Mr. Mackie said he was not in favor of drilling his own well when municipal water lines were ailable to hire. lie suggested that it was unwise to put another well in the village block where he resides when a water supply Is already available. Ile further suggested that if he built a will, in 10 years time, the village could be the position where municipal water would be provided throughout the village. Mr. :\lackie said that in that event, he would have unnecessarily expended a great dea1of money. council, un advice from the engineering firm of B.M. gloss and Associates, denied \lr Mackie's request. The engineering report indicated that the present water sup - could not adequatel} service the private hotel owner. In motion passed by council the request %1/4 as denied, with the explanation that the illage (lo not expand any of its water • \ steins to accommodate any request from outside that system for which the system w:IS sized. At council's most recent meeting, on September 21, council members were again ;'.ked to consider selling municipal water. Stu Ash(inet with council to ask that he be elven permission to hook into a new \mer lute that will be used to service the ork; hu111111g. The water line will run from ih' Community ('entre to the new works building. Mr. Asher said that he lived behind the area where the works building is to be con- structed. He suggested that the new water service could also serve his private use. Councillor Pat Muratori said that the re- quest could not be considered by council. In reference to the recent decision that saw Mr. Mackie's proposal denied, she noted, "We're not selling water. We can't turn down one person, then accept the next one." Mr. Asher suggested that his proposal dif- fered from Mr. Mackie's in that the water line could adequately serve his needs as it was purposely being expanded for the works building;. He noted, "If it's a new water system, couldn't it be investigated to determine if others could hook into it?" Mr.• Mackie, also sitting ,in the audience, attempted to interject comments, but was told by Reeve Dave Johnston that the coun- cil meeting format did not allow such discussion from the floor. He said that Mr. Mackie would have ..to wait until the 10 minute open public period before he could voice his opinions. A heated exchange of words between the reeve and Mr. Mackie ensued. Councillor Cliff Freeman suggested that the water issue could not be settled without full council discussion. 'Councillors Jim Quick and Helen Owen were not present at the meeting I. Ile requested deferral on the issue until full council discussion could be held. This islet council's favor, however Councillor Muratori in reluctantly agreeing to further study, noted, "I think you're being unfair here tonight."

(David Emslie photo) A LETTER FROM DORIS Doris MacDougall will be By Doris Hunter BAYFIELD - The village was shocked and grieved to hear of the sudden death of Doris MacDougall, so soon after the loss of her beloved husband, Harvey. A memorial ser- vice was held at St. Andrew's United Church on Sunday afternoon. A talented artist, many Bayfielders will cherish the paintings they own of her work. She was generous in sharing her knowledge and love of the beauties of nature. A group of friends were privileged to have lessonsin painting with her, and enjoy- ed it very much. We have lost another fine member of our community. Rev. Douglas Pitts has been so busy ac- ting as Interim Priest at St. George's Anglican Church in Goderich, his Bayfield friends have hardly seen him over the past four and a half months, to our regret. There is a new Rector at St. George's now, but the congregation has asked him to become honorary assistant, a sure sign of the affec- tion he has earned while serving with then). Congratulation to St. George's. 'Maude Sturgeon, Eddie's widow, celebrated her 94th birthday this week at ('lan Gregor Apartments. Her rooms must have been a veritable bower, as among her gifts were 94 carnations. The Bayfield Garden Club, had a most in- teresting speaker at their regular meeting, the second Monday of each month. Rev. George Youmatoff introduced John Gillet and his wife, Mary, as two people, good friends of Bayfield. John is Studio Director of Channel 10 Television Studio and his wife is in charge of community news at that station. He played cricket with the Channel 10 team here and also comes as a member of the Morris Dancers, who have often danced here. His great p; . ion however, is the cultiva- tn of rose 'The beautiful shades he show- er :s a rr-. minary to his address, certainly gave evidence of the fact, that he is also a professional photographer. He is regional director of the Canadian Rose Society, and was well qualified to give very practical ad- vice on the care and feeding of his favorite flower. Members were interested in his explana- tion of the Master Gardener's Course, the first phase of which he has completed. An autumn tip was to cover the rose roots to a depth of 18 inches of soil, to stop the cycle of freezing and thawing. The dirt is to be removed in April. Rev. Ray Holley expressed thanks of those present for a most informative and en- joyable evening. The next meeting will be on Thanksgiving Monday evening, when members bring their surplus plants to be auctioned. You don't have to be a member to attend, and it is great fun. LACAC is also planning for Thanksgiving weekend. A motoring event will be the historical and geographical treasure hunt. The course has been well planned, the organizers learning quite a bit about ter- ritory they thought they knew all about. Should be lots of fun, $10 a family car, star- ting at 9 am. from the fair grounds on Oc- tober 10. Charles and Lulu Scotchmer presented a cross for the Communion Table of St. An- drew's United Church to commemorate their 55th wedding anniversary, celebrated earlier this year. Lulu's charming wedding dress was much admired at the Lioness fashion show this summer. Rev. Gordon Kurtz will be taking the ser- vice at St. .ndrew's this Sunday. On September S8 at 8 pm the Bayfield Historical Socio..,' will have as speaker of the evening Ian Wilson, Provincial Archivist for Ontario. lie can dispel any concepts you might have that history is dull, as he shares his enthusiasn for the fine collection Ontario has in the archives under his care. The Huron County Historical Society has been invited to join the Bayfield group, and all members are urged not to miss the op- portunity portunity to hear this most interesting man. The Society warmly welcomes new members and visitors at any time, but par- ticularly now at the opening of the fall season. Rae Fraser, programme convenor, has an excellent roster of speakers and a bus tour in store for the autumn. September 27 the Harvest Thanksgiving Service, traditional in the Anglican Church long before the Pilgrim Fathers, will be celebrated at Trinity this Sunday. also the fall nature walk is planned with their sister Church, St. James Middleton.

Serena was given in marriage by her father and looked lovely in the nylon and cotton . organza wedding dress of her mother. She carried a bouquet of soft yellow roses. Deb Johnston was matron of honor and Lorne Taylor, brother-in-law of the groom, was best man. The groom's niece, 'Toni Gale, was dressed in an orchid shaded dress, matching the matron .of honor's and the attendants, Lisa Telford, in robin's egg green, Dale Evans in sky blue, and Kim Snell, sister of the groom, in. peach with Chanda Chilton, younger sister of the bride wearing pink, presented a rainbow preview of the beautiful one which appeared in the sky after the wedding. The bride's mother, Joyce, chose a gown of periwinkle blue and Carolyn Snell had a dress in cranberry color. Serena was happy to have her paternal grandparents at the ceremony and Bob's grandmother Snell was in attendance as well. The bridal music was provided by Jim and Marion Snell of Seaforth. Ushers at the church were Rob Boyes, Wes Gozzard, Dave Johnston and DanEvans, all friends of the groom.` A reception and dinner were held after the ceremony at the Stanley Township complex with 350 guests enjoying the party. Pat Graham who has been a very long time and close friend of the families was Master of Ceremonies and Reuben Weltc, cousin of the bride, from Waterloo, proposed the toast to the bride. Surely a fine start in married life for this young couple who have grown up in Bayfield and found romance along the way . They are honeymooning in Muskoka and on their return will live in the house next io the Anglican Church known for so many years as the Bill Parkers home. Serena was given several shower,' by friends and relatives, so she will have a lovely time displaying them in this very pleasant house. The meanest person around is the one who came during the night, while 1 was in Toron- to for a funeral, and stole all the fine wood the village had left for ply use. when they cut down one of the grand old maples on the edge of my property.
