marvelled at the paintings on the ceiling.
The inside was beautiful: the pillars and the
niche; the rugs on the floor and the pain-
tings, the curled lines of the Arabic from the
Koran. On the street outside, there were all
kinds of Islamic paraphenalia: copies of the
Koran, books on how to pray, skull caps, in-
cense, prayer beads. There are also beggars
and men with skull caps and women veiled
from head to toe in black chadours.
It's normal to pray in public and I now
know the direction of Mecca. I was near the
mosque last Friday at noon. Since the mos-
que was full, the street to the side was
covered with plastic mats. People were on
them, facing in one direction, in various
stages of prayer. Sandals or shoes were not
on the mats, because after the ritual
pruification with water, the individual can
present himself as clean to God. Women
always pray behind the men.
I know now that tea is"very popular. My
tailor is Muslim, and one afternoon he got
out his small charcoal barbecue, put a tiny
teapot on the coals and made tea. I had
three tiny glasses of the strong, heavily
sugared, mint beverage.
For the next month, that is not allowed.
Ramadan began yesterday. Some of the
Muslim students don't drink, but theywill
pot be strictly following the fast. To not eat
or drink in this heat and to continue working
is a difficult test of faith. A person must be
strong to resist temptation.
Christianity .here has an African face.
During the Easter service at a cathedral the
music was different. There wee the hymns
but no organ. The music was the sound of
rattles and drums. And to express the hope
for a good harvest, a group of women went
dancing in, with pots of rice, fruit, and
vegetables on their heads.
I'm continuing to enjoy life here. I know
I'll miss it when I leave. I plan on going to
Burk no Faso before I leave. I'll try to send
a postcard telling what an interesting and
fascinating place it is.
Sincerely, Karen. •

CONTRACTED SERVICES
The Town of Seaforth has responded to
the deputation made by `Lawnmaster'
Paul Vandermolen at the May meeting of
council. At that time Mr. Vandermolen
debated the town's policy regarding con-
tracted services vs. town employees per-
forming services - and expressed outrage
the town had also decided to tender for
grass cutting of the highschool property.
In lieu of Mr. Vandermolen's presenta-
tion, the Town of Seaforth has reviewed its
policy and has stated that, in future, it will
not tender on any grass cutting of non -
municipal property.
However, it did emphasize that a deci-
sion to hire a seasonal person to maintain
town property has been a cost efficient
one.
It noted that: two part-time employees
had been eliminated by hiring one full-
time employee; the parks are being main-
tainedextremely,, well"; and any re-
quired week spraying is being contracted
out to a licensed professional.
FALL CLEAN UP
In addition to its.annual Spring Clean -Up
Week, the Town of Seaforth Town Council
has authorized a Fall Clean -Up Week, tobe
held just after the first frost.
Council agreed with members of its
Transportation and Environment Commit-
tee, that since the closure of the Seaforth
Landfill Site, it is much more difficult for
local residents to dispose of larger items.
ERECT SIGN
Subject to approval from the Minist y of
Transportation the Seaforth Legion,
Branch 156 has been given ,permission to
erect a directional sign at the corner of
Main and Goderich Streets to point out its
location to visitors. The Legion has agreed
to bear all costs involved in the erection of
such a sign.

CHIEF'S AGREEMENT
Council accepted a report from the
negotiating committee concerning Police
Chief Hal Claus' agreement.
The final two items of the Chief's agree-
ment were finalized. The first article
clarified that the Chief may, subject to
council approval, be granted up to five
days off with pay annually, to attend either
the annual conference of the Ontario
Association of Chief's of Police or the
Canadian Association of Chief's of Police
Annual Conference. The Chief will be
reimbursed for registration, travel, ac-
comodation and other expenses as approv-
ed by council prior to attending the
conference.
Prior approval of expenses is a require-
ment affecting all town employees after
council recently established a policy
regarding conference expenses.
The other article was legal fees, and the
agreement was reworded for clarification
of when legal fees will be paid by the town.
"All reasonable legal expenses incurred
as a result of the Chief of the Seaforth
Police Department being charged while in
lawful execution of his duties as a police of-
ficer in which the charge is either
withdrawn or the chief is acquitted, shall
be borne by the Town of Seaforth in their
entirety."
With the agreement's finalization the
Chief will begin to be paid his 1989 salary
retro -active to January 1, 1989.
EYE GLASS BENEFIT
The terms of employment for all town
employees incorporated a:;100 eye glass
benefit -every two years, based on recent
payments received by some employees
from North American Life. The previous
benefit was ;75 every 24 months, arid North
American Life has recently advised that
the4100 benefit was paid in error.
The negotiating cgmmittee felt it would
be unfair to change the terms of employ-
ment, so council increased the eye glass
benefit to;100 effective August 1, 1989; and
employees: submitting.a$100 claim for 1989
and receiving$75 from the insurer will be
,paid ;25 bythe^town.
