The Mexican markets fas- cinated Fiona Stanton of Newmarket and Ruthanne Snider of Langstafl. who ob- served. "Mexican markets are a conglomerate of family business on rented ground where they sell everything from jewellery to baby cas- kets â€" when a turista has decided upon an article â€"« the vendor will state his price. Through experience we found the stated price is usually twice the expected price. It is only the novice buyer who will pay the stat- ed price. Through bickering and haggling, a price is us- ually agreed upon that is pleasing to both parties in- volved.“ “In Mexico the flies buzz around the food being cook- ed by greasy. grimy hands.

"The people did not seem unhappy. They loved bright colors and sunshine and they enjoy living. bartering and excitement. It is a cross- section of life that everyone should witness because it is is preparing for the hunt. it is a ritual still performed by the Yagui Indians who live in the land of their forefath- ers and make a living in the same manner.

"Therefore the castle is not only an historical build- ing. but also an historical book. This is true for many other buildings as well." ob- serves Betty Walsh. From September to the end of March claims for more than 335.000 were filed. trustees were told at a meeting of the board on May 11. About 23.900 stu- dents were enrolled in the plan. and premiums totalling $55,000 had been paid. It is board policy that stu- dents wishing to take part in competitive sports or go on field trips must present proof of student accident insurance as well as the provincial plans of- fered by Ontario Hospital In- surance and OHSIP. A staff report stated that there has been some misunder- standing on the part of the par- ents with the advent of OHSIP on October 1. 1969. Commented Trustee Meme Colbourne of the Town of Markham. “This is an under- statement." The main benefit of the school plan. said Markham Township Trustee Louise Aim- one is for dental work which is of theinpt covered by the provinciial Arguments between sellers and Mexican customers can go on for several hours, the girls observed. but the “turâ€" ista" is generally pleased if he thinks he has "beaten" the vendor. Nevertheless they found the markets better than city shops for bargains and Yor authentic native products. "Mexico is a world of con- trast: dirty and clean. color- ful and dowdy. but the real contrast is‘ between the rich and the poor.“ reports Lorie Wells of Langstaff. "The rich are the smaller class and live on a- level of their own, keeping the dis- tmction between them and the lmver class. The poor are the ones the tourists have more confrontation with. for they are every- where." It also offers benefits in the case of accidental death and for chiropractic treatment and other services not provided by OHSIP pointed out Business Superintendent George Ford. Three plans are available un-' der board agreement with a pri- vate company. The first gives coverage 24 hours a day 365 days a year and casts $3 a year. The second gives 24 hour cov- erage except for the summer holiday period and cost $2. The third plan, which costs $1 a year. restricts coverage to school activities on or off the school property and accidents that occur when the student is ‘on his way to or from school: Lorie was startled to not- ice the lack of concern for cleanliness in the market places. “In Mexico the flies buzz around the food being cook- ed by greasy. grimy hands.

The rendering of “Aquarius†dragged somewhat, due more to the arrangement than the performers. Gordon Adnams, accompanied by Louise Deacon, gave two euphonium solos, and Bruce Brown, on trumpet, played “Portrait of a Trumpetâ€, accomp- anied on piano by Christine Burnett. The audience was appreciative of Brenda Had- dock’s fine vocal performance. The well known “Tonightâ€, “Stranger In Paradise†and Shubert’s “Ave Maria†were well suited to her voice. Dave Laurenson was her accompanist. The string group has been fortunate in having had the encouragement and tuition of George Szabo formerly first violinist with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.

FROM LITTLE ACORNS This is Lois Hancey’s seventh year as counp cillor in Richmond Hill. As with many politicians, the beginning was unique and the end result was not deliberately planned. V “I felt I didn’t have sufficient interests,†said Lois,†“so I looked around for something construe. tire to do. I enrolled in a Red Cross home nursing course held in Willowdale. I thought the knowledge would prove handy in raising my family. While there, I happened to fill out a card which posed the question, ‘What can you contribute by way of experience?’ “All I could do was swim,†said Mrs. Hancey, “so that was what I put on the card.†The upshot of this was that she was called by John Passmore and Bill Hamilton of the Red Cross to take over their summer water safety program Mrs. Hancey took up the challenge, fully backed by Lionel and the boys. She recalled that these were pre-Centennial Pool days and that she was largely instrumental in arranging for 300 children, plus transportation, to receive 16 lessons at Thornhill Swimming Pool. Volunteer mothers acted as super- visors. (Continued from Page 2) the government of the country or by doing some- thing in a physical. financial or artistic way . . . or just by simply helping in the neighborhood.†Lois attributes her interrupted education at Queen‘s University for part of the political impetus. She studied political science for a year and spent much time in political discussion. Rambling Around “fetid-Q'ng ‘Queen’s. she worked for Bell Canada as a service representative and became interested in the methods and procedures of collective bargain. ing. tained this attitude of political inquiry. She has a cherished memory of Agnes Mac. Phail. Though she was only a small girl. she. along with her family. felt the fascination of this admir- able parliamentarian. Many people still talk about her. “Miss MacPhail cared about people,†said Mrs. Hancey, “just as Lex Mackenzie did . . . as most real politicians do. Agnes MacPhail made it her job to hear what people said to her and she did her best for them.†n... “Finally when Lion Cliff Bennett came forward and said the pool could be financed by a drive for funds. the town council decided to back the Lions. Lionel and I knew that they couldn’t raise sufficient money by public subscription, but we determined to get behind the campaign and help. We suggested that they apply for at Centennial grant from the provincial and federal governments. By that time I was elected to council.†Mrs. Hancey is still on council and enjoying the ‘ work immensely. She sums up her satisfactions and her hopes for the future. One of the bigger events according to Coun- cillor Hancey was the confrontation with former Federal Minister of Forestry Maurice Sauve over the decision to move the federal forestry research station from Maple to Sault Ste. Marie. In her ‘ opinion, forestry research has been put back years and a number of knowledgeable research men have either gone into teaching or have left the country because they didn’t want to live in Sault Ste. Marie. Through representation on the regional library ‘ board, Richmond Hill became a resource centre in . the regional library system representing the Coun- ties of Peel, York and Ontario. “We don’t live as an island to ourselves any- ‘ more,†said the councillor. “I feel I have brought this fact home to council a little more clearly. What happens in Brampton and Mississauga and other localities does have an effect on what happens in Richmond Hill. I believe council has been looking ouctward in the past six years more than they ever di .†“I could see that there was a very real need for Richmond Hill youngsters to have a swimming pool of their own, so my husband and I began campaign- ing for it. We drew up a brief and took it to the town council. “Walter Scudds was one councillor who said he would look into it and a committee was appointed. But for reasons of their own. and which we didn’t appreciate. they kept putting off the issue. THE HILL IS NOT AN ISLAND ANYMORE During the past six years many things have been achieved by town council. “There are the smaller improvements like parks and roads, the establishment of the fire department and better ambulance service. The establishment of the†Centennial Swim« ming Pool was a great satisfaction despite the long delay. And last but not least, Councillor Hancey has the satisfaction of being able to represent the female population of the area in striving for some balance ‘of the legislative power. PRIORITIES A LA HANCEY The councillor asserts fearlessly her desires for the future. “I hope,†she said, "that regional government can be set aside until the provincial government recognizes its responsibility and restructures the municipal tax system.
