Outlining the past year, Reeve McCutcheon .pointed out that the village rate had been constant for the last few years, but was reduc- ed this year. The reduction re- sulted from a small library grant. Being on the county road com- mittee, Mr. McCutcheon told the group that the committee had spent the largest budget this year. He mentioned the roads and bridg- es where work had been carried out. Next year's plans call for a bridge on the 5th of Morris and repaving the road from Walton to Brussels.

Ask About Our Complete Range of Warm and Dry WINTER FOOTWEAR That Cost Von LESS At Willis Shoe Store Five streets in the village were dug out during the year, Council- lor Calvin Krauter said in his re- marks, in preparation for paving next year. More streets should be paved, he felt, as there would be a considerable saving in the spreading of calcium. In answer to a question from the floor, he ex- plained why it was necessary to dig out the streets. Orville Elliott indicated he would stand again. Serving on the lights committee, he said most of the work had been done by the PUC. Announcing his resignation after five years on council, Hugh Pear- -son said his recreation commit- tee had a new project on hand - renovation to the arena. The cost, he said, would be $16,000, but' this would require a vote of the rate- payers. However, if it was a memorial arena, this wouldn't be necessary. The arena, Councillor Walter Williamson reminded the audience, had been built in 1930 and hadn't cost the council one cent. However, now it is either fix it up, or lock it up. He felt council should go ahead and make the necessary' re- pairs. When he entered council five years ago, Mrs. Williamson said, he advocated rest rooms and sev- eral drinking fountains. Facilities of the rest rooms are now avail- able and a new municipal office is now in use. Leonard Machan spoke briefly, as did Gordon Workman and Ce- cil McFadden. Retiring PUC Commissioner Wil- liam Adams reviewed activities of that organization. The lights had been slow getting up, but they are now on .hand. If the weather holds out, he said, the lights might still be erected this year. Lloyd Workman, who was ac- claimed to the PUC position, said he had had some experience in that field, Gordon Stephenson and Roy Kennedy, school trustees', spoke briefly, mentioning that the new school had been opened this year. Rev. Lloyd Brown, chairman of the School Board, said one extra teacher had been employed. Re• ceipts for the ,year had been $25,- 899.36, while the expenditures were $23,402,11. Estimated expenditures for the coming year are $25,802.11. Building of the new school has been a major undertaking and they hope to have the opening early in January, Mr. Brown said. Estimat- ed cost of the school was $123,000. He expressed his thanks to all members of boards for their co- operation and willingness to work, also to the secretary -treasurer, Mrs. Elizabeth Elliott. Special thanks, he thought, should be ex- pressed to. council. Roy Cousins, representing Brus- sels on Wingham. High School board, said last year eight new rooms had been added at a cost of $215,000. This year the enrol- ment is 675 pupils up from 606 last year. The school is almost filled to capacity. Three new teachers have been added, bring- ing the staff to 27 teachers. Stu- dents are supplied a meal in the cafeteria at 30 cents, he pointed out. Turning to the Library Board, Mr. Cousins stated he has been on this board for 18 years. The mill rate is 11/2 mills and total receipts for the year were $1,658.00 and ex- penditures being $1,808,00. Owing to improvements the library will run a small deficit this year, he said. As a member of Wingham Hos- pital Board, Mr. Cousins made an extensive report on how the hospi- tal board gets its money to build new extensions.
