AVERAGE » WAT ERMELON or me SINCE 1817 EFF-I 'MY BANE by Bill Babcock ‘Many days have come and gone, But even weather won't stop our song.’ Those of you who live along the bus route, (Elgin Mills, Bay- view and Markham) have heard the Richildaca Choir as the cam- pers joyously'go and come from camp. Their happiness can be seen throughout the day as the enthusiastic youngsters sing their way from one activity to another. Even in the water they are as happy and contented as we all would like to be. We have watched five learners, Simon Corden, John Benson, Michael Weeks. Steven Dunkley and Joey Harwood step into the beginners' group by swimming the length of the pool. Beginners Elaine Hassard and Sharon Cow- an have moved up to become Junior Swimmers. We hope 11 juniors will be ready to pass the Red Cross tests today. Everyone is receiving some training and even the Counsellors have to dive for two or three pucks be- fore they are ready to leave the pool. Mr. Gibson, our Director and Red Cross. Instructor, re- ports that he is extremely well satisfied with the swimming pro- gramme this year. It is much more successful than in the past because he is working with small groups of 24. In the Arts and Crafts section of camp activity, the campers have two craft periods each day. one hour in the morning and one half-hour in the afternoon. Each new camper has made a pair of brown leather mocassins, and the campers who have returned to camp have made mosaic bottles. Indian water drums and other group crafts. The tribes have made totem poles and model In- dian villages or murals of Indian The Cheyenne tribe have been working on the wooden totem pole, while the Hurons have ex- perienced linoleum block print- ing. The younger boys and girls have made flying saucers and the latest fashions tin hats for Fall. The Micmac tribe have begun working on their shell brooches and ear-rings. Life Every tribe is making a nature booklet of leaf, weed, or flower blue prints. It has been a chal- lenge for the children to name all the prints. When the various tribes return from a hike, they are required to give a report on what was seen or experienced during the trip. From the en- thusiasm shown when the hike re- lacAi/clt “Cd ports are given at the pow-wow it is easy for us to see how much enjoyment the campers derive. Cook-outs are pleasant. exciting learning experiences for all the campers, especially when they can cook a T-bone steak or a chicken leg to perfection in aluminum foil over a glowing be_dAof cqals.

Hall, Willowdale, former resi- dents of No. 7 Highway. Mr. and Mrs. Hall have recently returnâ€" ed from a six weeks’ vacation in Shamock. Sask. It was almost like taking the trip ourselves to hear their ' description of the various trips taken to visit the Parliament Buildings and RCMP Barracks in Regina, and I‘m sure they made Mr. Lepkey homesick when talking of getting stuck in the mud on the country roads and the train running only once a week, as he was raised and homesteaded in the west and knew the places Mr. and Mrs. Hall visited. A 3 Socials Mrs. R. Curtis, No. 7 Highway, visited with her sister in London on Wednesday and Thursday of this week where she left Bonny Jean and Gay for a month.

Lepkey ELGIN MILLS ONTARIO 'I'own Public School Bdo Before any more school sites are bought by the Richmond Hill Public School Board, township or municipal (depending on where the property is located) engin- eers will be asked to undertake an investigation of the site, the local board decided at last Thursday's regular meeting in McConaghy School. Thursday's regular meeting in McConaghy School. The site of the Pleasantville School has proved to be rather a problem in the matter of drain- age and soil conditions. However, work on the building itself is progressing rapidly. Though soil borings were taken previous to construction the board agreed to spend an additional $879.00 to remove soft silt and replaceit with pit run gravel on the park- ing lot before a topping is laid. Drainage easement with property owners near the school are still under negotiation, reported Chairman L. D. Clement. French Lessons During his attendance at the educational convention at Bigwin Inn in June. Chairman Clement heard a lecture on the teaching of French in elementary schools. Chairman Clement commented. “In my opinion, for us, teaching French is only part of a general need for curriculum and program improvements and extension, and is certainly not our most important requirement.” Engineering Report On Future School Sites Trustee Mrs. Irene Worrall spoke of an accelerated class at Beverley Acres School which studied French after school with an interested and capable teach- er about a year ago. She felt the teaching of French in the elem- entary grades was “worth talk- ing about". Trustee Mrs. Worrell will rep- resent the board in planning for the recreation workshop this fall which is to be sponsored by the town Recreation Committee. Trustee Cecil Williams wondered if the committee had “one eye on our facilities” to use for recre- ation purposes. Chairman Clem- ent pointed out the space avail- able in the schools was being fully utilized now by many or- ganizations. “We’ll help if we can," said Chairman Clement, “But after all we are a school board, not a recreation board." Superintendent Gordon McIn- tyre pointed out if all the schools decided to teach French in the elementary grades there simply Weren't the teachers available in Ontario to undertake the job.

MOTORS (1960) LTD. ‘HE BRITISH CAR BUILT AND BACKED BY GENERAL MOTORS call Vauxhall for value Vacation School A member of St. Matthew's United Church, Mr. Scott ap- peared to request the use of one classroom and the all-purpose room at the Scott School for a daily vacation Bible School from August 15 for two weeks. Trus- tee Harold Sanderson told Mr. Scott the maintenance schedule called for cleaning the schools for the September opening the last weeks in August. As many of the caretaking staff were now on holiday, or working to renovate the classrooms at the McConaghy School, it was impossible to change the schedule. The board asked Mr. Scott to ascertain whether it would be possible to use the school the earlier part of August. Salaries Half a dozen teachers have asked to be paid their summer salaries in advance, reported Sec- retary Mrs. D. Street. It was pointed out at the teachers' re- quest it'had been decided sev- eral years ago to make the pay- ments 12 instead of 10. Trustee Mrs. Worrall of the Personnel Committee suggested it might be wise to review the manner of payment with the teachers’ coun- cil in the fall, as with a larger staff now there might be a differ- ent feeling in regard to method of payment. The secretary was instructed to carry on as stipu- lated in the contracts for the time being. Retirement Age On motion of Trustees Sander- son and Williams, Maintenance Supervisor Carl French will be paid $65.00 per month for use of his truck in carrying out his du- ties, plus ten cents a mile for maintenance trips outside the municipality both retroactive to March lst. Previous mileage al- lowance was $50.00 per month. The building committee (Trus- tees Sanderson and Williams) will study the retirement age for maintenance personnel and re- port on their findings in the fall. The board will advertise for a caretaker and a part-time care- taker for the school system short- ly. Peasantville School Furniture and equipment for the Pleasantville School totalling $9354.55 were approved. Future Class Room Needs Superintendent McIntyre pres- ented a number of charts show- Vlctor Super 4-Door Sedan (Maltaqu tires optional It extra com lngstatistical data of pupils and classrooms available and needed in the future. It is estimated at the present stage of development. Richmond Hill School will need five classrooms a year for the next three years. A future addi- tion to the Crosby School on the East side of town will be con- sidered in the fall. Meet With High School Staff A letter was received from the York Central District High School Board stating the board had re- ceived a letter regarding a meet- ing between Richmond Hill Pub- lic School Trustees and the high school board to discuss matters of common interest. The high school board reply stated it was believed the matter concerned the two academic authorities rather than the trustees. Superinten- dent McIntyre stated the primâ€" ary purpose of such a meeting would be to seek areas of co-op- eration. As there seemed to be some misunderstanding of the nature of the proposed discus- sion, Superintendent McIntyre agreed to contact the secondary school staff in the fall regarding the matter. * pick up your phone and call your “LIBERAL” CLASSIFIEDS BRING RESULTS PHONE TU. 4-1105 Protect your barn ““ investment.
