dent otttw aaernber of the canadian weekly newspaper association nd the ontario division of the gwn-a- i sewage a number one issue council at present is faced with or of its thorniest problems in deciding what to do about disposing of increasing quantities of sewage waste in the most economical manner now and in future years strong pressure is being placed on the town by the ontario water resources commis sion which is interested in clearing the credit of pollution and by delrex developments which was promised adequate sewage disposal facili ties in its agreement made with the town in 1 954 the problem seems to resolve into whether an addition should be made to the present dis posal plant or whether a completely new plant should be built to serve the towns future needs there can be no particular argument that some action is not needed authorities such as the late town engineer the council public works com mittee a consulting engineering firm and or a e berry of the resources commission have al i sta ted that the system is severely overloaded dr berry top government authority in this depart ment said last week when he attended a council meeting that the disposal plant designed to treat 300000 gallons of sewage daily has over twice that intake currently every new house that is built aggravates the situation and eventually the breaking point will be reached when the system bogs down completely what makes the problem extra tough is that no one can predid georgetowns future either a year from now ait ten years from now a few years ago optimists were talking about a town of i 0 20 or 30 thousand people growing up over night subsequent developments have shown that growth does not come that rapidly and yet past statistics and geographical location give ev ery indication that georgetown will have an up ward growth each year even though industry locarion may lag residential development does not a brief submitted recently to council by the delrex firm has statistics which show that a cer tain amount of residential building will more than carry itself in taxes and provide a substan tial surplus to help pay off sewer costs if the del rex calculations are correct perhaps georgetown has no alternative but to follow this course un less is to completely stall building operations on any large scale until industry comes whatever path council fakes is fraught with certain dangers their path must be chartered to advance as far as possible with the least pos sible risk an unenviable position when there are so many intangibles facing them so many factors which are controlled by higher economics a commendable publication staff of the high school year book the chal lenge are to be congratulated on their publica tion renewed this year after being suspended for many years and which is having a brisk sale among people interested in seeing the product in its finished form the attractive book generously illustrated with pictures of students and school activities came off the press spmewhat too late for students to make an intensive sales campaign anxi the herald is filling in by handling this copies at 100 apiece are available at the herald office and we would advise those interested to pick their copies up immediately publication was lim ited to 400 copies and it is expected these will soon be all gone the book is not only of current interest but is one of those things which becomes more valuable as years go by adding to histori- worthy public servant retirement of reeve stan allen at the end of his current term will be a loss to

week was quite- a hectic one for legionnaires with parades scheduled for both oakville and milton on sunday afternoon most of the branches in the zone broke up into two parties with some go ing each place georgetown took a bus of members and the wa to oakville where some 13000 people saw the parade and saw rear ad miral h pullcn take the salute ac companied by senior army officers the oakville boys went all out to look after visiting branches and a good time was reported by all un fortunately wc had to rush off to milton and managed to make it just on four oclock the parade there was over but it too had been a large one with thousands of spectators two legion offic ials were present keg otcator re placing henry harvey at the last minute in oakville and 1st vice president fred obrecht in milton both branches were to be commen ded for the active part played in their centennial celebrations and as a matter of interest the arguments have been raging as to whether georgetown has celebra ted their centennial and when ac cording to the official records the herald back files it was held in 1937 and took place on a weekend although very young then skep tics please note very young we recall the old boys reunion and the big celebration in the park we certainly had nothing like the one cither of the aforementioned com munities had though note to j t armstrong why not have it over again before we get to old to enjoy it your worship i i i the convention dates are creep ing closer and wc wouldntt be sur prised to see a real turnout down at st catharines they are pre paring for one of the biggekf con ventions in history and we hope that all branches who are not go ing will send their proxies with somrohe the opening parade is on sunday august 4th and was to be the biggest parade every held by provincial comman lets hope gcorgetotfnfonds a delegation on the weekend at any rate i i i we have been trying for some time to run a few pictures of the kid hockey and also some notes about whos who in the men who look after the little nhl so with the cooperation of bruce gummer who suppliesd us with the data wc finally printed it this week least we hope its printed this week i milton legion hall is building an extensi6n and will be a beauti ful building when completed we think that when it is finished it is going to put georgetowns hall cant sf did to shame giving as it

the apartments in it until such thne as they need h this is certainly a very forward look and will no doubt be justified in the future when it will be possible to expand their building and still have plenty of parking space ill with smith and stone and mai- ton starting their holidays next week the old town is going to seem deserted for a few weeks sd just be warned dont expect too much in the way
