During her time on the heard she served on the personnel and research committees. She was charter president of the Beverley Acres Home and School Association in 1957 and served for two years. At a recent meeting, she told the board that outside commit- ments had made it difficult for her to do her job properly. However. the board persuaded her to withdraw her resignation and complete her term. Further work will have to be done on the new Uplands well in Vaughan Township. ‘ The township’s waterworks committee has reported to coun- cil that pumping facilities were now operating satisfactorily but the quality of water was not up to par. The high mineral con- tent was excessive, the report stated. Purchase and installation of a hypo-chlorinator to improve the quality of the water was recom- mended by the committee. Es- timated cost of the new equip- ment is $2,300. ‘In Essentials Unity; In Non-Essentials Liberty; In All Things Charity" @Want Speed Limits Set On Henderson Ave. Close to 4,500 youngsters were on hand when the roll was called at Richmond Hill’s six public and three separate schools Tuesday morning.

The only question should be of the plant’s location within the township. Council and planning board‘ had been asked to comment on the application by Chairman Charles Miller of the Commit- tee of Adjustment. The town- ship‘s zoning bylaw brings the application before the commit- tee since it involves a dangerous use. MORE DDNTRDL NEEDED BOARD TELLS DDDNDIL Deputy-reeve Jesse Bryson ex- plained that council had discus- sed the question previously and there had been agreement that the plant should be kept in the township. G. W. Keffer added that Sup- erior presently employs some 45 residents. He estimated that a new office building which would be part of the plant would employ about 40 people. Superior Propane has shown evidence of good faith in their building plans, Mr. Miler noted. According to federal law, all tanks must be at least 400 feet from any public building. Members of Vaughan Township's Planning Board have voiced their opposition to the building of a new Superior Propane plant in the municipality unless the township is given greater control over safety precau- tions in such a plant. Manila be over‘ moo feet from any building. In contrast, council members expressed enthusias- tic support for a plant in the township. The matter came up for discussion at a joint meeting of planning board and council Tuesday night. Application is for a site at Keele Street and the Langstaff Road. P. A. Deacon of the planning board expressed fear that con- struction of such a plant could lead to deterioration in the area. Safe As Anywhere Assuming that the township was going to keep Superior, the proposed site was as safe as anywhere in the township. Propane and other types of liquid fuel are a part of modern life, Mr. Bryson noted. As such, room for their storage must be provided and a municipality should try to accommodate such plants, he said. Mr. Deacon suggested that the township should try to set up its own restrictions to ensure safety in any new plant. He suggested that the propos- ed plant be required to have a trained expert on duty at all times as a watchman. There seems to be a lack of‘ inspection for such plants at present. D. Golding of the Plan- ning Board suggested. He asked if instruments could be installed which would show any flaws or leaks in the plant’s equipment. Councillor â€"Ruth McConkey told Mr. Golding that such in- struments are available.

(By Mona Robertson) Somewhere in Toronto there is a mother who ‘lost’ her little boy at the CNE last week, for three hours. And somewhere in this community there is a mo- ther of married sons, who told us quite an amusing story of her part in the this boy. _ Oh, we know there are dozens of little boys and girls who get lost and mislaid each day the Ex is open.

But despite this, and perhaps because of this, we enjoyed this story which was told to us. It restores slightly a sense of bal- ance and rightness to every day living. The lost little boy was pint- sized, and about seven years old. He became ‘lost’, at 10.30 a.m. At 10.35 a.m., a motherly- looking woman. who had gone to the L‘x Irom mcnmona mu, was walking casually through the Women’s Building, stopping here and there to examine the exhibits.
