Plans for a bigger and better Trade Fair in Richmond Hill in 1951 were speeded along at an exâ€" ecutive meeting of the Business Men‘s Association Sunday after- noon at the home of Ed. Croth, chairman of the committee in charge of the event. Plans Progress For Trade. Fair June 15th,16th Feature of this year’s event will be a draw in which a televnsion set is expected to be the grand prize and details in connection Iith this will be worked out and tickets made available at a later date. This community was sorry to learn of the, fire which partially destroyed the parsonage_ the home of Rev. A. C. Forrest of Port Cred- it. President Art Uren opened the Sunday meeting and then turned the chair over to Mr. Croth for a discussion of Trade Fair business. On a motion by Archie Murray and Wallie Burnie, a committee of four including President Uren' Mr. Croth, J. W. Murphy and Jacx Hart was named to visit new business firms and welcome them in the us- ual manner. On a motion by Art Uren and Archie Murray, Bud Jones and Jack Harte were named to arrénge for entertainment at the Fair. It was decided to have Bill Sclmrman handle the insurance for the event. The next meeting of the execu- tive will be held May 8 at the home of President Art Uren. Shortly after 4 am. Sunday mor- ning, April 23, Rev. Forrest who is the minister of First United Cnurch Port Credit was awakened by his wife who smelled smoke.

Forrest re- ceived severe burns when he res- cued their pet dog Torchy. Dates for the fair this year are Friday and Saturday. June 15 and 16 and the Business Men’s Assoc- iation hope that it will prove oven more popular than last year. With demand for exhibition space ex- pected to exceed‘the capacity of the arena, it will probably be nec- essary to erect marquees around the building. Several property transfers in Richmond Hill have been completed recently, reports L. H. Clement who represents the R. H. Kane Real Es- tate Agency, Richmond Hill. Rev. Forrest is the son 06 Mr. and Mrs. Alec Forrest and spent most of his life in Maple, until he entered the ministry.

At least the way we’ve already told. it â€" off the rec- ord, of course â€" it wouldn’t be printable, anyhow. To paraphrase an old saw, most of us hereabouts are in the position where we can eith- er take our mud or leave it alone. But we can be philo- sophical about it. It’s got to be a pretty muddled world, anyway â€"- so what’s a little extra mud between friends? wfi J. E. Smith and Reeve Wm. Neal were elected Honorary Presidents of the club.

Messrs. K. Richan, N. D. Hicks and Jackson Taylor were the committee representing the Area Board. Messrs. D. Smith, R. Brown and Miss E. Marshall rep- resented the teachers of the area. The Trustees were impressed with the sincerity and the good- will which was demonstrated by the teachers' committee. Mr. D. Smith. mho acted as chairman of the teac ers’ committee, emphas- ized that the teachers considered that their first obligation was to the children of the Area. Remuner- ation came second. It was the un- animous opinion of the trustees’ committee that the teachers were fulfilling their duties as teacners very ably, and doing a marvellous job working under trying eundi- tions. The Board appreciates great- ly their interest and cooperation in getting the newly formed School Area functioning properly. In presenting this salary sched- ule the Board feels that it is a step in the right direction in demon- strating to the teachers of our Area that ratepayers are interested in their standard of living, which depends largely on the income one receives. The Trustees, in making the adjustment felt that they should show their appreciation for the interest and zeal which the teachers are demonstrating in our schools by a salary schedule which gives the staff of the Area 3. basis of security for'the future. Further, the Board believes the salary sche- dule will induce members of the Stat! to become residents of the Area. The schedule is as follows: Clause 1 (a) All teacher-5' who have been employed by the School Area No. 1 of Markham and Vau- ghan for one (1) year or more shall receive on September 1, 1951, Three Hundred Dollars ($300.00) increase in his or her salary for the year of 1951-1952. (b) 'Area” shall refer to the former school sections of Thornlca, Langstaff, Thornhill and Richvale. Clause 2 (a) The salary for the teachers shall be: Minimum Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00); Maximum; Three Thousand Doll-- ars ($3,000.00). (b) Probatidn- ary: lst year $2,000.00; 2nd year $2,100.00; 3rd year $2,200.00; 4th year 82,400.00; 5th year $2,600.00. (c) The difi'erence of $400.00 be'- tween $2,600.00 and $3,000.00 shall be granted in part or parts as an additional salary increase to the teacher or teachers during the first five years or any such time there- after as the Board may wish. It is understood by both the‘ Trustees’ Committee and the Tea- chers’ Committee that the following basic principle for salary increase from $2,600.00 to $3,000.00 will be used: (d) For teaching proficiency ab- 9ve average, or satisfactory scand- dards.
