Origin of the fire was undetermined but an investi- gation will be carried out since the barn was not equipped with electricity. “Three Little Bears" Spotted On August 26, four boys. four girls, their teacher and a friend set out for Pog Lake, Algonquin Park and a four-day camping trip.

The first meeting of St. Paul’s UCW for the coming season will be on September 15 and Lime Sewage Treatment Process To Be Installed In Newmarket Last year the Ontario Water Resources Commission ‘had‘ highly satisfactory results in experiments with lime con- ducted at the Richmond Hill sewage treatment plant. The lime is added at the initial set- tling stage of treatment and re- ductions of over 92% of the phosphorus content of the sew- age were achieved as well as elimination of significant amounts of organic nitrogen. Phosphorus and nitrogen are two nutrients, contained in municipal sewage, critically asâ€" sociated with the development of algae in some watercourses. An excess of algae can adversely affect aquatic life and lead to the development of nuisance conditions. Conventional sec- ondary treatment removes only about 39% of phosphorus. This new treatment will be installed this fall by the OWRC at the Newmarket-East Gwillim- bury Water Pollution Control ‘(sewage treatment) Plant. During the Richmond Hill trials it was found that, be- sides reducing the phosohorus and nitrogen content of sew- age, the lime process markedly increased the efficiency of the entire treatment system. The Newmarket-East Gwillim- bury installation is to serve as a research facility for further development and refinement of the process. The added facilities are being constructed to pro- vide such flexibility that all or any part of the sewage flow can receive the nutrient removal treatment. The Newmarket plant utilizes the conventional activated sludge sewage treat- ment process and has a design capacity of two million gallons a day. The commission began pre- liminary investigations into methods for nutrient removal in 1956 and intensive investiga- tions in 1964. An aggressive new program to curb discharge of nutrients to provincial watercourses has been initiated by OWRC. Ini- tially it will concentrate on Lime played an important role in early methods of sewage treatment but its full value in the nutrient removal process was unrecognized and it fell into disuse as modern methods of treatment were developed. Starting up the new pre- fabricated concrete components plant near Stouffville this year has resulted in a loss for the owners. Plant Loses $336,159 Opening At Stouffville Jespersen-Kay Systems Ltd. of Toronto had a loss of $336,159 in the first half of this year. compared with a profit of $5,732 in the first half of last year. Promotion of the company’s building system in North America accounted for about 3140.000 of the loss in addition to 5130.000 for starting up the plant. Balance of the loss is attributed to the establishment of a US. subsidiary.

The wage dispute has gone to arbitration for the second year in a row. The police are asking for a 25% pay increase. to a rate of $10,250 plus fringe bene- fits per year for first class constables. Committee Chairman and Councillor Gordon Rowe de- nied the police allegation that legal fees during nego- tiations last year cost the very generous, higher than in surrounding municipali- ties. The police don't agree. The offer was for a $920 increase, “During these five years we've improved the stand- ards of our police. Now they have to have grade 12 in- stead of grade 10 to join police.

East Gwillimbury Deputy- reeve Ray Twinney and former Newmarket Councillor Tom Taylor will run for the town’s second seat on the regional council. Mr. Taylor sat on town council for five years prior to 1967. Deputy-reeve Eves may also be in the run- ‘ning for this seat, or he may ‘decide to run for a seat on the township untold thousands of dollars. Legal fees for the services of Toronto Solicitor Norman Matthews amounted to $1,800, while last year’s wage arbitration court ap- peal saved the township $50,- 000, said Councillor Rowe. Mr. Matthews will again represent the township dur- ing arbitration this year. Last year the township ap- pealed the arbitration award of King City fuel oil dealer Stan Roots and won conces- sions from the police nego- tiators in an out-ofâ€"court settlement. Otherwise extra police personnel would have been hired, among other things. “Kppealing actually saved us a lot of money," said Mr. Rowe.

He said the local police cite higher Ontario Provin- cial Police pay in their argu- ments. pointing to the pro- vincial $1,226 pay hike. “But the OPP have no as- surance of a permanent local residence and are subject to being moved around. This should be worth something to the local constables," Mr. Rowe said.
