ANOTHER FIRST FOR AJAX On December 8, 1961, members of the Ajax Hydro-Electric Commission officially opened a new substation on Tulloch Drive in the Lake Vista Gar- dens Subdivision. This station, 'first of its kind on the North American continent, incorporates a great num- ber of safety features for the operat- ing Hydro staff. Concealed from the public view by an attractive wooden fence, the entire station is recessed below ground approximately four feet. The purpose of this is to baffle the normal inherent hum of the trans. former station and it is believed that with the addition of the specially de- signed fence, any noise problems that might arise would be largely elimin- ated. The H6000KVA eapacity which can be increased to approximately 7000KVA by the addition of forced cooling will provide ample capacity for the coming year. This station will supply all residential areas south of Highway 401 and will permit the present substation on Dowty Road to Diary of a Vagabond By Dorothy Barker THREE WISE WOMEN It is this time, at year's end, that we assess our losses and gains our assets and depreciation, and rejoice in our successes and regret our trans- gressions, Why it is human nature to choose this particular time to take stock of ourselves has always intrigued me. This year, rather than review my own conquests or shortcomings, I became fascinated with the way three women who 1 know well have created more satisfying lives for themselves while contributing to the pleasure and hap- piness of others, So many women today kick against the pricks of house-keeping monont- ony. Most of them have a desire to enrich their lives but are at a loss to know how to go about it. In choosing these three women to write about, 1 realized not every person is born with creative genius as one of my friends was, nor is every woman born with an inspired sense of salesmanship. On the other hand, thé talent of the third has been developed by many, but it is her reason for establishing her business and her dogged determina- tion to make it a success that may inspire others. Problems No Problems Carol Procter has so many facets to her creative genius that it will be difficult to condense her story. She mily of two boys and a daughter to raise, a mother to care for and farm chores to do seven days a week. She went through various hobbies from bird watching and nature lore when the children were small, to ceramics and metal craft when she was con- fined to her home to care for her in- valid mother. She became an author- ity on every species of wild flower, tree, fungi, moss and bark which she painted with water colours in fairy- like illustrations for the tales she wrote to amuse her youngsters. Later } Site wisdied books on ceramics, mo- delled figurines which brought a good price in gift shops, taught herseit iv enamel] on copper and fire the results in a kiln her husband purchased for her. When her mother died she had one desire. To bring to other senior citi- zens some of the joy of creative craftsmanship. She volunteered as a craft 'teacher in York County Home for the Aged in Ontario. For years she worked under trying conditions until the new home was completed fast year. Recently she accepted the position of a paid craft teacher in zens. This month, in the new build- ing, the first sale of articles made by elderly people who eagerly await her coming each day to open the craft shop, realized $600.00. Carol Proctor says there is nothing more satisfying than watching latent talent develop. From Food to Fashion Bea Dailey's career is just as. out- standing. Childless herself, she help- ed raise a niece and nephew. Living with her during the school term, they attended high school while she ran a handle all the commercial and _in- dustrial areas with ample capacity for expansion. ---- Carbon Tetrachloride Another serious case of carbon tet- rachloride poisoning is reported from Winnipeg when a 'housewife dropped a bottle of cleaning fluid on the kit- chen floor where it smashed, She is reported to have opened the kitchen door to clear the fumes and dumped water on the solution, but then wiped up the mess, She became very ill and was saved from possible death by prompt medical and hospital treat- ment. Recently on the local Toronto mar- ket we have found an imported sweat- er being sold to the ladies swith the instruction on the covering bag "To clean, use carbon tetrachloride." The danger of this instruction has been drawn to the attention of the import- er, and he has given assurance it will be changed. Carbon tetrachloride can be a dead- ly poison to the human being either when its fumes are inhaled, or when it is absorbed through the skin of the hands or other exposed parts of the She soon became famoyg among tra- velers and local business men for her good food, home-made pies and ice cream. When this business was at its peak her health worsend. She con- sidered retirement and actually closed the dors %f her culinary fame for- ever as far as the public was con- cerned. Then Bea Dailey rented a shop further uptown and started a dress shop. line to include millinery, sportswear, and lingerie. She has had to buck the threat of discount stores, shopping plazas and the shopping habits of local women who are constantly baited to spend their dollars in metro- politan stores. Style sense, . good sonality .were her investment capital, The wholesale houses she deals with knew they could rely on these .attri- butées and Bea Dailey has never dis- appointed them. My third success story is about a person who also started her business career. in her home. Terry Santoro learned the art of hairdressing from her elder sister who, with her mother, conducted a beauty salon at the front of their living quarters, She became 80 adept that she was soon working long hours, six days a week. After her marriage she established her own beauty parlor. Through two body. pregnancies she continued to build had problems. An obstreperous fa- | this provincial home for senior citi-- small restaurant in her own home. Since then she has moved to larger quarters and extended her fashion! salesmanship and her pleasant per- this business. She now employs two girls, has rented and remodelled an adjacent store, purchased a home and seen her husband through a serious period of recession in his line of busi- ness. Undoubtedly it was their mental attitude, their determination, their instinct for a fuller life, which led these women such satisfying SUCCess, to Council News DEPARTMENT REPORTS FIRE DEPT. The Fire Dept. has been moderately active during the past year, respond- ing to 53 calls; 13 in Port Perry and 40 in the surrounding Townships. It has been the turn of the Port Perry Brigade, to supply the instrue- tions and demonstrations in connec- tion with the monthly meetings of the Ontario County Mutual Aid Fire Ser- vices, which consist of 15 Fire Depts. These monthly meetings are de- signed to bring out improved-methods of Fire Fighting and are attended by between 50 and 60 fire fighters, each meeting. With the coming into being of the Emergency Measures Organization, it is possible that some further instrue- tion in Rescue Work may be under- taken by Firemen in Ontario County. Again this year inspections are be- ing carried out through the Town by the Firemen to point out any hazards or possible causes of Fires, and any advice given should be taken seriously in this regard. I Tt is very essential that the 1962 Council consider the purchase of a New Fire Truck, due to the age and condition of the present equipment. Fire Protection should be a prime con- cern at all times. : --Arthur T. Cox, Chairman. LJ * LJ HYDRO DEPT. Your Hydro Dept. is a very import- ant part of the Municipality, and ren- ders service to 833 consumers. While this Dept. will operate at a deficit in 1961 this is to be expected, as the present low rates are designed to lower the existing surplus. This year an extensive Tree trim- ming program was undertaken, 1000 trees were trimmed at a cost of $3000. The $25 grant was also continued for changing from 2 to 3 wire seir- vice in 1961 and 18 residents were able to take advantage of this offer; however this grant is under review at this time and may be discontinued. Some 22 new services were added in the past 10 months, 3 of these being 3 phase extensions. Water heaters ave still supplied by the Hydro System on a Rental Pay- ment basis. | Considerable strides have been made by the Port Perry System since 1924, + when there were 294 customers using 73.6256 kilowatt hours, at a cost of | 10.05¢ per hour to 833 services in 11960 using 4,210,965 kilowatt hours at an average cost of 1.05¢ per kilo- | watt hour. i-- 'The book value of the Port Perry I System stands at $143,878, doing t 866,000 worth of business. The Asset of the System as of Dec. Ist 1961 are $36,176, $26,00 of these are in securities. I am strongly suggesting that a Hydro Commission be formed during 1962 and some of the responsibility be transferred to such a Commission in 1963. It f my belief that the pre- sent trend of Municipal Business war- rants such action. Arthur T, Cox, Chairman. . Ld Ld POLICE DEPT. As Chairman of the Police Dept., for the first time, it has been inter- esting for me to see the inner work- ings of Police Activities. With the influx of summer viistors some con- trol has to be enforced if our by-laws are to be effective, more so, when vioaltions of the Tighway Traffic Act are incurred. Now that Queen St. is being improved and TA Highway wid- ened, it is evident that more contro! of the 30 M.P.H. speed limit must he also enforced. The erection of Yield signs at some intersections, has allowed greater freedom of travel, and will be more effective during the winter months, Some thought should be given to the erection of Stop Lights at Queen and Lilla Sts., when the connecting link comes under the control of the Port Perry Council, While 8 extra Police were hired for Hallowe'en, some 46 signs were either destroyed or moved, which took two days to replace. Other than that -- : A complete file of Records are kept in the Police Dept. covering each 24 hours. Nearly 2000 phone calls were answered during the past year, Five B.E.T., Criminal Code 9, HT. Act 168, Liquor Act 18, Fatal Accidents 2. There were also 24 Traffic Accidents and 38 Accident and Criminal investi- gations conducted, The resignation of Con, Williams, took effect at his own request in Oct., and Con. Light, a Police Officer with 12 years experience was engaged. Chief Cameron expressed his faith and confidence in the teenage resi- dents of Port Perry, in their behaviour and cooperation. It is my hope that the Port Perry Police Dept. will continue to function in the same manner during the years to come. } ) --Arthur T. Cox, Chairman. '62 Licenses on Sale Jan. 2nd Transport Minister Rowntree an- nounced last week that the new 1962 Drivers' Licences and Motor Vehicle Permits would go on sale at all issu- ing Offices on Tuesday, January 2nd, 1962. He said that people would notice a change this year. "In the interests of the Department's continuing accident prevention program"; the minister continued, "we have had imprinted in red across the face of all licences and permits the words - "SAFETY PAYS'. Now every time anyone looks at one of these documents he will be remind- ed of the dangers accompanying lack Mr. Rowntree added a word of war- ning that again in 1962 there would be no extension of the deadline for the purchase of new licence plates. This coming year, he said, the deadling would be Wednesday, March 14th, and that after that date all motor vehicles must carry 1962 plates. The Minister requested everyone to obtain their licences and permits early and so avoid a last nfinute rush in Mareh, which could lead to long line- ups and inconvenience to purchasers: He said that issuing was done fom some 260 Agency offices th.oughout the Province, and that these offices had ample 7. gties to issue all thé ences and perdiits heforo-March 14, so long as applicants did not wait until the last minute. New Stamps | For 1962 The subjects of seven new postage. stamps to he issued in 1962 were _an- nounced recently by the Postmaster General, the Honourable William Hae milton. Three new regular issue The four conmemorative and spe- cial issues will all be of the five cent denomination, and the first will be to emphasize the rol) of Education and its importance to the individual and to the nation. 1962 has been desig- nated by the Provineial Education au- thorities as "Education Year", The hundred and fiftieth anniver= «ary of the founding of the Red River Sett'ement in 1812 by Lord Selkirk, where the metropolis of Winnipeg "stands, will focus attention on the opening and development of the Western Plains, ' An issue her series of stamps now honouring expldrers and founders will he dediented to} Jean Talon, first In-- tendant of New Fragyce.

A new one dollar regular issue de- _eiun will appear during 1962. Canada, as a great international trading na- tion, will be the subject of this stamp.
