Dear Mr, Farmer, Some time ago, I read in your great country newspaper, that suggestions would.be welcome for town improve- ments. 1. visited Port Perry a and while walking down Borelia Hill, the first thing to draw my attention was the unpleasant odour and condition of the gulley on the North side, which, I believe, could be remedied by laying pipes at a small cost. The fill could be-the winter ashes from time to time, and other clean material, This, 1 think, by joining the more westerly stretch of fill, would be healthier and safer for travelling on the main thoroughfare, leading into the town, which I have heard many people speak s0 highly of. I would also suggest that a hoch or two could be placed in the town hall grounds, to welcome the tired sightseer, who might be travelling by foot. My next attention was the creek, running alongside the beautiful bowl- ing green and how much more attrac- tive it could be made by a sunken garden effect, by a little excavating and the use of cement and stone. This, 1 feel, could be done without interference in high water season, and could be made very attractive and beautifying to the town people, and the visitors, which are increasing more and more, all through the holiday sea- son. Co-operation and the will to progress is the spirit that will put Port Perry in hex rightful place on the Shores of Lake Scugog. Yours faithfully, Ww. J. B. +r Dear Sirs: As a contribution to the Post-War suggestion box 1 contribute the fol- lowing: There are a few small buildings in Port Perry that are at present not in use and I suggest that steps be taken to have these taken over for small manufacturing concerns. Mr, ex-M.P. for Ontario spoke at the Cricklewood Lodge. some time ago, that what this town needed was a few small manufacturing companies. It is my contention that the Post- PORT PERRY CITIZENS' - POST-WAR COMMITTEE "Suggested Improvements for Port Perry Moore, War Committee should consider this angle for Port Perry i in forming thejr definite plans. * * Nd Though 1 do not represent any or- ganization, I am very much interested in Post-War Planning for Port Perry. Hence, the reason for my letters, This town needs improved and new streets and while it may be felt that the subject of streets should come un- der the consideration of the town couricil, nevertheless, the Council can- not indulge in an expenditure of this nature without the consent of the tax- payers. That is why I ask you to con- sider this proposition. Mr. Herb Brooks has the estimated costs covering approximately 2% miles of streets in our town. $$ & The greatest natural asset that the village of Port Perry has is Lake Scugog. In spite of the fact that a great percentage. of the population of this village scorn and ridicule its waters, nevertheless, it is the reason for the town being here. ; It is my contribution as a sugges- tion to the Post-War Planning to clean out the two bays which border on the town, with a sand-sucker and to re- stock the lake each year with fish, Yours truly, - . BE. G. Michell. FROM THE ARMY AND NAVY - YETERANS OF CANADA We the Veterans of Unit 216 A.N. V.C., Port Perry, recommend as a post-war project for the village of Port Perry and district, the building of a Community Centre. The same to take the place, and be erected upon the site and adjacent land of the present town hall. In our opinion the Town Hall is of very little benefit to the community --unsightly and obsolete. The new centre to contain municipal offices, and facilities for amusement and social events, recreation, reading, ete. Also adequate rooms, available to all organizations for meetings and social purposes. L. D, Colbear, Com. Pres. 256 Pages. CLOTH BOUND. A Book you will want to keep for reference.
