Powell Avenue in Doncaster and'a Powell Road on the other side of Yonge Street in Vaughan Township. “Suggest some names to us,” the council agreed.

They were winners of the lucky draw prizes at the event â€" prizes given by local businesses to Show appreciation of the firemen’s work. Besides them there were some other happy people â€" the prize winners at cards. They were, in the bridge section, Mrs. Lawrence, Mr. D. Chamney, Miss Margaret Ireland, Mr. A. J. McLatchy, Mrs. Tom Taylor, Mr. John Knox. Eu- chre winners were Mrs. C. Ryan, Victor Piirto, Mrs. N. Cook, Mrs. Len. Hill, Mrs. Arbon, Mr. W. J. Hustin. ' Luckiest one of all, however, was Miss L. Barnes of 37 Arnold St., Richmond Hill, who won the big prize of the evening â€"- a suit. Mel Reesor of Markham carried home A letter from Doncaster Rate- 1ayers ASSociation dealt Wth a number of local points. It reques- ted a Ditch Award to clear up the storm water problem on Morgan Avenue. This was referred to the road committee, as was a recom- mendation that storm water be taken north from Clark Avenue along Dudley to the stream bed north of the Mason property. Also requested was the inclus- ion of Dudley Avenue, north of Clarke, and Seccomoe Street south of Proctor in the area to be ad- vertised for local improvements. This was agreed to. There’s quite a story behind the‘ name. Jack and Bud were in the Navy during the last war. On their return it was decided that they would go into business with their father. But what were they going to ,call themselves? “Sim- ple,” said a friend. “Call it Jack, Bud and Dad.” That, in abbrev- iated form, was the name decided on then and there. The friend, incidentally, didn’t waste any time. Before the family knew about it he had the name regis‘ tered. “What does ‘J. B. and D.’ stand for?” customers of a district business are fond of asking. “Jack, Bud and Dad,” is the answer given by members of the Hildebrand family, which trades under the name of the J. B. and D. Company at Unionville. The “front” â€" otherwise the Yonge Street section of the township, occupied a considerable amount of the time of Markham Township councillors when they held their meet- ing Monday, with both Elmwood Park and Doncaster occupy- ing the stage. It was back in 1945 that the present business started. Hilde- brand, senior, while manager for a paint company developed the idea of manufacturing the modern tool for applying paint â€"â€"- the rollers which have gained such popular- ity in recent years. The first plant was in his home and garage in Weston. Moving to Unionville eleven months ago he and his sons really went to work. Before that about twenty thousand roll- ers a year Were being made and shipped. Anticipated output for this year is five times as great 4â€" a hundred thousand or more. The fact that forty thousand have been shipped in the last two months 13 an indication that the big figure may not be too optimistic.

"Thirteenth Bill” Largest Yet The amount rebated to the mun- icipality for 195U_Js wguomx. m 1949 it was $663.91; in 1948 $1,- 053.68 and in 1947 it was $1,372.65. Opposition to lots of 30 foot frontage on projected sub-divisions were voiced. “The by-law doesn’t permit 30 foot lots," councillors pointed out. Discussion of the installation of the water system in Elmwood Park with Township Engineer Harold Babcock took place, in readiness for its installation at an early date. The council also agreed to consider extension of the water area in the district to the south of Elmwood Park. Information as to the estimated cost of a weekly garbage collection in the area was asked for. Coun- cil decided to deal with this at a meeting to be held with Vaughan Township council. vent a repetition Deciding to advertise f0) two more policemen for the township, council aso hoisted salaries for present members of the force. A by-law to levy half a mill n farm properties of five acres and over for the Federation of Agricul- ture was adopted. Building permits amounting to $113,000 had been issued during the month_ Building Inspector Ross Norton reported. the radio which was second prize. Mrs. C. Cook, 13 Crosby Avenue, won the third prize, a lamp. Mr. P. Bonnick of Wallaceburg captur- ed fourth prize, a tray; and Al's. Bert Cook won fifth, electric iron. Sixth prize, a toaster, went to H. McConnell of R. R. 2 Maple. Members of the brigade have asked The Liberal to express their appreciation of the support which was given to them both by those who attended and made the event such an outstanding success, and by those who gave such a large selection of fine prizes for it. It turned out to be a sleepless night for the firefighters. Only a few hours after winding: up their successful party 4â€" at 4.30 am. â€"â€" they were called to a fire at Yionge- burst Road where a person smok- ing in bed had set fire to a mat- tress. Attendance surprised even the optimistic firemen, with 87 tables being played. the complete manufacture locally of all parts of the several types of roller kits which the firm handles. Distribution of the rollers is from coast to coast in Canada and in recent weeks has spread tu the United States. A firm in Roches- ter, N.Y., is now taking a thousand a week. Besides paint rollers the.firm has a big business in another modern line â€"â€" weed-killers. Taking a tour of the west in 1947 to investi- gate possibilities, Mr. Hildebi‘ani. sold two carloads in Regina, one in Winnipeg. Returning home he developed his first sprayer in 1948. It was crude, he admits, but; has been developed since and its hand- ling is now a big part of the J. B. and D. business. The firm’s spray- er is recognized as one of the best and is doing an important part in spreading Weedanol â€" the firm’s product â€" and is counterparts in the modern method of removing weeds from lawns, grain crops and in killing brush. ' Incidentally, Mr. Hildebrand says that Weed-spraying is just coming into its own in Ontario. The west, he states, has been “weed-killer-conscious” for a much longer time but, with the present methods receiving the endorsation of agricultural experts and colleges the east is now taking hold vf it in a big way. Hydro then either pays the short- age or receives a rebate of the amount overpaid. Hence the term “thirteenth bill.” A (SOâ€"ft. motor launch, built in Britain, is made entirely of alum- inum alloy and constructed on aerO- plane principles using the stress- ed sin envelope method. Its displacement of 12 tons is only about one-sixth of that of a comparable wooden vessel. Design- er is Mr. Brian Grimston, ex-R.A. A NEW ALUMINUM LAUNCH Vaughan, Markham Twp. Discuss Thornhill Walks Fire Protection & Lights Sidewalks, garbage collection, street lighting and fire protection for Thornhill were dealt with at a joint meeting of Markham and Vaughan Township Councils held at Unionille on Tuesday. Considering sidewalks, council- lors felt that it would be unwise to go ahead with a pemanent ce- ment sidewalk on the east side of Yonge Street at the present time on account of the fact that the fill at the side of the highway had not settled sufficiently after the widening which took place, last summer. It was agreed, however, that a gravel or cinder base would be put in from Thornhill to Steele’s Corners, with further work to be considered after the ground had become more settled. Markuam Township is to be responsible for arrangements in connection with Land on which driHing for water for Richvale School has been car- ried out successfully has been pur- chased, it was reported to School Area Board No. 1, Markham and Vaughan, at its meeting on March 1. Water will be piped to the school as soon as weather permits. Purchase price of the land was $750. Drilling for water for the new school at the Scott subâ€"division was also being carried on, it was Stated, with the drillers down 25 feet at the time of the meeting. Plans of that school were submitted by Ar- chitect Alan Deacon. Covering four rooms and a playroom, they have been tentatively approved by the Department of Education. They would attend any ratepay- ers association meeting to which they were invited, trustees decided and give an outline of the work ac- complished since they took office this year and of the problems which the board faced. The annual meeting for the York County members of the Map- le Cattle Breeders’ Association will be held in the Parish Hall at Newmarket on Wednesday next, March 14, at 1.30 to receive the annual report and elect directors for the coming year. Last year it was suggested ‘by some of'the members that the breeders in York County should have their meeting separate from the general meeting to give them an oppor- tunity to discuss problems per- taining to York as well as a chance to meet their inseminators. Trustees Jackson Taylor, Keith Richan and Nathan Hicks were up. When this was approved by the Board it was felt that since the general annual meeting would be held at Maple on March 27 it would be in the interests of the membership as a whole to hold the county meeting at Newmarket this year. Ratepayers’ Leaders, Trustees Discuss School Area Problems Maple Cattle Breeders ToMeet At Newmarket It is interesting to note the growth of this organization which was originally set up to serve the Maple district. During the past year two groups were organized by the dairymen at Powassan and Verner in the North Bay area, as well as at Owen Sound in Grey County. Two weeks ago the first shipment of semen was made 0 Fort Francis almost on the Mani- toba boundary in Rainy River District and a second centre is practically organized in Gray County. Clocking 3. Gray Coach bus at 65 m.p.h. for one mile south of Richmond Hill, O.P.P. Constable W. G. Hulse stated in Newmarket court that it passed the police cruiser travelling at a high rate of speed. Frank Ware, the driver, in his defence said that it would be im- possible for him to go that; fast after having slowed down to thir- ty miles an hour through the town. Magistrate 0. S. Hollinrake re- minded the accused that the Prov- invicial Police were on the high- way to check not only civilian of- fenders but busses and commer- cial vehicles as well. Ware was fined ten dollars and costs.

Action in connection with the improvement of the lighting sys‘ ten is to be initiated, with Vaugh- an Township assuming responsibil- ity for this. A discussion on fire protection brought forth several points of view, with some councillors feeling that protection at present afforded by North York and Richmond Hill was as adequate as that which could be given by a local brigade, and as speedy. Emphasis was placed on the fact that the intro- duction of a fire department would cost taxpayers a considerable sum. Reeve Win. Timbers of Markham is to consult further with the Thorn- hill trustees» pointed a committee to meet teach- ers of the school area and to dis- cuss mutual problems. The new bus service taking child- ren from the Yongehurst Road area to school was reported to be work- ing satisfactorily. Reported shortage of suppleâ€" mefitary reading matter in Powell Road school led to a decision to provide a library centaining nec- essary books. J. B. MacAlpine, president of Doncaster Ratepayers Association, and R. E. Priestman of Higmand Park Ratepayers Association, at- tended the meeting and discussed 'the development of their areas with relation to school accommoda- tion and safety of children going to and from school.

Trustees will also visit all schools in the area to see that equal standards are being main- tained and that administration is being maintained satisfactorily.
