Presentation By
C. W. L. Members
Tie members of Seaforth C.
W. L. met at the !home of Mrs.
[Dorothy Rowland, on Wednes-
day night, on the eve of her de-
parture from [Seaforth. A social
evening was spent during which
the guest of honor was present-
ed with a lovely [cup and saucer
by Mrs. Mike Williams, and an
address read by Mrs. Maurice
Etue. A sumptuous lunch was
served .by the executive. In a
few well 'chosen words, Mrs,
Rowland bhamked .the ladies for
,their gift and good wishes. Mrs,
Rowland will move soon to Kit-
chane'.
Seaforth Rate Rises
To 84 Mills
Seaforbh's tax rate skyrocket-
ed five shills to another all time
high of 84.1 mills for public
school ratepayers and 77.4 for
separate school,' when the 1956
rate was struck on Monday
night.
These rates were( struck at
the regular August meeting with
all members [present and Mayor
MdM'aster presiding.
The increase is due to sewer
rate aborting this year, higher
county, high school and general
rate. Down slightly were the li-
brary and public school rates.
Council found themselves
haunted by deficits ,from past
enterprises, while embarking or
trying to embark on new vent-
ures.
A request from the hockey
club for help on their deficit of
$2,59'4.93 'was presented by
John Langstaff. Council deft it
over till next meeting hoping
someone might think up a way
to raise [the money.
.4 previous request tram the
arena'commission for help on a
$4500 deficit also occupied
council's attention.' A [debenture
issue is being considered to take
care of :this deficit.
Mayor McMaster read letters
re sewer extension from the en-
gineer and Municipal Board.
Also town should return the de-
posit cheque to Mr, [,avis im-
mediately, he said,
The work should start now,
or will cost the town an extra
$20,000, the mayor said, es the
contractors have said their ten-
der was too low.
Councillor Jack Kellar thought
the town was well rid of the
tender if that were tree. He re-
called the mess with ,BC Con-
struction, reminding council
town had to may for engineer's
mistakes and make up all losses
to 'contractor. •
"It would be same thing over
again," he said. "The •contraetor
doesn't lose, because taxpayers
have to make it up."
The mayor said hospital is un-
able to go ahead with installing
a modern +laundry until they .get
sewer connection.
;Reeve Scorns countered that
automatic washers use suffici-
ent water to flush present drain,
in fact it would (benefit the
drain.
The mayor agreed that tax
rate next year will probably be
90 mills if we get the sewer,
pay off hockey and arena defi-
cits and go ahead ,with town
hall alterations.
The mayor said a request
could be sent to the Municipal
Board for a hearing to be held
at Seaforth to force the sewer
extension 'without a vote of the
ratepayers. However this would
cause delay and work could not
start this year.
Councillor Kellar thoughtthe
whole town should be done so
everybody could benefit from
the sewer. People are now pay-
ing the sewer tax who may
never get any [benefit, and some
will have to go to expense for
new cesspools too,
"It should be put to a vote
and let the people •decide," he
said. Some on Goderich street
don't want the sewer.
Reeve Scoins said 'there
should be equal rights for
everybody.
Frank Kling was named su-
pervisor to work with property
committee on remodelling town
hall, work to start immediately.
Town's share is estimated at
312,000, but some 'councillors
refer to it as a $40,000 project
before completion.
RIBS FRACTURED Another vote on the 'Goderich
Samuel Cudmore, .84, of Kip- street sewer extension failed to
get the required 75 per cent ani-
jority, Reeve Scoins and (Coun-
cillors !Ohris'tie and Kellar vot-
ed no, with Councillors Leslie,
Scott, Habkirk and 'Close vot-
ing in favor.

Mill street, cost $6,000; and El-
mer Lorene, alterations to store
front, cost $500.

fortlh 4.11 Swine Club and

Legion to Build Hall
On Main Street
Seaforth Branch Cana-
dian
of the Cana
dian Legion intend to build a
Legion hall on the corner of
Main and Huron streets, across
from the Dick house. This was
announced by Legion President,
John Holland to Seaforth coun-
cil on Monday night.
• The Legion is seeking to get
clear title to the corner lots,
Which were granted to them by
the town for this purpose short-
ly after World War II.
Plans for building were tem-
porarily suspended when the
'Legion became associated with
the Memorial Community Centre
and had rooms there.
The executive now have de-
cided to go ahead with a build-
ing of their own. The ground
floor would be an auditorium
with dance Door. The basement
would have a huge kitchen, with
dumb waiter to auditorium, re-
creation room and canteen for
Legion members.
Proposed size of the new hall
is 40' x 80'. [Construction of the
building is indicated tentatively
as cement [block 'construction
with glass block front of pleas-
ing appearance. Parking space
will be provided at the rear.
According to an unconfirmed
report, the former Salvation
Army hall has been considered
as a possibility to be :used /or
part of the new hall. However
officials say there is nothing de-
finite.
Financing of the project is nob
expected to take the form of
public subscription, but might
be by the sale of car raffle
tickets, A Legion gift of $10,-
000 to the community centre
when it was built, included a
$5,000 hall donation trots the
town of Seaforth,
A general meeting of the Le-
gion will be [called ' soon to con-
firm details and final plans.
