CROP REPORT
Rain storms oeucrring last
Saturday, Aug. 4th and through
this weak :have damaged the
late grain crops in the County
considerably. Many excellent
fields of oats have been nearly
flattened by the stories. This of
course makes harvesting diffi-
cult and reduces the yields. Ap-
proximately one-half of the
wheat crop in the southern 'half
of the !County has been thresh-
ed, While there are still a few
farmers finishing haying oper-
ations. Hay aftermath and past-
ure continued to make rapid
growth.

Sewer Extension
Again Fails to Pass
"To clear the alt" councillors
agreed to ,another vote on the
second reading of (bylaw 583,
the sewer bylaw. The result was
as noted previously.
"It is up to the people,"
'Councillor Kellar remarked. "If
council can't do what is proper,
kick us out at the end of the
year,"
Mayor (McMaster said he was
impressed with Mr. Drew, man-
ager of the !Midwestern Develop-
ment Association, and expected
he would 'meet councils soon.
The Mayor suggested a rock-
and-roll dance to raise funds
for the (hockey deficit.
Councillors thought it a good
idea, but said the association
with 415 in the (bank and '$•21500
deficit, :was in no position to
back such a venture.
Mr. 'Longstaff had informed
council that (hockey debt had
been reduced from • $2,789 to
$2,5,94, with a bank balance of
$16.78 remaining. Five local
men are on the !committee and
had 'been threatened with suit
if some of the accounts were not
paid.
When it was suggested the
committee put on' benefit events
Mr. ILongstaff replied three or-
ganizations !had been unable to
supply five helpers for n recent
bingo and it seemed impossible
to get anyone interested.
A lob of time, effort and per-
sonal 'money had been donated
by the 'committee without any
cost to the !town, Mr. Langstaff
said. Bingo results were! poor
and the committee is not func-
tioning too well now.
Faced with a four -mill tax in-
crease, and critical of Detroit
hockey club having not only
given ,Seaforth no support but
taking away their star coach,
council hoisted further discus-
sion of hockey relief for a
month.
Mayor !McMaster called atten-
tion to a question in the Muni-
cipal World, sent by Seafoi'th
for information as to the legal-
ity of issuing a debenture to
pay off the arena debt.
Frank Kling showed council
drawings of proposekl stairs for
the town hall. This might use
space allotted dor rest rooms,
but he thought the town hall
was not a suitable place for
public washrooms.
The work will be done by lo-
cal men under supervision of
Frank Kling. Reeve' Scoins said
there might be 'dissension if
work were not let by tender.
However, council decided they
wanted to do job piecemeal,
and to call for tenders meant
having detailed specifications.
!Councillor !Christie insisted
the property committee chair-
nnan be consulted about every
move. The town still owns the
building. You would be ,giving
240,000 away for every !tont,
dick and harry to fool with, he
said.
John (Holland, president of
,Seaforbh branch of the Canadian
Legion, asked •council to provide
a clear title to the property at
corner of Main and Huron
streets, given to legion some
years ago for a hall. The Legion
now !plans to build a hall. The
(building size is tentatively 40 x
80' same as 'Clinton's and
would he an asset to the town
and a credit to Main street. It
would be used for banquets and
social events: Bob !Smith also
spoke for the Legion.
;Bowlers on the council were
assured that access to rohe bowl-
ing green would not be Shut off.
!Councillors Kellar and (Christ-
ie kept after the Mayor why the
sewer was not engineered to
the end of West •Goderioh st.
The Mayor said the engineer
claimed a seven -foot drop in the
last two :blocks.
!Councillor !Christie said the
engineer must be mistaken.
'S'tanding at the church corner,
one could still see the bumper
of a oar 'clear (beyond the town
limits.
!Minutes of a •court of revi-
sion held Aug. 10.th showed one
appeal. Assessment of J. J.
Cleary set at 43,340, a reduc-
tion of !$1,000 on !building.

long •church history we have

facts about the work among the

ege for our W.M.S. to be able

done to the Indians in that pro -
vine. Presbyterians and Mebho-
diet ministers helped in the
early work. Tlhel establishment
of Indian Residential Schools

TALK
SINCE 1946 the average price of Canadian steel
rolling mill prodttcts has gone up a bit more than
70 per cent.
But the price of scrap, a vital raw material for the
steelmaker, went up 181 per cent in the same period;
and the price of labour in the primary iron and steel
industry by 130 per cent.
Nearly all other prices, including the price of labour,
have risen higher and faster than have steel prices in
the post-war period.
