Sutton spoke about the prophecies told in the book of Mark - of John the Baptist the great bap- tizer and the birth of Christ as the completion of the prophecy. During this Advent period Rev. Sutton called upon us to make preparations to have our hearts and minds open to be road -builders and not have our minds blocked by bigotry, hatred, jealousy and envy. He urged us to repent. to turn again to new beginnings and new laves and make way for "Someone" bigger than all of us. Rev. Sutton ended with the quotation "Make straight the way of the Lord."

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.

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.
