Alfred Ducharme, Correspondent
On Wednesday last visitors at
the home of yours truly and
Mrs. Ducharme were from; De-
troit, Mrs. Lawrence Ducharme,
Mrs. Tyrus Stansberry; from
Stoney Point, Sister St. Denis;
from Chatham, Sister Priscille
Theresa, and from Zurich, Mrs.
Theresa Hartman. All are the
daughters of Mr. and Mrs, Du-
•charme. They spent two days
at their parent's 'home. Their
visit was much appreciated.
Mr. Gerald Hartman and
bride-to-be called at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ducharme
on Sunday last.
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Sopha,
of Detroit, and Mr, and Mrs.
Odel Sopha, also of Detroit,
spent the week -end with Mr.
and Mrs. Dolph Sopha of this
h ighway.
On Saturday last the remains
,of the late Nelson Cantin, son
of the late Joseph Cantin and
his wife Louise, who died in
Lansing, Michigan, on Wednes-
day last and where he had his
church service in his parish,
was taken here on Saturday
last in St. Joseph parish and in
adjoining cemetery for burial.
Mr. Cantin, a native of this par-
ish, sometime after his mar-
riage moved to Lansing, Mich.,
where he had established a
prosperous business. The late
deceased leaves his young wife
and four children; his mother,
Mrs. Joseph Cantin; two broth-
ers and two sisters of close rel-
atives, besides many more rela-
tives and friends to mourn his
loss. Mr. Cantin was still a
young man, in his 47th year,
and already had achieved much
of the goods of this earth. He
being known to be generous
and always ready to help those
in need for help or goods.
It is believed that the late
Mr. Cantin had a •desire to be
laid to rest in the family plot
where his ancesters are laid to
rest in this his native parish
so that he would be united with
them in a deceased group.
There is an old saying that it
matters not where your de-
ceased lies to decay and return
into dust. but perhaps the late
Mr. Cantin had other motives
during life. Perhaps relating
to the resurrection day when
he would find himself with his
loved ones (who knows?). Why
so, there is nothing wrong with
the idea and whether or not if
he had this desire will it be
granted -only the end of time
will tell.
For the Day
Tomorrow's sun will rise
ether in splendor or behind a
mask of clouds, but it will rise
until it does we have no stake
for it is as yet unborn. This
leaves only one day -today.

Anyone ,can fight the battle of
just one day, It is only when
you and I add the burdens of
those two eternities -yester-
day and tomorrow that we
break down, It is not the ex-
perience of today that matters,
it is remorse or bitterness for
things which happened yester-
day or the dread of what to-
morrow may bring, Let us
therefore live but one day at
a time.

The Reeve, Councillors and Ratepayers,
The Corporation of the Township of Hay,

Gentlemen:
I have audited the accounts and records of the Township of Hay

statements listed in the index accompanying this report,

The operations for the year resulted in a surplus of $3,512.24, com-
pared with a deficit of $2,405.43 for 1964.
Presented herewith is a condensed Statement of Comparative Rev-
enue and Expenditure for the three years ended December 31, 1965, 1964
and 1963.

as follows:

surplus $7,197.75
Expenditures out of revenue funds for drains are not being sys-
tematically collected or refunded. As a result, the Township's funds are
being locked into these expenditures over many years. The net amount of
Township funds expended but not collected amounted to $13,476.71 as at
December 31, 1965. No independent verification was made of this amount
as it is not practical to do so.
Auditor's Opinion
Subject to the foregoing, I report that in my opinion
(1) The financial transactions which have come under my notice have been
within the powers of the municipality.
(2) The audit has been conducted in accordance with the instructions of
the Department of Municipal Affairs.
(3) The financial statements present fairly the financial position of the
municipality as at December 31, 1965, and the results of its operations
for the year ended on that date.
