Corrections please! - The Times-Advocate had a particularly bad week last week, Here's a list of the cor- rections: NEAR QUARTER MILLION Total expenditures made by the South 'Huron Hospital As- sociation during 1961 were not a paltry $24,210.81, as printed in the financial statement last week, They totalled a .formid- able $224,210,81, or just short of a quarter of a million dol- lars. The figure indicates the hos- pital in itself is quite an in- dustry in the community, pro- viding considerable employ- ment and trade, ATRAZ!NE PRICE DOWN The heading erroneously said "up one-third", The story was right when it said the price of Atrazine, t h e pre - emergent weed spray, had been reduced by one-third, The drop in price was welcome news to agricul- ture officials who have been advocating- use of the chemical control in corn, PAPER DRIVE NEXT WEEK Two classified ads in the pa- per last week indicated the Exeter Lions' paper drive would be held April U, instead of the correct date of April 18. Lions have asked residents to take the time to roll their papers because of the premi- um in .price which is realized, The sale of the paper helps fi- nance Scout activities in the community. THE WRONG- NAME In the story of Alf Wuerth's celebration. of his 25th anniver- sary in the shoe business here, The T-A wrongly named his Water system — Continued from page 1 Mrs, Emery Des Jardins pointed out she had always stood for things that were of benefit to Grand Bend, but argued that the •municipality and many of its residents could not afford the expensive systetn. She noted the large deben- ture debt already faced by the summer resort and the $29,- 941,28 in outstanding taxes, and drew attention to the fact the population had not in- creased very much in the past 11 years and would probably drop when the army moves from Ipperwash. Mrs. Des Jardins pointed out that at least 45 of the per- manent residents were widows who were on fixed incomes. "We're not wealthy people." she said, "and we can pay, but I know of many who can't." The other objector, Frank Plumb, owner of Hillside Cabins, also attacked the pro- posed system on the grounds the village could not afford it, "1 don't know what it will do to the economy of the vii. lage," he stated. C V L ht QC :Eaeter aug on, , . , questioned Plumb on his cabin operation and learned the Grand Bend man had only two wells for his 12 units and had been forced to purchase water from Fred Walker, owner of Oakwood inn and Golf Course. The Exeter lawyer also point- ed out that Plumb had met with council two years ago and brought a jar of his water and said,. "Look at this, we have to do something," refer- ring to the black murky water, Plumb admitted that he had met with council over his water problem. "Well, they're doing some- thing about it," Laughton told him. Laughton told the OMB that council, as duly elected repre- sentatives of the people, had acted as they had seen fit and the Ontario Water Resources Commission had also seen fit to enter into the financing of the system. Ile pointed out that because the cost would be met through frontage and service charges, the question of unpaid taxes wasn't relevant as there would be no increase in mill rate, "Some people do gel hurt in progress." he added, "but the system is for the advancement and betterment of the com- munity," The preliminary plans for the project were presented by Frank Campbell, projects of- ficer of the OWRC, and the de- tails of the system and an explanation of the various test- ing' thal proceeded the drawing up of the lake intake were given by Ken Clawson, vice.: presdent of M.

The firemen have pledged $2,500. either by donating their stipend for serving on the bri- gade or by raising the money in other ways. The men's club already has raised over $2,000. Donations promised include more than $800 worth of win- dows for the building from the village's principal industry, Dashwood Planing Mills Ltd„ as well as $100 from the Hu- ron county police fund. The committee feels it can secure at least $2,000 worth of free labor .from men in the community, Whatever other funds are re- quired will be secured through a community canvass and other money- raising projects, The groups already have .raised 'funds this year through box socials, raffles and other acti- vities.
