Albert Johnson, Toronto, educational secretary, Ontario Temp- erance Federation, addressed teachers and pupils of Clinton Collegiate In- stitute Monday afternoon, illustrat- ing his remarks with a motion picture film entitled, "The Brain Counts." After hearing a full report from the consulting engineers on the pres- ent status of the proposed sewerage system and sewage treatment plant, Clinton Town Council, at its meeting Monday night, passed the following resolution: "That Council secure informa- tion asked in letter from Arm strong, Anderson and Co., and authorize them to proceed With final engineering plans in.aecord- ante with contract agreement." Conn. N. W. Trewartha as1ied if they were not ready to call tenders. Coun. A. J. McMurray suggested ,that the consulting engineer, R. V. Anderson, be . asked to come to Clin- ton and discuss the matter with the Council, contending that he should be on the ground. A motion to this effect was passed. Report of Engineers In their letter, the engineers stated that only 12 per cent of 93 test holes, showed a really bad condition, 'con- trary to local reports. The report was as follows: "In my opinion, the most important consideration is to make certain that you will be able to obtain materials for next year, such as sewer tile and sewage treatment plant equipment. At the present time there is a decided shortage in these items. "The situation will tend to get worse instead of better, due to back- log of work of this kind already ex- istingand anticipated construction. boom beginning in 1946. "Accordingly we recommend that the Town Council place an order for all necessary material, preferably be- fore the end of the present year. We believe that no financial agreements would be necessary to do this, since payment would not be required until after delivery, and you would specify date of delivery as commencing in April 1946, and with dates on various quantities required hereafter xegulete ed to" coincide: "with"the coniatruction schedule, "The labour situation for this type of work, although very acute at the present time, will probably be some- what easier next year and it wood not be so necessary to call for tenders in 1945. In fact, you might get a better price from the labour stand- point tandpoint if tenders are based on 1946 conditions, but you will not get a bet- ter price on material than exists at the present time. "In any ease, in order to call for quotations on material, or to call for tenders for construction, it will be necessary for us to proceed at once with the final construction drawings and specifications. . This will take some little time, between one and two months, at least, so nothing more than months at least, so nothing more can lbe done until the detailed engineering work has been completed. "We assume from the progress made so far, that it is the wish of Council to start construction on the sewerage system and 'sewage treatment plant as early as possible in 1946. We would a.onreciate confirmation from you to this effect and also your authoriza- tion uthorization for us to proceed with the final engineering plans on the basis of ve per cent fee of the total cost of con- struction less the $475 alreadyex- pended for the preliminary report." 0 Ask Fixed Assessment ,Bequest of ,Albert. a Williams, treasurer of Hanover Transport, for fixed assessment of $5,000 on firm's. new building in north end of town, was referred to the TownSolicitor. He Earlier in the afternoon, he addres- promised that ten additional- families sed Grades VII and. VIII in the Public woud be moving to town:. within a School on the same subject. year. Goderich. Township Couple Mark Golden Anniversary A couple who were married in St. Paul's Anglican Church, Clinton, by Rev. Mr. Parks, on November 5, 1895, celebrated their golden wedding an- niversary on Monday. They were Mr. and Mrs. George Laithewaite, widely known and highly esteemed residents of Huron County, who are members of families who pioneered on the Maitland concession of Goderich Township.

Prominent Horticulturist Mr. Laithewaite is known through- out the province as an horticulturist. His farm is a show place in the corn-, munity and is visited by hundreds of tourists yearly. This year his regis- trations number close to 1,000. Here and there on the spacious lawns are interesting figures sculptured by himself in stone or cement of figures representing the pioneer life as his ancestors' knew it. His latest addition is "a pioneer home erected near the, entrance to the farm in which is a' collection of pioneer relics; including musical instruments. Visitors often enjoy an iiripromptu conceit with the latter. Mr. Laithewaite sper.;alizes in fruit growing. Mr. Laithewaite has beenactive in horticultural and . agricultural so- cieties in Goderich, He }s a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. C. I.a}the- waite.

The boys have to wear huge red bows for a week and the girls one gaudy orange stocking and one ,brilliant green one. The program was presented to a record crowd in the auditorium. Miss Barbara. Brown's decorating commit- tee created a suitable "spooky" Hal- lowe'en atmosphere with witches, owls, ghosts, bats, black cats and corn stalks. F. Fingland Jr, presi- dent of the Students' Council, was presided as chairman of the group, chairman. with Rev. F. G. Stotesbury,' Bayfield Bill Freer, Fred Thorndike and treasurer• Bill Palmer, did a hilarious incitation of the Andrews Sisters. They were accompanied at the piano by Marie Glidden. Next came Fourth Form's play -"Cavalcade of War." Four methocis of courtship technique were ably demonstrated by Corona Wen- doi'f, Don Haddy, (for the year 1850); Ardyss Inkley, Bill Hearn, (1890); Jeanne Elliott,. Fred Kirby, (1910) and Doreen Armstrong, Roger Garen, (1945). The ever -popular Fifth iorm.quar- tet consisting of Bill Robinson, Ross Dilling, Bill Murray and Stuart 'Mc- Bride, so pleased the audience with their, "Did you ever get that feelin' in the moonlight," that they sang again, "In the mood." Mary Lane was at the piano for this number. The first issue of the school paper was read by the editor, Mary. Lane. First form girls complete with hair inpigtails, lip-sticked faces, and orange and green stockings, attempt- ed to sing, "Till the and of time," but the noisy amusement of the audience drowned them out. However, they were given a second chance and sang the snappy, "Atchison, Topeka and the Sante Fe." A saxophone -piano duo with . Willy Robinson on the sax and Bill Freel tickling the ivories, enhanced the evening's entertainment. Jeanne .Elliott, ,accompanied . by Ally Lou Thompson vied with Joan Edwards in singing "Along the. Navajo Trail." ".God Save' the King" was sung at the conclusion of the program. The students and theirfriends lingered on todance to amplified. recordings. Lunch was served by Miss Margaret Ballachey's second ._:•form "kitchen crew." The studentsleft the school feeling that this year's Hallowe'en party was one of the best ever.
