The congregation intoning a Psalm

from their formatters who had

these bricks along the muddy

join my voice with the choir to
invoke God's blessing upon the
good work which the pioneer's

affinity with those who slept in
the churchyard hard by.

THE BIRTH
OF ECARBORcVill
By B, $1001
(Continued from last week)
For the next seventy years a
a succession of vigorous leaders
of the farmers ,of. Scarborough
met in Council in a grey weather-.
ed building at Woburn, the old
Township Hain which stood at
the meeting of the Markham
and Danforth Roads.
The township continued to thrive
, as a purely rural community of
i between 3,700 and 5,000 people.
But before the end of this
period signs of change began to
appear. An electric railway line
was built along the Kingston
Road, and more people travelled
to and from the growing city of
Toronto on the trolley cars.in
1914 the young men went over-
seas to fight for king and
country in the First World War.
When they came back they
fauna hydro electric wires being
strung everywhere along the
roads of the Township and the
days of oil lamps fast di&
appearing. The Township was
beginning to build its first .
Water works at the toot of Ken.
nedy Road, and its water mains
were replacing wells' along the
streets near the city. More and
more people were pouring out
into the open spaces of south-
ern Searborpugh along the
Kingston Road and building
homes, from which they travel-
led daily to Toronto. New public
schools had to be built, and in
1922 the first Collegiate In-
stitute. By 1931 Scarborough's
population had grown to 20,682.
Then came the great businests
depression of the thirties and
the Second 'World Ware to blight
the hopes and plans of hosts of
home makers, and the Town-
ship almost ceased to grow.
But with the close of the war
in 1915 we opened a new and
wonderful chapter in the story
of Scarborough which is stlll
barely begun. During the past
nineteen years in our Town-
ship has exploded into a vast
community of over 250,000 citi-
zens. and has been transformed
into one of the great industrial
and commercial centres of Can..
ada, enriched by' the skills gof
men of many nations. To-day in
our modern and attractive fact-
OrieS we are 'sharing in the
creative work of a great country
destined to become greater yet
And in new schools and churches
parks, libraries and homes, we are
striving to build still better,
happier citizens, loyal to those
high principles which are our
hOritage from the pioneers or
old.
It was like coming home when
settled in a pew at. St, Andrew's
