Graceful shade trees line its residential streets and there is a good main busi- ness section. The area around Port Perry for many years has _ been primarily a dairying district, metropolitan area. From the Port: Perry sector a large num- ber of high quality dairy-type breeding animals have origin- ated. One of Canada's largest chick hatcheries and grading arms as well as processing facilities are located in Port Perry. Ideally situated for light in- dustry, Port Perry is just 45 miles from metropolitan To-' ronto, about 16 miles from Osh- awa and Whitby and 40 miles from Peterborough. Many notable persons have made their home in Port Perry, including the Honorable, Dr. M. B; Dymond, Minister of, Health, Hongrable Dr. Herbert A. Bruce, former Lieutenant Gov- ernor, and Daniel David Palmer the founder of the chiropractic profession. According 'to local historians the 'first settler was Elias Wil- liams who came to the district in 1822 and settled the land which later"became the site of Scugog village, now Port Perry. The Area was surveyed by Mr. Perry from whom the commun- ity took its name. He laid out the lots for the first hamlet and also was instrumenta! in bring- ing the hamlet's 'first store which was operated by Chester Draper on the corner of Queen and Water streets. The Post Of- fice was established in Port Perry in 1852. A few years later the first places of worship, the Presbyterian Church, was built as well as the Methodist Epis- copal Church. Port Perry became incorpor- ated as a village in 1872. The area covered by the municipal- ity was some 500 acres and there were 2,000 residents. Eleven years later the most disastrous fire in the commun- ity's history destroyed almost} the entire business section of the viliage. The stores were later re-built with better build- ings and more attractive plan- ning. The first school is report- ed to have been located in the vicinity of where the municipal water. tank now stands. Another schoal was opened about 1868 the power, Village Of Port Perry' combined high and public school! was erected with the education for the young people being pro- vided in a truly competent man- ner. This school burned down in 1926 and has been replaced by a modern, well - equipped high school and a, separate public school, EARLY POWER PLANT Before the days of hydro elec- tric power, the village had a steam generator which supplied a limited amount of electric This generator was housed in the red brick building at the lakefront next to the Master Feeds Building and its principal function was to supply light ftom dusk until midnight. The electric power unit appar- ently did not function in the day- time and possibly would not have supplied sufficient power to run a good-sized electric motor if it had operated. It is interesting to note that Port Perry residents at one time were asked to use as little elec- tricity as possible for lighting their homes so that lights would remain bright for a hockey match in the arena. Port Perry citizens made ap- plication through their town council to join the family of mu- nicipal Hydro systems in. 1925. The local system was operated by a committee of the village council until January 1 of this year when a new Hydro Com- mission 'was appointed. The chairman of the Commission is a former veteran member of the village council, Arthur Thomas Cox. The other Com- missioner is J. E, "Ted" Jack- son. who also had long service on the village council and the thiré member is the Reeve J. J. "Jay" Gibson. The secretary- treasurer of the Commission is R, B. Davis. 3 The following item of interest about the Port Perry. Village Hydro System was iaken from an issue of the Port Perry Star of March, 1928: "It was a big undertaking to instal hydro. The initial invest- ment for which wé-became re- sponsible was $19,881.66. This amount we promised to pay within 30 years. A provision of the agreement was that no prin- cipal should be paid for. three years. That gave the system a chance to make good before the principal payments became due. The investment has made good financially as all the obligations have been met without incurring one cent of debt to the taxpay- ers -- the system has paid for itself. Some $7,000 has been spent in extending the service since it was installed five years but it was not until 1873 when a ago. Extension has been made Elias Williams Founded CITY AND DISTRICT THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, February 25, 1963 3 THOMAS TELLS LEGISLATURE to Prince Albert and Scugog Island. LARGE BLOCKS "Large blocks of have been sold to the rt Perry Creamery and the Milling Co. These two businesses use about 100 HP between them. One of the beauties of Hydro is that it can be used 24 hours a day and can turn the wheels of industry as well as light our homes. The mill used to spend about $3,500) for power and the service of an engineer but since they have in- stalled Hydro the power bill has been reduced to about $1,800. Both these businesses have spe- cial meters called demand meters which measure the ac- tual power consumed. "With the old electric light system the lights went out promptly at 12:00 o'clock (mid- night) and if you needed to get up in the night you had to light the coal gil lamp. It was also needed for those early break- fasts that many a working man had béfore daylight. The cost of the street lights: under the old system was $25.00 per light, with hydro the cost was just $16.00 per light and they stayed on all night, HYDRO POWER WELCOMED "The Hydro was well received! at the Star Office. Our gasoline engine was a chronic invalid and we frequently had to call in Wes. Hadley or Charley Run- del to fix the thing up. Even then it would frequently stop, just when we were most rushed. Now except for rare occasions we can count on our magical servant to do the job without fuss or bother. "We now have 19% miles of wire and hundreds of poles. We can use electricity for many tasks, washing machines, refrig- erators, ironing, water heaters, toasters, and. electric table stoves. "Well that was in 1928, just a few years after the Hydro came to Port Perry. Now one would need to search far before one found a home without some electricity and most of us would scarcely know how to live with- out it. "It was one of the most thrill- ing evenings of our lives when 'grandpa' Rolph pressed the but- ton that meant Hydro power for: Port Perry. I can see the old gentleman now and with what delight he made the light grow brighter as the new power surged through the lines." This interesting report indi- cates how welcome was the first Hydro power when introduced into Port Perry.
