Although they are not for obvious reasons advertised they none the less ac- count for the greatest part of all the funds spent each year. Apart from their charitable endeavors Lions also give unstintingly of their leisure time to the promo- tion of many worth-while under- takings in their respective com- munities. Some of these are lea- ‘dership in all fields of sport for the youth of the district, promo- tion and assistance in the collec- tion of funds for such organiza~ tions as the Society for Crippled Children in their Easter Seal Campaign, The Salvation Army Red Shield Campaign and many ‘others. gnu-a..â€" N- Broadlysheakinig these activipies can be divided into two groups, the first - those undertaken to assist others and sec- ond - those undertaken to raise the funds required to carry on the first. Lions Carnival Augustllth Square Dance Competitions For Young AndOld In The Evening "Lions" participate in civic af- fairs by taking office on school boards and municipal councils and other such public bodies. In this connection it is interesting to note that for the last six or seven years at least, and possibly long- er, every reeve of Richmond Hill has, during his term of office, ‘been a member of the Lions. At this season of the year, when most Service Clubs are Winding up their activities for the, summer season, it is well to consider briefly the part that these clubs are playing in the everyday world. Until just recently most of the clubs of this type in this district were Lions Clubs, of which Richmond Hill Club is one of the most active. Therefore a summary of its activities should be indicative of all. Perhaps the most ambitious ac- tivity of the Richmond Hill Club has been the promotion and com- pletion of the community hall which, although it has only [been open a few months, is already proving its need by providing ac- commodation for such worthwhile organizations as the Girl Guides. the teen-age square.dance group, the Horticultural Society and oth- ers. So much for the first group of activities! What of the second! These are perhaps better known since they are advertised far and wide, but it is to the credit of the Lions that they seldom attempt to raise money by direct subscrip- tion, preferring rather to give something in return for the mon- Vaughan Twp. Planning Board Refuses Request To Build Motel Vaughan Township Planning Board met Monday night at the council chambers in Maple, and was confronted with a large delegation which protested the erection of a motel on part of lot 6 on the 7th concession of Vaughan, by Mrs. R. Dineen. The Board adhered to the wishes of the delegation refusing to allow the building of a Motel in this area.- Council members also sat with the five-man board which consists of Darrell Goulding, Elgin Mills, E. W. Anstey, Thornhill, Les. Laver, Maple, councillor Wm. Agar, and Reeve M. McMurchy who sits as an ex ofiicio member of the Board. The Township's Planning Board has been in existence since 1948 and pays for the services of a Planning Consultant, Dr. E. G. Faludi. ‘ The delegation stated that it was there in the interests of the community as a whole and not of any private individuals. They pointed out that they felt the building of a motel would tend to depreciate the value of the bor- dering properties as well as vast- ly change the character of the disrict. They added that architectually no one was opposed to a motel but morally they were opposed to one. The wish expressed by the del- egation was to keep this stated ar- ea a residential one, if possible, and if at present no restrictions cover the area, they stated they would urge council to pass such restrictions. They said a motel was a symbol of the undesirable businesses they did not want to locate near their property. Mr. V. J. O'Malley, Settlement Supervisor for Veterans Land Act in Markham and Vaughan Town- ships is sponsoring a Junior Gar- den competition in his area this year. “You realize, of course," said Deputy-Reeve Rutherford, “that according to by-law a motel can- not be built in this area. but any- thing else can. A dance hall could go up in its place. We would have to amend the by-law if we decided to permit Mrs. Dineen to build her motel." The idea was prompted by the enthusiasm shown by a large number of children in previous development competitions spon- ored by Veterans' Land Act. The following veterans groups and local businessmen recogniz- ing that a project of this kind is another step toward local prop- erty improvement have made gen- erous donations for cash prizes. VJ.

Unionville; Sheppard and Gill Lumber Co., Butler and Baird Lumber ,Co., Perkins Farm and Home Equip- ment. H. W. Mortson and Rich- mond Hill Dairy, all of Richmond Hill; Answell Ltd., Thornhill; Wm Since the local club depends on its carnival to raise the greatest part of the funds required to car- ry on its activities, it is hoped that everyone will keep this day .open and come along to give the [boys a boost and to share in their :worthy work. ey they receive. Consequently. they engage in bingos, raffles, au- ction sales, etc., and in the case of the local club. at least, hold a monster carnival each year on Civic Holiday. This year the carnival will be held as usual in the Municipal Park Monday, August 4, and will be even bigger and better than in former years. Under the chair- manship of Lion Basil Munday, great plans are already underway to provide many special feature attractions. The St. Andrew‘s Girls Pipe Band is one - they will furnish music in their inimitable style throughout the grounds. A Tiny-tots theatre is another added attraction. Here the youngsters ‘can enjoy their favorite comedy while father or mother indulge in their favorite game of skill in the Midway. There will also be pony- rides for the children, and even special mechanical rides as well. And of course for the grown-ups there will be the ever-popular bingo with prizes galore. Somewhat later in the evening. the draw for the 1952 Plymouth Coach for which the Lions are al- ready selling tickets, \vilLtake place, 5 well as that for the sec- ond pr ze, a television set. All of this will be topped ofi with a mammoth fireworks display, in short, this is to be a wonderful day of entertainment for young and old alike. In the evening there will be dancing to Russ Greighton‘s or- chestra, and as an added feature. two square dance compeiiuons. one for grown-ups and one for teen-agers. After further discussion the Board felt that in view of the op- position the building of a motel received, it wasn’t feasible to a- mend the by-law, to permit the erection of one. “We’ll have to draw the line somewhere,” said Reeve McMur- chy, “or we’ll be continually re- quested for such approvals." “We were a little surpriSed at the number who objected to this motel,” said Reeve McMurchy, “and are glad to find out the chief objections to it. At the present time the township is being zoned but it takes time for these things to be completed. We will certainly consider the delegation's opin- ions,” he added. A letter was received from A. Prowse of Willowdale asking for permission to purchase two acres of land on lot 4, concession 6 of the township, from Mr. F. Newton. he Board decided to inform M. Prowse that decision on the matter had been deferred until a definite policy could be decided upon. A letter was received from Stu- art P. Parker on behalf of David McLean of Thornhill, asking for permission for Mr. McLean to inn stal four hydro-electric meters on part of lot 30 west side of Yonge Street, Thornhill. Decision on this matter was also deferred. Gravely Canadian Co.. Toronto; H. R. Lenhardt, Richvale; Chas. Ireland and Son. Woodbridge; F. Robson, Maple: Chas. Maynard 8: Son, Unionville. Thieves last Sunday night took $1,000 worth of tires. tools and appliances but got only $3 in cash in break-ins on two adjoining premises in Markham village. At Campbell Motors. 15 new tires. an electric radio and a new chest of tools belonging to one of the employees were missing when the proprietor opened the garage Monday morning. Thieves At Markham Village Large Gathering Features Richvale Sch. Garden Party Richvale School Garden Par- ty which was held on Friday af- ternoon and evening was a great success. Each room had its dis- play of work including hand- made garden and other orna- ments and samples of needle- sold during-the afternoon. The auction sale of articles that re- mained and the draw on the quilt for which the children had made their own blocks in art class, and quilted it was held in the evening with Mr. Kenneth Bradshaw as auctioneer. In true country style a brown and white dog appeared during the proceedings to contribute his well meant “remarks”. Mr. Walter Wynn loaned and set up a PA. system over which records were played to provide music for the day. and the pony rides were supplied for four hours by Mrs. Skippon and her horse “Silver”, and Ronnie Durham and his father and their pony Bob, till horses and owners were almost ready to drop. ' Judging from all the comments heard from those who attended. one of the'most successful events of the Elmwood-Harding Ratepayc ers Association was the Hobby Show held in the Public School auditorium last Friday night. Credit for the success of. the Show is due to the chairman, Mrs. Ruth Rabinowitch. who not only found time 'to show a fine display of her art work. but also person- ally visited many homes in the area seeking material for the Show. To Mrs. Robinowitch all members of the association say “Well done.” To be a success, willing exhibi- tors are also necessary and to those who so kindly brought their handicrafts, curios, antiques, etc.. the Association gives a hearty vote of thanks. A very fine showing was made by the children between lxteen and because their work was so well done and it was al- most impossible to reach a uec..-,- ion, it was decided to give each one a prize. For these prizes the Association is grateful to Mr. hed Hill of the Richmond Theatre who donated theatre passes, and 3 Vince Lawrence, who domte'l :amples from General Foods Ltd. Baseball games between adults and students were enjoyed under ideal weather conditions. Some of us found out that the younger generation are no slouches when it comes to baseball, (doesn't Rich- vale School hold the cups for‘the second year in succession?) but Elmwood - Harding Ratepayers Hold Hobby Show At School 24 YONGE ST.

Paul who scored a home run for, the mothers’ team. The movies provided through the courtesy of the Public Refer- ence Library were run for sever- al hours and provided a welcome retreat for tired feet. Mr. Baer and his able stafi deserve a great deal of credit for organizing and conducting such a good commun- ity-wide occasion. The-work of the pupils was splendid and show- ed much talent and hard work. The Home and School had its first opportunity to help out and res- ponded nobly. The requts of the draw were as follows: The quilt was won by Mrs. Burnie, Mill Road. The pyrex sauceâ€"pan donated by Richvale Hardware was won by Miss M. Sibbald. An estimated 250 meals were served in addition to the after- noon tea. ‘ an added attraction for the child- ren in the way of movies shown in the upper hall. The winning ticket for the doll with the outfit crocheted and don- ated by Mrs. Thomas Wood is No. 282, and is as yet unclaimed. Please keep your supper tickets, for another draw will be made if the doll is unclaimed within two weeks. Among the many exhibits were some very beautiful paintings, sculpturing, dressmaking. a mod- el of an old time ship, hand-made rugs, crocheting and tatting, knit- ting, hand-made quilts, home bak- ing. stamps, flowers, budgie birds, rabbits, an aquarium, and many others. Because of rain the area fire- works display was postponed on May 24. and held the following Friday in the park area of Hard- ing Park. For the first year this was a very successful event with the usual individual fireworks ha- zards being eliminated. It is hop- ed by the association that this will be an annual event. The associa- tion wishes to thank all those par- ents who donated to this cause and for the benefit of those who did so a short financial statement LOUOVVSZ Donations received am- ounted to $63.30 and the cost of ‘seworks and candy was $63.00. It is hoped that this will become an annual event. At the close of the evening a cake on display was auctioned off with Harry Sayers being the suc- cessful high bidder. It is hoped that the next show will be even bigger and if possible better. REMEMBER MI] 0“ FATHERS’ DAY JUNE 15 "Your Friendly Store” RICHMOND HILL THE LIBERAL. Richmond Hill, Thursday, June 12, 1952 3 Well, we do own a kegnel, but we don’t buy, bathe; board, clip or trim dogs; we just sell them â€" sometimes. However, the author of the question looked like a nice young man and we thought we might help. He had a little Trouble, not much, attached to the end of a leash, about the size of an Aire- dale, about the color of old, very old, Airforce sweater, with nice hazel eyes, four inches of coat, and that defeated look common to all dogs who have been thorough- ly washed in one of the new sweet- smelling detergents. All Trouble needed was a good trimming and his nails clipped. Well, for nearly an hour we snipped and sheared and plucked and thinned and combed and pol- ished until we got down to one of the nicest Kerry Blue Terriers we have ever seen. ‘ After that there was a long sat- isfying discussion about judging, ring stewards, trophies, handlers, coat blowing, liver and egg yolk, “show-coat,” whiskers and pedi- grees, and the bill was five doll- ars Where was Trouble going?
