Now, we don't really go along with her thinking that her blood pressure, should rise every time she thinks of Goderich just because of this one isolated case. Although we do have to sympathise with Mrs. Leizert' (and personally if we caught these young punks who were throwing the rocks we'd like to string them up by their, gutless ear (lobes) it iistill,an isolated case and has to be treated as such. But— this one isolated case sure knocks Haedes out of the public relations work Dutch and his staff are doing, doesn't it.? • * * * ***Council have decided • to get another member to replace former Signal -Star Editor Ron Price who has been on temporary leave of absence from council chambers. According to the municipal act, Goderich town fathers have the right to appoint anyone they see fit. They have decided however to put a notice"in iGoderich's largest weekly and ten choose the man from the applicants. A much nicer way of doing, things, we'd --say. M And speaking 'of town daddies ---we've found the- answer why most of ours aren't the chubbiest little fellows in the world.

It all started around a week and one-half ago when we received a couple complaints over the phone about someone or soli* company, "polluting" the- Mditland, Since that time the calls have totalled six and we have sauntered Out to Benmiller, only to find no • real action other than a bulldozer sitting there. There was evidence of silt being taken away from the sides of the creek leading into the river, but nothing too positive. The matter came out at last week's council meeting when Frank Walkom toid of the calls. he had received of the '`tOns and Cons of silt going into the river." Apparently reeve Paul Carroll contacted the provincial government which resulted -in a stop work order last Friday afternoon: Staff members oT the Ontario Water ResOurCes Commission came over to Benmiller on Saturday and gave the orders — there is no more work, to be &Me there.

We were very pleasently surprised when the Kirismen's .Band played for us at the Goderich station. We had ,been told that there would be some sort of greetings upon pur arrival but we certainly didn't expect such special treatment., 'Unfortunately- because of some. confusion at the station, we, didn't thank the members sufficiently at the time., I hope that you will publish this letter so that they will know how much we enjoyed the music. - You might be interested to know that we had 188 people on - the train.
