Remarkably, the lack of long-time knowledge of Richmond Hill and the apparent lack of former communica- tion between businessmen had done nothing to lessen interest in Rich- mond Hill itself or, in the case of the businessmen, to weaken their desire to co-operate with each other to their own benefit and that of the com- munity as a whole. Instead, in both cases, there was a strong feeling of pride in the community these men had chosen to call home and a re- markable desire to do something to Commerce, now beingr organized, held its first meeting. Out of the eight men chosen from different parts of the community, only one man knew four or~more of the others. Two men knew only one other man of the entire group. A recent meeting of a men’s society in the eastern part of Rich- mond Hill saw some sixty persons present. The speaker of the evening, asked to tell something of the his- tory of the community these men and their families have made their home, called for a show of hands from those who had lived in the Hill for ten years or more. Out of sixty -â€"two men raised their hands. A somewhat similar situation was experienced when the steering committee of the new Chamber of Then take roads such as the El- gin Mills Side Road. Should it be Even this area has a few “prob~ lem children”. Take Lake Wilcox, or Wilcox Lake, for instance. Which comes first, the lake or the Wilcox? And should Wilcox be spelled that way or, as the official road signs on No. 11 Highway show - “Willcocks”? Who was Mr. Wilcox or Willcocks, anyway? One sometimes wonders where these names come from and how they get tacked on. Who decides when they are officially adopted? And whe’n? And what is the correct spell- mg. Apparently quite a lot. A feder- al government mapping- official has recently declared that the naming of some of Canada’s topographical fea- tures is a source of headaches. People, he says, pull all sorts of queer names out of the hat or any place else which gives them ideas, sometimes the quirkier the better as far as they are concerned. Odd names, duplicated names, several names for one place, give map-makers more than their fair share of trouble. Of late there have been signs of impatience with the state of things as they are. The county council it- self has pointed out, unavailingly, that it is the essence of inequality to force the present York County to share the cost of a county courthouse in Toronto â€"â€" a courthouse for which it would have to help pay but in which it would have no property rights in return for its money. And, on top of that, a courthouse so located that the lawyers and other citizens of the present York County would be faced with a maximum of inconvenience “What’s in a name . . . ?” ask; our old friend Mr. Shakespeare, in “Romeo and J uliet.” 2 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, February 15, 1962 It was recognized that it would take some time before it would be possible to evaluate correctly what that “undue burden” would be. But surely it was not expected that it would take the province eight years or more to reach a decision. We say “or more" because the decision has not yet been reached and there is no indication that it will be in the im- mediate future. In 1954 the present County of York came into existence through splitting of the old county, with twelve larger suburban municipalities entering Metro and the fourteen re- maining municipalities to the north of Steeles Avenue becoming the “continuing” county. The enabling provincial legislation â€" then and now familiarly known as "Bill 80”â€" provided for the losses sustained through readjustment. Those losses were officially entitled the “undue burden” in recognition of the fact that the cut-down county was faced with readjustment problems, because of the loss of the larger and weal- thier ones which helped to share the load of county administration. “What's In A Name . . . . ‘3‘ n1.“ Luuvyvuuvn-v ..

COOK, Managing Editor "Authorized as second class mail, Post Ofiice Department, Ottawa” An Independent Weekly: Established 1875 Eight Years And Still No Settlement Eh: lihtral A Chamber of Commerce cannot work miracles. But given goodwill and co-operation, it can go a long way in helping to get them worked. And Richmond Hill, right now. can stand a. miracle or two. An outstanding opportunity is being offered to the business section of the community to take its share of the load and play its part in build- ing Richmond Hill. Next Wednesday. the new Chamber of Commerce will hold its organizational meeting in Richmond Hill High School on Wright Street. It is open to all business (in- cluding industrial) and professional men and women. It will give them a real chance to knock down the bar- riers of sectionalism and any other “isms”. It will give them an oppor- tunity to improve their own business conditions and to help their neigh- bour, old resident or new resident, to improve his. The backing of these men, their wives and families, is needed to make this town the desirable community which it can so easily be. Last week’s “Liberal” pointed out that, in the curing of certain adverse conditions, the help of all residents was vitally necessary. With town council and residents pulling together, who can stop the cure from being effected? help it in its development, both resi- dentially and industrially. We repeat â€" who decides? We haven’t been able to find an authority. Will the Ontario Department of Highways, in a lonely but powerful minority, finally force all the rest of us to spell Wilcox Willcocks? And who is going to convince the map- makers that the Maple side road or the Vaughan side road has become. simply and officially, Vaughan Road? The county road which runs across the southern end of Richmond Hill is another example. Once on a time it was the Vaughan side road to the west and the Markham side road to the east. Now the two thoroughfares appear to have become simply Vaughan Road and Markham Road. Then there were people who insisted that the road to the west was prop- erly called the Maple Side Road. And there are people on both roads who even today persist in the use of the name “Richmond Hill Road.” Side Road or sideroad? Is the use of side road, in either form, becoming obsolete? Shouldn’t it be simply the Elgin Mills Road, east or west as the case may be? Who decides when it becomes official? This newspaper is now using the style “Elgin Mills Road” believing it to be more euph- onious and concise. Does that decide the pattern for the future? Or will 2. Moses arise to lead York County out of the wilderness into a promised land of justice and a long-delayed square deal? This newspaper asserts bluntly that the residents of York County have been given, to use the vernacu- lar, “the short end of the stick”. They are being penalized financially and in other ways. At the provincial gov- ernment level no recognition of this situation seems to be given. The county’s pleas with regard to the courthouse have gone unheard â€" the promised assistance in connection with the “undue burden" has not been given. Is it the hope at Queen’s Park that, if left alone, these prob- lems like old soldiers, will “fade away”. This county is no puling babe. It contains well over a hundred and ten thousand Ontario citizens. Those citizens have been â€" and are being â€" placed in the position of second- raters. And these points, each and every one of them, reflect adversely on the ultimate “man with the money” â€" the taxpayer of York County. and cost in making use of it. Reeve Joseph Dales of North Gwillimbury objected strenuously at the last meeting of county council to the delay in settling the eight-year- old question of the “undue burden”. Certain of the municipalities in the southern part of York County are under the dominance of the Metro Flaming Board â€" a board on which they have no representation, in comâ€" plete defiance of the ancient and hard- won right of representation of the governed. Those municipalities, fear- ing a Metro “grab”, are today deep- ly exercised over their future. F. J. PICKING, News Editor ____. . --..‘. v1 vvuu The people who own summer cottages are perhaps thinking about the amount of snow on the roof. I hear the northern woods have had more than their share of snowstorms this winter. I can just see the picture. The snow is resting on the evergreens like the frosting on a wedding cake. The snow has banked itself against the back door of the cottage, and the roof is groaning under its unaccustomed weight. Add to this the chilly silence of the winter woods and a lake that sleeps in a sort of frozen grandeur. The cottage road is impassable. Still and all you just can’t help worrying about the snow on the roof, so you’ll probably try to find time to do something about it. Or else you’ll do like I did.

When people asked him for answers he would say: “I haven’t any conclusions to give. I’m just learning about things myself.” He was never satisfied with himself or what he had done, and he had a compulsion to go on doing better than his best. If he had been content to remain a telegraph opera- tor, the whole world would have been the loser. m. .. m... uvauéu uauhcly, 514m tuners LU crusn I‘DCK, a kiln for use in making of Portland cement, and others. During the first World War, he gave his service to the United States government, experi- mented and reported on many problems. There is hardly a thing about us in our civilized world that doesn’t bear the imprint of Edison’s genius. He pat- ented 1300 inventions. Few people have been able to LET’S REMEMBER â€" THOMAS ALVA EDISON Thomas Alva Edison, the great American inven- tor was one of the most worthy men that the world has ever known. He was born February 11, 1847, in Milan, Ohio. He was a quiet thoughtful boy, very inquisitive and always wanting to know how things were done. He was not strong and was actually con- sidered a dullard by his teachers. Finally, his mother took him under her wing and taught him herself. Under her understanding guidance he made rapid progress and he learned to think for himself. He first became interested in chemistry by reading about it in his encyclopedia. His parents, anxious to en? courage him, allowed him to keep a little laboratory in the cellar of his home. When he was twelve years old, he became a newsboy on a train that ran from Port Huron to Detroit. He kept his little laboratory and chemical books in the corner of the baggage car. Even as he made his experiments, he found time hanging heavy on his hands. He bought a small printing press and type and published on the train, a weekly newspaper filled with railway happenings. He continued on in this way until he was sixteen. One day a bottle of phosphorus fell from his shelf and set the baggage car on fire. As a result, Edison was put off the train by the conductor, his ears soundly boxed as well. This was unfortunate for Edison gradually lost his hearing as a result of the boxing. Because he saved a child from being run over by an engine, the grateful father offered to teach him telegraphy. He worked at telegraphy for some years. The money from this job enabled him to carry on with his inventions. He made improvements in the telegraph and the telephone. He invented the phonograph and the dictaphone. He invented the incandescent lamp, improved dynamo machines, and invented a wh‘ole‘system of distributing electricity, __ LL,1 '1 - so that it might be used for heat, light and power. The inventions on which moving pictures are based belong to him. These inventions are only a small part of the work done by this wonderful man. He invent- ed a:_new storage battery, giant rollers to crush rock, What is the greatest problem in human relations ? There would likely be a great variety of answers. What is yours? This is my opinion. It is prejudice that is the great stumbling-block to the ideal of world brotherhood. It is prejudice that is caused by a var- iety of reasons that closes our minds to truth and knowledge which would enable us to work together for friendship, vote with intelligence and avoid inter- national disputes. We need to take time to know the facts. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: “Nature never rhymes her children, nor makes two men alike.” I too believe that it is the destiny of man to see the world differently and to develop different meanings and value of life. It is easy enough for us to see that people do differ from each other in mentality, train- ing, heredity, environment and objective. If that seems true to us, we could keep right on with profit, hearing what can be said about a subject by persons of every variety of opinion, and by studying the ways in which it can be looked at by every character of mind. I believe that congenial people exist on both sides of every antagonistic boundary. Heart calls~to heart and mind to mind the world over. But not un- less we know one another.

The trees were alive with birds mostly chickadees, nuthat- ches and juncoes. The tufted tit~ mouse (the first winter record) appeared on schedule. A brown creeper ignored man's food sup- ply and quietly and unobtrusive- ly kept circling the tree trunks in search for its own special brand of grub, hibernating un- der the bark. Further on, the mockingbird flew out of a hedge-row simultaneously to ‘our arrival as if it also wished to appear for our special bene- fit. We did not see the catbird or the Harris sparrow but how could we expect to see every- thing belonging to such a flighty population?

The visibility was clear and that more than com- pensated for the cold, raw wind which swept off the lake. As usual the Lunns had a well~ scheduled route with each stop high lighting the appearance of birds not usually seen in winter within our own area. At Sunnyside we had a grand- stand view of many species of ducks as well as fairly tame Canada geese. It was espec- ially interesting to be able to view their many different markings as a memory refresher for snap identifications in the ‘spring when they are constant- Ily on the move. The king elder duck was swimming and div- ing in his special area almost as if he had leased it for the win- ter months. The winter plum- mage made her look so much like a common eider we couldn’t help taking more and more time comparing the similiarities and differences. The list included nine species of ducks, a great black-backed gull as well as the usual herring and ring-billed. At one stop we missed seeing a snowy owl by only five min- utes. brook Drive have the privilege of seeing the pileated wood- pecker from time to time. It is to be hoped he will continue to stay in Redelmeier’s woods and give more people the plea- sure of seeing this colorful bird. Bob Campbell is still feeding grain to a flock of 20 mourn- ing doves. The Lunns have banded 37 evening grosbeaks this winter, two of this number having been previously banded elsewhere. Of this number they have not re-caught a grosbeak which they banded themselves. This shows that flocks travel widely in winter. They have noted that each flock has con- tained approximately two dozen birds. The horned larks will be migrating to this area any day now. Watch for this first spring bird and, even though it might be a very wintry day, we know that spring is not too far distant.
