SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1963 IQ.?AGES
. Auxiliary Has
30YearsService
The Seaforth Women's Hos-
pital Auxiliary will complete 30
years of activity in Seaforth
this week. The auxiliary came
into being on February 8, 1933,
at a meeting in Carnegie Lib-
rary Hall.
While no special events are
planned at this time, by coinci-
dence the association's annual
gingham dance is being held
Friday evening. Mrs. M. W.
Stapleton, auxiliary president,
said the anniversary would be
observed in May during Hospi-
tal Week. •
From a small beginning the
group has expanded its activi-
ties,, and in the 30 years has
raised over $20,000.00 for the
hospital. Latest project the aux-
iliary has undertaken is to
raise $10,000, for the new Sea -
forth Community Hospital. An
initial payment of $2,000.00 has
been made, and thepledge pro-
vides for payment of the bal-
ance over the next five years.
As well as supplying furnish-
ings and redecorating, the aux-
iliary has given needed equip-
ment over the years. This in-
cludes two oxygen tent units,
fracture apparatus, a food con-
veyor, a case room table, kit-
chen equipment, as well as oth-
er items.
Some of the projects provide
a more personal service to the
patients. Every baby born in
Scott Memorial Hospital is giv-
en a pair of bootees. At Christ-
mas time patients and staff re-
ceive gifts, and twice a week
through the year the hospital
cart comes to all patients. As
well as the numerous small it-
ems for sale, the cart provides
a free lending library of. mag-
azines and pocketbooks
Since 1957 'the auxiliary has
each year- given a bursary of
Chairman Solves
Labor Shortage
You can't tell Carl Dalton,
Seaforth Public Works Commit-
tee chairman, .that there are
people out of work in Seaforth.
Faced with manning equip-
ment on Wednesday morning
in order to clear Main Street
of snow, he hunted, high and
low for someone to drive a
truck.
"I looked all over town, and
even in the country, and I
couldn't find anybody," he said.
The lack of help didn't hold
up the work, however. Mr.
Dalton drove the truck' himself.

Engineer of the CNR plow
was J. Fraser; of Stratford, and
the conductor was D. A. Mar-

Hutchison, the train crew told
the investigating officer that
they had signalled for the cross-
ing, but Mrs. Heynsbergen said
she didn't hear the whistle, and
the car windows were steamed
up. The signal light at the
crossing wasn't working, she
told the investigating constable,
according to the Chief.
The warning device, CNR of-

Pennsylvania
Buys Area Hay
A drought in Pennsylvania
last summer has created an ex-
tensive demand for baled hay
in the Seaforth area.
With hay and ensilage ex-
hausted, Pennsylvania farmers
are forced to look for baled
hay at ever-increasing distances,
according to visiting buyers,
While large quantities are com-
ing in from Wisconsin by rail,
additional supplies are being
looked for in Ontario.
The drought not only reduc-
ed ,hay crops, but reduced pas-
tures. Available ensilage dis-
appeared quickly, as it was us-
ed to bolster fading pastures.
Hay from the Seaforth area
is trucked about 430 miles, each
truck carrying about 500 bales,
or 10 tons. Each trip takes two
days, and trucks have to be
at border points before mid-
night Friday for customs clear-
ance. Otherwise they must wait
until the following Monday.
Buyers said hay in the area
was of good quality, but snow -
clogged farm lanes presented
problems for trucks.
Hay for sale in this area was
rounded ded
up through classified
ads in The Huron Expositor. Ads
here produced several times
the response which ads in other
area papers made, a buyer said,
as he commented on The Ex-
positor coverage.

been reached to permit tll;,e

Rash of Small Scrapes
A rash of minor accidents
have kept Seaforth town police
busy during the past week.
Since the first of February,
eight accidents have been in-
vestigated by the force. Math,
causes of the mishaps have
been the high banks .of snow
along the streets and the icy
and snow -packed condition.
Friday aceidents included one
involving vehicles . driven by
Elliott Clarke and Alexander
Gulutzen. The vehicles collid-
ed at the corner of Chalk and
Duke Streets, with $218 dam-
age resulting.
A car attempting a left turn
from Main St, onto Goderich
St., was in collision with a semi-
trailer, with only $30 damage
resulting. Truck driver Ross
Gwyn, Goderich, attempted to
stop his vehicle when he saw
the car driven by Joseph Flynn,
RR 1, Clinton, but the large
vehicle slid into the Flynn car.
Constable . Sam Bates investi-
gated both these accidents.
Also on Friday, vehicles driv-
en by Keith Bennewies and
Sterling Habkirk collided at the
corner of Main and Genii -dock
Streets. Damages were $275.00
to the Bennewies' vehicle.
When Mervin Taylor, Exeter,
driving . a car owned by E. Hop- ,
croft, Dashwood, missed the
stop sign at Goderich St. while
proceeding .north on Main: St.,
it was in collision with a car
owned by Oliver Wright, RR 2,
Seaforth, and driven by Ken-
neth Wright. Investigating offi-
cer A. Calder placed damage at
$100 to the Wright car and $75
to the flopproft vehicle.
Three other minor accidents,
all attributed to weather and
street conditions, were also re-
ported during the 'week, Sea -
forth Police Chief Elmer Hutgh-
inson told The Expositor Wed-
nesday. . .
