As this area is growing there are now three teachers on the school staff. Recently the trustees were giv- en authority by the ratepayers to purchase another acre of land from Mr. W. Ness adjoining the three acres purchased three years ago. On this land is a. new school for grades one, two and there is sufficient land for future development as the community grows. Mr, W.

Allison read the audi- tors’ report and moved it be ac- cepted and'upon the motion being seconded by Mr. Ince it was pass- ed unanimously. The report in- dicated the year 1949 ended with a deficit on the books. Mr. Jack- son Taylor, chairman of the board spoke at some length regarding this explaining to those present the problem facing the district. The district is one of the smallest 'school sections in Southern Ontar- io which correspondingly means a low assessment but the attend- ance in the school is over one hundred and sixty. The picture indicates the school board has done an excellent job in providing better than average educational facilities at a minimum of cost. Mr. Jackson Taylor was unan- imously returned to office on the Richvale school bond at the an- ual open meeting of the board and ratepayers last' Wednésday, Dec- ember 28, in the school building.

Summit Golf Club To Open For Winter For First Time Since Founding In 1912 With formation of the Summit Winter Club as a subsidiary of the Summit Golf and Country Club, Ltd., the outstanding~win- ter attractions of the property and its availability for ‘top flight’ skiing will become available to those senior members who nor- mally have said goodbye to the club for the year when the golfing season ended. While emphasis will be placed on winter sports provision will be made for those members who would like to use the club as a meeting place and recrea‘tionlcen- tre during the colder weather. Saturday night mocassin dances will also become one of the win- the Yongehurst-Mill Road arm; the inadequacy of the present well to supply drinking water for [he school in spite of considerable work and expense in the past year to make the well productive and the insufficient washroom facilitq ies occasioned by the abrupt rise in attendance. Regarding the problem of a school in the north end of the section it was decided the possible formation of a school area in the near future would have a direct bearing on this question. It was moved by Mr, H. Iince and sec- onded by Mr. Allison that the meeting give the trustees the pow- er to act on their behalf regard- ing the school area â€" this motion was amended by Mr. Cy Baker to the effect the school board collect information regarding the ques- tion which would be presented to a special meeting of the ratepay- ers in the future. The amendment was seconded by Mr. Doug Hor- ton and was passed unanimously. Mr. Cy Baker moved and Mr. Moorehead seconded the school board do those things necessary to provide adequate drinking water and washroom facilities for the pupils to meet the standard of the health authorities no matter what the cost -â€"- motion carried unani- mously after discussion. The year 1949 terminated the term of office of Mr, Jackson Taylor as chairman of the board. After much discussion it ap- peared the experience and effort of Mr. Taylor had been an asset to the community and a loss would be sustained if he were not repre- sented in 1950 especially in view of the apparent troublesome times ahead due to accommodation and the changing of educationl sys- tems. Mr. Harold Ince moved that Mr. Taylor be nominated to carry on as chairman of the board. Mr. Cy Baker seconded this mo- tion and as no other nominations were made Mr. Taylor was ac- claimed to carry on for another The residents of the district are reminded once again of a very en- tertaining evening coming next Thursday, January 5.

Largest Dome In The World An aluminum dome measuring 365 feet across and 97 feet high is being built in Britain. It will forrn the centralgfeature of the 1951 Ex- hibition being- staged on the banks of the Thames as centre piece of the Festival of Britain. Some idea of its size can be gathered by com- parison with the dome of St. Peter’s in Rome, which has hither- to been the biggest in the world. This measures 136 feet across while St. Paul’s in London_ comes a. close second with a diam'eter of 109 feet. The Dome of Discovery, as it will.'be called, will be built without any interior supports at all. It will roof the m0st striking building in the Exhibition â€" the one telling of Britain’s pre-emin- ence in the fields of exploration and discovery by land, sea and air. a Round & Sirloin Steaks or Roasts News Of Our Neighbours Blade and Short Rib Roasts 52c lb.
