W. .COUNTER BUILDERS' SUPPLIES' Albert Street:. Clinton, Ont. Phone: HU. 2.9612.. Bay field,, Were Little Rivers Ire Friday's Storm; Basements Flooded (ley our Apytielq correspondent) The thunder crashed,. the wind blew, , the heavens opened . • , the water poured forth „ That is the story of the storm in this vielnity last Friday afternoon,. Main Street West is said to have been a roaring river, At the height of the rain the writer was not -en- joying sitting, outside the. Bank of Montreal, and she• must have looked rather ridiculous sit- ting there with' a white Milan straw hat on top of her head. The only consolation was that probably no one noticed it in the downpour. when she arrived home having safely traversed lakes of water ev- er the road between here And Clin- ton in a ear piloted by her sister, and having seen the water. flowing down the' roadsides between , the 4th and '6t1Oesencessions, like unto the Red River, she heard tales' of the twister which just missed Bay- field, • The water stood' like lakes dn the village and is still standing be. tween the new school, and the town hall. It seeped into basements which had never had water in them before, The general rhythm of the village is still that of the sump pump. The village trustees acted quick- ly to gravel the west part of How- ard Street .between Tuyll and the lake where great seams were eong- ed. out by the run-off. And what of, the drainage system in Bay- field—at least what is left of it? Again it could not cope with the flood waters and as .a result the cave-in at the triangle et Charles, Delevan and Chiniquy Streets en- larged. The new portion of drain Which was installed last fall at 4-4-* the wa5t-encl. of Pelevaxi, and on did not function properly, Why? As we predicted, some of the tiles get broken, some out .of line in quicksand. Now they will have to be Jigged up again, • Perhaps the genera' public will be convinced that the engineer knew .what he was talking about when he advised a large closed tile with catch basins for this part where so much water meets. And if the roadway caves in and some- one is injured, (whether the police village of Bayfield .carries nsur ante or not) perhaps the voices which were raised against so much money ,bane spent Oleo proper drain being built last year, and swayed the village trustees to a cheaper installation will whistle another tune. We aSit you, ratepayers of Ray- field, would it not be wise to have an overall plan for drainage, pre- pared by a reputable engineer and set aside a sum each year to have a portion of this -completed? Even if it is very expensive, isn't it bet- ter than puddling along without any plan, filling in cave-ins, and- digging up clogged drains? Another angle to be considered is that the water level is very high in the soil here now. Also a great many spetie tanks have been in- stalled in the village. If the water veins become polluted, it will cost dearly, Ah,'. well, we were brought up with the instruction; "If a 'thing's worth doing at all, it's worth do- ing properly," and the old adage still rings in our ears, "The dear- est is often the cheapest in the long run." 4.11-10-40-4.40-•-40-41.
