With adult students. Usually
these students have had varying
degrees of experience with
lured and machine tools and
Iii attained dittering degrees
of skill and competence.
It is planned to have each
machine e\plamed, together
with the sale use and operation
of each demonstrated to all
students, atter which, each will
begin to work on a pruJect of
his own choosing.
Tile instructor will be avarl-
able for individual help and
advice as required, thus tree-
ing each student to progress at
his osyn speed, using approved

Business Association Seeks
Co-operation of Council
The regular meeting of
Wingharn council on Monday
evening faced a heavy agenda,
which kept the group working
until well after eleven o'clock.
The Wingtlarit Business As-
sociation, represented by its
chairman, Lorne McDonald,
and DeWitt Miller presented a
number of proposals to council.
Main items were a request for
a by-law to make it compulsory
for owners of main street pro-
perties to keep the walks clean
in winter; the use of ice pel-
lets instead of salt and sand; an
improvement in train street
decorations, some on a per-
manent basis and some for the
Christmas season, with a re-
quest for a grant of $200.00
for the purpose.
After considerable discussion
a committee comprised of
Councillors Callan, Bennett
and Bateson was named to meet
with the Association to investi-
gate plans for improved decora-
tions. Council later decided to
test the ice pellets for cost and
efficiency.
Joseph Clark attendedcoun-
cil requesting that his taxes be
reduced as he has suffered a
loss of revenue due to the sewer
construction program past his
place of business on Victoria
Street. Ile said he has lost
considerably more than anyone
else in town because the street
was torn up for long periods of
time.
Council later reviewed the
matter and decided that no al-
lowance be made to Mr, Clark
in his tax bill.
It was pointed out that Mr.
Clark did not have sewer con-
nections before the new project
was started and now he will
have a connection to the trunk
line on which there will be no
frontage assessment.
Park Board Chairman Harry
McArthur requested information
as to why the upper pond had
been drained at such an early
date. No member of council
could give an explanation, but
Reeve Adair said he will have
the town workmen replace the
boards in the sluicegate, but
not all the flash boards.
Kenneth Musclow, field of-
ficer for the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority, re-
ported to council that the Au-
thority had received a letter
from the lion. J. R. Simonett,
stating that his department has
authorized a grant of S29,250.
towards the scheme to improve
the lower town pond and darn.
Council set Tuesday, Octo-
:set lath as the date for open-
ing tenders for the construction
of a small sewer installation in
the Berry subdivision
A bylaw was passed to au-
thorize the leasing of the lower
town pond and dant, exclusive
of the rights for power develop -
trent to the Maitland Valley
C'nser%acton Authority.
A grant was approved
amounting to ,, b '.t"e? to W. B.
C.ru:ksl:ank for improvements to'
the airst;tp which will Ise r nown
as the Wingham Airport when it
reeeices its Iicense.
Council named Wilbur ur Tif-
fin, F. tr ;lkinson, W. Ei, Frena`
Reeve . dasr and Deputy Reeve
Jose Kerr to the eo:.rt of rev Is -
Clerk Sr.Ili:atn Renwick read
five building permits which had
a total value of $51, 100 and
were approved.
COMMITTEES
Councillor Cruickshank re-
porting for the police commit-
tee, said that Chic f James
Miller will soon set up a course
for the auxiliary members un-
der the Emergency Measures
program. The four candidates
chosen are Earl Jenkins, Sid
Adams, Fred Lee and Lorne
Gardner.
Reeve Adair said that paving
has been completed on several
streets and appears to be a
good job. Councillor Callan
asked if the committee plans
to build a sidewalk to replace
the broken section leading to
the arena on Victoria St. Reeve
Adair said the walk will be
black topped. Councillor Cal-
lan objected along with other
members suggesting it should
be a proper cement sidewalk.
Reeve Adair agreed to have
this done.
The reeve also said that a
truck which had been purchased
and for which tenders were
opened at a special meeting
was now at Crawford Motors.
Councillor Wild, reporting
for the fire committee, said
that the department has named
six auxiliary firemen, young
men who are training with the
brigade but will not be called
from work or school for fires,
or attend rural fires. The
group includes Rodney Hickey,
Francis Merkley, David Croth-
ers, Lynn Hickey, CharlesCon-
gram and Peter Russel.
