That's cur national flag, and it is distirattve. A CBC reporter who interviewed some Russian sailors as they ran up the rew Cana: .lan flag on their ship in Montreal harbor, was somewhat amused to hear the USSR, citizens admire the generous use of red in the fla. A ship's officer commented that it was indeed a nice thought to use a leaf with eleven poirts, one for each of our provinces ? Maybe Northern Ontario is entitled to one. Meanwhile, over at Clinton RCAF base,the lowering and raising act was carried out with greater fanfare than in most places, and with the difference that it was a Blue Ensign that care down. It was a flag that lacked the long history of the "old red duster", b-gt it waved over many valiant stations during World War II and since and was a rallying symbol for one of the greatest fighting armadas of the air ever known. Tt is good to know, in a way, that two of our favorite flags have been prayerfully tucked away in eafe keeping. Certainly they are enshrined in the hearts of all who served under them, espec- ially ir war, but also in peace. The new flag we salat: -It stands for CANADA. Settling Down Fayfield's Village Council is beginning to find that taking up the reins of office is a chore of no mean proportions, especially in view of the long backlog of detail work that does not hang so heavily on councils 'That have teen operative over a period of time rermitting routine matters to become such. Sere Council has found that there is no lack of proposals for • action, coming from all sectors of the community. Here Council is now becoming wary, because, unlike the Greeks of the old saying, they come not bearing gifts, but looking for grants, concessions, use of village property and so on. Councillor Oddleifson hit the nail on the head when he remarked a%cut a proposal at the rez:ular meeting Monday night that action on it might be setting an unwelcome precedent. Then too, this will be an onerous year with respect to setting up services and regulations which have long been commonplace in other centres which hare been in charge of their own local gover- nment for years. The Reeve continues to do an excellent job for the village, in the same fashion that he served the Ratepayers' Association. The Councillors too are doing a good job too--and they had better. All their works will be under intense scrutiny by the public and press, due to the keen civic interest which has been, whipped up by the re-incorporation campaign. Council really has a tiger by the tail. We hope they don't get bogged down before the ballot box rattles again I COUYCIL... (Cont. from Page One) situation. Council expressed itself as being "in sympathy" with the principal of exacting revenue from outside businesses which com- rete with local busin- essmen who pay busin- ess taxes, but council wished more informatio as to how such a bylaw might apply, and what the results might be in respect to both permanent and summer residents. Dependable Service Phone 524-8386 EDWARD FUELS 202 Anglesea, Goderich 44, NEW HOUSE DESIGN — Archi- tect John Bird, of Westmount, Quebec, designed this large, three- bedroom brick veneer split-level house. The split-level house is a relative newcomer to the Canadian housing scene and embodies some of the advantages of the bungalow and the two-storey house. One feature over the two-storey type is that there are only six or seven steps between floors which makes for less stren- uous stair climbing. An advantage over the bungalow is the greater separation between the sleeping and living areas. In addition, the split- level type of house is most useful in solving the problems presented by a sloping lot. The garage of this particular house is at grade level and seven steps lead up to the front door. The living room is to the front of the house. Behind it and seven steps lower are the family room and the kitchen. The bedrooms are eight steps up from the living room. The ceiling of the living room is at the same height as the bedroom ceilings. The basement, which contains heat- ing and storage, extends only under the living room. The best orientation would be for the left side to face north. The floor area is 1,735 square feet, excluding the garage, and the exterior dimensions are 35 feet by 36 feet six inches. Working draw- ings for this house, known as Design 762, are available from Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation at minimum cost.
