A CUT • ABOVE THE PEST,
Proclamation
of
Town of Clinton
In the past two years it has become
known to council that the existing Town
Hall building is in a very poor state of
repair. It will therefore be necessary to
spend considerable sums of money to
correct this situation if the building is to
be maintained for the indefinite future.
Council engaged the services of James
F. MacLaren Associates to do an
evaluation of the condition of the Town
Hall as regards to the safety of the
building. Their report conveyed to us that
although the building is not in any im-
minent danger of collapse, extensive
repair work should be undertaken im-
mediately to prevent irreparable
deterioration from taking place.
The firm of Tillman & Lamb was sub-
sequently engaged to pursue the
possibility of alternatives. After several
meetings at which council and Mr. Lamb
discussed a number of these alternatives,
Mr. Lamb was asked to prepare a more
comprehensive study and supply
drawings and estimates etc. The results
of this study were presented by Mr. Lamb
at a public meeting held at the Town Hall
on Nov. 13.
The present council are unanimously in
favour of a renewal program being under-
taken whereby several avenues will be
explored to determine what grants or
cost sharing may be available so as to
determine what net cost to the taxpayer
may be involved. The following ballot will
therefore be included in the election of
December 2,19M to determine some con-
sensus of opinion from ratepayers on this
issue:
On the question of
the future of the
present Town Hall,
(ARE YOU IN FAVOUR
OF PRESERVING THE
EXISTING TOWN
HALL.)

For years, doing the dishes has been one
of life's necessary evils.
But now, because of automatic electric
dishwashers, more and more people are
finding out it's an unnecessary evil„
Consider some of the things an automatic
eledtric dishwasher can save wives from.
Things like; the dreary routine of washing
and drying pots and dishes day after
day; the worry of dishpan hands, the
doing dishes' that could be spent in a
hundred happier ways,
Consider this, too. A lot of dirty dishes
come with the joys Of ChriMmas. So what
could make a more timely gift than an
automatic electric dishwasher?
See your appliance dealer soon about
the hew automatic electric dishwashers.
They're not called The Wifesavers for
nothing, you knOW.
