Farmers especially are faced with a seri- ous problem due to the dry spell. Many farmers have been drawing water from their tilos- est village to relieve the situa- tion. Most are using the water for both household and live-'• stock use. Up until this week a number of farmers have been able to get water from the Hensall PUC, at a nominal fee, but due to the dropping of the level of the well, the Commission has found it necessary to discon- tinue this practice. Weather forecasters don't hold much hope for relief in the immediate future. One fore- caster has suggested there might be a small amount of rain fall this weekend, but was not too encouraging with the re- port. According to Centralia records, only .13 of an inch of rain has fallen this month, com- pared to an average total of three inches for October, 1 E FIRST HOLY COMMUNION was administered to 19 children at St, Boniface Church, Zurich, on Sunday morning by Father C.

Over the years Canadian youngsters have learned and enjoyed the privi- lege of sharing with their friends. Through education in schools and libraries they know that their help with UNICEF Hallowe'en pennies is needed. Hence their pride in collecting for UNICEF equals the joyous acceptance of jelly beans and candy kisses. Last Hallowe'en Canadian weather wars as variable as to- day's political climate.
