Trustee Jack Stone, chairman‘ of the finance committee indiw cated that he would be attend- ing the last meeting of the Markham Township Trustees’ Association, of which he is the chairman, on November 17. With the formation of the new area boards as of January lst, this association wili be form- ally dissolved at the meeting. Dr. John Fotheringham at- tended the meeting as a rep- resentative of the Woodland Home and School Association. He enquired on behalf of the association whether it would be possible to locate the new addi- tlon to the Woodland school in such a way as to cause the loss of as few trees as possible. He was advised that the‘ board has not yet decided on- the location of the additional six classrooms and would bear this in mind. He was also told that the board had met with the Markham Township Planning Board to discuss the amend- ment to the official plan of the area. The possibility of the board's acquiring more land ad- jacent to the Woodland school had also been discussed, but the results of the meeting have not yet been made public. Two trustees, Jack Stone and Lionel Frost indicated that they would not run for re-election to the board in the December elections. Nomination day for trus- tee: is November 27 and election day in December The TSA No. 1 board will not be dissolved as of January 1 but will be a continuing area as no new school section was added to it when the township was divided into two schools areas. The board approved the nom- ination of Bruce H. Murray, 8‘ teacher at Bayview Glen School and with the area for the past two years, to teach for the Department of National De- fence in Europe next year. 1 An amendment to the Schools Administration Act earlier this year and effective January 1, 1965 gives boards permission to pay trustees. The scale of pay- ment ranges from $5 each mon- thly in school areas with an av- erage daily attendance of 60 pupils to $150 per month for boards oi! school areas with 60,- loco or more pupils. System: with between one and two thousand pupils are permitted to pay trustees $40 per month. Those with between three and five thousand pupils can pay trustees $60 per ‘month. Supervising Principal E. J.‘ Sand reported an enrolment of 1,466 for the‘ month of October, an increase of 15 from Septem- ber. The board sent flowers and‘ Mr. Sand attended the funeral November 11 of eight-year-old David Doutre a patient at the Darcell Nursing Home who had been a student at 16th Avenue School. A resolution was also passed that an amount be Included in the 1965 bud- get to my the trustees $40 per month for their servic- cl. Special regulations have been passed with respect to the use of school grounds by outside organizations. These require that normal precaution be taken for the sarety of participants and spectators. that liability in- surance be carried by the group and that the group be responsible for the clean- liness of the grounds at the conclusion of the activity. which was at the Public in the Lommuter 3mm)“ "I ‘ CORRESPONDENT: MRS.

He pointed out that the rail- way had said that when its new marshalling yard was in opera- tion, the Metro Toronto rail lines would be freed for commuter use. Uxbridge Police Chief Refuses To Resign Post Uxbridge Police Chief La- verne A. Ellenberger, asked to resign his post by the local council, has apparently refused. No details of the altercation between chief and council are available except that the chief was recently released from hospital following a heart at- tack and had been granted a leave of absence. Christmas Gifts Needed Mental Health Patients Support for the annual Christ-i mas gift project is again being‘ sought in this district by the York County Branch, Canadian‘ Mental Health Association. This is one of many services to the mentally ill that this branch has been providing for the past four years. Last year York County Branch f provided every mental patient1 in the county with a gift and1 surplus gifts were sent to the1 Ontario Division, CMHA, to help provide for patients ac- ross the province. A total of5 1400 gifts was received and the 1 branch is hoping for the same] success this year. Mrs. J. A. Long, 40 Star- light Crescent and Mrs. K. Laidman, Gamble Sideroad. are in charge of the cam- paign in the Richmond Hill area and Mrs. Vera Martin, 40 Proctor Avenue, is in charge in Thornhill.

Measles attacked Michael Young this week and chicken pox is keeping Matthew Wat- ford in the house Bob Clarkson is home from] Northern Alberta and Saskatch- ewan with a deer all cut, wrap- ped and frozen. but he shot it. Mrs. R. Clarkson's uncle, Dr. S. Maynard, is a geologist with the Department of Natural Re- sources and he has a wide field in which to hunt. They trav- elled north to within 200 miles of Dewline. Murray Clarkson too is hav- ing good hunting on Vancouver Island. Albert Leek attended the op- ening of the Royal Winter Fair. The junction of 16th Av- enue and Third Concession is a hazard to people in a hurry. Three weeks ago two mail boxes were knock- ed down and the car went into the ditch. The driver managed to get away be- fore the police were in- !ormed. leaving the mail box owners a bill of ex- pense. On November 14 another driver applied his brakes too late and crashed a fence, damaging his car. The home of R. C. Birken- shaw, third concession, was broken into November 13 and household goods stolen. Entry was made by breaking a kit- chen window. Beds and rugs ‘were badly muddled; food scat- tered about and doors left open. Several men who had worked for Mr. Birkenshaw. cutting trees on the property, have been charged. U.C.W. Headford United Church Women met in the church Women’s bazaar, bake sale and tea. See coming events. The specialties of Carrville's good cooks will be on sale plus lots of aprons. towels, knitted goods and all those different articles one does see at a country baz- aar. There will be a fish pond for the children and then one can relax with a refreshing cup of tea. The time is from 2 pm. until 4 pm. What better way to spend a November Sat- urday afternoon than at a baz- aar at Carrville. ' Trip to the Museum Miss Wendy Purvis along lwith some school chums and her brother Robbie, braved the busy city on Remembrance Day and found her way to the Royal Ontario Museum. They deserve‘ a lot of credit to start out on‘ their own as some grown-ups? shudder at the thought of find- ing their way in the city, but - it is certainly a good thing to know how to get where you are going. Quilting Headford United Church Women met in the church school room for the November ‘meeting, with the president Mrs. G. Barker in the chair; She was assisted in the worship service by Mrs. C. Lee and Mrs. L. Leek. Mrs. F. A. Binnington con- ducted the Bible study, God speaking to us in Creation and History, from the third chapter of the study book, “God and ‘His Purpose.” As a current event, Mrs. Leek gave a short summary of the campaign for literacy as pro- moted under Dr. Laubach’s plan. She gave the staggering news that for every dollar the west spends on promoting lit-‘ eracy communist Russia spends forty million dollars on spread- ing their propaganda. Mrs. L. Guild showed pic- tures of her western holiday and gave a talk on the north comparing the pioneer life of her youth to the modernized conditions of life today in her former home 125 miles north of North Battleford. The Sunday morning service was taken by Rev. H. S. Cobb who spoke for the Bible society.

Without ‘ the help of the society the Gid- eons could not carry on their work. Wherever the missionaries carry on their work the scrip- tures in the language of the people must be available. The Bible society is the only source for 80% of the people of the world. In 1904 there were‘ 1,120 branches of the society; in 1964 there are 3,500 branches in Canada. The annual distri- 1bution of the Bible in Canada Translating is a tremendous task. It is not just translating similar words but replacing words to give the right mean- ing. To compare the descend- ing Spirit to a dove would mean nothing to an Eskimo so “gen- tle as a baby seal" had to be substituted.

Trip to the Museum Mrs. John Baker, Mrs. Ernie Bone and Mrs. Adam Read spent Wednesday of last week at the home of Mrs. Jack Barton quiltn ing a comforter. They are going to have another quilting bee this week and l have a sneaking idea {the folks who attend the bazaar will see the results of this bee. Shower Several friends and neigh~ bors and co-workers of Mrs. Margaret Broom gathered at the home of Mrs. Jack Mc- Ewen to present her with a lovely baby shower for her newly arrived baby daughter Tracy who was born on Oct- ober 13. She received a lovely cot and chair along with other pretty little things one receives at these occasions. An enjoy- able relaxed evenlng was had by all; following the opening of the gifts, Mrs. Jack McEwen served a delicious lunch. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Bone who celebra- ted their thlrty-fourth wedding anniversary on November 12.

The auditorium of Richmondfi Hill High School held 1 large audience of friends and Well-g wishers, among them members of the Toronto Symphony 0r- chestra and musicians active in band work in Newmarket and Sutton. Rex Battle, noted pia- nist and conductor, now a resident of Richmond Hill area.} was an interested observer as were Mr. and Mrs. G. O. Hag- en, parents of the brilliant young violinist, Betty-Jean Hagen. In his opening remarks Gerald‘ Longworth, orchestra president, reviewed the aims of the organ- ization to provide I recreational outlet for adult instrumental- ists, give training to students and co-operate with other groups in promoting music in this area. The opening overture "Eg-i mont” by Beethoven revealed that this year’s orchestra is im- proved both in balance and tone. “My Bonnie Boy" lrom a suite by Vaughan Williams featured some of the fine work of oboist David Sale and there was some very effective soft paSSage playing by the strings. Grieg’s "Triumphal March", in which the brass ensemble show- ed to advantage, completed the lfirst half of the program. Opening the second half, the orchestra’s concert master, George Moseley, gave an ex- pert rendition of the Romance from Concerto No. 2 for violin and orchestra by Wieniawski. His encore was a brilliant un- accompanied movement irom a ‘sonata by J. S. Bach. In the final five excerpts from “L’Arlesienne Suite” by Bizet the audience heard the excel- lent flute playing of Harry Standing with harp accompan- iment performed on piano by Ray Thompson, the orchestra’s assistant conductor. In addi- tion there was some woodwind playing of fine quality end with the colour provided in the “Farandole” by the use of per- 1cussion ably handled by Simon ‘Waegemakers the program was {brought to a lively conclusion. ulchmond Hill's orchestra is made up of forty players.

When asked for his ‘comments during the concert in- termission. Rex Battle put it ‘ thus: "The orchestra is makingr remarkable progress. Mr. Burgln is doing a fine job Ind is being given valuable support by some very good players. Of course, there’s lots to he done. But I didn’t come here to criticize and find fault.
