will retire from municipal oflict i tor the present four men who while hovink busy lives hove found time to serve the municipality and render a rood senvee too heading thnt list in length of service is mr a mnson whose term has run over the past fifteen years and has found hinf occupying the positions of school trustee councillor reeve and wurdcn tf the county in addition ik has served on many organizations not elective and nl present is chairman ol acton and district red c ross society nnd doing 11 worthwhile job here too j next m order comes j m mcdonald who has just completed ten years on the school board nnd nine of these as chairman of the board mr mc donald has too found time in his busy lfle in serve on mum organizations not eleeted b the ratepayers and is president ot the legion nnd on the 1 eeiitie of the hcd cross and giving eapnblc leadership ucevi mccutcheon conus third m term nf eais ot service with two years as councillor and three vears as reeve many would have weleojiicd a long er term fot him il he had seen ht to have continued and his conduct of the work would have won for him turther honors he too has served in other capac ities for the municipality councillor bentty who also retire- has had one year as councillor nnd as u joung man we feel will serve further ternu inter but he too serves s exe cutive on other organizations in the community the point we want to make is that every one of these men are busy men occupying importnnt post tions in business affairs they arc enjoying success ful business careers and yet they have found the necessary time and had the necessary ambition to give or this limited lime to the affairs of their com munity they have served well and while retiring from office at this time we realize full well that re tirement for none or them means a cessation of com munity interest acton has beert the better for the service that has been rendered bybusy men red cross funds nre stilt incomplete nnd are yet
