Province May Develop Port Perry Sewage Works An announcement has been «made by the Hon. J. R. Sim- onett, Minister of Energy 0O.M.B. Approves Amalgamation Amalgamation of Whitby fnd Whitby Township Jan. 1, 1968, has been approved by the Ontario Municipal Board. In addition, all requests 'and proposals relating to a- malgamation, made jointly [V4 the two municipalities, were approved. ' Beware Of Phone Calls There are many methods used to attempt pilfering with other people's money. The most recent idea, and not very ingenious was made when clients of local branch of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce on two occasions were called at their homes by a person requesting information about their per. ssnal accounts. The inquiries made were, how large a bank balance the client had, and when the last amount was either drawn or deposited. The incidents. were dis. covered when the two per: sons involved contacted the manager, D. McRitchie and 'Informed him about the calls. Naturally these types of calls are far from customary for any bank to make, and Mr. McRitchie asked the Star to warn anyone who might re- celve such a call to ignore them, and call the bank im- mediately. and Resources which have ex: panded the authorization of the Ontario Water Resources Commission in the provision of sewage and water works facilities. The revised terms of refer- ence now allows the Commis- sion to construct additional works for municipalities un- der the Provincial ownership plan- currently in affect for water supply and sewage treatment works. This announcement was dis- closed at a meeting of Port Perry Council after a request had been 'made for such a development. With regard to the project presently being developed by the Commission, the above- mentioned change in govern- ment policy permits the Com- mission to develop the entire sewage works system as Pro- vincially owned works. The preliminary engineer- ing report prepared for the Village and the design report being prepared for the Com- mission will likely supply adequate engineering infor- mation to allow-to determine the extent of the project. Second Message From Chairman On page two in this issue of the Star is the second message from Joel W. Aldred the new hospital's general campaign nianager. In this message, Mr. Aldred stresses the many. "whys" in regard to the need of a new hospital for Port Perry and area. $62,000 must be raised lo- cally, and if everyone pulls together this goal should not 'be too far off. Please read Mr. Aldred's message on page two. DOUG HILLIER SALES MANAGER Dr. D. J. Price, president of Peel's Poultry Farm Ltd. has announced the appoint- ment of D.

In 1965 alone, 136 fatalities oc- curred on Canadian farms. Despite a continuing decrea- se in Canada's farm popula. tion disabling injuries and economic losses continue at a high frequency. Reminding farmers that fewer accident possibilities dents, the National Safety League urges all farmers and family members to eliminate all possible obstacles to safe- ty on the farm. Farmers in the Port Perry, area are generally quite con- cerned about the many possi- bilities of injuries on the farm, but there is still room for improvement. One of the most successful farmers in this area, Leonard Jarvis of R.R. 2, Seagrave has Fatality Rate Rising On Canadian Farms recently installed a safety ladder on his 60 ft. silo. To his knowledge there are not too many of these around, but as Mr. Jarvis claims: "I wouldn't be without the safe- ty ladder, for anything in the World." : In January of this year, Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis with the help of their two sons, Keith and Ron, won first prize in 'the Province wide Farm Im-- provement Contest sponsored by the Ontario Department Star Closed No publication of the Star will appear Thurs- day, August 10.
