He paid tribute to the work being done by the secretary -treasurer, Mrs. Donald Horne, Mr, Scott and other members of the staff for the job they were doing. Reporting for Seaforth Com- munity hospital, Mr. Fry, who is the town's representative on the Hospital Board, said the air handling equipment installation Reports .,was now cemplete4.80 In 01?- ergtio.R. The work invplyed the, installation of cCitain f4ellitles Which. had been emitted when the original construction was carried out because of lack of funds:11e said a TV had been put in the patient's lounge, as a result of a contribution by the staff and that among additional equipment being purchased by the hospital, was an automatic film processor which was being installed in the X -Ray depart- ment. This would permit X -Rays being made available in a mat- ter of moments and result in better patient care. 'Increasing use of the out-patient depart- ment was noted and considera- tion was being giyen to changes in the facilities to meet the in- creased demand. Mr. Fry said the OHSU is establishing ambu- lance -service ' throughout the area and that the hospital was „working in conjunction with the ORSC and priVate-operators to bring the system into effect.

He said ratepayers wan- der away and -do not want to take responsibility. He congrat- ulated the council and said he knew, they have put in many hours. Donald Kunder nominated for council said it would be a privil- ege to let his name stand but as he had an obligation to the High School Board and to the new County Board he would have to give the matter some consideration before coming to a decision. Robert Newham council nom- inee said he had had experience with ratepayer groups and if elected -and would do his best. , Gilbert Moggach also nomin- ated for council said he was in- terested in the people of Sea - forth and if elected would do his best for them. Mrs. Donald Kunder recently nominated to the County School Board was invited to speak. She felt Seaforth, should have a re- presentative on the Board in view of the investment Seaforth has in schools. She deemed her experience on the Seaforth Pub- lic Sthool Board, her years in Home and^Sehool,work and the fact she was a mother of school aged children would add to the contribution she would make as trustee. This is a multi-million dollar business she said and urged electors to think seriously "for whom you vote". Dr. Morgan Smith of Bayfield, also a candidate said because of. the late hours he would only speak briefly. He said that well over half `of our taxes go toward education. The province wants to equalize grants to schools and this means that farm areas will pay more and urban centres such as Sea - forth will pay less. He stressed larger schools made education less expensive per pupil and that one -room schools were ob- solete. He 'felt McKillop shoUld go in with Seaforth to build up one large scchool. Mrs. Butt, as the meeting was concluding questioned Mayor Kling as to whether Seaforth would receive $5000.00 worth from the planning program. He replied that it was money well spent. John McKenzie'questioned the necessity with regional govern- ment being contemplated and Reeve Dalton replied that Sea - forth will get money back if a good job has been done on planning since it will fit into the county planning program. Harold Jackson asked if nei- ghbouring towns had consult- ants and was told many had.
