eutlieed the general du
ties of each committee, for the
benefit of the neve eoulicillors.
Deputy Reeve Morgan Agnew
asked of anyone wanted the
public works chairman.ship, and
get no =ewer, so he appealed
for co-oeeretion through the
year. He felt that the over-
spending last year was due to
under -estimating the cost of
work ta be <lane reeler than
by over-epending. "However,
ie people wait more work drone,
then we Must raise taxes," he
ended.
Cotinealler Symons spoke
briefly noting that be felt it
steedd be a Deadidea to move
Potee of the experienced coun,
cillors around es the commit-
tees more he had been on by-
laws for 'tee years.
A by-law was passed author-
izing the clerk to borrowup to
$110,000 to meet expenses until
taxes are collected.
Decision was reathed to pur-
chase copies of the Municipal
World for each of the council.
Reeve Crich made an appeal
for zoning for Clinton "We're
going to rim out of lots," said
he. "Planning should) take, the
surrounding townships into con-
sideration. There are many
buildings going up in Clinton
where they should not be, and
council has no control."
Deputy Reeve M, .Agnew sug-
gested this: be left with the in-
dustrial committee. Councillor
Wonch agreed that the week
was essential, and he was only
too glad to spearhead a morve
toward zoning for the town.
Councillor Symons made an
appeal for some fun& to be
set aside in the budget for the
year, expressly for the indus-
trial committee to spend. Mayor
Miller suggested giving the
committee the money which
had in previous years gone to
the Mid -Western Ontario De-
velopment As,sociation at 'Strat-
ford, which looks after indus-
trial promotion for the coun-
ties of Huron, Perth, Welling-
ton and Waterloo.
Reeve Crich contended that
aif you don't belong to Mid-
WODA, then you might just as
wen not haye an industrial
committee, •at all." He went
on, "We will have industry
soon, if we have ,patience."
Mayor Miller commented:that
an empty factory in Clinton
wated be occupied in the near
fature-athis won't exactly be
an industry, but it is for a
purpose," said the mayer."

Funeral services were largely
attended in Seaforth on Tues-
day in Northside United Church
there, when friends gathered to
pay their last respects to Sen-
ator William H, Golding. He
passed away in Scott Memorial
Hospital, on Sunday, Decem-
ber 31, •
Mr. Golding rested at the
Box funeral home until Tues-
day atternoon, when the Rev.
J. C. Britton officiated at ser-
vices' in the church. Interment
was in Staffa Cemetery, Hib-
bert Township.
Born in Hibbert Township on
April 14, 1878, the son of Henry
Golding and Sarah Annie Gold-
ing, he was married On January
28, 1913 to Elena Kenchen,
Owen Sound, who died in 1959.
Senator Golding represented
Huron -Perth as Liberal Mem-
ber of Parliament for 17 years,
and had been a member of the
Senate since 1949.
He was first elected to the
House of Commons in a 1932
by-election, after a long session
of public service in Seaforth.
He was a member of Seaforth
Town Council from 1916 to
1921, and mayor from 1921 to
1929.
Senator Golding was appoint;
ed deputy ehairrnan of the com-
mittees of the whole House in
March 1947, and served in that
post until 1949, when he was
called to the Senate. Under
Prime Minister Mackenzie King,
he was for many years chair-
man of the Liberal party cau-
cus, private meetings of party
members in the Senate and
House of Commons.

with our projector and slides
and reviewed our stay in Vic-
toria - that permanent sum-
mertime of Canada which is
said to be more English than
England. . We loved it, as we
love England where we were
privileged to spend a inonth
last summer re -visiting our old
home.
There is so much to enjoy in
Victoria. We couldret hope to
cover it in a weekend, but we
did see some of the highlights
with our hosts, the Venerable
and Mrs. John W. Forth, whose
home sits on the beach at Cor-
dova Bay.
We must tell you briefly a-
bout this remarkable man,

almost next door to the arena
where Les Canadiem held their
pre -season workouts this fall
And up the street we saw Ali
Saints Cathedral which includ-
es a robin and her nest in the
interior stone work. The story
is that a robin chose to rear
a brood et the top of one of
the lofty pillars in the nave as
the cathedral was being built,
and the workmen left her alone
until the young ones were able
to take -care of themselves -
then one of the stonemasons
commemorated this experience
in stone. How appropriate --
in a cathedral .
We had dinner at the quaint
