stock in dump is fired hals take refuge in nearby homes residents now demand place be closed coun cil acceeds to request describing the public dumping ground for the township of mark ham residents located on the 3rd concession at headford as a dan gerous place for children of the neighborhood and a menace to health of the locality as well as a detriment to the landscape a dele gation waited on the markham township council on monday de manding that the place be closed one spokeman said that 30 dead pigs were there once 25 hens fea thers and other offensive matter had been tumbled down the em bankment while right on the road side broken glass tin cans and un wanted deposits almost closed off the passage the odors were as offensive as a fish market when you saw trucks from out side the township dumping there why didnt you stop them de manded reeve hooper of archie watts leading spokeman you agreed here last year to act for us and you were paid something for your services continued the reeve mr watts said he couldnt keep up with the job people came when he was ore or two fields away on his own premises and before he could read the dump they dumped their loads and were gone the reeve said council was anxious to catch these offenders and would make an example of them but the residents in the neighborhood should cooperate in getting their names from trucks it was finally decided that the dump would be closed and a resolu tion introduced by councillors stiver and timbers called for its discontinuance it will be placard ed and fenced in due time one speaker declared that when bonfires were started to reduce the rubbish the rats fled for their lives and took refuge in the near by homes much to the annoyance of the owners they are harder to evict than human tenants it was suggested the councils problem is that when this dump is finally closed another must be opened otherwise people will return to clumping on the roadsides everywhere a situa tion that once caused a lot of trouble do you want daylight saving time to return to stouffville this summer will stouffville return to day light saving time for the summer months is a question which the municipal council must face prob ably at their regular meeting this thursday evening or in the very near future at least many towns and practically all cities have adopted daylight time for may june july and august which calls for the turning on of the clocks one hour at the end of the present month stouffville lions club voted to urge council to pass a measure adopting the fast time in keeping with the city of toronto princi pals of our schools tell us that it really makes no difference to them school bus would be the one thing most affected instead of starting out at s am to collect up the students in the gormley district it would actually be starting out at 7 oclock but of course if farmers from these homes adopted fast time for their meals it would not be any different than for townspeople it is said in favor of the change for the summer that students would be home much earlier in order to help with the chores and other duties in any case it is point- fed out that most of the students iare almost finished with their term work when daylight time would be adopted and it would be ended when they are starting back in the fall consequently from a school point it doesnt cause much worry the reeve said he was willing to recommend to council the adoption mrs s b hoover dies in 87th year the ever lessening roll of the very early residents families of the first settlers to this locality was

gardening jfe was better for sports since evening baseball games could be run off as in other years before dark however the gardener has the biggest claim for this year more than ever food stuff is needed badly those who can raise their own certainly ought to do so with starving millions in europe and other parts of the world the least we can do is to raise our vegetables and leave the supplies grown by commercial producers for shipment abroad daylight time will help this along to some extent some farmers object strenuously to fast time but as most agrarians make their time to suit themselves no doubt they can adjust matters of the summer time farmers had a real grievance when the thing con tinued all year causing children to start off to school in the morning before daylight this situation will not enter in to this short change during the height of summer and so we trust the objection from farm friends will not be great undoubtedly it is now up to the council to act what would the business men and others say if council failed to adopt daylight time some of them couldnt say very much since they have not ex pressed an opinion perhaps it is a case with them of any old
