It is a Bombardier Ski-Doo, a mechanized snow toboggan which is becoming popular with sportsmen, trappers and guides in the north. By the time this is read we may have snow to properly de- monstrate the new machine, which is not a toy but a real piece of equipment, said George Campbell, a clerk at the Epps store.

The smorgasbord dinner was supervised by the UCW presi- dent, Mrs. Doug Andrews, and Mrs. Milton Steepe, social con- vener and her committee. The crowded recreation room was indicative of the congrega- tion's interest and a satisfaction to the chairman of the public- ity committee, Mr. William Hearn, and to the United Church Women who had consti- tuted the phoning committee. Mr. Leslie Ball, chairman of the contact committee, remind- ed the visitors of the import- ance of the task they are to undertake next Sunday- after- noon and urged them to per- form their' work as faithfully and enthusiastically as possible.

He reported the youths were using vulgar and profane lan- guage, and that there had been two "brawls" on the st- reet, in which two youths had received injury. It was also noted that -the "mobbing youths" made it dif- ficult for pedestrians to pais. "It's too bad when you can't walk down the street without having to barge your way through and have the fear of these characters jumping you," he commented, Wonch also said he would like to see fewer 'warnings" included in the police report given to council. "Some of these fellows are old reliable offenders," he said. Commenting on the discus- sion held by council, Chief H. R. Thompson explained that two men are on duty from 10:00 to 2:00 each night of the weekend. He explained that only one man had been on duty last week due to the fact Constable Clarence Perdue was on holi- days. The officer also remarked Flowers Telegraphed Anywhere Reeve Chastised After Town Men Remove Shingles (Continued From Page One) However, in an apparent move to end the discussion, he told Rumball he would be wil- ling to pay for the expense in- curred by the town. He also warned Rumball that he "had better tread the straight and narrow". Earlier in the debate, Ag- new said he was "sick and tired of people spying on me!!. He charged that Rumball had received his information from his "little henchman", but did not divulge any names, '• "I don't have a henchman," Rumball replied to that. Bylaw Coming Connell received another let- ter from Dr. T. R. Milady, Hur- on County health unit, who ex- plained that the lawyers were still working on the proposed animal control bylaw. The letter pointed out this would be a "tricky" piece of legislation to enact and it was being considered very carefully. Dr. Milday said the delay would be in the best interests of good legislation. He noted that a case would Lc ndesboro Lady Wins Store Draw Mrs. Eva Welbanks, Londes- horo, won the portable televis- ion set in the draw staged this week by the Wholesale Furni- ture and Appliance Store, Al- bert Street, Clinton.

I On this continent the third Sunday of November (this year, Nov. 17) is traditionally recog- nized as Stewardship Sunday. The holding of a congrega- tional dinner is a standard me- thod of creating an esprit de corps in the church and offers a favourable opportunity to ac- quaint the members and ad- herents with the needs of the church. Wesley-Willis held its con- gregational dinner last night; Ontario Street has slated its dinner for Noverriber 20, and Holmesville for Friday evening, November 29. `Stewardship is nothing other than the responsible practice of the Faith we profess," af- firmed Mr. Park last night at Wesley-Willis. "Why then does the challenge of stewardship so often meet with resistance, and why is the challenge so often presented with a sense of em- barrassment?" he asked. "Can it be because real stew- ardship means so much more than the pledge of financial support to the church, or is it because there can be no genu- ine stewardship without that support? Or is it because men resent demands they are reluc- tant to meet?" Christian Reformed Church REV. L.

Rowdyism in Clinton came up for discussion at Monday's session of council, and coun- cillor George Wonch noted that one policeman on duty over the weekend was not enough. He said he felt two men should be on duty until 3:00 a.m. on the three days of the weekend. The councillor pointed out that youths were continually milling around the Maey Mee Restaurant, and that he had received complaints from a Highway Job Takes Big Jump In Estimates (Continued from page one) The Toronto firm did soil. tests, traffic counts and also' examined the present drainage system as to the need for im- provements. They recommended a section of highway 22 feet wide from the easterly limits to 500 'feet east of Percival Street, increas- ing to 32 feet from this point to Gibbings Street 'and widen- ing further to 40 feet from Gibbings to Orange. From Orange Street to the west limits of Clinton, it would limit would be a curbed section. The remainder would only be resurfaced to match the exist ing conditions, Due to the results of the soil tests, the engineers recommend a complete reconstruction job on most of the highway, and in some sections report that 28 in- ches of granular base course class "B" gravel should be us- ed. This is due to the fact the subsoil east of highway 4 con- sists of frost-susceptible clay loams and the subsoil west of highWay 4 consists of very frost-susceptible silty loams to silty clay loams, • Adequate Corner A traffic survey was taken by the firm at the main inter- section from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00, p.m. on September 4 of this year and the survey shows that the existing capacity of the in- tersection is adequate for 1963 conditions. They recommended that only minor changes in the phasing of the traffic control lights be made. The firm report the proposed reconstruction will make the capacity of the intersection ade- quate for 1983 conditions, pro- vided the phasing of the traf- fic lights is altered to suit the conditions. Most of the recommendations in the report were made by the firm after they had project- ed conditions to what they be- lieve they will be in 20 years. There was little discussion held on the proposal by council and each member was given a copy to study. The engineers stated they would ask the departmen't of highways when a definite de- cision 'would have to be made to get the project included on the coming year's budget. 0 6. Newton Davies Former Tailor A former Clinton tailor, George, Newton Davies, who moved to Goderich eight years ago, was buried in Maitland Cemetery, Goderich, on Thurs- day, He died in Alexandra Marine and General Hospital following a lengthy illness, Mr, Davies was born in Clin- ton in 1877 and was a member of the, Clinton Branch 140 of the Royal Canadian Legion, as well as the Clinton Lions. In Goderich, he was a mem- ber of North, Street United Church and the funeral was conducted by the minister of that Church, Rev. W. 3, ten The deceased was single and is survived by two sisters, /gee and 13essie Davies, both of Goderich, ,,Ftirieral arrangements were by Stites funeral hot,* that, the ,"warnings" issued were generally to strangers in town, or far minor infractions. He said charges and not warnings were issued to the "reliable offenders". Pull Oat Signs Mayor Miller also noted that several sign posts had been pulled out in Clinton and ques- tioned if it would be possible to have the posts anchored in cement. He reported it was costing quite a bit of money to replace the signs. In other business council: Learned that total tax ar- rear for the past three years was $10,640.79. Issued building permits to V. M. Finnie for a $600. gar- age; Mrs. Mel Crich, $400 for sunporch; Miss Aphra Steepe, $8,000 house; Mrs. Margaret Burns, $350 carport. Authorized the clerk to turn over the provincial grant of $647.50 to the Clinton Recre- ation Committee. The grant for the Committee had been received on Saturday, but must be passed through the town's books. Mr. Pegg also reported men were already working on the removal of some of the old equipment and that work on the installation would begin as soon as this was done. Another executive of Sher- lock-Mannig, Caryl Draper, pointed out they had visited several factories in an effort to determine what solution would be most practical and feasible. He also pointed out that the hand feeding method now em- ployed was one of the reasons for the soot, pointing out that each of the four firemen at the plant had a different technique. "Are you blaming the fire- men?" Mrs. Bell-Chambers questioned. When Mr, Draper reported that he was to some extent, she replied that the firm must have had the same firemen working continually for the past two years, She pointed out the smoke had appeared to be on Tues- day, but added that this may have been due to the fact Mr. Gould was around. Several members of council expressed the opinion that the firm appeared to be moving as quickly as feasible in an effort to alleviate the problem, "I think they're quite honest in their intentions," stated councillor Alice Thompson. Mr. Pegg stated he would in- form council when the work was completed, and invited them to tour the factory some time. Tough Job At the conclusion of the meeting, Mayor Miller question- ed Mr. Gould as to what would be entailed if .the municipality decided to draft an air pollu- tion bylaw. He reported an air pollution inspector would have to be ap- pointed by council and would have to be trained. "He'd have quite a job on his hands," he stated, adding that he would also have to control all factories, public buildings, the use of backyard incinerat- ors and the burning of leaves. "It would involve quite a bit of expense," he concluded "as it's more than a part-time job."

The pollution expert pointed out that smoke was actually waste heat, and that the less, smoke there was, the better it would be for the factory. In answer to another ques- tion, he said the smoke could not be filtered' as the filter would only clog up and cause an explosion. Noting that the firm had al- ready started to remove an old boiler in preparation for the in- stallation of the new equip- ment, he said he felt that a good effort was being made. "You'll have to give them time," he stated. Rev. C. Park Officiates At Alma College The first phase of a three- stage expansion and moderniza- tion program at Alma College was officially dedicated Sunday by Rev. Clifford G. Park, Clin- ton, president of the London conference of the United Church. Approximately 300 persons plus college students, crowded the school's new Timken ath- letic centre for the ceremony. The recently-completed $300,- 000 wing has four classrooms and the athletic centre. The centre was described by J. Fred Green, St. Thomas architect; as one of the finest and best equipped gymnasiums in West- ern Ontario. The Timken firm, through its Timken International Fund contributed $50.000 toward the centre. "The new centre and new classrooms are sources of pride to all of us," said H. T. War- ren, chairman of the building committee, "It's 'a wonderful dream come true," said Mrs, Steele Sifton, College principal. Congregational visitations will be launched next Sunday after, 42011 in at least two. local .chtir,... ches—Wesley-Willis and On- Utile Street United Churches. Holmesville will begin a couple of weeks later and.Aubium will initiate its eampaign about the same time.

Council also received a letter from Woodstock council asking them to endorse a resolution re- cently passed in that city in regard to the establishment of "depressed areas" by the feder- al government. There has been much bitter debate over the situation in that area after Brantford was named in this category. The Woodstock resolution said that in the more economic- ally sound areas, such as South Western Ontario. the designa- tion of depressed areas be dis- continued. It went on to say that if any community is in need of financial assistance and will apply for same, a fund for such purpose be established under federal government auspices. Clinton council decided to file the letter without any action. "I don't think we'd carry mu c h weight," commented Reeve Agnew. "We might get involved," ad- ded councillor Alice Thompson.
