P. SCHOOL BOARD
ASKS COUNCIL TO
PLOW ' • SIDEWALK'S
Points Out Danger To Chil-
dren Walking On
Streets. -
Seaforth Public School Board meet-
ing Tuesday evening, tailed on the
Town Council to take steps to en -
;mire that sidewalks on at least one•
side of the street were plowed dur-
ing the coming winter: The Board
poineed out in the resolution,, which
At adopted, that accid'en'ts „to children
have been narrowly averted as a re-
sutt of their having to walk on the
highways.
The resolution reads: "The Sea -
forth Publio School respectfully peti-
tions 'the Seaforth .council to gave
,serloas consideration to the plowing
of sidewalks, at least on one side of
the street, starting this winter. The
School Board wishes; to 'point out that
the teachers are training the children
to avoid accidents ,by walking• on the
sidewalks and keeping off the roads;
inwinter it ,is impossible for them to
#ollow this safety device, owing to
the fact that they have to walk on
the roads. Many childxen have nar-
rowly escaped accidents, particularly
when going to and from school dur-
ing stormis: The Board would point
met,. too, that many adults whose ad-
'vanoi.ng'"years make their feet les
nimble, or who may 'have .impaired
bearing or vision, are endangered be-
cause they have • to walk on the roads
and the highway. As taxpayers, we
lbeiieve they are entitled to the extra.
safety that plowing of the sidewalks
would give." • •

hoard room were Chairman Clare

War robbed him of his Mom and Dad;
His hair 'was fair, and blue his eyes;
Feet six years oidt and, undersize.

Green lawn in front, a beauty spot;
Jim had a dog, he named it Ted,
A Scottish Collie, thoroughbred.

Ahd then war came on land and sea;
Woret of all came war from the sky,
,Jim's world was changed, he watched
men die.
Do you know who this laddie was?
Full well you know- the cruel cause;
War drums sounded, 'Dad, beard the
call,
With many* others he gave all.
