?NUESDAY. Altm. ISth, 1988 4*-Iistory of I 1Ov e r. 33 YE ~arton Bus Personal service la the order of the day, every day, with Garton Coach Lînes, one afi te oldest and largest privately owned and operated bpsls nes in Ontario. At this time of year, Clare *»Garton, owner ai the system, rannounces a special service for visitors ta the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition in Toronto. Every day during the Exhibi- tion, special buses wïl be run- 'Iing from Bowmanvîlie and other centres served byth Une, right into the exhibition grounds, where they will re- Main until the time cames ta return home after the grand- Btand show. The buses will be open for the passengers' con- venience ail day. Garton Coach Lines have been serving the people ai Dur- ham and Ontario Counties since 1922, when Clare Garton's father, the late T. A. "Tim" Garton, moved here from Lon- don, Ontario, and ran one bus be t we en Bowmanville and Whitby. A friend af Mr. Gar- ton's, irom London, moved in. ta Whitby, and the twa men each., operated single buses along the route in a mutual benefit scheme. Later, Mr. T. A. Garton purchased the other haîf af the initial business. Today, 17 buses operate over three main routes: Bowman- ville; Oshawa and Whitby; ]Bowmanvilie ta Lindsay and Bo0bcaygeon via Newcastle and Orono; and Bowmanviiie ta Blackstock via Hampton, En- niskillen and Burketon.

The staff of Garton Coach Lmnes now averages one super- visor, 10 fuli-time drivers, three part-time drivers, one ~ garage foreman and four assist- ants,' one office mranager, and two part-time office workeri. Since the inauguration of p Garton Coach Line.% in 1922, . only one very minor increase in fares has been made, despite a continuing increase in service and expenses. This month, onie zone rate between Oshawa and Bowmanviile was increased slightly to equalize the rate in ail zones along the route. Operating a bus route is an interesting business, as Garton employees have found out, and they learn much about peopde. Forgetfulness seems ta bea common trait of travellers.
