Biddulph Township I would appreciate the tax-

BEST WISHES OF THE NEW YEAR

GRANTON
Councillor of Biddulph
Township the past year
Seeking re-election for 1965
A MESSAGE FOR EVERY TAXPAYER
I wish to explain to the Biddulph township
taxpayers, why it was necessary to strike a
20 mill township tax rate for 1964, The high
mill rate was due to the fact, that the mill
rate of the previous year 1963 was not set
high enough to cover all expenditures for that
year.
TAXES ARE TOO HIGH
I feel in the coming year 1965 something
definitely should be done to improve the fi-
nancial position of Biddulph Township.

so bad he didn't see the Horuk
house and walked all the way to,
the Hardy home, which was lit up
with Christmas lights — a dis-
tance of a quarter of a mile,
for assistance.
Realizing the man was too
badly injured for first aid, Mrs.
Hardy drove him to Dr. Patter-
son's office for treatment. The
young man's parents, who were
notified brought out dry clothing
and took him to Victoria Hos-
pital,
Don Smith of Lucan's Sunoco
Service Station, who removed
the new Corvette car from the
river-bed, said the car was a
complete wreck.
The young man was alone in
the car at the time of the ac-
cident.
Last Wednesday afterpoen,
Mrs. Clarence Hardy, was
tertaiping le little girls in honor
of her daughter Jtilies, 10th
birthday, when festivities were
halted by the arrival of a man,
soaking wet and bleeding pro-
fusely, The yoting man was Wal-
ter Blackburn Jr. of London,
who had met with an accident
on his way north on No. 4
Highway, just west of the vil-
lage. The fog was so bad, visi-
bility was almost nil. A few
feet before reaching thebridge,
over the Ausable river, the car
left the road broke through the
guard rail and dropped into
some two feet of water 25 feet
beneath.
In spite of a broken nose,
facial lacerations and shock the

Imagine exposing your awee-

and all. That was about the only
thing that wasn't exposed there,
for a day or two.
And we had the shortest,
sweetest cocktail party, on Box-

Usually, when you ask people to

you lever the last couple out

her that as far as I knew, he
was a nice lad, that it wasn't his

She swallowed the works, and
it took me a week to convince
her that he was a perfectly
normal 15-year-old in grade
10, with the biggest paper route
in town.
I shouldn't have been so
smart. It cost me the following:
a new pair of shoes; a new
dress which is suitable for
wearing to next year's Prom,
and nothing else, except that
you can't wear the same dress
you wore to last year's Prom;
and about 12 hours of listening
to the old lady telling about how
tough things were for girls when
she was 13.

usual maudlin state. , Tree was
not bought; exam papers un-
marked; Christmas cards not
purchased, let alone sent; no
idea of who would be at our
place for Christmas; dozens of
presents to buy for people who
wouldn't be satisfied with the
moon wrapped in solid silver.
But this was normal, and no
cause for alarm. Then, things
began to go haywire.
First, my wife discovered she
had a hernia. This was rather a
blow to all hands. She thought it
an extremely unlady-like ail-

the school choir, led by Mrs.
Clarence Hardy and accompa-
nied by Gayle Mardlin. This
was something to see and hear
— over 80 children in seven
tiers, three on the stage, two
in front of the curtain and two
on the main floor. To most
parents who attended the Little
Red Schoolhouse and whose mu-
sical training consisted of "The
Maple Leaf" and God Save
the Queen" at Christmas, the
sight made them feel they were
born 50 years too soon.
Room 5 next put on the amus-
ing play, "The Practical Test"
and the last number "A Min-
strel Show" staged by Rooms
5, 6, 7, 8 pupils, met with a
big hand of applause from the
kick line, alley cats, Brenda
Wallis on her accorion and
Roy Willis on the mouth organ
to the jokes of interlocutor,
Jim Parker and his minstrels.
On behalf of all the child-
ren, Peggy Elson, presented a
gift to Mrs. Hardy.
What a crowd! Before the
doors of the Biddulph Central
school were open, last Monday
night, the crowd began arriving.
By 8 pm the huge auditorium
was full, chairs in the aisle
were full and an overflow out-
side in the hall, parents,
friends and pre-schoolchildren
all eager to see and hear the
school's second Christmas con-
cert. (The children of the school
had a preview in the morning
and remained in the classroom
until their number was an-
nounced.)
Jane Crozier, daughter of the
chairman of the Board, Ron
Crozier and Mrs. Crozier was
chairman. "Jolly Santa Claus"
was the first number, staged
by Room I. Michael Scott made
his debut as a public speaker
and made a real hit, with his
words of welcome.
Room 2 and 3 chose the play,
"Rumplestilskin" with Jackie
Pennington as Rumplestilskin,
Janet Smith as the princess
and Stephen Carter, the prince.
An excellent display of Tumb-
ling by the senior boys followed
which ended with the pyramid
downfall.
Room 4 staged the Christ-
mas Story with angels, shep-
herds and lighted star which
was very colorful. This was
followed by three numbers from
First of all, I hope you all
had a merry Christmas and I
wish you a happy New Year.
Things were pretty quiet
around the arena in the past
week as most hockey activities
were cancelled because of
Christmas coming Friday. We
had a very good turn out for
public skating Saturday night
and again Sunday. We also had
a very good crowd out to our
usual Saturday night dance.
Most things are back to nor-
mal this week except for the
South Middlesex League and the
Lucan Ilderton Combines. They
don't play here again until after
the new year. The figure skat-
ing lessons are still on and
any one wishing to get in on
this, be here at the arena Tues-
day nights at 6:30.
