thursday night was the reiu lar monthly meeting president har vey garvin in the chair along with treasurer wallace thompson and the secretary charlie day mrs t f grieve was the recipient of an award from provincial com mand for meritorious service when she received this she received a large round of applaus and was congratula ted by members the financial report was given as were the various reports of the com mittees the meeting was a brief one without too much new business after the meeting was over com jim murphy had a real treat for the boys in the form of chicken lets and he really got rid of a hunch of them too the legs were fried by courtesy of livingstone s bakery and were sure dee licious quite a few more than average were out for this event hope the legion and the town cnun cil get together again this year for the fireworks display on the 24th of may this has been quite an attrac tion each year if they do however it is to be hoped that some arrange ments can be made this year to cur tail the practice of young hoodlums tossing lighted fire crackers into the crowds this is not only dangerous especially to children but is in our opinion at any rate just a little silly when practiced by otherwise intelh gents of from 15 to 17 possibly we could arrange to have extra police help- this year or maybe even get the firemen to act as special constables in uniform there were quite a number of compilings about this last 24th and of course without a uniform it is practically impossible to get any attention paid last weekend was quite a big one in cton i i ln s hilorv the re jmptd thin intire building and we mijht add di i in exullent job of it the old pjrkinj lot out back i no mote and ou now have building in its place this project originated sonic thru nunths afo

tended the serice and parade on iriday earning the new auditor mm was officially opened by a ball for members and their guests wc think the acton boys deserve a lot of credit for their gesture in inviting 2 couples from each branch this was certainly a nice gesture especially when they expected such a crowd of their own members georgetown was represented h harvey garvin the president and 1st vice president jim and mrs yates zone commander i es clark and mrs clark were present as were reg clcator regional com mandcr and district commander hugh i amb and mrs i ami saturday evening was the hihliju of the weekend with a binqm t t i members and gin sts ifter an opt n house during tht day the wn r was present as 7 mi mimamler a 1 gordon couscns of branch io was also present in fact we thought ho was paid a rathi r nice tribute by dr allan buchanan who was speak n for the 25 year mtmbers and ho told of the work co cousens hid done in helpme to ccl the branch in acton under way the guest speaker of the evening was no less than one well known in town the famous major jock an derson mc and rar wc had the pleasure of sitting next to jock at dinner and he immediately asked us how his hi i laddies were doing down here especially a couple whose off spring he had christened whei he mentioned the name mick we knew of course it was hob mcmenemy 1 ut he couldn t think of anything but ted for the other one and it wasn t until some hours later that it dawned it was trevor williams he sends e gards to all his old hli friends an j wishes them the best major ander son is now padre at the koyal militaiy college kingston his address was really good telling of his cxpenenc es in world war ii and also as a pad ic in korea farm news concern about road expenditures was expressed by council last week when they learned that the dept of highways will pay 50 per cent subsidy on only 35 000 this year while a minimum town road budget will be over 50 000 the dept is drastically cutting mu nicipal grants particularly for main tcnance which reeve stan allen in terprets as an attempt to force towns to spend more than they can afford on new construction the 20 0000 maintenance limit wont touch the work to be done in georgetown this year says the reeve and he opposed accepting the govern ment s proposal which was finally passed by council after an hour h hea ted debate council will however put in a strong plea to the qcpt for extra grants to cover necessary oiling and grading of miles of streets in new subdivisions which can anticipate a dusty summer unless the highways department relents its decision cr lcroy dale qucstioni d the imounts which acton and milton will be allowed compared with georgetown reeve allen slid it is ridiculous that nassagaweya with no new construction will receive equal grants to 195 county roads this car will also be hampered by a si ere drop in the budget he said is only 180 000 has been allowed in 1955 georgetown spent 30 000 on road maintenance accordlnc to clerk j d kcllys figures mayor armstrong said councils on ly course is to submit the 35 000 is timate and immediately apply for a supplementary grant at the same hint nscertaimng which roads could hi permanently surfaced to lct u ivern ment grants we must realize said the majm that the dept is the supreme auth onty on subsidies they don t ask us what we want they tell us what wc 11 tet two illcrnativcs to maintenance of gravel roads he said would be a per mancnt road svstem which mean dc bentures the town can t afford or a permanent surface treatment such as has been used on lower john st he thought it might be possible t fct a supple mentaary subsidy on the latter georgetown received subsidy on 70 000 road expenses in 195j said the mayor which shows the difficulty which council faces now cquncil set daylight saving time in georgetown from april 29th to sept 30th the same as in toronto third reading was liven to a deb- bentuic bylaw for the new 217
