Master of Ceremonies Members of McKillop Home 8; School Association became very Safety conscious at the October 28th meeting. ,Constable Douglas Young intro- duced the theme with a film “The Broken Doll," a story of Com- munity Safety. In this film a Safety Council was formed by in- terested citizens after a. well known resident had been the victim of an accident. It showed how a Safety Council Committee is established, the results of such a committee working with the town police, setting up School Patrols; such as we have at Me- Killop School; how safety is taught to the children through safety games, bicycle»Road-E-.O, learning of road rules; safe driv- ing habits: and water safety hab- its. The film taught that traffic loss can be reduced by the par- ent setting safe habits, for the children to follow twenty-four hours a day. Judges were Deputy-reeve Tin- ker, Mr. Roy Chandler. Manag. er Bank of Nova Scotia and Mr. Fred Wise, Managing Director, Town & Country Marketers of Markham Road, Richmond Hill. The banner and crown, as well as the flowers presented to the Queen and her attendants were kindly donated by the popular local florist Al Rice of Yoqge Street. Contest In Store Those taking part were Police - Constable Douglas Young. Parent- Mrs. Arthur Spence, Medical - Dr. Maserich, Insurance - Councillor Haggart. has this week opened a ladies’ wear store of her own on Allen- court Shopping Centre. Three Judges Following the selection, Reeve Floyd Perkin officiated at the crowning and presented bouquets to the girls. Rices' Flowers Following this inspiring and thought provoking film a Panel Discussion stressed four different points of view, dealing with Safe- ty. ‘ Mrs. Spence in her views brought forth observations as a parent, with regard to Safety Patrol methods. All traffic safe- t; precautions can not be left to the Patrol System and should not more effort be put into obtaining sidewalks, elementary blind inter- sections and making our roads sa- fer. Mrs. Spence concluded that with the ever increasing number of cars and bicycles and hot rods the hazzards are greater. The tea- ching of safety is important. The giant share rests with the par. ents. but safety is a community problem. Therefore our elected representatives, our employees and local press shou}d_help. Mr. Colin Burgess, popular Vice-President of Richmond Hill Junior Chamber of Commerce efficiently performed the duties of MC. throughout proceedings. McKillop Home 8.

To ensure safety the fire department will inspect your premises. To prevent the high in- cidences of car accidents it was stressed upon the members to have their cars in good working condition, to be a reliable driver with a mature and responsible sense of duty to the rules of the road. Constable Douglas‘Young-spoke police department works with the Safety Council Committee in re. gards to a childs safety pro- gramme. They set up the Safety Patrol, organize bicycle Road-E-O. Through the Road-E-O it was learned that children’s skills were good over obstacle course but they had a poor knowledge of the Rules of the Road.

WILLOWDALE â€" The Willow- dale Guide Company celebrated its 29th birthday recently and was made a separate division. Guide Captain Miss Jean _Orr baked a gigantic birthday cake, in the shape of the guide badge, in honour of the occasion. EVEN THE WEATHER CO-OPERATED to make last Sunday’s Old Folks Outing organized by the North Toronto Motorsports Club in collaboration with “The Liberal”, a huge success. For three weeks this newspaper invited entries for the outing which was a gift of the club. On Sunday at 1.30 pm. a long line of cars could be seen lined up on Richmond Heights Plaza from which point the out- ing commenced. All_ Points 70! Compass Tceeded southwest crossing High- But an hour before that the drivers had been going to all points of the compass to collect old folk and invalids participat- ing. These came from Richmond Hill, from Oak Ridges. from Newmarket. from Willowdale and the district generally. The ar- rangements had been carefully planned and each driver knew in advance of Sunday which guest he was going to collect. All the drivers met with their pass- engers safely aboard on the shop- ping plaza hy_l.30 p,m, Supported by members of the club, Ken Mansell the well known racing driver and a part- ner of Shelton-Manse“ Motors of Yonge Street 5.. Richmond Hill, in collaboration with “The Liberal" was responsible for the organization of the outing while his partner Dick Shelton was responsible for the planning of “Do not drive fast, especially on the secondary roads as our guests may be young in heart, but they are not young in body. It is their day and we are mere- by their hosts and chauffeurs, so although we ask you to stay on the route for the sake of the or- ganizers, if your passengers re- quest a slight deviation, possibly through some familiar spot, by all means oblige." Maximum Speed 40 ME“. The drivers faithfully kept to these instructions. At no point along the route was a speed ar- ound 40 miles an hour exceeded. Considering that these drivers’ chief hobby is sport cars and rac- ing, this was an impressive dem- onstration of their sense of res- ponsibility. Also it was a delight to see them giving an arm to their elderly passengers and in other ways making a wonderful .day for their guests. a wonderful pictures-(me rofite Casefuuy _Planned Outing To indicate the care and thought which went into the plan- ning a memorandum was circul- ated to all members and which stated. “Remember, this is not a Rally”. It went on to guide members in behavior, etc., in the words. “We must impress our guests by our courtesy to them and other travellers on the road rather than with our ability to drive." Old Folks Enjoy Pleasant Outing The route selected took the party from Richmond Heights Plaza west from Richmond Hill on the Maple sideroad through Maple and Klelnburg crossing 400 and 27 highways. The party then turned north to Bolton on Highway 50. From Bolton it pro- Ghostsand goblins. fierce pir- ates and highwaymen, polite Chinamen. and charming little old ladies, made their way to S. S. 3. Markham, last Friday after- noon for their annual Hallowe’en frolic and party. It's a little doubtful if many hearty suppers were eaten in Headford that ev- ening, as plans were afoot for another hilarious celebration in the evening at the Sunday School. Here, with the addition of the teachers and officers in costume also, and some pre-schoolers dres- sed up most cunningly, excite- ment ran high as Mr. Cummer Lee’s progdramme of games took place. Ample refreshments of chocolate milk and cookies brought a very busy and mirth- ful day to a close,_ Buttonville Club 15, 4th Home- maker’s Club, met last Thursday evening at the home of Miss Cora Brodie. “Wéé'ther for the “Trick or Treat-ers" on Saturday evening was not so kind; and although CHISTMAS AUCTQN ON RADIO 1310 NOVEMBER CORRESPONDENT: MRS. ll.

The route went on to Caiedon and Mono Mills to pick up Highway 9 to Highway 50 back to Bolton up Highway 11 via Nobleton and King City back to Richmond Hill. The many points of interest al- ong this route made it a thor- oughly enjoyable trip and the scenery with autumn tints every- where in evidence, with carpets of brown leaves decorating the wooded areas charmed the old folk. Points Of Interest Some of the places of interest included the old hitching post at the corner of the main street in Maple, the airport in Maple. the new bridge replacing the narrow cement b’ridge on what is now Highway 49 just west of 27 High- way, the small park and swinging footbridge in Bell Fountain, the railway through the valley at the Forks of the Credit where the exhibition train special derailed many years ago to become one of Ontario's worst train disasters, the old mill at the base of the hill below the Forks of the Credit station and the other in Palgrave just to the right as you cross the bridge, the river and dam in 861- ton. one of Ontario's best trout fishing areas. and King City which was never a city, but won a supreme court order to retain the name. Good Roads For Comfort This route was arranged be- cause of the high degree of in- terest and because the club wish- ed their guests to see as much of the beautiful countryside as possible in the time allowed real- izing that elderly folk could not undertake a too protracted tour. which might prove tiring, and also because these roads are gen- erally good, free of rough sec- tions, and are not heavily travell~ ed and because there were en- ough facilities in the towns on the route for the convenience of guests as they might require. A Delightful Ten Party Following return of the party to Richmond Hill the guests were entertained to a delightful tea at the Richmond Theatre Grill which they obviously en- joyed as a happy climax to a highly successful and happy oc- casion which they will remem- ber for a long time to come.
