HIS PARENTS DEATH
Joseph Quinn, aged 36,
walked into the London Recruiting
Centre Of the R. Q. A. F, at London
over the week-end and enlisted in
ground crew,
When the formalities were Over,
Quinn heaved a sigh of relief. "I've
wanted to do this for a long timef" he
told a recruiting officer. "Now we are
all together."
Then, in a few brief sentences, the
recruit from Clifford, Ont., told of
personal hatred of an entire family for
the German Luftwaffe, and their de-
termination to settle an old score,
During a Nazi night raid over
Clydebank, Scotland, one dark night
last year, a bomb dropped on the home
of Daniel and Mary Elizabeth Quinn
near by. The elderly couple were in-
stantly killed..
Since then, the five sons of the
Scottish couple have joined the R.A.
F. or R, C. A, F. Daniel, John, James
and Arthur, all pilots in the last war,

cessful attempts to enter air crew in

William, has now donned air force
blue as a member of ground crew.
EAST WAWANOSH
TAX RATE SET
Township Rate Same As Last Year
County Rate Up 1/2 Mill
Cohncil met on August 4th with all
the members present, Reeve Redmond
presiding. Minutes of last meeting
were read and approved.
The Wingham branch of the Can-
adian Legion through C. R. Coultes,
stated they were preparing a list of
all those in this vicinity who were
now in the armed forces and in active
service, and asked the co-operation of
Council in procuring the names of
all those similarily engaged in war
work from the township. Mr. Coultes
was assured that Council would glad-
ly co-operate in this matter and that
the necessary information Would be
supplied jiortly.
As formerly $15.00 was voted the
Belgrave School Fair and $20.00 .to
Blyth Fall Fair. The township rate
was set at 1 5/10 mills the same as last
year, County rate 7 7/10 mills. An
increase of one-half mill and as all
school sections are expected to have an
increase in their requisitions, an in-
crease in taxation is apparently inevi-
table. Owing to the delinquency of a
number of ratepayers in failing to pay
their taxes of previous years, Council
for the first time in many years are
compelled to borrow sufficient money
to finance the township along 4l1 the
1942 taxes are collected, a By-law in
this connection being read and passed.
Accounts to the amount of $335.37
were ordered paid after which Council
adjourned to meet again on Tuesday,
September 8th. A, Porterfield, Clerk.
