Still in the throes of unpacking, they were interrupted by a visit from a Mr. and Mrs. Alan Johnston and their three child- ren from England. The Johns- tons have been on the road in their travelling home for two years and had been given the Olleys’ name and address by a cousin of Mr. Olley before they left.

The)" are now on their way down to Mex- ico and may go on to Australia. The first meeting of the home and school aSSociation will be held October 4 at Joseph Gib- son School beginning at 8:15 It is nice to see Brian Robin- son back at this school after an absence of four years. He taught grade 4, here in 1961 and grade 5 in 1962. Now he is back as principal and also helping teach grade 6. His last [four years were spent as princi- ;pal of Elder Mills School, QVaughan Township. This meeting is to be “Meet'Children’s Movie The Teachers Night”.

The movie will be shown child’s teacher to a classroom‘twice, at 6:30 and again at 8:30. One of the most interesting of the outward appearance of the school, is the bell on the roof above the 'main door. How nice it is to hear its familiar ring each day again after too long an absence. The bell is one of the remaining features of the school when it was built in 1931 as a one room school house.

A A. A Recently in “The Liberal” there haVe been reports about‘ a proposed swimming pool by- law. Your correspondent was chatting with Vaughan Township Councillor Dave Eraser recent- ly and he feels quite strongly about this matter. He says he finds it strange that it is neces- sary to legislate ordinary sen- sible safety. If you are plan- ning a swimming pool, you will be interested in the require- ments of child proof fence. Cubs where the teacher will briefly outline what she or he expects to do in the school year and also what is expected of the children in that class. This night affords the par- ents a “underful opportunity, early in the school year, to meet the teachers and get a better understanding of what is being done in the classroom. The home and school asso- ciation in town is a joint‘ dr- ganization for both the junior and senior schools. Member- ship for a family for the year is one dollar and this entitles the member to a vote on any motions put forth during the school year. Membership fees will be accepted at the door at this initial meeting.

It is nice to hear that Larry Price is now starting his 12th year working with Scouts in this area. As Larry Price is taking over only temporarily as Scoutinast- er for Dr. Grainger, he would appreciate all the assistance he can obtan from fathers in the neighborhood. His daily occu- pation requires him to work very long hours, looking after 93 carrier boys in connection with a Toronto daily, so there- fore any fathers willing to help with the Scouts at this time, would be most appreciated. Fathers or both parents are also welcome to come and look in on the boys and their activi- ties during Scout meetings.

CARL HEDER TEMPLE 3-5-10] A group representing most of the business es- tablishments in Maple ap- peared at last week's meet- ing of Vaughan Township Council to protest a pro- posed parking ban on Keele Street between the hours of 7 am and 7 pm. The township’s works committee headed by Maple Councillor Dalton McAJ‘thur had recom- mended such a ban in its report to council and in fact a bylaw had been pre- pared and was to be passed at Monday's meeting, pro- hibiting parking during those hours. Previously, council had considered, and at one time was prepared to pass. a bylaw banning parking on the newly-reconstructed MeetI Your Candidate for Queen’s Park §$<§§S$S WORKER FOR YOUTH Don Deacon is concerned With the needs of youth.

Seek New Survey Challenge 0F Cancer THE Keele Street 24 hours. This was strenuously opposed by several residents who felt that their friends should be able to park in front of their homes dur- ing the evening. The businessmen feel that their firms will suffer from a parking ban during daylight hours. As a result, council agreed to ask the Ontario Department of Transport to make a study of the sit- uation with a view to es- tablishing parking regula- tions. The department pre- viously did a study of the intersection of Keele Street and Maple Road (Richmond Street) and said that a crOSSing guard was not necessary at the intersec- tion.
