That does not mean that we begrudge him the leisure time he so rightly deserves. It is however *ratifying to know that we can still call on his expert service for some repair work. Enjoy yourself Cal! What does success mean to you? Do you measure success in life in accumulating wealth; material possessions; power; status in so-called society or attaining the peak of your ambition in your chosen field of profession, business or the arts. To many people these fulfil their idea of success. by Evelyn Kennedy there are rn things more important than any of theseou happy with what you have accomplished? Have you good memor- ies of the years you have left behind or are there regrets for things you have, or have not done? Have you found joy and contentment In your living? These are important. There are those who have achieved what they considered success to land they have lost the joy in living. Happiness has escaped them. They are often lonely for in their relentless drive to what they deemed to be success they pushed aside family and friends. They have no contentment or the pleasures of rewarding friendships with others.t••• A 15 -year-old Canadian girl, Carling Bassett of Toronto, has been amazing people who are involved, or interested, in, championship tennis.

CLEAR AS WATER—Reeve Cal Krauter of Brussels and Henry Rouw, right, plant superintendent of the Brussels Water Pollution Control Plant, examine a glass of treated sewage, in front of the facility. Of a higher quality than water from a nearby river, neither gentlemen participated In a taste test. (Wassink photo) Water, water evewhere but not a drop to drink The quality of the finished product from the new Brussels water pollution control plant was touted by several speakers as than that of the nearby Maitland River. But,. anybody who was asked, refused to have a sip of the effluent at the dedication ceremony of the plant on Wednesday. The S3.7 million sewage treatment plant was completed in July 1981. It was designed to handle 880 cubic metres of raw sewage per day or a population of approximately 1600. During the month of May, the plant treated 280 cubic metres of sewage per day. The present population is approximately 16000r • di tc.rfw,: Before cutting the ribbon, reeve Cal Krauter said the treatment plant was a great achievement for Brussels. "f was threatened with having my throat cut when we first discussed sewer installation back in 1965. Here we are today. They are now in and nobody wants to do without." The facility is $$ first for the village, replacing septic tarilcs and weeping beds. "I'm sure village residents would sooner flush than trot out to the back 40," said Murray Cheetham. He is public affairs co-ordinator of the communications branch of Environment Ontario. Cost of the project was split three ways. The province provided 54 per cent. The federal government assumed 37 per cent and the village is responsible for the balance. Brussels is paying S302,000, over 40 years. Referring to cleaner streams and rivers, "Murray, as Environment critic, must be taunting the ministry to do more," said Bill Elston. Mr. Elston, reeve of Morris, spoke on behalf of his son Murray, MPP for Huron Bruce. "The treatment plant will keep our streams cleaner and benefit us for years to come. We live downstream and like to see the water cleaned up. The water is cleaner than 10 years ago, but is not as good as it should be." An Expositor Classified will pay you dividends.

Air is forced through the sewage to promote biological breakdown by aerobic bacteria. Solids and liquid waste are separated. Sludge is stored in a holding tank, stabilized and concentrated. It is used as fertilizer and soil conditioner on surrounding farmland. Chlorine is added to liquid waste to destroy disease -producing bacteria. After being filtered, the effluent is discharged into the Maitland river. "I'm glad Brussels has a new treatment plant," said Warden of Huron Grant 'Stirling, ""because I live at the bottom end of the river, at Goderich. The main street of the village was dug up to install sewer lines. It's a county road, now in dire need of paving. "Next year your main street will be paved. I'm glad you cleaned up your act," the warden promised. The quality of the effluent is better than the quality of the nearby river, said Doug McTavish, director of Environment Ontar- io's southwestern region. "The effluent is of similar quality of the water we drink." Comparing the effluent at .5 per cent, he said it was better than the city of London's drinking water which was tested at .3 per cent. "With a small stream flow, such quality is needed," But when he was asked to have a glass of the water before it was released into the river, Mr. McTavish refused, as did reeve Krauter and the plant manager superinten- dent Henry Rouw. A project such as this takes a lotpf time and effort," said Mr. McTavish. "I'm also finding landfill sites take a lot of time." The public was treated to a guided tour of the facility. Standing above the aeration tank, guests noticed a slight odour. "You wouldn't be standing this close to a pig manure tank when it was being agitated,' said Mr. Rouw.
