Conncrllor Hab'kirk . said the
'road to the dump and the dump
was in awful shape. Tracks drop
off stuff all along the way.
"They are hauling in refuse
from Egmondville," said Mr.
Habkirk, . "The Tuckersmith

- IHC said the town .men had
caught an outside truck in bhe
dump and had locked the gate.
After dumping this load the
trucker drove to the gate ;and
was observed taking a key and
unlocking the gate. Councillors
said that dozens of duplicates
had been made of the key to
the town dump: •
(Councillors said that the hy-
dro
ydro had been dumping limbs
,there but that they bad after-
wards burned 'them all.
Councillor H'albkilec said the
town had realized$254 from ,the
sale of parts from the two old
graders and had saved 'all parts
that could be used on the cur-
rent
urrent grader.
Sam (McDonald of Clinton,.
and Joe Large, an engineer
from Toronto, representing :the
Canadian 'Oil Companies, 'dis-
cussed with council their plans
for the new gas station to 'be
erected on the former Walsh
property. They proposed to cov-
er the existing sidewalks on
Goderich street and repave over
the fill with asphalt. The side -
walla will 'be .marked in white.
The grade will be raised about
a foot, The ditch abutting the
lot on Coleman street will -.be
filled in and an entrance con-
structed there. (Council was ag-
reeable.
Mr. McDonald told council
that he would be glad if some-
one had a lot to which the house
could 'be moved, it was • really
two houses. He said the house
was being turned over to the
building contractors,, and they
would tear it down if it was
not moved.
Mayor McMaster said council
should decide en action concern-
ing the option the town held on
nearly 30 acres of land owned
by C, Dalton. The option is for
$115 an acre, Council decided
to see if the option could be re-
newed until December. The
mayor said it was necessary to
have a vote of the ratepayers
before the town could purchase
the land. 'Subsequent sale of the
land if bought by the town
would 'have to be approved by
the municipal board and the
price would have to be adjusted
so that there would be no prof-
it to the town as it was not in
the real estate .business. The
mayor said that if the ratepay-
ers did not approve purchase of
the land local 'business men
would buy it. He said that land
in Harpurhey had been sold to
the tile plant at $300 an acre
recently.
Council approved a resolution
for daylight saving.
Town /Clerk Wilson told coun-
cil he was preparing 'bills for
users of the sewer along 'Main
street and there were a number.
of points he was not sure about.
There was discussion whether
the owner or tenant should 'be
billed where apartments or
stores were rented. Council
went over individual properties.
The Royal apartments has sev-
eral stores and 11 apartments
mostly occupied by one person.
and two water meters. Some of
the apartments are vacant at
times, it was said.
Councillor Dr. Turnbull said
that Simcoe puts charges for
both water and sewer on the
same bill and sends it to who-
ever pays the water bill, wheth-
er he is owner or tenant.
After some discussion council
decided that the bills for %ewer
service should be sent to who-
ever paid the water 'bills. This
would not relieve the owner of
his primary responsibility for
the sewer rates. These 'bills are
for 1956 and in the ease of ten-
ants who have moved away the
owner will be responsible. 'It is
expected the bills will go out
very soon.
Reeve Scoins suggested that
the town have a tax sale. 'Coun-
cil went over the list of taxes
three years or more in arrears
which would be in the sale. The
reeve thought that the town
:should have a tax sale every
year so people would know that
If taxes were three years over-
due the property would be ,put.
up at tax sale. 'Council passed a
motion that the town immediate-
ly start on a sale, and the may-
or authorized to sign the war-
rant. Owners will have to be
notified, titles searched by the
lawyer, and mortgagees noti-
fied. It will also have to be ad
vertised. Altogether it will be
six to eight months 'before the
sale can be held.
Councillor 'Ball asked about
cutting the grass at the park.
Councillor Kellar suggested that•
the town buy a rotary mower.
He said the ground was too
rough for a reel mower. The.
town men could do the cutting.

Carl Hewitt Killed
At Stratford
'Referring to the death of
Carl Hewitt, the,Stratford Bea-
con Herald says:
Felleiq-employees and : city
firemen battled for six 'hours lin
a vain attempt to save the life
of 29 -year-old Carl Hewitt of.
126 Downie St., electrocuted en
Thursday afternoon when a
"dead" line • contacted, a 2,200.
volt primary ,("live") wire.
Hewitt remained conscious
for a brief period, after' receiv-
ing the charge, continued
'breathing heavily; )for five \ ort'
six minutes and then lapsed, in-'
to a coma, which con'tin'ued um
til he was pronounced dead.aft
er six hours of artificial -respir-
ation.
An employee of the 'Stratford'
Public 'Utility Commission foo
two years and a former HEPC
employee, he was reeling im the
"dead" line during a wire
change -over program on Water
loo St. when the "live" contact
was transmitted through the
line shortly after 2 pm. -
Fellow -crewman 'Eric Daub
of 11'8 Well St. started immedi-
ate resuscitation, and a 15 -man
squad of PUC employees, aided
by Stratford firemen, continued
artificial ,respiration until doct-
ors pronounced him dead.
For four hours, the crew
worked steadily at the intersec-
tion of Waterloo and 'Co'bourg
Sts., where 'Hewitt had been
working. They continued with
out ceasing through a transfer
to the Stratford General Hos-
pital at 6 p.m.
The same group continued
their attempts gat revival for an-
other two-hour period at the
hospital.
The voltage that passed
through his body was the same
as that used in an electric chair
Mr•. Daub said that Mr. (Hew
itt was working on the ground.
operating a'reel on a commis
mission truck and making cuts
in the wire for splicing, at the
time the accident happened,
Mr. Daub, who had been
working' beside the victim m the
same view, said that Mr. Hewitt
"dropped when 'the charge hit
him and 'clutched his stomach.
He said 'Let me lie still.'
"I rolled him over and 'ixn
mediately started artificial res-
piration,' 14Ir. Daub said. 'He
was breathing heavily for about
five or six minutes after that.'
It was understood precau
tions had been taken to cover
bare spots on "live" wires while
the changeover was progressing
but that apparently the lines
touched at a place contact could
be made.
A doctor and ambulance were
called by Miss Rose McQueen,
42 'Waterloo St. S., outside
whose home the accident hap-
pened. Miss McQueen kept
workers supplied with hot water
for their •attempts to save the
PUC lineman.
Members of the PUC at a re
guiar meeting Thursday night
expressed their praise for the
action, of PUC employees, city
firemen, and Crews from the
m
Bell Telephone Company pant'
and
Hydro who responded to an ap-
peal for aid in giving artificial
respiration.
No final decision has yet been
made on whether an inquest
should be held. 'Coroner is Dr
David Gemmell.
Mr. Hewitt was born in Exet
er and came to Stratford two
years ago. Previous to that he
was a construction worker and
Hydro employee in the Exeter
district.
He is the son of Mrs. Priscilla
Hewitt, Exeter, and the late Mr.
Hewitt. Surviving are his wife,
the former Loretta Maloney of
Seaforth, to whom he was mar-
ried at Seaforth in 1955, and
one son, Tommy, two months
old.
Also surviving are two broth-
ers and two sisters, Lloyd Hew-
itt of London, Mrs. Wm. French
(Marion) of Toronto, Mrs. Roy

11 Hockey Hapn's
By 5111 Teall
Well our season came to a
ery abrupt ending on Thurs
day last in St. Marys. S gues
plans are made to Ibe broken
and our plans which we felt.
were so Certain of success with
the financial end of our team,
again were not successful. Had
we had three or four :more
playoff gates we would have
cleared all our financial obliga-
tions.
We feel the boys gave their
very 'best, but all the breaks
were against them and in any
sport you must have a few
breaks to win. I must say here.
I have never worked with a
nicer group of iboys and 'I can
tell you they are terribly dis-
appointed at losing the series.
Well we now must continue
with our plans to complete our
obligations to all the boys who
have played hockey this season
under the Seaforth Athletic
Association. This includes. not
only Jr's but Juvenile, Midget
and Bantam players.
Our plans which of course all
depend on your continued sup-
port are first to arrange a
sports night 'banquet at which
we are planning on having a
couple of well known hockey
players or managers as speak-
ers. We are planning on giving
the Jr.'s jackets at 'this time. To
finance this program tickets will
be sold at f'5,QQ each, Ladies
will be welcomed. Each boy on
a minor team will be given one
ticket to sell either to his par-
ents or some sport -minded per-
son. The person buying this
ticket will be responsible for
the boy he purchases the ticket.
from and .must bring him to the
dinner, be seated with him and
see he arrives home after the
dinner. To snake ,this plan a
success we must sell many ex
tra tickets and these will be
available at Baldwin Hardware,
Keating Drug Store and Sea -
forth Motors. It will be impos-
sible for us to contact all our
sports -minded friends so please
pick up your tidkets and help
make this banquet a success for
the boys.
We have been told by many
that as soon as hockey is finish-
ed everyone will forget us. I
cannot believe this, but the
above plan will certainly show
whether you are •interested in
helping us end the season suc-
cessfully and whether you want
us to plan for a bigger and 'bet-
ter season next year.
All accounts outstanding' must
be forwarded to Jim Murray at
once that we may know exactly
what our financial position is
and make plans to clear these
as soon as possible.

only a small 'percentage of the
cost price of a manufactured
'product and the farmer's in-

the selling price for his product.
As the farmer pays dearly for
the product. of labour and the.
labour pays dearly for the -farm-
er's. product, they both blame
the Other for the high cost. This
causes differences between the
two. The farmer and labourer
should get together and try to
have a 'better understanding
about each other. They phou:ld
