The King's Highway and county roads crossings have been ap- proved by county and provincial roads organizations but still must go before the Federal De- partment of Transport before be- coming finalized. However, Vaughan's chief concern are the revel crossings on the 5th, 6th and 7th Concessions and Sher- wood Road. 7 These are the last two services of Youth Week at the Free Me- thodist Church. Another item concerned a re- cent discussion with L. 0. Fian- der, District Municipal Engin- eer. The roads committee re- commended that the present plans for the improvement of Bathurst Street be deferred pend- ing studv of costs of improving the road to county standards. There is a possibility of the county of York assuming the road. The former council had plans for the permanent paving of this thoroughfare but since then the county wants loo-foot roadway construction which, in terms of township finances would represent too big an outlay by Vaughan.

Teen Town CARRVILLE Correspondent: Mrs. Bert Middleton Phone AL. 7-8920 RICHMOND HILL FARM SERVICE The I’Thornhaven School for Retarded Children raised $20,- 504.00 as a result of its recent campaign for funds, reported Mr. Donald Hodgson of Oak Ridges, retiring president_ at the asso- ciation's last meeting. The objec- tive of the drive was $30,000.00, and support was received from every community in the south central part of York County Iserved by the school. Constable Young. of the Rich- mond Hill Police Department was the speaker and he gave a very interesting discussion on the safety training given in the schools by means of the safety patrol. Constable Young told us safety patrols were first started in 1927, and there has never been a fatal accident involving a- safety patrol leader since its beginning. i It was hoped that if the drive -in 1960 was successful for $30,- :000.0, no appeal would be neces- Xsary in 1961. It would appear Walter Scott Home & School Assoc. Walter Scott Home and School had its first meeting of the :Tew Year on January 19th, with the programme spotlighting “Safety.” He emphasized that good safety examples are first set by the par- ents and that youngsters remem- ber far more if they are shown the proper way to cross the street, etc. rather than just be- told about it. Constable Young also emphasized the rule of the road is the same for the cyclist as it is for the motorist. For the younger children, it should always be impressed upon them that the Policeman is their friend, someone to be looked up to ra- ther than be afraid of. Leaders for the safety patrol are chosen from the children who have volunteered their service and who have good grades as well as being of responsible char- acter. Safety patrol equipment, rain- coats, hats, white belts, etc. is supplied by the Civitan Club in Richmond Hill and each student receives a crest at the end of his four month term of Patroll- ing, if he has given regular ser- v1ce. A bicycle training programme is to be set up at a later date this year to encourage the boys and girls to practise better cycling habits and to increase their in- terest in using properly equipped bicycles at all times._ Following the meeting refresh- ments were served by Social Con- venor, Mrs. M. Millie and her assistants for this month, who were the grade four class moth~ EI‘S. MacKillop Home & School Assqc. On Wednesday, January 25, the MacKillop Home and School As- sociation was privileged to have as its guest speaker Dr. Douglas Pimlott, of the Department of Lands and Forests, whose head- quarters are at the Southern Re- search Station, Maple, Ontario. Speaking from his experience as Biologist-In-Charge of the On- tario government’s Wolf Research Program, Dr. Pimlott presented an address entitled “Wolves and Men." “What is a wolf?" was Dr. Pim- lott's opening question. He answ- ered this by discussing the oc- currence of timber wolves, coy- otes, and coyote-dog hybrids in the province and the marked size variation among the three groups. This was dramatically il- lustrated by a series of skulls The campaign was under the direction of Mr. Cec Williams of Richmond Hill. His committee was composed of Vice-Chairman John Partington, Richmond Hill: Canvass Chairman Don Brown of Markham; Mr. George Sweeny of Richmond Hill was in charge of Publicity, and Mr. Richard Hutchison, Special Names. There were over one thousand canvas- sers involved in the general fund drive. Thornhaven Drive Falls Short 2 Year Objective But Raised $20,504.00 Mr. Hodgson pointed out that after donations by service clubs, private donations, provincial and municipal grants, the Thornhaven School has an annual deficit of $15,000.00. If I had a boy, I would say to him, son, Be fair and be square in the race you must run, Be brave if you lose and be meek if you win, Be better and nobler than I’ve ever been, Be honest and fearless in all that you do, And honor the name I have given you. If I had a boy, I would want him to know, We reap in this life just about what we sow, And we get what we earn be it little or great, Regardless of luck and regardless of fate, I would teach him and show him, the best that I could, That it pays to be honest and upright and good. I would make him a pal and a partner of mine, And show him the things in this world that are fine, I would show him the things that are wicked and bad, For I figure this knowledge should come from his Dad, I would walk with him, talk with him, play with him, too, And to all of my promises strive to be true. We would grow up together and I’d be a boy, And share his trouble and share his joy, We would lay out our plans when we both would be men, And Oh! what a wonderful joy it would be, N o pleasure in life could be greater for me. your home 6': school association 52/ j Juaaz 4 £0, â€" FRANK CARLETON NELSON which ranged from one of a small hybrid too one of a very large timber wolf. The surpris- ingly soft, thick pelts with their beautiful coloration range de- monstrated, as well ,the animals’ size variation. Dr. Pimlott mentioned the pre- judice which has built up against wolves through the centuries. This prejudice is largely due to the fact that wolves prey on man's livestock, kill some of the wildlife which man wants for himself, and strikes fear into man's heart with his eerie howls. "Attacks on humans by wolves are so rare that the chance of a man in the forest being harm- ed by a wolf is a thousand times less than the chance of a man crossing Yonge Street being in- jured by a car,” said Dr. Pim- lott. In the course of his talk. Dr. Pimlott discussed the system of paying bounty on wolves, the objectives of the wolf research program, and the techniques which are used In the program. He captured the imagination of his'audience by showing the “muscle-relaxant" gun which is sometimes used from a helicopter to render the wolves in capable of movement while the research workers measure and mark them. He also demonstrated the method by which wolf packs are located through the playing of tape re- cordings of the howls of captive wolves. He brought his talk to a close by showing a series of coloured slides whose subject was a lit- ter of timber wolf pups which was raised by Dr. Pimlott's fam- ily. The pictures were taken on an island which the Pimlott's shared with the wolf pups â€" the usual procedure being reversed. as the Pimlott’s small camp site was fenced “in” and the puns were lords over the remainder of the island. This gave rise to many fascinating situations, some of which were portrayed in the slides. Coffee and cookies were enjoy- ed at the programme's end. Crosby Heights Home and School Assoc. Crosby Heights Home and School Association held a Father and Son Night on January 25th. The evening was a big success with a good many fathers attend- ing. Art Frank was acting chair- man, George Gray, secretary and Jim Woods, treasurer for the evening. Mr. Jim Kerfoot introduced the guest speaker, Flight Lieuten- ant W. Wilson, who gave a dem- onstration lecture on “Problems of High Altitude Flying." De- compression suits and helmets were on display and were of great interest to the boys who had come with their fathers. that another canvass will take place in November, 1961. since the canvass fell short of its ob- jective. The evening came to a close with the fathers donning fancy aprons and serving coffee and doughnuts. The Thomhaven School trains 37 children, and requires the services of five teachers and two bus drivers. During 1961 new playground equipment was do- nated and installed by the Civi- tan Club of Richmond Hill_ while the school itself financed the cost of a new fence and projector.
