Roads Well The deputy-reeve said the o o pmposed theatre is quite the most modern of anything in To- 0 I ronto or Hamilton, and Council- lor Watson added “It will have a fine restaurant and a swim- . ming pool.” Re Payment of Grants Council accepted a resolution fnr navment of grants totalling The regular weekly meeting of Markham Township Council held Tuesday evening, May 25th, owing to the holiday weekend, dealt with varied problems. “Of shifts and things like cruiser cars, Of shows and littering - - -” important to the over-all picture of a well-managed town- ship. Present as an observer, and introduced to the council and press at the close of the session, was the new bank manager of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Unionville, Mr. Malcolm MacKenzie, who has just been appointed to the fine new bank on No. 7 Highway â€"- coming from Kill- aloe a week ago. Mr. MacKenzie pledged continued interâ€" est and-support for Markham Township and on hearing one of the councillors quip, maybe he can get us a lower rate of interest, said, “I can’t do that moneywise, but I can promise you interest, businesswise.” Councillor Lawson Mumberâ€" son, Chairman of Roads, asked for and received approval to insti- tute a" second shift for the town- ship roads department statihg, “Now we are on daylight saving time it is possible to operate our graders on two shifts. 14 lo 16 hours a day of grading will make it possible to maintain better roads," he added. Markham Toivnship roads have been re- markably well looked after, de- spite weather conditions, since Councillor Mumberson took over as chairman of the committee. Communications from gratet‘ul drivers and ratepayers'are a com- mon occurrence in the township files. Referring to John St., Thorn- hill, Councillor Mumberson said, “For the present time all we can do is maintain this road. After the railway goes in we will do a permanent job." Littering Markham Township will put up signs, “No Littering,” rather than “No Dumping” this. year and in- crease the fine for littering to $50. “Dumping suggests loads. We don't want them to dump so much as a cigarette butt,” the Chairman of Roads told council. Councillor Watson smilingly 35::- ed, “Does that include beer bot- tles?”, to which the chairman re- plied, “Definitely. They are the worst offenders.” Those chocolate bar wrappers, cigar butts, disposable tissue handkerchiefs, could now cost you $50 if you throw them on Markham Township Roads. Accept Tender For Cruisers Buying a car requires some thought, but when a police com- mittee of a township is buying two police cruisers even more of a problem arises, as it did for Markham Townshi‘p Council Tues- day. Four tenders had been re- ceived for cruisers and the com- mittee was at a deadlock, with Councillor Mumberson favoring the Ford tender submitted by R. D. Little, Richmond Hill and the other member of the commit- tee, Councillor John MacNeil, voting for the Chevrolet tender from Conlin Motors, Markham. “We met in committee on these tenders," Councillor Mumberson told Reeve William Clark, “and met with a stalemate, so we have brought it back here for you to decide and break the tie." He then said that in his over 30 years with the Toronto police force, both these cars have been the best buy for police cruiser use. Markham Township had never used a Chev, but that he believed this make of car was popular elsewhere for this type of ‘work. The meeting then became a ‘salesmen's meeting’ as pros and cons were discussed, with Depu- ty-reeve Wilfred Dean stating both he and his father had bought some 50 cars in their time and “we‘ve had good and bad, but I always thought we got a fair deal from G.M.” Clerk Harry Crisp joined the debate stating that the automatic 6 Chev was a better buy than the Ford 6. Councillor Mumberson said, “If we are going to have a 6 let’s consider the Ford, its $200 lower and there is too much hearsay expressed here based on experience with a single car.” .1- \udnrvn -v..- Put to a vote; the reeve, de- putyâ€"reeve and Councillors Wat- son and MacNeil voted for the Chev. 6. Price for the two cars with an allowance for one trade- in as submitted by the two lowest bidders: Chev 6 $4,180. For the Ford 6. $3,974. Councillor Mumberson said there is a difference of $200 on the two bids, “that's the dif- ference on taxes for one piece of property.” Council noted the higher tender was accepted _but nub“..- . felt that since the police chief had expressed a wish to try the Chevrolet cars they should go along with him. “It’s just for a year and it will give us an op- portunity to compare gas costs etc." the reeve concluded. Council approved two by-laws amending the official township plan and" re-zoning agricultural land to commercial. 0n Highway No. 48 a $200,000 motel (14 units and a restaurant) will be built and on the north east corner'of Steeles, at the Don Mills cor- ner a service station will be erected. Council also reviewed a draft of a bylaw regarding an open air theatre proposed at Steeles Ave. East on Kennedy Road, just east of Milliken‘s Corners. Reeve Clark told the press. “We have not encouraged drive-in theatres in this township in the past. be- cause they created traffic prob- lems and were not too well sup- ervised elsewhere. This proposed drive-in will be properly land- scaped and have several lanes to get cars off the highway quick- lly and easily." The reeve also Etc." the res Amendments fieeve Clark said thg p_olice in noted this type of drive-in would bring in a nice amount of reven- ue, which would not be possible otherwise in that particular area of the township. “Israel offers limitless scope to any visitor,” Mrs. Larry-Ru- bin of Aurora told the Evening Branch W. A. of All Saints' An- glican Church. Members of the Afternoan Branch and other guests enjoyed the colored movies Mrs. Rubin showed of the air trip she and her husband had taken last year. Visitors can feel the tension in a country surrounded by un- friendly countries, she said. “An average wage is $40 a week and no one has a new car. Any one with a battered car is considered a millionaire.” 6 Million Trees Will Be Planted In Memory Of Victimized Jews Mrs. Rubin showed the whiLe modern buildings of Tel Aviv and explained the co-operative apartments were bought and sold as houses Would be. With land area at a minimum, buildings went up instead _of spreading out. Eighteen years ago, Ernest" Barker of Goderich, Ontario founded a movement based on humanitarian principles which has since been picked up by var- ious groups in communities throughout the world. This is Shut-In’s Day which, this year will be held on Sunday, June 5th. Shut-In’s Day provides people of good will everywhere with the chance to bring happiness to those who, because of age. dis- ability and illness have been con- fined to their homes for prolong- ed periods of time. On Shut-In's Day, you can send a card, a gift, flowers, or better still pay a visit to those you know,are not able to get out. ' Sunday, June 5th ls Shut-In's Day Many churches will again take the initiative to work with ser- vice clubs and voluntary organiz- ations in planning a special Sun- day for the shut-ins in the com- munity. Facilities will be arrang- ed to have them attend a morn- ing service, to be followed by a luncheon either at the church hall or at a local hotel or res- taurant. The important thing is to get as many shut-ins as possible out for the day, either on your own or in co-operation with a local or- ganization. It is hoped that Shut- In’s Day will serve as a starting point for organizations to strive to maintain a year-round pro- gramme for the home-bound.

AURORA â€"Dr. Gordon Chunn, chairman of the Aurora Red Cross blood-donors clinic termed the recent clinic a big sticcess. About 200 donors attended The next clinic will take place Nov. 17. only the occasional T. V., people jammed the streets for walking and gossiping as entertainment, the Rubins found. The speaker showed pictures of King Solomon’s mines producing copper after not being worked for 2,000 years. The refining was done in Iran.‘ Pictures taken while the visitors were on a glass-bottomed boat on the Red Sea showed fascinating coral and underwater growths. After army training, which meant men returned to camp two months a year until they were 45, the Israelis were always ready to pick up arms if no.- cessary. Trucks abandoned in the war for freedom are still seen at the sides of roads so the people will not become compla- cent. Mrs. Rubin said highest wages were paid by the Red Sea be- cause it was difficult to get men to work in such a hot climate. She highly recommended Leon Uris’ book, “Exodus,” which de- scribes the plight ol‘ the Jews. She said six million trees were to be planted in memory of the many Jewish victims of the Nazis. | Mrs. Rubin was impressed by the old part of Jerusalem, where people worshipped in synagogues as they did 2000 years ago. She spake of the religions intertwined at King David’s tomb, scene of the tombs of holy rabbis and the Hall of the Last Supper. The speaker described caves where people lived 27 years and had cool refrigeration through dugr holes. She showed a picture of an original aqueduct built in Roman times and still a tribute to early engineering and archi- tecture. The audience saw pictures of the camel market at Beersheba, where the friendly tribe of Bed- ouins sold animals. Mrs. Rubin said the children were “beauti- ful,” the girls covered their faces with dowry coins and the women were veiled. She reported Israel was a long way from being self-supporting and could not exist now without the aid of Israeli bonds from other countries. W. A. President Mrs. Robert Walker presided and introduced the speaker, who was thanked by Mrs. Glen Urquhart. The meet- ing was the first held in the _new ...B .V v, W. A. £06m. Several members served refreshments. WILLOWDALE -â€" \The recent appointment of Ray Hoag to the North York School Board has raised the ire of school trustee Mrs. Isobel Walker. She claim- ed the post should have gone to Eric Scaif, a candidate in Ward 8 at the last election. Mr. Hoag, she said, last ran for office school trustee five years ago. She said the position should have gone to Scaif who has shown more interest in the matter. Church St. Ruggles Ave. Markham Rd.
