MacKlllop The January meeting of the MacKiilop Home and School As- sociation was held in the school auditorium on January let. The members present enjoyed a most interesting talk by Mr. Howard Mountain, who is programme organizer for Metropolitan Edu- cational Television Association. “fifthâ€"Mountain pointed out that the youngster of today faces a much greater challenge than ever before. It is estimated that knowledge is doubling every 10 years. This is a competitive world and education never ends. Any method of education there- fore which can speed up the learning process must be en- \couraged. In many countries such as Japan, Russia, Italy, France. Educational Television stations have been established. In the U.S., educational T.V. is rapidly expanding, but here in Canada we have at present no educa- tional television stations. it is hoped that one will be estab- lished in Toronto within the next three years. This is the aim of the Toronto Educational Television Association whose members are educators and peo- ple interested in education at all levels. Programmes could be produced to assist teachers with any course of study and bring into the classer things which would not otherwise be possible. w The inrerxt genéral meéhng of the association will be held in the school on February 18th Wentvworbh’s resolution also‘ called on the province to in- form the pwblic “of the serious- ness of the detergent polluflon in Ont-aria waters". A resolution from Markham Village asking the province to extend workmen's compensation to volunteer firemen was also backed by Markham Council. The village's action came when a local fireman died of a heart attack after fighting a fire. Township Engineer Dusan Miklas was instructed to pre- pare a report estimating the cost of building a sidewalk a- long Henderson Avenue from Steeles Avenue to Hendenson Avenue. According to a report sub-‘ mitted by Welfare Ofilcer Nor- man Lewis, welfare costs from ‘August to December dropped from $4,576.19 in 1961 to $4.- 172.72 in 1962. The study is being made af- ter a request for the sidewalk from the board of Township School Area One. Hiring of a welfare officer in Markham Township cut costs almost 10 per cent during the last five months of 1962. Drop in the number 0:! rec!- pients was even larger - from 223 in 1961 to 164 in 1962. Council named Harvey Col- lard of Gomley to the commit- tee of adjustment. Arthur L.

Telephone Service Static Just about a year ago now, AX. 3 and Unionvllle customers in the area were involved in a heated discussion with the Bell Telephone Co. because of pro- posed changes in service. AX. 3 customers, who had en- joyed free calling to Toronto for more than six years, were to be switched to the Unionville exchange, which in turn would be linked with Stouffville, in- ‘stead of Toronto. Now, after almost a year of anxiety, it has been announced that local service will remain static, and in June 1964, all of the Unlonville exchange south from 16th Avenue, will become part of the Agincourt exchange. according to Mr. W. C. Barnes, 3 company ofiicial. The remaining part of the Unionville exchange, some 40 customers north of 18th Avenue, will become part of the Gom- ley exchange in November of this year.

In all probability, it was the protests at that meeting which helped Bell personnel to arrive at their present decision. Jame; McQuay Dies Last week friends were griev-‘ ed to l_eam of the sudden pass- ing of a life-long resident of this community, James Welling- ton Mchay. His death came January 24 at the Scarboro General Hos- pital, where he was taken Wed- nesday evening following a stroke suffered at his Unionvllle home. Mr. McQuay was a member of a local pioneer famlly, and un- til a dozen years ago he farmed land on Don Mills Road south of Highway 7. At that time part of the farm was sold, and he became prop-1 rietor of McQuay's Service St-a- tion on Don Mills Road, where he was later joined by his son Donald. Rev. Dr. A. F. Binnlngmn‘ pastor of Mr. McQuay’s church,‘ preached the funeral service at Dixon Funeral Home, Mark- ham, January 26. Burial was at Highland Mem- ory Gardens, Don Mills Road. Pallbearers were long-time friends of the deceased: Els- worth and Lloyd Stonehouse, Clarence and Gordon Scott, Stanley Fierheller, and Deputy- ‘reeve Charles Hooper.
