The first stage of Vaughan Township's Cen- tennial project is rapidly taking shape with two of the three libraries planned for the township rapidly nearing completion. The branch library on County Road 7, Kleinburg is almost complete while the second branch at Pear- son Avenue and Scott Drive in Richvale is well under- way. It is expected that both buildings will be com- pleted some time next month. Final stage of the project will be the erection of a main library in Maple at Merino Road at Goodman Cres. which is scheduled for completion next spring. All three buildings Were designed by G. Vanderfleet. the township's building and zoning administrator. The first library in Vaughan Township was op- ened in 1949 at Kleinburg. This was an association li- brary, a type started when libraries were not consid- ered a public necessity and funds were raised by sub- scriptions and donations from individuals and groups. For the past six years this library has operâ€" ated under the charge of Mrs. P. Thomas of Klein- burg and in June, 1965 it was taken over by Vaughan Township and operated as a public library. The township‘s second li- brary was opened in Maple in 1957. This was a public library and was run by the Village of Maple but with financial problems. In June 1965 it too became part of the municipality’s Guides and Brownies Ruth Reesoi and Beth Nash ac- Albion Hills Conservation companied 10 Concord Guides Area u as the site for a it ondex- and 11 Bro“ nies. fut time of outdoor nature study They enjoyed nature hikes. a last weekend.

Township residents liv- ing outside Maple and Kleinburg have had no free local library and have only been able to use public lib- raries by paying an out-of- town subscription, although some were considered elig- ible for library membership in municipalities in which they worked. When as its Centennial project, Vaughan Township decided to co-ordinate the existing libraries and ex- pand them into a township system, a library board was established. J. C. Mat- thews, Goodman Cresc. Maple, is now its chairman. Other members of the board are Reeve A. H. Rutherford, RR 2 Wood- bridge: Mrs. M. Auld, RR 1 Maple, Mrs. V.

Spears, Roosevelt Drive, Thornhill and D. S. Thom- as, Kleinburg. Mel Lyons, Keele Street, Maple, is secretary-treasurer of the board. The library board has asked for the support of all residents of the township in equipping and operating the libraries and has indi- cated that suggestions, do- nations and all information about readers’ tastes will be appreciated by both members of the board and of library staffs.

THE CHARTERED BANKS SERVING YOU AND YOL'R COMMENITY I mentioned in Bell Lines last month how Canadians today seem to have taken to the open road to travel and enjoy their own country during vacation time. Perhaps we are becoming a nation of people on the move, for more than ever people seem to move from one community to another, or to different homes within a community. To former generations who seemed to look upon moving as a chore to be undertaken only when absolutely necessary we must seem like a nation of Arabs who fold our tents and steal away â€" constantly if not stealthily. Many things can make a move go more easily and smoothly. The telephone Just about heads the list. Before a more the telephone seems in constant use, helping to speedily check on the hundreds of last-minute chores. On arriv- ing at a new home, the telephone is almost the first thing you need, to again save time in establishing your- self in a new community. You’d wear yourself out run- ning all the errands that the telephone does so effort- lessly and quickly. We at Bell Canada know what a help the telephone can be at moving time and do our best to install your telephone as quickly as possible. Although it may take our installer only a few minutes to get your telephone in working order the “behind the scenes" de- tails require much planning. Considerable work must also be done in our switching units to provide you with this takenâ€"for-granted service. Please, give us a call just as soon as you know when and where you will be moving. That way we can plan our work, clear up all the details and avoid any delay in serving you in your new address. by w. R.
