Ode of yellow roses .and white Ileitis, Wa4.!, Mr. Scott gave e short resume of this year's arena Activities. He Also recalled the building of the arena, begun 13 years ago October 8, and the policy of the arena board to "pay as they built" and not to go in debt as other arenas had done. He paid high tribute to the work done by so many indite- tree Lueanites ae well as men of the community. Thee he went on to explain the situation which at present confronts the board, Lucan's water supply comes from one well and one pump, which pumps water into a large tank. While the arena com- pressor cooler is in operation the arena uses more water than the village. For years this water, after leaving the arena, goes down the creek. The board's proposal is to store this water in a large reservoir, filter and contieue re-using it, This reservoir would prove a big .asset in ease of fire and could be used as a swimming pool during July and August with an instructor to teach swimming, Prom W. A. Stewart, as guest speaker, was highly in favor of. the project and said all children should be taught to swim. At the end of his address he pre- sented Reeve Ivan Hearn with a cheque for S2„500 from the provincial government, The Biddulph and village council as well as a goodly number of men and ladies were present at the meeting. Ken Carter reported on a visit to the swimming pool at the Blenheim arena. Reeve Harold Wallace, Reeve Ivan Hearn and Airs, A. E. Reilly es well as others were given an opportunity to speak, after which all present were unanimous in their approval of the proposed $20,000 swimming pool. Mrs. Sheridan Revington, on behalf of the arena ladies, said that during the past 13 years they had contributed $17,000 to- wards equipping the kitchen and snack-bar as well as arena up- keep but they still had a bank account and would be willing to assist financially on the pro- posed project. With the exception of. last year, groups of Lucan and vi- cinity ladies had been in charge of the snack-bar as well as the kitchen. Last year the former was leased but did not prove satisfactory. Mrs, Revington intimated that if they could get sufficient help they might consider taking over again. If not, it might be possible to rent to a local couple instead of outsiders.
