Those joining were Rev. John Lambert, Gordon Neill, Neal Wil- son, Dougald McCowan and Bruce McClelland. Each was presented with his pin by his sponsor. Lion Dr. Phil. McFarland gave a report on the dental survey of the schools at Hope, Maple and Vellore. Out of 130 pupils exam- ined, he said. \‘ellorc had the high- est percentage of perfect teeth. He paid tribute to the previous survey, pointing out that it had led to much improvement. He felt that the greatest advantage gain- ed from the survey was the fact that parents were notified in writ- inf.r of the state of their children's teeth and so were able to take proper action in time, Mentioned at the meeting was the dance. with Jack Fowler's 01‘â€" chestra, to be held in Maple Con- cert Hall on January 16. Thornhill Reconstruction (Continued from page 1) dicative of the speed with ‘wliich‘ business got into gear again is the fact that Mr. Harley gave his wholesale houses an order at 10.30 last Friday morning and by 4.30 in the afiernoon stock was being delivered and put on the shelves which had been hurriedly erected. Fortunately, says Mr. Harley, he saved his prescription file and consequently is able to look after old customers without delay. Petrolane Carries On In a little two-byâ€"four office on the west Side of Yonge Street the Petrolane Corporation, distribu- tors of bottled gas and equipment, is going ahead full speed. Man- aging Director E. W. Sanderson is busy making plans to hasten the new building planned for er- ection in Richmond Hill, and which is described elsewhere in this is- sue. “Certafnly we are carrying on here," he told The Liberal, as be mapped out an advertising campaign designed to show the safety of Petrolane. In spite of erroneous reports which appeared in Toronto papers, said Mr. San- derson, there were no explosions. He evidenced the safety of his product by exhibiting cylinders which had come through the in~ ferno and which were as solid as they were before the fiery test. Still Clipping Although his was another of the stores completely wiped out Thornhill village’s barber T. Find- lay, is carrying on. Hastin gath- ered equipment is being used in his home on Centre Street, where his old customers are rallying around. It's a pretty safe bet that the conversation traditional to a barber shop is 99% on one subject these days. Nothing could be learned of the plans of Nelson Grinnell, who re- cently bought the old hotel. Since returning to Thornhill briefly after the fire he had not been seen around the village, enquiries disâ€" alesed. A rather unusual angle of the fire was revealed by Mr. E. W. Anstey. Since the blaze, he said, he had received a number of offers for his land which, apparently, was worth more with the buildings off than it was with them intact. “I was surprised at some of the at- tractive prices offered me,’,’ he said. “I decided that if it was worth that much to somebody else it was worth it to me,” he added. He ascribed some of the high prices offered to the possible am- algamation of North York to Tor- onto and desire of business men and citizens to be outside the met- ropolitan limits. “Then, too, well located land for business purposes is becoming very hard to get in this neighbourhood," he said. Narrow Escape With their building severely scorched on the outside and at points many feet away from the actual conflagration, Mr. and Mrs. Vern Griffin are busy wondering how it is that the Leader Store escaped the fate of its neighbours. While repairs to the building will cost a fair amount less than $5 worth of stock was damaged, says Mr. Griffin. While each of the Thornhill bus- iness men who suffered heavy losses in the fire is hard at work planning for the future, they are all ready to take time out for one thing. That is to express their gratitude for the ready and will- ing help given to them by every- body, both during the fire and also during the reconstruction period. Doncaster Ratepayers (Continued from page 1) growing Doncaster district. He mentioned roads, water supply and school problems as matters to be dealt with and said that he felt that the association should co-op- erate with the township council in seeing these were attended to. Following Mr. McAlpine’s ad- dress the gathering formally de- cided on the formation of an or- ganization to be known as the Doncaster Ratepayers’ Associa- tion. Besides Mr. McAlpine the following officers were elected: C. Clifford, vice-president; E. Schil- vers, secretary-treasurer; W. Chalmers, J. II. Knott, J. V. Pea- cock, C. G. Russell, directors. Meetings, it was decided, would be held on the second Friday of each month, and for the time be- ing will be in Jackson's factory. Dues are to be 50¢ per month per household. Bulletin boards giv- ing particulars of association ac- tivities are to be placed in the Doncaster area.
