Janet says â€" Oak Ridges - Lake Wilcox We adults are shifting the responsibility on to the children when we say, “They should watch what they’re doing". It is our responsibility as parents and teachers to see that they don’t have to fight the traffic. Do we expect them to always remember road safety rules when we do not? If we were perfect then there wouldn‘t be traffic accidents. After all it isn’t the seven-yearâ€"olds who are driving the cars. The speed limit should be lowered to 15 mph at dismissal times. Can’t the road be closed while buses loadiand unloadrand most of the pupils get clear? “No stopping" signs (enforced during the dismissal period) on both sides of the road the length of the school property would help. A crossing guard would be another solution. Does somebody have to get killed before everyone smartens up? I really am afraid that the answer to that question is yes. That is why I wrote this article the way Idid. To shock somebody â€" anybody â€" all of us â€" into demanding better safety precautions around our school. Elmgrove'is used as a by-pass from Yonge to the King Sideroad and is busier than other side streets. This fact must be realized and acted upon before I am obliged to write a real obituary. Police supervision of traffic has been requested but is sporadic. Signs have been requested but nothing has happened yet. Parents have been requested to keep the road clear â€" they don‘t. Two licensed auctioneers will handle the proceedings Our children are our countEy’s real wealth. We should, we must, take better care of them. Well, consider this! In the last year and a half three young boys have been hit by vehicles on Elmgrove outside the school, two of them within the last seven months. None of the three boys was seriously hurt, but that easily might not have been the case. The town has promised some “No parking’ signs for the north side of the street plus a reduced speed limit At the time of writing the signs have not been installed. The principal and staff sent a letter to all parents asking them NOT to park on the north side of Elmgrove by the school so children would not be tempted to run across the road. On the day of the last accident more than a half dozen cars were parked there in seeming indifference to the request. “Funeral services were held today for Timothy Jones, the grade one pupil who died last Friday on Elmgrove Avenue after being hit by a car outside Oak Ridges Public School. Timothy died in full view of several dozen horrified young children and parents. He did not have to die, and with a little more care from all of us he would still be alive." Many parents and teachers feel strongly that certain things should be done to improve conditions on Elmgrove around the school. Here are some of them. Fortunately, Timothy never did exist. Does that shock you? Do you find the above in poor taste? By Norman Matthews Welcome new postmaster In loving memory Historical Society’s show and tell brings out family treasures still want it on their property for their use. Mrs. Muriel Beatty and Peter Van Dyke volunteered to assist on a museum committee. Maida George reported that a recent newspaper article regarding six King residents who were planning to build a historical museum has proven in reality to be a log cabin built on the King Campus of Seneca College. Seneca’s Historical-Natural Interpretive Services has Prior to the meeting King Mayor Margaret Britnell had given the chairman a publication entitled “A Guideline for Designation of Buildings of Architectural and Historical Importance“ which outlines the possibility of any council forming a committee of not less than five persons. This group would strive to preserve heritage property within the township, Bill Poulis stated. The municipality, under the guide. would instigate a bylaw which would stop owners of properties from received a LIP grant to assist in the building of an authentic log cabin for a museum.

He reported that the com- mittee has deemed painting of the historical building as first priority. The church is already booked for two weddings in July, one in August and a family reunion. He also reported that the new exterior floodlights do not seem to be working correctly. He suggested the society set up a liaison committee with council in the hope of establishing such a bylaw and committee. renovating or demolishing anything deemed a historical structure or property without the written permission of council. 64 fl. )2.

Tins Lloydtown Rebellion Day or Eversley Church Day was the choice offered as the major event of the year. Rev. Edward Jackman (assistant priest at both Nobleton and Schomberg) said that Schomberg is apparently having its own big day this year. Mrs. Muriel Scott spoke of a festival of flowers and music held annually by a church in England, known as Dar- sham‘s Weekend Fete, “which might be a good theme for the Eversley Church Day". A show of hands by the members chose the Eversley event, almost unanimously, with a ten- tative date of September 13. Mr. Upjohn and his com- mittee now have approval to proceed with the arrangements for the festival. o 7 o ¢Rlce A Rom Creamette Ready Cut Mnmrnni 2:5.
