In memoriam Time 7.30 to 9.30 FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS TU. 4-1116 The Family‘ These River Valley Conserva- tion Authorities were brought into being because of a desire of the people to do something to improve their resources of soil, water, woodland and wildlife within their valley. But while there is sincere appreciation of the need of such work being un- dertaken within their boundries, To date in Ontario there are 15 River Valley Conservation Authorities including the large river basins of the Grand, Thames, Saugeen and Moira and the smaller drainage areas of the Don, Ganaraska, Big Creek and Etobicoke. Improve Resources Conservation through River Valley Authorities is a people’s movement in this Province that was born in 1946 with the passage of the Conservation Authorities Act in that year. Under this act, two or more municipalities whol- 1y or partly within a watershed may petition the Government for the establishment of an Author- ity. A11 municipalities within the area are notified and two-thirds of these must be present to form a quorum. If two-thirds of the delegates present vote in the affirmative, then the Authority is established by Order-in-Coun- oil and all municipalities whether they were represented at this in- itial meeting or not are part of the body corporate. 15 Authorities 15 River Valley Authorities Conserve Ontario’s Resources ..The most awaited news howev- er at the banquet was the an- nouncement of the winners in the competition. This Plowing Corn- petition is unusual in type in that each competitor plows his lands on his home farm and the judge, Mr. George Hostrawser of Bramp- ton, visits the farms and scores the fields individually. As might be anticipated. the entries in the horse section were limited but the highest score 'of the competition went to a horse plowman, Andrew Wat§on of Woodbridge. Andrew had a score of 81% and won the T.

Nearly 100 people were on hand to enjoy the even- ing which was under the very ca- pable chairmanship of Miss Jean- ette Harrison. Following the de- licious meal, the Unionville Jun- ior rarmers’ Association supplied some very fine entertainment in the form of aquartette and trio as well as a very humorous and cur- rently popular skit called "Drag- on Net". Winners Announced In his annual message to the people of St. Mary‘s Anglican Church, Bishop A. R. Beverley of Toronto Diocese remarked- at the Confirmation Service last Thursday: “I would like to con- gratulate your Parish on the pro- perty improvements made this year and especially on your se- lection of a new Church organ which has such excellent tone. It is encouraging to see your Church filled at a mid-week Service and to see such a large Confirmation Class the majority of which being adults." At the close of the Confirma- tion Service, the Bishop dedicat- ed the Coronation Year Church Organ which was given by the freewil‘l offerings of the people. On the side of the organ is mounted a beautiful replica of St. Edward‘s Crown which was designed and fashioned by Mr. Doug Boyd, 3 member of St. Mary's Church and renowned for Organ Dedicated 26 Confirmed At St. Mary’s Church By Bishop Bevenley PreSent Junior Farmers Plowing Awards At Victoria Sq.

It is most important however, that the people of a river valley be first interested in its natural resources problem and form a Conservation Authority as a cor- porate body to deal with the problems which the people them- selves regard as the most urgent. When an Authority has been or- ganized it is then in a position to request assistance both financially and technically in carrying out its program. recreational assets of the www- shed; soil conservation measures; the preservatlon of msme sites and the improvement of game and fish. When the people of a water- shedorganize an Authority there are many projects which it may undertake and these may include flood protection, water conserva- tion mecol'ros such as small dams and ponds, improvement of sum- The River Valley Conservation report is intended to serve as a blueprint by which the Authority can get on with its job.

Consequently, the Conservation Branch of the Department of Planning and Development un- dertakes such work as a service to the Authorities. and by means of surveys and reports they ap- praise the conservation need of each watershed and submit a report to the Authority in which the conservation measures nec- essary to the undertaking are set forth in detail.
