The assessment this year has jumped to $6,- 673,110. in comparison to last year’s figure of $5,854.200. The increase in mill rate is largely due to the two new fire trucks which have just been delivered. The complete reshufiling of the assessment department and an experi- mental hard topping on some roads have also contributed to the increase. Jack Stephenson, an ener- getic young resident of Button- ville has completed plans for the grand opening of his new White Rose Service Station located at the corner of No. 7 highway and Don Mills Rd.

The project fell short of its mark and the money gathered Was used for research. By 1937, the Canadian" Medical Assn. had real- ized the time element in cancer treatment and in 1938,.the Society received its charter to carry out lay education on cancer. Dormant during the war years, the Society again took up the fight in ’46 and established the present system of provincial groups broken down into local units. Mr. Grimes stressed the fact that the tremen- dous strength in the whole organ- ization lies in the fact that it is a volunteer effort. He added that of every dollar collected, 50c of it is used for research purposes. In conclusion, Mr. Grimes point- ed out that the main purpose in his talks to the local organizations is to gain support for a Cancer Unit here in the village and he express- ed\ the hope that the Lions Club might consider arranging a public meeting for the discussion of the matter of a Richmond Hill Unit.

Man burns his meadow to ~kill weeds in the grass, and in so doing kills all the organic life and destroys his good top soil. Science tells us that top soil contains tremendous quanti- ties of animal life much of which we see when we turn over a spadeful of soil, as cen- tipedes, millipedes, ants, mites and worms. In addition it con- tains amounts of microscopic life. These millions of bur- rowing creatures literally plough the soil, loosening it, letting in air and water, mak- ing it easy for tiny roots to push their way down. Burn- ing destroys this animal life 33d leaves soil hard and pack- e . It is estimated that if the soil brought up by earthworms were spread out evenly on the surface of the ground it would amount to two inches in ten years â€" two inches of fine loose cultivated soil! It is also estimated that the three or four inches of top soil destroyed by burning contains an average of 50 pounds of nitrogen per acre. This very valuable nitrogen is released as gas and is lost to the soil. Burning to destroy weeds actually stimulates weed growth. increases water run- off and speeds up soil eros- ion.

Resoiuten Expresses Confidence In Its Planning Board By a majority decision Markham township Council on Monday went on record as having full confidence in its five man Planning Board. The following resolution moved and seconded by Councillors C. Hooper and A. Lennie, “that this Council expresses confidence in the integrity and sincerity of the Township Planning Board and that their quarterly report be adopted”, received the support of Reeve W. Timbers, and Councillors Hooper, Lennie, and W. Clark, while Deputy- Reeve A. LeMasurier was opposed. To a large extent this resoluâ€" tion was the upshot of recent pub- lic criticisms levelled at the Board by one of its former members, Mr. R. Shorten. Mr. Shorten who ser- ved on the Board last year while then a resident of Markham town- ship has been critical of the lack of industrial development in the township, and the proper organi- zation of Planning Board work. To Complete Zoning Plan Chairman D. Tanner accompan- ied by members D. Rumney and A. Stagg presented the Board's quarterly report to Council. The highlight of the report was the im- portant statement that the Board will complee an interim zoning plan this year. Report Tabled In his three page report, Mr. Tanner stated that the Board has held twelve regular meetings so far this year and that time and consideration has been given to 30 requests for new sub-divisions. Re- ferring to the time spent on real estate matters Mr. Tanner stated, “The Board would like to state that the control and development of residential areas with accompany- ing roads, schools, sewage, and water is of great importance to the overall planning picture". “Their requests for division of land, de- velopment of roads, and restricâ€" tions on land use, are of utmost importance to these people.” Industrial Development Turning to industrial developâ€" ment the report recordedxthat the Beard has given hours of thought Three Local Residents Severely Injured In Brampton Accident Three well-known local residents were seriously injured in a. motor accident near Brampton on Tuesday night about 6 p.m. Mr. and Mrs. James Stephenson of Arnold Street, Richmond Hill and their nephew, Edwin Stephenson, also of Richmond Hill, received severe injuries when the car in which they were travelling was side-swiped by a bus.

Rose, Township clerk, was appointed to add the duties of Tax Collector for King Township to his office. when the former tax collector, Charles H. Ross, asked to be retired at the regular meeting of the Township Council, on Monday. From now on the tax bills will be mailed from Nob< leton. Mr. Ross was appoint- ed tax collector for the town- ship in 1931 after having col. lected the taxes for the south- ern part of Kingr for six years. Before 1935 the tax bills were delivered to the taxpayers per- sonally. After that date, the bills were forwarded by mail, and only one collector was needed, where two had been employed previously. Last March. 1952, Mr. Ross retired as Relief Officer for King. He will remain as Building Inspector and issuer of per- mits for the Township. and disctisrion to the development of industry, 'eci‘eational areas. roads, and sewage disposal and other essential services.

In reminding the Board that any- one holding public ofi‘ice must be open to censure Reeve W. Timbers stated, “I personally have been well satisfied with the Board’s accom- plishments.” ‘Councillor Lennie â€"- “I feel there has been a lack of appreciation of the Board’s efforts. I suggest that Council and the Planning Board hold more joint meetings together.” Councillor C. Hooper â€" “I was opposed from the first in permitting Mr. LeMasâ€" urier to read Mr. Shorten’s letter to Council; for all it did was to give the newspapers an opportunâ€" ity to disgrace our Planning Board.” “Furthermore Mr. Shorten is no longer a resident of this township and therefore is in no pesition to voice any objections”.

Vaughan Twp. Hires 2 Special Constables - Brings Force To 7 Vaughan Township Council decided at their regular Monday meeting to hire two part-time special constables to assist the regular township force. With the large amount of special policing required at the Drive-In Theatre and the Pinecrest Speedway, it was the opinion of Council that it was necessary to have some additional help on a part-time basis in order that there would be sufficient police protection for the township in more urgent cases. Two applicants, James West, 33, of Mill Road and Jack McEwen. 41, of Langstafl’, were interviewed by Council and on the conclusion of a satisfactory agreement, were hired. They will commence du- ties almost immediately. Refuses Subdivision The special constables will re- ceive $$6 per night for services from 7:30 until midnight and in addition will receive uniforms etc. from the township. Now that the theatre is open they will each work three nights per week and when the race track commences opera- tion, they will work four nights a week. Chief Constable Bone pointed out to Council that these men would become authorised pol- icemen. it would be possible to call them in emergencies, With the hiring of these two men the police force will number seven; four full time ofiicers and three partâ€"time. This arrangement will ensure three men on call dur ing the entire summer. Council received notice from the Attorney General’s Office granting approv- al of division of the township into police areas. Carrville School The Clerk James McDonald read a letter to Council from the Cart- ville School Trustees stating that the Trustees wished the Council to send representation to their public meeting regarding the er- ection of a portable school unit. “It's not our place to go to the meeting", said Councillor Perry, “If they wish to discuss matters with us, they should come to our regular meeting.” “It appears that they are not willing to take either the word of Council or of the School Area Board that there will be accom- modation provided", commented Reeve Marshall McMurchy. “What else cah we do if they won’t take our word in good faith,” questioned Deputy-reeve Albert Rutherford. "I can't see that they will get any support from the farmers or the subdividers on the question, particularly when other accommo elation has been promised,” com- mented the Reeve. The Clerk was instructed to in- form the trustees that there would be no representation from Council, however, Council would discuss the matter with a delegation at a reg- ular meeting. Weed Inspector County Weed Inspector, Frank Marritt, met with Council to dis- cuss eradication of Buckthorn and Barberry in the southern end of the township.

Klein Elder Ratepayers Mr. Robarts and Mr. Thompson, representing the Klein-Elder Ratee payers. met with Council regard- ing Mr. G. Maynard living in a cabin trailer in the area. The rep« resentatives cited a by-law which restricts residence to two months in a trailer providing the trailer stands on the owner's property. The delegation claimed ample evidence that Mr. Maynard lived in the trailer and claimed knowe ledge of cooking, laundry. etc., be- ing carried on in the trailer. Couno cillor Perry asked, “Why did you not complain earlier. we undet< stand according to you that he live ed in the trailer when it stood be- hind a restaurant owned by him?" “We could not see what was going on behind a building across the street", replied Mr. Robarts. "Jud- ing by your intimate knowledge of Maynard's present activities. you seem to have an excellent policing system," retorted Councillor Per- During the discussion, Mr. Mayt nard came before Councll to me“ sent his own position, pointing out that it was necessary to use the trailer in order to supervise his park on week-ends. In reply to Mr. Robarts and Mr. Thompson, he reminded them that many of the ratepayers who were complaining about hlm were living in tar-paper shacks, converted garages, etc., also very much in contraventlon of by-laws. Regarding a proposed byulaw permitting various types of com- mercial interests to be located on Mr. Maynard's property, the Rate- payers Assn. insisted on plans of proposed buildings, before they would agree to the by-law. Con- sidering that this property is not restricted, the Deputy Reeve asked, “What business is it of yours what he does with his own land?" Coun- cillor Perry continued, “Does he demand plans of any proposals on any of your properties? You have no right to make all these de- mands.” Mr. Maynard stated that he couldn't give plans on land for which he had no definite plans. Council agreed to investigate the complaint to determine wha action would be taken. - Subdivision Mr. Coulter. a building contrac- tor. appeared to hear Council's de- cision on granting permission for a subdivision at Concord.
