The purpose is, of course, to stimulate interest for Minor Hockey and to provide encouragement for the boys who play this sport. The miotto appropriately is "Bring 'Your Boy to the Rin ... Don't Just Send Hlm." Interest is apparently on the upswing in Orono for hockey this year and assistances to help with the various teamnslhas been mnost e 1ncouraging.

Munlicipal Water Anmovýe bas again been mnade by the Orono Police Trustees to baeinstalled a municipal water system in the V7illage of Orono. This systemn, if grajnted permission by the Township Council, would serve eveyoe ithin the Village limnits of Orono wlth-a municipal supply of w-%ater. M xiia ateî bas, for the palst twvo years, been an active is- sue in Orono and this latest move by tbe Trustees$, who favour its, in- sýtallation, will ino doubt enliven the issue. Thie value 0f ate to aý centre such asOro can neyer be m-easured ninolr and cents but it is feit from tIhis corner that tÈhe'- crost of installation and( operation is but a fraction 0f the value it >ould be to Orono. Wihnthe ps seven years th e Counties Departmnent 0f Health lias miade two surveys of the water supply in Orono by test- ng the individuLal wells and its findings are that conditions ar worsen- ing. The Departmient in its report also stated that conditions would flot improve in the future but would continue to drop. This in itself is reason enough ito warrant a municipal supply of water in order that everyone could be served with an adequate and good supply of wvater. Li«ke the buggy, the old wooden pumip and individual wvell is on its way. out. The healthl report also made note 0f inadequate pro- tection given to wells and this apparently alws for erratic changing cf conditions of thewae suipply fromn these paiticular wells, Such weils may test AI today but in a couple of weeks or less could be unfit for use. Orono stands today as o)ne centre that baýs flot progressed with' miany other comimuilitie.s wýithi the construction of a water syste m. Municipal water attracts developmeint and notes your community 'as progressive. This area is on the threshoeld 0f increased development b-ut will not sharenin a fraction of it without the availability of water, It is to be hoped that the green lighit is given this undertakig and that wjIiin the year thie tap is turneiýd.
