Most beginners are nervous and feel awkward at first, but before long they get that wonderful enâ€" thusiasm that makes them forget all else but the problem of transâ€" fering onto canvas their reacâ€" tions to the object in front of them. And when it‘s finished it doesn‘t matter at all if it‘s good or bad, in the eyes of a critic, all that matters is, that they have produced something unique. Instead of sitting at home watching T.V. they have gone out to seek a way of expressâ€" ing themselves, and have found it in the most relaxing of all hobbies. creative art. The club got its name from the famous artist Franklin Carmiâ€" chael, who was one of the oriâ€" ginal group of seven. His widow gave permission for his name to be used, and she has followed the progress of the club with great interest, and always preâ€" sents the annual Franklin Carâ€" michael award each year, at the fall exhibition. and the students are able to exâ€" hibit at least two to three times a year. The level of teaching has always been high, and the preâ€" sent instructors, Mr. T. Kramâ€" ole and Mr. G. Tiltins, are both graduates of the Ontario College of Art. Like a subâ€"division the firms will vary in size and design, without restricting future exâ€" pansion. This project is within the rigid zoning and planning regulations of the Etobicoke Planâ€" ning Department, vet it meets all the requirements needed by inâ€" dustry. The Saracini company have enâ€" deavoured to create Canada‘s first industrial subâ€"division, comâ€" pletely planned that will be pleasant to the eve yet functionâ€" al setting for maximum efficienâ€" cy in a location where property appreciation will progress in years to come. the name of the community and the product is distributed nationâ€" ally and internationally. Indusâ€" try in these areas has bring exâ€" amined by the critical eye of John Q. Public and changes have been rapid. Probably the most ambitious project to create fine looking inâ€" dustrial areas has been undertakâ€" en by Saracini Construction of Etobicoke. This company is constructing an industrial community in the exact manner it has built resiâ€" dential subâ€"divisions. The proâ€" ject, called the Skyway Indusâ€" trial Park will be built near Highway 27 and Dixon Rd. Besides being fully serviced the park will have paved roads with curbs and â€" landscaping. Truck turning areas will have special driveways; loading areas will be as inconspicious as posâ€" ble.

The complete city that is planned to contain a population of approximately 20,000 is built on what is termed, in the trade, "nonâ€"speculative" land â€" that is the land is not considered as highâ€"priced until, of course, the developers have developed it. The home purchaser, therefore, can buy his home actually at thousands of dollars less than in alreadyâ€"established areas. Once the home is built, of course, its value rises as the development becomes an established one. This saving is augmented in Peel Vilâ€" lage by mass purchase of materiâ€" als for industry, for shopping centres, for homes, for churches, for schools, etc., which puts the Peel Village developers in a poâ€" sition to drive a hard bargain. Giantâ€"scale building makes for maximum efficiency and cuts the selling price, too.
