To Act On
Two Petitions
The September meeting of the
Goderich Township Council was
held in Holmesville on September
12 with all members present.
A petition from a number of
ratepayers to have a road opened,
or steps built at the end of the
Cut -Line, so that the Public might
have access to the lake front, was
received. Council decided, to build
a road in preference to steps, and
to have it perpared in time for
next sununer's seasons.

. swimming in the indoor swim-
ming pool ... investigating a sect-
ion of the front yard where we
were sure monkeys must once
have been caged ... and then
having tea in the most sumptuous
of large dining rooms with long
table, patio, and all that...
A petition was also presented
from a number of people to be,
transferred from polling subdiv-
ision 5 to polling sub -division 6,
due to the shorter distan.oe that
these people would have to travel
to vote. Council concurred with
the petition and decided to take
necessary steps to change the
boundary. Another requested a
change of one farm from school
section 3 to school section No. 2.
Council agreed to the change, pro-
vided that the school boards were
agreeable.

ANOTHER HIGH SPOT IN THE
entertainment was a + cruise up
Howe's Sound ... (it was suppos-
ed to be moonlight but Vancou-
ver's liquid sunshine kept even
the most daring of us indoors)...
Their was dancing to a six piece
orchestra... bingo for the old and
,young, with marvellous prizes ...
coffee and doughnuts at the end
of the trip... singsongs around
the piano... and all of the ladies
were' decked out with leis of real
orchids flown to the city espec-
ially all the way from Honolulu.. .

of a plain ordinary white duck up-
ending itself in a shallow lagoon,
though) ... We drove over -,Lulu
Island, ate -seafood at the IIouse
of Neptune ("Where the salmon
leaps from the Fraser into the
frying pan") at New Westminster,
windowshopped in all of the big
stores (a five percent provincial
hospital insurance tax on all pur-
chases is rather a deterrent)...
Order 100 Calves
For Hensall Club
Hensall Feeder Calf Club,
backed by the South Huron Agri-
cultural Society, will again offer
100 calves to ;boys and girls in
this district to compete in the
annual feeding contest.
Meeting Tuesday night, the ex-
ecutive of the club decided to
maintain its membership at the
record high of 100 which it
reached last year. The calves will
be ordered from the west to ar-
rive sometime in October.
Boys and girls in Usborne,
Stephen, Hay, Tuckersmith and
Stanley townships are eligible to
join the club. Members feed their
calves over the winter, then
show them at I-Iensall Spring
Fair in May. They are sold at a
special auction the afternoon of
the fair.
Covers Debenture
(By our Hensel! Correspondent)
At a special meeting of Hensel]
Community Organizations it was
disclosed that $2,350.00 had been
cleared on the Cadet Model Vac-
ation Trailer raffled at the Hen-
sall Bean Festival on Labour Day.
The trailer was donated by a
Hensel]. firm to help Hensall
Council to pay their debenture on
the artificial ice installed in the
arena. Reeve Wm. Parke stated
that this amount will cover their
1956 Debenture.
Canada's greatest
SHIRT VALUE!

ON THE. RETURN JOURNEY
we were able to find time to
thoroughly digest Fred Sloman s
latest short story in MacLean's
magazine ... Really enjoyed it
And we walked the streets of
Fred's winter home town of Cap-
reol, also ..
Need No Outlay
Boys and girls require no in-
vestment for their calves—the
Society carries them until the
spring sale when the purchase
price is deducted from the re-
ceipts of the auction.
Jack Kinsman, of Cromarty, is
president of the club; Jim Mc-
Gregor, Kippen, is secretary -trea-
surer, There are directors from
each of the townships.
Any boys or girls wishing to
secure calves should contact their
township director immediately.
Among the officials who at-
tended Tuesday night's meeting
were Huron Ag. Rep. G, W. Mont-
gomery; R. D. Etherington, or-
iginator of the club scheme; and
Society executive members Stan
Jackson, Earl Dick and Bob Mac-
Gregor. '
The next meeting of council
will be held on Monday, October 3
