Residents in
south Hensall
to wait for water
HENSALL - The households on
Highway 4 south of Hensall are
going to have to rely on their wells
for a while longer before they can
be hooked up to the village's water
distribution system. A funding re-
quest to the ministry of the envi-
ronment to extend a pipeline to
those properties has been denied.
Reeve Jim Robinson explained at
• Monday's council meeting that the
request to the ministry to pay up to
85 percent of the $60,000 pipeline
failed to meet with approval. He
said there was little council could
do but notify those ratepayers of
the village's regret that the project
will not be going ahead yet.
Although. MPP Jack Riddell's of-
fice was to be contacted about Hen-
sall's dissatisfaction over the deci-
sion, clerk -treasurer Luanne Phair
said she had been told the first
course of action is to re -submit the
grant application in the hope funds
become available in the future.
Tenders for the reconstruction of
the Verlinde Drain were opened at
Hay Township Monday evening,
but the Hensall Co -Op has already
asked that work on a culvert cross-
ing the railway near its property be
delayed. The Verlinde Drain pro-
ject is aimed at improving drainage
in both Hensall and Hay Township
with the plans of the village's fu-
ture expansion plans kept in mind.
Consulting engineers on the pro-
ject, B.M. Ross, recommended that
the Co -Op culvert be replaced at the
same time as the drain upgrade. An
agreement between the Co -Op and

Hensall will share the costs of the
railway crossing culvert.
A letter from B.M. Ross said
the new culvert should be complet-
ed at the same time as the rest of
the drain project in order to prevent
continued drainage problems on ad-
joining properties,
Councillor Cecil Pepper said he
thought the existing culvert was of
sufficient size to handle an im-
proved drain. He said he was under
the impression the culvert upgrade
was for future growth only.
Councillor Butch Hoffman agreed
the economic strain on the Co -Op
must be considered.
"To spend $12-15,000 on that tile
now and we might not even need
that capacity this year..." he said.
"You're talking about a lot of
money," agreed Pepper.
Councillor Peter Groot said the
engineers recommendations should
be taken seriously and also suggest-
ed it might be cheaper in the long
run to have the culvert installed
while the contractors are in the
arca.
The village will be negotiating
with the Co -Op over easements re-
quired for the drain project and to
establish the shared costs.
The Hensall BIA have paid for
half of a S500 bean costume being
prepared in London for the -organiza-
tion. The costume will be used to
promote the village at community
events. It should be ready in mid-
July for viewing by the BIA and the
Ontario Bean Producers.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE FLOWERS?
The beauty and fragrance of flowers serve as a reminder that funeral
services are for the living.
Colorful, tasteful floral arrangements are genally sent by those who
cannot be present but wish to extend their condolances. These floral
pieces help the bereaved to accept that life continues, though the
loved one is no longer present to share in it. As such, flowers serve
both to honor the deceased and to reaffirm the value of life itself.
The sentiment which the flowers represent can travel further- than the
funeral. Floral arrangements may be taken to the gravesite or to the
church. Many hospitals and rest homes will accept gifts of flowers for
their residents and patients.
Or flowers given by friends in honor of the deceased -may be given to
guests as a fragrant reminder of a lite that has -passed and of the val-
ue of their own lives.
Most florists have developed special floral arrangements for funerals.
We also can answer your questions about the value of flowers in fu-
neral services. Please call us if you would like more information.

CAR INSURANCE PREMIUMS?
Don't befooled by no-fault.
No-fault is a quick -fix solution that restricts or eliminates your access to
justice, it totally eliminates benefits to many innocent accident victims. It
significantly reduces benefits to every innocent driver involved in an auto
accident. it's difficult to administer. And there's no evidence that it can
ensure long-term premium savings for Ontario's drivers.
