All members of council were in favour of the move with the exception of Councillor Wesley Middleton who felt “ e have enough land to deal wit now." Vaughan Building Over Two Million In First Six Months Vaughan Township building has topped the $2 million mark for the first half of 1955. accord- ing to township Building Inspec- tor Thomas Gillings. In his re- port, the Building Inspector said there were 254 permits is- sued for building valued at; $2.â€" 266.000. which includes 156 houses. This figure is a 15 per cent increase over the same per- .iod last year. The building report for June reveals that 72 permits have been issued for building valued at $508,000. The big factor in June's report is the issuance of a permit for a new four-room school at Kleinburg.

At the time, she was branch manager of a chain store in West Germany. New Application May Be Needed ' Suggests Discrimination In Request For Closing Hours “There appears to be discrim- ination against a new druggist coming to the village," Donald G. Plaxton, solicitor for G. C. Mainprize of Islington, told Richmond Hill council Monday night in speaking on behalf of his client. During the war, Karl was a civilian internee in Sumatra and Mr. Plaxton, with J. W. Mur- ray, who will be store manager, appeared before council to proâ€" test the request of the other two druggists, Alex Clarke and Hugh Wight, for regulated clos- ing hours for drug stores in the village.

At a special meeting of the Richmond Hill Public School Board to be held next Monday two important items of business will be considered. The members will interview the six appli- cants for the position of caretaker in one of the Board's schools. It is expect- ed an appointment will be made following the inter- views. ' Discussion will also take place with Mr. Gordon Mort- son, Victoria Square, re- garding the Board’s trans- portation requirements for the coming school year. Any transportation will be sup- plied on a reduced scale to cover only the southern part of the school area. The sum of $7,500 has been set aside in this year's budget for transportation.

Approximately 500 regis- tered this week, said Mrs. Pollard, and it is thought the extreme heat and holidays kept many from attending. No lineups were ehdenced this year as in the past.

It is the hope of Mr. Mainprize to open his new store in the Medical Centre on North Yonge within the next week or ten days. “It is not a good idea,” contin- ued Mr. Plaxton for competing business men to go to council with their problems," but Mr, Mainprize met with the other two druggists and no agreement was forthcoming." Council agreed with Mr. Flax.- ton’s point that the matter of store hours should be arranged among the druggists themselves, but pointed out that according to law, it was required the clos- ing by-law, as requested by the two druggists should be passed since a majority of the druggists in the village at that time made the request. Mir. Plaxton suggested that a new application may have to be made by Mr. Clarke and Mr. Wight since not more than one month may elapse, from the date of application, before the by-law must be passed by council to make it effective. If this were the case, a new application would have to be forthcoming. Councillors will refef‘ the mat- ter to their solicitor, J. D. Lucas, for further consideration. The main variance, in the reâ€" quest for closing hours, is on Sunday when Mr. Mainprize wants to remain open from 12 noon until 6 pm. and Mr, Clarke and Mr. Wight until 12 noon only. Vaughan Plans Prosecute Under Garbage By I aw Vaughan Township Councli has instructed the police depart- ment to proceed with charges against Inflammable Disposals Limited who are reported to have contravened the dumping and burning by-laws. The firm which hauls inflammable refuse into the township has been warned on numerous occasions not to burn large quantities of combustible material. Recently a township bylaw was passed prohibiting wide scale burning of garbage and hauling of in. flammable refuse into the town- ship. The Inflammable Dispos- als. however, have continued to set large fires in the dump on their farm in spite of new town- ship regulations. Council for some time has been concerned over the growing troubles with salvage dealers in the township and at the recent meeting, it was decided that police would be instructed to clamp-down on such bylaw infractions. A bylaw has now been passed to preyent the dumping of sew- fifibfo be lagerquist Police Report Over 20 Week-End Occurrences Richmond Hill police had an active week-end with well over 20 occurrences reported wighin QVfiQé‘aay pefioéfbetween July 15-19. Chief Constable Robbins reported on the major occurren- ces. Most tragic of the cases was the accidental death of Margar- et Louise Hamilton, age five months, who died July 16, as a result of aspiration. She is the daughter of Mr. ahd Mrs. Claude Hamilton. 404 Rockport Crescent, in Richmond Acres subdivision. The Rafi} was taken to the of- fice of Dr W. C. Cowan and was pronounced dead after examin- ation. The funeral service was held July 18 from Wright and Taylor Funeral Chapel with interment in Richmond Hill Cemetery. On July 16 a three-car acci- dent at Yonge and Vaughan Rd.. resulted in total damage to the vehicles of $500, and the minor injuring of one paSSenger. During the heavy downpour last Saturday, the southbound car driven by William D. Young of Toronto, failed to see two cars parked on Yonge and ramâ€" med into the back of the car 'owned by Edmund G. Gunton of Elgin Mills. Chain reaction re- sulted and Gunton’s own car bounded into the back of the other parked car, owned by Wynne G. Marshall of Willow- dale. The corner of Yonge and Rich- mond saw two accidents which involved local persons. On July 15, two trucks, driven by James Redhead, R. R. 1 Richmond Hill, and Michael Petro of Bradford were in collision when Petro’s truck rammed the rear end of the vehicle driven by Redhead. Approximately $100.00 damage resulted to Redhead's truck, owned by Summit Farms, and $500. damage to Petro's. Vaughan Twp. Asks $800. To Relay Woodbridge Fire Calls “It's $800 or nothing, “said Deputy-Reeve Albert Rutherford at Vaughan Township Council meeting last Monday afternoon, referring to an offer of $600 per year from Woodbridge Council in lieu of having all fire calls relayed through the police radio system. “Considering the cost for Woodbridge to set up a system of its own for fire calls, the service is well worth $800”, 1continued the deputy. Via Police Radio The proposal was made at the suggestion of the Woodbridge and Robinson Cotton Mills bri- gades. At present there are three brigades serving the Woodbridge district and when a fire call is placed, the choice of brigade is usually left to the telephone operator who is not generally familiar with the bri- gade areas. It is felt by all con- cerned that if the calls were all received by the Vaughan police force via Maple and Woodbridge telephone lines, they could be relayed to the proper brigade through the present radio sys- tem.

THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, July 21, 1955 Watch next weeks’ “Liberal” for further details ANNOUNCEMENT , C. Mainprize modern Drug Store will open in Richmond Hill at 48 Yonge Street North (adjacent to the new Medical Centre) Steeles Avenue Bridge To Be Re-opened To Traffic Work is to proceed immediate- ly on the erecting of a Bailey Bridge to replace the one des- troyed last fall by Hurricane Hazel located on Steeles Ave. E. between Leslie and Bayview Aves. The bridge which is on the Markham-North York townlime has been the subject of a con- troversy for a long time. Mark- ham has contended that this road should fall under the juris- diction of the Metropolitan coun- cil. Efforts to have the Province designate it as a Metropolitan Road have so far met with fail- ure. At Monday’s meeting of Mark- ham Council Highways Engineer E. F. Marsden. representing the Department of Highways stated the department is willing to er- ect, at no cost to the municipal- ities, a Bailey Bridge over the site which will .permit the free flow of traffic until such time as a permanent structure is com- pleted. The Bailey bridge will be 120 feet in length and will take two lanes of traffic. The municipality will have to prov- ide the planking. levelling the approaches, and the guard rails. This work will be liable for the usual Provincial subsidy of 80% ‘on all bridge work. At the same time Markham will instruct its consulting en- gineer H. Babcock to prepare specifications and estimates pre- paratory to calling tenders for the erection of a permanent new structure. Markham and North York will be jointly liable for 20% of the cost with the balance being borne by the province. Markham plans to raise its share by the issuance of deben- tures. on or about July 28 IKE-CONDITIONED FARM EQUIPMENT 1 USED MASSEY-HARRIS BINDER, 7’ 1 IHC BINDER, 8 ft., power take-off 1 8 FT.

Lucas attended Mon- day’s meeting to discuss the need for additional legal work to meet the anticipated increase in subdivision agreements. The Planning Board recently recom- mended that Council consider engaging extra legal counsel in order to handle the greatly in- creased number of subdivision agreements. Mr. Lucas stated he is in a position to take on the extra work and promised to streamline his activities to make provision for any additional Planning Board work. He could think of no public corporation which employs separate solici- tors for different phases of its work. As a means of speeding up matters Council will instruct the police and buildingbdepart- ments wherever possible to have the Crown handle all minor prosecutions. Mr. Lucas will confer with Finance Committee Chairman D. Deacon regarding a readjustment in his annual re- tainer fee to provide for the ad- ditional work.
