The first settlement in- eluded four churches, three of which were later moved to the south side of the Don, the orig- inal building of Holy Trinity being moved piece by piece and reassembled. The other two, Wesleyan Methodist, now the Dutch Reformed Church and the British Methodist, subsequently a Presbyterian Church, now vacant, moved down one hill and up the other to their pres- ent sites. Because of the rapid changes taking place, the tours are be- coming harder and harder to arrange, said Mr. Simpson. Thornhill. however, is one of the few communities which has conserved its old buildings and written records of its history such as Rev. P. Fidler's diary of 1830 as well as letters from a Dr. Mortimer which were pub- ’lished in England. The village is also fortunate, he said, in having a resident, Mrs. Doris Fitzgerald, who has not only spent years searching out and assembling the village's past but has published her find- ings in book form, “Thornhill, an Ontario Village”. The walking tour, the 12th annual one of the society. was under the guidance of B. Nap- ier Simpson Jr., of Deanbank Drive. Thornhill, whose enthusi- asm and skill in presenting the subject was on the level of an art. In his first lecture to the students, Mr. Shooter stres- sed necessary steps that a young person must take in becoming an adult. Prime among these was the devel- opment of heterosexual inâ€" terests. The mentally healthv young person must learn how to relate to another hu- man being. He must recog- nize himself as a sexual hu- man being with drives and needs which must be dealt with appropriately. Topic of the series is "What's Your Image?" First two of the talks are to grade 12 students. on October 26 and November 2. The third lecture is open to the public with parents of seéondary school students particularly invited.

Across the road from the church to the north, a typical frame cottage of the early per- iod was pointed out. It has a two-sided roof with a window on either side of the door in the centre of the front. Mr. Simpson pointed out too that the house on the south-east corner of Elizabeth and Centre had developed from the same rectangular cottage, with a dor- mer added over the front en- trance.

The building’s original' Gothic styles. It is now owned by Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Stephen who graciously permitted the tour to view the interior, in- cluding the basement kitchen with its original fireplace form- erly used for cooking. The group, by this time quite foot-weary and with faces red- dened by sun and wind, ended the tour back at Holy Trinity with a welcome cup of tea. The York Pioneer and Histori- cal Society which sponsored the tour also maintains and oper- ates the Sharon Museum and the Scadding cabin. As well as the tours, the society holds monthly meetings and publishes historical papers. Next stop was the Dutch Re- formed Church at Centre and Elizabeth Streets. Originally erected in 1838 at the top of the hill on the west side of Yonge Street north of the Don River, it was moved to its pres- ent location in 1852 with the roof raised and the bell tower added in 1890. In 1958 the building was sold to the Dutch Reformed Church. Across the road from the church to the north, a typical frame cottage of the early per- iod was pointed out. It has a two-sided roof with a window on either side of the door in the centre of the front. Mr. Simpson pointed out too that uun Vuyud, u; u». u\l\ll\. OF NATIONAL INTEREST Crossing Yonge Street. the next stop was the building known as the Ede home at the corner of Yonge and Jane Streets. Built in the 1840‘s by the same man who built St. Luke‘s Church, Mr. Napier des- cribed it as of national inter- est because of its charming blending of Greek revival and Gothic styles. It is now owned by Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Stephen who graciously permitted the tour to view the interior, in- cluding the basement kitchen with its original fireplace form- erly used for cooking. The group, by this time quite solutions themselves “Tangled Garden" had been painted here and that members of the Group of Seven had vis- ited and worked on the property which is virtually holy ground to devotees of the group. This is the time too when they must develop a phiIOso- phy of life, advised Mr. Shooter. While as young children their behaviour was dictated by the pleasure principle. more and more as adults, their behaviour must be based on a sense of duty and conscience. An adoles- cent must also develop a pro- perly accurate perception of self. To acquire this. the teenager must face up to their problems and work out solutions appropriate to churches and two schools and Thornhill was the most import- ant point north of Toronto. INTERESTING BUILDINGS Holy Trinity Church was the first building viewed by tour members and they were told it was entered from a gate onto the Holy Trinity parking lot. It was noted that J. E. H.

In answer to a QUPS‘iOH put by a student.

Often parents misinterpret this increasing independenre he noted. feeling that the child no longer regards. re- spects or loves them. On the contrary, it is good for chilq- ren to go away from their parents, he said, Crossing the golf club prop- erty. the group climbed the steep hill to the south and view- ed several houses on Colborne Street. including the Gaither Kinkan home which is complete- ly furnished with early Canadi- an furniture. The exterior of St. Luke‘s Roman Catholic church and manse was also viewed. as two years ago by someone who did not know the story. “Life is a matter of.hav- lng problems and going out, to face them". stressed Mr. Shooters He noted that some- times parents prevent young people from solving their own problems and thus keep them immature. Teenagers must become more independ- ent and responsible for their own acts. DONCASTER Correspondent Mrs. E. Ortlieb 38 Lillian Ave. Phone 889-3451 Richmond Hill â€" Elgin T.
