At the recent annual meeting of the House of Concord the board expressed “profound gratitude" to the ladies of the Presbyterian Fortnighters for their long and consistent serv- ice to the school. Each Wed- nesday the ladies go to the school and do mending and sew- ing for the boys, but this was not the chief fact mentioned. It was the friendship shown to the boys and their willingness to listen to them that was so much appreciated. The congregation of Thorn- hill Presbyterian welcomed Dr. and Mrs. Dillwyn Evans back from the 96th General Assem- bly in Halifax (June 7) with a congregational luncheon held on the lawn of the church Sun- day. A presentation was made to Dr. and Mrs. Evans which came with love and affection from the members of the church.

She also accepted dona- tions for the children at Norway House, a United Church Mission centre. Bernice Field opened the program with the prayer “Guiding a Child" and she then read a poem by famous Ameri-l can poet Walt Whitman “A Child Went Forth". “There was a child went forth every day. And the first object he looked upon, that object he became, And that object became part of him for the day or a certain , part of the day. Or for many years or stretching cycles of years. The early lilacs became part of this child. And the apple trees covered with blossoms and the fruit afterward, and wood berries, , and the commonest weeds by ‘ the road. The blow. the quick loud word, the tight bargain, the crafty lure, The family usages, the lang- uage, the company, the fur- niture, the yearling and swel- ling heart. These became part of the child who went forth, every day, and who now goes, and will always go forth every day." The meeting closed with a psalm which was written many years ago by the children of a primary class and with a beauti- ful poem by an uanOWn author entitled “Guiding A Child".

The people are very unhappy. It’s a very serious problem. ' “Developers are donating land that is not suitable for active use. The green belts are very beautiful. but useless for rec- reation activities," said Mr. Muldrew. When land is subdivided into building lots, the owner is re- required to donate five percent of the area for parks. The people of North Thornhill have suddenly come to realize that in the planmng of the commun- ity almost no land was set as1de for athletic fields, Markham Township Planning Board was told last week. Developers fulfilled the requirements for rec- reation land donations. but all the community got were lousy ravine areas that are pleasantly beauti- ful. But these can never be used for baseball or other field sports, Planning Board Member Roy Mu]- drew said. r - - v - Iâ€" v ‘7 â€" â€" I Centre &Y0nge St. ms, Boy Scouts, Lions, Folk Singing, Hamburgers’ SCOttiSh Dances ulation basis. said Mr. Hid- aka. Since the developer had no more land left to give the township. the al- ternative of a money pay- ment in lieu of the land could only now be expected. Mr. Muldrew said getting some money wouldn‘t be much good if there was no land left to buy for sports fields.
