The importance of child- ren's play situations can never be underestimated, and indirect control through guidance can lead to good attitudes to devel- op for handling of real life sit- nations.

Ways to avoid “diffic- ult” play were outlined: (1) beâ€" ing too “tidy” can spoil all in- terest - one cleaning-up whenl play is finished should be ad- equate (2) provide a suitable place (3) avoid materials limit- ed in use (4) noisy toys for outside use (5) boredom causes fighting among little ones. .Parents of older children had many questions to ask on sev- eral subjects. and considerable discussion was aroused on the subject of early or “experim- ental” smoking.

An interesting aspect of children’s play is that they need to be destructive. Parents could have on hand old catalogues and scribblers to help children work out this feeling. Special places for good articles not to be des- troyed or marked will teach the child there is a difference, and the parent can instruct in its observance. Pre-schoolers need supervision although not enough to discour- age their own ideas, and to en- able the parents to help their children in this area, free liter- ature on this subject was made available through this com-Se for it had an excellent hotel. At the present moment the town has neither, but a hospital will erected in the near future. The speaker also referred to two new firms who recently esta- blished in Richmond Hill, who, when it came time for their official opening, had to enter- tain out of the Hill, because there were no suitable facilities in the town. Some questions have been raised as to the type of building that is proposed, said Mr. Tout- lofrf. “This is a prestige build- ing worth over a million dol- lars, not a hot-dog stand." He also stressed that the investor, Walter Portway, was no "fly- by-nighter" but 'a sound busi- nessman who is presently es- tablishing a 14 million dollar firm in Ottawa. Mr. Toutlofi also referred to the fact that if a hotel was es- tablished in Richmond Hill, the assessment yleld off the prop- erty where the proposed hotel ‘is to be established would in- crease to $36,000 as compared to a present $2,900 at present.

Old Cemeteries In Vaughan Twp. A number of abandoned ce- meteries in Vaughan Township are under consideration by township council for restora- tion purposes. It was pointed out recently that there were numerous cemeteries 1n the township that had been neglect- ed for some years because the congregations of the churches they were connected with had died 011' or moved away. The burying grounds had become overgrown with weeds and ‘brush, and, in some cases it was thought that these places could create health problems. Council decided to enact a vby-Iaw to restore some of the‘ abandoned cemeteries. One of the ones being dealt with at present is the Free Presbyter- ian Church cemetery near Pur- pleville. A cairn is being erect- ed there through the township’s 1winter works programme. Council members indicated they would like to see some of the other old cemeteries in the township cleaned up and re- stored, although it was pointed out that such an undertaking could be quite extensive. 12th Brownie Pack The 12th Brownie Pack of Richmond Hill East met for their regular meeting on Friday last at Our Lady Help of Christian: School under the leadership of Brown Owl Mrs. Edna Poulln, Tawny Owl Mrs. Edna Hornett, assisted by Pac- lde Judy Strothex‘s. After the usual opening, the girls spent the major part of their time learning to knit. Four ladies â€" Mrs. Sandy In- gram, Mrs. Ethel Riley, Mrs. Cissie Riswick and Mrs. Rita Galliene kindly gave up their time to teach the girls how to ‘cast on stitches,- knit, and then least ofl‘. Mrs. Sadie McGillvray was also present to pass the “Gal- den Hand" Brownies on some of their tests. On the previous Sunday, the 12th Brownie Pack held a Church Parade. attend- ing the nine mm.

Richmond Hill Works Com- missioner Otto Whalen told "The Liberal” Tuesday, that al- though his department was get- ting up to 60 calls per day from people complaining about water flooding driveways, ditches and roads. no serious flooding had 1been reported. He also said that no property damage had been reported to his department Municipal Officers Say to the present. Most of the driveway flooding is caused by water which cannot escape through frozen culverts. When such a report is received. the works department merely sends in a steamer which thaws out the culvert and lets the water run off, he said. Few cellars, if any. are flooded and sewers are not backing up.

Richmond Hill Eastâ€"accom- panied by their Captain, Mrs. Jean Inglisâ€"went on an all day outing in Kettleby. After preparing lunch, we all went exploring the forests of Richel- deca day camp. W-hen lunch was over, we brought out our skis and toboggans, and had a merry time slipping down the steep slopes. Most of us stayed outside ex- ploring and skiing for quite a while but the elders of our group decided to go back into the warm cabin after a tho- rough soaking. When all had‘ returned, we finished up “the leftovers” from our spaghetti land hot dog lunch. Later, we had a sing song and games. Then, Patrol Leaders Ann Fir- man, Gloria Smart and Cap- tain Mrs. Jean Inglis went out- side and laid a Trail, which would later be followed by Guide Brenda Harland and Brownie Margaret Inglis. While they were gone. Sylvia Inglis showed others the prop- er way to hoist a flag. It was soon time to pack up and leave for fhome.

We are getting about 30 calls per day concerning flooding and have three steam- ers working at present, two of them having been out for two weeks now".
