SU
t Decision
Brings. Relief
Ontario Municipal Board's de-
eision on th Hagmeier suit for
$275,000 flood damage was web.
Gomel with relief by retiring
reeve, Fred Neaman, of McGilli-
vray, one of the principal muni
cipalities involved,
The board threw out Dr. Hag -
i meler's claims for ''compensa-
ition but it did order McGillivray
and other municipalities to clear
I tintless than a mile of drain near
rthe marshland.
("Although costs will be con-
siderable for cleaning out that
ditch," the reeve told ratepayers.
at the nomination meeting, 'It's
j Wonderful that this thing is
cleaned up and it's not hanging
over our heads any longer."
"That wasthe largest amount
the township has ever been sued
for in its history."
I McGillivray has been threa-
tened with the suit since 1947
when Dr, Hagmeier, then owner
of 7,000 acres south of Grand
Bend, first, sought damages for
major floodin the area. In suc
ceeding years, he continued to
add damages resulting from
early and late floods.
Despite the court's decision; an-
other speaker .at the nomination
meeting, Freeman Hodgins, said
"we still have some responsibi-
lity to relieve the floodings :con-
ditions in the ,marshland." A
former reeve of McGillivray,
Hodgins is now view -chairman of
the Ausable River Conservation
Authority.
"It's our duty to make some
effort to protect these lands in
the marsh areas," he said. "We
are going to have tp take some
action to alleviate the flooding
there."
Mr. Hodgins pointed out that
the low-lying area, once con-
sidered worthless, was now be-
ing developed into a rich vege-
table -growing section. He said
some of the new owners of the
land had . offered to contribute
towards the cost of flood control
measures initiated by the Autho-
rity.
Many people could retire com-
fortably on what their expe-
rience cost them.

UNIQUE, AND DRAMATIC
"The Complete Beer Book" is
the name. . It is a "unique and
dramatic presention." It will be
published in 'a full-size volume,,
to appeal to women.
This book will be very com-
prehensive and will give women
many interesting facts about
beer that every woman should
know. For example, it will have
chapters on (1) story of beer,
(2) beer at its best, (3) cooking
with beer, (4) food for beer and
(5) beer drinks.
What really lies behind this
unusual project? Will it, educate.
our women and stimulte their
appetite for beer? That is the
hope of course. Could it be how-
ever, that the Beer Barons re-
alize that progress is being
made against beer on this con-
tinent? One fact that stands out
is that beer sales in America
continue • to decline. Another
fact, too little known and pub-
licized, is that Churches grand
Temperance organizations are
slowly but surely stepping up
their alcohol education prof
grams. Witness the intensive
work being' done in our Ontario
public • and high schools under
the auspices of the Ontario Tem-
perance Federation. Also the
plans for a Provincial Youth Con-
ference on the alcohol problem,
to be held in Toronto? Decem-
ber 27 to 30:
According to Dr. Gordon Bell,
"Education is .the answer."
