16 BY TOBY SHORE Maple star gazer and teacher Ray Thomson didn’t need too much encouraging to make his wife, Ilse, children David and Judy and most of his Weston grade 6 students “star pupils". Backyard Astronomer Drew A Blank On Eclipse Shots But Enjoyed Trip They were all fascinated when he built a backyard shelter at his Welton Street home for his four-inch telescope. A visit recently to his little observatory was intriguing and although the stars were hiding behind a heavy blanket. I found talking to Mr. Thomson, seeing drawings and having charts ex- plained rapidly filled up an hour of amazing discoveries. I have been bitten by the "star bug” and wish I had visited his realm long ago. IAs Toronto Centre President1 of the Royal Astronomical Soc- lety of Canada and a member; of the American Association of Variable Star Observers, his in- terest and that of his fellow amateur star gazers include -s!ghting of changes on Mars and Jupiter and charting same over periods of extensive duration. :These amateur lunar and planetary observations are of great interest and assistance to the professional scientists. Findings Studied 'Because the amateur sights \iith his naked eye, he is able to take a more accurate observ- ation than the astronomer whose e is limited to greater mag- nitudes and who uses a photo- graphic lens, Mr. Thomson said. -Findings of amateur groups in Toronto, Ottawa and Mont- réal are studied in detail and often accepted for charts. :As this was my first session, I.found I couldn't absorb every- thing but as Mr. Thomson en- joys sharing his hobby with all ages a visit would be welcome. Before this summer's eclipse of the sun, the Thomson family equipped themselves to be trained and prepared to record the event for their own personal log as well as the Royal Astron- omical Society and the A.A.V.- 'Timing their holidays with the eclipse date. they pitched camp at Trois Rivieres, Quebec, where they used their V.W bus as a headquarters and the child- ren stayed with their grand- mother while their parents travelled to the precarranged quarters at the Shawnigan Power Plant at Grand 'Mere where about 20 selected society members were invited to ob- serve the eclipse. For weeks, Ilse had trained to record via short wave peeps and accurate timing with a stop watch while Ray practiced fit- ting his borrowed .35 mm cam- thelr presentation was plenty of proof as to their show‘s pop- ularity.

Fol- lowing the first six minutes of cloud, the view for the remain- ing two hours was perfect and 36 perfect shots of the eclipse were taken. The next day ,they set off on a 2,500 mile camping trip which took them to the Bay of Fundy via the north shore of the St. Lawrence through New Bruns- wick. 1963 Pioneer Festival Is Bigger And Better The 1963 Pioneer Festival more than lived up to it‘s “big- ger and better” tradition of other years. The seventh annual festival this year featured more demonstration, more m u s i c, more costumes and even more ‘buildings for the public to visit. Of the many sights and sounds that were new and dif- ferent to that of other years, perhaps the most conspicuous were the various activities and demonstrations of Canada’s first citizens -â€" the Indians. They ad- ded color and action to the ev- ent that would be hard, if not impossible, to duplicate. Many visitors were seen leaving at the end of the day with their purchases of Indian craftwork that will certainly emin-d them of a most pleasan encounter with these skillful people from the Six Nations Reserve in Brantford and the Ojibways from Georgina Island, Lake Simcoe. Then there was the puppet show presented by the puppetry group of the Junior League of Toronto and the large crowd that gathered around to watch their presentation was plenty of proof as to their show‘s pop- ularity.

They were heart broken to learn that when the precious eclipse photographs were taken to be developed, the film was a total blank. ' With a “C’est la vie!" shrug, they at least have their pleas- ant experiences, people they met and a new part of Canada ex- plored while they reminisce ab- out the eclipse that got away. Sorriétfiing had apparently broken in the camera, wrecking the exposures. Murray and Tommy Carr and the toe-tapping music of Chick Roberts, strolling troubadour, were new and thoroughly en- joyable additions to the festival entertainment. An old time spelling match under the direction‘ of Miss Eva Walker; Indian tribal danc- ing along the village flats and 5â€"3159 “Gossip in the Village", written by Mrs. Dorothy Addis- on of Bolton were also new. Mrs. John Flys of London op- erated a new type of booth this year when she featured her “Little Women" dolls and spice racks and jars. Mrs. Dolores Paiero of Tor- onto, with her petit-point and French Canadian homecrafts was another “first” at the fest- ival as was the Operation Mis- sions of Stouffville United Mis- sionary Church whose memb- ers held a quilting bee and of- fered for sale an excellent sel- ection of hand knitted goods.

Cedar Grove. The project attracted much interest and active part- icipation last year. 10th, 1963 Thanksgivinz While driving along Maple Sideroad (now I’m finally cal- ling it that) to Richmond Hill early last Thursday morning, I watched the sun as it came up in all its' brilliance and cast its glow on the multicoloured trees and varied coloured fields. A local sense of pride in our own countryside made me slow down and take the time to ap- preciate the beauty of nature in its fall dress. Where else would one see any view more beautiful â€" surely the northern area with all its publicity, could only add pageantry. Here in the still un- disturbed quiet morning hours was all that was needed to make one truly realize â€" re- gardless of trivial or seemingly large difficulties, surely above all, we in our area as those all over the world, need to stop our pell mell pace and quietly be assured -â€" “indeed life is good" and at this special time, as always, we have much to be thankful for. Enjoy your holiday more by taking time out to give "thanks" for so much that makes life worthwhile for you and yours â€" and all of us. Sports Galore It seems a shame that the world series only lasted four games. With the Dodgers on the rampage, I would have en- joyed sitting through at least “one more time" at Yankee Stadium just to show that, they could do it there again! What a team! Let‘s Get To Hockey! Perhaps with baseball over it would be kindest just to omit any comment having to do with football and go right into hoc- key.

Mrs. Evelyn Lap- ping, former postmistress, is assisting Verna for a while un- til things are running smooth- 1y. Thanks to the help of Mrs. Lapping and Mr. Frank Teas- dale, here is a short history of the Concord P.O. When Frank Teasdale‘s par- ents moved to Concord from Grahamsville in ,1875, the post- master was Mr. McIlroy, who had then held that position for several years, and continued to ‘do so for some time. He was replaced by Mr. John MacDon- ald, father of Neil MacDonald general insurance agent now Iliving in Willowdale. 1 Following Mr. MacDonal-d, 'Mr. Will Gowland was post- This was also a combination store â€" post office which Mr. Bowes operated until his death in 1949. Mr. Bowes was Mrs. Lapping’s first husband. When they were married, there were 60 families in Concord compar- ed to the nearly 300 in 1963. When Mr. Bowes died, Mrs. Lapping took over as postmist- ress and for 16 years to the very day, September 30, held that job. While Mr. Bowes was living, she was classed as “un- paid assistant." A very close re- lative of Verna Madill now has that title In the 32-plus years she has been associated with the postal lservice, Mrs. Lapping herself has seen many changes in the community where her children Markham pouce arreswu auu charged Frank Francios with breaking and entering John’s Auto Body Shop, 138 Hender- son Ave., early on October 2. John Barbour, owner of the building, who lives next door, heard a window being broken and sent his older son, David, out to investigate. The latter spotted a person inside the building and the police were notified. Two police cruisers were on the scene quickly and captured the suspect right in the building.

All over the world, in an lands,there has ab ways been a festival of harvest. Wheat plays a most sign- ificant role in the Canad- ian harvest festival. It is a most ancient grain. The history of wheat goes back thousands of years. Prim- itive man gathered wild wheat long before there was anything like civiliza- tion. The importance of wheat in Canada was recognized in 1668 in Quebec. From time to time wheat has been Canada’s biggest export. One hundred million people can be fed on Canadian wheat in one year. In the early 18th and 19th centuries Ontario and Quebec produced more wheat than the west. The railway changed that, and more wheat could then be marketed from the west. Wheat was a new grain to Canada -â€" imported from Europe. local hlstoric spots ( been conducted tours Councillor Ruth McConkey represented the township for the C.P.A.C. as did Planning Board Chairman Bob Kirk, and Mrs. Kirk, Planning Board member Allan Deacon and Mrs. Deacon, two members of the planning board staff.

Arvida aluminum smelter, paper mills, power houses, modern tourist resort at Murray Bay and the shrine at St. Anne de Beaupre. The tour was most interest- ing and factual as it pointed out ‘what can be done with true, community planning.‘ Reeve at Western Conference Reeve Ab Rutherford and Mrs. Rutherford attended the Canada Good Roads’ Associa- tion Conference in Winnipeg last week. As past president of Ontario Road Builders’ Association and executive director of Construc- tion Safety Associations of Ontario, Roy Steed, vice-pre- sident of Steed and Evans Ltd. of Maple gave a paper at this conference relating to his in- dustry. Frank Robson can well be pleased with the work that’s been done along the “approach to our town, via the C.N.R. rails”. This area has been an eye sore for years to those travel- ling through Maple, as well as the local area residents. Report from ‘Frank' You will note it has all been cleared and graded and Frank himself seeded it last week. Green and flowering shrubs will eventually be planted in a line with the poles. Come spring and varied flower beds will appear. All this renovation has been taken on as a local tribute to the late Herb Joslin and. when fully completed will be named “Joslin Memorial Park.” Herb used to cut down the weeds and the grass along these tracks. Not only did it person- ally bother him to see the un- kempt property but his pride in his own town was stirred to action.
