Paramount's laugh-happy successor to "The Paleface"! ltdby Featurette Featuretté Cartoon On Wednesday afternoon of last, week at Richvale School, Mr. Dun- ning, the principal, and his stafi invited the parents to visit the dif- ferent rooms to observe the prac- tical demonstrations of present day methods of teaching their childâ€" ren. Considerable thought and ef- fort had gone into the Easter decâ€" orations by the pupils and teauners of each room, and other samples of the children’s work in art and pen- ‘mans‘hip were on display for the parents’ benefit. Present Day Teaching Methods Shown To Parents At Richvale In Grade 1 the pupils learned to read a selection they had not seen bfore and which included a. new word. In Grade 2 the boys and girls formed two teams and had a. coup test in arithmetic and then learned the lines of a new poem which they recited ience. In Grades 3 and 4 the teacher’s questions briefly reviewed the morning devotional period, and reading and the study of the sel- ection as English literature show- ed ‘how the pupils were encouraged to think of what they were reauing. (Continued from page 1) the dogs not only upset garbage pails, dumping the contents all over the street but were a hazard to children in that the latter fac- ed the possibility of being knock- ed down and injured by dogs lunging at each other and possibly biting the children. Attack Problems Aurora has approximately the same problem, according to Mayor Bell, who urged the appointment of a committee to go into the mat- ter. “We’re fed up with dogs run- ning loose” he commented. Out in the rural areas, the prob- lem is a éerious one for the far- mers and a costly one for the township which Has to indemnify farmers for sheep killed by the roving Rovers. In one case last year, Vaughan township 'had had to pay out $2,â€" 000 to a farmer for valuable sheep killedI and the price set on the destroyed animals had been very conservative, Reeve Hostrawser told the meeting. Over a ten year- period, he estimated the township paid out an average "of $1,800 a year for this purpose. Deputy Reeve Dalton Rumney described similar conditions in Markham township which paid out about $1,200 a year for sheep kill- ed. Should Have Effect The psychological effect of a campaign to enforce dog bylaws would be an' important factor in cleaning up the situation Councill- or Tomlin of Richmond Hill Opined. Once the general public realizea the councils were making a ser- ious enforcement effort, they would be more likely to adhere to the law. He referred to a recent case in which a school girl had been knocked down by a dog and had to be hospitalized as a result. In addition to appointing a com- .mittee, the meeting authorized Clerk Lynett to contact Humane Societies and secure information on the regulation of dogs in other communities. The question of- joint action on an incinerator came in for con- siderable discussion. In introduc- ing the project, Reeve Neal said he didn’t think there would be an early action but a little long-range planning on this and other projects would be beneficial to all concern- ed.. “The time is coming when we have to get away from the idea of garbage dumps,” he said. They are a menace to health and they certainly depreciate proprty val- ues in th vicinity.” Besides, he pointed out, garbage collectors sometimes can’t even get into the dumps because of snow conditions in winter and mud in the spring and fall. Councillor Robson raised the question of Whether it would be possible to work out an arrange- mnt with North York to have garbage burned in their incinera- tor but Councillor Mrs. Fielding suggested the trucking cost might be prohibitive. It was also pointâ€" ed out that eventually North York might have to utilize all its facil- ities to take care of its own gar- bage. The question of cost of an in- cinerator was brought up and es- timates based on a trip made to Tonawanda, N.Y., by several coun- cillors some time ago ranged from $40,000 to $120,000. In addition to the four munici- palities representedr Newmarket and King and thltchurch town- ships ‘will be alsked to join the committee if they so desire. Your .

The Social Study per- iod showed the linking togethct of history and geography, while the written test Which followed demon- strated how well they had grasped the lesson. Grades 6. 7 and 8 had an oral spelling test by popular request (of the parents), which was much enjoyed by all present. A “hockey match” between the “Maple Leafs’ and‘ the “Chicago Black Hawks": captained by two of the pupils. made a game of locating places on the map. After school the parents were served a very welcome cup of .tea. and refreshments by the teachers and the girls of the senior room. Municipal Officials Voice Appreciation Editor’s Assistance Tribute was paid, at the close of the special meeting held last Tues- day at which members of Rich- mond Hill, Aurora, Markham Tp. and Vaughan Township Councils discussed problems in which they were all interested, to Col. F. J. Picking, Managing Editor of The Liberal, who is leaving this week to take over publication of the Aurora Banner. During the years that he has been at the helm of the Liberal, said Reeve Neal, Richmond Hill, Col. Picking had worked in harâ€" mony with‘municipal officials of the district, had given sympath- etic attention to their problems and had done a great deal towards assisting in their work. He had also been active in other community activities, said the Reeve, and had been largely resâ€" ponsible for thE'SUCCeSS of the Business Men’s Association ’and the 1950 Trade Fair, which had given a substantial stimulus to business in Richmond Hill. Reeve John HostraWser added his tribute to Reeve Neal’s remarks and May- or Alec Bell of Aurora expressed satisfaction that Col. Picking was to become publisher of his town’s paper. Reeve Neal also introduced 3. W. Murphy,'who is taking over ’editorial duties vacated by Colon- el Picking. In reply Col. Picking expressed appreciation of the whole-hearted co-operation he had always receiv- ed from municipal oflicials. It had contributed much, he said, to- wards making his job easier.

C. Snively in her talk of her recent trip entitled “From Ancient Egypt to Modern England,” to the Evening Guild of St. Mary’s Anglican Church, in the PariSh Hall Tuesday evening. Mrs. Sniveley is the holder of the O.B.E. for services rendered in canteen work during the last war. Travel Makes Appreciation Of Canada Mrs. S. C. Snively Tells Evening Guild Mrs. Snively and her husband travelled through France, Italy, Egth, Greece and England, and although impressed and delighted with thecolor and charm of each place, were saddened by conditions resulting from the war. While in Italy they visited the British cem- etery at Cassino, the main purpose of their trip, and found the 4600 graves there beautifully kept. In this cemetery are buried British, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand soldiers, each grave mark- ed with a little white headstone. At the time of their visit/rose bush- es were being planted at the base of each stone, another tribute to those who had fallen. Granted a special audience with Pope Pius in Rome, Mr. and Mrs. Snively talked with His Holiness for five minutes, finding him very gracious, with a kind Word for the Canadian people. During an eight day visit in Egypt where they visited the Pyra- mids tWelve miles outside of Cairo, Mrs. N. Chaterley introduced Mrs. Snively and Mrs. Hardwick thanked her on behalf of the Guild, presenting her with a bouquet of spring flowers. Mrs. Ruth Banks, president of th society, presided at. the meeting. 23 MARKHAM ROAD Phone ZI-W RICHMOND HILL, ONT. TER ATIUNAL HARVESTER REFRGERATORS x NOW . . .
