The aim of the con- ference is to find out how the churches and social agencies may help families In the stresses of modern living, due to sociolog- ical and technological changes. Family members, not only young people, are questioning the traditional pattern of belief and behaviour, asking newer and deeper forms of expression. In order to minister to the families more adequately, the Church needs to study and to do cer- tain things, and these are dis- cussed and worked on at the con- ference, suchrsubjects as: (1) To clarify and explain our understanding of the fundamen- tal nature of marriage and family life; (2) To understand the soc- iological and psychological fac- tors afiecting the formation of marriage and family. (3) To de- velop the Christian ethics of sex- ual behaviour and to answer questions on this in a persuasive and understanding manner. (4) To provide clarification of the modern aspects of newer develop- ments in family planning. (5) To strengthen the ministry of fam- ilies as an integral task of the ministry of the Church through better trained leadership and stronger programmes of family life, education and counselling.

On May 1, council agreed with its Waterworks Committee that representation be made to the Ontario Water Resources Commission for clarification of a recent amendment to the sta- tutes regulating the amount of water that may be taken from any individual well without the consent of the commission. Said Waterworks Committee Chair. man Ruth McConkey: “Well- water supplies in Vaughan are certainly not unlimited in quan- tity and the purpose of our move is simply to regulate the exist- ig supply to take care of every- one’s legitimate needs." At the same time, the Water- works Superintendent was auth- orized to arrange for the nec- essary contract and the install- ation of a water service for the golf driving range in Lot 41, Concession 1,' Markham Town- ship. This will be in accordance with the approve-d non-resident water service policy and the cost of the installation will be borne by Markham. Musc Theory 8. History Club Fair Will Have Many Attractive Events Vaughan Pressing 0MB For Hearing On Zoning By-Iaw Vaughan Township is pressing the Ontario Municipal Board to set a date for a hearing on the township’s Official Plan, during the week of June 12th to 16th. This decision, reached April 1, resulted from forgetfulness or in- difference or sheer busyness on the part of the O.M.B. “This Of- ficial Plan of ours threatens to drag on forever," grumbled Dep- uty-reeve Jesse Bryson. “We’re getting sort of tired having to sidetrack the issue and get the O.M.B. off the hook.” A series of public meetings will also be scheduled to give interested rateâ€" payers ample opportunity to ask questions about the plan and the Zoing By-law. Council has asked the Munici- pal Planning Consultants Co. Limited, to prepare a “composite” zoning map, a copy of which will be available for every taxpayer.

R. No. 2, Gormley, Ont., on Thursday, the 18th day of May 1961, at 8 o'clock While Vaughan Township Coun- cil agreed that a university edu- cation is both necessary and de- sirable by a large segment of the school population, it was obvious- ly felt that the present educa- tional structure should not be tampered with without a long, hard look at all the aspects. Coun- cil’s refusal to back the North Bay resolution occurred at the regular meeting of township coun- cillors May 1. Richmond Hill town council, examining the same resolution on Monday, ordered it filed. Finally, North Bay recommends that all Ontario municipalities not having a junior university he required to raise money to assist any qualified student who wishes to attend a university, and assist the nearest junior universities. Such duties would be part of. the Senior Local School Board. NATURE OF APPLICATION The application to be heard has been submitted by Alexander S. Fulton and May Fulton, 51 Johnson St..

Mrs. Harry Endean, Bayview Avenue North. will open her home fort the occasion, which marks thé first time local Y.W. groups have pooled their efforts in a fund- raising activity. For many months now a "Y" sponsored ' program for young mothers and housewives has been flouishing in Richmond Hill. It started with the formation in 1959 of the Beverley Acres “Take-A- Break" committee. Similar groups were soon formed in other subdi- visions and the following now meet regularly: Beverley Acres, East Elmwood, Richmond Acres. Walter Scott and Pleasantville. The meetings, where activities include physical exercise. crafts and discussion groups. are de- signed for young women tied by their home responsibilities and with limited opportunity to pursue their interests and use their lei- sure time creatively. Its rapid expansion in Richmond Hill is an indication that the present program meets the needs of the young women and is valuable community service. Responsible for the co-ordina- tion and guidance of the neigh- bourhood groups is Mrs. Fred C. Jackson, local executive director of Y.W.C.A. activities in this area, who is assisted by an Advisory Council headed by Mrs. Dickson Miller.
