(Ontario Hydro Photo) Grand Bend Council Pass Curfew To Keep Children Off Streets Grand Bend council last Mon- day night took immediate steps to enforce provisions of a by-law restricting the presence of child- ren and young people on the streets of the summer resort after curfew hours. Children 14 years of age and under will be required to be off the streets by nine o'clock each evening while young people under 18 must be in by 11 p. m. After these curfew hours child- ren will only be allowed on the streets while accompanied by a parent or responsible adult. Reeve Orval Wassman said, "the bylaw will be enforced by mem- bers of the Forest detachment of 1 the Ontario Provincial Police and Grand Bend Bylaw Officer James Connolly. This bylaw will be in effect from September 1 to May 1 of each year and is being enforced because of increased creak -ins at cottages in the area. All property owners in Grand Bend obtaining water from the newly installed system that wish to be billed as a summer user are asked to notify Clerk Mur- ray A. Des Jardins by October 31 in writing. Persons not making the proper notification in time will be bill- ed the full resident rate of $36 per year. Summer property own- ers receive water from April 1 to October 31 for $26 per year. The necessary bylaw was pass- ed giving the Grand Bend Public Utilities Commission the author- ity to handle all billing and collecting involved with the water system. The first billings should be out early in November with com- BIBLE SOCIETY MEETING at the Blake Mennonite Church Sunday, November 2, at 8 p.m. Speaker: Rev. E. J.

Length Counts In Pig Stock Although the length of a pig carcass is now of little import- ance in predicting the retail val- ue of a carcass, it is still a char- acteristic that should not be for- gotten when female breeding stock is selected, J. G. Norrish, Swine Specialist with the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food, reports that under the revised carcass grading system, length plays little or no part in arriving at the index value of the carcass. Backfat thickness combined with weight groupings is the main method of carcass indexing. Farmers can thus disregard length in market figs, says Mr. Norrish, but because length is a highly inherited characteristic, it should not be overlooked in selecting breeding stock. A moderately long gilt is much more likely to produce a good- sized litter than is a short an- imal, mommilmomommois Reception and Dance FOR ERIC EAGLESON and DIANE WEBER (bridal couple) Saturday, Nov. 1 DASHWOOD COMMUNITY • CENTRE Music by THE BLUEWATER PLAYBOYS Everyone Welcome Dave Shepphard SINGALONG on the Organ Every 1!MAY AND SATURDAY NIGHHT Pick Up Your BROASTED CHICKEN To Go — In the Rod and Gun Room COLONIAL HOTEL PARK GODERICH 30 THE SQUARE E 524-7811 AIRCONDITIONED PHON THURS., FRIR, SAT.
