TOWN COUNCIL
Continued from page 1
parking signs.
Councillor Christie said he
had received two complaints
from Goderich street residents
about the` 'unsightly no -parking
signs. It is being taken up with
the P.U.C. to see if the ' signs
can be put on' the light stand-
ards. The signs would be smal-
lerand only about !half as many
are necessary. Certain highway
regulations !govern .signs, which
must be at an• -angle to ' ap-
proaching traffic.
Getting rid of the •old grad-
ers is a problem facing the
streets and property commit-
tees.
Art 'Bushie had asked if his
time off from sickness could be
in lieu of annual holiday. Coun-
cil -agreed, Also that A. Miller
be paid 51 an !hour for tempor-
ary -.extra work:
lOonncil will send out sewer-
age bills themselves. P.U.C. had
seemed reluctant !about it. Bills
have never been sent out though
the disposal plant has been oper-
ating since late 1954. Council
proposes to bill property own-
ers for 1956. Council decided it
would. not be practical to bill in-
dividual tenants in apartments,
someapartments are on individ-
ual water meters, others have
one meter for.•the ibuiiding. Con-
stant ,Changing of tenants would
also be ('problem. The minimum
rate is $10, or equal to what-
ever water rates are ,up to a
maximum of $100. Council
would need access to the PUC
water accountsto make out 'the
bills.
An official from the Dept. of
Health had inspected the dispo-
sal 'plant and recommended the
large tank be cleaned out, to al-
low a skimmer to be removed
that has been lying at the bot-
tom and could not be recovered,
At the same time the inside of
the tank could be sealed to pre-
vent leaking into basement. A
sludge ,pump would be needed.
Councillor Jack Kellar, fire
and water committee chairman,
reported that large fire alarm
gong is to be (placed outside at
the southwest corner of town
hall. Councillor J. Turnbull
asked what will be done about
the emergency fire bell. (Reeve
Scoins revealed ` that firemen
had passed a (motion whereby
firemen will be notified !by tele-
phone, making an. alarm almost
unnecessary. Four men are now
notified by telephone and each
would notify three others, ac-
cording to his plan.
Permission was granted the
Farmers Union to use a room
one night a month free of
charge,
A steel door will be ordered
for new vault:
The mayor and assessor
Southgate were re -appointed to
the Mid -Western Industrial As-
sociation Zone 1.
Mayor !McMaster said two
new flags should be ordered for
the new council • chamber, He
also had been impressed with
the plaque in Clinton town hall
with their town crest and
thought Seaforth should have
one too. A ,plaque with the
names of former mayors will
also be looked into.
Councillor Christie remarked
that 'council 'had never unveiled
the ,plaque to council
at the
sewage disposal plant. Council-
lor lKsllar thought the money
would be better spent on a ven-
tilating system for the new
council chamber.
The grant to the Salvation
Army hostel at London was in-
creased to $50 from $40. Mayor
McMaster said they are doing a
worthwhile work.
Scott Memorial Hospital ask-
ed for annual membership fee
of $25.
The annual bylaw was passed
for borrowing up to 470,000.
Rate of .interest this year is
514 %. Bylaw was also passed
under the !Highway Smprove-
ment Act for 1957 expenditure
on roads and streets in Seaforth
of 1$10,000. This is $1,000 more
than authorized last year.
The list of tax arrears is be-
ing compiled and will be
brought up at next meeting.

McKILLOP
S. S. INo. 2 Farm Forum was
held at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Thos. McMillan. The dis-
cussion was very good. We
think consumer demand has
some effect on prices. We be-
lieve advertising is good if it is
honest.. Most important to buy-
ing is (a) ,prices, I(ib) quality,
(c) self service. !Some 'brands
may be of some value to the
buyer. 'Prize winners for the
evening were as follows. Most
games, Miss Eileen Dolmage,
Mr. •Sam McClure; lone hands,
Mrs. Secord McBrien, Mr. Se -
cord Mi Brien; consolation, Mrs.
Stewart Dolmage, Mr. James
Palin. The next meeting will be
at ,home of Mr. and' Mrs. R. E.
McMillan,

fancy cookies which attract the
eye of the foolish buyer who can
least afford them. The good
buyerconsiders food values and
is more likely to buy 'a cheap
cut of meat which is just as pa-
latable when properly cooked as
the . most expensive cuts. Val-
ues ''have a different meaning
from prices: the brand, the
grade, built in services such as
precooking, Other additional
factors. are nutritional values,
flavor, size of package and 'ap-
:pearance. Lowest priced foods
are not necessarily the cneap-
est. Cellophane wrappers pre-
vent foods and vegetables being
injured by many people hand-
ling them and also help retain
flavor and food value, Men do
not like the self-service stores.

FIRESIDE FARM FORUM
Seventeen adults of the Fire-
side Farm Forum filet at the
hone of Mr. and .Mrs. Robert
Jamieson on Monday evening to
dicsuss the topic: 'Does the
housewife put the price tag 'on?
We believe improved methods
of • packaging, advertising and
merchandising will increase the
consumption of goods. The mem-
bers in our forum list the fol-
lowing . factors which influence
food purchasing. People with
large families who have ' salt -
able storage space ,prefer buy-
ing supplies in large quantities
while the town family with smal-
ler, families desire small pack-
ages. 'We think butter should be
sold in half pound prints to
those wishing it. Fancy wrap-
ping of fruits out of season,
