%Work. All cement needs
additional water to
complete its chemical
reaction known as
hydrating. In the summer
there is no problem but in
the winter it is necessary
to protect cement from
frost. The water may
freeze before the
hydration is complete
and the concrete will •not
be as durable.
Aggregates may cause

serious. Chert is an
aggregate which has a
bad habit of absorbing
water, freezing and
popping. Pop -outs, if they
occur must be found,
removed and repaired.
Testing of concrete is a
science in itslef - various
mixes are made and
exposed to weathering
over periods of time to
assess the aggregates
and cements. Freeze -
thaw tests in special
cabinets, compression
tests, rebound tests .and
core drilling are some of
the research methods
used on cement.

Council
Turn down invitation to meet
CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, Thug$DAy, SEPTEMBER 6, 1979,PAOS 0
By Wilma Oke
McKillop council
members agreed
Tuesday to turn down an
invitation from the Town
of Seaforth to attend a
meeting in Seafo'rth along
with councils, from its
four neighboring town-
ships The meeting set for
September 12 called for
the townships to
negotiate the terms of the
town's ' proposed
agreement to sell fire
protection to the town-
ships.
The townships —
McKillop, Tuckersmith,
Hibbert and 1-lullett, have
refused to consider
buying protection from
Following the formal
presentation Mustard

questions and he could
have answered more if
time had been available.

to-earth presentation on a
"hard" subject by an
acknowledged expert in
his field. Presented in a
breezy and entertaining
manner it was a high spot

the town and have been
going along with plans to
continue the
management of the
present fire fighting
service. Seaforth by
opting out of the
agreement • will lose 'all
equity in the equipment
at the end of December.
Ata meeting, last week,
Seaforth learned it will
cost over $70,000 for a,
new fire truck.,
Seaforth clerk James
Crocker, concerned about
the ill -feeling that has
been created over the
town's proposed with-
drawal from the fire area
board, wrote a letter to
the Fire Area Board
asking the members to
arrange a meeting with
the town and negotiate
the. terms of Seaforth's
plan to sell fire protec-
tion. ,The township
representatives agreed to
take the proposal back to
their councils with the
result that McKillop
turned down the in-
vitation at Tuesday af-
ternoon's council session.
Reeve Allan Campbell
said it is so disheartening
that the town has not
changed its mind and
insists on considering
only its proposal to sell
fire protection, refusing
to renegotiate the present
fire area board
agreement which has
been in effect for 10 years
at the end of December.
The reeve said, "We
are willing to negotiate a
joint agreement of the
present five "
• municipalities qs now
• exists but. we are not
twilling . to buy fire
protection. from Seaforth.
I feel sorry for • our
(McKillop) ratepayers
who have helped to pay
the big share in the
present equipment and
now those, who have
moved to Seaforth, are
faced with duplication."
McKillop council was
informed by a council
official from Hullett that
the Township of Hullett
remained firm in its
decision at a council
session Monday night not
to buy fire protection
from Seaforth but to go
along with its neigh-
boring townships in
managing the present
equipment at the e,nd of
the year.
Councillor Joseph
Gibson of Hullett in a
telephone conversation
Tuesday said he did not
think the four reasons
Seaforth gave for opting
out were insurmountable.
"Educated people should
be able to talk it out and
settle the differences." -
Councillor Gibion, said
he would still consider
-Nnegotiating the present
board agreement if
Seaforth would agree.
'Tuckersmith Township
Council at its meeting
Tuesday night declared it
was willing to renegotiate
the present . agreement
now in' effect but was
unwilling to negotiate.,the
terms of purchasing fire
protections from We*
town.
Tuckersznith is hosting
a meeting of the four
townships . at Huron
Centennial School,
Brucefield on September
11.. The meeting will be
closed to the press as the
details of managing their
own fire departtnent are
worked out by' the
townshiP councils.
• Hibbert Township met
Tuesday night as well and
they too will write
Seaforth council that they
will decline to buy fire
protection from the town
but are willing to meet
and negotiate the present
agreement with the five
municipalities involved
to be members of the
present Seaforth Fire
Area Board.

St. Marys may have
been a good setting for a
re -make of the classic
Alfred Hitchcock movie,
The Birds, but the town
has not been pleased with
the summer invasion of
starlings. Last week
action was taken to
eliminate some of the
thousands of birds.
The St. Marys Journal -
Argus reported that half
a dozen sharpshooters,
under police supervision,
let fly with shotgun blasts
last week in an attempt to
rid the town of its plague
of starlings. The shooting
into the trees in one area
of. town was authorized by
the town council
following complaints
from neighborhood
residents.
Complaints were sent
to council and the Perth
Board of Health con-
cerning the large flocks
of birds that roosted near
the library. Trees had
been turned white with
their droppings:.
In order to clean the
area, the . town's fire
department was called in
to Spray the trees with
water.
