Getting to the meat of his subject he said, "Caught on a merryâ€"goâ€"round of life, grabbing the Sunday go to church sandâ€" wich keeps you going, but if the Message doesn‘t get through, this sustenance isn‘t enough." Brought up in a Christiar family home and a graduate enâ€" gineer Warren found there was still something missing in his life so decided to enter the minâ€" Istry. It was some years later, North York is handing over about three acres o6f park land needed for the Spadina expressway and five acres of park land required for Don Valley parkâ€" way. In return, Metro will give the township 8 acres of land surplus to the needs of the Spadina expressway. Metro will proceed to acquire land to permit construcâ€" tion of the widening of Jane Street in York Township from Dndas St. to Weston Rd. Metro traffic officials have agreed to a 30 minute %nrklnz limit on the west side of Keele St. in York ownship between Lavender Rd. and Rogers Rd. There is a complete parking ban in this area at presâ€" ent. Metro planners are confident that the population estimate for the new borough ofâ€" York (which comâ€" bines York Township and Weston) will soon move past the provincial 138,000 population estimate. Metro planners anticipate a future population for the borâ€" ough in excess of 165,000 people. The rate of increase will depend to some extent on Metro area economics. and the degree of high density apartment development allowed in the borough. Metro conservation officials report that they have almost all of the necessary proâ€" perty in the Eglinton Elats area of York Township. Some of the land will be preserved for park and eroâ€" sion control purposes while other sections will be used for future roadways. _ _ _ _ â€"_ There is some indication that Metro was not happy with the way the city was doing maintenance work on the Metro road system in the city. Metro will be taking the work over, having to add 50 new staff. But in addition Metro indicates it may have to do about $950,000 yearly for the next five years in resurfacing work to help bring the Metro roads in the city up to a standard provided in the suburbs. Not Good Enough Speaking a language everybody could understand,, Rev. Bernâ€" ard Warren, Alderwood United, addressed a packed congregaâ€" tion of all ages at Beverly Hills United Church during their 12th Anniversary celebrations _ last Sunday evening. Speaking without the aid of a microphone or notes _ Rev. Warren. breezed into his topic "A Challenge of Youth in the Church and in the World", using, as example, his own exâ€" periences _ of _ how he _ met the challenge. The audience quickly responded to his good humor and readily joined him in several choruses of a toeâ€"tapâ€" ping song as he accompanied them on a banjo, with professioâ€" nal strum.

Metro works department has answered complaints from North York representatives about the cost of a waste di‘-lrou.l study. Metro officials consider that $175,000 will not be out of line for the study. . f § The future for the Metro area, the city and five boroughs, appears to Metro planners to be divided in the following fashion when it comes to land use. About 55 percent will be residential, 20 percent industrial or commercial and 11 percent open space with grass and Weston today has about 64 percent of its land covâ€" ered by residential use as compared to 10 to 12 percent in industrial and commercial use. York Township has about the same proportion of residential and indusâ€" trialâ€"commercial coverage. York Township on a proâ€" portionate basis appears to have slightly more open or park space than found within Weston but both benefit from the Humber Valley watershed. & old We were shocked to learn that 19yearâ€"old Peter Carr (he and his family were oneâ€"time resiâ€" dents of Chapel Hill Rd.) was found by police, lying uncons cious in the vicinity of Tumpane Public School and Heathrow Drive at approximately 230 a.m. Saturday. He regained conâ€" sciousness in Intensive Care at Humber Memorial. Hospital at Peter had been to a movie with a friend. and after the two vouths parted company . at . a earby home, he set off to catch the last Jane Street bus. Reportâ€" ed to us: He was hit from beâ€" hind and had no chance to witâ€" ness his assailant. Off hand, we can think of two similar incidents occuring in our vicinity during the past two or three years. These storâ€" ies are not conducive to a mind "at ease" â€" you would think that with our new, brighter street lamps anyone with malâ€" icious intent would hbe detérâ€" red. Another question enters the mind, is this person living in our midst? 645 a.m. His wallet, still conâ€" taining some money, was also found in the area. Let‘s hope the police detectâ€" ives find some clue to the idenâ€" tity of this individual, and that Peter suffers no long:term ill effects from his ordeal. trees. This would leave 2 percent for agricultural and 12 percent taken up by utilities and institutions. _ Metro will sell Weston one acre of the Weston sewâ€" Community Shocked At Needless Assault It‘s The Third Attack In Past Two Years Metro arrzins |General Gear Club Takes Squirt League Pennzâ€"t NIGHT ATTACK after using his engineering abilâ€" ities to build churches, figurâ€" atively speaking, that he found, as many other Christians, it was easy to take that weekly "Sunâ€" day Sandwich" and never honâ€" estly ask the question "Are you as good as Jesus?" â€" like havâ€" ing the words to. a song withâ€" out the music. "Often", he said, "we all think of ourselves as nice guys and everybody else around us as sinners."

Kiddell, St. Stephen‘s Anglican _ Church; Rev. Bill Thorneloe, _ Riverside United Church. Past members of Beverâ€" ly Hill‘s United congregation were also welcomed back for the day‘s celebration.

He urged the young people to return the God given gift of hope with honesty to oneself and transmit this to those in the world around him. + Guest preacher at the morning service was Rev. Professor G. W. Boyce, BA., BD., $TM., D.D., Professor of Homileties and Pastoral Theology at Emâ€" manuel College, who chose for his sermon "The Uniqueness of the Church."

"There are about 18,000 in York and over 2,000 in Weston. It‘ll ‘be fun to sort them out over the next few years for the mutâ€" ual satisfaction of all concernâ€" ed." he said. Why Are Your Taxes Higher Than Ours? "Because our assessment propâ€" erties are lower. Over 30 years ago York was the bedroom or dormitory for Toronto, like Scarâ€" boro is now. On a summer day with the church windows up, a clergyman couldn‘t get himself heard by his congregation for the noises of saws and banging of hammers as Toronto city emâ€" ployees built their homes in York and Mt.

He reiterated that all comments were his personal opinions and not of Council. He faces an elecâ€" tion on Dec. 5, when he hopes to be elected the first Mayor of the Borough of York. Will Our Taxes Go Up Gradually? "Residential taxes, yes, over a threeâ€"year period. _ Business taxes. no: they go up all the way within the first year.
