THANK YOU The confidence you, as rate- payers in the village of Hensall, have shown by re-electing me to your council, is greatly ap- preciated. John Baker Thank You ! ! ! wish to take this oppor- tunity of thanking the ratepay- ers of the village of Hensall for the fine support they gave me at the polls, and. for elect- ing me as Reeve for 1962. Compliments of the season! NORMAN H. JONES szemismaimmasszsak erwromamemommew Hensall Ratepayers Thank you for electing me as a member of your council for 1962. I will try to serve you to the best of my ability at all times. John Henderson during December. Also Christmas Week on xday night. THANKS To those who supported me at the polls on Monday, 1 say thank you! Your efforts were sincerely appreciated. Clar. Lenaghan 1 Letters to Editor Dear Sir: -In your November 30 issue there appeared a state- ment from John Henderson. I should like to inform the public that his accusations were uncalled for, unfair and not fact. The minutes of our meet- ings are in the town books in the clerk's office for the rate- payers to see if they so desire. It hardly seems fair that when such a letter appears in the paper a few days preceed- ing election, the accused do not have a chance to reply. I should think it would be much better if there was a two-week period between nomination and elec- tion. However, the damage has been done and there is no turn- ing back. blue to several unpleasant occurrences we have lost our most capable clerk, Earl Camp- proach as a clerk, but as a bell. Not only is he above re - gentleman. It will be a great task to replace him. In closing, I would suggest that if any ratepayer has a complaint, he come to the coun- cil meeting and give the coun- cil a chance. I maintain that politics does not have to be "dirty." The people involved make it so. Respectfully yours Mrs. Minnie Noakes Thank You 11 1 wish to express my sin- cere thanks to the electors of Hensel( for the wonderful sup- port they gave at the polls on Monday. 1 will try and serve to the best of my ability.
