TH~ CANADIAN STATESMAN BOWMANVTLL~. ONTA~Tfl ,IqWTTDqTIAV flW~ t~ lfl* S'---a -. ---. .~-.* --w' The most ambitious program ofroad pavn ever undertaken an ealng Township has bEen earrie out during the paat year, with 10 miles of township roads being hard-sur- faced. Along with the two miles of hard-surfacing completed last year, the Township has now paved 12 miles of roeds in two years. In addition, in the four Year s since 1951 during which RyW. Nichols has been Reeve of Darlington, the United Coun- ties has paved an additional $205,00 REWARD for information as to thxe present whereabouts of one Patrick Hainey wbo forineriy resided at Burketon Junction, Ontario This reward wll be paid upon obtaining Information enabling me to locate Patrick Hainey, the Defendant ln a motor car accident ceue, who bas not appeared and against whom a Judgment han been recov- ered under the provisions of The Unsatisfied Judgment Fund. Address ail replies to A. R. WILLMOTT, Q.C, 240 Division Street Cobourg - Ontario 7% milès of county roads, mak- ing a four-year total of 19'h miles of hard-surfacing. The Township la also carry- ing out a prognamn of widening and inipioving its dirt roads, cutting the brush at the sides and deepening ditches, as well as bard-sunfacing as many stretches as its budget would allow. One of the noads which has been improved a great deal by widening, grading and ditch- ing is the noad south of the Countice corner. Last year this road was hard-surfaced as fan south as the Ebenezer church and this faîl the Township roads department unden Les Gnaham has widened it fromn the church south to Highway 401. The ditches have been deepened and the, brush cut away at the side of the road along this stretch. Hope For Cloverleaf The Township Council is anxious to get this section pre- pared for paving next year as they hope to get the Ontario Department of Highways ta in- staîl a clovenleaf on Highway 401 at this point ta give moton- ists. fromn Courtîce, Haydon, Enniskillen and fanther north a direct link through this road to the new highway. This noad is already paved from, Ebene- zen to Haydon, 12 miles north. A cold-mix asphaît has been used on this road as the Town- ship Coundil membens believe that this type of pavement will last for 15 years without re- pairs. The cold mix is put on to a depth of 2/2 inches when it is laid. The following year ai thin coat of hot asphalt is put1 on, and an additional one-haîf inch of baose crushed rock is laid down. Thîs two-year pro- cess gives a very hard and durable type of pavement which the Darlington officiaisj believe will stand up much better than hot-mix asphaît.11 This type of pavement asý been used ln the entire 12 mie of iýaad which bas been bard- surfaced in Darlington during A NEW '1955 Frigidaire Dryer THIS CHRISTMAS Fret winte drig ems - a NowI Brfng sunshine indoors .very day of the yearl Just toss clothes into a Frigidaire Electric Clothes Dryer and minutes later they're dried ail soft and fluffy.

We understand that the ten miles of paving completed i Darlington this year has been paid for by >a miii rate of only 8.25 for road purposes. This ia one-haif mill less than the 8.75 mills collected last year, al- tbough council did have a sur- plus left over from last year ta work with duning 1954. Many Sections Paved Stretches of road which were hard-surfaced this year by the - Township are: the Third Con- cession Road from the Oshawa Dairy Farm for several hun- dred yards west; the Preston- vale raad from No. 2 Highway south to Clarence Penfound's; the Maple Grave road fromn No. 2 Highway three-quanters of a mile forth; the Sixth. Conces- sion Road from Solina 11/4 miles west; the Eighth Conces- sion Road from Enniskilien to Haydon, including the Village of Haydon; and from the Boys Training School two miles east to the Clarke Township Boun- dary. This excellent road-bullding program has been carried out in co-operation with the De- partment of Highways, which pays 50 cents on the dollar for construction, maintenance and repaîrs of township roacis, and 80 cents on the dollar for mon- ey spent on bridges and cul- verts. Part of the equipment used on these paving projects has been Darlington's own, and the remainden has been hired from the Department of High- ways. In addition to actual paving, the Township has donc a great deal of widening, gnading, ditching and bnush removal. On the First Concession Road about two miles west of the Bowmanville town limitsaa bulldozer has been used to wi- den the cut thnough Woods' 1H11l so that the snowplows can do a better job in the winten. For a considenable stretch west of this hili, brush has been cut back from the aides 'of the road. Ditching On Boundary On the Townline Road North, which forma the boundary be- tween Darlington Township and Oshawa. the ditch on the east aide has been deepened by the township and culvents installed, while work on the west side has been done by Oshawa. It was noticeable, too that the township job has been much the better anc. ýOn the Seventh Concession Road, two miles east of Ty- rone, a bulldozer has been used to widen the cut through the Gibbs Hill and improve the road to allow better snowplow- ing in the winten months. This stepped-up road build- ing and maintenance program1 is an indication of the great !orward strides in Darlington Township In the past year. A total of 160 new hauses have been built, raising the value ofj assessed property in the town-c ship by $405,000 to a new high 1 of $4,515,615. The population of Darlington has increased , from 6,168 to 6,845 -outstrip- ping the growth of Bowman- ville-and new bouses are sprmnging up rapidly in the wlestern section. ' To handle the increasing pop- ulation, Darlington Township Counc11 has built a new two- room school at Zion and two- room additions at Maple Grove r and Courtice Schools. The cost c of these new schools was in the neighborhood of $76,000~ somewhat lowen than the orig- inal estimates submitted.

Two bulldozers are shown widening the road and deepening the cut so that it can be snowplowed more easily during the winter months.
