Clinton News-Record, 1959-07-09, Page 10We are now in the midst of the holiday season with more cars than ever before on our highways. Ac- cidents are just that much more likely to happen. An interesting item came to my desk this week. One well known auto insurance company has been giving extra medical payment ben- efits to those who are total abst- ainers. This company is now will- ing to give double the extra cover- age and again at no increase in premium if you sign the total ab- stainers form. After two years of experience the company has found that non- drinking drivers have fewer accid- ents and they are less serious ac- cidents therefore more coverage can be given at no extra cost. We often complain about the high cost of auto insurance but let us remember it is the driver who sets the rate. Have fewer and less costly accidents and the Depart- ment of Insurance will see to it that the rates are reduced accord- ingly. At a meeting of farmers affect- ed by the Hydro line to be built from Seaforth to Clinton it was agreed that there was a deprecia- tion of re-sale value when a Hydro line crosses a farm. For this rea- son several refused to sign the con- tract offered by Hydro. Others stated that they had signed because the representative of Hydro stated that the Ontario Federation had approved the am- ounts offered and that the deprec- iation re-sale value would come un- der damages which would be set- tled for after the line was built. Beware of Fires While On Vacation Vacation time at summer camps and cottages brings with it every year the danger of forest fires caused by careless people unfamil- iar with the woods. The Ontario Department of Lands and Forests is appealing again to everyone to help preserve the province's beaut- iful recreation areas oy using every precaution with fire. The basic precautions against forest fires are simple enough: A ,lighted cigarette or cigar tossed flioughtlessly from a car window 'or on the ground While walking in the woods can start ! a fire,, A lunch fire left smouldering or not quite out is another common fire. hazard. Be sure camp and lunch fires are dead out—soak with wat- er, stir the ashes and , soak again to be' doubly sure. Be careful with fire. at all„times, in the woods. 0 Check Your Label — Hove You Renewed? The Ontario Federation of .Agri- crilture did approve the amounts offered but only as a minimum and only as a trial on the line to be built from London to Sarnia. This latter part was apparently forget- ten by the representative. The meeting decided that those who had not signed would continue to hold out and that those who had signed should make a claim for depreciation under damages, lilse information on the reactions of the farmers on London-Sarnia line should be obtained. This may seem to be of little interest to many but I have heard rumors of one water pipeline, a gas line and another Hydro line to be constructed shortly. One of these may cross your property. IturoWs Population Stands. at 41,201. According to the latest figures from the office of the County As- sessor A. Alexander, the paginat- ion of Huron County is steadily increasing. The present population, (not including the air stations). is 47,201, an increase or 181 over last year's total of 47,020. The largest factor in this rise is the' town of Goderich which has a pop. elation of 6,011, as compared to- last year's total of 5,785. The townships, however, showed a decrease. Usborne Township, for example, decreased 200 persons and most other townships show- ed a similar fall, Wingham was. the only town to suffer a decrease,. from 2,790 to 2,677, while towns, such as Clinton rose slightly over last year, F. of A.
