The following letter from

Many Clinton and area residents saw their first broombafl game last week during Clinton's
, Winter Carnival. Ontario Hydro won the tournament. Shown above is a game between the
champion Bluebirds and Blyth last Wednesday night. The two teams played to a draw.
(News-Record photo)
merly of Clinton) written from
Darwin, Northern Territory,
Australia to Mrs. J.H. Paull of
Bayfield and Brantford is so
interesting that the recipient
gave permission for it to be
used in this column in the hope
that it would encourage people
in this area and the rest of
• Canada to make our land more
beautiful,
"It's hard to believe Canada
is so far away when it's such a
short time since I was there. It
takes awhile to become re-
oriented but with this heat it
doesn't take long to remember
where I am when I wake up, It
has been very hot and humid
since I got back. There are
showers during the night, but
only a couple of torrential
storms during the day, though
we got lots of rumblings of
thunder. The gardens look
beautiful of course. The foliage
is so thick and from my balcony
all I can see is a moss of green -
frangipani, mango trees,
banana trees and the tops of
palm trees behind them..
The air conditioning went off
in our office building last week
for two days and that was just
awful. The windows can't be
opened of course and it was
just about impossible to work.
On Wednesday I had to take
minutes at a Chamber of Com-
merce luncheon meeting as
their regular secretary was on
holiday. We go to the quarterly
meetings as members, but this
was just a council meeting of 15
and a bit confusing for minute
taking, but very interesting.
Everyone in the city is
becoming litter-conscious and
hopefully we may actually get
the place cleaned up soon, for it
has been a disgrace as is the
whole country. We are trying to
institute Singapore methods.
As you may know that city is
now the cleanest in the world
and no one so much as drops a
match in ' the streets, so con-
scious have the people become
of cleanliness, Our "Keep
Australia Beautiful" Council
recently formed a branch in the
Northern Territory and now
has been given a government
grant so we have been able to
hire a permanent office, a
delightful young American girl
who is an ecologist. Carol and I
are the secretaries of that
organization. Kathy the
K.A.B,C. girl is to speak at the
next Chamber of Commerce
meeting, so we are hoping to
gain new members for K.A,B.C.
while their enthusiasm is high.
Now we do the secretarial
work for the Northern
Territory branch of the
Australian Hotel Association.
That is also a recently formed
organization in Darwin. I find
it fascinating to be here while
so many interesting things are
in the growing stage here. Our
population is 40,000 now and
the projected figures are
100,000 by 1980. I don't know
if I'd like that large a city. Our
small town atmosphere is
gradually diminishing."
* Dry sausage, usually in the
salami family, are air-dried for
one to three months. During
this process, 35 to 40 percent of
the moisture is removed and
the casing becomes shriveled
and the texture of the sausage
becomes very firm. This treat-
ment makes cooking and
refrigeration unnecessary
although cool storage is recom-
mended, according to the food
technologists at Union Carbide
Canada Limited.

DON SAID IT BEST WHEN HE ACCEPTED i'My experience and training over the past five
THE PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE years has shown me how to get the Huron
message to Queen's Park —and how to NOMINATION FOR HURON — continue to get things done for Huron"
HERE IS WHAT DON
SOUTHCOTT BELIEVES
"I believe in the worth of the individual, in his right to ,
participate in public affairs, in the responsibility he must assume for
himself. And I believe in responsible free enterprise that government
should not do what people can do for themselves. l believe that Huron
must make its own decisions about its future, that Huron must continue
to refine its planning programs, that we must protect our good farm land,
that we should continue to promote a steady growth in industry and
jobs, that we should pursue our potential for recreation and tourism.
"I believe the future demands that we must strengthen our
local governments, that we must return more decision-making power
to the local level. And I share with you the conviction that we must
preserve our Huron identity and heritage, that we can create an
effective form of regional government within our own Huron boundaries.
"I support the contention of our farm community that we
should continue to reduce the weight of property tax on working
farms, that we should continue the refinement of tax policies to
ensure that productive family farms will pass from father to son, and
that we should help young people Who want to farm,
"I believe that the new Progressive Conservative government
under Bill Davis has shown itself to be sensitive to people, that its
priority is people and that it responds to people.
"And (therefore believe that we must work hard and work
together to keep Huron on the winning Progressive Conservative side,"
