On that day the ofiic: ial opening of the new two-roomed Temperanceville School, 8.8. NO. 21, King. took place. Approximately 120 persons passed through the at tractive entrance of this modern building to view its in- terior as well as attend the official opening. The school is modern in every detail with its spacious windows, its fluorescent lighting, convenient clothes closet space, green chalkboards, modern desks, stafl’ room and wash rooms. The colour scheme is extremely effective and pleasing in tones of grey, blue, and orange with window drapes of blue. The floors are in tile with the predominating colour in grey with blue and black pattern. - On enterin the building the guests were welcomed by members 0 the Board of Trustees of which Mrs. H.

The village remains a police village of 360 acres, administered by three Commissioners and TGWnship council, rather than being enlarged to about 1,720 acres as an incorporated village, administered by a local five man council. Board members William Greenwood and Robert Roland considered the onus was on the appli- cation to establish advantages and needs for incorporation, and they felt these hadn't been met. After studying the ratio of industrial and commercial assessment to residen- tial assessment, the Board termed the commercial assess- ment as “very small” and added “with the type of deyelop- ment anticipated the ratio would go farther out of line. There is no evidence of any prospect of any industry locat- ing here whatsoever.” 2 Room Cost $32,000 Municipal Board Turns Down King City Incorporation Bid Will Remain As Police Village should be undertaken in order ’0 assess the most advantageous fu- ture boundaries.

Flexible School Program Mr. McLeod‘s speech was en- lightening as well as touched with humour. “Today it is endeavour- ed to have a more flexible pro- gram so that the children may move along more quickly in their work." he said. Thirty children in a classroom is enough to teach the various phases of today. We can be justly proud of our new school which can be added to if necessary. In the minds of the board members is always the thought, “What is best for the boys and girls of this area." and when the plan for a one roomed school backfire'd, the solution of the present two roomed structure proved much better. The main task of the tea her today.

Mr. McLeod spoke of the fine community spirit in Temper- anceville and the co-operative work among teachers and pup ils after which he brought greet- ings from the minister of educa- tion. , Step Forward The guest speaker then asked those attending to stand and take a short step forward.

The board will ask town council to try to find some solu- tion to the problem. Mr. Ross was first appointed a school trustee in April 1954. and was elected for two successive two year terms with impressive support at the polls. A resident of Richmond Hill since he returned from active service in World War II in 1945, Mr. Ross is engaged in the con~ struction business and lives at 130 Centre Street West. The family in addition to Mr. and Mrs. Ross includes two boys, Robert and Ian, and one daughter Rosemary. Chairman of the Richmond Hill Public School Board of Trustees announced this week that he will be a candidate for municipal council at the coming elections.

The public is out buying that night, and we feel that if we remain open. they will have a much greater selec- tion of goods and services”. The association does not an- ticipate remaining open another additional night even if the busi~ ness warrants it. Their idea is not to try to outdo other store- keepers for business, but rather to see that each member of the purchasing public is satisfied with their shopping trips. In an unprecedented move. the Yonge Street Business Men's as- sociation has decided to have its member stores remain open Thursday nights until 9 pm. The first Thursday night the stores will stay open will be November 6.. Norm Cook formerly of the well known firm of Hunt and Cook announces this week the opening of Cook’s B.P. Auto Service.

There are 192 miles of roads in Markham Township." the Deputy-reeve said, “and we have built quite a large number of roads and gravelled quite a few this year. More roads in the township have been “dusted” this year, because of the dry season.” Deputy-reeve Dean said council hopes to have water installations through by December lst, but the strikes and shutdowns in the building industries have held things back. especially the work at the pumphouse.

Reeve Clark has held the envia-l ble record of municipal service through the depressions of the 30’s: the war years. and the years when Markham Township has begun to slowly expand and grow. He has remained true to his pro- mise that taxes will not go up excessively, by supporting the policy of purposely holding back development and seeking indust- rial assessment -to balance resi- dential and school rates through- out the township.

Acclamations are rare in Markham township municipal elections,_ the last one was in 1930, but it is just possible there might be one this year. There have been rumors of some candi- dates but to date none has made a formal declaration. The annual nomination meeting which will/be held at Buttonville is still three weeks away and there is still time for opposition to develop, but at the moment exper- ienced observers report the situation as quiet. _ «ecu flue Single Copy YOUR HOME PAPER 'ALL THE NEWS OF THE DISTRICT Councillor Stanley Watson.
