district . , . led to an estimate of
150 deer shot in his area during
the recent hunting season
Gond news as well . , . no report
of accidents to persons . nor
damage to stock as a result of the
open season... That should bode
well for future That

300 hunters were out each day of
the season and he figures
that about one in ten hunters got
their deer .

rWEATHERMAN SEEMS TO
have dealt its usual blow on No-
vember 11 .. , Somehow the sunny
Remembrance days are few and
many years between .. , Probably
that is all just as well ... If the
folk who attend the services and
observe the day as- it should be
observed , . are just a good bit
uncomfortable . . ."they will be
more apt to recognize the discom-
fort of those folk they are re-
membering . .

HENSALL HUNTERS HAD A
quite successful trip into Bay
Township swamp... the 26 men
spent four days hunting and
managed to bag 17 deer and five
red foxes ... Doesn't seem quite
fair for the fox to have a deer
season running at the same time
as their own. • . It would seeem
to us that they'd stand a better
Chance of surviving if they Could
have a few days all to themselves
_After all the appeal to a hun-
ter of getting a freezer full of fox
meat would be no allure at all
compared to venison -

THERE'S A BIT OF GRUMB-

they came to the News -Record of-
fice .originally they were quite .Ac-
ceptable . . well laden with pie

Assessor Appeals
Court's Decision
An appeal entered against the
Court of Revision of the Town of
Clinton by the county assessor
Alex Alexander will be heard in
the court room in the old public
school on Tuesday afternoon, No-
vember 24. This appeal concerns
a business assessment easement
sustained by the. court of revision
at its sitting on September 25.
On that date three garages,
Lorne Brown Motors, McPherson
Bros. and Murphy Bros. appealed
their assessment which this year
for the first time was at 35 per
cent rather than 25 per cent, on
the grounds that they were essen-
tially in the business of car -selling
and therefore should be classed as
retail merchants.
Choose Town Hall For
Nomination Meetin
Both Reeve J. W. Nediger and Deputy Reeve M. Crich
signified their intention, if nominated, to stand for their
some positions for another year, They were the only•mem-
bers of council who declared themselves at the last meet-
ing of that body before nomination day.on November 20.
Nomination meeting will be held in the auditorium of the
town hall, since the capacity of the present council cham-
ber in the old public school estimated at 120 persons, was
ueemed not large enough,
Councillor Burton Stanley re-
ported that the furnace at the
town hall hadbeen cleaned thor-
oughly, a fire had been lit, and it
had been found that the auditor-
ium could be heated satisfactorily,
"I feel myself that it would be
the proper place," said Councillor
Stanley,
Councillor M. J. Agnew express-
ed the belief that without doubt
the auditorium would have to be
used. "With the publicity this
question has received, we'll prob-
ably have more people at nomina-
tion meeting this year. I under-
stand that that furnace can be
fixed for $300. Now have we been
fooled that badly?"
On motion of Coun. Stanley sec-
onded by Deputy Reeve M. Crich,
it was decided that nomination
meeting would be held in the aud-
itorium of the town hall.
Reeve Nediger stated that he
woslld stand again for reeve. Since
he had been appointed to the roads
committee as the first urban mem-
ber, and that next year he was in
line to be chairman of that com-
mittee, he would like to have the
opportunity of that year. m "It is
the committee that spends the
most money, and there is some
honour connected with it. Clin-
ton has never had a member there
before, and I would like to repre-
sent Clinton on the•board another
year."
Deputy Reeve Crich stated that
he would like to see Mr, Nediger

Remembrance Day services
Well Attended Yesterday
Despite cold drizzly weather
yesterday morning the Remem-
brance Day service in the Legion
Memorial Hall, Kirk Street, was
well attended. Well over 300 per-
sons gathered in the hall to take
part in the service conducted by
members of the Clinton Minister-
ial Association. •
Rev. J. E. Ostrom gave the
prayer of invocation', Rev. D. J.
,Lane led in the responsive read-
ing of Psalm 46; Rev. A. G. Eagle
read front the scriptures and Rev.
IL C. Wilson led in prayer. The
address was given by Rev. R. M.
P. Bulteel, who based his remarks
upon the theme, "Remembrance"
and on the parable where the
words, "Son, remember,' are used.
Mr. Eulteel presented the thought
that the situation in the world to-
day was a result of the passivity
and the forgetfulness of people. He
called upon his hearers to place
their hope in God, in whom they
would find protection and strength.
After the benediction by Rev, D.
J. Lane, the National Anthem was
sung, and the parade formed up
outside the hall for the march to
the cenotaph. The RCAF Station
'Bugle Band led a company of air-
men and one of airwomen, follow-
ed by members of Clinton Branch
No, 140, Canadian Legion, the
Ladies' Auxiliary, members of the
Noisy Scouts Troops and Cub Packs
of the RCAF Station and of Clin-
nal, as well as representatives

wreaths later at the cenotaph.

Tentative approval of suggested plans for a seven-
room addition to the Clinton District Collegiate institute
has been received by the CDCs board from the Deport-
ment of Education. On Monday night the board received
assurance from the council of the town of Clinton that
the town was prepared to issue the needed debentures to
cover the cost of erecting the addition, provided there was a
100 per cent support from the other seven municipalities
in the area,
Dr. 3, A. Addison presented to The cost of retiring a debt of
the CDCI board at the Tuesday $45,000 over a period of 20 years
evening regular November meeting would amount to approximately
the problems in presenting the $70,000, or $3,500 each year until

now enrolled in primary schools mills.
within the district, it is expected
that the enrolment in CDCI will
be 430.
Since the collegiate is already
overcrowded these extra pupils
would have to be accommodated
in churches in the town, or in oth-
er available buildings. The total
expense for the operation of such
classrooms would be borne by the
district. The only other alternat-
ive would be a double bus sched-
ule and a staggered class system,
whichrict. would increase the trans-
portation cost, and again the total
cost would be borne by the dist-
By building an addition to care
for the extra pupils, the province
of Ontario will at present pay a
grant of 75 per cent of the cost.
Estimating the cost of the seven
room addition, which will include
two classrooms, one library class-
room, two science laboratories, one
shop room and one home econom-
ics room, at $180,000, the district's
share of the cost would be approx-
imately $45,000 at the present
rate of grant.
Dr. Addison suggested that each
of the board members should ape.
proach the councillors of his own
municipality and attempt to place
the matter clearly before them.
An attempt .was to be made to get
approval from the councils of
Blyth, Stanley, Hullett, Goderich
Township, Tuckersmith, East
Wawanosh and Morris before the
next meeting of the board, so that
action on the addition could be
taken as soon as possible:

Urban Councils Will Urge
Wider Use Rental Housing
Representatives of the urban municipalities of Huron
County met in the old public school here on Tuesday even-
ing and passed a resolution urging that Huron County
ask the department of Planning and Development and the
provincial 'government, to take up with the federal gov-
ernment the matter of reducing or removing the minimum
population requirement for municipalities to enter into
the rental housing field.
At present, only municipalities
with populations of 5,000 or over
may enter into rental housing a-
greements. In the county, Clinton,
Exeter, Wingham, Seaforth, Blyth,
Hensall and Brussels all fall in
the under 5,000 population class.
Goderich is the only urban centre
that has been able to take advant-
age of the rental housing scheme.
Dr. E. A. McMaster, mayor of
Seaforth, expressed the interest of
his town in the matter, and men-
tioned the fact that at present the
housing in Seaforth is such that if
a new industry were to locate in
town it would be difficult to find
accommodation for extra people.
Members of the Chamber of Com-
merce, with the Seaforth Council
and A. Y. McLean, former member
of parliament, were to meet on
Wednesday in Seaforth to discuss
the matter.
Clinton as well recognises the
need for extra housing in the
town. At the council meeting held
Monday night, Mayor W. J. Miller
urged all members of the council
to attend the meeting Tuesday,
stating, "It looks as if small places
have been discriminated against".
Besides the mayor, deputy reeve
M, Crich, Clerk L. D. Holland and
Robert Irwin, Planning Board, at-
tended from Clinton.
Other officials at the meeting
were A. W. Kerslake, reeve of
Hensall and warden of the county;
