Bridle also reported that when the proper equipment to fill the swimming pools (such as hoses etc.), cannot be sup- plied by the person making the request to hook into the fire hydrant, the customer is referred to the local fire depart- rnent---which .•tali¢ pro ide this equipment.

"I am aware 'that" the resident miner coefficient in many mining municipalities was greater than .5 or 50 per $cent. However, any potential losses tomining municipalities arising from this difference are offset by the general Support Grant rate.of between 2 and 6 per, cent in Southern Ontario • and between 12 and 16 per cent in Northern Ontario, the precise rate depending on the rate of incrase of each m'unicipaltty's• spending in 1973. Furthermore, the definition of net general levy has been broadened and I have.. made the additional provision that each mining municipality will receive in 1973 at least 105 per cent of what it would other- wise have received accoridng to the mining revenue payments formula. "I am therefore confident that all former mining Municipalities will find the Stabilization Plan quite advan- tageout. _ "The payment which is en- closed will be deemed to be part of the 1973 payment to your municipality under the Property Tax Stabilization Plan. Since this amount is less than what your municipality will become entitled to as an interim payment under the Stabilization Plan, you may ex- pect a further- cheque in early summer." turning on and turning off the fire hydrant. McMillan said Goderich Guides need • • commissioner immediately Brownies of Goderich district desperately need the assistance of someone in this area. The position of District Com- missioner is vacant and must be filled as soon as possible. Without a Commissioner, the movement in this community which has flourished for many years, is in danger of falling apart. There are approximately .200 young Brownies and Guides in Goderich and also some in Bayfield; which is included in this district. Guiding these eager young people are about 15 leaders. These leaders are more than willing to give of their time and talents but, do want and need help through organization and training. Without this help, they become discouraged. ' Someone is needed t� help. these wilting workers. A District Commissioner's job does entail a fair amount of time and attention. One should -1 44 had some past Guiding experience, be able to drive to out-of-town meetings if necessary, like working with people, enjoy children and have time to devote to the 'cause. It is 'a demanding position .but surely reaps rewards in satisfaction and enjoyment.. The excitement in a Brownie pack when Madam Com- missioneris visiting is real. She is someone very special. Perhaps this—could be your way of helping the community or possibly you know of someone who might be suitable. It may be that two persons would like to combine their talents to fill this position. If so, please call Mrs. J. Britnell at 524-7475. Also welcomed are any calls from those who would like to help out as leaders. ww Yes we have 'em we carry the "TRUE TEMPER" bine ...

NORTH i S24-115111 residents need not fear that turning• on one fire hydrant for filling a swimming pool will en- danger adequate fire protection .3*anywhere in the municipality. McMillan said that it is only when several fire hydrants are turned on at one time (eg. Hallowe'en) ` that any . threat exists. There is a flat rate paid an- nually for homeowners with swimming pools. Persons gtlllons of water pay $10 per annum. The fee jumps to $30, per annum for homeowners with pools requiring 10,000 gallons of. water or more. McMillan said that many pools -these days are filled only once. The water remains in the pool throughout the winter and through filtering systems and chlorination is safe for an in- definite period. Some Goderich ratepayers have wondered at the value of summer watering restrictions when so many, many pools requiring large amounts of water are in use around the town. It has been pointed out, however, that many citizens neither observe the watering restrictions nor pay a $10 or $30 fee annually for the extra water used in a swimming pool. Sunset Golf News Golf is 'great. That's what everyone was saying at the Sunset on tihe weekend- The. temperature rose to a high of seventy-seven degrees until the Easter Sunday rain.

Under this new directive eight such ,warnings were issued. "Last week," Police Chief King reports, "an elderly per- son in Goderich was ap- proached by a man claiming to be from the pensions hoard who asked for bank account num- bers. We warn residents, and particularly older persons, that many people in the .past have been fleeced" by such methods. and that if approached by such requests the police should he contacted or at, least positive identification asked for." "These men are also very well dressed and make a good impression, people can be fooled by their appearance," the chief observed.
