A delegation from Huron
County ,Council will be inter-

provincial minister of high-
ways, at Toronto on Wednes-
day of next week—but it will
be on a matter of less , im-
portance than that of • pressing
for a new bridge over the
Maitland ..ha.ver....a; 1,t oK &
In a letter to The Signal -
Star, John W. Hanna, M.P.P.,
for ,Huron -Bruce, who is look-
ing after the interests of the
riding ._ a _ Huron--since---the--
death of Tom Pryde, saki: "I
have spoken to Mr. Allan re-
garding the prospects for a
new bridge at Saltford and I
understand that I am to meet
a delegation here (Toronto) at
the Good Roads convention
l(February 24-26) to take this
matter up with the Minister,
which I think is the proper
way to Ileal with this."
Since receiving the above
16ter, the Signal -Star has
learied that ,,the delegation -
from Huron County will be
seeing .Hon.- James -Allan- . om.a
matter that has no connection
with the Saltford bridge.
Would it not be well for this
delegation to bring up the
matter of the need for a new
bridge at Saltford?
In the meantime, every ef-
_.fart_should be made to have a
aelegation- gay- to -Toronto with
no other purpose than that of
pressing for a new bridge. It's
no secret that the bridge is
--c bsolete and _. -a._. -deterrent -to_. _.
decent highway traffic' through
Goderich. With the bridge
over the Saugeen river at
Southampton now under way,
the Saltford bridge,,, as. it has
been pointed out on previous
occasions, is the last antique
of its.kind on Highway No. 21.
Let's have some action on
the part of responsible organiz-
ations in this area! Let's have
a delegation to Qqeen's Park
on the matter.. Whether it be
from the Town of - Goderich,
the surrounding townships,
the Jayeess, the Industrial
Commission or what-have•you,
let's have someone spearhead
a delegation—but soon. Of-
ficials of the Maitland Golf
Club have never been ,ap-
proached regarding the pos-
sible use of part of their
grounds for the passing over
it of a new bridge. If the
government planned to build
the bridge in this area within
_the next year, the golf- club
_officials -would proba-bly have -
• been approached before this,
since such arrangements are
made about a year in advance .
of any new bridge planned
over new territory.
It's the squeaking wheel
which 'gets the grease. Will
no organization or group of
citizens form a delegation and
go to Queen's Park to press
for a needed new bridge at
S,altford?

SKIERS ACTIVE
The ski run on Maitland Driver's
farm, on the Huron road about
four miles south of town, has been
a fairly, busy spot on week -ends
this winter. There is a 1,000 -foot
ski tow at the site, --and there has
been no scarcity of snow during
recent weeks.' -.
Mercy Mission
In Snow Storm
Only, a• few hours of fuel oil'
heating left and no milk to make
the formula for the two weeks' old
baby.
This was the predicament which
Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Lassaline, on the
fourth concession of Goderich
Township, found themselves in at
the peak of the snow blizzard on
Tuesday. The road to their farm
was blocked solid and they hadn't
a chance to get to town or have a
fuelnil truck eall.
Placing a phone call • to Ernie
Richardson at Imperial 011, Gode-
rich, their story was told. Mr.
Richardson contacted Roy Sparling
at the C.N.R. Oil and milk for
.the baby's formula were obtained
and rushed to the C:N.R. station.
There, it was placed aboard a
snow plow special heading back
down the lie. Conductor Ward
stopped the train on the way down
and tha oil and milk was delivered
to the Lassaline farm house near
the C.N )R. line in Goderich Town-
ship. ,The road was not opened
until Wednesday morning. -

Science has taken a giant step
toward victory in the battler with
the deadly, parasitic sea lamprey.
Dr. James W. .Moffett, chief of
the Great Lakes fishery investiga-
tion . of the U.S. fish and wildlife
service, announced that the first
stream trial of a new chemical
poison to control sea lampreys
"was very successful."
His announcement said the test
was conducted recently on a two,
.milestretch of Little,Billie's
(Elliot) creek which empies into
• Duttean- Bay on Lake Huron near
Cheboygan, Mich.
Scientists called the test 92 'per-
cent effective so far and indica-
tions were that the final lamprey
kill would top 95 percent in effec-
-tiveness.
The poison, developed by, the
Dow Chemical Co. of Midland, was
introduced into the stream using
a precision mechanical feeder
the rate of 30 parts_ per-.1,O00,f100-.

Conservation officials explained

In line with numerous other
weekly newspapers Which have
found it necessary to increase
their price, single copies of
the St. Mary's -Journal-Argus
will be 10 cents each instead
of 7 cents, effective February
20, 1958.
In announcing the increase,
the weekly newspaper at St.
Marys said: "Generally increas-„
ing production costs over the
past number of years have re-
sulted in this decision being
made to increase the single
copy price, and the..publisher
and staff of the Jourfial-Argus
are hopeful that all present
single copy purchasers will not
find the added cost too in-
convenient."

The gradual switch from steam
.to diesel locomotives will mean
that a few railway men will prob-
ably be transferred out of Gode-
rich, but the effect hasn't been very
pronounced yet.
The CPR will start operating a
new diesel between Goderich and
Hamilton next, Monday and it is
probable th_a, couple of Goderich
Mem will have to work out of
other ponts as a result of the
change, but they will still remain
in the employ of the railway.
Diesels do not require nearly
as much servicing' as steam loco-
motives, it is pointed out ,by K. F.
