In 1924 he bought a lot on ran Gregor Square from Wil- iam Dixon and built his own arage, In 1927 he built the 3luewater Booth to the south f the garage which Mrs. West- ake operated until 1950. In 1951 Walter Westlake ac - nixed an extra lot from John ✓IacKenzie, tore down his old arage and built a new one. It was he who fostered the icnic tables on Clan Gregor quare. So many people bought ood, soft drinks or a pot of ea at the Bluewater Booth ind took it to their cars, that Halter built one picnic table or the convenience of their patrons, and put it under the naples on the park opposite the booth. It was appreciated so much that next year he added three more tables. And they were invariably filled around meal- time on a fine day in the sum- mer. After about four years, the Village trustees got the idea of a service to visitors and placed then around the square, built swings, etc., for the chil- dren. Walter Westlake 'has been the efficient chief of the Bay - f ield Fire Department, a volun- teer organization, since it was formed in 1947, •and has also contributed greatly to the me- chanical operation of the ve- hicles. For two years he has thought of selling, as the pressure of work mounted. Asked what he intended to Flo, he replied in his usual jocu. lar manner: "Selling will put me on Easy Street, I's just going to sit and watch the po- tatoes grow!" And as an afterthought, he said, "There'll be plenty to do around the garden to keep me occupied." Actually, he is looking for- ward to freedom from respon- sibility, to be able to pick up and go to visit their sons in British Columbia, or take other trips as the spirit moves them.
