Some more thought
might well be given
to the fostering of
winter sports here.
One glance up the
valley of the Bayfi-
eld River gives the
impression that ski,
sleigh and toboggan
slopes would not be
too hard to find.

BYLAW No 1
The first bylaw to
be aassed for the ae-
cently re-Incorporat-
ed village war listed
as Bylaw No. 1-65,
being a bylaw to au-
thorize the 1'c:rowing
of money from The Can-
adian Imperial aank
of Commerce with which
to operate the aillaae
business until such
time as the tax reven-
ues are available.
REAR PETITIOTTS
Couacil heard from
/4::.3. Geo. Hopson, Waa
asked faa tle ase cf
the village hall for
an organizaticr neet
ing of a proposed Sr.
Citizens Club for ray-
field.
Consent wa., Given
or undeastandiag
that if an executive
were elected, it wou-
ld negotiate with tam
cbairmen of the fin-
ance and property co-
mmittees raaariinc
aaancnt for the use
of the hall ae4 heat
ing thereof.
OtD CRONIES ?
A somewhat simil-
ar request was heard
from Fred Watson who
spoke on behalf of
some of the older
men of the village
who wish to use the
basement of the hall
for card playing.
They would like use
of the basement ev-
ery day but Sunday,
and indicated there
would be no gambling,
no drinking.
Mr. Watson was ad-
vised that an exec-
utive should be ele-
cted to make arrang-
ements for caretaking
and heating with the
appropriate committ-
ees of council.
The originally
suggested name of
"The Old Crocks"
for the senior men's
group was abandoned
at the suggestion of
the reeve, the more
genteel "Cronies" be-
ine substituted.
Around
the VILLAGE
It seems, that
now would be a good
time to have another
meeting of The Bay-
field Businessmen's
Association and get
started on some of
the many projects on
the list at the first
meetings.
Now that the local
council has been set
up and is functioning
normally, there is
some hope that some
co-operation, will be
received on some of
the projects.
Improvement of li-
ghting, especially in
the business sestion
might very well be
taken up, as well as
the plan for street
signs.
The rickety old
steps leading down to
the beach from Pion-
eer Park are still a
bone of contention and
some decision should
be made soon to either
destroy or replace
them.
Beautification of
the village could be
achieved by some plan-
tings at strategic
spots. Much of this
has been done in God-
erich, on waste pieces
of ground, at dead end
roads, on embankments
and indeed in a proper
planter in front of
the town hall.
No expensive plants
are required in such a
program. Even petunia
plants can brighten
up some of the dull
corners hereabouts.
It is not too ear-
ly to be thinking ab-
out an attractive fol
der for those inter-
ested in the tourist
business. There sho-
uld be literature of
this kind at border
crossing points and
at information booth
locations throughout
Ontario. A co-oper-
Rtive folder by the
accommodation people
of Bayfield and area
could easily be made
up and need not be
expensive either.
Bylaw No. 1-65 was properly
signed and sealed at the regu-
lar meeting Monday night when
Reeve Fred Clift went into act-
ion with the old original seal
of Bayfield Council. Believed
to date back to the 18501 s,the
old seal has been modified and
brought up to date for use of
the re-incorporated village.
The seal had not been in use
