VARIOUS OPINIONS A number of cottagers from along the Bluewater seemed very interested in the Citizens News front page last week. A few ex- pressed a wish for us to ask their fellow cottage and land owners to consider the question of "Who owns the Beaches?" Quite probably the opinions and arguments of town and city people will differ from those of waterfront owners. One lady did not care how many people used the beaches and water in front of her cottage, as long as her child- ren's safety was not disturbed. 0 Museum Bus, to Travel in Huron The curator of the Huron Pion- eer Museum, Raymond Scotchmer, is renovating an old school bus shich he plans to fill with exhibits from the museum and tour around to most of the fall fairs in the County in the near future. Attendance at the Museum is crowding the 20, 000 mark for this season. In addition to visitors from many parts of Canada and United States many people have regist- ered from Germany, Scotland, England, Japan and Holland. Ten guides, five in the morn- ing and five in the afternoon have been present throughout the summer to show the visitors around They are all collegiate students. A recent addition to the rnuseurr is an old-fashioned doll more than 100 years old. It was once owned by Mrs. Sophia Dietz, of Palmerston. The doll was later passed on to two sisters, Mrs. Martha Gaulin and Mrs. Anita Wolfe, of Detroit. They thought it should return to the land from whence it came and sent the un- ique doll to the museum at God- erich. 0 Letter to Editor (continued from page 4) wealthy Ontario.

OPP Detachment At Grand Bend Releases Report on Summer Activity While most of the summer detachment of the Ontario Prov- incial Police stationed at Grand Bend for the summer months will be leaving for their respective detachments on September 11, a small staff will be retained for a shot time. Six officers will remain at the Bend until October 15. Corporal Keith Turnbull who is in charge of statistics for the Grand Bend detachment reports "it was a busy summer with lots of investigations but very little in the way of ser- ious crime. " Up until August 24, the detach- ment had investigated 1, 355 oc- currences as compared to 1, 087 for the entire 1969 season. A total of 53 thefts were invest- igated with a loss of about $2, 200 but Turnbull says this figure is not high considering the amount of people visiting the summer resort. Most of the thefts were from parked cars and from wallets and purses left unattended at the beach and were of a petty nature. During the summer eleven count- erfeit American Twenty dollar bills appeared on the Grand Bend scene. The serial number on all bills was the same, B44932016A. Six persons reported their cars stolen but in five instances offic- ers found the vehicles exactly where the owners had left them. The other was moved only a short distance. In 1969, 58 accidents were in- REDI-MIX CONCRETE (ALSO FORM WORK) McCann Const. Ltd.
