It would take a courageous individual to forecast what No. 11 Highway â€" “Ontario's Main Street” â€" will look like in fifty years from now as it runs through Richmond Hill. It is possible, however. to see what that street looked like fifty years ago. And it‘s a safe bet that if you had been able to tell one of the residents of those “way back when" days what the narrow road would develop into in 1961 AD. you would have been considered more than a trifle â€" well, odd y'know! How will we and our pictures look to the Richmond Hillers of fifty years hence? Now, for that look at the Richmond Hill of the past. just take a look in “The Liberal's" ofiice window for the next week or two. There, thanks to the co-operation of Town Clerk Russell (Curly) Lynett, old photographs of Richmond Hill are being displayed. Old-timers will be able to return in fancy to the Hill of their younger days. New- timers will have a chance of seeing what the Hill looked like in those sedate days when a trip to Toronto was an ad- venture of no mean magnitude. And, maybe, some of those who grouse about today's roads might -- we Just say might â€"flgure that things could be worse than they are as they take a look at yesterday's “main stem."
