Residents of Richmond Hill have long felt the need of a supervised Nursery School. The present plan embraces two age groups, one for babies from two years to four years. and the other, the kindergarten group, aged five and six years. An experienced teacher has been obtain- ed to .supervise the classes and play reriods of the kindergarten group. Mrs. C. A. Howse. a qualified tea- cher, has been chosen as the Super- visor. She has had considerable ex- perience in Newfoundland schools in this type of teaching, and is enthus- iastically endorsed by all the local mothers interested in this commun- zty project. The idea of a Nursery [School was Iirst given consideration some weeks ago. and after several meetings of local mothers, a committee was ap- pointed to put the plan into effect. A schedule of hours was agreed upon, and it was finally decided Lo keep the Nursery open. daily, five days a week, from 9.00 a.m. until 12.00 noon. A moderate monthly fee, within the normal budget, will be me- cessary to make this a success. Besides this, the Committee r0- ports, each morning two local moth- ers have volunteered to be in attend- ance to look after the babies loft in the care of the Nursery School. Plans have been laid for proiect work of educational value, story- telling, exercises, music and marches, etc. A mid-morning rest period will be observed during which the chi‘d- ren will be given a nourishing drink. After several weeks of planning .and intensive work, a group of local ml‘ihers have completed arrangeâ€" ments to establish a Nursery School in Richmond Hill. The Nursery School will open Monday, July 12th.

This cost will be divided among the householders who sign up. Say if 64 householders use the service the cost to each would be 250. weekly. The account for garbage col- leciion will he sent out to the householders at the con- clusion of the season. For a long time there has been a demand for a satis- factory garbage collection service, and now that tenta- tive arrangements have been made the council hopes all interested will co-operate by promptly communi- cating with the clerk’s office. The Municipal Council of Richmond Hill has made tentative arrangements for a garbage collection ser- vice in the village for the summer months. The cost of this service is to be born by the householders, avail- ing themselves of the collection service.

York Three candidates will contest the riding of North York in the coming provincial election according to pre- sent, indications throughout the con- stituency. Morgan Baker, 1M.P.P., who has represented the riding in the Legislature since 1934 will again be a candidate and is assured of the unanimous nomination at the Liberal convention which will be held in New- market next Tuesday evening. G. 3.1310161] of North York Township has already been named as the GOP. standard bearer and the Conserva- tives of North York will name a candidate this week. Most promin- ently mentioned as the Conservative candidate is Major A. McKenzie of W’oodbridge, an unsuceessful contest- ant in the last election. Permission was granted to the L.T.B. &. 0. Home to hold a Tag Day in September. $4. was voted to the Greek War Relief Fund which brought the local contribution up to $220. Hon. Farquhar Oliver, Ontario Minister of Public Works, Hon. W. P. Mulock, federal member for the riding of North York and Morgan Baker will be speakers at the Lib- eral convention in Newmarket next Tuesday evening. Tax collections were reported as goes! by the treasurer, who submitt- ed a list of properties in the village liable for sale for arrears of taxes. A tax sale will be held this year but the number of properties liable will likely be very few. Council adopted the policy of ad- vertising all houses and lots now held in the name of the municipality. In this issue two houses and a num- ber of lots are listed, and tenders on the same are invited. At the regular meeting of Rich- mond Hill village council Monday night the members agreed to accept the tender of John Sheardown for the weekly collection of garbage dur- ing the summer months. The cost which will be $16.00 weekly will be divided among the householders who use the collection service, the users being billed by the village clerk at the end of the season. For several years there has been a demand for a municipal garbage collection ser- vice, and the council members feel that now they have been successful in making satisfactory arrange- ments. The disposal of the garbage which has been a contentious prob- lem has been solved by an arrange- ment for its disposal at the North York Twp. disposal plant. The mem- bers of council felt the most fair method of paying for the service was for those who used it to pay for it. It was pointed out that while garb- age disposal was a problem for many people, many others had privatx ar- rangements for its disposal. The Reeve and members of council ex- pressed the hop-e that as many as possible would avail themselves of the service in the interests of puhlic health as it was pointed out that garbage dumps were an attraction to disease carrying flies and insects. In a lengthy consideration of the request of the County and Provin- cial governments for local post-war projects the council listed sewers, paved streets, and a community hall as public works which might be un dertaken after the war. The gov- ernment has asked all municipalities to make a survey of local conditiOns with the view to mapping out a pul - lic works program in the municipal- ities which would be subsidized by provincial and federal assistance. Users Will Pay For Serviceâ€"Sewers, Pavements and Community Hall Suggested as Postwar Projects “We ghould have a cleaner and healthier village with a garbage col- lection system,” said the Reeve. All who wish to use the garbage col- lectinn are asked to commppicate with the clerk at once. I ' On Monday evening we again had a splendid meeting when a number of the ladies from the surrounding community gathered with a few of their husbands, brothers, etc. (men were scarce) to hear that very pop- ular speaker, Miss Ethel Chapman, give her address on Federated Agri- cu tuie. Miss Chapman gave one ex- cellent illustration of what Federat- ea Agriculture would mean to us if we would only adopt its ideas. This actually happened in some counties where Federated Agriculture is in progress. “A young man wishing to start in the trucking business went to headquarters and borrowed the money to buy a truck which he was to pay back in easy monthly terms. After a payment or two he was tak- en ill and sent to the ‘San’ for some time. The Federated Agriculture au- thorities secured a man to drive the truck and accounts were kept, some spending money sent to the patient and his truck was paid for when he came home.” The Federated Agri- cult-lre also advocates free individual doctoring with equal tax according to financial means. ‘Mrs. Miller of Melville sang three lovely solos. Mrs. A. Frisby gave three very splendid readings while Misses Joy and ‘Mar- garet Mortson and Coral Perkins gave a very interesting instrumen- tal trio on the piano with Misses Joy and Margaret giving a duet as an encore. Miss Bertie Foster is home again from the hospital. Also Mrs. C. Nichols and her little son. We hope ncy all continue to improve in hea‘tl). Last Wednesday .‘Mrs. fuxcuague and her group tried to put on a special program for the younger ladies of our church but our young ladies fail- ed to put in their appearance with the exception of four girls. Has any- one a solution for interesting the younger folk in the weekly church meetings? However, those present had a good time. Of course there was picnty of lunch. There were 11 boxes of lunch and only 18 to eat it all so look at the “eats” you miss- ed girls. Also a good program con- sisting of the following: Mrs. Rum- ney gave a reading, Miss Margaret Mortson presided at the piano, Misses What a happy week-end we have had. Our Sunday services were a great success, where the [bonds of spiritual friendship were embedded very deeply in the hearts of those present. Dr. Johnson in his very illustrative manner brought two very appropriate messages for such an occasion, closing with the thought that we must not look behind. for good times, nor ahead, but now is the time for good times for one and all, which seemed to be excellent ad- vice to a newly formed circuit. The music of the day was also very up- lifting with Miss Georgina Padget at the organ and .Mr. English at the piano. Mr. Bruce of Borwn’s Corn- ers sang that grand old number, “The Holy City” in the morning while Mrs. Stephenson of Brown's Corners sang a most fitting number, “Building for Eternity” in the even- ing. ‘ Brown’s Corners choir also sang a number at each service. The Headford and Victoria Sfuare choir members. filled: in the .rest of the choir loft making a splendid lead in the hymns which were sung «by a well filled church both morning and even- ing. We are all very grateful to Mr. and Mrs. English for their un- tiring efforts in the music world. hese days, when tea must yield the utmost in flavour, quality is of supreme importance. Ask for . .
