HEZREXALL N SRG STORE : 3 LIM ry (=i) TEL. 94 OAKVILLE COUNTY COMMENTARY Although D.S.T. was translated last week-end by the Acton Free Press as meaning "Don't Start Today", the usual number of Acton residents were reported one hour late for church on Sun- day morning, Greatest deviation from accepted run, however, was that of one Halton county editor who blissfully set his alarm clock BACK one hour before climbing between the sheets and settling down to snore. No, he wasn't two hours late for church. He just didn't get to church at all! Stock County Streams Headwaters of Sixteen Mile Creek were reinforced last week with more than 10,000 speckled and brown trout, game warden Dudley Hitchcox reported. And this week, about 4,000 more are expected to arrive from govern- ment hatcheries. These yearlings arrive a mite late for enthusiastic Waltons who hailed the opening of the trout season Sunday by turning out in force at many county points. Most were doom- ed to disappointment, however, as the wily trout were waiting for spring this year in water that was foo high, too muddy and too cold, according to Milton's Can- adian Champion. On top of that, county roads presented as big a problem as did the filling of the frying pan. Georgetown Goes Nutty It Georgetown residents are not peanut conscious before many weeks pass, it won't be the fault of members of the town's active Lions Club, who have taken it Editor Warns Citizens, Muffs Own Time Change upon themselves: to see to it that every man, woman and child within the town limits munches a full quota of the delicacy. The Lions have made peanut sales their major activity of the month, and are conducting a door-to-door: campaign dispensing tin after tin. It seems they grab a profit of 22 cents on each tin sold, and hope to raise several hundred dollars for Lion service work in this way. Pioneer Woodsman While power saws and tree sur- geons have chased the old time wodsman farther and farther back into the northland's bush, one skilled axeman still dwells up Acton way. Last week, armed with only a cross-cut saw, an axe and a couple of wedges, Fred Grantz felled a giant chest- nut tree in the Acton United church. grounds, dropping it ex- actly where he had planned with- out causing one iota of damage. What's more, he had it trimmed, cut into lengths and piled in something under three hours! Fathered Radio Fan And in nearby Cooksyille, Herb- ert Marsall has found a gimpy- legged -robin who isn't too proud to admit that even a bird can stand a few singing tips. This particular robin has summered in "the Marshall back yard for three years, waiting patiently each day to spot an open door or window so that it can venturé inside to perch by the radio and listen. Those soap operas get just about everybody! Heralding construction of: one of the major projects of its kind in Canada, preliminary work is now underway at Hydro's new 600,000 horse-power Sir Adam Beck-Niagara Generating Station No. 2. The new development, which will cost approximately $157,000,000 at present-day pric: es of materfals and labor, will be located in close proximity to the present Sir Adam Beck station (formerly known as the Queen- ston plant.) In making this announcement, Commission Chairman Robert H. Saunders and R. L. Hearn, Gen- eral Manager and Chief Engineer, MAMMOTH NEW HYDRO PLANT WILL SERVICE THIS SECTOR present open canal from Chippa- wa to Queenston. There will be about 5 miles of pressure tunnel, and near the whirpool, the tunnel will come to the surface and on open-cut canal will carry the wa- ter a further 23% miles to the forebay of the generating station. TIME & CHANGE Time was when they used to say a woman pays and pays. Then Mr. Douglas Abbott took a hand, and now instalment buying isn't as easy as it used to be. stated that the would involve the construction of a gen- erating station with six units of 100,000 horsepower each, a tun- nel approximately 5 miles long and an open-cut canal about 3 miles in length. 7 They stated that the new pro- ject would help materially to meet the steadily increasing de- mands for electrical energy in Southern Ontario and that every effort would be made to have the development in operation by 1954 depending on the availability of materials. Oakville and Trafal- gar are in, the area to be supplied by the mammoth new station. The Hydro Chairman stated that work was already proceed- ing on the storage yards, the rail- way facilities and the temporary living quarters for men on con- struction. At present there are approximately some 400 men on the job. For several months the Com- mission staff has been proceeding with exhaustive engineering in- vestigations and hydraulic studies in connection with the new de velopment. The intake for the new project will be situated above the Horseshoe Falls, between Chippawa and Hydro's Ontario Power Plant intake. The water- way will be close to the river and about five miles shorter than the ELLSWORTH JAEGER will be Guest Speaker at the annual meeting of the Oakville and District Hu- mane Society, Wednesday evening, May 9th.
