(Continued from Page 1)
continues to be a problem and
consideration was being given
to a mechanical device that in-
dicated the speed at which .mo-
torists were travelling. It was
suggested that arrangements
might be made with Clinton to
provide for joint use. The cost
was given as $550.
Later in the evening, as con-
sideration was being given to
the report of the Public Works"
mmittee, council looked into
the matter of parking "meters.
Councillor C. Dalton said he
had been " inquiring on Main
Street • as to what merchants
and others felt regarding
meters and -had come to the
conclusion that at the moment
there did not appear to be too
many against the idea. Cer-
eainly there were not as many
opposed as there used to be.
He referred td the experience
in Mitchell, where merchants
and motorists both were happy
with the meters which were in-
stalled. Council instructed the
committee to iiffvestigate an in-
stallation of meters and to
bring in a recommendation.
Councillor Dinsmore said his
committee had had discussions
as to ways in which expenses
of the department could be re-
duced. In future, police will do
necessary cleaning of the po-
lice offices rather than having
the work done once a week at
a cost of $2 'or $3 each time.
This would- amount to a saving
of, perhaps, 8 to $10 a month,
he said.
At the present time there are
phone extensions in the police
office, clerk's office, residence
of the chief and in the residence
of one of the constables. The
eommttee proposed further sav-
ings of $12 a month by elimin-
ating all the extensions, except
that in the town clerk's office,
since it was felt that the
phones were not • being' used
When police were off duty and
on other occasions the phone in
the polio
p e office would serve.
During the month under re-
view, the report of Chief Hut-
chinson indicated that the force
had investigated 30 complaints
and that 70 occurrences had
been entered. Mileage 'bit the
pollee etulserduring t1i e
month was 1,062' miles,
0.

KITH AGRICULTURAL SAKI
PLANS FOR. 1962 FALL FAIR
The Blyth Agricultural Socie
ty has announced plans to hold
the Blyth Fall Fair on Sept. 18
19. The decision was made
a the society's annual 'meeting
Friday at the Orange Hall in
Blyth: - -
Society president, A 1 b e r t
Bacon, chairman of the meet-
ing, told the -gathering he ap-
preciated the `to -operation he
received during the past Year,
which he admitted, "had many
ups and downs." Concerning low,
attendance figures for last
year's fair, Mr. Bacon said the
fine weather and late harvest-
ing were contributing factors.
In other business, Boyd Tay-
lor was delegated to attend the
annual 4-H meeting at Clinton,
Feb. 19. Mrs. ,Fames Mais,
Brussels, stated that too much
emphasis was placed on large
fairs, rather than on better
fairs." No one should apologize
for a small fair," she said, "but
we should always look for
something new to keep up with
the times." She suggested "ex-
hibits..should be so placed that
those attending the fair can
readily see,, them. The small
fair must remember that today
One -has to compete with the
large fairs, but one does not
need to become bigger to be-
come better."
Reporting on the 1961 fair,
Simon Hallahan, leader of the
