No. 2 Forum met this week at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wal- ter McClure with an attendance of 20 adults. The subject was, "What About Farm Management." It was felt that farm management would be all right for the younger farmer starting to farm. We don't think it would be needed unless he is un- able to manage his own affairs. It was considered that the per- son that benefits from the service should be the one that pays for it; also operated by the farm organ- ization or the Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture. A social hour was spent in cards. Winners were: ladies, Mts. Stew- art Dolmage, Mrs. Sam McChire and Mrs. Walter Scott; men, Sam McClure, Robert McMillan and Walter Scott. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Palin. PARR LINE FORUM Parr Line-Far/A Forum Met at the home of Mr. and 'Mrs. Ross Love With 14 members present. The topic for -discussion was, "What About Farm Mangenient?" After listening to the radio broad - east, the , questions in the guide Were titisWeretl, of 5-3 here Tuesday night, in . a game that had everything. This was Seaforth's second win out of four games.

The deficit amounts to $2537, John Longstaff and W. T. Teall, representing hockey inter- ests, told council. The municipal grant of $1400 will permit outstanding accounts to be cleared on the basis of 50 cents on the dollar. It is expected all credtiors will agree to such an arrangement, according to the delegation. One account—covering board—will •be paid in full, Reviewing hockey difficulties, the delegation told council when Junior "B" was organized this year. it was expected that with some assistance from the town, plus $1,000 promised by Chicago, debts could be paid in full. Since. Chicago withdrew its -support, this no longer was possible. As far as the present season. is concerned, Mr. Teall told council he felt the hockey program would break even, providing the sale of booster tickets held up. Certain additional expenses involved in the operation of minor hockey would be faced, but probably could be met. Agreeing the hockey group need- ed help, Councillor Kellar, at the same time wondered whether coun- cil should assist one organization and not others. Councillor Close felt it unreas- onable that groups go ahead with proposals, and when difficulty is experienced ask council for help. Discussing the arrangement the team has with the Arena Mr. Teall said the arena gets 40%, the club 60%, after game expenses. Mem- bers of council were disturbed, be- cause they had no knowledge of arena commission activities. May- or McMaster said he had no know- ledge of a meeting having been held, but Councillor Christie, also a member of the commission, said he had been present. In attempting to arrive at a rea- sonable grant, Mayor McMaster wondered. whether if the town put up $1,000, neighboring townships would each donate $200. This iiti'S` not considered feasible, it being pointed out few booster tickets were being sold in the country. Recalling that he had opposed Junior "B" at public meetings be- cause he doubted it could be af- forded, Reeve Scoins Wonderecr whether the Lions Club would fore- go an annual grant of $125 or park maintenance, so that amort could go to minor hockey. As the meeting adjourned, Reeve Scoins asked. council to make ob- ligatory the provision of financial statements in every case where a grant is requested of council. It was agreed he would discuss how this could best be done with the town solicitor. avi ng a sead st y ream of snots" peppered at them.

Question No. 1: In what circum- stances might the individual farm- er in your neighborhood use a farm management service? An- swer: We think that with the in- formation we can get from, farm magazines and papers and the ag- ricultural representatives. if we were getting adequate prices for the products we could manage our- selves. No. 2: Who should pay for it?, No. 3: Who should operate it: universities, provincial d e p a r t- ments of agriculture, farm organ- izations,' commercial organiza- tions? Answers to 2 and 3: This forum does hot think this farm management service is necessary. We feel that If this plan was put into action there would be an in- crease in production and therefore there would be a greater surplus of goods on the market, and na- turally the prices wouldodrop. The farmer would have more work for the same amount of money. We feel that the farmers should have more of the consumers' dollars. The discussion was followed by a few games of progressive euchre. Whiners were: ladieS, Mrs. Chas. Robinson, Mrs. Glenn Weido; gents, Eldon Jarrott, Ken McKay, The next Meeting is revieve • night. It will be heldat the home Of Mr. and MM. Gerden. Celettkail, • Mr., Mrs, A. Kerr, Receive Guests On Saturday afternoon many friends and, neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. Archie Kerr, 6th concession of McKillop, called to wish them many more years of wedded bliss on the occasion of their fiftieth wedding anniversary.

Pouring tea in the afternoon were Mrs. Percy Smith and Mrs. J. L. Kerr, and in the evening Mrs. Ross Murdje and Mrs. Lorne Webster, ail of Seaforth.

L.O.B.A. Dance Goes On Despite Union Ban Despite Union differences that have resulted in the Lloyd Wright orchestra of :London cancelling an aireement to„play here, members of the L.O.B.A. and L.O.L., who were arranging the dance, an- nounced this week the dance sche- duled for Nov. 16, in the Commun- ity Hall, will go ahead as planned. Services of a popular orchestra are being obtained. Officials of the society had en- tered into what they considered was a firm agreement for the ap- pearance of the CFPL orchestra here and had advertised the dance extensively throughout the district. They were surprised to be advised by the Wright orchestra that since Stratford mitsicians' un- ion refused to let them play here, it was necessary to cancel the Di6k0011y Vancouver, B.C. agreement, • Seaforth ratepayers will be call- ed on to decide whether or not they approve the extension of the sewer system to serve Goderich Street West and Scott Memorial Hospital, Seaforth Council decided Monday night. Council gave two readings to the sewer by-law and passed an en- abling by-law to permit the mat- ter to be referred to ratepayers. The vote will take place on Dec, 12 at the same time as municipal elections are held. Possibility of a vote on the sewer question was seen at the October meeting of council, when Council- lor Scott Habkirk gave notice of his intention to introduce an en- abling by-law at the November meeting. At that time he said he felt sin.ce there had been so much controversy surrounding the mat- ter, the public should have an op- portunity of expressing an opinion. While council set in motion ma- chinery for a vote, it was not with- out some hesitation on the part of some members. Councillor Habkirk found the by- law as drawn to be different than he had expected. In answer to a query from Councillor Kellar, it was explained the by-law covered only that work proposed last sum- mer—an extension along Goderich St. West I and to the Hospital. Reeve Scoins felt the by-law didn't go far enough. "I think you should have gone further and de- fineda means of providing pro- gressive sewage throughout the town. The vote would be differ- ent if it was on the whole town," he said. Councillor J. T. Scott understood, he said, that when sewage was first undertaken, it would in time cover the town. To Replying to suggestions that there were areas in town for which there was no requirement for sew- ers, Reeve Scoins pointed out the south section of town was not in that category. He agreed that the people should have a vote, but that the question should be broader— something in which all were inter- ested. After second reading had been given, Clerk Wilson explained in answer to a query, that the vote on the sewer by-law would now have to take place, even though all municipal offices were filled by acclamation. Councillor Christie raised the matter of service to Goderieh St. West. People on the south side of Goderich St., beyond Sparling St., can't get service, he pointed out. A simple majority is all that is required to give approval to the by-law, Clerk Wilson said, He was unable to indicate • the number of ratepayers entitled to a vote. Un- der certain circumstances tenants may vote. Councillor Close Back All members of Council were present and Mayor E. A. McMas- ter presided until called out near the end of the meeting, when Reeve Scoins took over the chair. Council welcomed back Councillor E. H. Close, who had been absent through illness. Court tif revision on the 1957 assessment roll will be held Mon- day. December 3, at 8 p.m. Coun- cil was informed there are a num- ber of appeals. To Clean Drain Frank Reynolds, who owns land adjacent to the western limits of the town, appeared and asked, that action be taken to clean a ditch running southeast from his proper - P PULATION INCREASE ENSURES BRIGHT AGRICULTURAL FUTURE Members Of the Lions 4-H Poul- try Club were 'guests of the, Lions at a chicken dinner in St. Thomas' Church Hall Monday evening. The meeting was arranged by Club Leaders J. M. Scott and Dick Whitely, Mr.. Scott presided. Mem- bers welcomed W. J. Duncan, who returned following his illness. Describing the outstanding con- tribution which 4-H work made. to .he community, Lion President J. S. Cluff welcomed the guests. Assistant agricultural representa- tive Art Bolton told the meeting 559 4-H projects were under way in the county this year, of which 85% had been completed. Each year ,sees an increase in quality. The meeting paid silent tribute to the late Dr. J. G. De Pape, who died a few weeks ago. Dr. De Pape had been active in the club lead- ership. Introduced by Mr. Bolton, Geo, Gear, Bruce County agricultural representative, told the meeting there was a bright day dawning for Canadian agriculture. Indus- trial development. coupled with large increases in population, made necessary increased food supplies. At the same time, there was a falling off in the number engaged in agriculture. The difficulty, he said, might well be not one of surpluses, but I the problem of feeding the popu- lation. As more youth left the farm, it was necessary that farm- ing methods increase in efficiency if production was to be maintain- ed. He described the necessity for productive increases as -a chal- lenge to 4-H members—the farm- ers of tomorrow. Production can be increased and as an example, Mr. Gear said in Denmark output was lip four times since 1900. Describing means adopted to in- crease efficiency in Bruce, the speaker told of cases where farm- ers were depending on the output of beef type milking cows for day- to-day expense money. The work involved, coupled with poor stock, resulted in a return of about $100 a 'year, or 27 cents an hour. Farm management training suggested the advisability of obtaining pro- active dairy cows, Farm man- agement, he says, teaches what to do under particular circumstances. The speaker, while recognizing the need for more efficient pro- duction, said he hoped the day I would not come when the family farm disappeared. Neighborliness depends on it, he said. R. S. McKercher thanked the i speaker. while Bonnie McLeod ex- pressed appreciation to the Lions Club. !Lady Curlers Ready Expect Ice SoOn McKillop Fair Names Officers McKillop School Fair closed the year with a balance. despite less- ened attendance due to late har- vest, directors learned- at the re- cent annual meeting.

Competition curling will be held Thursday afternoons as in the past year. Work of making ice at the curl- ing rink commenced over the week end and it is expected curling will be underway shortly, according to club officials. In commenting "n activities which are planned. it was empha- sized that any who are interested in curling are free to visit the curl- ing rink at any time. While the annual campaign to provide funds for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind has been under way for some time, at least an additional $100 is required if Seaforth is to reach its objec- tive, according to fund treasurer G. C. Brightrall. Donations may be forwarded to Mr. Brightrall, care of the Cana- dian Bnnk of Conimerce, Seaforth, or left at the bank, , McKillop Friends Honor Joy Jowl" Approximately 80 friends and neighbors gathered at Duff's Church, McKillop. on Tuesday eve- ning to honor Miss Joy Jahtzi, bride -elect, at a miscellaneous shower. During the evening a bride's book was made and several contests en- joyed. Mrs. Robt. Doig and Mrs. Gordon McKenzie 'gave two read- ings. The basement was decorated with pink and white streamers and bells. The bride was seated in a decorated chair with her mother, Mrs. Aaron Jantzi, and the groom's mother, Mrs. Alfred Ross, On either side. Catherine Campbell read the ad- dress and Dorothy Keys and Jean Scott carried in the well-ladep bas- ket. Joy thanked everyone for the beautiful gifts and invited every- one to visit her in her new home in Hibbert. On Saturday evenig Joy Jantzi was honored at a miscellaeous shower when about 25 girl friends gathered at the home of Audrey Godkin. The evening was spent in contests, conducted by . Marion Hemingway; duet by Gloria and Edith Boyd; reading by Sandra Doig, and a stepdance by Lois God - kin.

Ltineh Wag Seited. ty. He felt the matter could be handled more economically by.. agreement than by bringing in au - engineer and agreed to pay $30 to the work. Mr. Reynolds said the cost would be about $1.00 a rod to have the work done by a power shovel. This was what a similar job in MeKil- lop had cost. About 100 rods was involved. The street committe is to take necessary action. Councillor Scott said he had dis- cussed the matter with Tucker - smith Council and that they were not interested. Tuckersmith would, however, pay half the cost of 16 - inch tile to close in a drain on Brantford St. This, too, was • left to the street committe. Reporting for the street 'commit- tee, Councillor Leslie said a num- ber of trees had been removed, certain drains cleaned. and a new drain installed through Victoria Park. Snow fences were in place. Councillor Close again pointed out to council the necessity of ob- taining either a truck or grader for snowplowing. Suitable equip- ment . was available from the Ad- ams people in Paris. Reeve Scoins said Dominion Road Machinery at Goderich also had equipment. Councillor Habkirk and street superintendent H. Maloney are to check and report. Councillor Habkirk, chairman of the property committee. said Town Hall changes and construction were well under way. Council agreed that his committee proceed with necessary repairs to the former waterworks residence. A check valve has beeil installed at the sewage disposal plant to prevent river water backing up, Councillor Leslie, chairman of the sewage committee, said. The con- tractor had not completed •replace- ment work necessary, and there were rumours the company was perhaps not in a position to do the work. The solicitor and en- gineer were checking. Mr. Leslie spoke of the work which had been done by the solici- tor since the sewer program got under way nearly three years ago. Involved was the completion of 46 easements, as well as four trips to Toronto and countless consulta- tions. Mayor McMaster told council of a convention concerning drainage and sewage which he had attend- ed in Windsor. Accepted practise, he said; is that all laterals be not less than six inches and in many cases 10 inches. Sewers should be laid in crushed stone and packed with sand. All lines should be flushed twice a year to prevent costly replacement work in the future, was informa- tion he had gained from conven- tion speakers. If the provnieial water resources board undertook a sewer program in the town, the cost would be high, Mayor McMaster warned. The board would insist on serving the entire town and would also oper- ate the disposal plant. Commenting on the value of the meeting, Mayor McMaster said he wished he had known when sewer work started here, what he knows now. The Mayor reminded council Clinton was reviewing its drain sys- tem and replacing a portion each year in accordance with an ap- proved plan He felt in the long run such a course would save much money. The big difficulty here; Reeve Scoins felt, was that there were no records of existing drains. The town solicitor will ask the Municipal Board and Department of Municipal Affairs as to steps that can be taken to relieve five citizens from liability as a result of advances they had made to per- mit the construction of a perman- ent floor in the Arena. Councillor Scott was doubtful as to the value of the floor. He felt the only benefit was to the Cham- ber of Commerce. who held a show on Fair Day. Reeve Scoins said that wasn't so —that everything on such occa- sions was given by the Chamber of Commerce to the Agricultural Society.

The P.U.C. had paid $752.27, representing a re- bate on street lighting charges. A delegation from S.D.H.S., in - ,eluding trustee C. M. Smith and Principal L. P. Plumsteel, drew council's attention to a dangerous condition that obtains in the school district as a result of careless driv- ing. The police committee will discuss the problem. with town police, with a view to eliminating the trouble, Mayor McMaster said. Councillors drew attention to other dangerous situations, including bicycles on sidewalks and Joy - Walking on town streets. ;-•• • . • ••• •"'l" Seek hi Town Tikes Opti On 35 Aires • • - A recommendation 'by Mayor McMaster that the town take an eiition to purchase 34 acres pf land as a potential site for industry was accepted. by Council Monday night. The 'option covers land owned by Carl Dalton, and is located south of the C.N.R. at the westerly end of Railway Street. The option is for six months at a rate of $115 per acre. The option was obtain- ed for $100. The action was recommended, Mayor McMaster told council, be- cause officials of the Mid-W.OD,A- had told him an industry was in- terested in this area. He had been told if anything was to come of the matter, it would be necessary to have at least 30 acres available. The site in question had been inspected and was felt to be well adapted, he said. Plan Restaurant In Queen's Building Plans to operate a restaurant in the Queen's Hotel were concluded Saturday night, when Jack Chereos entered into a lease for a portion of the building. The hotel has been closed for some months. Mr. Chereos, a former Seaforth resident and well known in the district, will open the restaurant in what Was the dining room of the hotel. Major alterations are under way, which will include the pro- vision of a new entrance onto Goderich St. Planned to provide a full restaurant service, the new enterprise expects to open Dec. 15, according to Wilson Oke, who ar- ranged the rental details. Hockey Hapn's (Ey W. T. Teall) At a well-atterided meeting fol- lowing the game last week, your present group agreed to continue 'management of the Junior "B" team. and I believe all points of disagreement were cleared up. As you know. J. E. Keating won the $100 draw and at the meeting it was agreed that he and Mr. Reid would accept the prize and each have purchased an additional $100 worth of booster tickets. That all may know how our ex- penses are made up, I would like to explain the following expense accounts: Travelling expense is the cost of players and coach driv- ing to Seaforth for games and practices. also the cost of taking players to out-of-town -games. This is one of our biggest expense ac- counts, but we feel it is cheaper to bring players in than maintain them intown. Coaching. as you will see. is $25 per week—very reasonable, we be- lieve. since this means being here every Sunday afternoon and gen- erally four nights each week—two for games and two for practices. Lunch expense is composed of monies given to players after each game. which is $1.00 at home and $2.00 away. This is the only money given any player besides driving expenses to the ones who drive here. and this is only enough to cover bare expenses for gas. etc. From Lucan. Wingham, Goderich, and Stratford it is $3.00, and from Hensall and Clinton it is $2.00. which we feel is not exces- sive. I believe the balance of the state- ment is self explanatory. such as equipment. etc. 1: May we again ask our rural friends to try and purchase or sell the tickets mailed to them. or at least see that they are returned, as we must account for all tickets out. and each ticket is charged to the party to which it was mailed. * You will see by the following ac- count that to date we have been able to keep even, but we now have the additional expense of equipping the minor hockey teams, 1 and for this reason we are going to have additional •help by way of booster ticket sales. I know we have hockey friends who have not as yet purchased their ticket, but intend to do so. It is impossible to contact all, so please do not wait for someone to call. $ $ The following is our statement to date: Ticket sales to date $1,985.00 Vena's release 75.00 Cash donations 42,75 Gate receipts 165.90 Turkey draw 14015 $2,300.40 Expenses to date last week $1,009.92 Coaching 25,00 Advertising and stationery 11 0211 0A.
