. plained that Mr. Dymond was

Undaunted,' Reeve Profit
said- it was probably in-
convenient for .some other

found time to attend.

,.also-a•isent. There was not a
report from the fire de'par-
:.trrient, either, •
_.Councillor Elsa Hydon
asked if council should also
request Ralph Kingswell to
appear before council on the -
second Monday. of• each
month'. Reeve Profit ad-
mitted this would be quite in
order.
Councillor Jim Peters said
that while council had agreed
the officers. should attend the
council meeting mid -month;
he. also hoped council Would
hear their reports early in the•
'agenda so that if they had
other duties to attendto in the

free to leave early.

Clifford brought in -a report

In- case you didn't know it, Santa's, a guy with a lot of style. It's just that
he'd" been wearing that same old red suit for so long that the inner man
never really got a chance to shine through. Until he came to
Captain's Quarters. Now Santa's got .a distinguished new
image more becoming a man of such high spirits and renown.
And that suits him just;°fine. For yourself. Or for a friend.
Try out. Captain's Quarters for size this Christmas.
He comes highly recommended by a famous world traveller~.
