Falconer Bros. and those pres-
ent thought !that the auctioneer
Bert Pepper had done an excellent
job, this! having been his: first sale,
Turner's Church Woman's As-
sociation also had a successful aft-
ernoon, selling hot dogs and ea-
fee,
"No one else in the world has
the opportunity we have aid Ont-
ario," went on the Premeir, "We
have a population growth that
leads' :America. The St. Lawrence
Seaway !which was talked of for
40 years is now in effect, All al-
ong this coast of Lake Huron
the effects :of !this development
will be felt.
"The greatest contribution to
'our growth' will' be the benefits
of cheap fuel. Probably the best
fuel known to man is natural' gas.
I have urged That project since.
:the beginning, and haste had
heartaches when' I felt the possib-
ilities of :this development would
fall through. The :arrival of that
great resource changes our pro-
vince to one with a hope for
secondary industry development.
We'll be able to process materials
that were not possible 'before."
Mr. Frost concluded with the
statement that he was no super-
man, and 'anything he had been
able to accomplish was through
the steady work of those "bright
young men" whom he was able
gather around him—and to this
group he wished greatly • to add
"this young fellow": Charlie Mac-
Naughton.
Mr. Frost was introduced by
Mr. MaoNaughton and was thank-
ed by Jim Donnelly, Goderich.
Included in the receiving line
Were Premier and Mrs. Frost;
James N. Allan, finance minister;
Mr. and Mrs. C. MacNaughton;
Elston Cardiff, Brussels.
Speaking briefly, Mr. Cardiff
commented, "That win on March
31. was remarkable. It may never
happen in Huron: again, unless
it 'does on Monday — it should
because you have :a better cand-
idate then than you did an March.
"I !think it would be good to
take the franchise from people
who don't vote. They don't de-
serve to have the franchise if
they don't use it."
Decorations' in the tea room
'carried out the theme of blue,
traditional colour for the conser-
vatives. Great white 'blooms of
Chrysanthemums and snapdragons
on the tea tables were flanked
by silver candelabras each with
five tall lighted blue tapers: and
smaller bouquets. 'Serviettes were
white to match the white linen
cloth, and were printed in blue,
Ladies drawn from the conservat-
ive party throughout the riding
poured, and served.
May I express my
grateful apprecia-
tion to all who sup-
ported me on Mon-
day, May 12.
I will do my best
in the interest of all
the people in Huron.

Premier Frost Confirms Hopes For
Hospital School Near Goderich
Town Council In Action
The eeMing of Premier Leslie
Frost to Goderich, no doubt right-
ly de: erves credit for e. .good
many of the votes which Charlie
MacNagighten received in Men-
day's by-election, The almost in-
formal reception and tea. served
:in the lovely OnvirenMeat of the
collegiate in the county town set
the note for A very enthusia,stle
feeling among The progressive con-
servative party followers.
Mr. Frost .spoke regretfully of
the fact that the meeting had to
be called because of the death
Of "dear old Tom Pude," "As as-
sistant to the party whip," said
Mr. Frost, "Toni helped me in
Many ways, He was proud to be
a Scotsman and a Presbyterian
and his :passing has left a very
great gap !indeed."
Referring to an editorial an the
Goderich Signal-Star which re-
lated the cause for doubt in the
location of the new proposed hos-
pital, Mr. Frost said, "Before
Tom Pryd'e's passing, I promised
him that it would be built and I
am glad to come here and con-
firm this fact. It will be erected
and will be proceeded with immed-
iately, 'three miles south of God-
Constrectioin will be be.
gun as soon :as possible,"
Mr. most mentioned' that it
would be of 1,30(3 bed capacity,
with the poesability of extending
it to' 2;200 !beds, He said, they
would, 'certainly consider, as they
had been requested, the possibility
of a joint waterworks SYStern
With the town of Goderich,
"Also," went on Mr.. Frost, "it
was our intention that Tom would
have had the honour of laying
the corner stone. It is our pleas-
tire that Mrs. Pryde will now
have that •h000ur."
"The dynamic growth of the
province is continuing," said Mr.
Frost, "and Huron will not be left
out. This' hospital school is only
one part of a 1g:iglu:Ale expansion
program in our hospitalization ac-
commodation throughout the pro-
vinee, in :which, 200' millions a year
is being spent. Among the many
facets of the plan are included
extension of homes for the aged,
for the chronic invalids, for men-
tal' patients, for TB patients."
Two requests were received re-
garding repairs to sidewalks, Ral-
ph
Oantelon,. who has purch-
ased the Stephenson house on
Street, asked that the side-
Walk in front of the house be
raised, The TOA Store preparing
to hard top the area around the
Store requested that the Sidewalk
be re-surfaced there,
Reeve Stanley reported that
'this latter walk was all right un-
tai they began construction and
the :equipment spoiled them. A
letter will be' sent !to the effect
that the store is responsible 'for
the, walks.
:Permission was given to Harold
King, lessee of the White Rose
service station, to retail tobacco
and cigarettes, This is the 29,t11
outlet in town,
council approved the expend-
dture of up to $50 for expenses
at the Mayors and Reeves con-
vention to be held in Stratford
:to which Mayor W. J, Miller and
Clerk John Livermore will go in
June,
Third reading was given, to By-
law No. 5 as amended. This gives.
the franchise for supplying nat-
ural gas in the town to Union
Gas Company.
By-law No. to provide for
expenditures on roads and streets
was given three readings. $15,000
was estimated for roads construc-
tion in 1958.
Tenders' wild 'be called on the
laying of 3" hot mix on Percival,
Princess and Rattenbw'y streets,
24 feet wide plus guttering where
necessary. Reeve Stanley urged
proper finishing and laying of
sidewalks through former gully
on Princess! Street next to 'the
collegiate. Percival Street will be
left until last and will be done
if funds are available.
:Councillor Beattie asked that
calcium be ordered now and "a!,
least" have it on hand. Councillor
Irwin said, "We should be using
it now. They'rs grumbling all over
town about, the dust,"
Councillor Beattie commented
that it was either "eat dust now
or in August and September; un-
less we keep .at it."
Only two places found insecure
last month. The police report that
the reason so few were reported,
is due to the fact they no longer
called merchants early in the ev-
ening, but waited until 3 o'clock
in the morning. They must then
come down to lock ,up themselves.
It's a sure cure, apparently.
Building permits were 'author-
ized for C. H. Epps, storage build-
ing, $400; Alfred 'Kennedy, addit-
$500; W. S. Garrett, house,
$8,000; Z. Dielvli, sumporch, $300;

own, garage, $500.
Council Suggested need for ef-
fective by-law governing fire-
crackers. Faced with difficulty
of enforcing such a by-law, they
decided to postpone action for the
present
Mayor Miller noted great need
for houses in town' 'and hoped
for help in obtaining them with
government help. Housing is im-
possible in' Clinton and many
wishing to live here were not able
to find homes. "We should try
to find out what - we can do a-
bout it. Money is' supposed to be
getting looser than: it has' been,
and Clinton should get a share
of it.
"We could fill 50 houses here
in Clinton right now," said Reeve
Stanley. "I've had five people ap-
ply to me in one week,"
Mayor Miller said, "Well cod-
:orlon: actually circulated petition
here to see who would rent a
house in Goderich, They're induc-
ing people to go there 'to live."
Reeve Stanley predicted great
increase in need with the influx
of people to build and, service the
new hospital school,
Deputy Reeve N, W. Trewartha
suggested a .0munittee to look
into thliS, and also :to suggest to
County Council that the Cat Line
he made a modern road, It would
serve the new hospital and help

one which could well be consider-
ed in special Right.
John Sutter remarked on at
least 'five people he'd mot in the
last. week looking for a home.
"Three went 'to Seaforth and two
to Goderich. Another man, a trav-
eller, would hive here ilf he could

I think we should pry into this:

:Councillor Irwin, recalled e. del-
egation to see Mr. Werrender
-,and as a result Goderich got a
bunch of houses—the rest of us
wasted' our time. I would favour
a 'delegation again--hopeful that
they would view it in more fav-
ourable light.
Mayor Miller remarked' how dif-
ficult it would be to gain a Pop-
ulation of 5,000 unless we. do get
more houses', He suggested 'a del-
egation to stress: importance of
