markham travelled to xew york city last weekend where it is expected she will undergo an outstanding surgi order to meet the educational com mittee of the county of ontario with a view to having a portion of pickering township included in a markham high school area an unofficialheckup showed that the members of pickering township were generally in favour of the suggestion although they were not at liberty to give the markham board a direct reply at the moment robt manning of whitby town ship and chairman of the ontario county educational committee acted as chairman for the meeting which was held at the pickering municipal building brougham also in attendance were several members of the stouffville board of education including chairman don chadwick who staled that stouff- chool it seemed absurd to even suggest closing a high school with six teachers and already a model in respect to shop work and domes tic science mr manning stated that he be lieved that the students would certainly go where the best accom modation was provided regardless of where the areas where defined pickering he said can recom mend that certain portions of the township be included in certain high school areas these recom mendations go to county council who will pass the bylaws to bring the areas into affect mr burkholder reeve of mark ham said that this was the correct procedure to be followed mr burk holder also stated that he was stir- cal operation on her eyes the opor- k th northwest corner of ation will be one of the few of its p lownslup included in a kind ever attempted and entails sv h area in the transfer of the living cornea of addition the stouffville represent ville too was vitally interested in prised at the way in which mr duffin kept jacking up his figures as to the number of pupils advised another persons eyes to her own mrs deffitt who is a very young woman has suffered very poor sight which has readied the critical stage where this miracle operation must be attempted mrs deffitt was accompanied by her husband on the trip she will undergo a thorough examination into her sight condition before a noted spanish eye surgeon will perform the operation only last winter one of the first such transfers was made on a lady from vancouver who had been sightless since birth and a toronto university student recently return tives stated they were interested in having a portion of uxbridge town ship come into an enlarged area lloyd johnston clerk of picker ing told the meeting that in con versation with mr dufhn of the dept of education he was told that stouffville school would be closed regardless of any opposition which stouftville citizens might put up he made no reference to markham who e faced with the problem of erecting an entirely new school if they wish to continue although he had told a public meeting in that town not long ago that they too would be closed up if the depart ed to his studies after a similar i nlcnt scheme for enlarged area was operation proved successful learned out for a minimum school and the mini mum assessment of the area markham board when asked what portion of pickering town ship they would suggest be includ ed in their area stated that they believed east to the brougham and between the 5th and 7tr conces sions would be about right clerk lloyd johnston stated that a rough estimate of the assessment of this area would be between 8000000 and 700000 he said that the north west section including claremont in which stouffville was interested would cover an assessment of approximately 575000 the loss of a high school to markham could not be measured in dollars and cents said mr ewart stiver and he was sure that a future milk bottles to be gaily painted the dairyman also talks about coining changes to his building delayed until fall now its painted milk bet ties but not for some lime yet according to our dairyman mr chas webster when the new supply is available the colors of the bottles will be red and green instead of the aditiona white or clearglass container tor ontos banting laboratories sug gests that red and green would retain the nutritious value of the milk longer and so when the new glass is out stouffville will have it in due time experiments with riboflavin better known as vitamin b2- led to the painted milk bottle idea says mr webster nutritional and food investigations by rcaf doctors and the toronto hospital for sick children established the fact that the riboflavin essential to good health could best be obtained through milk and dairy products also established was the fact that milk exposed to sunlight loses its riboflavin fairly rapidly the banting laboratories idea then was not prompted by any desire to bring milk bottles into line with current trend toward more colorful surroundings rather it sprang from scientific investiga tion indicating that milk in colored bottles would tend to be a more healthgiving drink mr websters maple leaf dairy premises next the library building was due for a facelifting this summer but like the milk bottles supplies are not available to do the work however mr websfer hopes to build the new front on the prem ises this fall which when complet ed will include enlargement of the building with an extension out to the street line the interior will contain a modern milk bar while the exterior design and construc tion will be among the most mod ern fronts being built anywhere today after midnight and was recovered by eight oclock next morning in toronto the car was discovered missing shortly after midnight when con stable ira rusnell was notified the chief made a search of the dis trict and notified toronto police too the fact that there were no keys for the thieves led to the belief that the car was towed quiet ly from the holden residence and then someone with mechanical knowledge switched the wires successfuly for it was found in this condition by toronto police aband oned on a city street police remov ed the vehicle to strachan avenue station where the owner was re quired to recover it when making search for the car around town during the night the constable was called by some lads to the east end where a suspicious character was said to be roaming around at this same dark hour of hie night a wierd noise in the vicinity of the booth orchard the former collins place opposite the hospital aroused persons from their sleep and after half an hour of continuous shrieking ic was dis covered that the horn on mr booths new spraying truck had shorted in a manner that started the noise just how a short would start up in this manner is some thing of a mystery to mr booth and to others who investigated the sprayer and truck is entirely new this led to the possibility that someone tried to make away with the truck but the idea was not taken seriously by the police a spraying outfit would be about the last type of vehicle for a thief to steal one would imagine in any event the happenings of the night were enough to cause numerous persons several hours of lost sleep mrs may kennedy irvine hawley percy brown fred pugh james hill mrs mabel taylor joseph cayman mrs j silverthorn john b miller harold
