We have this much in common with the other busineseren in
Bayfield, that we have found the "going" very skinny of late,
and like some of them, have had to pull in the horns end take
up another notch in the belt.

Despite a real good try, we just couldn't find enough adver-
tising revenue to keep The Bulletin in the black during March
and April. Having no financial cushion to fall back on, there
was no choice but to cut town to monthly issues during March
and Ai.ril this year, comira back as a regular weekly on May
20.
Our subscribers, bless le= ell, have been very patient abou
the whole thing, and will be duly credited with the extra time
to which their paid aubscriptions entitles them. In the mean-
tine, we'll have time to scout around and line up enough bus-
iness of a continuing and permanent nature to ensure public-
ation on a regular weekly basis from May on. At least that is
the hone to which we cling, and it does not seem to be a for-
lorn one.
Starting a weekly newspaper from nothing, with nothing, is
considered impossible by almost everyone. The impossible is
just taking a little longer than we anticipatei.

All that silent fishermen know
Who rest in the calm
And the farmer at the intense
Whiteness of dawn;
This is the peace of the village •
We return to.
And the primeval wind slashing the
water
Into rumbling hunch-backed waves,
Gusts through the branches spread out
Above the streets, giving both the
bending couple
Treading the rain-soaked beach,
And the round teared face pressed
against the glass,
The awesome rythma to hear
Of nature in dark, and endless motion.
Between, life in a generous
Simplicity breathes the familiar,
The beautiful, places into
A childhood remembered,
And, later, into a wisdom.
Gwilym Archer

He signs himself:
"Hopefully".
(Ed.Note: We too are
hopeful, but busin-
ess conditions here
have forced us to
issue once monthly
during March and
April, resuming the
weekly issues at the
middle of May, prob-
ably the 20th. All
subscriptions will
be advanced the
appropriate number
of weeks. We hope to
follow right through
on a weekly tasis
from May right thr-
ough to next summer.)
Also received with
thanks was a cheery
note from Mrs.R.G.
Hunter, who has been
pining for news of
dear old Bayfield,
wondering nervously
if the place has beer

We can only reply we
are publishing only
WEAKLY until May 20.

THE SCHOOL QUESTION
Village council has noted a seeming lack of concern on the
part of local residents over the possible fate of our elem-
entary school, and the lac!: of concern which really hurts is
that which seems to be exhicited 'by Stanley Township Area
School 7oard. Is it possible that some smouldering resentment
over the re-incorporation of Bayfield is giving us a taste of
what has become known as "backlash?"
The often expressed wish of Bayfield to contiaae the school
here seems to be getting brushed off, and village council, in
the latest session, passed unanimously the following resolut-
ion:
"1. That this council of the Village of Bayfield, having
considered the wishes of an overwhelming majority of the rate-
payers and parents of this village, and a large majority of
the ratepayers and parents of former school sections 3 and 4,
does declare itself strongly opposed to the removal of the
elementary school facilities from Bayfield;
"2 Further, because of geographic conditions, economic fact-
ors and population trends, it would seem in the interests cf
the whole Stanley Township School Area that two rooms should
be added to the present, comparatively new, hayfield School,
to provide a four-roomed school unit for Bayfield and the.wes-
tern portion of Stanley Township, and this council recommends
that such action be taken.
It would be a good idea if local ratepayers and parents
not only of Bayfield but of western Stanley Township, would
put their opf;nions on paper and mail them to council here.
There's lots of fight in conncil, and no doubt ammunition
from the ratepayers, especially township ratepayers, woulcl be
most welcome.
In the long run, we hardly expect our neighbors to cut off
their noses to spite their faces, as the old saying ?G CB.
