At a special meeting Tues- dya afternoon Richmond Hill council set the ’53 tax rate at 71 mills, on a motion, moved by councillor Perkins and sec- onded by councillor Middleton and unanimously endorsed by council. The 1953 rate is four below last year's rate of 75. The drop is attributed to the increased assessment brought about by the recent annexation of approximately 1000 acres and 800 residents.

Mr. Peelar was well known throughout the district as a successful farmer. Both admit times have changed considerably in the past 50 years. Mrs. Peelar, the former Emma Stobbart, was born in Highfield, Ont., and Mr. Peelar was born in New Toronto. They were married in Malton by the late Rev. Mr. Hall. Mrs. Peelar's two sisters, Mrs. William Clarkson and Mrs. R. Banks and her sister-in-law, Mrs. T. Stobbart, poured tea during the afternoon. Assisting in the dining room were Mrs. Roy Peelar. Mrs. Arthur Peelar, Miss Kathleen Weddel and Mrs. Myles Boylen. In the evening Mrs. Alfred Bagg and Mrs. Ernest Stong poured tea and were assisted by Mrs. Charles Reid, Mrs. Frank Banks, Miss Margaret Coakely, Miss Clara Banks and Miss Ella Whitmore. Mrs. Boylen and Miss Weddel also assisted in the evening. Mrs. Frank Locke remained all day and evening and assisted in many ways. The bride of fifty years ago, smartly attired in a blue silk crepe frock and corsage of yellow roses, received over 100 guests during the afternoon and evening. The dining room table, covered with a lovely madeira cloth, was centered with a tiered anniversary cake flanked on each side by tall gold- en tapers in crystal containers. A delightful program of soft organ music was presented throughout the afternoon by Miss Gould of Woodbridge and by Mrs. Albert Peelar in the evening. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Peelar celebrated their 50th wedding an- niversary at an afternoon and evening reception in their home at Edgeley on Wednesday, March 25. Assisting the host and hostess were their two sons and their wives, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Peelar and Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Peelar. Scores of residents from the dis- trict came to offer congratulations personally to the happy couple. Mr. and Mrs. Peelar were also the recipients of many congratulatory cards and gifts from their well- wishing friends and relatives. Mr. & Mrs. C. Peelar Celebrate Golden Wedding At Edgeley J. R.

Office hours will be 9 to 5, six days a week. Of- fice employees will work five days a week, a day off to be arranged to suit the convenience of the clerk and his staff. All permanent em- ployees will have a week’s vaca- tion with pay after consecutive months employment. Sick leave will be deducted from the vacation period. Appoint Inspector Discussing the tentative appro- val requested by Oak Ridges Pub- lic School Board of a $101,000 ad- dition to the school, Whitchurch Township council decided to ask its solicitor for a ruling on “tenta- tive approval,” which according to the opinion of council is contrary to the School Act.

A verbal agreement between a Mr. Leslie and the owner of the service sta-. tion in 1933 was all that could be traced. The question, who is res- ponsible for lowering the culvert still remains unanswered. A letter from W. J. Deyette, C. N.R., to the township, re the ob- struction to view of the highway grade crossing Bala Subdivision (Lake Wilcox Sideroad), suggest- ed that the municipality be advis- ed that they should apply to the Board of Transport Commission for an order directing improve- ment at the crossing. If the board sees fit, Mr. Deyette contin- ued, to issue such an order it should have the power to order that the obstruction to the view be removed, the expense to be divid- ed among the parties concerned.

Provincial Oratorical Finals Trustees decided that they would take no action in this matter until audited statements for 1952 from both Markham and Vaughan Townships were received. Request Street Lights A letter was received from A. Ecclestone, village legal adviser, stating that after trustees request- ed him to investigate the Municipal Board’s decision on the $8,500 side- walk debentures for the village, he had found that the debentures were approved by the Board on October 26, 1951, authorizing Vaughan Township to issue $3,910 and Markham Township $4,590, for this purpose. Trustees had not re- ceived any official word of this de- cision, and for this reason had ask- ed Mr. Ecclestone to look into the matter for them. Trustees W. R- Dean, J. MacNeil and F. Harris were ap- pointed for another year to Thornhill Planning Board by the Thornhill trustees at their meeting on March 25. These appointments were made in order that trustees may work along with Vaughan Township Planning Board in preparing a zoning ‘by-law for Vaughan Township.

There is nothing person- al in regard to Mr. Watson, rather we wish to compliment him upon his initiative to have a factory here. However, the proposal is most upsetting, and this petition was gathered to be presented, with the request that a zoning by-law be taken to council next Monday,” concluded Col. Upjohn.

Mr. Findlay had previously stat- ed that because he had assisted Mr. Watson in legal matters dealing with the real estate transaction, in the recent purchase of the lots at the souh \‘vest part of Keele Street. Mr. Findlay reminded the aud- ience of over 70 persons, that this was a regular business meeting of the trustees. and must be regarded as such. Mr. Carson moved that the petition be adopted for recom- mendation to the Township Coun- cil. "It is only fair that the other party have a counter petition", said Mr. B. McLeod, who did not sup- port Mr. Carson’s motion. Mr. Watson. around whom this controversy centred, had brought an architect's plan of his proposed Potato Chip factory, where the manufacture of Potato Chips will be the only product made in King. There will be no pickle factory, as was rumored. Popcorn. peanuts and other allied food products will still be roasted at the Toronto plant, as at present. The proposâ€" ed branch for King City would inn volve a cost of $100,000. “I think it will be an asset to the village rather than a disgrace”, said Mr. Watson. “I don't have to come to this village.
