off into one of the pre sent drains.
Councillor Daly explained the
Working of a. sewer system lie rela-
tion.to the present drains. The sew-
er would be deep enough to receive
all cellar drains, roof drains and
kitchen .drains as well es toilet
drains. The present drains on the
streets could be returned to their •er-
iginaf use of handling surface water
only, Mr. Daly said that the esti-
l' atecl cast of putting a sewer pipe
on 'Goderich street and road repairs
.+ftelwards was $50,000,
Reeve Sills said he thought the
idea of putting down a sewer ipipe
on Goderich street was all "bosh".
Ile thought the investment was too
large to "bury in the ground".
"If you put • down a sewer it will
have to have drainage or it will fill
up with silt," said the Reeve.
Councillor Daly read the figures
of the estimate of a sewer system
for the whole town. The sewers
$315,000, disposal plant $160,000
and private drain connections $67,-
000, making a total of $542,500.
The Mayor; "I think everybody is
against sewage at the present time,
Engineer Ross asked If council
could decide about widening Goder-
ich street. Councillors agreed, no
widening.
There was discussion about park-
ing on Goderich street. Town Clerk
Wilson said that the 'town's agree -
meat with the departmentmade
the town responsible for drainage
and parking. If a provincial plow hit
a car on Goderich street the town
would be responsible for the dam-
ages.
Councillor Daly explained the map
showing the plans for the sewage
system to council, and the plans for
'the disposal plant which would be
located on the flats in the south
part of the town. There was only one
part of the town, in the northwest,
which would need a pumping station
if it became populated. The rest of
the sewage system would have na-
tural drainage.
The disposal system would be
large enough to take care of the
whole area of the town if eventually
it were fully populated, and is de-
signed so that the addition of more
units Will be a very simple matter:
• The report also gives estimated costs
on a frontage basis, both per year
and total cost.
The capacity of the disposal plant
is based on the use of 50 gallons
of water daily by every resident in
town.
The Mayor then called for commit-
tee reports. Councillor Crich said
the new fire alarm boxes had not
conte in yet. An investigation was
being carried on about the title to
the truck which damaged electric
lines here in the summer.damages of
Council agreed to pay g
$10.55 to W. R. Somerville in con-
nection with a collision on Aug. 12.
A grant of 5400 was made to the
fire brigade, also the fire chief's
salary and tax rebate to the mem-
bers.
Council designated Friday, Dec.
26, as boxing day.
Councillors suggested that mem-
bers of the Chamber of Commerce
take a .petition around Egmondville
and explain the advantages of Eg-
moncl ille joining up with Seaforth,
A building permit was granted
Lester C. Leonhardt to build a gar-
age. Permission was granted the
Hospital Auxiliary to hold a turkey
raffle.
McConnell & Hays reported that
they had completed the steps neces-
sary to closing all streets on the new
public school property and the deed
would be turned over to the board.

a taxi license was granted.
Applications for the position of
assessor were received from C. M,
Smith and Jack Thompson. This was
laid overr for next year's
council.
Councillor Sharpe explained the
working of a zoning bylaw as recom-
mended by a planning and develop-
ment meeting held recently at Wing -
ham. Councillor Sillery said a zon-
ing bylaw at Mitchell had been the
cause of a dispute.
Reeve.Sills suggested that council-
lors should be elected for terms up
to three years. Councillor Close
asked if council could pass such a
bylaw, or would people have to vote
on it.
Councillor Christie said that the
main streets in Palmerston and List-
owel • were decorated for Christmas
and he wondered if something simi-
lar could not be done in Seaforth.
Mayor McMaster said that the P. U.
C. was already making plans for de-
corations starting with the town
hall; lights might be run from one
standard to another.
Fire Chief •John Scott gave his re-
port for the year. Fire damage in
town had been between $5066 and
$6000. He did not know what the
damage had been in 1,.irai He
complained that osk after the
rural fire true: had hear, left

for members. Councillor frier said
the fire chief should be appointed
for five years. He said the men got
$13 apiece and $7 for each man goes
into the "pot". If there is a little
over it is divided up; this year there
was 55 extra.
Councillor Close thought it would
be a good idea to hire the men and
if they did not do their work to fire
them,
Mayor McMaster proposed a vote
of thanks to Fire Chief Scott, who
thanked council.
Reeve Sills; `Another feature of
this is that civil defense rests on
the fire brigades."
The Mayor: "Has the warden's
committee 1(of the county council)
done anything on civil defense?"
Reeve Sills; "Mr. Sheardown. of
Goderich will give you a talk any
time you ask him. He. has attended
civil defense schoels," •

by Mr. Ernest Whitehouse and the
following address was read by Mr.
James Drummond:
"Dear Helen and Ken, It was in
the summer of 61, Audrey said to
Ken, 'Let's have some fun, take Me
to Bayfield to do some jive, it's my
turn anyway to drive.' So Ken took
the gals to the dance and gave therm
all a thoughtful glance, Helen Love
was one of the gang, at the sight of
her Ken's heart •went bang. Ken
thought, she is the girl for Ole, but
what can I do with the other three?
On July 29 Ken made bold; takes
her to the show so I am told, that is
how it all started and Kenneth nev-
er was faint hearted. The next date,
gracious sakes alive was Oct. 25.
Now on concession 10 life is a dream
and no longer Ken breaks roads
back to Hillsgreen. Good wishes to
you here tonight. We hope that you
.may never fight, that troubles ne'er
will dark your door, that Helen al-
ways scrubs the floor. This little gift
may help us say: best wishes to you
every day."
Ken made a fitting reply and all
sang For They Are Jolly Good Fel,

Christmas is just around the cor-
ner. The daily newspapers and radio
commercials have evolved quite a
system to remind us that such is the
case. At the time of writing I am
assured there are only thirteen
shopping days left before Christ-
mas. If the advertisers are really on
their toes' their commercials also
tell ane the exact number of hours
and minutes remaining until the
shops close for the holiday.
We can .be assured that no twist
will be neglected in order to remind
us that:
"Christmas is Were, the goose is get-
ting fat,
Please put a penny in the old man's
hat."
That, of course, was before the
days of inflation and the rising cost
of living. Perhaps some brave soul
will revise this gem and make the
penny a ten -dollar bill. '

aidedthe birth of the Prince of
Peace, is a bit flat for them. •
Whatever you do, don't give way
to cynicism. The Cluistmas story is
not a mockery. The Prince of Peace
did come to a weary world centuries
ago. He has entered weary, disillu-
sioned, tortured hearts ever since
with a "Peace which passes all under-
standing." He has been denied a
way into the Councils of the world
because roan has a cankerous disease
called selfishness. This is not any
reason for despair. The ideal of a
world at peace may be a lofty and
distant one, but let us keep it con-
stantly before us.
It is lonely in Korea for the men
in khaki and •blue. Sniper's Ridge is
a far cry from roast goose at the
family table or even mock -duck in
the mess -hall. Christmas Day with
all its cherished memories of the
past and fond hopes for the future
must surely weigh heavily in their
hearts.
Let us not be selfish this Christ-
mas. There is a Church within reach
of every living soul in Canada. If
we do not find time to enter one, to
remember the world and our men in
Korea before the Prince of Peace,
then it is selfishness, not lack of
opportunity, that keeps us away.
Moreover, if we are too selfish to
use those things for which our men
in let us not
fighting n
al dying,
marvel that we have a mock -peace.
Every man must work with God for
peace. If we all make a special ef-
fort we shall enjoy `goose,' not just
'mock -duck.' uck.' •

brief to the Prince Minister »of Ont-
