It was a delightful ‘occasion. There were a number Iof three generation families i‘there. and the church was fil- jled. The carols were particul- arly well sung, and lovely ones to sing. The junior choir. with Bill Priestman on the guitar, ‘sang such cheerful‘ modern carols, and the senior choir :was a joy to listen to. Graham Upcraft is the organist. ‘ The Thornhill Baptist and United churches presented the traditional Anglican “Service of the Nine Lessons". This was given at the United Church December 12, and at the Bapâ€" ‘tist on December 19. The Scripâ€" ture passages were read by _members of the congregation of the church at which the ser- ‘vice took place. It was a candle- ;light service, with beautiful singing and lovely carols. There was a quintet. and a duct. and on one selection Elaine Da ‘Costa accompanied with a flute. The children‘s service on De- cember 19, at Christ the King Lutheran Church, began with a congregational pot luck sup- per, organized by the Women of the Church, Mrs. Gisela Neit- zert convenor. At 6:30 the children present- ed a pageant written by Mrs. Ruth Boothby and Bruce Mac- pherson. The title was “The Christ Child Today” and relat- ed the coming of Christ to His statement of His mission and our mission. Frank Neitzert and John Boothby were narrat- ors. Cathy Keffer. Gregory Hamlen, Linda Sehaefer and Maureen Neitzert played the leads. The rest of the Sunday school represented angels. shepâ€" herds and the other characters. Instead of the usual white gifts, money was presented in white boxes for the families which ai'e‘to be moved in India. This is the "Love Compels Ac- tion" campaign. On the previous Sunday the church held a youth service. Doug Macpheison and Heather Keffer presented two modern sacred songs: “There Is Love." and "Take Me Home On Coun- try Roads." The scripture pas- sages were read by Werner Brockbeck, Frank Neitzert and Karl Miller. There was a carol sing for everybody.

Trustees have repeatedly protested location of a school at the junction of two railway lines. But. pointed out Markham Trustee John MacKay, if the 50-acre subdivision for condominium town- houses and high-rise apartments, is approved by the Municipal Board, the board must provide school accommodation. Two of the plans will not call for new schools. There will be room for the new students in existing schools or in a school now under con- struction. The third at Bayview Avenue and John Street the board is accepting because it has no alternative. It was agreed that Markham Town Council and the Department of Education should be in- formed that cost of construction of a school in such a location will be considerably higher than construction of a school in a quieter area. Trus- tees have counted 28 trains a day using the CNR Bala line and CNR bypass which intersect at the southeast corner of the school site. Staff was directed to study noise levels.at the school site and to prepare a report indicatmg what techniques and costs will be required to Plans for three subdivisions that will bring school children into the Thornhill area were con- sidered by York County Board of Education at its meeting December 13.

Students that will be moving into 74 single family homes planned for a 16.9 acre subdivision at Bayview Fairways north of Bayview Country Club will be accommodated at the Bayview Fair- ways School now under construction, at Wood- lands Senior School and at Thornlea Secondary School. An addition to Thornlea will be ready for use inSeptember 1972. The school now has 13 portable classrooms: Cost of providing classroom space for the subdivision is estimated at $179,900. There will be no need for a new school to serve a 7.7 acre subdivision on Henderson Avenue between Clark Avenue and the CNR bypass, staff reported. The plan is for nine single family and 46 semi-detached houses which will bring in about 66 elementary school pupils and 19 of secondary school age. These, staff reported, can be accom- modated at E. J. Sand School, Woodland Senior School and Thornhill Secondary School. Cost of this accommodation is estimated at $186,200.
