Now that the pheasant hunters have all gone home for the year Markham Township dwellers are heaving sighs of relief. Never before can we remember such in- discriminate shooting in built-up areas. At least one small boy in the neighbourhood was the vic- tim of a stray shot, fortunately not serious, but that was not by dint of good management. Per- haps the time has come for the municipality to call a halt to this sport(?). Deer hunters have been trip- ping north lately. Bill Hood re- turned last weekend; Mr. H. Hill and Mr. Charles Hooper are at camp this week and this weekend Mr. Dick Jones and Mrs. George Hooper expect to be on their way.

With the continued good weath- er progress on the new structure at the church is being made rapidly, and those present last Thursday were given an encour- aging report. In this growing area the need for new church facilities is very real, and there is an air of ex- citement prevailing these days as the community begins to see just what can be accomplished when everyone helps. The stress is for leaders, now. ivEMIS. Wm. Rodick presided. 811d Mrs. English provided musm.

The other day a chap appeared at Ken Cheney's Custom Kraft Cabinets shop at Spruce Street and Yonge, Richvale carrying pine panels. He wanted a book- case but couldn't afford t0\buy one from a store. Ken ripped the panels into boards, planed and bevelled the edges. cut the base according to a little sketch his customer showed him and mitred the corners.

The story of Ken Cheney, cab- inet maker, is another ‘first’ for this district where so much in- genuity is to be found. He has recently expanded his services and now is the ‘man behind the do-it-yourselfer’ and thinks his shop is the only such around here ‘small, sturdy fishing craft to 1 work on wooden aircraft at Wes- ton prior to his joining the air ‘ force when he had a trade group- ing in repairs to wooden aircraft and high speed crash-tender boats: to post-service years when he went into the "cabinet making Iprofession under contract to Bell Telephone for panel mahog- any switchboard cabinets and lother specialized office furniture. He is one of the few skilled men ;who were available to repair An- isons at Malton Airport. This or- . iginally was the twin-engine bom- ber later used to train pilots. One of his satisfied accounts is Fal- co.1bridge Nickel Mines. } Toronto born Ken says there is no reason why any type of furni- ture or divider can‘t be created to meet the demand of any home making skilled, fUIlY guaranteed, owner at a price to fit the pocket pre-assembly services available. that pays. In the breast of practi- u. A..- ht:an Here’s how the idea works. If' you want a room divider, let's say, Ken will assist with the de- srgn and accessories (he's had years of experience in this ad- v1sory work). then he will cut the material to pattern, do any ne- cessary machine work including machine sanding and in short ready the material for home ass- embly. About all you need to finish the job is a hammer, a screwdriver and a paintbrush. The cost to you will have been drastically cut, anywhere from _50 per cent up of the usual cost involved. The same service ap- plles to hi-fi sets or any other piece of furniture, be it for de- corative of utilitarian use or both. cally every citizen tnere nexus the heart of the sturdy do-i- yourselfer. he maintains, and his service is designed to tap that urge to everyone's saving satis- faction.

There are two children, Karen. four and Keith. two. both of whom have the same birthday. June 24. The amiable fellow, who is act- ing Captain of the Richvale Vol- unteer Fire Brigade. said his chief occupational hazard is rep- resented by little children, his own included, who seem to be un- 1-1.. _ Ken said he had considered this idea for quite a while. “It struck me that often the cost for such furniture purchased in a store would be prohibitive for the average home owner strug- gling to keep abreast of the mortgage,” he said. “I felt that many persons yvould_be ready to avail themselves of my type of preliminary cabinet work if assured the cost to them would be modest. Everyone is suffic- iently creative to do assembly work. Then too. I get a vicarious satisfaction helping others to own a decent bit of furniture." Ken’s idea isn’t built on only a flash of inspiration. Although not quite 37, he has been in the cabinet making and boat building business for almost 20 years. A well known kit-builder, one of his boat kits, assembled by Lorne Graham of Aurora took top honours at :1 Honey Harbour regatta. _ .__.. ... u-v,, When he established himself in Richvale some seven years ago he could look back on 13 years of building boats ‘from semi-hydro runa‘bouts of his own design to Open the door to a whole new measure of RICHMOND HILL GENERAL MOTORS VALUES own»; u». u 3.. that pays.
