‘rdy Hill of Toronto, (formerly Mildred Wright), two pupils of Mrs. 'McConaghy’s first class in Richmond Hill. Mrs. McConaghy graciously acknowledged the presentation and in her remarks of thanks indulged in some interesting and amusing re- miniscences of her early experiences as a sch-001 teacher. T. principal, spoke briefly, as did JOhn G. McDonald. principal of Aurora 1 Fable School, a former pupil of Mrs. I. McConaghy, when She taught at Vel- lore before coming to Richmond Hill. Walter Scott, principal of the Rich- ‘mond‘ Hill School, paid tribute to the itfaithful. efficient and devoted ser- Evice of the guest of honor. Entertainment numbers on the pro- lgram included selections by the ,School Choir under the direction of Jean Middleton. dance number by Nancy Austin, piano solo by Mar- ion Little, solo by Nixola Fisher, v0- cal duet by Nixola Fisher and Lola Jones. instrumental trio Ruth, Stew- art and Norman Tyndall. During the evening Chairman L. A. Hill read a letter from Public School Inspector Gillies which in part said: “I am delighted and in heart sympathy with what you and your committee are doing in henoring Mrs. McConaghy for the good she has done in Richmond Hill and vicinâ€" ity. I know of no one more worthy of recognition. She has made a wonderful contribution to the pro- gress of education in Richmond Hill. Her work at school has been of in- estivmablc value. She set a good ex- _ample for children, lived up to what she taught and was honest and trust- worthy. I' am informed that many in need sought aid from Mrs. Mc- Conaghy and were never turned away empty-handed. I admired her youth- ful spirit. She was a hard worker ‘and enthusiastic in all that she did‘ and thus her pupils copy these ad- miralble qualities. She was interest- ed in all that the children were in- terested in. She realized she was teaching people and not subjects. She understood pupils’ problems and looked at things from the viewpoint of the pupils. I raise my hat to her and exclaini ‘God Bless Mrs. Mc- ' Con‘aghy‘." During the evening a beautiful bouquet of flowers, the gift of Jack Lynett. an ex-pupil, was presented to Mrs. McConaghy. Following the program dainty luncheon was served and a soeial time enjoyed. The Various tributes enclosed in the illuminated address were as fol- lows: Presentation address read by Lau- der Glass. To Mrs. McConaghyzâ€" Tonight you are surrounded by a host of friends. Some of them have been life long friends. Some have become friends because they sat at your feet in the class room, and some have become friends because you were a friend to their children.

Neal ) Robert D. Little) Councillors Wes. Middleton )g Richmond Hill Public School Staff To you Mrs. McConaghy whose re-' cord for indefatigable labour stand-s unsurpassed, we the teaching staff of Richmond Hill Public School do at this time wish to extend our con- gratulations, admiration and sincere good wishes. A human life is short and uncer- tain and Providence grants few of us the privilege of serving and ac- complishing as much as we might wish. To you, however, has been given added long years of useful effort, health and energetic vitality beyond the three score years and ten nor has He denied to you the blessing of children, home and all the joys connected therewith. To us associated with you in our daily labours it has been a revela- tion and an inspiration. Few if any in our profession have been favoured with the privilege of working side by side with one who has no thought of self but only for the unfortunate, the poor, and those in distress. The influence you have exercised not only extends to those young students under your care but to your associates, your neighbours, to your community and to the very nation itself. At this time when we realize you have deserved and need relaxation may we express the wish and hope that Providence who has been so bountiful may extend to yOu still the continued blessing of health, ser- vice, happiness and contentment only known by those who have given their all and are happy in the thought of having done so.

DEVINE .____.â€"_ JULY 8 - 9 l l - K EN HOWELL Vaughan Willingâ€" To Share Cost of Fixing Spruce St. A delegation from the Richvale Ratepayers Association at Vaughan Council meeting Monday afternoon was told that the township council is willing to assume one third 01‘ the cost of resurfacing Spruce Ave- nue, in view of the fact that this‘ street carries a substantial amount: of township traffic. The balance ofI two thirds would have to be assumed as a local improvement by the prop- erty owners on the street. The total cost of resurfacing all other streets would have to be born by the prop-vI erty owners. Cyril Baker and Tim Healey who were the Ratepayers re- presentatives stated they felt the prices submitted as the cost of the work on the various streets was reaâ€" sonalble. Prices were obtained on complete resurface job-s on Spruce, Yonrgehurst, Rumble. Oxford, Oak, Edgar and1 Garden Avenues. Wheth- er or not this work'is to be proceedâ€" ed with now rests entirely with the ratepayers. If they wart the work done they must present a sufficient- ly Signed petition to the municipal council. A complaint from a township resi- dent that a neighbour persisted in tethering his goats right beside his front door led council to pass a by- law w ich provides that “goats or swine must not be kept, tethered or permitted to approach nearer than 100 feet to any residence.” ‘ A byâ€"law was passed naming Will- iam Rid’dell of Thornhill as Building Inspector for the Township. A re~ cent by-law provides that a build- ing permit is now necessary for all building operations. Fred Thetford appeared with a petition signed by himself, Kathleen Walsh, Mrs. Stacey, Mr. Ccrfield‘, Joseph Grainger and William Conkâ€" lin asking that road through their sub-division west of Avenue Road be improved. At present residents of this section get to their property by driving over private property. Mr. Thetford was advised that if he presented a petition asking for a gravel road to be constructed as a local improvement and a charge against the property concerned the council would go ahead with the work. Clerk J. M. McDonald reported re- lief for the month of June to be $331.50 compared with $511 for the same month last year. At present ’55 persons are receiving municipal assistance and practically all are un- employable. Relief expenditure for the first six months of the year totalled 85807.10 compared to $9044 for the first Six months of 1939. Thos. Leatherdale presented a claim for two sheep killed valued Council Inivites Offers of Homes for British Children Those Willing To Open Homes Should Fill In Application Forms At Once Members of Richmond Hill coun- ‘oil in regular session discussed at some length ways and means of fur- thering the village war effort, and ‘it was deeded that the first step was to co-opeiate in every possible way with the government in the . placing of refugee children from' the British Isles. Over 500-0 of them children seeking haven in this land are expected to arrive in the current month. Children are thoroughly examined by Dominion Government medical [officers and responsibility for «the Ipl-acing in indivxdual homes rest:u iwith the provincial Welfare Depart- lment. In York County this work is f‘aeing supervised by the Children’s 5 Aid Society. The Village council has made an ‘anpea‘. for volunteer homes in this i district. Those willing to open their lhomes to these children from war- [torn Britain may receive application forms at the office of the Village l Clerk, from members of the council, 'or at The Liberal Office. 3 Councillor Dr. J. P. Wilson is familiar with all details of the plan and can supply complete information to anyone interested in helping in 'this way. PRAISES WORK OF THE FIRE BRIGADE Richmond. Hill, Ont., ‘ July 3rd, 1940. iTo the Editor of The Liberal Sir:â€" I wish to commend the efficient action of the Richmond Hill Fire Brigade last Monday night, when ‘our garage roof caught fire.
