proud, Allan Cranston Hired By Twp.
West Wawanosh Township
Countil met for its regular „meeting
On 'Tuesday evening, November.
4th. All members attended and
Reeve Lyons presided.
The minutes of the October
meeting were read and adopted an
motion of Councillors Hickey and
Foran.
Trustees from the Police Village
of Manchester (Auburn) attended
the meeting and asked Council
about the road subsidy owing them
' by the Township. Council informed
them again of its intention to repay
the subsidy over a two-year period,,
which arrangement • had been
acceptable by the Chairman of the
Trustees in August at a meeting
with a representative from the-
Ministry of Treasury Economics
and Intergovernmental Affairs, the
Chairman of the Trustees and the
Reeve and Clerk of the Township'.
Messrs. M. Wilson and. C.
Cranston presented a Petition 'for
Drainage to Council. On motion of
Councillors Stothers and Foran,
Council accepted the Petition and
directed the Clerk to contact
Maitland Valley Conservation
Authority to inform them of its
acceptance.
Thee Anderton Drainage Works
(Ashfield) which needs a cleanout,
was discussed. 'The Clerk reported
that the part of the said drain lying
in West Wawanosh Township is to
be maintained by West Wawanosh
Township and maintenance charg-
ed to the entire drain. The Reeve
agreed to inspect the drain,
ascertain the problem and decide
on what steps to follow to repair it.
On motion of Councillors Hickey
and Cranston, Council gave the
Reeve authority 'to proceed to take
whatever steps he deemed neces-
sary to have the drain repaiied.
The Clerk had received two
tenders for the construction of the
Gaunt Municipal Drain, and these
were opened and discussed. One
covered the open work only, the
other, both open and tile work. The
engineer was contacted by tele-
phone and the Clerk discussed the
amount of the tender received for
the whole drain. After being
advised • that the tile work tender
price was about 20% higher than
the engineer's estimate in the
Report, Council directed the Clerk
to contact the owners in the drain to
inform them of the increase and to
ascertain if the majority of them
felt the tender should be accepted.
Motion by Councillors Foran and
Hickey: "That West Wawanosh
Township Council accept the tend-
er of R. Nicholson Construction,
Sebringville, for the construction of
the Gaunt Municipal Drain at
$25,560.00,• subject to approval of
the majority of the' owners on the •
drain".
The twelve applications for the
position of Township employee and
grader operator were. opened and
read to Council by the Clerk. After
careful • deliberation, a motion by
Councillors Hickey and Foran,
accepted the application of Allan
Cranston, R. R. 2 Lucknow, for the
said position. Motion carried
unanimously.
The important points of a letter
and report on the bridge 'to span
the' Maitland River at Lot 26,
Concession 4-5, submitted by Len
Authier of the Ministry of Trans-
portation and Communications,
was reported to Council, by the
Clerk. The main point raised by
Mr. Authier *was that the expend-
iture required to'construct a' bridge
at this point far outweighed the
benefits to be derived, and the
Ministry would not subsidize any
part of such expenditure.
The road accounts were ordered
paid on motion of Councillors
Hickey and. Cranston.
The Clerk was instructed .to
notify the• solicitor, Robert Camp-
bell, that the, agreements for the
acquisition of • the fire hall in
Lucknow and for fire protection by
Lucknow Fire Department appear-
ed to be in order.

their fortune and they made plans
quickly upon , receiving a phone call
at midnight the Thursday previous.
They travelled directly from Malton
to Honolulu, a 9' hour flight,
leaving at 4.15 Sunday afternoon
and arriving in Honolulu all p.m.
with 'a five hour difference in time.
They went to their hotel in
Wiakiki on the sands of the Pacific
to live for eight days before leaving
for the Island of Maui and the
beautiful Kaanapoli Beach hotel
where they• spent the next "week.
While' in' Honolulu, Oliver and
Marion decided to explore the city
on their own and rode down town
on "The Bus". Returning home to
• their hotel in late afternoon, they
thought they saw Frances (Mont-
gomery) Reed 'get on the bus, but
in a city as large 'as Honolulu,
decided they were mistaken.
However, on disembarking at their
hotel, they also saw her get off, and
spoke to her, nearly causing her to
faint as she didn't expect anyone to
call her by name so far away from
home. She and her granddaughter
were holidaying in a hotel nearby
and were leaving for home in , a
couple of days. It was a great few
moments of chatter and ftm and a
feeling that.'no matter where you
travel, you find someone you know.
Frances and Marion had attended .
Ripley High School in their school
days.
A. holiday in the ' Hawaiian
Islands is 'beyond description and
the fact that •tickets were available
for all the best shows and trips was
fantastic. A trip to Pearl Harbour,
the Cultural Centre where • they
enjoyed the show L"An InVitation to
Paradise" presented live by the
Polynesian people from Fiji, Tahiti,
New Zealand, Hawaii, Samoa,
Maori, and Tonga, a trip to the •
Haleakala Crater, about 12,000'feet
above sea level, learning to do the
Hula dance and eating pineapple
for every meal, is something One
dreams about, but seldom does.
Vince and Ethel Mountford leave
no stone unturned for a pleasant
holiday; and when a group of
Canadians such as •they had on the
tour get together,- there is fun for
all, you can be sure. Driving your
own rented car around an Island,
up and down mountains and seeing
for yourself the life style of all races
living as one in •-harmony, peace
arid happiness, gives you a lift and
shows how Paradise can be.

Chance Meeting
With Schoolmate
While In *Hawaii
By Marion McCharles
At the request of the 'Sentinel,
the following story' of a chance
meeting in Hawaii was written by
Marion McCharles of Lochalsh.
* •
It's a small world after all.
When one is almost 7000 miles
from. home, You hardly expect to
meet a former schoolmate, riding
on the same bus.
This is what happened to Oliver
and Marion McCharles in the city
of Hbnolulu. It was quite by chance
that Oliver and Marion were on the
conducted , tour of Hawaii with
Vince and Ethel Mountford during
the past few weeks. A few days
previous to the trip, Oliver and
Marion didn't know they would be
travelling along with the tour, but
someone else's misfortune was Lucknow Phone 528-3112,
