A. "real old fashioned" barn raising at the farm of Miss Rose Snowden, Blue Water Highway,
was staged yesterday when upwards of 100 district farmers gathered to lend their muscle and
know-howto the task of "getting her u_n." The familiar cries of "heave-ho" were heard on all
sides as the men bent to the task of raising tall timbersand cross beams which 'will make a new
barn for Miss Snowden. Her old one was burned in an unexplained fire some weeks ago. Mr.
.Martin Wellesley, was in charge of the operation which entailed first the demolition of a barn, the
-transportation if its timbers to the Snowden farm, and itsre-erection •yesterday.

Brucefield's Glad Specialist
Wins Bronze Medal Award
"Violet Charm" a delicately col-
oured mauve gladiolus won a
bronze medal for Mr. and Mrs.
Murray Tyndall, Brucefield, in the
Canadian International Gladiohis
Show last week. The medal is
the trophy awarded the best spike
entered in the "recent introduc-
tion division" of the show, by the
North American Gladious Council.
"Ordinarily," says Mr. Tyndall
modestly, "we don't enter the
competition at this show. We us-
ually just put on a display of our
flowers. This year we didn't have
enough blooms to /put on a good
show, so we decided to enter and
prove to ourselves and everyone
that we could win some prizes."
They certainly did just that,
because the thick pile of prize
ribbons indicate 14 first prizes,
nine seconds arid ten thirds won
by their glade. They also placed
second for points in the Open
Class.
The International Show is spon-
sored by the Toronto District
Gladiolus Society, arid. this year
was held In the Brampton Memor-
ial Arena.

Bayfield Local Rate Raised
One Mill; Means $4Q0 More
The Bayfield trustees meeting
in the village hall last Thursday
evening set the 1955 mill rate for
local purposes at 11 mills. This
is an increase of' one mill over
that' collected last year.
Chairman of the/trustee board
J. M. Stewart, stated that he was
in favour of the increased rate,
Since one extra mill would not be
a great hardship to any of the
ratepayers, and it would give the
board some extra dollars with
which to make much needed -im-
provements in .the village. He
mentioned the need for more
money spent on the park in Clan
Gregor Square, for benches, more
tables, slides for the youngsters,
etc.
Trustee John Parker suggested
that the park should be mowed
every' two weeks throughout the
summer to keep it satisfactory for
picnickers. "Trustee Reg. Francis.
concurred in the raised mill, sug-
gesting that it be used for pro-
moting recreation and the parks
in the: village.
Objection
Trustee John Parker offered
some objection to the increase. He
said that on every' $2,000 assess-
ment, the extra mill would mean
$2 more in taxes, and he remind-
ed the others that the cost of the
school this year would mean high-
er taxes.
The increase of one mill will
mean approximately $400 more
for use on local improvements,
making a total of ,$4,400. In ad-
dition to the local rate the villag-
ers have approximately .11 mills
for county rate, plus publio and
high school rates,
Heated. Diseugsion
A ' rather, heated discussion
opened the meeting, when Parker
disagreed with :the idea of paying
for special calls at 50 cents each
to Constable Little. The total ex-
pense in this matter for the past
three months, was about $15.
Little receives an annuai salary
of $225, and last year had a ear
allowance` of $25. At an earlier
session' this year it was decided.
that the allowance would bere-
placed with leo 50 cents per call,
plus $4 expreeea for each time
Little appeared in court in GodL&..
rich. Parker contended that this
would amount to too much money
altogether and that many of the
calls on the expense sheet were
not special at all, but were part
of the Constable's regular duty.
Upon Little's explanation of
some of the calls, which included'
several investigations of break-ins
and attempted break-ins, it was
moved by Francis, seconded
Stewart, that the amount be paid,
Stop Sign,
A, summer resident, Rrnest
Manness, suggested that a stop
sign 'be placed at the corher of
Howard and Tuyll Streets, in an
effort to slow down traffic at that
point. The board will consult with
the Department of Highways re-
garding this, and probably Tuyll
Street will be left a througll
street, with the stop on Howard.
f Mannessta so inquired about the
rxuto
g a dram along Tuyll,
and was advised that a man had
been appointed to do this work.
Repairs, To Cairn
Trustee Francis reported that
repairs to the cairn light in Clan'
Gregor Square had been authoriz.
ed, and also stated that • within a
week, tile men would be at work
on the ditching.
John Howard, one of the rate-
payers present, warned that some-
thing should be done to stop mot-
orists from driving through the
park, and suggested that a low
fence night be the answer.
New Tool Shed
The trustee board has perches-
ed one of the cottages offered for
sale at Marsvrlie,just south of the
village, for $150 for use as a -teoi
shed. It is to be moved to the
town lot behind the town hall,
and will house the village tractor.
On motion of Francis it was de-
cided that the school board be
asked to meet with the trustees
with regard to arranging for a
right-of-way to the new shed,
across .behind,_the. hall,
Trustee Parker suggested sev-
eral places in the village that
would bemuch improved with ,e
load of gravel, in order to make
cottages more accessible.
The next meeting of the trustee
board is •see for Thursday evening,
September 29 commencing at 8.30,
