More or less the same thing has happened to staff. The Prit- chard concern had three employ- ees when business was started in Richmond Hill at the beginning of 1961. Ten persons are being employed now. And. said Mr. Pr-itchard, he anticipated that the roll would go to twenty in a year's time. There's a bit of evi- dence to give validity to his ex- pectation. A comptroller for the business is coming to Richmond Hill on September lst and he has already bought a house in town. Reasons For Move There were several reasons for the move to Richmond Hill. Mr. Prltchard told "The Liberal". He gave unstin-ting credit to Indus- trial Commissioner “Bob” Lang- iord. “He sold me on the idea that Richmond Hill had the space the Hill from Willowdale, where it had been in business four years. It started operations locally at the beginning of January. Its In- dustrial Road plant. said Mr, Pritchard, was calculated to be sufficient for two years. But, al- ready, the present quarters have proved too small. His next-door neighbours, Supreme Steel and Engineering. are moving to their big new plant across the road, and, at October lst. the Xâ€"ray company is moving into the Sup- reme building. That move will double the company's production lpace. THE DODGE ONTARIO CAR CO. LTD.

Mary Lake, Lynda Lewis, David Smith and Karlene Hed- man record that a wide range of activities have featured the Cros- by Heights playground operations. The baseball team completed the series without losing a game and is now competing against Bever- ley Acres for the championship. Attendance was slightly lower at the Town Park, report Sheila Orr and John McCallum. There various activities have been car- ried out. Floor hockey is to be a feature, with preparation for Parents' Day also going ahead. Dorothy Wood says that base- ball has been a highlight at the MacKillop School playground. At Pleasantville murals have been features, says Gail Methe. Vera Johnson at the Walter Scott play- ground reported successful field days, with Lynn Hopkins, Robin Hopkins, Susan Boultwood and Stanley Petronski emerging as junior champions. and Marilyn Webb and Mark Sexsmith captur- ing senior championships. The Pritchard firm also manu- factures hi-fi equipment. It out- fitted all the Steinberg stores in suburban Toronto, as well as Brantford and London. In addi- tion it looked after installations in IGA stores in Cooksville. Eto- blcoke and John Street, Toronto. It is claimed to be the only com- pany which [has ofiered a sound system which permits private "paging" without interruption of the sound broadcast. In other words, the system is being em- ployed for broadcasting music throughout a store. Joseph Prltchard, head of the company, has been in the X-ray business thirteen years. He was a graduate in pre-medlclne at university. He has a dream -â€" and that is that the day will come when he can establish a research centre for X-ray and cardiac equipment in Richmond Hill, leading to a thorough es- tablishment of the industry in Canada.

Manufactures Iii-fl So far this article has said little about the actual product. Reason â€" X-ray equipment is pretty technical stuff. The pic- ture at the head of this story shows a complete set-up. Its great advantages. says the head of the manufacturing company, are that the equipment is sus- pended from the ceiling instead of being on a stand that‘s in the way. The control panel is reduced to a tenth of the size formerly required in the actual room. A new type of table permits a far greater degree of tilt. Motor noise has been reduced by the employ- ment of an hydraulic principle. There are no protu-berances ar- ound the table. The top. as can be seen from the illustration, can be completely clearing, mak- ing the handling of subjects in- finitely easier, and consequently contributing to comfort. Playgrounds Preparing For Visit 0f Parents Stressing the importance of de- liveries, Mr. Pritchard said that already units manufactured by his company were in nine hospitals in southern Ontario. Govern- ment departments were already looking into the Richmond Hill product. And. within a few months, people half a world away will see those products. The Richmond Hill company is stag- ing a display at the Pan-Ameri- can Fair at Lima, Peru, in Octo- ber and is also staging a display in Ghana next February. A com- plete optimist, Mr. Prltchard says that there is even a chance of reversing the flow of North Am- erican equipment. with the Can- adian product going to the States instead of the other way as at present. Claims Better Equipment Manufacturing costs in Rich- mond Hill were lower, he assert- ed, and deliveries were certainly better and cheaper. insofar as his business was concerned. than they were in Willowdale. that we wanted, and that distri- bution facilities were good," he said. Speaking of that matter of distribution, Mr. Pritchard said that taking a map and noting how exceedingly well the Hill was located was interesting. He admitted that there was a ten- dency for producers to think in terms of east and west of Toronto and overlook the strategic posi- tion to the nonh.

Rule; and Regulations We had to leave early on Sun- day because of the snow, so all we could do that weekend was to It was a cold, wet weekend. We had first seen the lighthouse in August in warm sunlight, trees in leaf and the lake a kindly blue. Now it was cold, no sunshine, no leaves to soften the landscape, and the lake was grey and rough. The lighthouse, even from across the inlet, looked desolate. It had even suffered more damage; some wandering tourist had left the trap door on to the roof open and all winter, snow and rain had [poured in. We went all over it again. and then stood and looked at one another; should we go ahead. or was it too badly dam- aged? One dissenting word would have been enough. But even then the spell was working â€" no one said it, and we started to work; Elizabeth and myself to sweep up plaster, broken glass and the accumulated dirt of many years; my husband and two sons, to try to make it secure against the weather so that we could sleep there that night. The taking down of the many swal-lows’ nests that were fastened to the walls and windows seemed an encouraging sign to my husband. The light- house had been a shelter for the birds and people who had vis- ited it, only to do damage, had not frightened the birds away. Then began the anxious wait until the weather was suitable to make our first trip down. It some- how seemed appropriate that the April lst weekend was the ear- liest we could go down to the lighthouse. We could not forget the light- house and eventually my husband suggested we write to the De- partment of Transport and ask if it would be possible to rent the lighthouse. providing we were responsible for the necessary re- pairs. After some months and considerable correspondence, it was finally agreed that we could lease the lighthouse and restore it, the lease to be of thirty years duration. April Fools? No! Vaughan's Zoning Bylaw Has 19 Classifications We came to the lighthouse at the end of a long, dusty road. Ac- ross the inlet it looked serene in the sunlight. We couldn't resist the temptation to have a closer look. We followed a narrow track around the inlet and out onto the point. That proved to be our un- doing. From a distance the light- house looked old and weathered, but from close to, it looked old, battered and abandoned â€"- doors were torn off. windows smashed, plaster pulled from the walls and ceilings. People in their anxiety to have their names go down to posterity had scratched them on what plaster remained. One wit had scratched “Jacques Cartier slept here". We wandered about sadly and then left. Clip And Keep This (Residents of Richmond Hill. Vaughan and Markham Townships and the rest of the area served by "The Liberal" spend their holiâ€" days in all sorts of places, both usual and unusual. But surely the most unusual of all is a light- house near the Bay of Quinte. There, as is told in the following story by Mrs. Connie Matthews, Richmond Hill Public School trustee, her family has succeeded in finding that “something diff- board and ti ments urgen Worth We the weeke wonde has pl our bl all thc lavish erent" wh’r-h is the goal of so now many holiday-makers. EDITOR.) comfo We Rescued A Lighthouse At all costs, the official plan will envisage the many-phased development of Vaughan and the zoning by-law will be the tool which implements changes and growth. The plan and bylaw have 'been a long time coming and the township is frank to admit its administrative staff will breathe easier once they have been ac- cepted by the Ontario Municipal Board. AURORA : Building permits ls- sued durlng July totalled $115,- 650, with $88,000 of that amount applying to I new Separate School in Regency Acres subdi- vision. NEWMARKET : Itemized expense accounts or! all authorized per- sons attendi-ng conventions are to be submitted to the town coun- cil's finance committee, in order that equitable arrangements re- garding expenses can be made. The town spent $1,600 on con- vention cm last year. The lighthouse. so the local fishermen tell us, was built around the turn of the century and was used as a light house until just after the war. Then the light was removed from the top of the tower and a steel tower was built beside the original house and now the light is operated automatic- ally from batteries. The light used to be known by all who used it for navigation as the “Red On- ion Light". From the lake it ap- peared to be shaped like an on- ion and shone red. I have told only of the light- house itself, have said nothing of the beauty of the surrounding country. of the long beaches that are ideal for walking, of the swimming areas, of the views from our windows, or of the birds and wildlife, but all these things, with the lighthouse, are part of the spell which has been laid upon our family. In the lighthouse there is the summer kitchen, up four steps to the living room and large bed- room. The ceiling in the bedroom is about twenty feet high as it goes up into the tower. The walls of the bedroom and living-room slope slightly inwards, so that the rooms are about a foot larger at the floor level than they are at the ceiling. It makes picture hanging rather a problem. Out of the living-room are steep stairs leading to the llght- room in the tower and out of that there are four steps down to the dog-room, so called be- cause lt is shaped just like a kennel â€" walls meeting in the peak of the roof. Also leading out of the light-room are more steep stairs leading to the roof. The lighthouse is silver grey in colour now and has windows set in frames standing out from the sloping sides, but we have begun to paint it white so that it will gleam in the sun and guide the fishermen again. We have so many memories of weekends spent at the lighthouse working hard to make it habit- able, but looking back from our present comfortable position. no one ever grumbled but all pitched in and have been rewarded by a fondness for the place that is sometimes hard to understand. “Red Onion” Light -nn... n...“ v--.:,.._.._v-.

The lighthouse is now completely habitable, even comfortable. We now have doors that open and close â€" screen doors too â€" windows that we can look out of to see on three sides the blue of the lake, fisher- men going in and out of the ins let. as well as yachts and sailing boats. We have lamps, so that in- stead of having to go to bed as soon as it is dark. we can now read.
