foresight is sometimes
preferable to hindsight.
The LACAC chairman
submitted a letter of
resignation from that
position. The council
deferred acceptance until
a meeting of the council is
held to consider the
matter.
Council has passed a
resolution to indicate that
it will not,at present
accept appications for
any more sub -divisions in
the village while there is
a good supply of serviced
lots available.
Garbage collection was
discussed and some

Regarding toilet

it was suggested that the
village clerk write to
Mrs. Wilma Bolton of
Canada Manpower to say
that the council has made
provision in its budget for
the $2,000 earmarked to
pay for labor in installing
toilet facilities which was
promised.

done in education.
Travelling to India via
Paris and Tehran,
Brigadier Smith and his
wife enjoyed a tourist trip
to the Taj Maha! and
other standard features.
However, rather than
give a travelogue, he
presented in a delightful
way his personal im-
pressions of India and its
people.
Well qualified to talk
about people by virtue. of.
his training and ex-
perience, Brigadier
Smith was born and
educated in Toronto,
graduating from the
University of Toronto in
1934 in medicine. Taking
his M.A. with Dr. Best he
then joined the regular
army medical service in
1935, having already
served 10 years in the
militia. His long history
, in the forces included the
navy and the air force. In
Canada he served on the
west coast, in Ottawa,
Camp Borden and other
areas. Overseas for six
years during the war, he
also served one year in
Korea and a year in
Australia.
Honored with a Men-
tion in Dispatches at
Dieppe, he also received
the OBE for service in
North-West Europe. For
service in Korea he was
awarded the American
Legion of Merit and_ ' the
CBE. Retiring with the
rank of Brigadier in 1964,
he and his wife Edith
bought a beautiful old
home in Bayfield and
became active and
distinguished citizens.
Imbued with Kipling
and Henty stories of
India, during childhood,
followed up with ex-
per-ience- in the Canadian -
army with Britishers who
had served in .India, he
they experienced was
cashing a traveller's
cheque. Usually done at a
bank, it required four to
six people and about 20
minutes during which
time each employee
studied the cheque and
okayed credentials.
The caste system is just
about as rigid as ever.
Untouchables, com-
prising 40 percent of the
population have a dif-
ficult life. They can
receive an education but
they sit outside the
classrooms where other
superior castes are being
taught. Although pay of $1
is good for them, the
barriers are breaking
down in the large cities to
some extent due to the
huge numbers of people.
But an untouchable
educated and holding a
good job in the city would
immediately revert again
to his former status on
return to his village.
Another problem in-
volved untouchables who
were being dispossessed
of their land.
A farmer in India can
make a good living on 65
acres of land with
modern machinery.
Especially in the cities,
they found the hordes of
people almost in-
timidating. Every place,
every street was jam-
packed with people, but
they_ were . found - to be
generally happy and
friendly.
On their tour of the
North-East border of
India, near Nepal and
Tibet they passed
through many road-
blocks but encountered
no serious problems.
They were only five miles
from the border where
60;000. troops- were
