The Huron Expositor, 1955-05-20, Page 10The C. of C. Reports (By ERIC MILNER, Secretary) Safety Week The Chamber wishes to thank Police Constables Ferris and Christiansen, our school teachers, the members of our churches, and the people of Seaforth, in bringing to a successful conclusion our Safety Week. During the -week two safety films were shown at St. James' and the Public School, and all churches were asked to speak to the children in the Sun- day Schools on safety. Saturday we had our Cycle Roadeo at the Park." Thirty-five cyclists were present and five prizes were awarded, to the safest cyclists. We had hoped to issue reflectors to each cyclist, but ow- ing to the non -arrival of these, we issued coupons to the children who may pick up their reflectors at Daly Motors on Wednesday or Thursday. P.C. Ferris did the judging at the roadeo, and giving a helping hand were Bruce Gehan and Merv. Nott. Membership Our membership is now thirty, but we hope that many more pub- lic -minded citizens will join us in our work for the community. Suggestions We would ask if you have any ideas of how we can improve our town and district. Last week we were asked to bring up the follow- ing at our next meeting: 1. The need for drinking fountains; 2. The need for public rest rooms. We would be glad to have your comments on these suggestions.
