The total bill will there- fore come to $196,321, Town Coun- cil learned last Friday night as first and second readings were. given to a bylaw authorizing the issuing of 20 -year debentures. The debentures will bear interest" at the rate of 4% per cent. It is expected that the Alex- andra Marine and General Hospital Board 'will call for tenders for the new wing about August 20, with ,Sepbember 15 to be the deadline for submitting them. Co eleillor James ' ' Donnelly, chairman of finance, said that 'Council has been following a pay- as-you-go policy, where possible, to ctavoid interest charges, but it was not feasible, heesaid, to stick to the policy in the ease of such a large expenditure as the hos- pital project. The debenture bylaw calls for the town to repay the '$125,000 principle, plus $71,321 snterest, in annual amounts .varying from. $9,630 to $10,057. The town's total debenture debt at the end of 19551 was about $1,200,000. 0 ffffivapor ,SELL IT THRU THE wANra►os }IBEX TS WHERE .TO BUY A SIGN 8TA1t..

Suddenly we realize that ,somehow or other, we've got caught up in a round of work and play that is comparative- ly meaningless to us, and which would be the heat of idiocy to an unprejudiced observer. By some coincidence, bhis usual- ly occurs after the children have just had a particularly exhausting bath. For us. Slumped in chairs, bedraggled, my wife leafing through the latest about Grace Kelly on the Riviera, me reading about Frank Sinatra owing more in income tax than. I'll make in my next twelve • reincarnations, it comes to us that . Something Is Missing. We are not Living Life To The Full.' We are missing something that is Gay and Exciting. Now, don't get me wrong. We don't go haywire on such occasions, and wish we had a million dollars, so we could go around in a mad swirl of Fun. 9 It usually takes the same course. Somebody says: "Wouldn't It be wonderful to live in France?" Or Spain. Next thing you know, we're talking quite seriously about it: how we could make a living; what a grand thing it would be for the kids to grow up with several lan- guages; how much it would actu- ally cost to live a year in Paris. - Well, we were in oue .of these moods the other night, and had just about arrived at the usual stone wall, when my wife suddenly had an inspiration. A new res- taurant, operated by an European couple, had just opened in town, and that's what gave her the idea. 4, * * "Why," says she, "couldn't we go to France and open a truly Canadian restaurant? After all, French, Italian, German, Greek, Chinese and every other type of restaurant opens in Canada. They feature their native dishes and everybody .flocks into them." * r" * 3: "By the golly," I retort, "I think you've finally got something there. You're a good cook, and I worked as a bellhop years ago, so I'd make aegood_ waiter. One thing .L Jearriedr -was- to --bring the change ---from a bill on_ a_ silver tray ;map-1ppJ,.dtpe itt around for each coin. Tips are 'big=ger that way. =t: * * * "I think a Canadian restaurant in Paris might go over big. A lot of people think Canadian cooking is dull, but when you get right down to it, there's.*no better food in the world. We'd be doing a lot to spread the real Canadian culture in Europe, too. Most of those Parisians think the only thing' we can cook with is dollars. * * * "We'd give the place a distinctly Canadian flavor. Might call it Chez Howe, -for example. Better still, and even more truly Canadian, would be Chez When. "We'd line the interior with Canadian flags. Say, Canada doesn't have a flag, does it? Let's see now. I know. The beaver is Can- ada's national emblem. I think. So we'll line the place with beaver board. ****: "The kids can sing like any- thing, so we wouldn't have any worries in the entertainment line. Every evening, just before they went to bed, they could favor the customers with a couple of spirit- ual verses of Canada's national anthem. Say, what is Canada's national emblem? 4' * 4, 4, "And we'd serve nothing, abso- lutely nothing, but good old Can- adian national dishes. Like, uh, spaghetti and meatballs. No, that's Italian. Uh, Irish stew. No? How about Boston baked beans? Nope. French fries? Not in Paris. Fish and chips? Chile con carne? Yorkshire pudding? Say, what IS a good old Canadian dish, • any- way?" - - By the time we'd narrowed it down to the point where we had decided the only epicurean delight that is truly Canadian is a grilled cheese sandwich, it was time to go to bed. Which we did. o SEE BUILDING About 40 members of Huron County Soil and Crop Improve- ment Association toured the new Curt House here Monday after- noon.
