Centennial Year
Last week this space was occupied by a messagee
from the local Centennial Committee, consisting
mainly of a number of suggestions as to how the
residents of our fair village might make it even
fairer yet in honor of the country's centennial
year.
Most of the suggestions were sound and constrr
uctive, and could be accomplished without any big
expense being involved. As usual, places of bus-
iness are targets for gratuitous advice about how
to smarten up, and, the implication is, profit
handsomely.
There is room for improvement as suggested.
There is also room for improvement in the relat-
ionship between residents and businesses in the
community. The businessmen are repeatedly asked
to support community affairs with donations and
gifts in kind or cash. Unfortunately, it is too
often that the requests come from people whose
den of citizenship sends them to an outside
community to spend the food, meat and gasoline
dollars.
The dormant Bayfield Businessmen's Associat-
ion started off a couple of years ago with some
good objectives and achieved a number of them,
before it fell asleep. Lighting was improved on
the main street, signs indicating the business
section were obtained, support was given the
push for improvement of the harbor.No meeting
of the group has been called in a dog's age.
Surely this is not because there is nothing left
to be done.
It seems to us that if the local businessmen
had stronger evidence, tangible evidence that
the local residents would back them up, they
would be ecouraged to take a few more bulls by
the horns and undertake some dynamic programs.
It is to be hoped that the annual meeting of
the Bayfield Ratepayers' Association in the
village hall July 30 will be productive of some
guide lines for council as suggested in the
Centennial Committee's message.
It is amusing in a wry sort of way to reflect
that at least one member of council, faced with
a reasonable request for information about pub-
lic business,declared that he "would not be dic-
tated to" by such a group. What council needs is
exactly that, some "eye ball-to-eye ball" dic-
tation from the ratepayers duly assembled.
Certainly our councillors do a great deal of
work, and good work too, with scant recompense
and plenty of abuse. However, none should lose
sight, of the fact he is elected by the ratepayers
to carry out their wishes. The ratepayers have an
equal obligation to make their wants clearly kno-
wn, bearing in mind that calling the tune invol-
ves paying the piper too.
