Large turnoJt at Lodge banquet Over 375 members of the Ma- sonic Order were present at the 29th anniversary of the past Masters' Association of the South Huron Masonic District held in the hall of the Exeter Branch of the Canadian Legion Wednes- day evening of last week. It was Ladies' Night sponsored by the Ailsa Craig lodge. Mem- bers of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Exeter Legion catered to the banquet. The guests at the head table were piped in by Piper Gerald Wurm of Exeter and they were introduced by W. Bro. W. L. Craig, of Auburn. Wor, Bro. H. R. Alberts, St. Marys, presided and proposed a toast to "The Queen and the Craft", A toast to "The Ladies" was proposed by Rt. W. Bro. H. G. Shortreed, Clinton, and was responded to by Mrs. Walter Mogk. Guest speaker for the evening was Rev. Robert Marshall, Strathroy, who spoke eloquently on Ireland and the Irish, He was introduced by W. B.

No report from, the Kinsmen sub-committee was available at the meeting, although it is known they have developed plans and specifications for their island foot-bridges and are proceeding to investigate the best methods of grading the south bank of the river to an angle of repose which can be seeded without constrict- ing the south channel. Gabion baskets may have to be used in this connection for river train- ing along this bank. As a wrap-up to the meeting, chairman Pooley reported that a Confederation Caravan sub- committee has been formed. Its members are: J, G, Burrows (chairman), Arnold Mathers (secretary) and members Ken Kerr, Ted Wright, John Burke, George Busche, Don ,Ecker, Har- ry VanBergen and Ron Bogart. This group has assumed respon- sibility for planning the visit of the Confederation Caravan and will work independently of the main Centennial Committee. $1.00 each, these sizes will be V-3' and 3'-4', $24.00; 10 Pyra- midal Cedar, upright variety, 24"-30" size at$3.00 each, $45.- 00, for an interim total of $138,- 00. A further, nursery stock order will be placed for other trees to be planted as individual speci- mens over the whole area. Ad- ditional pyramidal cedar will be used as a shield planting between the Lee Learn residence and the park. Flowering species such as Almey Crab, Quince, and Hy- drangea will produce a pleasing effect, through the fact that each blooms during a different season of the year. Two major shade trees,schwedle r 1 maple or Crimson King maple (8'-10' tall specimens) will be planted on the west side of the property ad- jacent to the highway. Other spe- cimen trees in clump plantings may include, ginkgo, Japanese flowering cherry, sunburst lo- cust, clump birch, purple-leaf- ed plum, golden weeping willow, catalpa, and Swedish juniper. The committee decided to set a$300.- 00 limit on expenditure for tree planting stock. The secretary also mentioned that requests had been received from both the local Sorority and the First Exeter Cub Pack to participate in plant- ing programs within the park. The Sorority is interested in es- tablishing a rose garden, and It was suggested to the Cubs that they contribute two large Almey Crab (Canada's Centennial tree) in a suitable location, to be de- termined as development pro- ceeds. It was also recommended that T. McCauley act as a co-or- dinator for this type of request. The following sequence of priorities was established rela- tive to the entrance area; (a) Hensall Hyde Bros., farm implements; W. J. Clement, farm implements; Hensall Motors.

At the last meeting of the Cen- tennial committee reports of the progress in the plans of the var- ious sub committees were given. Jim Paisley reported on behalf of the Lions sub-committee, stat- ing that the footings for the en- trance cairns would be poured as soon as weather permitted, that earth moving equipment might be re-directed to the park entrance area from another job in town as soon as the ground is dry enough to be worked, that the foot bridge over the neck of the reservoir will be delivered as soon as the de-silting process in the lower reservoir permits the pouring of the bridge abutments, and finally, it Is intended to seed down to grass the northeast picnic area on the curling club side of the pond in the fall of 1966. For the Legion group, Hugh Davis reported on a meeting held with C. Brintnell, who has been approached to supervise the construction of the Centennial picnic pavilion. A list of mater- ials has been prepared and will be circulated to local dealers prior to confirmation of the over- all cost of this facility, which will include considerable con- crete work by Clarence McDowell Construction for the footing s which will support the upright foundation posts. Cost of 16 con- crete footings and metal shoes, $1,100.00, estimate on concrete floor for pavilion, $1,000.00. T. McCauley reported on tree planting plans for the entrance to the park, indicating that the following species and costs have been communicated in an order to Downham Nurseries, Strathroy: For the north-south windbreak — 30 Hicks Yew, upright variety 15"-18" @ $2.30 equals $69.00; 15 Royalty Crab (Flowering) @ New style road maps are easier to read tax rate In 1966. Already schools requisitions are in, and total is $23,000 more than last year. This equals 14 mills, and it is ex- pected the county rate will be up 3 mills. Tenders for the proposed washrooms at the south pier were opened, and ranged from $3,400 to $4,979. Since all were considered too high, tenders were extended to April 23, and bidders will be contacted by the property committee with view to paring costs. The auditor's statement for 1965 was read. Tax arrears were discussed. The clerk reports that they are rising every year. if not done by then, the village is to get the job done, and the cost charged to the property owners. Appreciation was received from the Grand Bend Winter Sports Club for last year's grant. Council turned over to the Chamber of Commerce, via pre- sident Griffin Thomas and head of finance committee W. F. B. MacLaren, an opportunity to ad- vertise in a widely circulated magazine-size booklet being pre- pared by the County of Lambton. The book will be an up-to-date reprint of one prepared in 1961. Cost Is in the neighbourhood of $400 for 2 pages, full color. The Chamber representatives will consult directors. Clerk Murray A. DesJardins warned the council to prepare for about 17 mills increase in can be used, it will be a simple matter to refer to the map while travelling by car, as noted by Mr. MacNaughton. All the other helpful features of previous maps have been re- tained, such as panels depicting various Traffic Signs, another listing First Aid Posts, etc. FM radio stations have been added to the former listing of standard broadcast radio stations. The map — the cover of which carries a color photo of atypical rural highway scene was de- signed by the Cartographic Sec- tion of the Department of High- ways, as in the past. The new map may be obtained free of charge from any of the 18 district or ,five regional of- fices of the Department of High- ways, its Head Office (Downs- view P.O.), all Service Centres, and the Department of Tourism and Information, P arliame nt Buildings, Toronto. The map will also be available at any of the Tourist Reception C e n t r es FISHERMAN'S COVE With distribution now under way of the 1966 edition of the Official Road Map, published by the Department of Highways, On- tario, Highways Minister Charles S. MacNaughton notes that a novel method of folding makes refer- ring to it as simple as leafing through the pages of a book. As a result the map is much more readily useable in a car. In conjunction with the new method of folding and arrange- ment of the material, a revised indexing of place names greatly simplifies the pinpointing of all communities and lakes. Similar- ly, the inset maps of cities and other blocks of information — such as the mileage chart — can be, found much more easily than in the past by simple reference to key maps on the back cover of the 1966 edition. Through these improvements the desired information can be found by opening only one panel of the map at a time. Thanks to the noticeably greater ease with which the new production GRAND BEND RIVER RD. S. OF BRIDGE Two residents of Lake Road approached council of the village of Grand Bend on Monday night, concerned with the fact that their wells are still contaminated, and they can not see any action being taken to assist them in having the condition corrected. Bill Armstrong and Bob Welsh asked for results of the dye test which council had asked their sanitary inspector William Rendle to perform at the Laundro- mat. According to council, Mr. Rendle had made the test on Sat- urday, April 9, and so far, no results had been noticed. The cottagers confirmed that no re- sults had been noticed at their premises. Reeve Orval Wassmann point- ed out to the petitioners that council has no jurisdiction over the actions of the Medical Of- ficer of Health, Dr. Boyes, Park- hill, and that they should take action through him, or over his head, directly to Toronto. Mr. Wassmann said that letters sent by council to Toronto on this matter, had been referred back to Dr. Boyes, The village authorized a switch to Daylight Saving Time on April 24, 2 am and back to Standard on October 30, again at 2 am. A by-law was passed requir- ing that buildings and yards in the village be put in safe con- dition. A penalty of $10 on first offence and $25 for second of- fence was included.

TAKE OUT ORDERS Money for pool — Continued from front page well as donating the land. In ad- dition to the swimming pool the project supplied toilet facilities in the park area. In seconding the motion to donate the extra money by councillor Woode n, councillor Ted Wright suggested the town has received good value for the dollars they donated to this project. It was pointed out that with the tight budget the council is operating with it would be im- possible to make a larger grant than the $500. The swimming pool committee is holding a final drive in an ef- fort to clear up the last of the money owing on this project.

Separate prices will be quoted for the construction of the lib- rary and the machine shop when the new tenders are called. Mr. Boyce estimated it would take about two weeks to draw up the new plans and call for tenders. Tenders will be returned, prob- ably May 31. Mr. Boyce indicat- ed that it would be possible to have a start on construction as of July 1 using this schedule. In addition to this the plans must be resubmitted to Ottawa for approval, a process which takes an estimated five weeks. lllllllll II lilt, li 11111lillli,lliilll111111111111111111111111111111141111111111111111111111111111111 llllll 1111$11 DRILLBOX DCL (contains Diazinon, Caplan, Linelarie) for seed maggots, wireworms and diseases on corn, beans, soybeans and peas, Control Wireworms, Seed Maggots and Diseases on Corn, Soybeans, Beans and Cereal Grains with new GREEN CROSS DRILLBOX SEED TREATMENTS DRILLBOX Diazinon-Lindane for seed maggots and wireworms on corn, beans, soy- beans and peas (for seed already treated with a fungicide).

He indicated he would prefer to see the entire contract go back for tender leaving out some of the areas the board has discuss- ed and getting separate prices for these in order to get the price down to the $600,00 cost. Mr. Palmer also suggested that the machine shop was the only logical shop which could be cut and also indicated the library could be left off. District inspector Scott stated he would prefer not to see either of these areas left off but if a choice had to be made he would prefer to see the library left on in the interests of education. "If you drop either one you will be making an awful hole In your program" he said. Mr. Boyce suggested all items which could be done at a later date should be left out of the contract and said he hoped the board would not ask for any major structural changes. He said he didn't think the board could take more than $250,000 to $300,000 out of the contract without mutilating the plans. Some of the items taken from the contract and some of the ap- proximate prices include; delete the new staff room, $4,492; no changes to the present staff room, $1,484; no changes to medical room, $1,168; delete all altera- tions in the home economics room, delete the girls'occupation- al shop and transport these stu- dents to Clinton instead; get a separate price for the library, $67,000 plus $10,000 for furn- ishings; leave existing science room as is, $10,000; delete land- scaping, $2,600; delete running track, $32,000; delete asphalt paving of parking lot, $12,800; delete air conditioning in the ad- ministration and secretary's Of- fice, $2,400-$3,000; delete me- chanical ventilation in existing gymnasium, $8,178; delete the school name and flood lights, $600; delete welding booths and tables, $968; Change material used for gym ceiling, 0,000; delete bleachers, $6,500; reduce gym allowance by $3,000; reduce kitchen equipment by $3,000; (was
