L 3 ® A [43 -- Seagrave and area news We all realized it would likely happen this way some time but nevertheless we experienced a sense of shock when the news came that Roy Scott had passed away this afternoon. He had been home from his last hospital stay only a few days. Roy was very widely-known throughout the district and just as widely respected. The sympathy of our community goes to Mrs. Scott and the family. Funeral arrangements have not been completed at time of writing. Many are on the move this holiday season. Our local Girl Gides with-others from nearby, about 35 in all, left on Sunday morning for a week's camping at Balsam Lake. Mrs. Howell and some of the older girls went along to do the necessary. With many families be- coming involved the Mar- tyns of Prince Albert decided sometime ago to have their Christmas at another time of the - year so all could be present. Their Christmas celebration this year was a picnic at Serpent Mounds, Rice Lake on a picnic a Serpent Mounds, Rice Lake on Sunday afternoon. Ima- gine -- A Christmas at 90 degrees. The B.L. Wana- makers and Neil Wanama- kers were among the 33 present. Miss Shirley Short is hav- ing her holidays now and is off to the Maritimes with Gary and Sharyn Twiner of Uxbridge for two weeks. A couple of other moves but of a differnt sort took place at end of the week. Mr. and Mrs. Don Hunter appar- "ently aren't superstitious as they moved to their new Higher taxes (continued) the other three wards for 2 Port Perry. Coun. Neil Hunter did pro- test and voted against this system but his was a solitary opposing vote. Mayor Malcolm later said the budget was '"'as reason- able as we can do. We have not rushed it. We discussed it thoroughly and see no fur- ther advantage in mulling over it any longer." The budget will now be" incorporated in a bylaw that is expected to be passed in time to send out the tax bills before their due date August 23. |EMIELS PLACE 985.2066 IS ON THE ~ MENU EVERYDAY Reserve our FACILITIES FOR: WHERE GOOD FOOD |' Banquet Room e PARTIES © MEETINGS o RECEPTIONS (of groups up to 40 people) "Enjoy our cosy fireplace atmosphere" Dining and Banquet Rooms are now home on Friday. Then on Saturday, Mr. and Mrs. Ted Wilson with their son and daughter arrived to occupy the Hunter place. We hope these moves turn out well. The Hunter grandchildren, John, Kathy and Joe. Elen Pollard have been and are more or less constant visi- tors at the Hunter home during the holiday season. Misses Karen and Krista Carr have been visiting their aunt in Orillia for a week but have returned home and now Cathy is having her turn. Our honour student Darrill Newman is spending his holidays as timekeeper for the Proctor Company in Oakville.

Mr. and Mrs. John Tobin were in Orillia on Sunday and had supper with Mrs. Mary Butler and Mr. and Mrs. Jim Butler. On Wednesday evening Mrs. Lloyd Short of Port Perry entertained with a bridal shower for her niece Miss Brenda MacGillvray. It was strictly a family affair and was attended by all the Short ladies from Sea- grave. They spent the even- ing in contests and chit- chat and report a nice time.

We can think of many more dead trees which could be re- moved to improve the scenery. Our church service this week was badly affected by holidays and weather so attendance could only be described as poor. Mr. Evans will speak at the 10 o'clock worship next Sunday. If you have any pressing business with the B. Wana- makers, do it this week. They are taking off for some holidays right away.

The guidelines were resulting in® the pile-up of appeals on the committee's decisions. The committee will now have to go according to the guidelines in the bylaws and official plans of local mun- icipalities. ' The Planning Committee of Regional Council recom- mended this change to ex- pedite the process of land * division. It had to be a 'recom- mendation' as regional council has no control over the land division committee, Two amendments by Coun, * Newman, including one that the policy be referred back to the committee, were de- feated before council finally accepted the new policy.
