All members were present and Mayor B, Daly presided, Council considered a proposi- tion mentioned. by the mayor at the morning meeting to provide morestorage space on Victoria :street on the site of the old elec- 'tr'ic transformer building beside the, water tower, There was lots 'of ,aboiand the building could be built well back teem the street line. Councillors wondered what the shances would be of removing the third floor from the town hall ' and using the material to build the storage building, Councillors said the building would . need no heat. Electric plugs could be put in to keep mo- tors on the vehicles warm. A communication from the fire brigade said the number of mem- bers had been increased to 15 from 12, The present grant was $1000 and they asked for an al- lowance of $100 a Year for each Member, or $1500. The letter was signed by William Wilbee, secre- tary, Reeve Ball said it should be referred to the fire and water t., epmmittee and then to the bud eget Council was sympathetic, - 'Council was told by fire , chief Jack- Scott that there was no con- trol of the fire siren in the fire hall, And fuses for the fire hall were located'in the public utility office, This was very inconven- ient for the firemen when the rest of the building was locked.' On one occasion while washing a truck water had short circuited the siren and they, had had a lot of trouble before it was shut off. Council will look into this. Town Clerk D. H. Wilson told council the department of high- ways was considering a new system for allocating subsidies on street work. The new regula- tions may be .subject to some Changes- before the town budget is ready. Much closer estimates will be required in future than has been the case in the past.. Council approved a suction ap- pointing the Bank of Commerce as .the town bankers. The mayor and clerk were au- thorized to sign a deed for pro- perty on. -Brantford street to be transferred to Ray Squire as a building lot where he will build. a residence. This property came into the town's hands many years ago, for taxes. Price was $50.00. Councillor C. Dalton reported that William Hoegy was ill and had asked to be relieved •of the appointment of- fence viewer. McSpadden was appointed. James Aitcheson is the other fence viewer in town. Councillor Cardno in 'review- ing the town's finances during the past year said the town had bought a tractor during 1960 and the street expenditures had been lower than estimated. It might be said .the town finances had " broken even, which he considered pretty good. There was discus- sion about getting the town bud- get ready in February and strik- lug the rate , in March- The school boards always' hold -us up, re- marked Councillor Cardno, Council went- over the tax sit- uation, Of the total 1960 taxes of 'a x%;000. by Dec.• 31st, 1134,000 had been paid leaving $27,000 in arrears on 1960 taxes. When past due taxes for other years were added the total was. $59,000 in un- paid npaid taxes. Councillors thought there should be stiffer penalties and a tax sale held every pear, Business taxes posed a special problem of collection, Councillor Rivers said he was getting Elliott to clear Main St., Tuesday morning. Mayor Daly suggested making a decision a- bout a snow blower, Councillors agreed a heavy duty blower was needed for the fan to break up the ice on the street. A narrow one was needed for the walks.

"We are humans first, politic- ians second, and other areas which are of interest, they come third,' Mr, Britton told council. We are close enough to the old year to still have an eye on 1960 which is past, It takes some little time to break away from the hold that the old has on us as in- dividuals. The year just past, Mr. Britton. told council, on the front of world diplomacy had been a heart- break. There had been warfare, revolution and violence, and loss over wide physical areas.

It was a stormy night for the first service at Egmondville but the weather cleared for the remaining ser- vices. However the attendance at alle i s ry ccs was much below normal. It appears that apathy is a greater deterrent than the weather as far as the church members are concerned.Each year we have an opportunity to express our desire for 'Oneness' in our Churches and from the at- tendance it 'would seem that this was the farthest thing from our minds and hearts, The Week of Prayer provides a splendid oppor- tunity for Christian people to be prayerfully concerned in the ar- eas where our politician and diplomats have proven inade- quate, namely, a better under- standing between the peoples of the world. If in the Church we, fail to achieve a spirit of unanim- ity, whereby we seek to further God's work in our world, then we can very well write off many of the efforts being advanced today for the cause of peace. From the expressions of the lo- cal ministers there is a common agreement that prayer is the Christian's stronghold for the promotion of peace and a better understanding amongst men: When Christians throughout the world unite for prayer there is established a real power for good will and a stronger witness to the things in which we all believe. There will no doubt be other 'Weeks of Prayer' but our world, moves so quickly that a crisis could well develop before that opportunity presents itself again in 1962.

Town To Get Another Mask Monday evening the . Seaforth town council agreed with fire chief Jack Scott that the fire bri- gade needed another .smoke mask. The fire chief told council about the ,situation which arose at the McGonigle basement fire when a married man with a fam- ily had donned the brigade's one and only mask and entered the smoke-filled basement, Some trouble had developed, said Mr. Scott, and it was realized that, the fire brigade would be unable to go to the rescue of a stricken. comrade as they had no second mask. Mr, Scott brought the apparab us known as a Scott Pack into the council ohamber,I-Ie explain ed it was very much like a skin diver's equipment but it has one large tank instead of two smaller tanks. A man could sit under water with it for more than an hour if not too active; activity uses more air and shortens the time. Mr. Scott said the brigade had been very fortunate at this par- ticular fire and the man had been able to get out. safely. But the point was, said the fire chief, no other mask was. available if the first man was ' incapacitated through any sort of an accident while in the basement. The bri- gade had raised the money them- selves to buy the Scott Pack they have. Councillor Rivers asked how much it cost. The fire chief said the one they have cost -about $550 but prices had come down since then. One with a half hour tank would Cost less. The tank carries air at a pressure of 800 to 900 pounds. They have two tanks and one of them now is at MacDon- aid Electric in Goderieh to be re- filled with air—he is a skin diver, Mr. Scott said, Reeve Ball suggested getting latest prices, Mr. Scott said the mask and resuscitator (for oxy-• gen) were always on the town truck, 1 . Councillor Turnbull wanted 1.o know about the rural truck, Mr. Scott said that by the time the truck could reach the average farm fire that it was unlikely there would be need for either a mask or a resuscitator, Mayor Daly said that the fire and water committee could look into the matter.
