Broken down this would be 32,000 feet of 6" main at $6.00 per foot $192,000.00; 11,750 feet of 12" If the Spring Valley develop- ment is passed $200,000 will be paid the Township immediately and will be used to install water mains down Yonge Street to the subdivision. The Work will be supervised and contracted for by the township. These mains would bring water to Thornhill. Reeve John Perry informed the delegation O.M.B. approval was being held up by the decis- ion on whether or not to allow a sewage disposal plant for the subdivision. Metro has indicated it disapproves of theplant as it could be a source of stream poll- ution. Deputy-reeve R. Kirk stated he called Metro’s attention to the fact Toronto had to have sewage disposal plants before it was in a position to afford trunk sex’vers. Reeve Perry said he was “optimistic” the development will secure approval. However, if it didn‘t, other means would be have to be forthcoming to as- sure Thornhill of water. Men- tioned were other subdivisions or an agreement with Markham to use their facilities. Immediate Payment Sixteen Thornhill residents in the Vaughan Township Water Area indicated to Vaughan Township Council Mon- day night they were willing to wait a period of months to see whether the Ontario Municipal Board gives the “go ahead” to the Spring Valley Subdivision near Thornhill, before pressing for water, because of the costs involved though they vieWed the need for water as urgent due to deterioration of the well water supply.

De- puty-reeve Plaxton moved the let- ter be turned over to the Beverley Acres ratepayers, since they com- prise-the mothers and fathers of the children concerned. Councillor Haggart said, “We have no means of controlling bi- cycles. Neither council nor our police department can hope to stop this condition â€" it is up to the mothers and fathers of the children. The onus is on the par- ents to see that the children are well versed in the safety rules â€" before riding bicycles. We do all we can to ' rotect children â€"- and adults â€" from careless drivers, but what about careless parents Tonight, Thursday, members of Richmond Hill Public School Board will meet with the local police committee and representa- tives of the five home and school associations to discuss safety measures which could be started at dangerous points along the routes to schools. The setting up of a safety patrol among the school children will also be gone The new president, Mr. A. E.' Plewman of the Richmond Hill Senior Citizens’ Club will preside at the next regular meeting, which will have an entertainment program and will be held Wed- nesday. October 15, at 2 pm. in the Lions Hall. He is most anxious that all who are in any way interested in membership in the organization turn out for this meeting as fall activities will be commencing. October Meeting Sr. Citizens Club Trustees And Police Committee To Discuss ,Safety. Measures The councillor appeals to all parents to put a stop to this dangerous game before it is too late. He says that it is impossible for motorists to see these children who dart out so quickly from behind parked cars. “Someone is go- ing to be killedJ’ Councillor Haggart maintains. and drivâ€" ers of motor vehicles in the vicinity are becoming nervous wrecks. “It is up to the parents to put a stop to this non- sense at once”, the councillor affirmed. are playing tag in a “GAME OF LIFE _ 0R D‘EAUTH." Councillor J. Haggart, incensed at what he terms “lack of parental discipline,” last Monday night told “The Liberal” that children riding bicycles between parked cars in the parking lot of the Beverley Acres Shopping Plaza The annual set revenue on the basis of 300 connections. would be the monthly rate of $3.00 or $10,800.00, and the frontage as- sessment of $12,087.00 or 80.580 feet times 15 cents per- foot. The At an annual cost of 534.873.82 for twenty years at 6% interest. Clerk J. McDonald stated there would have to be a revision of rates over the whole water area to take care of the repayment of the capital expenditure if it was proceeded with without the pro- posed subdivision, and he did not feel this would meet the approval of the OMB. or the other resid- ents of the area.

Play Tag Game Life â€" Or Death N0 BINGO who let their children play in the middle of the road? The discussion will be held at the request of town council after McConaghy Home and School As- sociation had written asking coun- cil to erect more signs at dan- gerous points. Council pointed out the matter was on: for the schcol board's attention and at Monday night’s joint meeting suggested a meeting of) the board with the police committee, so that a thorâ€" ough study could be made of points considered dangerous from the standpoint of safety. The board decided to invite the home and school associations to participate in the discussion at their next regular meeting which is tonight at 7:30 pm. in the board room on the second floor of McConaghy School. ~' Scott Addition Estimate He then related how a motor- ist driving through one of the new subdivisions had had to stop his car, pick up a child playing in the middle of the road with a sand pail and remove him to safe- ty off the road, before the motor- ist could proceed on his way. “Surely parents should be made to accept the responsibility of children to avoid this sort of thing", Councillor Haggart con- cluded. Deputy-reeve Plaxton said the bicycle problem is peculiar to densely populated districts. “1 think the ratepayers are the ones who should investigate these mat- ters.” Councillor Tinker, second- ed by Councillor Bradstock moved that the? ratepayers of Beverley Acres be forwarded the letter in question. into Last Thursday evening at a specially called session, the board heard estimates of the cost of the addition to Walter Scott PublicSchool from the architects, Allward and Goinlock. total annual revenue would be $22,887.00. Thus the annual de- ficit. without! the subdivision would approximately be $12.000. The mains as planned would serve approximately 532 individ- ual lots of which approximately 450 are presently built o'n. It is assumed 300 connections will be made as part of the initial' con~ struction. Petition Needed Though today’s building mar- ket is somewhat difficult to pin- point, the estimate arrived at is $200,000.00 for seven standard classrooms, one kindergarten, a 40’ x 80’ multi-purpose room, ad- ditional heating. plumbing and wiring services, “storage space, boiler room space, 6 per cent ar- chitects’ fees. and all furnishings for the rooms. This works out to a cost of approximately $12. per square foot. W01 Council will now be asked to seek tentative approval from the Ontario Municipal Board to de- benture this amount. Vandalism Still The portables at Beverley Ac- res School have again been exten- sively damaged by vandals. The fittings on pipe leading from the fuel tank to the space heater were taken off, windows and lights were broken, and there were ev- idences of an attempt to start a fire under the fuel tank. The board passed a motion re- questing the caretaker in event of vandalism to immediately in- form a member of the board as well as the local police in order that the local authorities can be informed of such destruction of school property.

HAVE CASH BUYERS Assistant Clerk Mac Clem- ent read a letter of thanks from Dr. Colacutt of the De- partment of Agriculture. re- garding the recent antiâ€"rab- ies clinic held in Richmond Hill at the fire hall. Dr. Cola- cutt said, “The clinic held in Richmond Hill was the larg- est clinic in York County." which caused Councillor J. Paterson to comment, “I have always maintained we have the largest dog population in Ontario. This calls for a dog catcher.” Mayor Tomlin instructed the clerk to forward the let- ter from the department as well as a letter of thanks from council, to the Rich- mond Hill Women’s Insti- tute which assisted so ad- mirably at the anti-rabies clinic. ‘ Largest Clinic In York County Merry Xmas Box 21 CARDS gei'ssfii 69c Greetings Box 15 CARDS gefi'flie 490 Tall Velours Box 16 CARDS 35‘5‘2‘1’2 59c TU. 4.3551 Open 61/ (It R.
