end they will bring in a re.'c-
ommendation. Mr. Noonan
asked for the clerk's, presence
'at meetings on the subject.
Mayor Donald Symons noted
that a ratepayer had remarked
to him that the reason there
was no nonsense on Halloween
was -that everywhere you look-
ed, there' was a policeman.
In the police budget there
is $4,645 left out of an esti-
mated yearly budget of $22,500.
Mayor Symons drew atten-
tion 'to a recent announcement

for a new truck next year, at
a cost of from $22,000 to

house it, at approximately
$10,000.
Mayor, Symons chastised the
committee for bringing to coun-
cil the need for a ($60) valve
grind on the fire truck, and
told them to get it done.Couli-
eillor Livermore noted that
when the Clinton fire truck is
in for repairs, neighbouring
fire chiefs should be alerted.

Industrialists will be offered
a choice site for location here,
after Clinton completes pur-
chase of nine acres on the Bay-
field Road, at a cost of $3,000.
Decision to purchase this was
Tuesday night when a by
was passed authorizing the
purchase.
The parcel of land 'is Lot 1,
H.R. Concession, of the town
of Clinton and Lot 35, Con-
cession 16 of Gocierich Town-
ship, It is the area south of
Corrie's Sales Barn, to the
CNR tracks. The parcel is the
one proposed several years ago
as site for the, Christian Re.-
formed School.
Money, surplus from the
planning board, $1,000 and
from the general government
committee, $2,000 will be used
to make the purchase.
Councillor H, F. Noonan re-
ported from a 'meeting of Mid-
Western Ontario Development
Association which he attended
last week, that he could not
see a delegation going to Cleve-
land or Chicago seeking indus-
trialists to locate in this area,
especially when the committee
which could go is made up of
representatives from all muni-
cipalities within Mid-WODA.
"Each representative would
be working for MS own town
or municipality," thought 1VIrr.
Noonan.
Councillor Noonan said he
had told the Mid-WODA group
that numbers oil people with
the Department of National
Defence were .down at Clinton
at present, and this is being
felt throughout the' whole area.
Council Will make sure that
lights, and ballasts installed at
the north end of town are new,
before they accept the respon-
sibility of maintenance 'on
them. There are four new
mercury vapour street lights
installed 'there that have re-
cently been hooked into the
town's street-lighting system.
Proctor and Redfern, the en-
gineering firm in charge of
planning changes in the town's
streets, advised council 'that an
estimated $245,000 would be
needed to rebuild Highway 4,
south from the old post office
to the bridge over the Bayfield
River.
Of this amount the province
will pay $220,500, with a bal-
ance of $24,500 left for the
town of Clinton,.
These prices are estimated,
and are for the purpose of get-
oiling tentative approval from
the Ontario Department of
Highways for the work and to
make sure that the province's
share of the funds is avail-
able.
A motion was passed auth-
orizing the payment of $19,-

for work done up •to October,

From ten until four yester-
day, top executives in agricul-
tural societies throughout Hur-
on and Perth, considered at
length, and also in depth, the
difficulties, pleasures and pro-
fits involved tin operating rur-
al fairs within these two. coun-
ties.
At this meeting of Zone 8,
Ontario Agricultural Societies,
(first 'one ever to be held in
Clinton) segregation was prac-
tised to some degree, with the
ladies meeting in the town hall
and the men in the agricultural
board rooms.
Earl Dick, Crornarty, as pre-
sident, convened the men's ses-
sions, while Mrs. Delmer Skin-
ner, Centralia, was in charge of
the session dealing with the
women's divisions of the fairs.
Doug Miles, agricultural re-
presentative for Huron spoke
to the men during the morning
session, and asked that they
look into the future, to see
what lies 'ahead for the fairs,
"We cannot succeed, merely by
going 'along with tradition," he
said.
"Fairs began as an educa-
tional feature," said Miles, "We
have to ask if our fairs are
put on for a show? to make
money? merely to keep alive?
We should look at the consti-
tution Of the Fairs Act, and
consider whether changes
should be made."
He asked, "How long can we
expect farmers to be away from
their farms, to work at some-
thing which may be only a
show? Labour is scarce, and
may get worse. Farmers may
not be able to attend all the
meetings of all the organiza-
tions."
"Last night and this morn-
ing, I believe we buried one
farm organization in Huron,"
said Mr. Miles, "and / eXpect
that in another four to six
months another five will be
bellied There may be one for-
med to replace these last five.
Farmers may Only be able to
find time to meet long enough
to form policies, and hire oth-
ers to carry out our wishes,"
he predicted.
"Farmers must be consigner
oriented, if we are to gain our
rightful place in the economy.
Maybe we have talked too
much about. our ability to pre,.
duce cheap food."
".I-.'ow long befere We east
have one 4-11 day in the Coun-
ty?" he asked.
"How long can we continue
charging 75 cents to $1.00 to
people who come to see our
small fairs? . and what are we
showing them for that much
money?"
However during the after-
noon session, there was no re-
presentative willing to concede
that 'small fairs should be am-
algamated with others, nor
that they were not doing a.
good job for the communities
in Which they operate.
Warden Rudolph Bauer,
Perth. County, urged continuing
fairs as "the show windows
of the farm industry". He pre-
dicted that a farm area with-
out a fair was like a city with-
out any downtown stores.
"Fairs are good'," said Bauer,
"as a way to advertise our
product,"
Another warning came from
a Mr. Switzer of the Kirkton
fair, who suggested that 4-H
club partieipation Was large
now, because the children were
not shy of showing in their
home community, but would
not attempt showing at a
county fair, br a larger fair
in another community.
Jim Rooney of the Mitchell
fair predicted that at a future
meeting, a debate on this topic
of "amalgamation of fairs"
Could be interesting. He sug-
gested that plenty of time for
preparation of material should
be given:, and then the !event
could have considerable weight.

meeting will be St. Marys.
