Local Dachshunds Win Many Awards With 1,900 entries in the can- ine section of the National Sport- men's Show held at the Coloseum from March 20-23. "it was voted an all-round success. Three first prize ribbons and cups came to Richmond Hill. These honors were won by the three Long- Haired Dachshunds, entered by their breeders, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Von Meerheimb. The judging of this breed was by three independent judges from the US. and Canada. While the public is probably more fam- iliar with the Smooth Haired Dachshunds â€" the Long Haired breed has "been used for badger and fox hunting in Germany since 1780, and was introduced into England and the United States in 1860. Though the dogs of the Greyhound breed are known to be speedier on the straightaway â€" the Long Haired Dachshunds are faster in turn- ing and twisting, while their short powerful.legs provide the power for them to reverse out of fox holes at high speed This breed possesses more stamina and courage than its size sug- gests. and also make ’excellent pets for children. and fine watch- dogs, are extremely healthy. as less liable to contract disease than other breeds. and possess the same self-cleaning habits of the feline family. Prior to settling in Canada. Mr. and Mrs. Von Meerheimb bred this type of Dachshunds in their home province of Mecklen- burg. Germany, and have now arranged to have several pure- bred Dachshunds imported from Germany, by air.

Last year this cost ran to $1,700‘00. Trustee A. Spence asked the board at its meeting last Thursday to consider another insurance company which offer- ed a wider coverage for the same amount. This company, he heard. would include the walk to and from school. He asked the Board to also consider parents‘ partici- pation in the costs to cut down the expenses. Supervising Principal D. Rose pointed out the parents had been informed in September their children were covered by the policy now in force and suggested pointed out the parents had been informed in September their children were covered by the policy now in force and suggested it would be wise to carry on with the insurance until June at least. On motion of Trustee Spence. seconded by Trustee L. Clement, the Finance Committee was em- powered t’o contact another com- pany regarding their insurance coverage, and to investigate the oossibility of parent participa- tion in any school accident in- surance scheme. Investigate New Insurance Plan For Town School. Children Unless another agreement is reached at the next meeting the present policy will be renewed until June,'assuring each public school child in Richmond Hill ac- cident coverage up to $100.00 on the school grounds until June. To Help With Excursions The Board also agreed to pay transportation costs up to $250. for educational trips. primarily for Grade 8. This was moved by Trustee L. Clement. seconded by Trustee J. Rabinowitch. after the Supervising Principal told the Board of planned trips this spring. It is expected expenses for any long distance trips will be borne by the students them- selves. J After a brief discussion the secretary was requested to write the Board's solicitor, Mr. D. R. Steele, to ask if a $5,000 bond on the signer and co-signer of checks would be sufficient. And to inquire whether the Board would be responsible for any money taken in a criminal action over this amount. At the next meeting the Board expects to receive a survey from the town Hydro Electric Coin- missiori on the lighting in the McConaghy School. “There is no blackboard lighting and I be- lieve four to six rooms will need For the gardener.

Duties of Personnel Discussed The Personnel Committee pre- sented a comprehensive list. of duties of the secretary and the supervising principal.

In co-operaiion with the secretary and the maintenance supervisor, the supervising prin- cipal is expected to prepare a preliminary annual budget by February 15 of each year. One of we duties of the secâ€" retary will be to show a day-by- day clear financial pictures of the Board transactions, when so re- quired. When the accounts were brought forward it was a eed on motion of Trustee Mrs. . Sully, seconded by Trustee Mrs. M. Southwell, to pay former secret- ary-treasurer J. Grainger $456.00 for salary for January and Feb- ruary. Mrs. D. Turner will receive an honorarium of $15.00 for her sec- retarial work for the Board in January. Intelligence Tests To Be Given The Otis Group Intelligence Tests, and the Hemon-Nelson Tests w‘illxcbe given selected groups and students this Spring. The Board agreed to the cost which will be $101.22. As pre- viously planned the teaching staff will direct the tests. ‘ Kindergarten reports will be issued this spring. Principal Rose announced. Parents will be given an opportunity for interviews fol- lowing the sending of the reports. Attendance in the public schools for February showed 1750 enrolled. Nine was the net gain. twenty came in and eleven pupils left for other communi- ties. ‘ It is time to get our seeds started indoors. When we do this we win four ways. We can grow the newest and best varieties and those which take our fancy â€"â€" exactly what we want instead of the standard kinds we can buy as plants. We will save money and have our own plants ready to set out as’ soon as soil and wea- ther condition permit. Then there is the added interest of seeing them develop day by day. in our minds and we can use the waiting time to good advantage in many different ways. But here again we must exer- cise patience. Too long a period in the house or in the cold frame makes for weak spindly plants. Estimate 3 time about six weeks before the usual date of the last spring frost in your locality. Very fine seeds may be planted a little earlier. Most annuals can be successfully started indoors, including ageratum. asters. cos- mos, nicotiana, sal’via, petunias, snapdragons marigolds and zin- nias. Of the .vegetables it is most advantageous to start our own tomatoes peppers, brocolli, cabbage and celery. Almost any type of container may be used, but the most con- venient is the fish flat. It holds a goodly number of seedlings and is handy to move about or trans- fer to the cold frame. Flower pots or berry boxes may be used and mason jar lids are just the thing if you want to start only a few seeds and would like to keep the varieties or colours sep- arate. Use good garden soil, screen- ed and mixed with one-quarter part of peatmoss, and a little sand if the soil is heavy. Fill your container almost to the top with this mixture and tamp it down to make the surface firm and level. Water the soil thor- oughly and allow it to stand for an hour or two. Scatter very fine ‘seeds on the surface but make shallow furrows for the larger ones. Then sift fine soil or milled Sphagnum moss over the surface. Cover the seeds lightly, not more than 14. inch deep. then firm the soil very gently with your tam- per. Locate your containers in a warm dark place until the seeds germinate. Cover with glass and a piece of burlap or use a folded newspaper. Leave a small crack for ventilation. Keep the soil molst but do not allow it to be- come soggy. To prevent the seeds washing away place a piece of burlap over the flat and water lightly. When the first sprouts appear â€" the critical stage â€"- re- move the cox er and set the plants in the light. After they produce a second set of leaves, transplant them to plant bands. Most plant bands are treated with fertilizer to pro- mote vigorous and well-balanced growth. When the garden is rea- dy for them, the plants can be set out with no damage to the roots, the efore no setback. e resources of the Horticul- tural Society are always at your service. Address inquiries to Box 709. Richmond Hill. At the Spring Fair on March 30, there will be a special booth where advice may be obtained on all gardening problems.
