Clement and their seven children spent Sat- urday night with neighbours. Lack of Water Firemen of the Richmond Hill Brigade were hindered in fighting the blaze by the lack of water and the strong west wind which whip- ped the flames into an inferno. Water from the truck reservoir was used to prevent the flames from spreading to nearby houses. The building was totally destroycl in an hour and nothing was saved from the blaze. It was believed the fire resulted from overheated fur- nace pipes. Neighbours Aid Neighbours came to the aid of the destitute family immediately providing clothing, etc. The Rich- mond Hill Lions Club opened the Community Hall for donations last Sunday. The community respond- ed geneg'ouslx with clothing, bed- ding and furhiture.

Mr. and Mrs. George Schell formerly of Can-ville Rd., Richvale, celebrated their 50th wedding anniVersary Monday, February 23. Mr. Schell who is 77 and Mrs. Schell, 73. are both active and enjoying the best of health. Celebrating with them were their five children wha all live in Toronto. Mr. Schell, who was the only Boer War recruit from Richmond Hill, was pres- ented with a gold watch and chain on his return in 1901, by the Ladies Auxiliary of the village. The watch was made by the late Jerry Smith and was presented to him, along with a gold locket from the citizens of the village, at a carnival and reception in his honour. The Liberal joins with the district in wishing Mr. and Mrs. Schell many more years of happiness. of Whitchurch Twp. Celebrate 50th Anniversary MEETING In Vandorf Hall Chairman It was decided at- last Monday’s meeting of the Vaughan Twp. Council that the new aSSessment which was started last spring should be completed for the as- sessment roll this fall. This pro- ject has been under consideration for several years and in 1952 the actual work was begun. In past years, the assessment has been ba- sed, for the most part, on the op- inion of the assessor who inspects the properties, however, this new system will have as a basis a Unit Value for certain areas and cer- tain types of dwelling, etc. The assessors and their assistants will measure all the buildings in the township and, using the unit value, will be able to compute more ac- curately the assessment of the property. Although it will not make a revolutionary change in in- dividual assessments, there will be some noticeable changes. Council has seriously consider- ed the matter before making this decision as it is a most important item. At the opening of the dis- cussion, Reeve Marshall McMur- chy pointed out that it would cost approximately $6,000. to complete the assessment this year. Councillor Robson 7 stated, “I don’t think we will gain much by hurrying through the whole busi- ness in one year.” Deputy Reeve Albert Rutherford asked, “Do you think we will save much by carrying the reassessment over for another year?" The Reeve replied, “ankly, No." Reeve McMurchy commented, “We will certainly have to make up our minds on two points: are we going to complete the matter this year and will it be satisfactory if H .‘.. A-.._ A” n. “a”... the clerk, James McDonald, for his opinion on the matter. He replied that with the proper organization and extra of- fice help it could be cleaned up this year as easily and as efficiently as next year. Council asked "I think you are taking a pretty big step,” cautioned Councillor Robson. The majority of Council, however, felt that the whole thing could be completed by fall with- out too much difficulty. Provincial Manual Deputy Reeve Rutherford stated, “We certainly won't gainfiy letting this thing drag on for another year". to which the Reeve added, “I, personally, would like to see it finished up this year." In discussing the type of man- ual to be used when the new as- sessment is complete, Council felt that the Provincial manual would prove more satisfactory than the present County Manual.

In connection with the proposed completion of the assessment, Council agreed to purchase a com- puting machine. The matter of additional staff and present staff changes was left to the discretion of the clerk. Councillor Robson said. “After all the clerk under- stands the needs of the office far better than we do.” This change in staff has made it necessary for the township to look for a man for the position of Building Inspector to replace George Bailey who has been moved into the assessing de- partment.

Mr. Cameron said that the Old Boys, the Junior Farmers and the Women’s Institute were willing to contribute as much as possible towards the cost of instal- lation. Council agreed that a pub- lic building such as the hall where public functions are held should have a good sanitation system. Reeve McMurchy advised these three groups to meet with a con- tractor to obtain an estimate. He indicated that the township would be willing to go along with the plan. Fire Protection mittee, submitted the request of the Police Dept. for radios in their cars. Council felt that the request was out of range of the township purse. Councillor Perry com- mented, "I don’t think there is any need to discuss the matter further because the cost would be beyond our present resources.” Vellore Hall Council drafted a 10 year agree- ment with the Rob3'150n Cotton Mills in Woodbridge for fire pro- tection in the township. l, Chairman of ‘ee, submitted Police Dept. f1 submitted the req ce Dept. for radios ‘ouncil felt that the of range of the t he police ‘5 were gr‘ 9c per m Why not cut down the drudgery of house work with these bright, new, labor saving devices from Answell Limited.
