Village Parks CommitteeTo Discuss Plans The Parks Development Com- mittee of the Village of Rich- mond Hill has met recently with the Field Representative of the Don Valley Conservation Auth- ority. and reports now that the committee is ready to meet with representatives of the local groups participating in the pro- ject to discuss a concrete plan for the preservation and devel- opment of park land in the vill- age. Those Richmond Hill service clubs and organizations appoint- ing members to the committee are: the Women‘s Institute, Chamber of Commerce. Lions Club, Rotary Club, Richmond Hill and District Kinsmen Club, Horticultural Society. Richmond Hill Naturalists, Junior Chamber of Commerce, the Retail Merch- ants Association and the Rich- nixond Acres Ratepayers Associa- ton. The characters in this enter- taining comedy might be describ- ed as “political comics". Certain- ly they all have a finger in the political pie. HoWever, just as “too many cooks spoil the broth”. so too many election-minded people in one castle can upset the peace and harmony of an otherwise happy household. Pan- demonium breaks loose. and be fore the play is over most of the inhabitants of Lister Castle have done so much political juggling that the only person who seems to have retained his reason is eccentric, old Lord Lister, who sees everything through the eyes 01 his own personal comfort. He would gladly vote Communist if it meant that his bath water would be hot! AURORA : John P. Crysdale, well-known resident of the town. died of a heart attack while driv- ing his car in the willage last week. Evidently aware of the fact that he had suffered the at- tack. Mr. Crysdale's ldst act was to pull on the emergency brake of the car. "Political Comics" Highlight In Play While a knowledge of the poi- itical background of the play is not essential for the enjoyment of it. a word about the situation in England in 1945 would not be amiss. This was the time when “Old Winston" and his Coalition Party were driven from power by Clement Attlee and- the La- bour Party. Who was respons- ible? It was impossible to find anyone who had voted Labour! Life in England was as topsy- turvy as life in the play. In the upheaval at Lister Castle “The Chiltern Hundreds” play an im- portant part. What this is you will discover when you see the comedy of the same name at the Lions'Hall, November 25 and 26. NORTH YORK : A group of young boys won the first round in their fight for playing space last week. Parks committee chairman Maurice Hook said the matter would be brought before council this week. NEWMARKET : So far the Pool Campaign has raised $10,000. Mayér â€"- D. J. Murray, Mrs. Jean Moffat, Dr. Crawford Rose, Dr. Elmer Henderson. The youngsters between the ages of 8 and 12, circulated a pe- tition asking that the playing ban in a small park be lifted. The park. between Manor Ha- ven Road and Prince Charles Drlve, now displays a sign pro- hibiting ball playing and threat- ening offenders with a $300 fine.

YORK MILLS : It has been an- nounced that Yonge St. from north of the city limits to High- way 401 will be closed to traffic for two weeks beginning Novem- ber 23. a The closing is required to per- mit shifting of the Don river to its new- bed under the newly- built Hogg’s Hollow bridge.

The Bethe'sda and Stoufi'ville Telephone Co. became the object of considerable criticism last Thursday, when the members of the Whltchurch Township Coun- cil discussed telephone service in the township. “It's the worst telephone system there is," Coun- cillor'Cllff. Wallwork declared; The comments arose when a routine letter was received from the Bell Telephone an-- nouncing that the Aurora phone rate to the Vandorf office would be increased by 450 per \month because of the mileage‘tarlfl. Questioned about the use made of the Aurora line, the clerk stated that he was often forced to call Stouff'ville numbers through the Aurora exchange when he was unable to get through on the regular lines. Reply in writing stating qualifications, experience, name and address of last in- spector to Some members expressed the opinion that the equipment of the Stoufiville‘exchange was at fault, while others felt that the operators were either working too long hours or were under‘too much pressure. The matter was closed when the following resolution was passed, with all members in fa- vour: “Resolved that the clerk be, and is, hereby instructed to contact the Bethesda & Stout?- ville Telephone Company, stress- ing emphatically the poor ser- vice received at the township of- fice, Vandorf, over this line and the Stoufiville exchange."

It consists 'of a two pound, two ounce lemon, specially grown in a green- house in Richmond Hill. The lemon was grown by Mr. Jack Robertson, a retired Scotsman, who worked at the greenhouse for many years. Some time ago. he sent away to California for a slip from one of their lemon trees. When it arrived, he nursed it and tended it until it grew to its present height of six feet. The tree is kept at a height of six feet and its limbs are tied up prior to its producing time. The tree starts producing lemons in May and continues to pro- duce them right through to November. It produces some 150 normal size lemons and about a dozen lemons of the giant variety. These range in size all the way up to two and a half pounds in weight. Roofing, Eavestroughlng Chimney Brick & Cement Work. Caulking. Painting, Drain. General Repair: of all kind: â€"' HOME REPAIR J.
