.norninated," Mr, Smith told the
crowd, "I .didn't know the Vile
agers thought enough of Me to
nominate me for a position en
council. I will say only that if
ran lucky enough to get on
will do the best I can for you."
Urges Attendance
Mr. .Flowers ,said the atten-
dance at the nomination meet-
Was good. would like to
see, as many of you out to coun-
cil meetings as are here to-
night," he said. 'Whether I am
elected to council or not I will
be at the council meetings."
Mr. Bell/chamber said his nine
years in the village "make me a
fairly recent newt:timer, but we
have built a home here and have
tried to take an 'interest in the
community, That's • how I got
involved with the Boy Scouts
of Canada as District Secre-
tary, and through this work I-
have had the ,opportunity to
meet many of you."
The candidate said he and his
family came to Bayfield from
Amherstleurg, Ont., a Lake Erie
town near Windsor which ser-
ved a dual role as suburb-re-
sort, and town, and which was
similar in this respect to Bay-
field:
Need Improvements
Speaking of Bayfield, Mr.
Belle/hat-ober said "We have to
make some improvements here,
but I see no need to spoil the
planning of the village.' If I am
elected I will do my best to
press for !the right kind of ixn-
provemenits Tor Bayfield."
Candidate Joseph Allaire said
he felt Bayfield is. "probably
my last hope . . . of where T.
will, end up, and I am, pleased
the village has accepted me."
Management in municipal af-
fairs is needed, he said, "and
don't let anybody hoodwink you
into 'believing that we can cut
taxes, or do away with them
altogether: If you can hang on-
to the mill rate you'll be lucky,
but I 'think a lot can be done
with proper management. -
Fight For Bayfield
"I'm not suggesting I'm the
manager, but I have . sat on
municipal councils for . nine
years." Mr. 'Allaire said "who-
ever you elect to council, I will
be here to help fight for every-
thing we can get for Bayfield.
"I don't want laurels. I Want
nothing. I want to keep Bay-
field as it is: If I can help to
do this I will be happy to rep-
resent you."
Mrs. Hopson, the only woman
candidate in the race, said Bay-
field was always first in her
4:hi:nights. "I -agree - with Mr.
Allaire," she said; "there - will
always be taxes because I have
always believed you get just
what you pay for. Mr. Allaire
said. all I wanted to say,
Sturgeon Uncertain
"I -have lived in a.. good many
places," she concluded, "but this
'is my home"
Jack Sturgeon was the only
candidate uncertain as to -whe-
ther he would seek office. "It's
a little too Sudden to make any
decision, so I don't think I
have any comments to make at
this time," he said.
Mr. Merner was called on to
say a few words in connection
with his acclamation RS' the
village's school area trustee,
No Green 'Group
"I have been. proposed for
the job twice, and elected
once," he laughed. "I don't
know really what to say about
that. I would like to say, how-
ever, that I have had nine years
experience as as school trustee,
and I think all the other Stan-
ley Township trustees have also
