The author says of the novel, “This tale is fiction embroider- ed on a historical patchwork". The period is set between the time of the Battle of Bavin- chove in 1071 and the Seige of Mont St. Michael in 1091 and the main character is Walter Tirel. Survival during the 11th Cen- tury in Normandy is portrayed in all its gallantry, misery. and historical purpose as Tirel be- friends the sons of William The Conqueror and becomes in- vol\7ed m‘th Isobel of Conches. Treachery and loyalty. love and whorery. cowardice and bravery all blend together into a tale of days gone by. In the cool lower room of the King Township Library. Mrs. Bernice Ellis Tuesday of last week enchanted the children with the second program of “Castles And Stories". This time it was “Castles And Stories from Arabia” and she told the story of the Sultan and his Princess and the 1001 Nights. From this beginning. she. went on to the tale of Aladdin and the Magic Cave and the Magic Lamp. After the stories the children were invited to continue with the building of their castle creations with the craft ma- terials provided. The 210 pages are filled with numerous encounters of pas- sionate expeditions of love and war with visions of knights en- compassing its theme. Mrs. Helen McBratney. form- er member of the weaving group is now home from the hospital after undergoing a spinal fusion operation at the end of April. She misses King- crafts very much and would like to hear from some of her old friends. Here address isâ€"208 Frost Street, Smith‘s Falls, On- tario.

He said, however, he wasn't objecting to the amount of money involved. which was “just peanuts." but to the “principle of the thing." The latter he said involved a small amount. of weeds on his 63 acres of land, which had been cut by the township in Septem- ber of last year. and which he had only been billed for this April. Dr. Lawee said the weed in- spector had listed the time spent cutting to be eight hours. This didn‘t seem reasonable when only four hours had been required the year before. Council turned down a re quest from Dr. Lawee that he present a witness from the neighboring property who could set council straight on property boundaries, which he felt had become confused by the weed cutters. Weed Inspector Carman Til- son, who visited the property in August, 1971. described the weeds as “the worst patch of thistles I’ve seen anyplace." He said they were five feet high and thick â€" “like trees growing there." Mr. 'I‘ilson presented pictures to council, purporting to show the weeds on the property in question, causing Mayor Ken Mactaggart to exclaim that he was "tempted to get. an axe" to cut them down. Councillor Ben Rough said that “if the owner would take care of his property, he wouldn't need to spend his time here." He said he "was satisfied' that the charges made for cut‘ ting the weeds were justified. “I'm not satisfied.’ told council as he like Eaton’s â€"- you service if you're on t than by coming down The Toronto Flying CASTLES AND STORIES Community Life In King City Area KING CITY, OAK RIDGES “The Liberal" is always pleased to publish ite interest regarding people and events in the Oak E Lake Wilcox and King City districts.

Gormley RR 1, was honored recently for his work on the Vandorf Commun- ity Centre Board and the Whit- church - Stouffville Recreation Committee. He was presented with an engraved gavel, suit- ably mounted. Mr. Paine sub- mitted his resignation from both ,positions several weeks ago for health reasons. But he will be constantly re- minded of the work in which he took [an active part every time he passes the Vandorf Park, a rural playground second to none. Seven years ago the area was little more than a 10-acre weed patch when several citizens, including Councillor Betty Nos- trand and Mr. Paine went to‘ work. They raised money for the project through many events which were successful. Members of the Vandorf Parks Committee formed by these concerned people planted flow- ers and trees, constructed picnic tables, cut, clipped and painted, until, out of chaos, order ap- peared and the park became a most attractive place indeed. “The Liberal" is always pleased to publish items of interest regarding people and events in the Oak Ridges - Lake Wilcox and King City districts.

We hope that the response to ticket sales in King for the arena lottery are better than in Maple-Kleinburg for the Maple arena. Their first draw is July 28 and only 528 tickets have been sold out of the 1000 tickets offered. Residents should consider the fact that if they don't buy a ticket on the King Lottery, and take a chance on winning a cash prize, the outstanding debt on the arena could become next year‘s tax in- crease in Ward I.

The road was so bad Mr. Lipchey had been unable to get to his land to work it. and felt he shouldn't have to pay taxes. Councillor Van Luyk said. Council should have known the condition of the road last year and done something about it.

As a mem- ber of the road committee. Mr. Van Luyk should have known what the position was on main- taining these roads without rais- ing it at a public meeting. However, his prolonged absence from council, both through illness and holidays, prevented him from being up to date. Also, Councillor Wilson said. “you should be ashamed of yourself for chastising the en- gineer. . . . It was completely out of order."
