The Chairman' then called on the other two nominees for Reeve, • Gordon Smyth. and Harold • Errington Mr:: Smyth .said. that the. present Council. had handled' the ,Township affairs 'very. 'capably and there: was little room for criticism. Mr. Errington stated, he was not interested in stepping up to run for Reeve this. year and felt it only fair to give Bobs (Lyons) another year in office, 'but he was agree- able to stand agaid. for Council. Her reviewed some of the work , completed by'the Township .this year - the bridge on Concession 12- 13, and the, excellent job he felt had been done_ by the Road Superin- tendent and Grader. Operator. It was his feeling that the application of more gravel in the past two years was beginning t�o pay off, ' • The rest of 1961 Council came• forward, in turn, at this time. I. T Firstly; James `R. Aitchison said it had been a•pleasure 'to work, with Council"and if it was the wish• of• the ratepayers. he ,would be pleased to. stand for C ouncil •another .year. He mentioned the purchase of the / Robertson 'gravel pit and although it is situated at one end .of the Township it is felt to be a good move, Leonard Chisholm also ex- pressed his enjoyment in working; with Council and mentioned what an'education one year,in such a; position is. He felt that those who ; are inclined to find fault' with the •Council should: spend a year in ,office. One soon finds that. every- thing cannot be accomplished at. once, nor by one person, Mr. Chis- holm 'said if the. ratepa :ers a : reed , he would be'happy to spend another year in office. Leo: Foran felfevery thing that needed: tobe said. had. been, and all he wished: to saywas that he would'agree to stand as Councillor again. The new nominees then came. to the; front, Murray..
