The small amount a money order costs, assures you that your money will be safe and sound. No one can receive the cash except the person to whom you send the money order. Next time you want to send money, whether $5.00 or $500.00, call in on us for a money order or bank draft. This takes only a few minutes to arrange. It's one of the many helpful banking services we provide. THE CANADIAN BANK OF COMMERCE NW -206 SEAFORTH BRANCH: G. C. Brightrall, Manager on •mr • MAPLE LEAF DAIRY. Harvey Traviss, Proprietor E 1Of SEAPOItT11 • Main St. Whisperings' (By LEE -HEE) With the going of the ice from the creeks and rivers, thoughts of fishing come to mind. Large runs of smelt occur in practically all streams in Ontario. The 1956 smelt fishing regulations permit residents to take smelt in a dip net up to three feet by three feet without a license, during April and May. A resident may use a seine net up to 30 feet by six feet, or a dip net up to six feet by six feet to take smelt un- der authority of a "resident lic- ense to take smelt for personal use," available from license is- suers at $190. A non-resident may take smelt under authority of a $5.00 "non- resident license to take smelt for personal use." Under these licens- es, the nets may be operated' day or night. Pails, dippers and such contriv- ances used by, smelt fishermen, are considered as small dip nets. As such, the resident operator does not require a license if the size does not exceed three feet by three feet. • § § Our neighboring town of Clinton became the first town in Huron County to change to the dial sys- tem, when on Sunday, April 15, the changeover took place. There'll be little, if any, of "Number, Please," from the staff at the new building which houses the dial system - equipment. Will Seaforth be next on the list? • § § Glad to see that Spring is here at last, No doubt but that we will have a few cool nights with frost, but the cry, "Keep the home fires burning," will not be heard for another four months at least. Isn't it nice to be able to forget banking the fires at night for a while? Some thunder and light- ning Saturday night may bring a little -cooler weather, but there was little rain as yet to clear the dirt of the streets. Town employees were busy last week sweeping much of the refuse of Main Street and it sure improved the look ot the town. § § Parking in town is -a problem that is not new. We read in the papers the same hue and cry. The big question is what are we going to do about it? No doubt those who read the local papers the past week sawthe council's advertise- ment requesting help in the solv- ing of this parking problem, and it is hoped that every reader will send in the coupon with their answers In a town where the majority of the buying public is drawn from the farming area. the problem be- comes a very difficult one to solve in order to please the majority. However, with the aid of everyone that it, will affect. the Town Coun- cil should be able to come to a reasonable solution. Seaforth is not alone in this problem, as we stated before. Other surrounding towns have the same problem, and not only that. but they are farm- ing communities too. The way we look at the situation is this: If one town should go ahead and put in meters, then they will lose by the very fact cus- tomers will go where they don't have to pay to park. The same applies to the others. Now the ob- ject is not to drive the customers away, but to aid them in finding suitable parking facilities. In or- der to 'do this and to maintain the good -will of the buying public, the town councils of the surrounding towns should get together. particu- larly if meters are going to be in- stalled. and discuss the situation. We feel that by doing this no one would have the advantage and all would retain their customers. If the meter system is going to be introduced in one town and not in another, then that town is bound to suffer because today the -trend of the buying public is to save pennies where the biggest bargains are, and free parking is available. Send in the coupon today and give the Town Council your an- swer. It is from this that they then can decide what is the desire of the buying public. Do it now.

We quote from the Gode- rich Signal -Star: "It cost Mayor J. E. Huckins eight cents to learn that 'people are getting fed up' because Goderich is going to the dogs." Town C;erk S. H. Blake explain- ed that the mayor paid eight cents to get an unstamped letter out of the post office. The envelope con- tained a clipping about dog con- trol legislation being enacted at Byron. The anonymous sender al- so enclosed this note: "What's wrong with Goderich having a law like this? Do our children have to be bitten first? Do you ever drive about the school yards or out in Strang Crescent or the new housing on Blake? The people are getting fed up!" Said Mayor Huckins: "1 hope they don't all copy that and put letters in there that cost eight cents per dog." We ctin't know what the legisla- tion on the clipping was but it must be good in the opinion of the Goderich writer. Perhaps some- thing will come out of this little iteni, as far as Goderich is con- cerned, and we thought we would pass it on to yon not that anyone in Seaforth would go so far as to cause the town the expense of eight cents, even if the town has gone to the dogs for the past few weeks, but then if we were to add up the number of dogs roaming the town this spring, I'm sure at eight cents. Per dog the bill would be dog -gone high. 14' Spring Event Here A daffodil ,,aa was.e1d at the resKeAge of gr. and Mrs. Frei* Kling on Wednesday., when the kettle was decorated with_daedls 'and. irises.
