COUNCIL DISCUSSES GARBAGE PROBLEMS The Seaforth Town Council in a special meeting on T ursday,;aven ing, Feb, 26, cortsi:3'`4ed garbage collection and disposal for the town and means of financing it in detail. Present at the meeting were Reeve Sills, Councillors Close, Keat- ing, McMaster, Teall and Ross, also Town Solicitor, H. Glenn Hays Mayor M. A. Reid, presided. • ^ A letter from the merchants' committee suggested that idaylight saving start a month earlier this year, on March 26, instead of April 26 in order to save electric ••Rower. Mayor Reid said the town was us- ing about a thousand kilowatts over its gtota. The daylight saving suggestion will be considered at the regular March meeting. Council granted permission to the Rebekahs to hold a raffle. Council requested the solicitor to consult with the M. O. H. to draft a bylaw licensing all restaurants and establishments where food products are handled, This will be presented at the regular meeting. Mayor Reid asked Reeve Sills as chairman of the property epmmittee, to explain to council' the problems of the town chimp. ••Reeve Sills said there had been rumors' that Tuekersmith, is opposed to Seaforth' dumping' in the town- ship, There was talk that township officials ,had consulted a lawyer in Goderich witha view to preventing Seaforth using the dump at.. Eg- mondville. "The' first thing we have to find out is, catf'ive• dump there?"' said the Reeve. Councillor McMaster said that he and Mr. Hays had inspected' the dump just before the meeting. "Pre- sent method of disposal will have to stop at once", he said, "garbage and refuse are going into the river. Councillors thought it was only during the spring freshets that water reached the dump. At other seasons the river was a long way from the dump. Mr. Hays and Town Clerk Wilson explained that it was necessary for a municipality to obtain permission to dump garbage in another muni- cipality. This permission had been obtained from Tuekersmith. Mayor Reid thought truckersmith could have no grounds for objection to the dump. Councillors suggested Tucker - smith wanted to use the dump also. Reeve Sills said they had used the dump for -a time, but so much wire and concrete had been dumped around that the town had had to stop them. It was said the dump had been used for five years, it was intended for tin cans and was not much filled in yet. It 'was suggested a bulldozer could be used to cover garbage with earth. Mi. Hays said the case applying to dump was Waterloo vs Kitchener in 1918 when an injunction had been granted against the city. The city was held responsible for the contractor who removed the gar- bage. Councillor , Keating suggested burning. It was said 20 to 30 barrels of oil were burned in the dump every summer. Bodies of old cars were most objectionable and had been prohibited. Reeve Sills praised the work Mr. Louis Flildebrand had done at the dump. His part had been kept neat and level Be had covered each load of refuse with a half load of ashes. Councillors said Stratford separ- ated cans and baled them in a press and shipped them to the steel mills at Hamilton. Toronto treated the cans to recover the tin. Councillor'McMaster,. who is also, M.O.H. for Tuekersmith, said 'fishes could be dumped over the hill with- out objection. It was suggestedthat a bulldozer dig a hole at the ,dump. The assessment of cost, 2 or 3 mills on the.: $1, collection of cost and operating as a public utility were discussed. • Reeve Sills` asked "How much ,are you willing to Pay? We could excavate to a considerabledepth, but don't know what it would cost. Should we use a shovel or a. bull- dozer?" A power shovel or bulldozer costs $8 an hour, it was stated. Councillor Keating said people, might not want to take ashes out to the street ever' week during the winter. Councillors Wallace Ross and -Close concurred that it would be a lot of trouble. Councillors described the whole problem of garbage as a "head- ache", There was much discussion about collecting the cost of garbage collec- tion from citizens. Councillors thought collecting from every house- holder would be expensive. Itwas thought adding it to the tax bills in the same manner that scavenger ser- vice is paid, would, be simplest. Landlords could recover the cost from tenants. Council proposed .1appointing a committee to work out details and make recommendations to, council. Members of the pronerty committee, Reeve Sills and Councillor Ross, said they could not act. Councillors McMaster and Teall were anpeinted a committee to' ' in ygetin'ate details on how garbage is handled in surrounding towns and costs collected, and will make re- commendatiens to council.

Someone has answered, "For the preservation of society, if for no other reason". The Church is the cement of society; it is the onli- safeguard for the preservation of world peace. Take away the Church, and we have organized ,brute force,. anarchy, and destruction of human life, The Church stands at, the great bulwark of society. It is the light of humanity, whose beacon guides the weary traveller to his eternal home. The. Church is the only institution that has as its main function the transforming of human lives. We go -be Church to worship, to observe a .day of rest. We go to Church that we may achieve a vic- torious life. We go to. Church to set an example and for the sake of our influence upon others. We either support the Church by -regular at- tendance or we place ourselves with that materialistic group which is digging' away the foundations of the Christian Sabbath.
