it is not often that the pasSing of tion as one of the outstanding -muni -
a public figiiie -leaves such a sense of ' cipal" officials in the area.
In his capacity as clerk -treasurer,
Mr., Chesney •came into contact with
citizens throughout hiS own and
neighboring municipalities and was
thoroughly familiar „with the people
and problems of fi,1-1e district, He ab-,.
hored bureacracy and all it stands
for, and regarded his office as a ve-
hicle for service th any citizen requir-
ing help. -
His passing is a great loss, not only
tains family and the xnunicipality he
served so long, but also to those many
people in various walks of life, who
enjoyed his friendship, his quiet
humor,and who admired the unas-
suming manner in Which he went
about s • day-to-day tasks.
• loss among so many pebple in differ-
ent areas of influence as did the sud-
den , death on Friday of Edwin
Chesney, elerk-treasUrer of Tucker -
smith -Township, at the age of fifty-
two. -
Entering into a study Of municipal
affairs in the early thirties, Mr. glies-
ney became treasurer of the township
at a time when Ahe concept of the
Municipal official was undergoing a
distinct change, particularly with re-
spect to the work involved and the
responsibilities which were part and;
parcel _of such office. His, ability, his
common sense, his appreciation of
his responsibility to the municipality,
he served, early earned him recogni-
• Perhaps t e H ity
We think it has been pretty hot
during August, and we are right.
The weather specialists can produce
figures .to show just how hot it has
been.
Not satisfied with the assurances
• of the weatherman, the Globe and
Mail has carried on some research of
• its own. Perhaps with tongue in
cheek it too'agrees. in these words
• that August has been a scorcher.
"The heat wave (say the forecast-
• ers) is over. So is • August; but for
the 31 days it was with us, it made
quite a showing, with a mean maxi-
mum (average high) of 84 for the
course. "Just • never saw anything
like it,'" said • denizens hereabouts.
Maybe they're young. August. this
year barely scraped by with a record
over the 83.9 mean maxinium in 1916—
Yes, but July this year was hot, too
--a mean maximum for thp month of
82.5. Yes again, but July in 1916 roll-
ed a mean maximum of 86.6. (Re-
member when they wore heavy yests -
and high starched collars, and had no
air conditioning?). -
"But we needn't go back so far.
Take 1955, when August had 24-
hour mean of 73.7. True, that was
about half a degree under August's
. mean this year (either 74.1 or 74.2 at
this writing . But'July this year had
a mean of only 72.5_against 75.8 for
July four years ago. Not only that,
but June in 1955 had a mean of 68.2
against 67.9 this year. So all in all
1955 still holds the laurels for the hot-
test summer. It was, in fact, a cork-
er. (Editor's note: Anyone -who-i-e-
members the hot Weather during
•forth's Old Boys' Reunion that year
• will be in complete agreement, with
that statement).
"There is still September, also
mostly in the summer solstice, and
• this. on as. -some goOd high- ma,rks
to shoo at, such as tbe inean_maxi-
mum of 78.7 in 1921 and the 76.9.. of
4881. 'Curiously enough,September
<hot.. 1955 only Managed a mean
maximum pf 170.8and in 1910 of 71.2.
. .
Whatever it does this year, people
will still be saying that August had
six day -sin the 907s, that July-liad one;
.plus several in the high 80's. Add the
golfing Score predilection to - these
figures, :And it was hot,- see? •
"The funnyTart about heat waves, ,
of .,course, IS that they are deplored,
alike in preseriCe .and in.absence. Giv-
_
en a cool, cloudy slimmer, people howl ,
for - the sun. Even last Year there
were-moanings iii.,,„.theSe :environs
about the ,;yet. „July. and ,August
rolled lip ',mean. maximums Of 794.
and 784 respectively, a merewhisker
away fromC the average for both
:mbnths. . So it just goes to show."
Perhaps the moral of all 'these G
and M statistics .is that it isn't the
heat,' its the
Farm Costs Rise
'Farmers are facing increasing

if this continued to thelpar endit

the large'PortiOn of the advance was ;
