One of the nicest spots in the district, but often overlooked because it's so close to tome,
is Riverview Park, Exeter, which caters to 'many reunions each year. This view shows the
swimming area of the park which is always popular during the summer. Under manydlf-

It'sMuch, Much Too Late
To Fish On Main Street..
ey G.J. CARPENTER
Fishing in the, main street of
Exeter sounds like an unlikely
occupation, Nevertheless, at one
time this would have been pos-
sible, with the minor exceptions
that Exeter was not in existence
and man had not yet made his
appearance on the scene. We are
all too late to fish, but the evi-
dence of the finny denizens still
remains.
Four hundred million years
ago, perhaps a little earlier or
later, Southwestern Ontario . was
the. bed. of a .Palaeozoic sea,
Three times, millions of years
apart, the waters receded and
returned, leaving deposits of 'the
Ordovician, Silurian, and Devo-
nian periods on top of the origia-
nal Precambrian rocks, the ol-
dest in the world, that outcrop to
the north as part of the Cana-
dian Shield.
The maximum thickness of
these three layers of rock is
about 4,280 feet. Consider the im-
mense length of time necessary
for their deposition at the lei-
surely rate sediments Are laid
down in any body of water.
In local geological time the en-
tire area was glaciated and in
some places the bedrock is over-
lain, with 100 to 200 feet of gla-
cial debris. This material is ex-
posed in nearly every shallow
excavation in the area.
As interesting as the existence
of a Pa)aeozoie sea is in itself,
its effect on the area today is
of greater importance. South-
western Ontario is still harvest-
ing the benefits of a sea which
disappeared before the first man
trod .the earth.
First, oil in North America.
Southwestern Ontario can boa'st
nections .were well represented
at the reunioh in Queen's Park,
Stratford,: on Saturday.
Miss Olive Speare attended, the
funeral of a cousin, Mrs. Ralph
Speare, at Harriston on Monday.
A community picnic in honor
of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Eves
was held at Ipperwash Beach on
Friday,
Misses Muriel Scott and Mild-
red Howe returned home Sunday
from .a two-week visit with
friends at Jamestown, New York.
In 1943 there were 1,240 alco-
holics for every 100,000 adult
Canadians, and in 1956 the rate
of alcoholism was up to 1,850
alcoholics in every. 100,000 ' adult
Canadians. --

OP E NS AUG, 'S
of being among the first oil pro-
ducers oh the continent. In 185$
the embryo oil industry began
with the development of tarry
seepages .along Black Creek near
the village of Oil Springs. Natu-
ral gas was discovered in Essex.
County in 1889.
The depth of Ontario oil wells
is from 380 tw 500 feet and pro-
auce chiefly from the Devonian
limestone. Gas is found in a dif-
ferent zone, the Silurian, at a
greaterdepth
-
Natural gas and oil are only
the beginning of this area's mine-
ral riches. Southwestern Onta-
rio produces over 85% of .Can-
ada's salt. In 1886 the presence
of this mineral was discovered
at Goderich in a well drilled to a
depth bf 946 feet. The salt beds
are extensive and generally un-
derly 'Huron, Middlesex, L"amb-
ton, the western part of Elgin,
and lesser parts of Kent and
Essex Counties.
The salt comes from Silurian
deposits and the bedsmay reach
an aggregate thickness of nearly
60 feet.
The production of salt is a
simple but interesting process.
Wells are drilled, cased, and then
a central pipe of smaller diame-
ter is inserted. Fresh water is
introduced through the outer
tube and the brine pumped to
the surface through the inner
tube. Table salt is made by eva-
porating the brine under con-
ditions of a partial vacuum in
a closed container, Crystalliza-
tion is rapid and the salt will ;lie
fine grained. Coarse salt for
commercial use is the result of
evaporating the brine in open
vats,
Another product of the retreat-
ing Palaeozoic sea is Gypsum.
The first mine was opened in
1822 near Paris. Other mines fol-
lowed, and today about 11 per-
cent of the total Canadian pro-
duction comes from Ontario. Gyp-
sum deposits are found in the
same formations from which salt
is mined.
Structural materials are sup-
plied in abundance by Palaeo-
zoic rocks. Limestone quarries
produce crushedstone for road
metal, railway ballast, and con-
crete aggregate. Portland cement
and lime come from the same
source. Shale beds producethe
material for the manufactpre of
brick and tile. Sandstone is quar-
ried extensively as a building
stone.
The economic Value of the
area's mineral resources is not
significant. The yearly value'of
natural gas is from four to five
million dollars. Annual oil pro-
duction is 'aver. 100,000 barrel's.
Salt production has reached apt
proximately three million dollars,
followed by one third of a million
dollars' worth of gypsum.
All this because we are too
late to fish.
