423. Dec. 54 THE HAILEYBURIAN Mosher, A- C. HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO _ THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1954, Subscription Rate: $2.00 per year Vol. 50; No. 30 Go Ahead = New Water Line; D. Dean Speaks Over 125 Members Children's Aid Sewer System Possible Council gave positive evidence Jast Friday night that the a-t fairs of this town are in good hands. They all felt that -a wa- ter line must be installed n the RorkeiAvenue, Lawlor, Georgina, and Albert vicinity for reasons of health. As the Mayor said "Memories of typhoid epidemics are all too vivid." Regarding sewer installation, they weren't leaping right in without a thor- ough discussion on whether they could afford it and whether it was a sound venture in view of the fact that it would service only twelve homes and a good many vacant lots. A, Mosher led off with a forward punch when he remarked "that if we are go- ing to progress, we must create attractions. D. Gardiner count- ered with "There are already 80 serviced lots available in town. If they do not choose to live across from me. they can choose an equally good lot in the south end of Haileybury." He agreed with 'the philosophy, however, that if we don't go for- ward, we have no place to go but backwards--even if we go temporarily into debt. A. Mosh- er did not agree with D, Gardi- ner's statment that we depend entirely on Cobalt. "If it falls flat it's the end of Haileybury," "Exactly what percent of income from Cobalt goes into Hailey- bury" asked Councillor Mosher, pleton gave him a list of names compiled for last year's mining giant but Mr. Mosher was opti- mistic. "Others will come in to replace them." A. Mosher felt that ; were as important to health, if not more so, than waoer. A concentrated study of plans and estimates of Sutcliffe and Company and the anticipated over-all income from wate rates next year led them all to the hap py conclusion that they could see their way clear to the installa- tion of water by the Town and bearing their share of the sewer under Local Improvements. The Mayor repeated his oft-stat- ed view that this was the only sound policy "as water is a ser- vice we give to the people" and sewer installation is for exclusive use for those people." | Coun- cillor Poppleton suggested that before going ahead with the sewer, they notify the people concerned regarding cost to them so that they could decide if they favour it. "If they are interested they shovld.be here within the week." Couticilior Mosher said "twelve hours." Councillor Gardiner couldn't let that one go and said "Unless they are in Red Lake." sewers WEEK IN COURT Two Charged With Impaired Driving For driving a farm tractor while his ability impaired, Gordon Nowry of Earlton was sentenced to 14 days. His de- fence, W. C. Inch argued that a farm tractor was not a motor vehicle as no license was requir- ed. Acting Crown Attorney, R. D. Cuming asked "It is driven by a motor and if it is not a motor vehicle, what is it Maurice Pelletier of Rouyn was also fin- ed $75.00 for impaired driving.

FIRE IS A DESTRUCTIVE ENEMY K. D. WATSON, Fire Chief to Board of Trade Members on Tour "Seldom do we have the oppor- tunity to welcome such a dis- tinguished group" said Dalton Dean in his opening remarks to the touring members of Toron- to's Board of Trade who visited the Tri-Town area last week- end The occasion was a lunch- eon at the Cobalt Community Hall. i Turning back the pages Ol history, Mr. Dean told his audi- ence of the early voyage of Chevalier de Troyes. and what might have been Lord Birken~ head's "turning point in history." The Indians offered to guide de Troyes to alead mine on the east shore of Lake Temiskaming but he was disinterested in waat developed into the oldest lead mine in the United States or Canada. "It is interesting to specilate" said Mr. Dean "on what might have happened if-he had come to the west shore and stumbled on Cobalt where over 400,000,000 ozs| of silver have since been produced -- in those days an unheard of fortune. The French would never have given up the struggle and we would be today a French colony. As it Was 200 years elapsed before Co- balt was discovered "Today," Mr. Dean said, "I be- lieve that the town of New Lis- keard has one of the best bal- anced economies of any town in Ontario." Those who expect to see only rock and bush are amaz- edto find a fertile clay belt with prosperous farming communi- ty. There are thousands of acres yet to be cleared and _ its future can be increased three- fold. In the town itself the Hill Clark-Francis. the focal point for lumbering in Northern On- tario; the Wabi Iron Works; Eplett's; George Taylor Hard- ware Wholesalers--all serving the gold mining area." "The town of Cobalt is a fabu- lous town. Whether it was dis- covered by Fred LaRose_ chip- p.ng a rock with a hammer thrown at a fox or not. it is rich with stories and legends - still recounted.
