At their June 18 meeting, council authorized Councillor Betty Van Nostrand to present the prize cheques to the winners in their classrooms during school hours. The present council decided something more was needed. “We should have something that's really Whitchurch.” Mrs. Van Nostrand said. School children all over the area were invited to submit de- signs of crests suitable to repre- sent the township. The winning crest is a shield divided into four sections. with a banner beneath it reading “Township of Whitchurch". The dove and olive branch are featured in the design. “Hopefully we will adopt it as our official seal." said Mrs. Van Nostrand.

When a Stouffville woman applied to the Whitchurch Pol- ice for a licence to drive a taxi in Whitchurch Township, it caused quite a stir at the June 25 council meeting.

The final meeting of the Un- ited Church boys club for the season was held June 28. The fuss was not because it was a woman who applied, nor was it a matter of competition. There is only one licensed cab in Whitchurch now, and it is in Oak Ridges. Church News Whitchurch Taxi Force Doubles With New Stouffville Driver Police Chief Fred Mason ex- plained that a licence was $8 and there was an additional charge of $2 for every driver other than the owner. Council- lor Robert Lewis, in thinking over these figures, found them to be far too reasonable. “I think council should review this whole thing.” he suggested. Rather, the council could not agree on the cost of a licence. Mr. Mason pointed out that by a- Whitchurch bylaw, taxis were required to display special metal plates identifying them, and they were to receive the plates when they were granted a licence. This practice was discontinued, he said, when it was discovered that the cost of First, my congratulations to John Roberts and best wishes for his success in his new reâ€" sponsibilities as our federal representative in Ottawa. representative in Ottawa. In spite of the federal elec- tion making this a short work week at Queen‘s Park. we re- ceived some interesting reports. The first was from the Ontario Hydro. Robert Boyer. MLA and second vice chairman of the commission stated that all of our water power sites are ex- hausted except the James Bay watershed. However, Ontario Hydro must plan and construct generating plants with the cap- acity to meet power demands, which have doubled every 11 years for the past 40 years. It will accomplish this primarily through the use of a combina- tion of nuclear power and coal: burning generating stations. A committee of 24 has worked since June, 1965 to compile the findings and recommendations that make up the report. A total of 112 briefs were received. Public hearings were held, and teams were sent to study the educational systems in many parts of the United States and in several countries in Europe and the Orient. It is a most complete study of the aims and objectives of education in On- tario. and the needs of our chil- dren. There are 258 recommend- ations in it, but it remains to be seen how many of these will be implemented. * >k * 1k If you have no definite plans A for your holiday. perhaps you Another report we were < given was a review of Ontario's : industrial gains in 1967. I‘ll‘e briefly summarize the high- lights. ( A A Goods and services produced 5 in Ontario rose over one and“ one half billion dollars. This»; accounted for more than 40 per e cent of Canada‘s Gross Nationaliél Product. The automotive indus-@ try. chiefly located in Ontariqu surpassed wheat and forest pro-‘4 ducts as Canada's largest export { industry. { Mineral production was up 25 per cent, and the gross value of Ontario's farm production came to almost a billion and a half dollars. Ontario's labor force grew by four percent. We now have a labor force of two million seven hundred thousand. The list‘of achievements goes on and on. But the main feat- ures I derived from the report is that Ontario is the richest and most progressive province in Canada. In keeping with the progres- sive spirit. I would like to com- ment further on the Hall-Den- nis Report on education. which I was able to read this week in its entirety. This exciting TEMPERANCEVILLE NEWS Correspondent: Mrs. W. G.

"If there are only two taxis in the township, we don't have to worry about needing special plates to identify them." stated Councillor Lewis, The bylaw concerning the plates was duly noted down for review, but not before someone mentioned that it was not likely to be attended to for at least three weeks. “Let's not hold up issuing the licence for that long,” Council- lor Norman Barnard objected. “But we don't want to issue the licence just before we raise the fee." said Reeve Stewart Burnett. After a discussion as to how high the fee should go, the council members decided that it should be left as is until the new year. They agreed to issue the licence to the Stouffville woman subject to a medical re- port.
