It is said that "practice makes perfect", so perhaps it is a bless- ing in disguise that the residents of Richmond Hill have so much walking to do. Whatever the reason, two Richmond Hill resi- dents carried ofl’ honors in a graceful walking competition held recently in Toronto. The contest was run by The Women’s League of Health and Beauty for mem- bers from Hamilton, Toronto, East York and Richmond Hill, and the trophy was won by Grace Newland, while Norma Hogarth came second, both ladies are members of the Richmond Hill centre. The League Centre at Richmond Hill was opened last October. and an enthusiastic group has attended classes every Tuesday afternoon at .Vrixon Hall through winter snow, and now, when the temperaturehas soared to the 90‘s, they still come to exercise with enthusiasm.

A modern, mobile display, the electronic age version of Sir Ad- am Beck’s travelling “circus”, will be exhibited at Richmond Hill on Thursday, June 25. The large Ontario Hydro demonstra- tion coach will be on display at Richmond Heights Plaza, at the southwest corner of Loblaws par- king lot, and will be open to the public for free inspection from 1 to 9 pm. Hydro's Mobile Display Coming To Richmond Hill On June 25th The custom-built trailer, de- signed by Ontario Hydro with 4,000 cubic feet of space for dis- plays is a descendant of the two horse-drawn caravans originated in 1912 by Sir Adam Beck, hydro’s WVCVarthy Ensor entertained two young friends at her birthday dinner last Tuesday. Birthday greetings to Evelyn Mundy. Eddie Rutter and John Anderson, celebrating on June 16, Russell Smith June 19, Walter Mr. and Mrs. George Topper spent a few days last week with their daughter and son-in-law. Mr. andd Mrs. Peter Abram at Midâ€" lan . While today’s version revives memories of that popular first “circus” of nearly 50 years ago it offers interesting contrasts: in- side the modern trailer are re- markable displays which point out the benefits of modern elec- trical living. These displays con- tain design features believed to be unique in Canada. Can Handle 25 At A Time About 15 people can walk com- fortably through the coach at one time, but an estimated 25 more can be accommodated when the left-hand side is lowered in sec- tions to form a platform and the telescoping roof slides out to become a canopy over it. Displays are ~rearranged easily, and the hydro-designed panel sys- tem allows them to be shown on the platform or concealed for special events. Miss Susan Reid spent the week-end with Mary Jane Terry at the Terry cottage at Port Bol- ster. first Chairman. Known across ru- ral Ontario as “Beck’s circus”, the covered Wagons played a ma- jor role in showing farmers the advantages of electricity. Wired for 100 ampere service, the coach carries 200 feet of cab- le to tie into the nearest service outlet when a demonstration is planned. All equipment is ground- ed independently of the electrical system. Much Equipment Displayed Standard electrical equipment on display includes a water heat~ er, motors. fly killer, farm ventil- ation fan, wall refrigerator. wash- erdryer, oven and rotisserie, built-in food centre (two elements, blender, food-chopper, knife- sharpener, mixer and juicer), and smaller appliances such as irons and kettles. The small daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Burnett was christ- ened Janice Elizabeth last Sun- day morning at Richmond Hill United ‘Church. The coach displays wall panel for radiant and convection heat- ing, and four types of fighting: a plastic louvered ceiling in the kitchen area to diffuse fluorescent light at high intensity without glare, common fluorescent tubes, strip lighting around the coach interior, and recessed incandes- cent lighting in the roof section for high illumination of the platâ€" form. Rural telephone lines were ‘out’ o ‘ and on during last weekend due to trees shedding their limbs in the north west wind; as the branches fell across the wires, 'phones went out of order. Mr. L. J. Roy, Area Manager of the Ontario Hydro said the trees are trimmed as adequately as our customers will permit, but it is not enough to prevent branches falling across the lines. He im- plied that if trees could be prun- ed more extensively this type of damage would not result. Deepest sympathy is extended to ‘he family of the late Forrest f ell who passed away suddenly at the home of his son last Tues- day morning. Mr. Snell for many years owned the property now oc- cupied by the Terry family. Among those entertaining for Miss Helen White prior to her marriage were Mrs. Harry Good- ing who held a linen shower, Mrs. W. Richards, a miscellaneous shower at which thirty-eight guests were present and Mrs. W. Carlisle. Richvale, who also held a shower. Miss Darlene Richards was a very disappointed little girl last Saturday when. instead of acting as flower girl at the marriage of her cousin, Helen White to Jim Downing. Darlene was confined to bed with measles. High Wind Storm Causes Damage Photos and charts can be mov- ed along with all the other dis- plays through an ingenious sys- tem “of fastening devices and channelling in the walls. Another type of fastener in the floor perm mits all portable loose material to be held down securely when the coach is travelling between demonstrations. Catherine Joanne. infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Carson Whelan, was christened Sunday morning at Richmond Hill United Church. At a family party later in the day the Whelan’s enter- tained grandparents Mrs. Jackson and Mr. and Mrs. B. Whelan of Toronto and Miss Nan Shipton of Niagara Falls, N.Y. Local Hydro Superintendent V.
