Twelve write for
local book project
For the third year in a row,
the pupils at the Grand Bend
public school have shown
their interest in reading for
education and recreation in a
school project run in con-
junction with National Book
Week.
Twelve pupils, six boys
and six girls, were selected
several weeks ago to write
original compositions ex-
plaining memorable points
of a book they had read. Two
pupils were chosen from
each of the five grades, from
3 to 8.
The project has been the
work of Ruth Lemon, co-
owner of The Book Store on
Main Street, who has
collaborated with County
librarian Shirley Perriam
and principal Sid Fletcher to
get the idea going.
The 12 young writers were
given their awards
November 23. A small gift
certificate, redeemable at
The Book Store, was mostly
used by them to obtain good
reading material, Mrs.
Lemon said. There was also
a certificate of achievement
given out.
"Children here really
read. and they are en-
couraged by their school,
too. I felt the project would
41•11M&
give them added impetus to
read, especially when they
give evidence of enjoying
it," she said.
Mrs. Lemon had written
away to the Children's Book
Center in Toronto for the
materials to organize the
project. The Arts Council of
Canada sponsors it. Mrs.
Lemon and Mrs. Perriam
together worked out the
topics, with the result that
the seniors wrote on how a
particular book influenced
them, while the juniors
wrote on why they would
recommend a particular
boo!: to a friend. The finished
compositions were put on
display in her store.
The pupils are: Grade 3 -
Michael Clay and Sheri
Twynstra; Grade 4 - Brian
Baird and Paula Sawyers;
Grade 5 - Deanne Thar and
Claude Dykstra; Grade 6 -
Tina Bergmann and Robbie
Humer; Grade 7 Chris
Bressette and Debbie
Sawyers; Grade 8 - Sandy
Page and Robert Tubrett.

to install missing sewer connection
Grand Bend council voted
Monday to enter into a
development agreement
with the Ministry of the
Environment to oversee the
installation of a sewer
connection which was
overlooked last year when
the village's sewage system
was put in place.
The ministry subsequently
agreed to install the missing
connection at no extra
charge when the matter was
raised at a sewer liaison
committee meeting in Grand
Bend September 29. The
property in question faces on
Huron Street and is owned by
John Spence.
The three-way develop-
ment agreement obliges
Spence to pay the cost of
hooking up any future
residence to the sewer line,
in compliance with the
village's bylaw requiring all
residents to use the new $5
million sewage system by
the end of 1982. The village
will oversee that this bylaw
is obeyed.
Council subsequently
agreed under bylaw 5010 to
re -zone Spence's three lots
on Huron Street to two lots of
4,800 square feet each. His
application to this effect had
previously been approved by
the county planning board
and the village's planning
board. Spence later ex-
plained that although he has
no present intentions of
developing his property, this
re -zoning would prevent any
future owner from building
establishments such as an
apartment building there.
Dennis Snider told council
that 3,600 yards of clay had
been purchased for a total
price of $10,000 for use in the
disposal site to en-
vironmentally seal it. The
present dump site is full, he
said, and a new area would
have to be dug by 1983 to
make more room. There is
still much room left unused
on the village -owned site, but
some digging will have to be
done before it will be en -
One mishap
at Pinery Park
There was one car acci-
dent reported by the Pinery
Park Detachment of the
OPP during the week of Nov.
29 to Dec. 5. On Monday.
there was a two -car collision
on highway 21 at Parkview
Crescent. The drivers were
Marty Lacey of Grand Bend
and Todd Struthers of
Brights Grove. A passenger
in the first car, Kathleen
Lacey. was injured. Damage
to each car was estimated at
$1.500.
During the week there
were 14 charges laid under
the Highway Traffic act. and
four laid under the Provin-
cial Parks Act. Two persons
were charged under the Li-
quor Licence Act. and one
was charged with impaired
driving. There were three in-
cidents of property damage
for which charges were laid.
There were four mis-
cellaneous occurrences.
vironmentally ready to
accept garbage.
The village bulldozer is
also being repaired, he said,
at an estimated cost of $600.
Council heard a letter from
a Southcott Pines resident
complaining about garbage
accumulating on the Ausable
River bank behind the
Pinedale Motel. The build-up
was due to the rapid ex-
pansion of the motel, and the
refuse will be moved out
soon.
There was also a letter
from Lhe ministry of tran-
sportation and com-
munications agreeing to pay
the cost of replacing the
traffic signal at Highways 21
and 81. It will use an advance
green light as deemed
necessary by the village. The
light will have to be opened
to tender to determine the
actual cost.
A sign permit costing $10
was approved for Thompson -
Warner Motors.
The recent heavy snowfall
on Saturday raised the
problem of a weekend snow -
clearing policy for the
village foreman, Jack
Stanlake. Keith Crawford
suggested that individuals
would have to learn to
moderate driving habits to
suit snow and ice conditions
in the absence of street
cleaning operations on the
weekends. It was finally
decided to leave the decision
of clearing snow on
weekends to the foreman's
discretion.
Council appointed Leroy
Keyes, Ivan Sharrow and
Bill Freele to the cbmetery
committee.
Harold Greene told council
that Lambton County has
made the Sarnia Lambton
Tourist Council into a branch
of the Economic Develop-
ment Commission of the
County.
Reeve Bob Sharen men-
tioned that he had been
called Monday about a diesel
oil spill in the Ausable River.
He said he notified the
branch office of the Ministry
of Environment in Sarnia
and two inspectors came to
check It.
