ittle Inn sign meets standar
By Helen Owen
When Bayfield Village
Council met on February 7,
the Reeve announced that
the matter of the placement
of the Little Inn sign had now
been resolved satisfactorily.
Councillor Morley
reported that the checking,
and any necessary
maintenance, of fire ex-
tinguishers was in hand, and
that a meeting had taken
place with the Association of
Yachters. Fee schedules and
details of council's respon-
sibilities had been presented
for consideration of the
members, who would report
back in due course. He added
that the proposals which had
been made would not be a
cost to taxpayers and should
result in some revenue
The Road Superintendent
presented copies of the pro-
posed Works Department
budget for consideration and
comment at the next
meeting.
At the suggestion of Coun-
cillor Huffman, it was
agreed that "No Parking"
notices should be displayed
in Fry Street where the
residents were encountering
problems.
The Reeve read a letter
from Clinton requesting
council's support in connec-
tion with appeals inade
against rate assessments.
After some discussion it was
agreed to support this as it
would enable council to be
aware of such appeals being
made. It was also considered
that such involvement might
work both ways, and con-
trary to past practice, en-
sure that the municipality
had prior knowledge.
A request for a donation
from the St. John Atn-
bulance was to be considered
in the preparation of the
budget. An appeal for a
donation had also been
received from the 'Town and
Country Homemakers, and
it was decided that a
representative should be
asked to make a presenta-
tion to council in order that
all members could be fully
informed of the policies, ac-
tivities and funding of the
organization.
The Clerk informed coun-
cil that a copy of Bill 179 was
available in the office.
referred to wages
salaries with which
municipalities
rangements concurred.
In view of
This
and
the
a r -
serious ac-
cidents which had occurred
in inulti-storey buildings, the
ilunistry of housing had
issued information with
regard to safety measures.
Since the only structure in
the village likely to come
within the terms outlined
was the Cunuriunity Centre
the details were being refer-
red to the l'ommuruty Centre
Board. The Clerk also in-
formed council that the in-
stallation and supply of win-
dows for the centre had been
agreed, and the whole pro-
ject would be carried out
without cost to the tax -
'Myers.
Information had been
received regarding a pro-
gram which carried a 90 per-
cent wage subsidy. It was
agreed that this should be in-
vestigated as it might com-
bine the provision of employ-
ment with the achievement
of village projects.
Mr. Harvey Godbolt made
an alternative presentation
to council in connection with
a project which had already
been tabled. After careful
consideration, particularly
with regard to long term
potential, the request was re-
jected.
Referring to the Heritage
5
District Bylaw and the grant
schemes available, the
Reeve indicated that this
was likely to present the ad-
ministration with requests
for assistance in making ap-
plications. A seminar on
Heritage Conservation
Grants was to be held in
March, and it was agreed
that the Clerk -Treasurer
should attend in order that
the village council had clear-
ly defined information for
the benefit of those wishing
to undertake such projects.
The next meeting will be
on February' 21 at 7 p.rn.

Kilbarchan Nursaing Home

Bayfield's Heritage buildings
The store became a home
liy Doris Hunter
Many remember the
immaculate store, with its
ice cream parlour upstairs
and the village library along
the shelves on the street wall
and overflowing up the
staircase.
A turn of the century
house, the attractive store
windows have been
preserved, with the original
canopy over the diagonally
placed doorway are well
cared for by the present
owners former Reeve Ed
and Flory Oddleifson. Flory
has kept a scrapbook of
developments and events at
"The Storehouse," which is
the appropriate name, they
have given the building.
Bayfield at that time was a
thriving community both in
the winter and as a
fashionable summer resort.
The Edwarr'an Era had
arrived and elegant Queen
Alexandra's favourite
colour, gave us the Mauve
Decade. The Boer War was
in the news, and people sang
such songs as Tell Me Pretty
Maiden, Shine on Harvest
Moon and I Wonder Who's
Kissing Her Now. It was the
hill before the storm of the
first world war.
This House as well as the
Rogers Home pictured last
week are in the Heritage
Designated Plan of the
village. The contribution of
each period in our history is
what gives our village its
architectural heritage.
Mr. and Mrs. Oddleifson
entertained a large group of
their friends at a beautiful
party on the evening of
Valentine's Day. A bit of an
institution now, Flory's
unique invitations and the
fascinating examples of her
many talents are enjoyed by
all, and the genial host who
has served this village so
well, insures a warm
welcome for their guests.
