Stanley Reeve Tom Consitt responded by saying the landfill site had been originially expected to last 20 years with normal population increases. The present per- manent population of Stanley is 1,600. George Penfold of the County Planning Department informed the meeting the County plan designates the lake shoreline for summer residential use and wondered if the residents present would be interested in giving their council some idea of just how far back from the shoreline they feel cottages should be allowed, Under the County plan cottage subdivisions along the lake shore are allowed only up to 1,000 feet back from the shoreline. John McIntyre suggested it might not be wise to draw a straight line and say west of it is development when there is a good deal of excellent farm land along the Crediton lady returns home By MISS ELLA MORLOCK CREDITON Temperature 82 degrees, the sun brilliant in a clear, blue sky, mocking birds singing, the air sweet with the perfume of orange and orchid trees, yards bright with oleander and bougainvillea, and flower beds aglow with amaryllis blossoms. Where is that idyllic spot? Boca Raton, Florida, where I spent the winter at Bibletown, a Christian conference centre. They told a joke about Canadians there. The Americans have President Carter, Bob Hope and Johnny Cash, the Canadians have Prime Minister Trudeau, no hope and no cash.

Another ratepayer felt there was enough development along the lakeshore as it is. He added his main concernwas being able to take his family to the lake for a swim without being hasseled by cottage owners. The general feeling emerged here that there should be stricter enforcement of public access to the beach and many 'no trespassing signs put up by cottagers are in fact not legal and should be removed. In fact, the meeting was told the beach up to the high water line is public and is not owned by any cottager, Council was commended by several residents for their foresight in purchasing the lakefront property they have since turned into a public park for the residents of the township at the end of sideroad 10. The Hayfield riverfront was another topic of concern as Goderich township has designated most of their side of the riverfront natural en- vironment which means they will allow no development. Some residents felt this was dictating to owners what they can and can not do with their land and was not fair but members of council said they felt they had to do what was in the best interests of the "Teamwork is essential in the fight against cancer," according to C.B.C. sportscaster, Fred Sgambati, the Canadian Cancer Society's National Campaign Chairman. "Just as individual members of a team must work together, researchers, doctors, nurses, Canadian Cancer Society volunteers and the public can form a strong front line in the face of the opponent — cancer, "Only part of the battle is being waged in the laboratories where scientists are striving day and night to find the key to unlock the mystery of this disease," the Chairman continued. Volunteers of the Cancer Society perform numerous tasks to serve cancer patients, ministering to their physical and financial needs, bringing hope and cheer. Other volunteers are actively spreading the message of early detection and treatment of cancer. They inform Canadians of the invaluable life- protecting guide — the Seven Steps to Health — which can give the individual an edge on the disease. Then there is the public. Canadians have one of the most important contributions to make to controlling cancer," said Mr. Sgambati. "Through their donations to the annual campaign in April and throughout the year, they make possible all of the work of the Canadian Cancer Society. They provide funds for ongoing programs of research. The pamphlets found in doctors' offices, in drug stores, plazas and information booths, the educational films and slides, the messages heard on the radio and seen on television, all com- municate to the public the im- portance of prevention, early detection and treatment of cancer and are available because of the public's financial support of the Society. Programs which help ease the way of the cancer patient would not be possible without the time and money township not just a single ratepayer. Once the secondary plan for the township has been settled, there would be annual public meetings to make sure the ratepayers feel the plan is serving their best interests. If not, the township council at their request could initiate amendments to the plan. donated by Canadians. "This month 120,000 people across Canada will be out can- vassing for your donation to support the vital work of the Canadian Cancer Society. Join the team effort and give generously, Cancer can be beaten if we all do our part in the fight,. Much has been done; there is yet much to do. Be part of the win- ning team."
