There is an old saying that says that things which have been lost sometimes have a way of turning up when you. least expect them. Such was the case with Ray Baker. Ray lost his wallet last June while pumping water out of the creek neaT‘ the‘old school. After searching fruitlessly for it he at last gave up and accepted the fact that he would never see it again. With losing it he lost his driver's license and a few other important papers as well as a consid- erable amount of money. Well good fortune was on Ray’s side because nearly a year later, in the exact spot where he lost it, two young chaps, Johnny Wal- ker and his friend found it. and quickly returned it to Ray who was very happy to receive it. and who wouldn’t be after all that A belated happy anniversary to Mr. and Mrs. Bert Middle- ton who celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary on April 19.

After the war, the stagecoach became a club house. gradually developing into a theatre for the same group of growing boys. A stage was built at one end, and theatrical productions were staged, members of the audience being charged l-cent admission fee. An oil lamp was used to provide illumination. This lamp was the cause of a near tragedyâ€"it was left burning one day while the young actors hurried home for a meal, intending to return as fast as possible to get ready for the per- formance. A few minutes later one of the group found the stagecoach in flames and hastily sum- behind the Trench Wagon Works, which occupied the buildings at the corner of Yonge Street and Lorne Avenue. Generations of young boys of the village often climbed to the high seat, grasped imaginary reins in their small hands, cracked an imaginary whip, set and released the brakes and drove completely imag- inary journeys. Several men. some still resi- dent in Richmond Hill, may be persuaded, without much diffi- culty. to reminisce of the days when it played an important part in their young lives. Dur- ing World War I it served as a barracks for their army; they‘ stored equipment there. Be- sides tin drums and wooden guns, the stagecoach housed an 1ingenious cannon. To adult eyes it appeared as only the wheels and undercarriage of a baby buggy on which had been mounted a length of stove pipe â€"but to the small boys who made it, it was a real cannon and shot many an enemy.

The chairman of the town- ship waterworks committee had attended the meeting accom- panied by Deputy-Reeve Bry- son. and consulting Engineer Keith Hopper. “It was a good meetinz. and all seemed satis- fied foilowing a review of just what is taking place in con-‘ nection with the Pleasantville Subdivision." stated Mrs. Mc- Conkey. Councillor Ruth McConkey reported that a meeting held by Ontario Water Resources Commission on April 17 in Richmond Hill had resulted in "satisfying" those persons who had shown concern over pos- sible contamination of the tri- butary of the Don River. Planning and building com- mittee under Chairman J. A. Bryson reviewed letters of complaint regarding a Klein- burg residential property. The piece of land in question was reported to be “disgusting in appearance, a fire hazard, and devaluating to adjacent prop- erty." Reeve A. H. Rutherford will authorize on behalf of the township that Daylight Saving Time begin April 28th. Business handled by the fin- ance and general purpose com- mittee at last Monday’s meet- ing of Vaughan Township Council consisted of turning down a request by McNamara Construction Co. concerning the anti-noise bylaw. A repre- sentative of the firm. who are currently working on the new CNR yards in the vicinity of the 6th concession, asked that the bylaw be amended during the time heavy earth-moving equipment are in operation, approximately five weeks. ‘ Council said there would be no ‘ amendment.

Also surviving are his mother, Mrs. Harry Stewart and grandchildren. Sister Ethel and brother Many lovely floral tributes were received from various clubs and organizations in which Mr. Stewart was inter- ested as well as friends and neighbours. The deceased rested at the Pipher Funeral Home, Rich- mond Hill until 1 p.m., April 18th when funeral services were conducted by Pastor C. Neill assisted by Pastor Hill of Willowdale, at the Seventh Day Adventist Church, Rich- mond Hill. Interment was in Westminster Memorial Park. Pall bearers were Messrs. John and Douglas Sloane, Harold Stewart, Douglas Rivi- dal, nephews, and Lou Barton and Jack Childs, close friends. of the Seventh Day Adventists Church, Richmond Hill, having held the position -of trustee for the church until his death. Edward Our sympathy is offered to his wife and family. In 1949 the old stagecoach came back to Richmond Hill to lead the parade honoring the 100th anniversary of the fair. Two years later. it came back again to participate in cere- monies in connection with the} Canadian International Phila-w telic Exhibition. Indian run- ners, pony express, the stage- coach, a wood-burning locomo- tive, and a helicopter, all car- ried mail from Richmond Hill post office to the C.N.E. grounds where the exhibition was held. Loving hands repaired and rebuilt the vehicle. and when it came time to decorate it, they found the artisan they needed in Richmond Hill. Mr. Ashford Wright, then a member of the firm of Wright & Taylor, fu- neral directors, had in his younger days been employed by the Trench Carriage Works. to design and paint the embel- lished signs. Under his direc- tion the coach was repainted1 exactly as it was when it was in service on Yonge Street be- tween Richmond Hill and To- ronto. Thus it was a charred hulk that the Toronto Transportation Commission found and acquired some 30 years ago. ‘ A delegation had originally Vaughan Council Notes It is hoped that this his- toric coach which played such an important part in the early life of this com- munity will return to Rich- mond Hill on more than one occasion in the future, so that it may continue to play a part in the life of this community. moned others of the group, who formed a bucket bri- gade and put out the fire, but not before some dam- age was done to the struc- ture. Thus it was a charred hu “It‘s getting worse instead of better, and they have been| signifying they were going to construct a proper crossing for far too long without actually doing it." said the councillor. Reeve Rutherford was in ac- cordance but Councillor G. W. Keffer expressed the opinion the railway was attempting to smooth out the crossing. ‘ "I think we should inform them we will give the bylaw its third and final reading when we are satisfied the work on the crossing is progressing, and not in a continual state of disrepair." stated Councillor‘ McConkey. Despite the fact she moved for first and second reading of a bylaw which when passed will permit the CNR to do fur- ther work at the Steeles Av- enue crossing, Councillor Mc- Conkey voiced objection to road conditions at the site. Another piece of business considered by the waterworks committee was the possible re- moval of iron content in water in the Crestwood Road well. the Uplands well, and the Kleinburg well. Complaints of the high iron content in the various wells had been received but preliminary estimates for its removal had indicated the cost would be too high. However, Waterworks Super- intendent W. J. Norris, has been authorized to acquire further details as to cost. and also explore all avénues of erasing the iron content. Mr. Hopper outlined how the proposed sewer main could conceivably reduce the conta- mination of the tributary by reducing the possibility of over- flow of the pumping station into the stream. asked the waterworks commit- tee what effect would take place on properties in the west branch of the Don River in Vaughan Township' after in- stallation of a 21-inch sewer main from Pleasantville Sub- division in Richmond Hill to the new sewage pumping sta-‘ tion west of the hospital and north of Maple Sideroad. What is soil? The particles of soil are actually pieces of rock eroded down from the mountains over many millions of years. They are only the medium. in which we grow plants and don’t have too much effect on their growth except that some plants grow better in sandy soils while others do well in heavier clay soils. It’s the humus, plant food and the millions of bacteria that exist between the particles that really determine how well a plant is goingth grow. The particles in sandy soil are very large in comparison with those of the heavy clay. In comparing their size you could say- that -those in the sandy soils were the size of a two ton boulder, whereas those in the clay would be about as big as a garden pea.lI think you can readily see why the water runs right through the big particles in the sandy soils. By the same token the very minute particles of. clay soil jam closely to- gether and so this type of soil is poorly drained. It must be realized that the earth in which we plant flowers, shrubs and trees is a living, vital thing which requires 'care and attention. In getting to know our soil. I think we have to ask our- selves this question - what does soil mean to you? If I were to ask a number of people this question, their answers would be like those of several blind men describing ‘an elephant, each man touched the elephant at a different spot and gained a different impression, consequently giving a contrasting description of the animal. Likewise, people from vari- ous walks of life have varying impressions and reactions when hearing the word soil. To the small child, soil is mud pies and fun. To his mother, it is material moving from shoes to the carpet. It is never quite re- moved by soap and water from the hands and face of any male under twelve, when the removal is left up to him. To the geolo- gist it is overburden which requires removal for him to observe the material below. The construction engineer eon- siders it as material on which he can or cannot build with success. To the average home- owner, it’s an unmanageable mixture of clay, sticks. stones and so on, on which grass will not grow, but weeds will thrive to perfection. materials processed from sew-E age, peat moss, well rotted barnyard manure, discarded mushroom manure or compost. In average garden soils the humus should be applied at the rate of six to eight bushels per hundred square feet. Where the soils are poor. ten to twelve bushels per hundred square feet will not be too much. Summer Flowering Bulbs ‘ It’s only in the past four or; five years that we‘ve started. to grow summer flowering bulbs other than gladiolus and dahlias. If you haven‘t tried some of the newer and rarer types, you're missing quite a good thing, because they’ll not only provide delightful beauty for your garden, but will in many cases give you a flower which few of your neighbours will be growing in their garden. Check through your 1963 seed catalogues or the spring bulb catalogues and take a look at some of these unusual. but beautiful flowering bulbs. One of my favourites is the delightful, but not very well known Peruvian daffodil. In some catalogues you will also see it listed by its botanical name, which is Ismene. The Peruvian daffodil produces large, fragrant. lily-like blosâ€" involved with preparations for the annual skating carnival at Unionville. and the perform- ances last Friday and Saturday.

I think we have to ask our- selves this question - what does soil mean to you? If I were to ask a number of people this question. their answers would be like those of several blind men describing an elephant. each man touched‘ the elephant at a differentl spot and gained a different impression. consequently giving a contrasting description of the animal. The best advice I can give any home gardener, particularly those who are new to this wonderful hobby of gardening, is to get to know their garden soil. If you've been trying to garden for some time without too much success, the advice that I’m going to pass along today is usually the answer for most difficulties and‘ troubles. Either type of soil Soils it binds the smaller particles together to form ce larger ones and it opens up the soil so that the oxygen can 3g move more freely and easily if reach the roots of the plants. ut Fascinating orchid - like blooms of pure white, with a striking deep purple throat are produced in quantity. They are very fragrant, with the flowering time being August and September. Flowers are quite large and measure five to six inches in diameter. They are excellent for cutting. giving the lady of the house an excellent cut flower which is both graceful and beautiful. The flowers open readin even if the stalks are cut and placed in water while still in bud. The bulbs increase from year to year just like gladiolus. andi of course, they‘ll have to be‘ dug before frost in the same‘ manner. ‘ Further donations may be sent to Mr. Ross at the Bank of Montreal. Richmond Hill. Support of the campaign came from many sources said Mr. Ross. Close to five dollars was sent in from the pupils of Mrs. Jack Gracey's grade 7 class of Beverly Acres School following a box social by class members. ‘ Campaign A Success Donations to the Easter Seal Campaign, sponsored by Rich- mond Hill Lions Club are com- ing in at a “gratifying” rate reports Campaign Chairman Lion Don Ross. Indications are that the $2,500 objective will be reached. he said. Another summer flowering bulb that is just a bit different. and certainly a delight to have in the garden is called the Acidanthera. In some cata- logues you will find it listed by a much easier name to remember, the Peacock Orchid. This beautiful summer flower- ing bulb comes to us from the mountains of western Ethiopia” You treat it exactly as you would gladiolus, planting in the garden in sun or in partial shade around the middle of May. Set the bulbs three inches deep, and six inches apart. I Unlike many plants, the Peruvian daffodil is extremely decorative even when it isn’t in flower. Not only is the foliage attractive out in the garden; but the ladies will appreciate it very much be- cause it’s so useful in flower arrangements. Unfortunately, the Peruvian daffodil is not hardy like the bulbs that flower in the spring, such as tulips. daffodils and hyacinths. and so you’ll have to treat it like a gladiolus and dig before frost, storing where the tem- perature will not be less than 60 degrees F. One of my favourites is the delightful, but not very well known Peruvian daffodil. In some catalogues you will also see it listed by its botanical name, which is Ismene. The Peruvian daffodil produces large, fragrant, lily-like blosâ€" soms which are most unusual to say the least. Four to five of the giant funnel-shaped flowers are borne on each two foot stem. The flowers are richly and delightfully per- fumed, and have a very unique shape, in which a delicately fringed cup is framed by five long, white sepals. Colour is pure white, with a green striped throat. These flowers measure four inches across, and the spikes of bloom last a long time after cutting. Ray and Marie Barton and baby Ginny - Marie visited Marie’s family, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Maw and Jean, last Sunday. There was a birthday party for Mary Rose Miller last Sunday afternoon, and among those present were grand- parents Mrs. Horton and Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Miller.

Wednesday of last Week The children will like plant- ing the Peruvian daffodil, because the spikes spring u very fast. Sometimes you’l have the buds appearing just two or three weeks after plant- ing. The soil in which they are planted should contain a large quantity of fertilizer and humus. There is no use setting‘ out the bulbs of the Peruvian daffodil on poorly drained soil. The planting depth is four to five inches. To main-I tain a succession of bloom, you’ll need to make three or four plantings ten days apart.
