In addition to engineering supervision, the town's sewer project has quite a num-
ber of roadside superintendents, both young and old, who daily scrutinize digging
and installation along Anne St, In addition to the work here, Gaffney Construction
Ltd. has begun digging the lagoon just west of town on the former Willard farm.

dan replied.
When he started to explain
the new plan again which
made the seizure permissible,
Mousseau shouted out, "that
must be a Diefenbaker plan."
"Then you'll have to take it
up with Mr. Diefenbaker
guess," Soldan jokingly re-
plied.
Later, in the meeting, Reeve
Becker pointed out that the
gravel situation was serious
and the township would have to
consider seizing another pit,
"We've already seized one,"
Mousseau shouted from the
floor again.
Mousseau, who was defeated
in a previous fight with
Becker for the reeve's post,
listened while the reeve ex-
plained why he bad purchased
the farm and then interrupted
by saying, "you got fooled on
this gravel pit."
"It's not the first time I've
been fooled," Becker replied.
just as Becker was sitting
down, Mousseau shouted up,
"how did the telephone system
get along? I hear there's a
strike onl"
"I have telephone service,"
Becker curtly replied. "Every-
thing's going smoothly and
that's all I have to say."
This was the only mention
of the strike at the nomination
meeting, but all four operators
who refused to handle calls
three weeks ago were present
at the meeting.
"Peeved" at council
Lloyd Hendrick, who gave
up his seat on the area school
board to battle for a council
seat, charged the present coun-
cil with being unfair in some
of their dealings.
He specifically mentioned
council's use of their grader
for cleaning ditches for farm-
ers, and said they "appear to
cleam them for a chosen few".
He reported he had asked
council to clean out a ditch in
leis area that was causing
flooding on three farms, but
they woudn't, yet they did it
for some others,
"I'm a bit peeved at them",
he reported, "and if they are
going to stand up here and say
they are going to work fairly,
I wish they would start,"
Gives reasons
In his final reply to the
meeting, Becker gave council's
reasons for two other contentious
issues which had been raised at
the meeting — namely the
$1,000.00 donation to the Dash-
wood hall and the refusal lb
sign a fire agreement with
Grand Bend for protection for
the lakeshore subdivisions.
He reported the majority of
council were in favor of the
grant and he pointed out he
thought it was a "good deed,'
"If we don't do something for
the small communities, wha
will happen to them?" he ques-
tioned. "We have to help them
along and we get considerable
taxes from the north side of
D a shwood."
He pointed out the fire pro-
tection question had been a
problem for many years and
they decided not to pay the
$200.00 retainer to Grand Bend
because the Dashwood brigade
felt they could handle the area.
However, Elgin Hendrick re-
ported that there had been a
fire in the area two weeks ago
and the Dashwood brigade
wouldn't come out and they had
to call Grand ;end.
"Dashwood came after the
fire was out," Hendrick stated,
and questioned why the Dash-
wood brigade had told them to
call Grand Bend,
"That's a new one to me,"
Becker replied, "but cer
tainly look into it."
The two issues were raised
by Corbett, who said he felt the
residents along the lake were
entitled to fire protection. "1
HAY TRUSTEE — Carl Oest-
reicher was appointed by At-
claination to fill a vacancy on

board at the nomination meet-
ing, Friday. He fills the posi-
tion left vacant when Lloyd

tion for a council seat, Incum-
bents Leonard Erb and Elmer

said, with reference to the
Dashwood hall.
Trustees acclaimed
Turkheim came under fire
from chairman, Ray Fisher,
:for the "hard time" he gave
the school board in editorials
this past year,
Cliff Pepper was even more
emphatic in denouncing the
program as he told the audience
that when the girls in the home
cc course had the food made
up it wasn't fit to eat.
He quoted one of his four
daughters as saying, "our dog
wouldn't eat it."
He also stated that the blouses
and skirts the grls made were-
n't fit to wear and his wife had
to rip them apart and start all
over again.
In explaining the levelling of
the school yard, Fisher re-
ported there was only $85.00
difference between the bid they
accepted and the lowest bid,
and they knew the higher man
would do a good job and would
use local labor and they felt
they were warranted in accept-
ing his bid.
Answering the teacher ques-
tion, Fisher said the board al-
ways tried to obtain the best
teachers, but they had to go on
the advice of area inspectors
because they didn't know the
applicants' background,
"We are only farmers", he
said, "and we ain't educated to
hire teachers."
Contract for .construction of
the million-dollar Parkhill dam
may not be let until one year
from pOW, According to a tont-
ative .engineering schedule re-
leased by the Anaable Anther-
ity last week.
A vast amount of paper and
engineering work is required

over several times while I've
been looking at that building,"
he jokingly stated,
Following the motion that he
write the owners asking them to
clean up the buildings, Clerk
Campbell noted that it would be
to their advantage, because they
were being assessed for the
useless structures.
Hensall utility man, Ernie
Davis, reported to council that
all the catch basins had been
cleaned in preparation for win-
ter and several drains had also
been unplugged,
He reported that Ed Fink
had suggested council consider
purchasing their own "snake"
to clean drains, after Davis
had borrowed his three times
in one week.
"That's a good idea," Knight
replied and he was supported
by Baker who said council had
more drainage problems than
anyone else in town and should
have the apparatus.
At the recommendation of Da-
vis, council decided to secure a
100-foot "snake,"
Davis also reported that most
of the snow fence had been put
up, including a 200-foot section
in 'the new subdivision at the
south end of the village.
Council also learned that the
dump had been bulldozed and
would "be alright until spring"
and that the new garage had
received two coats of paint.
In other business, council:
Learned that Clarence Reid
had agreed to look after the
snowplowing of the v ilia g e

rymple to once again plow out

Followed its original inten-
tion to raise the $1,733,80 levy

I should like to express my
thanks to the electors of Ex-

men who will form the 1963-

nothing away from Mr. Mus•

would like to take this oppor-

ly, the work done in past

press my feeling that council

to qualify and a fifth was dis-
qualified because he did not

Herb Turkheim, publisher of

he had been approached by
several Zurich and township

felt Zurich should have one
vote on the board.
However, he failed to qualify.
Turkheim criticised the board
for dropping the home econo-

ses at the public school, for
- failing to accept the lowest
tender among bids for excava-
tion work and also for not hir-
ing an area teacher who had ap-
