The open season was esta- blished to provide additional hunting facilities to the public and extended from October 10 to November 24. A daily fee of $5 per hunter permitted hunting on the area with a bag limit of a maximum of 3 birds per day per hunter. Adult birds were released on the area by department staff daily to ensure that each hunt- er had a reasonable opportunity to fill his bag. Open season for hunting pheasants at Slbbalds Point Pro. vmcial Park came to a close November 24 and all reports on‘ this program indlcate the hunt was quite successful. During the season a total of 438. hunters were accommodat~ ed and on many days the max- imum number of 25 hunters en- joyed the facilities provided. The average hunter's success for the entire season was 1.3 birds per hunter and it is in- teresting to note that almost 50 per cent more birds were taken by hunters using dogs than by those hunting without. This is the second year the program has been carried on and although the season was somewhat shorter last year, the number of hunters taking part increased from 134 in 1961 to 438 in 1962. This would seem to indicate that this type of hunting, which is being carried on on an ex- perimental basis by the depart- ment, may increase in popular- ity as more hunters become aware of the opportunity pro- vided.

Deputy-Reeve Lawson Mumberson and Coun-‘ cillor Charles Hoover opposed payment of the extra money. A committee report on a dis- cussion with James Ryan of Canine Control on the town- ship’s 1963 agreement with him ‘was adopted. The report said Mr. Ryan had asked for an increase of $2,000 in his fee. The committee sug- gested Mr. Ryan appear before the 1963 council.

Other per- mits included $7,350 for acces- ‘sory buildings and $21,000 for industrial and commercial build- ings. Biggest item in the report was a permit for a Department of Highways metal garage near Ringwood. Estimated cost of the building was $40,000. A request from E. L. Ruddy and Sons to erect billboards on two township locations was re- jected unanimously by council. great deal to prevent the abuses1 of militant, self-appointed cen- sors. Some of the most common types of magazines which, the panel feels, offend our obscenity laws, are those devoted to sexual violence and perversion. These apparently have a wide sale in Ontario but their distribution is diminishing as the publishers, wholesalers and retailers are all becoming more aware of their responsibilities to the reading public.” The main item of business at the meeting concerned a dona- tion to the United Hospitals' appeal. As the university wo- men's club is not a money-mak- ing organization and has not fol- lowed a policy of making finan- cial donations, it was decided to donate a stretcher. the contri- bution to be made over a period of three years. The area served by the hospitals corresponds exactly to that from which the club draws its membership.

To The Electors Of Ward 3 (STAFE PHOTO) The report also suggested the York County Health Unit would not approve of septic tanks in the area. There is no provision for sewage disposal in Mr. Sel- kirk’s plans. ‘ Provision of watermains in the proposed subdivision was not part of a subdivision agree- ment between Selkirk and the township upheld by a Supreme Court order in 1954. A joint report from Township Solicitor J. D. Lucas, Planning Director Ron Forrest, and Town- ship Engineer Dusan Miklas recommended the report be turned down. Mr. Lucas advised council the plan could not be considered registered, since there was no township signature on it. Probable relocation of roads in the area by the township would mean that laying of mains under the present road allow- ances in the subdivision would be a waste of money, the report suggested. The classes followed in order of grades. Miss E. Barker’s kindergarten class stood sweet and shy in their Sunday best attire and said a few 'pieces’. Mrs. Ben Terry‘s junior boys presented a Christmas fantasy disclosing a number of lively Christmas parcels that had legs. Miss Cora Brodie's junior girls adorned with large bells sang sweetly “Seven Little Bells" and did a disappearing act un- til they were all gone. Mrs. Guild’s glass of interme- diate boys prepared a surprise for ‘Mum’ and baked a cake, later presenting a similar one to Santa Claus. The intermedi- ate girls, un-der Mrs. Cummer Lee’s direction displayed talent in a variety of short skits por- traying important events of the year - important, that is, to Headford people. Bearded and jovial Sama Claus came booming up the aisle bearing gifts and with the help of the imermediate boys the beautiful Christmas tree gave up it’s annual harvest. A Happy Christmas to all.

Here is a Christmas sug- gestion that might answer a small problem for par- ents. After the gifts are op- ened Christmas morning there is often a flat feeling of anti-climax. To over- come this my mother start- ed the custom of hiding a small gift in each bedroom to be looked for after we were washed and ready for bed. A friend once said that it was encouraging greed and that children should be grateful for what they got. She had no chil- dren. Children are not ex- perienced to accept the end of anything lovely and to have anticipation lingering in their minds all day is a warm home binding feel- ing. The gift was usually very simple but once in awhile it was the gift most wanted. After I had chil- dren of my own I some- times doubted my mother’s motives - it was a sure way of getting tired children to bed without complaint. When I accused her of this she laughed and quoted.
