Trustee George Giles started the meeting by explain- ing the deletions made at the previous Trustees’ meeting and verifiying the fact that the Lions Club was in full ac- cord with the alterations made in the agreement. He then read the agreement clause by clause so that all could fully appreciate 1t. Lions president Hal Harley stated that the agreement had been discussed on numerous oc- casions at various club meetings and that the club as a whole was in full agreement with it. Trustee Alan Sumner question- ed the statemnt that the Lions Club was in full accord, stating that he had heard of dissenting voices and knew of some Lions that were luke-warrd on it. He pointed out that unless the club was in unanimous accord, the agreement couldn’t be signed. Mr. Harley reiterated his pre- vious statement, saying that the club was in full accord and that they as representatives of the club had come to the meeting with the understanding that the agreement was ready to be sign- e . Objected All Along Trustee Sumner stated that he had objected to the agreement all along and would not sign it. His objection was in not allow- ing the ratepayers to have a voice in what was done with the park in as much as it was their park. He made a verbal motion that he objected to the agree- ment and would not sign it until some formal assent is received from all ratepayers. Mr. Harley answered, say- ing that trustee Summer's objec- tion to the agreement was an in- ternal matter for the Trustees themselves to work out and did not ofiect the Lions Club. Since a majority of the trustees were in favor of the agreement, there was no valid objection to going ahead with it. The sum of $2.00 was given to the trustees by the Lions club and the agrement was signed. Trustees Giles and MacNeil sign- ed for the village and president Hal Harley and secretary Dave Booth signed for the Lions. Wit- nessing the égreement for the Lions Club were Messrs. Jack Bentham, Gordon Davis. Mc- Taggart-Cowan. and C. Spwdon. After the signing of the ag- reement, Trustee Giles clarified Thornhill HorticUitural Society Wins At C.N.E. The baskets were arranged by Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Smith, Mrs. Percy Bone and Mr. Allan Sum- ner. on behalf of the society. In commenting on this splen- did achievement, Mr‘ R. C. Poul- ter, president of the society, said. “Naturally we are extreme- ly pleased and we offer our con- gratulations and thanks to the loyal members who repared and entered the baske s. and- to those who contributed flowers for. them. In the four competitions for baskets entered by horticultural societies in Ontario, Thornhill swept the boards by capturing four first prizes. An enviable record was estab- lished by the Thornhill Horti- cultural Society at the Canadian National Exhibition Flower Show. “The preparation of these ex- hibition baskets requires con- Siderable talent. and also a great amount of time. The winning of these four awards has brought honour to our society." The only member of the soc- iety to enter as an individual was Mrs. L. J. Smith and she won one first, two seconds and two fourth prizes for floral arâ€" rangements. Takes Four First Prizes STOUFFVILLE : For the con- venience of residents ‘in the east end of the town. a large unit containing individual mail boxes has been installed. On Monday night. the Vaughan Twp. Planning Board approved a plan whereby a section of land on Number Seven highway, at Thornhill,‘ a quarter of a mile east of Yonge street would be made into a wild life sanctuary. The land con- tains a small pond, surround. ed by bullrushes and is of- ten a haven for birds and water-fowl who rest there during their periodic migra- tions. Plan Wild-Lif e Preserve the point in regard to whether the trustees had authority to go into an agreement without con- sulting the ratepayers. He stated that the matter had been fully investigated and found to be pos- sible. ' Continuing. Trustee Giles sta- ted that the Lions Club is assum- ing a terrific responsibility and only the future can show wheth- er the agreement was best. A spokesman for the Lions group stated that they were fully aw- are of the responsibility they were shodldering and intended to carry it out to the full letter of the agreement. Lion president Harley added that their intention was to tie in the various people interested in the park into an active organiza- tion to beautify and maintain it. He said that the Lions had no in- tention of acting as a dictatorial group but rather as a coâ€"ordin- ating group in working with oth- ers. Synopsis of Agreement The agreement calls for the payment of the sum of $2.00 by the Lions club to the trustees. The Lions Club also agrees to assume full responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the park and buildings on it. Any al- terations, additions or major changes in the park or buildings must first be approved by the Nillage- trustees. As of January 1, the Club will manage the park, including the swimming pool and may employ the A.R.C. to supervise the re- creational programing. All mon- ies received in the operation of the park will be paid to and conâ€" trolled by the club which will pay to the trustees on Decem- ber 31 of each year $2,500.00 or the net revenue from the swim- ming pool whichever is the less- er.- The trustees in turn will transfer the rent money paid by the Lions Club to the reserve fund previously set up until the fund reaches a balance of $11,- 000. ‘ The fund can be drawn on Next Horticultural Meeting “Flower :Arrangements’ will be the subject of a talk and demâ€" onstration to be given by Mr. Percy Bone before the Thornhill Horticultural Society at their nextvmeeting on Tuesday.
