Four companies tendered for the contract and there was a general range of $4000 to $6000 difference between the highest and lowest tenders on each por- tion of the work.

The Humber Valley Con- servation Authority has re- quested a resolution from Vaughan Township Council establishing park lands on flooded properties along the river bank. The properties which were recently pur- chased by the Township on behalft of the Provincial Government, were consid- ered only recently in regard to the disposition of the land now that it has been obtained. Council last week passed a motion permitting , the Humber Valley Authority to take over the land for park purposes providing that ap- proval can be obtained from the Department of Planning and Development and also providing t t it will not re- sult in add tional costs to the Township. Plan Park For Flood Area DONCASTER NEWMARKET : The Hoifman Machinery Co. plant here which with its equipment is valued at $500,000 went on the auction block here last week. Since the Hofiman interests have moved to Fergus the plant was purchas- ed by United States interests. NORTH YORK : The Ontario Municipal Board has given ap- proval for $150,000 for the con- struction of a municipal swim- ming pool. SCARBORO : Police will crack down on overnight parking in the municipality. In discussing general financ- ing for the school, the Board was highly critical of the handling of the per lot fee received by municipal councils. “They indi- cated that is was for school and general purposes at first but school boards never see any of it yet are the hardest hit by big developments" commented Mr. Kinee. However Trustee Sayers and Tamblyn felt that it was a question of the municipalities" receiving it with the right hand and paying out with the left.” Mr. Sayers pointed out that a municipality, by applying this money to the general rate, leav- es more of the tax money for school purposes. “It all adds up to the same thing" commented Trustee Robert Endean. Trustee Robert Tamblyn said that if the Board was consider- ing a third school he was con- vinced that an} academic school with adequate options was more successful than a purely voca- tional school which had been given some considenation. Trustee Morley Kinnee sug- gested that in view of the term- ination of the student accommo- dation agreement with Weston, it might be more logical to con- sider the building of a new school at Woodbridge on the pro- posed site for which .negotia- tions are now under way. He pointed out that bringing stud- ents from the west end of Vau- ghan to Thornhill as a stop-gap would cause considerable incon- venience and transportation dif- ficulties. “No doubt the opening of 401 will have some effect on the traffic which now goes up Yonge St. Improvement of the Don In a letter, the Minister says, “when it was decided to recon- struct Yonge St. from 401 to Steeles' Ave., an intensive traffic study of that road was made, and taking into consideration the present traffic and normal growth, the new construction should be.adequate for some years.

Richmond Hill Fire Brig- ade got a false alarm call to Klimitz Pharmacy at High- land Park last Tuesday ev- ening. The call which was relayed from North York, was received on the fire- phone here and the village brigade left for the fire be- fore a second call came in to say that the local brigade was not needed. On arriving at the store, the firemen found no fire and were told that it was a false alarm. No reason for the false call has been discovered.

JIFFY CABS Richmond Hill TU. 4-1731 False Alarm Fire Board OK’s Property Richmend Hill Mr. Dean Told those present that after a meeting with Mark- ham township council, he had been assured of water from North York for the school at Thornhill. The cost of the water- main and engineering fees will be about] $12,000 but about half of this figure will be paid back to the board at a later date when a neighbouring subdivider is permitted to open lots and there- byAconnect up with the mains. Group insurance was discuss- ed and referred to the Personâ€" nel Committee. The Board voted unanimously in favour of a re- quisition system whereby the Board Secretary makes all school purchases. A small petty cash was approved to meet im- mediate needs of the home ec- onomics, art and shop classes. The board agreed that the school organization had now reached the point where bit-purchases by teachers were obsolete. ' tenance staff was instructed to have an engineer inspect a boil- er which the insurance inspector recommended for retubing. The boiler has been in service for the past 30 years. ' The secretary was authorized to secure $275,000 from York County to meet obligations to the contractor for the next three months. Valley crossing of Bathurst St.. together with paving of Bathurst St. froth Sheppard Ave. north will also divert some traffic from Yonge St. The future improve- ment of Bayview Ave. northerly should help. “Before this improvement of Yonge St. was made it was ar~ ranged with North York that during rush hours all parking would be prohibited on Yonge St. If this is done, the improv- ed roadway will efl'iciently car- ry traffic for some time to come." Yonge Street from Highway 401, northerly from the clover- leaf has been widened to six lanes and the paving has been completed. Work is now under way reconstructing the divided four-lane highway between Finch Ave. to a point just north of Steeles’.

Markham Township council last Thursday night discussed the possibility of decreasing the number of non-resident pheas- ant licenses to be ~issued this Fall, council deciding to table a decision until a recommendation is forthcoming from Game War- den Everitt Harper. Councillors also considered setting the opening date for is- suing of licenses as “after Sept- ember 1". They reported a good flock of pheasant this year as compared to other seasons.

At regular inter- vals one of the Bureau’s large staff of experienced circulation auditors comes to our office and makes a thorough audit of our circulation records. He has ac- cess to all of our books and records to obtain the FACTS that tell you what you get for your money when you advertise in this newspaper. WHAT A.B.C. REPORTS TELL YOU. The circula- tion FACTS obtained by the ABC. auditor are con- densed in easy to read A.B.C. reports which tell you: How much circulation we have; where the circula- tion goes; how it was sold and many other FACTS about the audience we provide for your sales messages. Make your adver- tising investments on the basis of this audited information. Ask for a copy of our A.B.C. report. We believe it is just as necessary for us to tell you what you get for your advertising dollars, in terms of known circulation value, as it is for you to do busi- ness with your customers on the basis of recognized standards.

The Bureau is a cooperative and nonprofit association of 3450 publishers, adver- tising agencies and advertisers in the United States and Canada. Organized in 1914, ABC. brought order out of advertising chaos by establishing a definition for paid circulation, rules and standards for measur- ing, auditing and reporting the circulations of news- papers and periodicals. What a fix we’d all be in without those standards of measurement for the goods you buy and sell. Imagine the confusion, waste and doubt in business transac- tions if we didn’t have accepted standards of weights and measuresâ€"known values. 1:")nuu“muumummmnuummu“mummmmum“i\l1nnx\\\\mmuummunnummntuuuIm\mnuu\11u1\llnu1mnmunmmuummug ‘Thornhill & District Horticultural Soc. i E a’uumunuuum\\mmumlmummnumum“t\lmmnul1mmmmmuuumnummnmunuuulI\\\\lmlnumuuuumuummumman Thomhill.
