with the warmth of the Friendly Fuel
Children are too busy playing to remember
their slippers! But you needn't worry about
sniffles . . . not if you're heating your home
with Natural Gas, the Friendly Fuel.
Natural Gas gives you constant, control-
lable temperature all through the house,
night and day. With Natural Gas the fresh
warm air is circulated throughout your home,
and stagnant air is carried away. With
Natural Gas equipment, there are fewer
moving parts. So operation is quiet and
maintenance is low. And Natural Gas service
has always been free!
Install a Natural Gat furnace now, when
top trade-in allowances are available—and
you have up to five years to pay. And if he
forgets his slippers, so what ? All he needs for
his health is an apple a day.
Home-owners are happier with Natural Gas

A letter from. the Ontario Pe,

the river banks, and so the
south fill slope must be protect-
ea.
Two suggestions were sub-
mitted to council on halting the
possible erosion. First, the
banks could be built up with
stone or blocks of concrete.
Council felt the cost of this
'method would he, prohibitive.
The second suggestion dealt
with sloping the banks at three
or four to one, and cover the
.slope with vegetation (probably
grass). Reeve Thompson felt
this latter suggestion would be
more in line with township fin-
ances.
Council did feel large rocks
or hunks of concrete would be
necessary at the two diversion
points of the river, This ma- •
terial would be much better
and more stable in diverting the
water. Council agreed tender
specifications should include the
degree of slope required and
the stones could be put in a
separate step.

The reeve stated that the
charge would be by installation.
Councillors agreed With this
,and CoPneillor Varlet' added'
each family should pay their
water hill. He inferred the
landlord should not have to
carry on payments While the
aPartrnent is vacant.
The net result was that coun-
cillors decided water hills
should be Paid only when a
family is using water,
Council passed a resolution
instructing the township en-
gineers to Make a survey for a
drain for Brucefield. Residents
have been having trouble' with
water in their cellars. It will
be called the Swan Drain,
Council learned no subsidy is
available for the drain because
it does not drain agricultural
land, but did learn the DHO
will put it across the highway,
Looking ahead to winter,
council decided to call for ten-
ders on snowplowing. The ten-
dens, to be opened at the Sep-

The township has spent $11,-
