'J. N. Mulholland, Q.C. A treat la in store for Thorn- lhlll people when the Footlights club of Holy Trinity Church presents “Pool's Paradise” on April 27th and 28th next. This hilarious farce by Philip King is about the same characters who appeared in the play by the same author. “See How They Run" and which the club pro- duced some time ago. Edith Jones will play the part of Pen- elope as she did in the first play! Harry Iddon will play the part of her clergyman husband and Jane McLaren will again be Mlss Skillen. Rehearsals are underway and it all sounds llke lots of fun.

Mr. Werner is, of course, an apiarlst, and his busy bees buzz about on an important dual mission. They fertilize the blossoms and so increase the yield of berries and fruits in gardens and orchards, and they gather nectar for the delicious and nutritious honey which their owner sells at the York Farmers‘ Market, under the trade name of Arnold's Be'Tre Honey. Mr. Werner more or less grew up with bees because his father owned a couple of hives, which a friend kept for him. “It was a lecture by the late Professor Eric Millen of the Ontario Agricultural College that really sharpened my interest," said Mr. Werner. “I persuaded father to bring his hives home again so that I could use my newly acquired knowledge in caring for them. That was in 1918 and the experiment was so successful that beekeeping has been one of my hobbies ever since." A teacher of Science and Mathema- tics, Arnold Werner is now semi-retired’and able to de- vote more time to his apiaries, which consist of 160 col- onies in three separate beeyards in the country. He is a member of the Ontario Beekeepers Association. and also a shareholder in the Beekist CO-operative. Occasionally at his counter Mr. Werner plays a tape recorded story about bees, and honey production. Recently, at the adjoin- ing stall occupied by Peggy‘s Bazaar. a skilled craftsman gave a demonstration in the art of making enamel-on- copper jewellery.

If there are toddlers in your family check the medicine cabinets, and kitchen cupboards, frequently to make sure that no cleaning fluids or drugs have been left within reach of small hands.

For instance, tilting the head back‘ tends to constrict the throat. A bet- ter and more relaxing method, he suggests, is to place the pellet on the middle of the tongue, and while keeping the head lowered, or at least level. take a drink of water.

The original Richvale School consists of two second-hand por- tables, placed over a basement, and surfaced with second-hand brick from the old Toronto Un- ion Station for a total deben- ture debt of $4,500 in the years This goes deeper than the question of the roads,” inter- jected Chairman Timmins. “lt goes into the question of the dissoluton of the police village itself. It is not something to go into lightly. We would have to go into it most seriously and consider what the results would be". “It seems to me that we will agreement which he had are- have to go on in the same way pared.

The agreement'was “Either We are going to spend $2,300 for a truck or we are going to get rid of all our equipment and turn the roads back to the townships.” stated Trustee Tucker. Trustee Tucker stated that he had made enquiries about the possible purchase of a second- hand truck but had been told that there Were virtually none available. The three trustees all agreed, however, that it would be risky to buy a second- hand vehicle which could quite possibly require work done on it in a very short while, and de- cided that a new truck would be a better buy. No Truck Considerable discussion then ensued as to whether or not the village actually needed a truck, new or used. Trustee Roberts tended to the opinion that the village could get along without one, but it appeared that this would entail turning the village road maintenance back to the townships. “We don’t fix our own roads now," he stated. add- ing that all they really did to them was to fill in a few holes and sand them. Lively Discussion On Village Road Work Precedes Purchase New Truck Thornhill Trustees He hadireceived prices on a new truck from R. D. Little & Sons Ltd. in Richmond Hill and Macdougall Motors in Richvale. The lowest price was from Mac- dougall Motors who quoted a total price of $2,142.19 for a G.M.C. 3/Q-ton pick-up, includingfsales “tax, but not including license. Total price for a l-ton truck; was $2,316.50. Trustee Tucker himself favoured the? 1-ton truck as it would be made of heavier steel, have a heavier body and would carry a heavier load. ‘ The bulk of the meeting of the Thornhill Village Trustees held on March 7th was spent discussing the proposed purchase by the village of a truck, either new or second hand. Trustee Tucker reported to the trustees that he had received an estimate of $550.00 to repair the present truck and as he had been authorized to spend $300 on its repair, had not ordered the work done.

This was the same as the old agreement but It includ- ed a clause to the efi‘ect that the A.R.C. would pay the vill- age the sum of $1,500.00 per year for maintenance in the had been received respecting the village garbage collection, although the secretary had re- ceived one phone call. It was assumed that the present coi- lector, Lou Reid, would be will- ing to continue on the same‘ basis as in the past. 1 A.R.C. ‘ As the other two trustees were iin favour of buying the truck, ‘Trustee Roberts went along with them, but stated emphati- cally that the village did not need the heavier truck but that the 3A ton model would be quite adequate. It was accordingly mo- ved, seconded and carried that the village purchase the 3/4 ton GMC pick~up from Macdougall Motors at a price of $2,142.00. Garbage Collection It was noted that no tenders‘ It was pointed out that the only reason the village was able to give this service was because it had always had a trustee who had been able to supervise the work without remuneration. It was felt however, that they would just have to depend on having a trustee who was free to do this, although Trustee Tucker mentioned that the vill- age of King City had a part- time paid manager who did this. and we would not get the same service in the village as we are get-ting now." Free Supervision is a special problem, partic- ularly because of the port- able nature of the build- ings, that Deputy Minister of Education Elkhorn had spoken strongly in favor of centralized schools at the Oh ficial opening of the Klein- burg addition, and that per- sonally he felt the depart- ment should make a double or triple allowance for the formation of central schools. Mr. Goodwin pointed out that 115 pupils now attend- ing Langstafl School will be forced by the construction of the extension of No. 7 Highway to attend Charles Howitt School and the new Richvale School has been planned for accommodation of 88 students from Charles Howitt along with those presently attending the Blchvale School. !

Harris. all of which bills were for hauling away the snow from the village streets. The meeting then adjourned. Highlight of the regular meet- ing of St. Paschal Baylon C. W. L. meeting was a discussion on colour decorating by Joan Sut- ton of a Toronto chemical firm. Mrs. H. Kane, social action convenor. reported on the visit to St. John's Convalescent Hos- pital February 14.

Chairman Tlmmins stated that as the trustees' representative' on the library board, he had gone over the budget with them. He noted that it included a levy of $2,500 on the village, the same as last year and that they were budgeting $482.00 for books, plus another $100 they expected to receive from the Lions Club for this purpose. Mr. Tlmmins accordingly moved the adoption of the library board budget and the inclusion of the: $2,500 levy in the village bud-‘ get, and this was seconded by Trustee Roberts and passed. Mrs. J. Mathers. spiritual con- venor, outlined the points of the recent retreat at the Cenacle. which were stressed by retreat master. She also said that a Day of Recollection will be held at the Cenacle March 21. This is a joint activity for all councils. A copy of the 1962 budget forl the Thornhill Public Libraryl was received showing expected expenditures for the year of $4,525.00. Trustee Frank Tucker, because of a possible conflict of interest, withdrew from discus? slon of the library board budget.’ A letter was also received. signed by some ten Thornhill village businessmen, asking that parking on the north side of Colborne Street be restricted to one hour. It was stated that several people were making a practice of parking on Colborne Street for the entire day which ‘meant that prospective shoppers ‘in the village did not have ade- quate space in which to park. Chairman Timmins offered to look into the matter of existing by-la-ws in this connection and report back at the next meet- ing. Library Budget Correspondence included a cheque for $25. from the York Farmers’ Market for their 11c- ense fee for the year; a letter from the Thornhill Public Li- brary Board enclosing a cheque for $52.62 for insurance prem- iums for 1961; and a letter from Mr. N. W. B. Jackson advising that he would be happy to ac- cept the re-appointment to the“ library board for the next two years.
