Reporting for the park commit- tee, Councillor Scott told Council it had not been possible to have weeds cut in the former recreation ground area because the ground haci been too rough. For this rea- son, it had been decided to plow the area, but difficulty was being experienced also, and the cost was .higher than had first been antici- pated_. More Tax Receipts, Dogs Seaforth tax situation was in an improved condition, it was reveal- ed when Clerk D. H. Wilson indi- cated the extent to which pay- ments had been made. Prepaid tax- es amounted this year to $7,410.00, as compared to $7,270.00 last year. At the sante time, there was an improvement in the amount of tax arrears which had been collected this year as compared to last year. There continues to be a balance of some $21,000.00 outstanding in tax arrears. Even the dog population has shown an increase, Clerk Wilson said, and already 120 dogs had been licensed, an increase of 15 over last year. Councillors suggested there still remained a goodly number of dogs available for licensing, Graham Oil Company, in a let- ter to Council, expressed its ap- preciation for the co-operation which had been extended to it during th.e construction and sub- sequent opening of its Blew outlet in Seaforth. Council approved building permits for Lorne Hulley in an amount of $200, and Frank Smale, $300, for garage improve- ments. Sometimes legal requirements can be confusing, and Council found itself faced with just such a situation When it was advised that it must give itself permission to run a sewer line over; a corner of the property on which is locat- ed the Town Hall. It was neces- sary to give formal approval, by means of a resolution, of an ease- ment to permit the sewer line, owned and being constructed by the town, to pass over town prop- erty. By -Law 562, which provides for an agreement with the C.N.R. to permit a sewer line across C. N. R. property, was given its sev- eral readings and finally passed. • Discuss Arena Arrangement A meeting of the Arena Commit- tee will be held within 10 days, Mayor McMaster told Council, as he 'read excerpts from a financial statement which had been made available to him that night, he said. Suggesting that Council make recommendations to the committee in connection with the arena, tpe Mayor said that insofar as he was concerned, it was his opinion that the meeting of the committee should be open to the public, and !f Council agreed, he proposed to inform the committee to this ef- fect. Councillor Christie inquired as to what arrangements may have been completed between the Curling Club and the Arena Committee for the use of •ice -making facilities. While he was of the opinion that it was most desirable to see a curling rink -being erected, at the same time he felt that Council should be informed as to any ar- rangements which may have been entered into. Mayor McMaster felt that ques- tions such as these might properly be directed to the annual meeting of the Arena Committee, and ex- pressed the hope, that members of Council and the public would indi- cate their interest in arena affairs by attending the meeting. Reeve Scoins agreed and felt that if the meeting was open, and the public inyited to attend it,. it would, as he put it, "leave a good taste in the public's mouth." There ane lots of people, he said, who are In favor of the arena, but don't know much about it. The street committee was in- structed to investigate means, of plowing certain town sidewalks during the winter. The question arose, when the Mayor reminded, Council that in previous meetings, particularly during last winter, there had been much discussion about the necessity of plowing the sidewalks of Goderich St. He toad Council if it was decided to plow sidewalks, it would be necessary to make arrangements now. He said that at a recent convention which he had attended in Windsor, he had been told that there was available a small blower costing about $700:00, which would be cap- able of doing the job. However, other councillors recalled that blowers already had been tried on test runs and had been found to be not satisfactory. In the opin- ion of Reeve Scorns, there would be difficulty plowing the sidewalks on Goderich St., unless the De- partment of Highways would agree to'remove the snow which present- ly was being plowed onto the side- walks from the highway. Constable Christensen, who was present at the meeting, was asked for his opnion and said that in Walkerton the sidewalks were kept clean by means of a horse- drawn plow. He indicri',ted that the procedure there worked quite sat- isfactorily. In connection with the traffic situation that existed Mt Goderich St., Councillor Sharpe 11111111131111111111111111111111111111111111110 QUARRY - CHRISTOPHER The marriage took place -in St. Michael's Church, London, on Sat- urday of Barbara Helen Christo- pher, to Dr. John Gregory Quarry. The ceremdhy was performed by Rev. Father P. E. McKeon. The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Christopher, of London, while the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. James A. Quarry, Bur- lington- Miss Ann Christopher was maid of honor for her sister, Miss Juan- ita Lubin, of Chicago, and Miss Suzanne Dick, of Seaforth, were bridesmaids. ' Dr. John R. Sehl, of Detroit, was groomsman. Ushers were Floyd Cooper and Donald Sheppard, both of Burlington. Miss Mary Ann Crompton was soloist, and during the . signing of the register sang "Ave Maria." Miss Margaret Mc- Intyre provided organ music. The bride was lovely in a floor - length gown of Chantilly lace over bridal satin. The tightly molded - bodice with small standup collar was offset by a hooped skirt styl- ed with cascades of pleats. A small ,scalloped Juliet cap embroidered with Chantilly roses and seed pearls, held her finger-tip illusion veil and ehe carried tea roses and stephanotis. Her father gave het in marriage. The bridal attendants were gowned alike in crystalette in autumn plum styled with pleated bodices with shrug jackets. Mag- enta velvet fiat bows as headdress- es matched the back streamers on the skirts. They carried bouquets of baby 'mums in yellow and bronze shades. A reception followed at Hook's Restaurant, when the guests were received by the bride's mother, who was gowned in iridescent navy taffeta with sapphire blue feath- ered hat and gardenia corsage. The groom's mother assisted, wearing a sunset mauve crepe dress with gold velour hat and yellow rose corsage. The bride changed to a gold and black houndstooth wool suit whth black ,,patent accessories and gars denia corsage for the wedding trip to Northern Ontario and Northern Michigan. The couple will make their home in Flint, Mich. '0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 +0 0 W. J. CLEARY 0 iJ! Seaforth, Ont.

It was suggested that later on a wide discussion with respect to the,flood situation that occurs and in which the. three municipalities of Seaforth, Tuckersmith and Mc- Killop were interested, might be held. Reporting to Council as a result of his attendance at the recent Mayor's convention held in Wind- sor, 'Mayor McMaster indicated that in his opinion, the -meeting was well worth while, although on the whole it did not deal with prob- lems in the same fashion as did meetings limited to municipalities in the province. On the other hand, the program included a number of excellent speeches, he said, by the FIon. Pat}1 Martin, Hon. Lester B. Pearson, Major-General Worthing- ton, head of Canada's Civil Defence program, and specialists in a wide variety of subjects which concern- ed municipalities. He was particu- larly interested in a speech in which the rising cost of education to municipalities was discussed. The across -Canada average for ed- ucating a pupil is 87 cents per day per pupil, he said, and it was ad- vised that an increase of 50 per cent in this amount could be an- ticipated within the next 10 years. Referring to Civil Defence pro- posals, he said the impression he bad gained was that there was not an immediate requirement for ac' tion on the part of small towns, such as Seaforth. Reeve Scoins, however, disagreed and suggested that Seaforth might well be con- sidered as being almost in a war area as a result of its proximity to R.C.A.F. Station, Clinton. Referring to a discussion which had been held at the August meet- ing, and at which a request was entered for the assistance of the fenceviewers.' Councillor Christie asked whether or not James Hen- derson, who had been appointed to the position, had accepted. -Clerk Wilson replied that he didn't know what action had been taken, ex- cept that upon having obtained legal opinion, it was now found that three fenceviewers were nec- essary, and that the town was not involved. Rather, he said, when fenceviewers were desired, it was necessary for the property owner, wishing the services of the fence - viewers, to serve those involved himself. The construction of tSeaforth's new sewer system is .proceeding satisfactorily, Council was told, when Councillor Crich raised the matter and asked whether or not difficulties were being experienc- ed. He was told that while there had been delays in certain re- spects, these were not considered to be of an unusual nature, and that the projectewas proceeding in - accordance with the plan. Mayor McMaster agreed that Seaforth's interests were being well looked after by D. L. Reid, the town in- spector, who was watching cart - fully every step of the installation: DEATH OF MRS. W. ARMSTRONG Funeral services for Margaret, Rachel McGee., wife,of W31sonrlgl strong, who passed away at the Muir Rest Haire here oa Septem- ber 8, were conducted •at t Boit Funeral Home . on Friday by her minister, Rev.
