were officially in the running.
At the meeting, Erb said he
hadn't finally decided on
running but had been
approached for several years. He
added, "I have no fault to find
with present council, but I have
20 years experience gained on
school boards in Hay
Township."
Hay, who takes the PUC
position from retiring Bill Fuss
told the ratepayers, I would like
to go on by the people's choice.
I have a lot of questions about
the PUC. This is the reason I will
stand."
The other three sitting
councillors also said they were
pleased with the thoughts of an
election to give the ratepayers a
chance to make their choices
known.
Councillor Harold Knight of
the property committee
reported that due to many truck
loads of garbage from outside
municipalities, the dump had to
be locked with a supervisor in
charge. He also reported on
negotiations with neighboring
townships on the purchase of a
new fire truck, saying, "we feel
they should pay a fair share
toward the purchase and
maintenance of our fire fighting
equipment."
John Sangster gave a lengthy
report on the past year's
operation of the PUC. He said
water meters had been
discontinued about six months
ago and that revenue from the
flat rate was little different from
the meters.
Sangster added, "It was the
expenditures that was killing us.
It had been necessary to service
about 100 meters a year due to
corrosion at from $7 to $10
each."
Later during a question and
answer period, Sangster after.
noting most of the ladies in
attendance were wearing their
coats, suggested a new heating
system be installed in the town
hall. He received unanimous
support from everyone.

filled the Reeve's position for
three years will be opposed by
Oliver Jacques, who has been on
council for the same length of
time. Mrs. Noakes also served six
years on council while Jacques
CHARLES HAY
.PUC
served some time on the Hensall
Public School Board.
In her address to the
ratepayers meeting, Mrs. Noakes
said, "I hope we have an
election, people should be more
interested in municipal affairs. If
we don't take interest in our
business, somebody else will."
The present Reeve added,
"I'm looking forward to an
election and as far as I am
concerned it will be a clean fight
and may the best man win."
Jacques voiced the same
opinion in stating his intentions
of contesting the reeveship,
saying, "It is my intention to
run for reeve. An election gives
everybody a chance to voice
their opinion of who they want
on council."
The challenger for the top
municipal post added, "I would
like to sit on County Council
and I feel with my experience in
the electrical trade, I could give
leadership on the Public Utilities
Commission in Hensall."
The three remaining members
of the 1968 Hensall council,
Harold Knight, John Baker and
Hein Rooseboom are being
opposed by newcomers George
Beer and Leonard Erb.
A vacancy on the village's
PUC was filled by Charles Hay.
Beer was also nominated for
PUC but tendered his resignation
to become eligible for council.
In a similar move, Hay took the
vacant PUC seat instead of
attempting to make council.
Beer assured the ratepayers,
"I don't want to go in by
acclamation, if there is an
election I'll be there." He signed
his qualification papers
immediately after the other four

Area couple wed 65 years
celebrate with their family
Saturday marked the
sixty-fifth wedding anniversary
of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred
Ducharme, lifelong residents of
the St. Joseph area. With their
11 children, the couple attended
Thanksgiving Mass at St. Peter's
Parish Church at St. Joseph (the
same church in which they were
married) to give thanks and
gratitude to God for a long
married life.
Fr. Prudhomme officiated at
the wedding of 65 years ago.
Attendants were Mrs. Joe
Gelinas, Mrs. G. Tomlin, L.
Ducharme and Maxime Masse.
Mrs. Ducharme, the former
Adelina Masse, 84, is still doing
her own housework, makes
bread and buns and enjoys
knitting.
Mr. Ducharme, 90 years
young, still splits his own wood
and looks after a large garden.
He has been correspondent for
the local Zurich paper for 68
years and still contributes his
weekly budget of news.
In his early years, he travelled
throughout Canada and the
United States and is soon to
publish a book entitled "Nine
Years on the Road."
The couple attributes their
long and healthy life to "living a
clean life along with plenty of
hard work."
Celebrations were held at the
home of their son and
daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs.
Avila Ducharme, St. Joseph.
