I think it is unfair to the bus driver, Cecil Garniss from Luck- now, who did a superb job of keeping that' bus rolling' on the road. His only problem was that he was directed 75 miles out of his way to pick up people who weren't even there on time. He waited as much as. 20 minutes at a place. I want to also commend the other driver from our district, Jack Smith froin Monkton, for the speed with which he got 'assistance when his bus temporarily stopped on, High- way 401.' I rode 'on both buses, and while Mr. Smith's was a newer bus and had the advantage of being able to' tilt the seats back, we rode all the way back to Lucknow, direct from Ottawa, 'on Montgomery's bus, driven by.Mr. Garniss, and we had a comfortable ride and made excellent time. These people who complained because they didn't get 'there; on time should rememlief-the -NFU executive were still there speaking on their behalf. But then, these are the same people who, if you did give them back half the money they lost, would still. be grumbling because you didn't give them 'the other half. Our hats .off to Cecil and lack -they both did a great job. Mrs. Charles Wilkins, Lucknow, President, Local 335, N.F.U. Wawanosh Lady Passes At Age 77 MRS. VICTOR ERRINGTON Mrs. Victor Errington of R. R. 2 Auburn passed away at University Hospital, London on Tuesday, July 13th.. 'She was 77.

They resided all their life in West Wawanosh Township and where they celebrat- ed their. 50th wedding anniversary in 1970. Mr. Errington 'passed away in March, 1973. Mrs. Errington' is survived by two daughters and three sons, Mrs. John (Violet). Durnin' of R. R. 3 Auburn; James Errirtgton and Harold Errington, both of R. R. 2 Auburn; .Ross Errington of St. Helens; Mrs. Ivan (Jean) Hender- son of Weston; nineteen grand- children and sixteen great grand- children; one sister Mrs. Thomas (Hazel) Webster of Dungannon and one brother Harvey Alton of R.R. 2,' Auburn. - The funeral service was held at MacKenzie Memorial Chapel, , Lucknow on Friday, July 16th.

ARENA 0.K: CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 stagnant and very warm. These conditions are ideal for the propa- gation of rot in the timber. We 'recommend that grilles be placed in the vertical faces of the enclosure at both ends and at three locations in the floor of the enclosure along • its length. This will provide adequate air circula- tion to retard any possible rotting. STEEL SPLICE PLATES Many of the steel plates reinforc- ing the trussed frames inside of the building .are now rusted, All steel plates within the building should be' cleaned of loose rust and , painted with rust inhibitor paint, BUILDING EXTERIOR • No evidence of . any major, deterioration could be found, but it was noted that the paint finish 'on the lower sections of the steel sheeting, ,has peeled off in many locations. k . We•suggest that this be repaint- ed 'as soon as possible to minimize rusting. . On the north face, at the north east corner, snow clearing equip- ment has , slightly. damaged ,the sheeting • and timber stringers between frames 29 and 31. At this location, 'the main frames were' checked' and no damage was found. We ' suggest that the sheeting and stringers be replaced. CONCLUSION On the basis of the writer's inspection, little or no significant structural deterioration has taken place since the' building was extensively renovated in 1969. It is our opinion that the building can still safely withstand all snow • and wind loads specified by the Ontario Building Code and should 'give many more yeat.s of service providing normal maintenance' is carried' Ont.
