"I can't see where we can

The PUC gave their
blessing providing that a
tree which might obstruct
the view of the clock which
hangs from the PUC wall on

In another matter related
to the beautification of the
town, Davis reported that his

Including labor, the tree

The Prouts have also
asked that a fence which was
erected by the PUC be
removed.
Livingstone said the
matter "is turning into a
problem but not a drastic
problem and that "it's nit-
picking on behalf of both
parties (the PUC and
Prouts.)"
In reply to a query from a
commission member Davis
replied that the well was an •
integral part of the town's
water system.
When asked if the PUC
might be abletopurchase the
well property Davis replied
that the Prouts had shown a
willingness to entertain
offers.
The PUC has received four
quotations on the erection of
the new sub-station on
Rosemount Avenue in the
north-east section of town.
This contract is for labour
only as the PUC has already
purchased the sub-station's
main parts.
Two'of the labor contracts
were based on preliminary
drawings while the other two
were based on revised
drawings,
At the behest of com-
mission member Mayor
Derry Boyle the commission
deferred a decision on
awarding the contract until

Livingstone saidthiswas a
minor point with the main
concern being a better
looking town.
While Canada's neighbors
to the south of the border
have been showering us with
lots of kindness lately, one
member of the PUC is not all
that fond of United States.
An article indicating that
Canada might start taxing
the United States on the sale
of surplus electrical power
and which had been brought
to Davis' attention by one of
the electrical assocgtions
was,the basis for Boyle's ire.
He said the U.S. should be

Livingstone and Murray
Greene disagreeing with
Boyle.
Both gentlemen said the
U.S. was taking surplus

use for.

Poor shocks contribute to tire wear. If your
shocks are damaged, the balance "roll"
of your tires is thrown out'of line. The re-
sult is uneven and faster tire wear.
Also, poor shocks can cause extra gas
consumption, due to unnecessary body
sway.
Brakes too, will contribute to tire wear If
they are worn or not properly adjusted. Ali
wheels must brake at the same time to
maintain even tire wear.

The readership of weekly
newspapers is growing, at a
faster rate than dames
because people want local
news.
That was some of the in-
formation imparted by Bob
Trotter, journalism co^
ordinator at Conestoga
College, when he addressed
a seminar for correspon-
dents sponsored by the
Bluewater Regional
Newspaper Network in
Clinton, Friday,
Nine of the correspondents
who serve the T-A were
among the 80 in attendance
at the event.
Trotter also noted that the
electronic media can't do the
job as well as newspapers,
saying that what news most
people get from TV or radio
in one day is equivalent to
only half a page in their
newspaper.
He referred to rural
correspondents as "one of
the 'most important cogs in
the newspaper machine."
Trotter, who also writes a
weekly farm column for 20
newspapers, said personal
items in weeklies were well
read. "The more you write
about people, the more it will
be read," he advised.
The seminar was
organized by Shirley Keller,
editor of the Goderich Signal
Stai, who termed
correspondents the "life-
line" of newspapers.
"Be assured your work is
appreciated by our
newspapers and the people
who live in your neck of the-
woods," she advised.
Barry Wenger, publisher
of the Witighara Advance-
Times, told the seminar that
the writing ability of weekly
newspaper reporters is
"quite superior to what we
find in. dailies," He said this
was due in part to .the ex-
cellent supply of trained
journalists being turned out
by community colleges, such
as Conestoga,

Newspaper Network in.'
