I felt it my (duty?) on a recent trip home to eat out after a bit of shopping. Driving up Yonge Street, we noticed the Trio Steak House Tavern in Aurora and decided to eat there‘ We didn't want anything too fancy or expensive, but just a good meal for the six of us. I ordered a hot chicken sandwich at $2.75 and one of my daughters ordered the same from the children‘s menu at $1.75. When the meal came, both hot chicken sand- wiches were exactly the same with no more in the adult portion than in the child's. I felt the price rather stiff for a few slices of chicken on bread with a scoop of mashed potatoes and corn, covered with gravy. But ‘the final blow came when I was charged extra for a rice pud- ding dessert and for our tea. Actually the desserts (jello for the children) and drinks were all extra with none being included in the meal price. The fact that our waitress was extremely pleasant and friendly was one point in the restaurant's favor.

A Toronto couple plan on being married on a moving street car next month which would certainly be unusual. According to the Toronto Star a different sort of wed- ding is being proposed by the King Valley Ski Centre. The operators are looking for a couple' who would like to be married on the slopes. The wedding party â€"- in traditional dress except for longâ€"johns and skiis â€" would ski down the hill (aisle) and the ceremony would take place at the bottom. Anyone interested can write to the King Valley Ski Centre in King City. Now the challenge has been received, I feel that it would be nice to keep it in the township.

Not King's Marg Britnell King Township Council Mayor Margaret Britnell tended to bristle slightly Monday night of last Week when the subjects of gravel pits came up in council. “It’s the same old story," she told “The Liberal." “Everyone has got to have gravel pits when it's been proven in other things that it isn‘t always necessarily so. It's just more conve- nient." Her comments came in the wake of an application by Gormley Sand and Gra- vel to operate a 300-acre tract in the Glenville area of the municipality. The company has purcha- sed the area from York Sand and Gravel operations which already contains exis- ting sand pits. Gormley Sand Gravel is making application to the Ministry of Natural Resour- ces for licences to operate and expand the existing sand pits. It was pointed out at an earlier committee meeting that under the provisions of the township’s Official Plan the pits are legal non-con- forming and technically 1e- gal. This didn’t satisfy Mayor Britnell who has visions of gravel pits suddenly sprou- ting all over the municipali- ty. Councillor Murray Shear- down noted the operation would be legal adding that there was a scarcity of such gravel pits which are needed in the construction of roads. Mayor Britnell stated there are “other ways of building roads if there is enough interest shown in finding out the waYs." She suggested that one way might be “found by using ground glass for road material."

Performance and Reliability and “One Touch" Color tuning! SOLID STATE 100% This seemed to surprise Mr. Sheardown who recove- red quickly to observe that "glass is made from sand which really amounts to the same thing." “Well, let's start recycling glass," countered Mayor Britnell. Councillor Jack Van Luyk abserved somewhat face- tiously that King's road would be "shining affairs" if they were made out of glass. Mayor Britnell said later that one of the problems is that “we have no com- prehensive zoning bylaw to even attempt to stop these operations." She admitted that the pro- vince had the final say but “I still thnk we should do our best to make sure such pits don’t become a major problem in the future." Council agreed to discuss the matter further with a spokesman for Gormley Sand and Gravel at its next committee meeting. Married 40 Years At Home To Friends Forty years of happy mar- riage were celebrated by Mr. and Mrs. George Richardson recently. They were “at home" to approximately 100 relatives and friends who enjoyed the informal occas- ions at Wesley United Church, Vandorf. The Richardsons were married by Rev. Garnet Lynd of the Temperonce- ville Charge, at the Rueben Street manse in Aurora, September 9. 1933. Mr. Richardson served several years on the council and as reeve of Whitchurch Township.
