For Ken Johnstone and Rod McDonagh, both of Lucknow it was the thing to do in order to check the valves in the Lucknow pool. The Lucknow Sentinel reported that the two divers braved the chilly November water after a three inch drop in the water level of the pool each week for the past two weeks was discovered. If the drop continued, the pool would empty by,spring which would cause some $2,000 damage to the pool liner. The Brussels Post learned this week that residents of Brussels, Morris and Grey Townships are eligible to occupy apartments in the Brussels Senior citizen apartment building. John Lyndon, housing manager of the Huron County Housing authority, said that the building, which contains 34 units has three vacancies. The apartment rents are geared -to -income. This allows senior citizens to obtain housing at the rents they can afford. Kincardine may be one of the best known communities in Ontario, that is if the Chamber of Commerce's publicity program,. is com- pleted. The Kincardine News 'reported that the plan proposed by the town council and backed by the local Chamber will make Kin- cardine known far and wide. Nearly $10,000 will be spent on the campaign which will include three types of tourist brochures complete with colour photographs, to be mailed to various, spots throughout Ontario. The local Chamber will be contributing $3,000 to the project and a total of 25,000 brochures will be printed. - CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1977 --PAGE 5A The St. Marys town council have endorsed a decision from Police Chief Ed Matheson to ask two police officers to resign from the St. - Marys fire department. The St. Marys Journal - Argus reported that Const. Don Oke asked permission to join the firefighters and presently Sgt. Robert Dundas of the St. Marys Police Force is the firemen captain. However, the Ontario Police Act discourages the idea of having police officers involved in other forms of employment, since it may interfere with their duties as an officer. For instance, a policeman may he called to duty the same time he was being called away to a fire. Chief Matheson noted that the duties of a police officer and a fireman at a fire are two entirely different things.

C been walking for three years for the Kidney Foundation of Canada. The Listowel Banner ex- plained last week that this Monkton family recently completed another 21 km. for the fund. Their interest in the fund stems from the fact that Lloyd McLean, 25, developed a kidney disease when he was 18 years old and spent two years undergoing dialysis. He received a kidney transplant in 1975. ' The family also began their annual walks that year to pay tribute to Lloyd who walked part of the route. In his honour, the family raised $1,100 in pledges, up from $200 that was gained the first year. This year an added at- trraction was held. Mrs. McLean donated an electric blanket for a draw which was held. An explosion at the Dunline Division of Dunlop Industrial Limited, Huron Park sent two men to hospital with serious i'ijuries. The Exeter Times - Advocate reported. The accident, which oc- curred in a rail tank car, ripped open a huge hole in the plant roof and badly burned Bryan- Finch and Harry Plantenga, who were working at the tank carat the time. The Mitchell Advocate reported that Bob Robinson from R.R. 4, Walton won in the Hampshire classes at the Royal Winter Fair. He had the Grand Champion gilt along with the reserve champion gilt and the reserve champion boar. He was awarded the Premiere Breeder and Premiere Exhibotor Banners. Like it or not, Goderich residents have a new coat- of arms. The Goderich Signal - Star reported that the first draft of the new coat of arms was received by Rick Banks of Port Credit who was acting on the behalf of the town in the acquisition of a distinctive coat of arms. Its first preview by the town councillors got ,a mixed reaction and many were unsure whether they liked the fierce looking tigers, on each side, or the greyhound holding the salt shaker on top. In fact, Councillor Elsa Haydon found the symbols to be so ridiculous that she laughed to the point that tears came to her eyes. Nearly all the other -councillors had to laugh at Councillor Haydon's extreme enjoyment of the episode, but they quickly remembered that the production of the emblem will cost them at least $2,000. If Dashwood is to grow, Hay Township may need another source of water in the future. The Zurich Citizens News reported that township citizens who attended . the workshop for the township plan learned that Hay's wells are in terrible shape and that 75 per cent ofthe water samples that are coming back are not fit to use. George Tiernan, who is chairman on the Board of Trustees in Dashwood ex- plained that there was good underground seepage from the septic tanks but the water was seeping back into the wells. Lack of services was also discussed at the meeting and it was felt that a shopping mall in Exeter would be hard on the businesses in smaller villages, according to Lloyd Willert, president of the local National Farmer's Union. An editorial in the Huron Expositor says the town's merchants must ,work together, to promote their businesses and the town. Through this, business may be better and local people may spend more of their pay checks in .town rather than in Stratford or London.' - The editorial continued to say that a little promotion makes a difference, as was evident on a recent Friday evening when the merchants held a "Midnight Madness" sale which brought out literally thousands of shop- pers to Seaforth's main street. However, the editorial noted that it is difficult to feel much loyalty to merchants when the shops are closed on Wednesdays, or shut down for unch and each store keeps different hours. Brussels was given as an example of a town who has a mutua4 business spirit and for years the business association has been meeting once a month.
