ToOpenMondays Newmarket Plaza A Newmarket town bylaw‘ presently controls store open- ing hours and bans shops from opening Mondays, but a supreme court ruling has‘ exploded the validity of muni- cipal bylaws concerning store‘ opening hours. According to Manny Bobkin, plaza manager, “The bylaws show discrimina- tion. Drug stores and variety stores are remaining open, selling lines in direct competi- tion with stores that are forc- ed to abide by the closing hours." Stores in Newmarket Plaza will be staying open on Mon- days, from 9 am. until 6 pm. “You can't close down a town these days and expect it to grow," observed Mr. Bob- kin. Camp Gosh-oaGolly Hello Folks! .. Last week was so excitlng that in moving to this lovely spot â€" the weekly news got lost. So this time there is a double amount. Before we get too far in our letter â€" let us say happy birthday to all those who have birthdays in July. Stewart Chubb 15th; David McDow- ell 19th; »Karen Pullman let; and Mark Williams 29th. We regret to report the Jet- ferson district soon will be losâ€" ing three of its nicest families, Ray and Jessie Bell and family are leaving at the beginning of August; and Mr. and Mrs. Thomasson are leaving some time next month for Kingston where Mr. Thomasson will take up new duties as high school principal. Then the Passmore family are leaving for Germany. Of course there is a bright side to our dark 'cloud. John Passmore will be bringing his lovely young bride home. There has been considerable travelling this past while, both to and from the district. The previous weekend Mr. Boffle of Yonge Sreet had his nephew. ‘from St. Catherines visiting with him and his young family. The matron of Bedlam Abbey visited friends in London over the weekend. Mr. and Mrs. Stan Leno were guests at the wed- ding when Miss Gail Kerfoot became a lovely bride. On June 28th Mrs. Kerswell and Mrs. Terry were joint host- esses at a miscellaneous shower on behalf of John Passmore and his fiancee, Miss Janis Butlin. Needless to say it was a complete surprise to “Den- nie" and a novel twist was} given to same. John stayed t0w share in the fun too. The numerous ladies attending got a bang out of an old rural trad- ition in a modern setting. The gifts showered on the young couple were many, varied and beautiful. Congratulations to this popular pair. The three municipalities which share the profits and losses of the line had been Mrs. Ed Sprague has had a busy week with five visitors from near and far, Mr. and Mrs. Ross of California; Mrs. Everingham of Saskatchewan and Mrs. Lorne Hughes, Miss Kellough and Mrs. Wright all of Toronto. 'As everyone knows July 12 is the anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne. Great day for all members of the Orange Lodge. To commemorate this wonderful occasion, the True Blue and Orange Home held open house on Sunday, July 14. The very talented Girls Pipe Band of Belffit were able representatives of their home country. Talented and attract- ive to boot It was a pleasure to hear their music and listen to their soft musical speaking voices. The program was sched- uled to start ’at 2 pm. but eager crowds started gathering before noon. Then the rain came. Due to this upset touring of the home began long ahead of ‘schedule. There were lodge members from all over Ontario. iLondon. Windsor. Monticello and Toronto. Our hats are off to Mrs. Williams and her staff. ‘who, despite upset arrange- 1ments. still found time for a pleasant word and smile for everyone and yet managed to be on the spot when needed.

A de- ficit of $9.000 in the com- ing year was forecast un- der the old rate. The new rates are expected to result in an initial profit of $10,- 000. Contributing factors in the decision of the owning munici- palities‘ representatives to ap~ prove the increase was a drop in patronage, credited in part to competition by recently es- tablished Trailways services down Bayview Avenue, one and‘ a quarter miles east of Yonge‘ Street, and down Bathurst Street. one and a quarter miles west of Yonge. When the Metropolitan Rail-‘ way from Toronto to Sutton surrendered its charter in 1929. residents of Richmond Hill and the concession of Markham, Vaughan and North York Townships faced with no trans- portation facilities to the city. persuaded their municipalities to purchase the franchise. The‘ municipalities signed an agree- ment with the T.T.C. to oper- ate the system for them. This agreement with revisions has been re-approved from time to time.

Commuters prefer-11 ning to wonder if my pen will ever rest. Be of good cheer, the end is drawing near. Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Robert- son of Brookside Drive recentâ€" ly held a garden party in hon- our of his birthday. The weather was ideal for such a fete. Among those attending' were: Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Rob- ertson of Toronto; Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Robertson of Whitbyn Mr. and Mrs. Holland Marr of Highland Creek, also their fam- ly; Miss Evelyn Eppes of Tor- onto and Mrs. Melvin Carter and Jim of Richmond Hill. There was some excitement at the home of Frank Evison, Elgin Mills Road, west, on Sat- urday. Somebody started a‘ merry blaze in the family wood pile. We are very glad to say that there was no damage. Ex- cept to the wood, that is. We are sorry to hear that Mrs. George Patton has been confined to her home for the past three weeks with a very severe cold. All Elsie's friends and neighbours wish her a speedy recovery. That's all for now. Hope to have more news next week. A lonely camper!

Last Wednesday catering groups from Brown’s Corners United Church, convened by Mrs. H. R.

Mr. and Mrs. Dick Jones and Mr. and Mrs. Ken Stots spent last Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Elmore Hill at their Gull Lake cottage. For most school teachers. summer is not for vacation, but a time to take refresher courses. Joy Fuller, Grace Redick and Don Gohn are all thus occupied. Mr. Alex Young is getting about these fine summer days. and able to enjoy the sunshine after his long illness. He asked us to tell his neighbours and friends how much he apreciat- ed their kindness during his stay in hospital.

Church and community friends were present, and many beautiful gifts were received. Beverley’s marriage to Keith Adrian Carson of Claremont takes place in the church, August 9 at 7.30 pm. The S. R. Patterson family‘ was full of joy last Sunday with the arrival of Betty andl BUTTONVILLE That was quite a meeting with ratepayers and school boards present at Buttonville Hall last Wednesday evening. Local people are justifiably worried about the sudden jump in taxes, but from the meeting it seems plain that with the increasing birth rate more ‘ schools will have to be built” more teachers hired. and more money raised. ‘ TORSION BAI Right and Left side The one thing which puzzles this observer is why the school boards should bear the brunt of the taxpayer‘s ire when the township general rate, for which Markham Township Council members are responsâ€" ible. has increased more than the school rates over the past two years. In 1961 the township general rates were 14.8; this year they are 20.8 mills, or an increase of 6 mills. Local public school comparative rates are 13.8 in 1961 and 19.1 this year (5.3 mills) and York Central Dist- rict H. S. rates were 19.8 in 1961 and 24.6 in '63 “1.8 mills).
