Ballad No Booze .� - Higher Taxes?? Valentine's Day in Rayfield Was a bit of switch this year, Instead of the hearts and flowers, It was yes or no for the beer. Voters turned out in great num- bers, To mark "X" on the spot, Some people got out who hadn't been out, Since •the weather had stopped being hot. In the morning the drys turned out in full force, The dry scrutineers beamed with pride. The wets at the table were gloomy and sad, But tried all their anguish to hide. In the late afternoon, when the day's work was done, The wets poured into the place. You could tell they were wets, 'Cause the wet scrutineers had smiles all over their face. The ballots were eight in num- ber, And I think I am telling the truth, If you stopped to read every question, You would never get out of the booth. I entered the booth with my ballots, And slapped a big "X" on them all. No reading for me—Now I wonder, If I voted a yes for De Gaulle. The wets said that hooch would bring business, The drys—"It would ruin the town". The drys must have got to more people, 'Cause the sons of guns turned it down. Well, we know where we stand in the village, No chance of becoming a souse. But I wonder how many out and out drys, Have a cellar of booze in the house? ERIC EARL, Bayfield, Ont. —(Reprint from Clinton News Record.) Bayfield council discussed tribute advice—decisions are misuse of the village dump and made by council. agreed to erect signs stating Councillor Sturgeon said "we that only residents of Bayfield and Stanley Township may use it --and warning that offenders will be prosecuted. A request from Huron Coun- ty Historical Society for a grant was rejected. Mert Merrier moved that as the village of Bayfield contributed a comfort- able monthly meeting place to the local branch of the society no further donation should be considered. The clerk, Mrs. Maloney, an- nounced the receipt of an in- stallment of the unconditional per capita grant, which in 1968 will be $4.50 per cauita based on a population of 465. Letters of thanks from Mr. A. Morton and Mrs. G. Hopson for use of the municipal build- ing were received, The clerk next reported that the addition- al $20,000 fire coverage on the Bayfield Community Centre would be $697.88 per annum. Discussion as to how anoney would be raised to maintain and operate the finished arena led to a disc1asure that since the village is declared 'dry' there will be almost no chance of getting a special occasion li- cence for .a fund raising ban- quet. The reeve then said "if we •cannot make a profit to de- fray maintenance costs we may have to increase the mill rate". A request by the planning committee for legal advice to formulate a building by-law, sub -division control by-law and "part-lot"control by-law was hotly debated. !Councillor Mern- er said "maybe we should stop paying for legal advice and give the taxpayers some return for their money". He also said that the committee appears to be keeping the village dormant. Councillor Baker said that the planning committee is working for he good of the community. Reeve McFadden said that council should work closely with the planning committee as "we have no money to spend on legal fees".

Westlake Furniture Main Street — Zurich How come we "quiet Canadians" are the world's talking -est telephone users ? Could be that Canadians have an eye for a bargain. For the 14th year in succession, Canadians have led the world in telephone calls per person. Why? One reason could be this: your telephone company makes conversation inexpensive .. , and easy. In Canada, a flat residential rate covers all local calls. In most other countries, each call over a monthly maximum is charged separately. And the number of "work hours" it takes to pay for a residence telephone for one month is lower in Canada than anywhere else in the world. (In Bell Canada territory, a man employed in the manufacturing industry works an average of 2.1 "work hours" to pay for monthly telephone service as against 2.5 in the U.S.A.; 4.5 in London; 15.8 in Paris.).
