Manager Richmond Hill Branch Mr. William Bryson of King- Vaughan townline loaned his farm last Thursday while his son, Councillor Jesse Bryson was lec- turer to a busload of junior high school students from Willowdale undertaking a farm tour sponsor- ed by the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Auth- ority. In charge of the tour was Tom Barber, Field Officer, MTRCA, and Teacher William Ronald. Councillor Bryson ex- plained conservation measures as they apply to farm land and went into the history of the district. In one instance he pointed out great, squared pine timbers 45 feet long, salvaged from an old barn, and explaining that the timbers had been hewn from giant trees which once covered most of Vaughan. The purpose oi general con- servation tours is to familiarize young people w:-'h such things as land uses, glaciation. reforestra- tion, weather forecasting fish and wild life and related matters. Mr. Barber who is a BA. M.S.A. and operates out of Woodbridge, told “The Liberal" that city children in particular are fascinated by such tours, “Most of them are now one or two generations re- moved from the land,’ he said, “and when they go on one of our tours it is like stepping into a new world.” Mr. Barber said that the auth- ority has hopes of building a permanent conservation school camp in the Albion Hills five miles north of Bolton. “The money problem arises, of course." he said. “About $100,000.00 must be found.” He Said it was hoped that perhaps a number of con- servation-minded commercial and industrial firms would see fit to help out. He went on: “To date the site has been found and ex- cavation work has been com- Vaughan Farmers Host 3 Conservation Tours Vaughan Tells Pine Grove Assoc. Not To Worry Over Annexation Vaughan Township Council will keep the Pine Grove Assoc- iation fully informed about Woodbridge’s proposed annexa- tion of part of Vaughan and which, depending on the obser- ver‘s analysis, is possibly, tenta- tive, improbable or totally im- possible. On a recommendation from Clerk-treasurer Jim McDon- ald on Monday, council agreed that the association, which rep- resents 75 per cent of the resi- dents in the Pine Grove area. sould be kept fully abreast of developments. The decision to do so arose out of a letter from the assnciation which said. in effect. that because of the ambiguous situation rela- ting to the proposed annexation, the members felt they were being used as a political football. Would Pine Grove be part of the annexed property? Where did council stand in the matter? Did Woodbridge know what it wanted Fine Sarnia Man $200.00 And Costs On Impaired Driving Charge“ A Sarnia mun employed in Richmond Hill was fined $200 and paid costs of $8.00 on Monday when convicted of impaired driv- mg by Magistrate 0. S. Hollln- rake in Newmarket Court. Pro- vincial Police officers of the Bond Lake Detachment said that Fred Miller. 41, was arrested and charged on September 17 near Aurora after they observed his car veering five times in a matter of a half mile or less. Police said he blamed his steering wheel for the veering but a test showed there was nothing wrong with the wheel. He had a gushed fore- head and could not remember how he got it. At this point the testifying officer made a slight Successful Beginning With a wonderful group of par- ents in attendance Charles How- itt School Association held its’ first meeting on Monday. October 8. Mrs. A. Pollock, the president. opened the meeting by introduc- ing the executive. Asked for re-‘ ports on membership and the. f thcoming dance, Mrs. A. M1110 v... the dance chairman, gave her‘ intormatton concerning the dance to be held on October 28, at Maple Community Hall. Cos- tumes will be optional and Mrs. C. Twidale is in charge of the tickets. The president then intro- duced our new principal to the parents and he in turn introduced the teachers. They had everyone on their feet and joining in to two round dances, which were lots of fun and were good mixers. Then we were allowed to sit and watch them perform three lovely dances. The social committee served cold drinks and sandwiches. The next meeting will beheld during Education Week in November. Markham Fair Winners Congratulations are extended to all those students from Chas. Hewitt who were fortunate in 7 The members then retired to various classrooms to meet their new teachers personauy. ‘When they returned to the au- ditorium a skit was presented to them for their entertainment. It was entitled “How not to run a meeting" and its cast included Mrs. R. Clark, Mrs. C. Wilson, Mrs. A. Miller, Mrs. R. Webster, Mrs. A. Peek. Mrs. W. Ellis and Mrs. E. Spears. After this Mrs. G. Dunleavy in- troduced the square dancing group, The Style~Around Group, of which she is a member. The teacher, Mrs. Aubrey Van Sickle, who teaches beginners at Cedar Brae Community Centre, would be glad to hear from anyone who would like to learn. 25 Roosevelt Drive RICHVALE NEWS CORRESPONDENT: MRS. E. E. SPEARS pleted. It is proposed that the school will provlde accommoda- tions for about 35 youngsters at a time who would avail them- selves of the school for a three- day period. There will be a kitchen, dining room, assembly hall, a classroom and offices for teachers. There also would be a laboratory.” He said the need for a school is great. Naturally, Vaughan school children along with those from other townships would benefit. All schools within the Author- ity’s watershed would be involv- ed. The watershed comprises the territory from Long Branch and Ajax and into Goodwood on the northâ€"east border of Uxbrldge Township to just south of Aurora and a mile north of Norma Mills and to Brampton on the west. The school would centralize con- servation research as it applies to students and co-ordinate tours. Mr. Barber said the enthusiasm for conservation in the past three years since the formation of the Authority has been nothing less than astounding. “In the past three years nearly 1,400,000 per- sons have taken part,” he said. “Last year the figure stood at 800.000." He said that :t is becoming in- creasingly recognized that con- servation tours represent a most important part of a student’s general education. “Conservation activity helps round out the young personality.” he said. “It provides a new outlook and has the effect of adding to the stu- dent’s mental dimensions. In dollars and cents terms the re- sult of conservation programs will save our province millions." Last Thursday's lecture by Councillor Bryson was the third such he delivered during the week. to do and had Metro come to any firm decision? Vaughan Township is not com- mitted one way or another. As Reeve Perry said, council is un- der no obligation in the matter save to look at the annexation plans which eventually it is be- lieved, will be worked out be- tween Metro and Woodbridge. Council is not opposed to annex- ation but might be opposed to certain aspects of it. Metro is now in the process of setting up another meeting for itself in conjunction with Vaughan and Woodbridge. In the meantime, council indicated that the Pine Grove Association, individually and collectively could sleep soundly at night, knowing that Vaughan will keep the organization informed of de- velopments. Vaughan also will provide the association with a copy of the different annexation proposals now under review. error and said: "Accused had dif- ficulty staggering." Miller told the magistrate that he had con-, sumed a few bottles of beer at Bradford and had stopped for food and coffee on the way back.i He halted his car at the top of a rise and “the car was in neu- tral and started to roll ahead. I banged my. head against the steering wheel when I jerked on the brakes," he said. “My eye" filled with blood and I was sortl of dazed too. I figured I’d better‘ head for home and get looked. after and at this time the policeI caught me.” Miller had pleaded not guilty.
