It is regarded as a beauty spot of the world. The Weavers were impress- ed by the beauty and the feeling of peace in the shrines and the gardens with- in a country torn by so much conflict for so many years. “It symbolizes the unity of religion and race and the one world concept,” they say.

My goodness, if we can‘t afford another $400 when we spend $10,000,000 a year. it’s ridiculous”. Adams was backed up by North Thornhiller Muldrew, chairman of finance com- mittee.

Somewhat chastized. the councillors reconvened a short while later. But the pence and quiet didn’t last ror lone. TYNDALL WALKS OUT In the meantime. rural North Markham Ward Six Councillor Norman Tyndall another candidate seeking re- election. became disgusted with it all and staged anâ€" other of the walkouts that led him to be dubbed the Pink Panther in council in the past. He wasn‘t at all satisfied with the technical explana- tion that there was money left in the maintenance bud- get while the grants budget was used up. South Thornhill Ward One Councillor Robert Adams, 3 candidate for regional coun- cillor this year, took umbrage when council moved to cut a Thornhill Family Life Centre grant request from $600 to $200 while happily spending $390 to exterminate flies that have been defying the efforts of staff in the muni- cipal building. When the explosion came, tempers flared and there was quite a bang. FLIES VERSUS PEOPLE It seemed to be all a mat- ter of insects versus people, or was it water creatures. There have been a few ominous rumblings of dis. tant thunder from time to time. but not until Tuesday of last week with a new elec- tion three weeks away, did the lid blow off. A fairly reasonable clam decorum has reigned in Markham Town Council since the last election two years ago. GRANTS BUDGET GONE Flies Versus People In Markham Council BYRON E. RING 7783 YONGE ST.
