Following Lord Durham's re- port on the situation in the two Canadas, the reserves were sold and the money received from them was distributed amongst the affected munici- palities in 1852, as an aid to education. Some municipalities, including Richmond Hill, spent the money in providing school buildings. but King Township invested the money, the annual interest being turned over to local school boards. Vaughan Township's clergy reserves monies are also intact. having been invested for well over a century, the annual in- terest being used for educa- tional purposes by the local school boards. George S. Henry was born in King Township in 1871, son of William Henry who operated a lumber mill west of Snowball. i‘lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllKilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll\llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll'1’ , UN A Barometer 0f Opinion: Roberts; The real value of the United Nations is not to be found in the seven commit- tees that carry out the effec- tive work of the organiza- tion. but rather in the fact that the United Nations pro- vides a forum for the ex- change of ideas. This is the conclusion that John Roberts MP York Sim- coe, has come to after watch- ing the UN in action as a parliamentary observer. Mr. Roberts comments in a despatch from the UN. “The day to day contact of the diplomats of 120 coun- tries provides a real baro- meter to the international political scene.

It is at the UN that it is easiest to gather quickly a concensus of views on what is happening in international affairs. Mr. Roberts adds. These views are communi- cated back to home govern- ments, so that it is in this way that the UN has a real role in shaping the policy of member governments. The UN Assembly starts each session in September with a general debate. which enables governments to pre- and. annual community Hallowe‘en party.

Bar- bara Jean, who is now about a month old. Born at York Cen- tral Hospital. this sister for Starr and Tina weighed in at 8 lbs. 14 ounces. The "Thursday Club" will get under way in November and continue every second Thurs- day at St. Paul‘s United Church for the over middle- aged of the community. They enjoy games of cribbage. cards. dominoes and sitting and chat- ting. If interested, please call Mrs. Shirley Day. Birthday greetings are ex- sent the principles of their foreign policies. With over 100 nations taking part. the debate inevitably becomes repetitious. the MP says. The real work of the world body is done in seven com- mittees. dealing with such matters as economic aid. dis- armament. human rights. colonialism. administration. legal problems and special political questions. An outsider. Mr. Roberts thinks. is likely to find the LN committee meetings a frustrating process. Each country‘s spokesman is al- lowed a wide latitude in dis- cussion. and is also allowed to reply to the speeches of other delegates. a right that is frequently exercised. In spite of an extreme $2.750. Lion Stan Roots was this year‘s convenor and Lion Gordon Orr was chief auctioneer. Not to be outdone by her husband. Mrs. Stan Roots convened the ladies’ bake sale and raised $123 in only 12 minutes. A cider stand was a popular concession as was the Hallowe’en pumpkin sale by a Cub pack. Proceeds will be used for welfare and youth projects and development of the new township park in the village. A picnic pavilion is being completed there by the 40 Lions who were all actively engaged in conduct- ing the auction. Articles which found ready buyers. who vied for ownership. included a Cape Cod lighter, an antique leatherworker’s vise. 3 Ray- mond treadle sewing mach- ine. piles of mattresses. numerous hand - powered lawn mowers of all sizes and vintages and a gener- ous supply of old car tires. formality in discussion. com- mittee chairmen find it very difficult to cut off discussion when the speaker represents a sovereign country. “Sometimes the delegates get puffed up with their own importance." The imposing architecture of the UN buildings and the beauty of their site on the East River dominate first impressions of the organiza. tion. the MP says. The at- mosphere within the build- ing he finds one of “quiet. elegance." although he is conscious of a feeling of overcrowding due to the fact that UN membership has doubled “'lthln the last twenty years. and facilities have not kept pace with the expansion llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllullIlllllllmllllllllImuullllllllllllllllIlllllnllllhllllllllllIlullllllllllllllllllllllli|lllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll‘i‘ White - Jennings :Temperanceville Temperanceville U n i t e d Church was decorated with wine and pink gladioli for the early autumn wedding of Diana Rose- maI’Y. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ewart B.

She was assisted by the mother of Puppy Breeder Fined Heavily The practice of a Gormley puppy ranch owner of using the noseprint of one dog on more than 75 pedigree papers to “save time" proved costly in Newmarket Magistrate's Court recently. Leo Zonnekeyn, owner of The ‘Puppy Ranch on Don Mills Road, north of Gormley, was fined a total of $600 on 12 charges of issuing false infor- mation under the livestock lpedigree act. In sentencing Zonnekeyn. Magistrate 0. S. Hollinrake de- scribed the practice as “lazy, illegal and unlawful." Twelve identical charges against Mrs. Clair Zonnekeyn were dismissed. She stated that because of a nervous break- down she didn‘t know what her husband had been doing. According to evidence, Zon- nekeyn selected a tame dog, took a batch of nose prints from it, and put them on applications for pedigree papers sent to Ot- tawa for approval. The use of a tame puppy avoided the time and difficulty of getting prints from trouble- some puppies, he claimed. Own- ers were in a hurry to get their pedigrees and he obliged by speeding up the process. (Nose prints are used to iden- tify dogs in the same way as fingerprints are used to iden- tify people). Zonnekeyn, who disclosed the ranch grossed $50,000 a year, also admitted signing his wife’s name on many of the applica- tions. Charges were laid following a raid on the puppy ranch by the RCMP, who seized 150 nose prints. many of which were3 later found to be identical. King City Notes King Branch of the Canadian Cancer Society will hold a work meeting November 4 at the home of Mrs. D. S. Head, Hol- lingsworth Drive, King City.

The presentation, for de- votion to duty and faithful service, was made at the annual Hallowe‘en Dance of the Whitchurch Police Association held at Cedar Beach, Musselman’s Lake. The medal, resembling a silver dollar and suspended on a blue ribbon. was pin~ ned on the chief by Deputy- reeve Lawrence Hennessey, chairman of the township police committee. Some 300 people were at the dance to see the award made. Chief Constable Mason has been chief of police in the township since the de- partment was formed in 1964. He left his position as police chief of Southamp- ton. Ontario, to set up the new department in Vandorf. Previously.

Formed From Merger The Central Ontario, Water- loo and Lambton Cattle Breed- ing Associations have merged to form United Breeders In- corporated. A well is being drilled at a site three miles north of Guelph in preparation for the construc- tion of a combined office and laboratory building. which is now in the final planning stages. Until the building is com- pleted. the three breeding as- sociations will continue to op- erate from their present offices at Maple. Waterloo and Wyom- ing. Ontario. They are expected to use their existing bull barns for some time. The proposal to merge was approved by the members of all three associations early in 1968. Preliminary steps towards the United Breeders merger were taken as far back as 1959, when the Waterloo and Central units pooled ownership of Jer- sey and Angus bulls. In 1963 they pooled sires of all breeds, along with sire analysis and information services. Lambton joined the sire pool early in 1967. The units have a provisional‘ board of 15 breeders â€" one from each county to be serviced, by the new organization â€"â€"‘ carrying out the planning for1 United Breeders. 1 These men and various com- mittees will assume full respon-' sibility for the operation of the new unit after November 1. President of the board is H. Craig Reid of Milton, vice- president is Jack Gilchrist of Guelph. psi-0.0.0.0.-- KING Correspondent “The Liberal” requires a‘ correspondent for King.‘ If you enjoy serving your, community and want to. earn some extra money then phone Staff Writer Mary Dawson at 884-1105.| .0.-0.0.o.0.0.0.0.0-1K . >0 l ll\lllllllllllllli‘l!!‘lllllIlllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll' V.
