OPITON. 111VWS,MCORI) "*• Deputy Reeve Melvin Crick was Welcomed back to council on Monday night by Mayor Burton A, Stanley, Mr. Crich had been absent for several months due to illness, B, A. Davidson spoke for the Pentecostal Church on Victoria Street, In recent rains the base- ment flooded, and piano was sp- oiled and floor ruined, Main wat- er line was bent, where it ent- ered the church. Services have be- en cancelled in the basement for some weeks. Mayor Stanley told of a phone call from Ken Sweigard, former pastor, who recalled that the tile was all right when they started to build. Town councillors check- ed it then and agreed with Mr. Sweigard that it was in good con- dition Mayor Stanley said he felt it was heavy equipment on top of the drain at time of building that broke the tile. Streets men have now repair- ed the tile and Mayor Stanley said another was planned in that area to help the situation. Another spokesman for the ch- urch felt that it was not the ch- urch's fault. He felt it was caused by plugged drains, catch basins not cleaned out properly, and go- od gutters pat along the streets funneling more water in their direction than could be handled by one drain. Reeve W, J. Miller noted that this area was a natural water course, and a drain had been there for many years before the church was built "But," said the Reeve, "I believe the town was lacking when they gave a permit for the church to be built over the chain." The delegation promised to make further investigation of the matter. Licenses Transferred Licenses to retail tobacco and cigarettes, to operate two pin- ball machines and a poolroom were authorized transferred from Reg Cudmore to James Armstr- ong. Tag Day The Canadian National Instit- ute for the Blind will bold a tag day on October 3. Band Request A recent request for a grant from George Wonch for the Clin- ton Concert Band was received.

CORNISH, Proprietor HU 2-6646 — CLINTON A.Rli••• Your criticism falls along two lines : (1) Instructors teaching the "Learn to Swim" class from the deck of the pool. The Red Cross Instructor's Manual and "common sense" tells one that this is the proper place from which to in- struct, because from this position the instructor is able to observe the action of ALL the children in his class. A "demonstrator", which we supplied in the first few clas- ses, may enter the water to de- monstrate skills to the class. (2) Concerning tests to "Learn to Swim" classes. There is no Red Cross tests for this group. Our staff decided to test them for swimming distance only in order that each child could be more ac- curately placed in a class the next season. As our staff consists of humans, and anyone should admit that a human is prone to error, we can only say that we are sorry for causing you such incon- venience as you stated. However we would like to point out that our staff of instructors consists of four; three have their "leader's" and one has her "in- structor's" qualifications, Further- more, to satisfy some rural enrol- ment during our registration day for classes we changed their nam- es on class lists no less than three times. We also feel that we have un- dergone some little inconvenience which we feel is our duty to digest and to attempt a solution. In closing, these few facts may illustrate some success which we have had this season, and with such close scrutiny no doubt next year will be even mare successful.

(Signed) SWIMMING POOL STAFF. Clinton, Ontario September 9, 1959 He will be notified that an as- sociation must be formed to ad- minister the affairs of the band before money may be granted. Approximately $1.34 from the old band account was given to the swim pool with the rider that it would be available if a band were started An association will need to be formed before this money is paid over, A grant will have to wait for next year's Council's pleasure. A by-law is on the books passed by a vote of 298-105 (some years ago) authorizing payment of a grant (no sum mentioned). PUC Building Advice was received from A. Laurie Colquhoun that the PVC building has been sold to Alan Galbraith, effective September 30 and that the new owner would require use of area now occup- ied by the ladies rest room by that time. Drain Problems Reeve Miller congratulated E. E Gibson on a well written let- ter complaining of drain prob- lems at his corner. Mr, Miller said work has already begun th- ere and he hoped it would soon be in hand. "This is another case of building a house over a drain." Lavis Construction Company Limited have a job at Station Clinton to finish before beginn- ing on streets in town. Reeve Miler foresaw a change in the system of garbage dispos- al in the not too distant future. He expected complaint by the health authorities, or the people living out there Mayor Stanley commented that there had been tons and tons of cucumbers going out to the du- mp. The company handling these were agreeable to looking after these properly, but the garbage collector was not in agreement. "I've favoured town garbage col- lection for some years," said the Mayor, "the sooner the better". Reeve Miller suggested using salt on Toads this winter instead of sand, for the sand just seemed to end up in the catch basins. Reply of council was that sand was needed to get grip on hills. Cost of nursing home care in health and welfare report totalled $459.25 80 per cent of this cost is returned from the province and 10 per cent from the county. Questions asked by Deputy Re- eve Mel Crich brought forth the information that work on the fountain problem has been left over until a later time. This year money available was to go into the ladies rest room.. Another query about the rental housing project was answered that no word had been received regard- ing award of tenders on these. Investigation is being made on rental of ‘a recorder for the police office This machine will hold up to ten messages at a time, taken on the phone, and can be played crack later. A recorder is in use at Seaforth Police Office. It is a solution to the problem of re- ceiving phone calls when police- men are out of the office. Street signs posts are to be painted yellow by councillors and volunteers next week. PUC, Un- ion Gas and Bell Telephone men will be asked to attend while holes are dug for the posts. Building permits were approv- ed as follows: J. H Ellwood, garage, $400; Mrs. Harry Bart- liff, addition, $1,800; D. Thorn- dike, sunporch, $400; P. Towne, garage, $300; R. Mitchell, house, $6,000 A quiet atmosphere in pleasant surroundings And a trained competent staff. BALL & HUTCH FUNERAL SERVICE AMBULANCE SERVICE Phone HU 2-9441
