In opening i.� said that there are not as yet lanadian books on the subject. Available books are all about rural England; and he showed a number of these including Anatomy of the Village by Thomas Shans and Virnacular Architecture by R.W. Brunkswell Yet we are in a time when the environment of our villages vulnerable to pressures of prog- ress and population explosion. He praised a recent book the Barn by Eric Arthur and Douglas White which is filled with beaut- iful pictures and descriptions of architecture. The old natural wooden ones are fast being repl- aced by aluminum siding. Situated at the mouth of the Bayfield River, geography had already played a large part in environment of our Village when it's site was chosen by Baron de Tuyll and it's plan made. The open lake, the river empty- ing in to it and the broad rolling valley running far to the east, were all there. The plan chosen for the village added interest and opportunity for variety of scene. Mr. Hill illustrated his talk at this point by quick black- board drawings of some town plans such as Goderich, Bayfield, Zurich and Brussels; all very different; and suggested some of the problems and solutions poss- ible in the preservation and growth of Towns and Villages. He used slides to illustrate many of these showing how the varied and unique qualities of each can be preserved and the environ- ment maintained. The audience showed great interest and joined in discussion which carried on during the social hour for which Mrs. John Lindsay and Mrs. Marie Watson were hostesses. The next meeting of the Society will be on Monday evening, December 10 in the Municipal Building.
