S. 884-1105 18 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, Feb. 8, 1968 to produce an eye- catching business letterhead capable of sparking sales. Count on our skill The Liberal These were years of growing responsibility in the township and the struggle to keep things on an even keel was constant. In describing this period, Councillor Hoover pays tribute to “the people who helped me stand my ground.” The beautiful Centennial Medal with its red and white ribbon and the.citation. which accompanied it are prized possessions which will hold Markham Township. In addition to his other duties, Mr. I:Ioover became welfeie-officer for the township in 1936 with Mrs. Marie Rae as his assistant. This office he held until 1962 when he was re-elected to council as representative for Ward 3. Late in 1934, Mr. Hoover was appointed treasurer and tax collector for the township and in 1935, following the death of Clerk G. A. M. Davison of Unionvillejhhe became clerk-treasurer, a post he held until 1958. Charles Hoover, Markham Township’s senior councillor, last week received a prized award -â€" Canada’s Centennial Medal, awarded for distinguished service to the nation. Sometimes referred to as “The Senator” in council circles, Mr. Hoover was first elected to council in 1933 long before the present ward system was instituted. In that year, George Paget was reeve, Robert Smith deputy-reeve and councillors were W. L. Clark, Fred Coakwell and Mr. Hoover. The next year, 1934, Mr. Hoover polled the highest number of votes in the election.
