Support two resolutions Stephen township council has given their support to two resolutions received recently. The first from Amabel township asks that assessments and real estate taxes on trailer parks be de com- parable to those of cotta This resolution will be presented at the August 25 to 27 convention of the ,,association of Municipalities of Ontario. The second was to support the Parks and Recreation of Ontario in their request to the provincial govern- ment that Wintario funds be used by no Ministry than that of recreation. A • hearing will be held at the Stephen Municipal office in Crediton to consider two zoning change applications. Len Veri has applied for a change in the Dashwood Hotel zoning from village commercial to village residen- tial to allow conversion of the building to a 10 unit apartment. Tile other request from Case Van Raay is to reduce the minimum lot size to 50 acres from 100 for Lot 20, North Boundary Concession. Tentative approval was given to a severance application to Leila Hill at part of lot 10, Concession 7 in the police village of Crediton. It will now be considered by the Huron land divi- sion committee. Council is making application to the province of Ontario for funds under the Ontario Home Renewal program. A few applications are on hold waiting for funding. Ausable-Bayfield Conservation Authority officials Tom Prout, Alec Scott and Cecil Desjardine discussed flood plain management with council. Approval was given to extend fill line mapping to Crediton and the Walker drain in the Grand Bend area. Sharon Romphf of the office staff will be attending a Municipal Finance Conference in London September 25 and26. ed 19 stained glass panels were ready for delivery after two months of inten- sive labour. Driving all the way to Sault Ste. Marie to supervise the installation is not unusual for this careful craft- sman. By keeping a close eye on every step in the production he wins the confidence of his fello .v workers as well as patrons. In this case the initial agreement was struck between Suppan and the parish Church of Our Lady of Good Counsel in the Soo last November. A total of 19 panels, each one 39" x 100" depict various scenes in the life of Christ from both old and new testaments. Below each window is another panel incorporating a suitable scripture. The scheme thus far is fairly standard. What makes this commission unique is the artistic input of the artist and his fellow workers. The basic plan calls for alternating pairs of windows with blue then amber coloured backgrounds predominating. This is where the ex- citement of artistic creation comes in. "The glass colour selection must be done in close relationship with the design," explains Suppan. The sub- ject matter and the mood can be altered simply by the choice of one tone of blue as opposed to another. These completed panels use up to seven shades of blue, then the dif- ferent textures of glass are brought into play as well. Much of the glass used in stained 'glass work done today is manufac- tured in factories here in Canada. However, better quality and better tones of glass usually come from Europe - France, Germany, or England. Antique glass, that which is still hand made, blown with a glace maker's pipe, has to be imported and is very expensive. Because of the metal oxides needed to give the col- our to the glass, the reds are the most costly --perhaps including some gold to produce a depth to the shade of red. Hours of careful searching for the right qualities in each piece required brings the total to 27 different colours integrated into the three completed panels thus far. Little wonder Suppan estimates over 300 hours of work just in the execution of each panel. In addition, the figures and other small details must be done by a pro- cess of paintings(staining) on the glass and then firing in a kiln before being fitted info the troughed lead dividers. An associate artist first makes a watercolour drawing of each figure, then a large scale paper pat- tern is taken from the drawing and transferred to the glass. Thus artist, designer and artisan must be as one to produce professional excellence. Summer holidays are out of the question now for WolfgAg Suppan and his family as he dedicates himself to the completion of the remaining 16 designs, work which he estimates will continue on into next spring. CORRECTION The omission of one word complete- ly reversed the intended meaning in last week's report on Hay council con- cerning the Beaver drain. The sentence should have read: "He also advised the township to make clear to the engineer that if the open ditch is closed in the future to become part of Exeter's storm sewer system, Hay should NOT be charged, as it will receive no benefit." r 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 111 1 Clip & Save ass. ---- VALUABLE COUPON Summer Specials effective July 31 - Aug. 1 8 2, while supplies last Tasty Nu Bread always fresh, finest quality Onion Rolls doz. 81.19 Old fashioned, pkg. of 6 Date Squares '1.99 Marble Cheddar Cheese Mozzarella Cheese Donuts a wide variety of delicious donuts qty Ba ery d Clrirt a Ileum Exeter 235-0332 Last Week's Shop Exeter Prize Winners GRAND PRIZE WINNER OF CARIBBEAN CRUISE Clarence Farwell, Maple Wood Apts.
