Baker also reported that a tree had been removed on Main St. and more tree work would be undertaken as time permits. Hensall's new garbage collection system was initiated Friday with generally good results.

Another tour on Saturday found no one had set out garbage on that day. which was the usual pickup day. Reeve harry Klungel said he had received no complaints, and when asked if he had received any com- pliments, quickly replied that municipal officials never get compliments. Works superintendent John Baker said the garbage contractor had found that four residents had placed their garbage in the wrong place and each had been visited during the pickup and told of the error. "Ile was quite happy on the whole." 1`i DRAW FOR WINNERS — Kathy Neilands (left) and Bonnie Rowcliffe drew the winning tickets in the Hensall Kinettes money draw.
