An access road on to Trench Street from the farm property will be provided by the town- ship. Ac “In a very real sense, the future of these 8.800 indi- viduals is in our hands.

Example: the fact that two year old is reaching for your favourite cigarette box is of no concern to him, but by getting it first and in- stead place in his hand an egg-beater, or other fascin- ating object, both words are illustrated. Your child will learn what and what not to touch as he experiments within his surroundings, and to expect complete obedience on a two year level is un- reasonable. This is an age when we expect a lot of children - the right thing to say, to the rig-ht person with the right degree of loudness.

Margaret's Fletcher’s book “The Adult and the Nursery School Child" was recom- mended to the group. It was voted that this book was es- pecially written for nursery school teachers. but now in its third edition, has been found to be immensely helpful to parents as well. Parean do become concern ed about individual little problems. However, to take a wider view. keeping in mind the overall plan of training is suggested in help- ing parents to realize “Is my child read-y?”. Readiness in any area. i.e., mealtime, toi- let training. etc., gives rise to trouble if the child is not ready for the kind of train- ing ‘being imposed upon him. Mayor William Neal . . . . “Although I am pleased that Richmond Hill will receive free two-way calling u‘: Toronto in 1966 I am disappointed that it will take three years to provide this additional service. I'd hoped 0dr town could have received this service by at least 1965. I feel this free calling area should extend beyond Tor- onto and Willowdale and include Etobicoke. Weston and Scarboro. A wider calling area would prove of great assistance in our industrial development. Our rates are being increased in order to call Toronto and I feel it. should include the wider calling area." Reeve Floyd Perkins . . . . “The announcement by the Bell of their plan to provide toll free calling in the Greater Toronto area comes as welcome news tome. Richmond Hill Council and various officials have on many occasions in the past advocated the introduction of a free calling to Toronto. These long distance charue have been one of the stumbling blocks in Richmond Hill's drive to get industry I am sure the new Bell plan will prove of real benefit to the economic and social development of Richmond Hill."
