peaceloving people willing to uphold the principles of human decency in all cases and i would venture to say that they would regard me as the same unfortunately we have discover ed a black sheep in the fold and one that has no better desire than to dump or have dumped as i should say at his neighbours door that he has noj desire to stop or take it to his own this in my op inion and all afflicted with this un godly mess is poor christianity to all concerned and responsible for it the papermill with their life time experience has yet to find a permanent way of disposing of this waste other than making a brain- jess nuisance out of themselves by imposing on others by dumping it in this thickly populated commun ity what you wont find at thqir own either and for our township council which should never have allowed it in this community as our guardians should be they are acting like models in public serv ice and for our milton health dept- we have to be stunk out be fore their modesty is shocked i have asked that this be stop ped first by the man dumping se cond by the milton health depart ment and thirdly by our township council but tp no avail so as it concerns me briefly i will speak briefly on it and still endeavour to have it stopped apd covered over at the expense of those responsi ble this should be done by our council if they had not the desire to nurse and foster such action when the good lord placed us on this earth with a free will he also endowed us- with a conscience to gujdc us and deliver us from all evil if we so desire so it would be well for us to examine them and find out that we are not living in a fools paradise putting jast things first or turning a deaf car to anhonest request no matter how important or supreme we might be a word to the wise and a good thought to keep in mind daily for the short time we are here is hat the good lord keeps watch over ah and we wlh be mighty obedient vhen death knocks at our door ken mcmillan elected 1st

striking change in the canadian economy had been the increase in consumer expenditures total sales of consumer goods and services had increased by 7 twice as much as in 1954 in his budget speech mr harris said consequently in times like the present when private expenditures are expected to rise still further the federal governmnt itself has a special responsibility to see that its fiscal policies continue to be directed toward economic stability following this line of thought there were no tax concessions in the 1956 budget 1957 the canadian economy had expanded more than had been anticipated the gross national product had increased in a year by 11 spending by canadians on goods and services had again increas ed this time by 8 the personal incomes of canadians nad expand ed by
