A, survey of seater citi- zens from the age of 65 on has been taken and Mrs. Cardiac) quoted a number of figures giving ideas on their general outlook on life. In this, genera= tion more people live- longer and there seems., to be a change in attitute to older peo- pie. Now it is make way for the yopng and . strong. Needs vary as to somewhere to live. something. to do and some- thing to live for. As we grow older we have adjustments to make. It used to be the young- er ones needed to be taught by their elders as the Making of bread, butter, cheese, cur- ing of meats and sewing. Now a great many things are bought instead of being made. Arthritis and Rheumatism seem to be the commonest ail- ments among elderly people. Meat and protein etem to be chief foods lackin in diet and probably this a bet use of the cost of buying it. There is a lack of .activities for older citizens but we find more thought is being given to providing places where they can congregate. Lonnie, ness is not as bad as useless- ness for older people.

Asked concerning the attitude toward a 121421 a $chool addition, -Mayer Kling told Donald Hua der that the natter had not been presented to council but would be considered, when the school board made a recom- mendation. D'Orlean Sills, a member Of the PUC, was critical of the press claiming that dull inform- ation had not been provided concerning the proposed in- crease in the %commission mem- bership. The public had not been informed 'he said as to why the commission wanted five men last year and three this year. He emphasized the difference that existed between the PUC and the town and said he now felt that° the town is notlarge enough to warrant a five -man commission. Sometimes opinion of "additional people is required and that was why .a year ago the commission had asked for five men. Reeve Carl Dalton who was the next speaker said he had proposed the move to. reduce the number of councillors to four since with the impending increase on the PUC he felt perhaps there were too many• chiefs in relation to the num- ber of ratepayers. He reviewed action taken by county council and referred to changes that. had taken place in providing school accommodation • in the area. He was hopeful that Sea - forth would be able to provide a greater service to the sur- rounding area in the future by way of primary school educa- tional facilities. He spoke of the co-operation which council had received from the town staff. Referring to the work which had been done on drains he said that while it was ex- pensive it was the ground work which would represent future savings. The meeting became involved in a discussion of 'local assess- ment problems prompted by a recent adjustment in land as- sessments in -Seaforth, with Lorne Lawson, R. J. Boussey, Donald. Kunder and Mrs. Rob- ert Newnham taking part. The chairman pointed out that the assessment as it applies in townships or towns is not the responsibility of the county although the county assessor at- tempts to• maintain a balance across the county. He said the re -assessment of the lands in Seaforth had been prompted by a desire to have lands bear a proper proportion of costs. Representatives Speak. Representatives of the town on area boards were asked to report and Rev. D. 0. Fry, who represents the town on Seaforth Community Hospital board, told the meeting there were • three areas that were a concern to the board. Firstly of Bourse; he said was the care and comfort of the patient. The next, was to. insure that proper administra- tion was carried on and the, third was concern, with • the maintenance of the property. Landscaping had been general- ly completed during the past year, the program being carried out .in co-operation with a for- mer resideee, Lou Flannery now of Detroit. Mrs. J. McConnell who repre- sents Seaforth on the County Library Board said that while the library might look the same there.had been major changes since the last" nomination meet- ing. As a result of the county. library system having been ed - opted, the Seaforth Library has become a branch of that 'sys- tem and what previously was the Library Board has now be- come the local committee. Representative of Seaforth District High School board, Dr. John 0. Turnbull, reminded the meeting the extent of the busi- ness done by the school is not generally realized. In addition to the presence of a staff of 24 teachers there are the econo- e az 4 iitiguLiNniefilta willed eozate ahaut 11.4 .14 result alae existence of , toe school.

Referring to idiscussions con- cerning additional schoolac- cnnune lation he said a- meet- ing had been held with McK41- lop about a year ago. Since then estimates had been obtained but it had not been possible to have a further meeting. The. beard felt'the information which had been brought together concern- ing possible costs should be made public and since a meet- ing with McKillop had not come about, it had been re- leased to the press. Reporting for the PUC, chair- man R. S. Box recalled there had been an, increase in rates during the year and this in turn had reflected an increase of 7.3% in the cost of power purchased from the HEPC. Dur ing the year 26 new services had been ,ad>ded and 41 water heat- ers eaters installed. Two lines had been rebuilt anis five all elec- tric homes erected. Water ser- vices had been updated in a number of cases. He referred to the resignation of R. J.

As the meeting concluded, Mrs. Butt inquired why the townhall was closed on Satur- day denying the use of the wash rooms to themany visit- ors and shoppers on Main Street. She also asked why the benches in Victoria Park had not bee in use during the past summe , Reeve Dalton said the qu tion, of the town hall being dos- ed perhaps was as a result bf cleaners working 'in the build- ing but that in any event the matter would he investigated. There had been a problem in the maintenance of benches in the park and it was found that many of the benches in prev- ious years were upset and dam- aged.
