It's bad enough to drive a businessman to apoplexy, but it's just as frustrating, on a more - personal basis, to the ordinary citizen. Our daughter lives in the city, 90 miles away. She doesn't have a phone. If we write her on Monday, she gets the letter Thursday or Friday. If there's something urgent, and we write up of boulevards, catch basins, street sweeping and side walk repair. Me also reported a need for calcium chloride to help keep the dust down and said 61 dog tags have been purchased by pet owners. In general business a building permit was granted to Byron Kyle to repair a veranda. A motion to reduce the amount of the PUC debenture from $16,500.00 to $14,850.00 was passed. There was a discussion as to where the new fire engine will be housed but the decision was held over until next week's meeting. Reeve Oliver Jaques told council the Goderich Museum had expressed an interest in the old fire engine. Councillor H. Knight said he would "he happy to see it go to the museum rather than sell it for $300.00 or so." The other councillors expressed agreement in having the old machine preserved. Accounts were paid in the amount of $3,540.00. Zurich WI attend auction Zurich Womens Institute chartered a bus trip to New Hamburg May 30 to attend the Mennonite Auction for. Overseas Relief with forty taking the trip. Twenty five thousand people attended the auction. Beautiful quilts were offered and one sold for $465.00. The objective of the sale this year was $60,000.00 Wednesday, tnere's no guarantee she'll get it that week. So send her a wire! Suppose she's not at home. She doesn't get the telegram until next day, or the next. If I were to drop dead, she might find out about it a week after the funeral. It wouldn't bother me, in that condition, but it might upset her a bit. Today I checked at the local post office. Three mails a day go out. If I send a letter to my father-in-law, 120 miles due west, here's the procedure. It goes due east for 35 miles, then southwest for 200 miles, southwest then northwest for 120 miles. The shortest distance between two points is a triangle, in post-office math. There is a good-sized town three miles away. A letter sent from there can, and usually does, take two days to get here. You could walk it in 45 minutes. Paradoxically, a colleague of mine writes his mother in England, and she gets the letter within 36 hours. If this is efficiency, I'm all turned around somehow. Granted, the postal workers were underpaid for years, though I'll witness that they were not overworked. I was employed in a post office during the Christmas rush and nobody was rushing that much. Pay them a decent wage, give them decent working conditions, but let's have some blasted service. If the P.O. runs at a loss, pay it. The CBC and the CNR are heavily subsidized, and there aren't too many squawks. Millions and millions are thrown down the drain on such flourishes as the aircraft carrier Bonaventure, and shrugged off, How about delivering the mail on time!
