Ontario's weather is getting colder, and iiVith that trend we're also experiencing sharper temperature shifts, accbrding to Terry Gillespie of the University of Guelph. He told a meeting of about 200 farmers that studies of the past indicate that when the climate is in a warn period - gts'it has been for the past 40 years - the ,temperature. also tends to be steadier. ak When the climate shifts into a colder period - and there is /111. evidence of such a shift • during the past few years - the temperature bounces up and down More draniatically, (V, He tdld the farmers that • weather forecasters - an he used to be one in.Montreal - are reasonably accurate for long-term trends and for • large land areas. .,But for the individual farm "you can beat the weather forecaster every time by keeping an. eye on winds and the sky and using folk lore." That's because the weather forecaster is working QD a scale that will show a front of a system as aline that,can be two counties wide, he said. "We simply can't say what will happen on your in- dividual farm within that line," he said. He said the weathegmar) is better at "forecasting the movement of large-scale weather , systems covering thousands of acres such as the high pressure cells that control periods of dry weather." From our early files (continued from page 4) The newly elected mem- -hers of the town council net On Monday morning, ac- cording to law, for its inaugural .meeting. The Mayor presided, with Clerk Coats in his' usual place, and all the aldermen were in place with their best bibs and tuckers on and settled down to start the year with a resolution to d� everything for the interests.. of the ratepa yers.

Evening parties are still all the go, and_many enjoyable hours are being spent in teas, games and little private dances. Mrs. Jas. Fair, jr., entertained a few friends last Friday evening. Miss Eva Shaw a number of friends Wednesday • evening, and Mrs. W. Brydone on Thur- sday night those who have honor of an invitation to the At Home to be given by Mr. and Mrs. G. D. McTaggart in the town hall, next Tuesday evening, are looking forward to the event with much ex- pectancy and pleasure. The fourth assembly by the New Century club will be given in the town hall on Friday night, February 7. . • 100 YEARS AGO., • January 18,1877 The first meeting of the council elect for this town, .was held on Monday, at 11 a.m.. After handing in their declarations of qualification, all of the members were duly sworn in. The Councillors then. took their seats, the Mayor in the chair. Minutes of ,last meeting read and adopted. Messrs. Corbett, Sheppard, Menzies, Matheson, , and the Reeve, were appointed to strike Standing Committees for the year after which the Coun.dil adjourned till 7:30 p.m. One day last week, while Mr. Arthur Cantelon was standing .on a barrel, it slipped, throwing him down. on the ice, and fracturing his thigh. Mr. Cantelon is an old man, and the accident will be the more severe on that ac- count. Up to the present, this has been one of the most pleasant winters experienced for a long time. Since sleighing first in, it has steadily remained, there being frequent 'additions of snow to keep it in good order. True, the weather has been oc- casionally severe and sfor- my, but taking it all together, the winter thus far, compares very favourably with any of previous years. • The good • sleighing has proved quite acceptable so farmers and those having much teaming to do, as a very large quantity of wood, logs, etc., has been brought in. People may consider, themselves fortunate, should the weather be as fine generally towards the end of the winter as it has been since the beginning. On Saturday last, the land on which the bending factory lately stood, on Victoria Street, belonging to Mr. W. 7. Holmes, was sold by auction. and realized the sum of $450 cash. This was considered a fair price. At the Same tire a quarter acre lot at the ex. treme western limit of the town, at present under .a three -year's lease, the tenant to pay taxes and fence it, was sold for $4l., This was thought a very good .price, as the purclfaser will have no benefit from it for three years. r-• Volunteers needed for Bluewater Centre • CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1977.m -PAG 1,, A The, Volunteer Services +,,,,,I,, Depiitment of Bluewater ' '`,' . .
