Two criminal code charges were laid, and one missing person was investigated. Because of the great number of snowmobiles operating in the area, the OPP would like to remind them of the following requiremeots: Speed: No person shall drive a Motorized Snow Vehicle at a greater rate of speed than (a) 20 kilometres per hour on a highway where the posted speed limit is 50 ItilomOtres per hour or less, Or in any public park or exhibition grounds; or (b) 50 kilometres per hour on a highway where the posted speed limit is greater than 50 kilometres per hour, Or on a Public Trail. Trespassing:. Every person who Knowingly or Unknowingly trespasses-on land while, operating a Motorized Snow Vehicle is guilty of an offence, and liable to a fine of not more than $500.Q0. Permission to be on some persons land, must be in writing and signed by the occupier of the land. Correcting a mistake made about 100 years ago isn't 'always easy, according to Bill Mungall. Mungall, as resources manager of the Ausable-Bayfield Conser- vation Authority, is over- seeing the erosion control work being done in Grand Bend along the Ausable River. The work, which began January 5, is talking place in the back yards of homes facing Gill Road. One can view the work from the Green Acres subdivision. The construction company expects to finish driving piles into the river bank this week, and the clean up and landscaping will be done in warm weather, and should be finished by July. Large steel piles about 12 feet long are being driven into the river to prevent the bank from eroding further. , Work is being done from a floating barge in, the' river. A few years ago the con- servation authority began the' work using gabian baskets--large wiring filled with rocks. However the high price of rocks andthe high transportation cotst have made the authority turn to the steel piles. Mungall, originally a native of Hamilton, said he was surprised to find that the steel was made in West Germany. The large piles are interlocking, and then welded and anchored into the bank. The cost of the steel piles makes up 52 percent of the cost of the total project. The total cost of the Grand Bend erosion control project is estimated to be $9,5,000— about one-third of the Ausable Bayfield Con- servation Authority's budget for the year. The Ministry of Natural Resources is paying 85 percent of the cost, while landowners on whose property the work is being done will pay 131/2 percent. The other one and a half percent is being paid by the 32 municipalities within the conservation authority. Mungall says the work is necessary because the cut made from the old Ausable River through to the Lake. Huron in Grand Bend in 1892 caused the old river to erode deeper into the ground, giving it very high banks, Over the years the steep banks have continued to erode into the river, Homeowners were worried about losing property, and some feared foundations would be undetermined. Mungall says that in the future they hope to avoid problems like this. He wants to use some "Preventative medicine" and the con- servation authority is preparing a leaflet advising landowners along rivers on what kind of vegetation to grow to prevent erosion. There wilLalso be informatin given on. putting out' drain tiles and storm tiles to prevent bank erosion. • The conservation authority would like to have ,land use and building regulations to prevent, river bank erosion problems, Mungall says.

Mrs. Olive Horner was hostess and she and Mrs. Olive Steeper were in charge of the worship service, Following hymn singing, scripture reading and prayers, Mrs.. Steeper read an interesting story oh "Be My Valentine," in which she traced the history of sending messages on. Valentine's Day. Some sent in the 1800's are on display in the Montreal museum, Mrs. Horner read an article on Japan, which told of the experiences of Rob Witmer there, before returning to Canada, He, and his Japanese wife, Keiko, and their two children following studies here, plan to return to Japan this fall where only about 1 percent of the population is Christian. The president, Mrs: Iva Lagerwerf, read "Refugee Problem Plagues Pakistan." The roll call was answered by an exhcange , of home- made Valentines. Letters of appreciation were read from the recipients of cookies to the cancer cupboard, and .from Mrs. Ethel Eagleson for remembering her at Christmas. Plans were completed for the variety supper on February 15, when the Rev. E. Hancock, Parkhill, will be showing his slides of Australia. It was decided to purchase new carpeting and drapes for the washrooms. The hostess and Evelyn Curts served a tasty lunch and a social time was enjoyed.

A group of com- muters to London , are looking into the possibilities of buying a van, and creating a "van-pool." Don Southcott says that there are about 11 people / interested in travelling to London together. Southcott says the3', would like to. purchase a 12 passenger van, and the government will give them some assistance. They would not require a special licence because it is a non- profit group, and there would be no excise tax on the purchase of the vehicle. The Southcott Pines Park Association which is the property owners' organization would sponsor the purchase of the van. Southcott said that there are six people who travel to downtown London to work, and five who go to East London. If there were other people in the Grand Bend Area who were interested in going to London, they might consider purchasing two "thcott says that people vans: ou like the idea of -a van pool because it may mean they would only have to own one car per family rather than two. It also cuts down on vehicle insurance costs, and it means less headaches for driving in winter weather; he added. As the plans are now the van would leave Grand Bend at 7:00 a.m. and return at 4:30 p.m. I ADAMS iHooting & Cooling :=,* i• Heating Systems of All Types History of Valentines studied by LICW POMICIPOCTIOn ® Th•CaMI ler pe/ be. 3, 1940 F
