Miss Kay Clark, Reg. N., is health chairman and Mrs. Nor- man MacMurchy, social. Mr. Cambden revealed two accommo- dations had been «offered, one in the village and one outside, Mr. John Dew is acting as treas- urer. s Eva L. Dennis Addition Mr. Cambden assured the gathering no financial can- vass would be necessary, since seven donations ‘had been made anonymously in two Weeks. Later it was revealed the fund had $700. pledged. He said four local clergymen, Rev. Martin Jenkinson, Rev. E. H. Costigan, Rev. Gordon Agar and Mr. George Cusdin were undertaking to find employment for the. sponsored family. 7 Chairman, Mr. Keith Cambden, who heads the King City Committee with Mrs. George Berry, announced local groups would be asked to send representatives as working members of the committee to the next meeting in another few days. No Financial Drive 7 Dr. C. E. UnderHill said he woilld look after dental needs for a year and he was certain physicians would don- ate their services. Mrs. A. W. McLennan moved, seconded by Mrs. Nor- man MacMurchy, that a lanning committee be chosen to further the project, star. ed by‘York County Branch, Un- ited Nations’ Association. Past President of the Branch, Mrs. McLennan suggested the planning committee could grow as organizations offered their support. Cost of the three-robmed school was $64,833, paid over two years. Approximate cast of the‘ proposed addition is $36,000, plus architect's fee of six per cent, $2,160 and furnishings and equipment $2,400, totalling $40,- 560. V iMr. Tetley explained about half the sum would be raised pm About 50 residents and visitors from neighboring centres heard Miss Muriel ‘W. Jacobson, National Director of the Canadian Committee for ’World Refugee Year ex- plain a. community’s_responsibilities in sponsoring a family. He noted the printed report of the Minister of Education for last year contained pictures of ten public schools, the first be- ing the Eva L. Dennis School. “Two of the picture schools were designed by Vine and Robinson, which speaks well for the calibre of our architects. They will do the extension," he said. King City community’s sponsorship of an immigrant European family appeared a certainty with numerous spon- taneous offers of assistance made at the refugee commit- tee’s meeting in the United Church. At a larger than usual ratepayers’ meeting of School Section 2, King Township, two dozen residents unanimous- ly approved the public school board borrowing $40,000 for an addition to the present Eva L. Dennis School. The bank loan is to run at six per cent interest. Chairman Gordon Tetley told ratepayers two class- rooms, a staff room and principal’s office should be ready for September and it was still the board’s intention to have children in Grades 1 and 2 attend the school nearer home. A village survey has established an enrolment of 330 to 340 for September 1. Mr. Tetley explained the average room has 35 pupils. “We have to have 33 for the maximum grant.” Ratepayers Approve Of $40,000 School .Loan Mr. K. J. Chesney moved the loanis approval and Mr. James Wilkins was seconder. _ - Mr. Tetley reported King City’s eight classrooms have 302 pupils. “At the moment it is quite evident we’re crowd- ed. We’re not allowed to speculate, and can build only on proven needs”, he said. - Joint Community Effort Everyone, Will Help 4 Wellington St. E.

With Mr. Tetley. the other two trustees, Mr. Jack Whalley and Mr. Fred Patterson answered ratepayers' queries. Asked to de- fine the school section, Mr. Whal- ley said it extended from the townline to what is known as V :The chairman pointed out the $20,000 share of the loan for School addition meant up to $1,200 paid out in bank interest, in contrast to $16,302 lost in in- terest through debentures. Rate- payers supported the Board’s choice of bank loan. Site Adequate Architect William Robinson showed building plans and an- swered questions. He said the present site is large enough to accommodate up to 18 rooms, but he would not recommend build- ing more than 10 rooms on the original plan. _ He explained the ceremony of original provision for heating, plumbing and electricity would be lost if too many rooms were added. 'It was currently consid- ered advisable for a school to be small enough. for a principal to. keep in practice teaching ra- ther than become a full~time ad- ministrator. Mr. Robinson said the build- ing’s plan still permitted a com- munity hall, or playroom, to be added if needed. this year’s. taxes and the rest, a bank -loan‘ to be repaid by a grant. ‘ “When we borrow from the bank, the grant is not paid until the year after the bank is paid,” said the chairman.

NORTH YORK â€" Former Town- ship Councillor Stanley Honsberâ€" ger has been elected the first president of the newly organized North York Historical Society. The local society will assist 1n the preservation of historical re- cords and sites, and to prepare a history of the township, Mr. Cambden pointed out, “We would like to think this is a whole community effort. Only if it is the wish of the majority, can we accomplish this." He hop- ed organizations would decide if Several members of the Hi-C Group attended services in the Aurora United Church Sunday evening. The Rev. Wm. Hincks of Northern Rhodesia showed pic- tures of Central Africa and told of his work there. Socials “We couldn’t add more than two rooms at the maximum to Patton School, which is not advis- able if we could manage other- wise,” said Mr. Whalley. He con- »sidered, “There is no reason for losing that investment,” when asked if Batten School would ev- entually be closed. Church News Mr. Tetley said newcomers from the city need not be wor- ried their children's education would suffer in the village. “Our teachers are outstanding and our standards high," he asserted. Mr. J. H. Knowles read a letter from the Rev. John Morris of Aurora United Church who in- dicated the congregation was in- terested in aiding a family, through weekly pledges. S. S. 2 public school mill rate was announced as 20 mills for 1960 under reâ€"assessment, com- pared with 36 mills last year on lower residential assessment. Community Effort Ratepayers were told of the $250. education share of each lot impost and that very little im- post money would relieve cost of the Dennis addition, since it was necessitated by natural increase in existing village population. Mr. Whalley explained the school share of impost structure could be changed only by having the township by-law altered. Kindergarten Out Asked about a School library. the Chairman said, “The thought is excellent. We’ll keep it in mind.” Mr. Whalley told of the grant of $1 a pupil for books. which the Board uses “to the hilt.” and said each room has a modest library now. He com. mended the shrewd choices of Principal Mrs. Whatley Finch, who recently purchased a used set of Booksrorf Knowledge. Likely two teachers would be needed and there would have to be separate cloakrooms and washrooms. If the church kinder- garten were overcrowded, it might be an indication of the de- mand, but it isn’t. We do envis- age a kindergarten eventually," he said. Asked about the likelihood of a kindergarten, Mr. Tetley stated, “The board doesn't deem it ex- pedient at this time. It has merit, but it's a question of cost. There is a kindergarten in the village, which costs, but then a school kindergarten is not free." Teston News Talent night. slated for May 6. and sponsored by the Ladies’ Auxiliary of Cubs. Scouts, Guides and Brownies. has been post- poned to May 20. It will be held at Lake Wilcox Public School and a dress rehearsal will be held on May 6. Brownie and Guide Leaders from Oak Ridges and Lake Wil- cox attended a birthday party dinner on Monday last in Rich- mond Hill. All leaders from the York Central Division were pres- ent. York County Branch President Mr. Alex Belugin congratulated the volunteers, declaring, “This should be done for our survival’s sake. I hope your example will stir others to do the same. What better way to show people the other side of the iron curtain our system is better, than that these people can find new life and happiness in our country." King Township Reeve William Hodgson extended greetings. Rev. Martin Jenkinson. leading in prayer, said, “Make us uncom- fortable in our comfort.” King City Trustee Mrs. Mary Scott introduced the speaker, Miss Jacobson, a C. G. I. T. Sec- retary, who said, “We should be glad Canada has joined with 68 other countries in this work." they wished to support the plan, and appoint representatives to the committee. 5 “Open House Nights" Tuesclay' Thmday 8!
