Approval of a payment of $32,000
by the Department of National.
Defence to provide for the paving'
of a Tuckersmith township road;
was announced this week.
The road runs between lots ,35
and 36, concessions 1 and 2, Huron
road survey, and provides direct
access to RCAF Station, Clinton,
and west end Tuckersmith resi-
dents from No. ,8 HighwaY. The
paved connecting road will pro-
vide a favorable alternative route
to Seaforth over a provincial high-
way, and thus relieve the township
to a large extent of substantial'
maintenance costs on the 2nd con-
cession road.
Negotiations between the town-
ship and National Defence officials
at Ottawa were commenced sev-
eral years ago 'by Andrew Y. Mc-
Lean, who then was member of
parliament in Huron -Perth. At that
time it was possible to obtain
approval for .the paving of a town-
ship road leading from No. 4 High-
way and parallel to the Station.
Before paving could be continued
to No. 8. Highway, it was found
that it was necessary to replace a
brige in concession 1, HRS.
With the construction of a new
bridge by the township last yeaf,
Mr. McLean reopened the matter
of the paving being completed
with Ottawa officials, and as a
result funds for the paving are
being made available to the town-
ship by the Department of Na-
tional Defence. •
It is expected paving will be,
carried out by Huron Highways
Department as soon as necessarg
grading bas been completed.

Damage $700 In

believed to be the cause of a $700
Egmondville fire early. Tuesday.

found their home on fire, and
promptly telephoned the alarm to
the Seaforth brigade.
Most of the damage was confin-

Recalls S.A. History
(By R. .1'. WALLACE)
An era has ended. With the pur-
chase this month of the Salvation
Army building on North Main St.
by the Seaforth Orange Lodge, a
colorful' period of Salvation Army
work in this town has come to an
end. Two years ago the local corps
ceased regular operation when a
small membership and a lack of
trained officers forced the move.
Although' the corps has been
closed, the work of the Salvation
Army is still continuing in the area
under the guidance of the Stratford
corps, and at present plans are
being finalized for the annual drive
for funds to assist in the social
work of this organization.

Seaforth Orange Lodge and Lad-

the first owned by the lodge in

Main Street used for many years
as a meeting place of the Ancient
Order of Forresters, Court of Sher-
wood Forest, a group which be-
came dormant in the early 1900's.
The Seaforth lodge, formed in
1892', now has a membership of

The question of grants to rem

unanswered, although several. ar-
ternatives were suggested. •
A proposal to issue debentures
suggested a grant of $1500 a year
for three years, or an outright •
grant of .the $4500 to avoid unnec-
essary interest payments. Such
grants would require approval bir
the Department of Municipal At.
fairs.
Clerk D. H. Wilson was instruct
ed to write the Department M. die -
cover if approval could be gained.
for either of the suggested grants.
Explore Cemetery Question
Council was reluctant to take
sole responsibility for changes in
Maitlandbank cemetery admini-
stration.
Initial proposals were that a
church get-together or town meet-
ing should be held to discuss the
problem. Councillor Turnbull
thought a "municipal cemetery
board" should be set up to record
the number of burials from differ-
ent townships. In that way the re-
sponsibility of each township for
support of the cemetery could be
assessed.
"Why not call a general meet-
ing to assess all information7'
Mayor McMaster suggested, "and
hear all sides of the story?"
Councillor Kellar felt the present,
cemetery board should be retain-
ed because of their experience.
The board is not charging en-
ough if it has a deficit, Councillor
Scoins suggested. Even if the town
takes over the cemetery, rates
will have to be raised, he said.
Mr. and Mrs. Albert Roney, R.R.

golden wedding anniversary Wed-
nesday, June 5.
In the way of celebrating their
50th anniversary the Roneys plan

VO,
Enough To Do Now
Mayor McMaster said the coun-
cil has enough work already with-
out taking over administration of
the cemetery. They could 'give .a
yearly, grant to cover any deficit,
and let the present board continue.
A new board might' inclitde' represL
i entatives of Hullett. McKillop and
Tuckersmith townships.
The cemetery is the legal re-
spensibility of the municipality
where it is situated.
On the suggestion of Councillor
Christie. a committee was formed
to investigate how other cemeteries
are administered. Members of the
committee are Norman Scoins,
William Ball. John Kellar and B.
F. Christie.
Have Deputy Reeve Maybe
Clerk Wilson, reporting on the
Huron County Municipal Officers'
Association meet in Goderich May
22. said recent legislation, discuss-
ed at that meetieg, will probably
result in a deputy reeve for Sea -
forth.
Previously only property -owning
voters were counted to determine
the need for a deputy reeve. Wives
of property owners, and other vot-
ers not owning property. were list-
ed as "MFNC", that is. "municipal
franchise not counted."
Recent changes have allowed the
latter to be counted with. minor
exceptions. an.d Clerk Wilson esti-
mates the increase will entitle the
Town of Seaforth to a deputy
reeve.
Another Service Station
Attention was drawn by the
Mayor to the annual Association -
of Municipal Mayors and Reeves
meeting. to take place in Chat-
ham May 29. 30 and 31.
Two building. permits were
granted by the council. One was
the renewal of a permit to Cana-

other authorized C. E. Marley to
