OKAY FUNDING
The Ministry of Natural Resources
has allocated $300,000. to the new
Community Wildlife Involvement
Program (('.W.I.P.) in Ontario.
This program responds to the
public's growing interest in wildlife.
it provides a hands-on program that
gives volunteers a chance to improve
condition's for wildlife directly and to
enhance recreational pursuits that de-
pend.on wildlife.
('.1h'.I.P. projects can include rais—
ing certain game birds, enhancing
wildlife habitat, monitoring wildlife
populations or creating backyard
habitat for wildlife.
"interested groups and individuals
are encouraged to submit wildlife pro-
jects for this Ministry:s approval"
said Wingham District Biologist Mike
Malhiot. "Once approved, the pro-
jects may receive funding to cover the
costs of materials and equipment us-
ed by the volunteer workers, who will
receive the advice and expertise of
the district's wildlife specialists."
number of right angle bends will be
protected from erosion by the con-
struction of steps graded at three to
four percent, which should be self-
cleaning and not pick up silt.
A 48" township culvert which has
never had the full force of water will
be replaced with a six-foot one.. The
old culvert is still in excellent condi-
tion, and Holdworth suggested it be
used near the south town line, where
one is needed.
As no names were added to or
withdrawn from the petition for clean-
out and repairs, the bylaw was given
first and second reading. A court of
revision on the Forrest -Thompson
drain 'will be held in the council
chamber on Monday August 19.
Tenders will be called for the same
date. If there are no appeals, the work
should be done this fall.
Holdsworth reported he had met on-
site with Harold and Paul Elder and
Reeve Lionel Wilder after the Elders'
request that a lower assessment be
considered for hook-up into the
Boersma drain. A motion initiated by
Councillor Murray Keys was passed
lowering the assessment to Paul
Elder from $875 to $725. The first ex-
penditure from that amount will be to
install a catch basin on the east side
of the second concession in front of lot
nine. W.G. Bartlett and Associates
were instructed to prepare revised
schedules for maintenance on the Van
Steeg and Boersma drains to accom-
modate changes resulting from
Elders' hook-up to the Boersma drain.
Wilder expressed concern about
possible future problems on the
Koehler drain if culverts are too small
at times to handle large flows of water
from Hensall. Holdsworth was asked
to study the culvert sizes and prepare
a report for council.
Wilder asked Holdsworth if the
township should hold or return the
deposit cheque for repairs to the
Logan-Datars drain, as "a lot of wet
ponding" is causing problems in one
area o1{ the west side of the main tile,
and Wilder speculates a tile must not
be working. Holdsworth said the che-
que could be returned, as a contrac-
tor is responsible for his work for a
year after a job is completed, whether
he's been paid or not.
Bill Monnikendam, representing
the Lakewood Gardens South
Association, attended the council ses-
sion to ask what could be done about
in -
cent :a=rllnlftWtl)tlfltil7l'aZii i
Bryans of St. Marys which Mont
nikendam described as an eyesore.
Monnikendam said taxpayers in the
subdivision feel this building is
devaluing other property in the area.
Wilder said Hay township does not
yet have either a zoning bylaw or a
property standards bylaw. He pro-
mised to check with the building in-
spector to see whether or not the
structure complies with the building
code, and talk to the Medical Health
Officer to ensure that their regula-
tions are not being violated.
Steve Burns of B.M. Ross and
Associates Ltd. came to the meeting
to discuss the waste disposal site us-
ed by Hay and Zurich. Matters such
as a buffer area and acquisition of
more land will be discussed with lan-
downer Anastasia Martin and
neighboring Zurich in the near future.
Councillors agreed not to up -date
assessments to a 1980 market value
basis, as the present 1975 value is
more realistic than the inflated prices
prevailing five years ago.
Council held a special meeting on
July 15 to authorize a sewer hook-up
for the Hay ball diamond after per-
mission was granted to cut across the
road. The cost will be $400. A $200 pay-
ment for a water connection charge
for installation of a :6 r" service line by
the Zurich Water System was also
authorized. .
The meeting adjourned at 11:10
p.m.

Bert M. Francis will celebrate his
99th birthday on July 29.

Rust Check fa ilka no other rust treatment available today. It is the only system that works
on both now and used vehicles, awn when rust is obvious.
✓Rust Check Is economical, dean
and sat. —
For a very low annual cost, rust can
be held In check for years. Unlike oil,
tar and waxed -based sprays, Rust
Check is so clean and. harmless it
can be safely applied to chrome,
door locks and handles. Rust Check
will not damage asphalt.
Today's new lighter unitized car
bodies need Rust Check protection
because rust, besides speeding
depreciation will actually weaken
the car structure. Older vehicles will
last longer and maintain a higher
trade-in value because Rust Check
checks the spread of existing rust.
/How Rust Check works
Rust Check is a special formula
that will.
1 Evaporate moisture.
2 Penetrate existing rust, tight
seams and crevices, right through
to the base metal for maximum
protection
3 Creep continually to provide year
'round protection
it'Applied while you watch.
Only one hour Is required for a
complete Rust Check treatment. Rust
Check can be applied in any kind of
weather. Heat, rain, snow and slush
will not affect its performance.
