About 25 people showed up at the meeting in the Hay township hall which was originally intended to allow the quizing of the two reeve candidates and the four per­ sons vying for the three council seats, Wilfred Mousseau questioned the necessity of having four-party lines in the township. Mousseau said if any type of move towards private lines was made ex­ tended service should be granted which could allow Hay subscribers to call Ex­ eter at no cost. Reeve Jack Tinney agreed with Mousseau but that the cost of going to extended service would be quite high. Mousseau countered, say­ ing the cost of calls to com­ munities just outside of the Hay service area was "peanuts.” Tinney agreed, saying the cost might appear to be minimal but that it adds up in the long term. Lloyd Mousseau said the telephone company was fac­ ing the problem of a fewer number of farmhouses and as such, a fewer number of subscribers. The deputy-reeve said un­ less some way can be found to keep people in the rural areas some services might have to be eliminated. The discussion then turned to having an equalized assessment for the telephone system which would eliminate the present system of subscribers who are further away from the company paying more. Both council candidate Tony Bedard and rate-payer Mathew Denomme felt the township should go to an equalized assessment. Tinney told the audience the telephone system had grown by “leaps arid bounds” with councillor Lionel Wilder saying today the system has 4,000 phones in operation compared to 1,- 900 ten years ago. The discussion then turned to fire protection with Wilder saying the township has started to budget for a new fire truck. Hay pays 48 percent of the costs of the Zurich and Area Fire Board, Wilder said. The board was last quoted a price of $40,000 for a new truck Wilder said. Wilfred Mousseau caused a humerous reaction from the crowd as he related the story of a conversation he had with Hensall’s former fire chief a few years ago. According to Mousseau, the chief told they had a say­ ing about township fires; "We haven’t lost a founda­ tion yet.” Considerable discussion took place about stop signs and lines of sight on the township’s road. One gentleman complain­ ed about a farmer who was growing crops right up to the road allowance thereby hindering the view at the corners. Tinney said "there’s only one way to stop them and that’s to take them to court.” Ladies meet at Brinsley By GORDON MORLEY St. Mary’s Anglican Church Guild meeting was held Tuesday night in the basement of the church.
