Given in marriage by her father, the bride chose a floor - length gown of white nylon over lace and taffeta. The gown featured a bodice trimmed with pearls and sequins and lilypoint sleeves. Her fingertipveil was held by a tiara of rhinestones, ' aurora borealis crystals and pearls. She carried a bouquet of pink roses. Miss Margaret Chesney, Sea - forth, was the maid of honor, wearing a dress of pink rose silk organza, styled with a lace bodice and bell-shaped skirt, Miss Marilyn Neil, Kirkton, and Kiss Lorraine Talbot, Kip - pen, both cousins of the bride, were the bridesmaids.

HURON ' MPP RELEAES NEWEST IN ONTARIO HIGHWAY MAPS The 1963 edition of the Offi- cial Road Map of Ontario is now available for general dis- tribution, Highways Minister Charles S. MacNaughton has announced. The new map, completely re- vised and up=dated,...contains several improvements over those of previous years. The more effective use of color is one of the most strik- ing new features. The back- ground .on former maps has been in a pale yellow, where- as the 1963 map shows the province in white — a feature which improves clarity and makes map reading easier. The inset maps of the ma- jor cities and towns, showing main highways and streets, are larger in the new edition—an- other distinct improvement. The use of new modern type faces adds also to the clean ap- pearance, as do the distinct county boundaries and the con- spicuous as well as attractive boundaries of the provincial parks, forests and game pre- serves. Another improvement intro- duced in the new map- is the outline of built-up suburban areas around many cities and towns,,,such as Ottawa, Metro- politan Toronto, Burlington and others. Accredited hospitals throughout Ontario are indicat- ed by a red "H". By an improved layout of pertinent information it has been possible to reduce the over-all size of the map, but the actual scale remains the same. The mileage tables showing distances over individual high- ways are now shown on a com- pact triangular table, showing distances between cities and major towns over the most di- rect routes. Another new feature is a small-scale map of the whole province, showing the routes of the Trans -Canada Highway - as well as the various multi -lane freeways. As in previous years, the 1963 map has been designed by the Highway Department's own Cartographic Section, with the cover executed by the D. H. 0. Art Section. Th( new map may be obtain- ed free of charge from any of the 18 district or five regional offices of the Department of Highways, Ontario, the Head Office of the Department, or the Department of Travel and Publicity, the mail address be- ing Parliament Buildings, To- ronto. The map will also be available at any of the Tourist Reception Centres operated by the Department of Travel and Publicity scheduled to open ap- proximately May 15. As a supplement to the map, the Department of Highways has published a booklet con- taining detailed mileage tables for all King's Highways and Secondary Highways in the province. This booklet may be obtained from the Department at a cost of $1.00. In response to many requests a separate map of the northern and north-western parts of Ontario is in preparation and twill be released in the near future.

We have examined the -balance sheets of the Munici- pality of the Town of Seaforth and its affiliated bodies as at December 31, 1962, and the related statements of revenue and expenditure for the year then ended. Our examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of accounting records and other supporting evidence as we considered necessary in .the circumstances. We report as follows: (a) We have obtained all the explanations and- infor- mation we have required. (b) All the financial transactions which have come under our notice have been within the powers of the Municipality and its boards, except for the following: (1) Taxes added on supplementary tax roll under Section 53 of the Assessment Act in respect to the County of Huron have not as yet been .paid to the County. (2) An amount of $8,470.74 is shown on Statement B attached ^as due from capital funds. This amount represents expenditures made directly by ,the Municipality on extension of the sew- age system. On October 19, 1962, the Munici- pality entered into an agreement with the Ontario Water Resources Commission author- izing an expenditure up to $200,901.00 for sewage works. No mention was contained in the agreement. regarding reimbursement" to the Municipality for the amount of $8,470.74 previously expended and the possibility exists that the municipality will not recover this amount. (3) Local utilities have been taxed for school pur- ASSETS General Fixed (as per Schedule 18) $ 155,600.96 Due from Schools (for Debentures) Public and Continuation .. ... $ 168,044,09 Collegiate and High 54, poses and such taxes were paid to these boards rather than' being credited to general funds. (c) The audits have been conducted in accordance with the instructions of the Department of Municipal Affairs. (d) In our opinion, subject to the exceptions referred to in (b) above and with the exception of the statement of revenue and expenditure of the Sea - forth Community Centre and of the electric light and power statement of revenue and expenditure referred to below, the attached balance sheets of the Municipality of the Town of Seaforth and of its affiliated boards and the related statements of revenue and expenditure present fairly the finan- cial position of the Municipality and the respective boards as at December 31, 1962, and the results of their operations for the year ended on that date. Because of the lack of adequate ,control of the revenue of the Seaforth Community Centre we are not in a position to express an opinion on that board's statement of revenue and expenditure for the year ended December 31, 1962, other than to report that it is in agreement with the books of the board.. In accordance with standard accounting practice laid down by the Hydro -Electric Power Commis- sion of Ontario, the accompanying electric light and power statement .of revenue and expenditure reflects revenue for the twelve months ended No- vember 30, 1962, and electrical energy purchased represents the cost of power for the twelve months ended November 30,. 1962.
