Polls Open 10 a.m.- 8 pm. COUNCILLOR Vote In the race for the deputy-reeveship of Vaughan Township, Councillor Jesse Bryson, will be opposed by Ronald M. Fenn of Thornhill. Councillor Bruce M. Ralph, trying for another twoâ€"year term on council, was also nominated Monday evening during nominations at Maple Community Centre but declined the honour. “I’ll be con- tent to serve as a councillor another term,” he said. Wants To Go On [Fenn Bryson Being Opposed For Deputy-Reeveship Jesse Bryson, who received a hearty round of applause when he started toward the platform for his nomination speech, said frankly that after four years ex- perience as councillor he wanted to continue in public life. “There are other reasons ,of course," he said. “We're living in a growing township which has seen a popul- ation increase of nine thousand in the past 10 years and I’m in- terested in making my contri- bution. We have to face and re- solve problems. For example, while we live close to Metro we’re not in a position to take advantage of its services. We have to plan our future and take ad- vantage of the new era when the railway is through. We have tax problems. In the old days 70 per cent of our taxes in Vaughan came from the farms. today we get 25 per cent from this source.” He said that his years on coun- cil had provided him with a cer- . Ronald M. Fenn, who listedl investments as his business when he filed nomination papers, said: “Jesse said just about everything I was going to say so I can have no quarrel with his statements to you." Mr. Fenn said he had been a township resident for 14 years and during that time had always been keenly interested in local political questions. “You can sum up my platform in three Words," he went on. “They are, taxes, planning and future de- velopment. While I don't hold the edge I would like to place my qualifications before you for two years. I won’t reiterate the things we all know. our com- mon concern for sanitation, edu- cational needs, and the welfare generally." He said if elected deputy-reeve he would work hard, keep alive intellectually and co- operate with everyone concerned for the good of every township . resident. He said that his years on coun- cil had provided him with a cer- tain amount of experience and had sharpened his personal in- terest in township affairs. “If I may, I ask your help and ac- tive support in my race for the deputy-reeveship,” he ended. If a passer-by thought that York Office Equipment had gone out of the office machine, equip- ment and stationery business and had turned into a department store there would be some jus- tification. The firm’s display dyin- dow at 16 Yonge Street North, filled as it is with articles of many different types, would lead to that conclusion. Articles there in range all the way from a tri- cycle to a power drill to a basket of groceries. “Christmas In November" PrizeDrawsNextMonday The varied articles, however, are not‘ for sale. They are the prizes which down-town Yonge Street merchants are contribut- ing in connection with their “Christmas in November” pro- ject. Each of the participating businesses has contributed one article. Shoppers in that store are entitled to a coupon with ev- ery purchase they make. Those coupons are placed in boxes in each store. Next Monday, Decem- ‘beflr 5th, there will be a grand drawing, with one coupon being taken from each box. The name drawn from each box will be en- titled to the prize given by the store whose box it is ta_ke_n_ from: Drawings from individual store boxes having been made, all coupons from all stores will be mixed up together and another drawing made. The winner will receive the grand prize. Music Hath Charms??? Whether “music hath charms to sooth the savage beast” or not will *be open to question on Friday evening, when a clown band from Brampton will parade down-town Yonge Street from 6 pm. to store closing time. Mem- Birthday greetings to Bruce Greig November 27; . Clifford Clarke, November 28; Malcolm Neale Taylor, December 1; and Robert Butler, November 29.
