ill pave Ethel road
At their monthly meeting fOr
September, held. on Friday, the
Huron County Council learned
from the report of the Road
Committee that a contract valued
at $94,615 has been let to Lavis
Contracting Company of Clinton
for the paving of County Road 19
from Ethel to Highway 86 near
Molesworth, a distance_ of, 5.5
miles.
This project had been delayed
earli er this year until it could be
determined if the County would,
have sufficient funds.
The total cost of the project will
be closer to $150,000 since the
County is required 'to supply
approximately $42,000 worth of
asphalt cement, approximately
6,000 cubic yards of gravel for
shouldering and all inspection,
surveying and weighing of
.materials,
This total price of $150,000 is
.$9,000 over the Engineer's
estimate and could possibly lead
to a slight over expenditure by the
end of the year, depending on the
'severity of the winter during Nove
charging , the Highways
Departmept -with interest for
borrowing:
This will result in a saving in
the Road Department budget of
some $35,000 and this saving will
in part help offset the high winter

Brussels Fair
,The sun shone. The Biussels
Fall Fair Parade, with marching
school children from Brussels,
Grey Central and Walton Schools,
attractive floats, and decorated
bicycles proceeded toward the
Fair Grounds.. Before, they
reached the grounds came
another dov2npour drenching the,
marchers and bedraggling the
decorated floats and 'bicycles on
which so much effort had been.
spent.
The off-and-rain all day on the
already water-soaked groynds
from the previous two days of rain
made things even more difficult
for fair officials. The races and
horse classes 'had to be cancelled
for the race track and grounds
were a quagmire. Trucks could
not be allowed to unload their
entries. •
It was unfortunate that the
weather did not co-operate for'the
fair showed promise of being' a
decided success. The cold and
rain discouraged many ,people
and the usual attendance figures
were cut in half.
Indoor exhibits were excellent.
In a number of classei entries
were up..
Six area 4-H Clubs held,
competitions.,
May the weatherman be more,
gracious to the Brussels Agricul-
tural Society next year. Detailed
