PAGE FOURTEEN TEE CAWADIAN STAT~MAN, EOWMANVILLE, ONTARlO TmIRSDAY, NOV. 12Ui, ige By Angus Gordon COURTICE-Like most peo- pie in public life, Reeve Roy W. Nichols of Dar]ington Town- Aship bas his boosters and bis cletractors. However, after 15 Iyears in office, he bas learned to roll with the punches, and is regarded as a fair counter-pun- cher. One thing 'ils detractors neyer attack is his unquestion- ed integrity, and his regard for the Township of Darlington. His cpponents regard his as a dogmatic man who will not compromise. His supporters, In- cluding most of bis council and municipal employees, dlaim the interpretation is wrong. That he is careful to map out a plan of action wbich he then pursues to completion. A mild spoken man of asce- tic appearance, his bearing and gait belle the fact that he is entering his 6th year. He is re- luctant to speak of himself, bis family or bis business, but can easily be drawn on the subject of Darlington Township. In fact he's willing to drop anything he's doing and drive a visitor through the Township to show off bis new municipal building zHampton, or perhaps what are more important to Reeve Nichols, the many miles of as- SPECIAL LOW RAIL FARES to ROYAL AGRICULTURAL WINTERFAIR TORONTO, NOV. 13-21 FARE AND ONE-HALF FOR THE ROUND TRIF Good going-Thursday, No- vember 12th to Saturday, November 21st inclusive.

Bora On Farm Roy Nichols was bora on a farm about baif a mile north of Courtice. The farm was origin- ally the property of bis great- grandfather, Archie Nîchols, who came to Canada from Dor- chester, England, in the eariy 1800's. Roy W. Nichols Roy confesses he is not too well acquainted witbhîs fam- ily bistory. "I know that for a wbile my gneat-grandfatber liv- ed in the Welland distrilct, and worked on the Welland canal when it was under construc- tion. Hie came to Darlington Townsbip about 125 years ago and bought the farm near Cour- tîce. Reeve Nichais was bora July 1, 1900. He decided against farming as a careeer wben he was 16, wben be ieft ta take a motor mecbamce's course in Toronto. He confesses he did not cane too much for life la the big city, and carne back ta Countice when he was 21 to open a sinail garage. Hie bas been in business for himif since that time. "It took me a long time ta establish tbe business I've got today. I had ta make it a full time job. It's like anytbing else, if you want something you've got ta make it a full time want, and you ca't afford to be side- tracked. Got To Set Goal "It's just the samne with mun- icipal business. You've got ta set out with a definite project and carry on witb it until it la com- pleted. Wben the job 16 donc, then yau. can get o.n with sarne- tbing else. I suppose mny entny ita municipal affaira waa link- esi with the car business ta same extent. I suppose I realized how badly we needed good roads and the equipment ta keep them lin goosi shape. 'II came inta Darlingtan Township council with a prom- ise that I wouid do sornetbing about getting good mrade. We have nat yet reached the goal I set 15 years ago, but at the present tume Darlington Town- ship bas more miles o! pavesi noasi than any Cher municipal- ity la the Unitedi Counties," be declared. 'II must adds also, that they have been built and devisesi for less than baîf the coat per mile than what the county andi ather municipalities are paying. "I'm nat taking the credit fan ail this.

I'I~ 1 r rods foreman, Tom Stewart, who doea a big job without get- ting credit he deserves.- 1 A look back at tbe records shows that in 1945 when Roy Nîchols took bis seat in council, the Toiship didflot own a truck or a snowplow. There was littie, if any equipment for roads maintenance. County Coundls allocation for roads in the Township amounted to $280 for snowfencing. Today the council is building a township garage to house its equipment, which includes snowplows-, asphalt apreaders, trucks and tools for mnainten- ance. Fuli Time .lob Asked about the infrequency of his attendance at county couaciýl, for whlch lie has been crlticized, Reeve Nichais admit- ted be did flot attend every ses- sion. "I reasoned this out a long time ago. Maybe Im. not a poli- tician, but after being able to stay in business for 38 years,I tblnk that I can dlaim. I know wbat I'm doing. "In the first place, the coun- ty council is h-aadling about 11%/ milis of Darlington Town- ship money. The rest a matter of 88 ½ nis, 16 handied right bere in the Township. "There are two of us sltting on county council. I figure tbat it does not take two of us to liandie Township affairs at couaty council unless some par- ticular problemt develops. The reeveship is a full Urne job right here in the Township."1 Hie added that this was one reason why lie did not take the post of warden wben it came time for a Durham county man ta step in. "We've lots of prob- lem-s night here in the Town- ship whioh require a lot of at. tention at this particular time. I feit that I couid flot giive arnount of tixne necessary tU both jobs." Reeve Nichols said that be- cause he daes not take bis seat reguiarly at county council does flot meaxi that he is allowing the county council to forget that Darlington is StiR the second largest municipality ln the area. "Vie were the forgotten c3hilc when I came into -municipal af- fairs but we got some action or the Bowm'anville-Tyrone road, and we'l1 get action on other roads sooxi. Flght For School "It was along, uphil-1 fight to get the bigh school for Darling- ton. We knew it was the logical place, but it was liard ta con- vince eight other municipalities. It was a matter of waiting with- out doing too rnuch sbouting. "I dis;covered a long time ago that it's flot the feiiow with the loudest voice that makes the best records. You can do a mucli better job by getting around quietly and giving people tume to th.ink."1 Possibly Roy Nichols regardls the new Township Hall ai Hampton as his greatest accom- pliahment. This opinion is shar- ed by civic officiais in neigb- boring zaunicipalities, and to a great extent by officiais la van- bous departments at Queen's Park Who 'contributed to the cost of the building. The opinions are based on the fact that despite the current high cost of construction, the building was erected at a cost of $40,000. This by no mean i- dicates the sale value, wbiclh is assessed at somewhere around $120,000. Modlern Building A split level building o! mod- erna design, the top on gnound floor bouses offices for neeve, cienk-treasurer, weifare officer, andi assessment commissianen as weli as a general office, and a fair sized couacil chamber. The iower floan la dcvoted ta a large auditorium, which la also equipped i wth a modern kitchen and vanlous dorncstic offices. Reeve Nichols necalis that he disi most o! the purcbasing o! matenials and supervised the job frorn staËt ta finish. "'Wc bad a certain amouat of moncy ta spcnd. Vie did flot want ta add ta the debenture debt. It was obvious we basi ta get new offices. With this la mind I d saine shopping anound for mia- teriais. Vie contnacted tbe labon andi we came up witb a fine building without going inta debt." Asked about plans for the fu- ture, Reeve Nichais pointed out that there is stili a big job ta be donc on pneparing an official plan. "Vie have a planning board and a bylaw, but there's stili a big job ta be donc con- viacing thc ratepayens that it is ta their benefit. It is actuaiiy thc anly way in wbich we can keep taxes on a equitable level witbout saddling thc Township with a big deben- turc debt. In tbis respect we compare favorably with any municipaiity o! aur size. ~VeSchoola Contly Wehave flot yet got all the services we want, but we'll get tbern. As you know, scbools are the b'ggest and castlieat prab- lem faciag aay municipality. Tbe councils have littie or no ctral aven Qis Part o! the spendlag.

J. Hobbs, secretary treasurer of tbe Sehool Area Board, told the Township Council that thxe Courtice Scbool will have 265 pupils in September 1960. Hel 'Ladies' Major Bowling After Monday night's action, tbe standings were tightened considerably, with tharee clubs deadlocked atop the beap, three tied for second, and four tearns in tbird, only two points back. Lydia Bates' bowlers downed' Sadie Bucknell's tearn 2-i to tie the losers for first. Bernice Bu- day's club also moved into the leadership, as the result of a 2-1 win over Mary Wilcox's out- fit. Ena Etcher's team moved out of the cellar, downing Hildai Brock's bowlers 3-0 to drop the îosers into their former posi- tion. K.ay Beauprie 's crew se- conded the otber shutout, a 3-0 win over Ollie Patfield's squad. In the remaining games, Lola Wrigbt and Donna Preston re- corded 2-1 decisions over Joyce Lyle and Doris Joli, respective- 'y.

He in- formed the council that in 1960 West Maple Grove will have 93 pupils, there will be 102 in 1961, 111 in 1962, 110 in 1963, and 116 in 1964. Coundillor A. E. Thompson drew attention to claima for damage done by dogs to iLve- stock amounting to $926. He said that ln the past few weeks four cows were killed and an- other so badly damaged that Jt had to be done away with. He said that total dlaims for dam- age done by dogs in the town- ship to livestock mnay amount to approximately $1.100. Reeve Roy W. Nichols stated that receipts from the dog tax amounted to $2,300 a year, and expenses for dog dam'age corne to over $2,000. He pointed out that the value of livestock is goîng up. The tax receipts will not pay for damages by dogs let alone the expense connected with the Dog Control office. He asserted that the dogs that do livestock damage are neyer caught. Reeve Nichols suggested that the Dog Catcher might work at nigbt in the township instead of during the day. It was men- tioned that the dogs that killed the cows in question were two police dogs and a Labrador re- triever.
