division of the cwna halton has a neu mp with a countrywide endorsement of the liberal party to direct federal affairs for an other term of oftice sbil bennett scored somewhat ot a personal triumph by winning halton for the progressive conservatives a lot of hard work went into miss ben nett s campaign personal calls on voters ran into the thousands and she spoke at dozens of political gatherings as well as at scores of functions of a non political nature there can be no doubt that halton is sending a member to ottawa who knows every nook and corner of the county and who ha personally chatted with more people than she will eer be able to remember by name her victory transcends political boundar ies in georgetown for it is only on rare oc casions that the town can boast of sending a local person to parliament one person put it rather aptly when he said the election results pleased me equally well in the domin avenues of progress an extension of ewing street currently under consideration by the town council could truly be known as an avenue of pro gress some traffic relief for the college view section of georgetown has been a necessity for many years growth of the smith stone plant and steady enlargement of the two paper mills plus considerable building of houses in that district has more and more tax ed the john street subway which was an in adequate highway to start with while the district has three other traffic arteries all have disadvantages ontario street has an outlet on the highway at the extreme westerly limits of he town but the road is narrow hilly and dangerous john street continues down to mountain view road but a steep hill and a dangerous railway crossing pot pourri oddities still continue to make their ap pearance at the herald office each week no we don t mean the customers last week mrs matt lawr brought in a geranium with two perfect blooms one white and one red growing on the same stalk the herald lost two tenants last wreck since early spring two huge sparrow nests in the awning have made us roast on hot afternoons when we couldn t disturb the awning for fear of harming the young families all seemed clear last week and the youngsters had ven tured out into the world on their own so re luctantly but firmly we climbed up on a high stool and pulled down the nests works of art they were too combined of an endless variety of string paper and feathers we felt guilty as we burned up those hours of labour a local boy don co fell is head cook at ayigwassan a large muskoka summer resort and another georgetowner from many years

will be a good one messrs mcphail and allen command the respect of everyone who has met them and thev fought a clean hard campaign untainted by any political shenani gans which sometimes impose in such cases in any race someone must be the winner and we know that they too will be wishing miss bennett the best as she sets forth for a new field of endeaor in the capital city makes it little used victoria street pro ides another dangerous route through canadian national railway property and here the road wav is usually bump with seeral main line tracks to cross it is council s intention to continue i wing street across the river to meet ontario street a culvert will be built and the street will be paved when practicable and this whole section of town will have an entrance way to town superior to anything at present in exis tence the new road will also serve apro- posed housing subdivision on tom hewson s propertv which adjoins the creek 1 ike evt rythmg else this will cost money and final cost will be in the neighbourhood of 30 000 but it will be money well spent and a true avenue of progress for a town which has grown so rapidly in a decade tommy lee who visited us on sunday
