DID YOU KNOW THAT .SKUNKS
like bees, and that bee stings have
moo effect whatever on the furry nuis-
antes.? . . The other evening, Alex
Cudmrore, chairman of Clinton Pmb15•e
School Board, discovered a skunk xn
the act of making short work of some
of .his appary bees ... He called :Mer-
vyn Batkin and: the ]atter despatched
the intruder wih a well -aimed shot .. .
Rem's' the method Mr. Skunk was
using . He would knock on the
funnel of .the bee hive; a bee would
emerge .. , And presto, it would chs -
appear inside Mr. S's open mouth .. .
But this pertieular'skunk has smelled
Dais last .. .

Fgldaw•ing considerable discussion,
Clinton Town Council Monday even-
ing made a grant of $400 to Clinton
Citizens' Band. Mayor A. d.. McMur-
•
ray presided and all members were
present.
Athough the sum of one m111.
($1,026) had been provided for in the
estimates brought dawn earlier in
the year, it was pointed out that
council was raider no compulsion o
grant the entire one mill but could
act as it saw fit. The upshot was.
$400, and .nothing was decided whe-
ther or not this wolld be supple-
mented at a later date.
Iii the dismission, town clerk M. le
Curless said a verbal request had
been made for $400 and ,he had a
cheque ready to be signed. The .Mayor
said he thought the ,natter' should
conte before eauncil before the cheque
was tissued, The clerk then read the.
bylaw passed earlier in the year.
Ald. 112. J. Agnew recalled the rea-
son for •the passing of the by-law
and its reference to the -people be a
plebiscite, as otherwise, a grant
would be illegal. He said that Council
could grant up to one mill but may
give any portion of it, and didn't have
to pay it if it didn't want to. He
asked if the Band had honestly lived
ne to its agreement with Cornell and
alleged that the Legion and Turf Club'
bad been asked more than they should
have been. The largest grant ever'
given previously was $500. He point-
ed out that the Tattoo had been
takeu out of town and the Band had
solicited donations from the mer-
chants. He thought $400 ample.
A.ld, Mel Crich said he had listened
to the Band and believed the leader
was doing a good job and bringing on
younger players. "My humble opinion
i3 that the .people of this town want
us to support this band, perhaps not
up to the full mil)," he stated. "I
knew we have a good band."
The Mlayor said he didn't think
any member of Council didn't 'favour
supporting the Band, but he would
not sign the +cheque until Council had
discussed it.
Reeve V. D. Falconer said the band.
master had canvassed the buisine.cs
men and then had taken the tattoo
to he Radar ,Schoolll. If .the 'Band
needed this money, then Count!
should Iive up to the agreement, but

Council, in a nice way, had more or
Fess told them to go ahead. Council
had to carry the Band along, but
there should be a financiai statement.
