"Your RED CROSS is aff Serving Today Ready for Tomorrow Appoint Deputy - Treasurer Ontario County Council ap- pointed Mrs. Nancy Mackay as deputy treasurer for the county at its June sitting. Mrs. Mackay, who resides at. 831 Greerson Street, Oshawa has been employed by the county as a bookkeeper since 1961. The appointment, by bylaw, makes her the first deputy treasurer of the coun- ty. The committee on finance and assessment recommended the move and reported that over 20,000 cheques were be- ing issued annually by the County and that the signing of cheques and the authori- zation for payments were time consuming. The committee advised council that at the present time the Clerk treasurer and his deputy were authorized to sign but that these offi- cials had many other duties to perform and were finding it increasingly difficult to keep up with the constantly increasing volume of work. -~ SSS SS a NS a a, a SS a --- 4 pl Te is The ladies on the front steps of the old portion of Scugog Township Hall in fashions of 100 years ago were handed Fo 3 ee J . ou ai k E 4 -- - ar | 3 g p § $ i - - 1 » a 4 'HY = 1 Svat ' ! 4 | 4 4 \ be a | ; - 4 : 1 3 i . xh \ \ I, ES AEN 251 § i LL . 0 Poi " 3 ¥ " a bs ; Ny oud BR Gn en Lp i h Je i » Gi B= BY i ¥ v #18 | LC. ! } | f " ai ge wl A ad Bae | 85 Bot is many compliments for their fine dresses, and commented on by Dr. M.
