heres one to cool you down faaaaaaaaaaa when he sun is hot take a glimpse at this winter scene at niagara falls where mother nature displays one of her greatest creation 7000 acres in markham for urban development by f h brcnnan article 7 the official plan for mark- ham township allows for a to tal of approximately 7000 acres to be used ultimately for urban residential development this acreage represents 12 only of the total for the township the remainder is reserved for ham lets farms and a few nonagri cultural uses in a predominantly agricultural area the first concession between yonge street and bayview ave has been earmarked to bear the i greatest load of this residen- i tial development the plan out lines a total of eleven neigh bourhood units to be developed within this concession the question naturally arises as to what planning board means by a neighbourhood unit the size of the neighbourhood un its varies from no 4 bounded i by highway no 7 and the cnr with 206 acres to no 1 bounded by yonge street steeles and bayview avenues and the la dies golf course with 740 acres as may be appreciated from vssxsxxsxjcxxxsxsattacsxxxssj village of stouffville proclamation 1956 civic holiday whereas at a meeting- of the council of the corporation of the village of stouffville held on the 17th day of july 1956 it was resolved that monday august 6 1956 be and the same is hereby fixed as the civic holiday for thecurrent year and that the reeve be authorized to publish the usual proclamation in connection therewith these are therefore to make known that in compliance with the foregoing resolution i do hereby proclaim monday august 6 1956 as the civic holiday for the year1956 of which all persons are hereby requested to take notice and govern themselves accordingly elmer r daniels reeve god save the queen these two examples the boun daries of a neighbourhood unit are either substantial natural or manmade barriers the planning board is having prepared large scale maps for each neighbourhood unit the i planning director superimposes a suggested road pattern on these this road pattern is aimed at establishing shopping cen tres schools and churches away from the through arterial highways to those of us used to the grid pattern of conces sion and side roads the appar ent irregularity of these roads may appear at first glance new fangled in point of fact a con siderable financial saving is ef fected in street construction and maintenance because the local streets discourage through driv ing and need not be as substan tial or as wide as through roads not all neighbourhood units are to be built up with the same density one firmly established principle of the planning board as stated in the official plan is urban densities will not be al lowed to develop unless serviced by water aod sewers with this principle in mind and a knowledge of where water and sewers might practically be installed and where this will not be economically sound for a long time it is readily feasible to determine how many homes could be built in each neighbour hood unit and from this figure judge fairly accurately the po tential population that might ul timately

grow ing under a variety of conditions throughout ontario wet or dry shaded or exposed and in any soil from pure sand or rocky ground to rich woods and fields on land that is farmed it is gen erally confined to borders and corners not reached by tillage leaves of poison the leaves of poison ivy are borne alternately on the stem and are compound consisting of three similar leaflets as in the strawberry those of virgin ia creeper are in fives they are quite smooth and even glossy and firm in early summer clusters of inconspicuous whitish flowers arise from the axils of leaves and are succeeded by round dull white fruits the size of a held pea fleshy at first but later firm and dry in which condition they remain on the leafless stem all through the following winter rather

tissues with which they come into con tact but are highly poisonous if absorbed by the body such poison ivy has a distressing toxic action on the skin the offending substance of the plant is an oil

disease has been attacked dr taylor pointed out that the only hope for a patient with cancer lies in early detection proper diagnosis and speedy treatment the established and accepted treatment for cancer is the judicious use of surgery and radiation this is not to say that further weapons will not be found many hundreds of chemical compounds have been tested for their effects on tu mors some have been found which have at least a temporary effect but a drug has not yet been found which cures can cer each year many cancer pa tients who apply for treatment early have their disease com
