Mr. Snell reports there is little chance of the supply of do-it-ynurself trees being ex- hausted for some years to '*Ten years ago, feeling that there were still many families who would appreciate the chance to cut their own tree, Mr. Albert Snell started plant- ing Christmas trees on his farm three and a half miles north of the Village of King City on Keele Street. “I have been told." Mr. Snell reported, “that this custom is still very popular in Europe." Four years ago he sold his first Christmas trees on a db-it-yourself basis, and since then his buSiness has grown amazingly.

Fifty years ago an integral part of an Ontario Christmas was a trip to the woodlot to cut and bring home the Christmas tree. More recently most fam- ilies have contented themselves with a visit to the corner lot to acquire this necessary Christ- mas symbol. There were no restrictions on land use in the area when Mr. Gould constructed his residence there, Mr. Kennedy pointed out. Opposition among small groups of ratepayers from four different areas of the township was turned back by Commissioner Kennedy. The blessings came in the form of a slim, six- I page report from OMB Commissioner R. L. Kennedy _ destined to affect the township’s development poli- ‘ cies for the next 20 years. The plan â€" a revamped version .of the original one â€" was publicly aired at an OMB hearing in Buttonville last September 3 but only roused spo- ‘ radic protests. l Markham Township’s “official plan” cleared its final hurdle last week when it received the blessings of tile Optario Municipal Board. a r“ 111'; A pot luck supper was held iby the R.N.A.O. at York County 01‘ Hospital on December 3.

Winter pruning provides 'bundles of pine boughs which are in de- mand for Christmas decorating. Clever-fingered decorators make the fashionable evergreen swags. wreaths and other Christmas decorations from these pine boughs, Last Sunday morning. a very cold and frosty one, saw the first customers on hand at 9 am. Mother, dad, and from two to seven children (even babies in arms) arrived with the de- termination to select, cut down and take home “just the right tree," Nor were they disappointed. Nobody was last: mother and small children, after a foray in the snow. returned to the shelter of the car, while dad and the older youngs- ters achieved the goal, and with smiles of complete satisfaction returned to tie the tree on to the car for the trip home. Sometimes I tired little one would make the return trip hap- nily clutchinr the Christ- mas tree, on the toboggan. Sometimes parking space is at a premium. a couple of driv- ers have lost their keys (now they are asked to leave keys in come. for another 40 acres of evergreens have been planted down the road and will be avail- able when the supply on the home farm has been depleted. Extensive planting operations were carried on up to two years ago. and planting will be car- ried on in the future. “We're in the Christmas tree business to stay." says Mr. Snell. "On the evidence, industrial development of the area seems out of the question and the change should be approved." “Following its restriction to industrial use the only impor- tant development has been the concrete plant which unfortun- ately is located adjacent to Mr. Gould's residence." Another area of official plan disgruntlement came from the portion of the land in the south- west area of the township around Langstaff. Ratepayers wanted the section now designated as industrial to be changed to residential classification in the official plan became of the number of homes in the area bounded by Highway 7 on the north end and Holy Cross Cemetery on the south.

A different kind of com- plaint came from residents in the Highland Park area, near Steeles and Yonge who agreed in principle with the plan.

It will be some years before develop- ment extends to the are: in which the McKay land is located. "By the time that stage is reached the pattern of developâ€" ment will be more clearly in- dicated and the request of Mrs. McKay can be repeated at that time." In the report's preamble Commissioner Kennedy stated the plan provides two areas in the township for staged devel- opment. There is also provision for residential areas or ham- lets in the remainder of the township which is largely de- signated as rural, he said. “Within these areas other limited uses such as highway commercial and some indust- rial uses may be permitted.” the car), and one hat and one saw have been dropped in the deep snow and will remain lost until the spring. Otherwise cutâ€" ting the family’s own Christ- mas tree is one way of making Christmas a really satisfying experience for every family member. And mother and dad know that their tree is freshly cut and will not become a fire hazard befnne the Christmas season has well begun. I Even with a freshly out do- it-yourself Christmas tree, it is the wise householder who takes adequate precautions to avoid fire: Keep the trunk in water â€" for trees five feet tall. 3 pint a day is recommended for Scotch pine, and‘a daily halfâ€" pint for balsam. fir and white spruce. Don’t use lighted wax candles as decorations. Test the cords of your lights for flaws and faulty insulation. Use non-in- flammable trimmings only. and never leave your lighted tree unattended. Discard the tree within a week after Christmas and put it outside â€"â€" not in the basement. Commissioner Kennedy also rejected a request made by a Unionville owner of 190 acres, Mrs. McKay. to designate at least 50 acres of the westerly part of her lands as urban re- sidential. Her property is now in the Highland Park area. near Steeles and Yonge who agreed in principle with the plan. They felt the township was proceeding with works And permitting patterns to be established which would not conform with the attic- ial plan, "If this is so it is regrettable," said Mr. Kennedy. “but it is not a matter within the jurisdiction of this board." aazamamaaa Open to 9 pm.
