plied to the project.
DeWitt Miller brought in the
idea of the establishment of a
nursing home for elderly peo-
ple in the community. He
said it is these people who
have made our country and a
project of this kind would be
one way of saying thank you.
His plan suggested a home with
About 50 beds, designed for
those who do not require the
highly -skilled care of profes-
sional hospital nurses. A
modern building would be safe
and would provide necessary
services for those who are not
able to care for themselves.
In a discussion which follow-
ed, both Mr. Moszkowski's
suggestion and that of Mr. Mil-
ler were given consideration.
However, it was pointed out by
members of the committee
that both were very costly pro-
jects, and would be of the kind
where considerable time would
be required to get them started,
The time element alone placed
them beyond consideration, as
any centennial project requires
government approval by August
first.
Mayor R. S. Hetherington
was in attendance and he offer-
ed the idea of starting a major
tree -planting program in the
community. He said many of
the trees in Wingham will
soon have to be removed due to
age. He said he could think
of no more fitting way in
which to mark Canada's birth-
day than a program which
would beautify the town and be
a lasting memorial.
Ross Dundas spoke up in
agreement with the mayor, and
outlined several ideas in regard
to the type of planting that
would do a good job, Hesug-
gested ornamental trees which
would not interfere with the

ONION
Have you bought
a home since you
bought your Mutual
Li e insurance?
If the answer is "Yes", you've bought something
you're mighty proud of and you have a right to be.
After all, a home is probably the biggest invest-
ment you'll make in a lifetime. You spent a lot of
time choosing the right location, style and size.
Those things were important because you bought
the home for your wife and family too. And you'll
want to make sure that they will go on living there
even if you are not around. Your Company, The
Mutual Life of Canada, can arrange a repayment
plan to guarantee that your family will have a
debt -free home. Call your representative or mail

power services, and taller for-
est -type trees at the rear of
town properties, He said a
wide variety of species would
be better than planting just one
kind which could become sus-
ceptible to disease.
Jim Currie offered a number
of ideas. He concurred with a
program of beautification in
Wingham, particularly at the
town's approaches. He also
went on record as being in fa-
vour of improving the appear-
ance of the town hall. He sug-
gested that the centennial grant
should be used for some purpose
that would not normally be
considered by the council.
G. W. Tiffin said he felt
the bulding programs mention-
ed earlier were out of reach fi-
nancially and preferred the
landscaping ideas. He recom-
mended that the Riverside Park
be extended and improved in a
speeded -up program. He felt
a general tree-plantingprogram
would be too scattered,
Harry McArthur suggested
that a special project, such as
a pavillion in the park would
be better, due to the way the
grants are handled, and be-
cause a 50 per cern grant is al-
ready available for park con-
struction.
Reeve Adair thought that
new seating and a new north
wall in the arena would be a
good project, particularly since
there is enough money in the
capital account of the arena to
finance the town's portion.
Other ideas mentioned at
various times as possible pro-
jects were a fountain in the
park to replace the old band
stand, improvement of facili-
ties at the air strip, the estab-
lishment of a pictorial history
of the community, the estab-
:itshment of a lending library of
good art work, as well as sev-
eral smaller projects.
All ideas submitted at the
meeting, as well as others
that come during the next few
days, will be considered by the
committee next Monday eve-
ning and a recommendation
will be made to the council,
Accidents Cause
$100 Damage
Two accidents on Wingham's
main street during the week-
end resulted in a damage bill
that was estimated at close to
$700.00 in total.
Last Friday just after 12:00
noon, a late model car driven
by Ross Pennabecker was pro-
ceeding north on Josephine
Street and when attempting to
make a left turn onto Alfred
Street, was struck in the right
rear fender by another vehicle
driven by Mrs. George Met-
calfe,
Mrs. Metcalfe suffered cuts
and abrasions to the face of a
minor nature. Damage to the
Pennabecker vehicle was es-
timated at close to $200.00
and the Metcalfe car at about
$300.00
On Saturday, Alan Hafer-
mehl, local jeweller, was
proceeding north on the main
street and as he turned into a
parking space at his place of
business his vehicle was struck
in the left rear by another dri-
ven by Ivan R, Bolton of R. R,1,
Formosa, Damage to the Haf-
ermehl car was estimated at
$150.00 and to the Bolton ve-
hicle at $50.00,
Both mishaps were investi-
gated by town police.
