DIANNE DALTON, 10, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Murray Dalton, Coleman st., shown here with Ronnie,
won the bicycle in the school Children's draw at the Lions carnival Friday night. The winning
ticket was drawn by her own brother Ronnie Dalton, who had been picked at random from the
crowd. Dionne's ticket was one of the free 'admission tickets given to school children in June.
Ronnie was not too happy about it all, figuring he was unlucky not to have pulled out- his own
ticket. He now gets his sister's olcl bike, and that is o.k. The winner had choice of a transistor radio
or a bike.
TWO HOUR PA KING
APPRI: VED
Parking meters in Seaforth will
be changed to a limit of two hours
instead of the present one hour
parking limit, town council decid-
ed at its meeting on Monday ev-
ening.
A month will probably be re-
quired to alter the meters and
amend the bylaw.
Councillor Neil Bell, near the
close of the meeting, asked that
the subject he reconsidered, hav-
ing been turned down at the July
meeting.
Councillor Cardno said merch-
ants seemed to think it would be
beneficial. A man who gets a park-
ing ticket after making a sizable
purchase in town, does not feel
very friendly, he said.
Councillor MacLean remarked
that the town looks pretty bare
in the afternoons, and the meters
are to blame,
Councillor Dalton said you have
4e remember that the merchants'
cars are no longer parked on
Main street.
Reeve Ball said altering the
meter's presents no problem.
Councillor Bell said he had ask-
ed a number of farmers and ail
had said they would like to have
two hour meters.
Councillors agreed that all of
the meters should be changed ov-
er to two hours, not just some of
them.
The meters are made so that
changing over from one hour
Parking to two hour parking is
fairly simple. 5e will provide one
hour ,parking, two five cent coins
will provide for two hours, Cop-
pers are still good, but a dime
cannot be used.
Councillors said that barber
shops and hair dressers found
an hour too short a time for
.many customers.
Council passed a resolution
adopting the two hour parking on
the meters as soon as possible.
Swine Club Will.
Exhibit At Fair
The August meeting of the
Seaforth 4-H Swine Club was
held in the agricultural board
room in Clinton on Monday, Aug.
18, Two films were shown. Mr,
Don Greive gave a talk on balan-
ced rations, and Barbara Turnbull
thanked Mr, Grieve. In the busi-
ness of meeting it was decided'
that the Swine Club would `pet
an exhibit in the Seaforth fair.
George Townsend, Ernest Laming -
ton and Ken Gemmell were ap-
pointed to plan the exhibit, The
meeting was then adjourned.
GARS COLLIDE
Just before 011e o'clock Tuesday
afternoon two cars collided at
Goderich and Coleman streets. A
'56 Chev. driven by Carman Meeh-
an, r.r. 5 Brussels, was hit by a
'50 Studebaker driven by John
(Reg,) Allh1 whose car was
wrecked beyond repair, Damage
to Chev. was about $25 to the
right front fender, No one was
injured, Chief of Police Hutchin-
son investigated.

Town Discusses
Buying Grader
At the council meeting on Man -
day evening, councillors discuss-
ed replacing the town grader.
Harold Rivers, salesman for
the Dominion Road Machinery
Co., Goderich, offered the town a
used Allis Chalmers 80 machine,
new in 1953, with GM motor, for
a flat price of $5,000.
This grader had no wing and
had never been used for snow
plowing. The wing from the pres-
ent grader and any other equip-
ment needed, could be transferr-
ed from the town's old grader.
Mr. Rivers told council his com-
pany had several other used gra-
ders, some of them priced from
98,000 to $10.000.
Some of the higher priced ma-
chines were only a few years old,
with 100 horsepower, were being
traded in for machines with more
power.
Could the town pay half now
and half at the end of the year,
Councillor Dinsmore asked. He
said the old grader could not go
through another winter of snow
plowing.
Councillor Dalton suggested
getting all tie hours they could
out of the old grader. Reeve Ball
asked if there was no trade-in on
the old grader.
Mr. Rivers said it could be sold
for scrap. Ile offered to take any
councillors to Baden or Toronto
to see the machines. He said
plowing and bucking snow takes
it out of a grader. His offer was
for cash, but would give a little
Lime for adjusting the town's ac-
counts.
Mayor Daly suggested the pub-
lic works committee bring in a
recommendation for next meeting.
Reeve Ball asked how much de-
posit was required. Mr, Rivers
said $500,
Mayor Daly reminded council
they could not commit next year's
council. Councillor Cardno said
the grader is something we must
have.
Mr. Rivers said the grader at
Baden was a GM diesel with
power steering. Ninety per cent.
of the motors now are GM, The
tires are 12x24 and in fair shape.
Mr. Rivers offered to fly any of
the councillors to Toronto if they
wanted to see a grader. It was
cheaper, he said.

Town Weigh Scales
Go To Blyth
The scales behind the town
hall were sold to the highest bid-
der, E. R. Snell feed mill, Blyth,
at the council meeting on Mon-
day evening.
Councillor Cardno said there
had been two enquiries regarding
the scales which had been oper-
ated for the past year by the
local coal dealers. Ile had two
bids, which were opened at the
meeting. The higher bid was for
$310, from the Blyth firm, The
other tender was from Mervin
Dietz of Brodhagen. The purchas-
er is expected to move the scales
within 30 days at his own ex-
pense.
The scales, which at one time
were used for weighing coal and
hay and some livestock, have in
recent years produced only a
small revenue and had become a
problem to keep in operation.
A number of years ago the
town disposed of another weigh
scales which had been located at
the old stockyards at the station.
Mayor Daly said that the scales
building had a good roof and a
wall. By putting up cement block
wails on two sides and an over-
head door, there would be good
storage space for the grader and
dump truck.
Councillors agreed that the
building should be put to some
use. The building is P.U.C. pro-
perty.

Petition Against
Sidewalk Change
The sidewalks of North Main
street were again before council
on Monday evening -at the regular
monthly meeting, All members
were present and Mayor Edmund
Daly presided.
Council received a petition from
owners and occupants asking that
sidewalks 001115111 where they are
now and not be placed inside the
tree line as council decided at a
011601al meeting in July.
Mayor Daly said the present
walks are jammed against trees
W111011 ltlust have been pelt in aft-
er the sidewalks. There was still 1
three feet to the town line. Some
houses and a fence were on town
property.
Councillors suggested that per-
https the sidewalk could be divert-
ed around places that were ton
Close t0 allow a full width walk.
Councillor Dalton said no tae
with a petition had called at his
properties on North Main street.
Councillor Dinsmore said North
Main street was not like Coder-
Mb
oderfah street, which is a highway.
The mayor said it eventually
would be a highway, in his opltt-
1011,
Mayor Daly said he and Coun-
cillor Dalton had interviewed
nearly all the residents whose
names appeared on the petition,
and they bad offered no objection
to the sidewalks going inside the
trees. He thought the petition
should be filled and taken into con-
sideration when the platter comes
Councillor John Flannery led a.
discussion on the lack of progress
of starting sewer work on North
Main, He said every time things
are lined up, some small change
is suggested and it requires fur -
the' delay until checked.
At present there is a stumbling
block in the easements for the
outflow from the sewer to the
pumping station, Some of the
easements had been verbal agree-
ments, but when put into writing
had not met with approval and re-
quired adjustment. The engineers
and Ontario Water Resources are
unwilling to call tenders until the
easements are all signed.
Councillor Flannery said if
these matters could be cleared
up, tenders might be called right
away. Any little thing can hold up
the plans. Would it be wise to
go ahead with the sewer if the
county could not follow 110 with
the road work. It would mean a
rough road and no pavement all
winter.
The consulting engineers have
let ns down, claimed Councillor
Dinsmore. The mayor said they
demand a 30 foot easement, which
causes delay,
Councillor Flannery said only
authorized connections to a sewer
should be permitted. The town
foreman should supervise when
a connection is tapped into a
sewer tile.
If not properly done an expen-
sive tile may be broken and it
might be covered up and not re-
ported. Councillor Flannery re-
ported that two hook-ups bad 1
been made to one connection.
Couucillor Dalton said we did
not want to allow everybody to
monkey with the sewers. May -or
Daly said itIr. Empey inspects all
connections into sewers and they
cannot be covered up until he has
seen it.
Mayor Daly brought up dis-
cussion about the dog catcher.
Councillors decided the dog sitla-
tion was really the best in years,
although there lead been some
complaints.
Councillor. Flannery reported
that the dump is becoming clogg-
ed. The town would make a cir-
cular road at the dump so veh-
icles could drive around and not
have to turn on the road. John
Begley, who has been iu charge
of the dump, has made some good
suggestions, he said.
Tax arrears 1061 and prior at
July 31 were $32,000. compared
to $53,000 at Dec. 31, 1961.
Current tax receipts for 1962 to
July 31st were $73,000, leaving a
balance of $90,000, of which some-
thing over $8,000 are in arrears,
Mayor Daly said the council's
budgetinghadbeen much closer
to the line this year.
Mayor Daly and Councillor Din-
smore explained the situation in
regard to clothing for police. Or-
ders were being placed. Police
reported 113 parking tags this
month, inaking a total of nearly
400.
Council approved an applica-
tion for an extra light on High
street. The PUC will install it and
it will cost the town $20 a year.
Councillor Neil Bell reported
the fire department working
smoothly.
Councillor Dalton reported
work on the streets, No price had
been set for custom asphalt work
as no work is being done,
Mayor Daly reported there had
been no reply about the stop light
sinal at the main corner.
g
e.
Parking motor at the Co-op will
be made a single head, the the
double meter interferes with
loading,
Council is making application
for interim grant on roads.
