Mr. Rump's letter gave the councils 20 days in which to submit their objections. King Township and King City councils have until Christmas to protest to the federal trans- port board against the CNR‘s application to close the local station agency. A number of local residents and firms added their protests to those of the councils at two meetings with CNR officials last month. Mrs. Warren McKendry and Mrs. Robert Innes reported on the two-day course in rug-hook- ing they had taken at Newmark- et with representatives of seven other branches. A similar course followed at Buttonville.

Lake Wilcox School Board The Lake Wilcox school will keep their same school for at ods, by revenue raised from taxes collected in the area. Later establishment of a separate school to serve the area cut down on the assess- ment and enrolment for the public school section. Mr. Hanson contended the action of Whitchurch Town- ship Council in relieving se- parate school supporters of the responsibility for the debentures was incorrect. Separate school supporters should continue to help pay for the debentures, Mr. Han- son stated. He claimed the debenture payments worked a hardship on the remaining public school supporters. Only 10 of the 14 rooms in Lake Wilcox Public School are now in use.

The object of this church Christmas party is to have the children bring a white gift for someone needy rather than to receive a gift for themselves. The congregation also take white gifts to churdh and has- kets are made up for people in the community. The junior boys TYRO club enjoyed a Christmas party at St. Paul's last week with Rev.

Britishâ€"$75 per person. West Germansâ€" $60 per person. i If each of us reduced our import buying by just $100 and diverted that money to the purchase of Canadian products, the province of Ontario would gain 600,000,000 vital dollars which would help provide 60,000 new jobs! The adjournment of the annual meeting was called because tax collection is not the responsibility of the school board. After discus- sions of the problem. the meeting reconvened to no- minate Mrs. Flora Munro as trustee for a third three- year term.

Ohief accomplishment of the 1962 board was the esta- blishment of an opportunity class for 10 students at Lake Wilcox School. The class is designed for slow learners.
