Some 175 ratepayers have already signed the petition. A mini- mum of 217 signatures is re- quired before the trustees can through the township make application to the Mun- icipal Board and the Ontario Water Resources Commission. Still Time To Sign Water Petition Any ratepayers who have- n't yet had an opportunity to sign are asked to get in touch with any member of othe board, Chairman Neufeld or Trustees Andrew Snider or Jack Yorke. It will cost con- siderably more to install wa- ter at a later date. Anyone missing the original installa- tion will have to pay $200.00 plus the initigl‘costsh Mr. Neufeld has estimated a total of $155,000.00 in de- bentures will be required to finance the project. It is hop- ed a start can be made by the end of October. Public works completed by the trustees during the sum- mer included the closing over of 1,000 feet of ditch on Keele Street lying between the Anglican Church and the Presbyterian Parsonage. New culverts and manholes were installed. The project was carried out in conjunction with the Toronto and York Roads Commission. __.‘=..__ Arriving in Montreal and then up through Quebec to Quebec City they took in all the inter- esting spots but found Quebec City most intriguing. From there they travelled on down through Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, to Prince Edward Island. Here they visited and spent the night with Roy and Margaret Younker. Roy had formerly worked in Maple with Bruce at Central Ontario Cattle Breeders. On their return they chose an- other route which took them through the U. 8., through New Hampshire and Vermont across the bridge at 1000 Islands to Canada and then on home. An interesting stop over was made at Springhill N. S. where Bruce and Dorothy toured the town and its closed mines. It seemed a sad town as its peo- ple eked out an existenc while awaiting an industry to come to Springhlll and with it a means of livelihood for its men. The older men want to stay on at Springhill, it has been their only home, some of the younger men have tried elsewhere but the majority have come back ‘home.’ A new prison Mr. and Mrs. John Cave mo- tored to Exeter recentLv to It- tend the wedding of Leone Mac- Kenzie and Norman MacIsaac.

Maple Men's Bowling Lame; Celebrating your birthday on the first day of school can be a 'lot of fun as Sheena McDonald and her friends found out last September 8.

Lots of Birthdays: Lynda LaRiviere can still tell her age without dropping a year or two -- she was 10 on September Bt'x. We understand Roy Crook celebrated a birthday last Satur- day. the 12th. Grant Wells was 6 on Septem- ber 5th and celebrated with a party on the 8th with 18 of his friends attending. Some of his friends came from out of town and they were - his Bailey cous- ins from Aurora, and Susan Hallâ€" well from Concord. Grant‘s sister Lorie looked after entertaining hi: guests, ably helped by Glen- alee McKee and Marilyn Thacker, The Murchison's travelled a to- tal of 3075 miles while seeing scenery and mountains nast des- cription; crossed on six ferries and noted the harvesting was be- hind in the Maritimes, due to the poor weather. In all their travels young Brian seemed to find as much enjoyment and excitement as anyone. He had a ride in a stage coach, drawn by horses in Six Gun City, New Hampshire; was fascinated with the deer, goats, geese and other animals in Santa’s Village at Jefferson N. H. Sleeping in the car. cabins or mot- els he took it all in his stride and his meals in restaurants - why it was lots of fun. 7.8117 in all it was a holiday Bruce and Dorothy will remember with enjoyment from start to fin- lsh. Sunday School Teachers Hold Retreat: Maple Public Library is in full swing for the fall Shelves have been added and there is a fresh supply of new books.

Out of Town Guests: Over the Labor Day Holiday the James Families (Jim and Bob) certainly have been well recorded for posterity. Seems Shelley, Gail, Doug and Brian took Julia Meade’s advice and ‘shot' their families from every angle poss- ible. We understand The Liberal might be interested in certain poses ! ! Off to School Mr. and Mrs. Mel Sheppard of Ottawa, visited Eleanor and Mac Hamilton for a few days recently. Shutter Bugs: Diane McConkey is commuting and enjoying it.

More Winners for Maple: Hoping to build up their mem- bership, they decided to make a departure from the more or less regular routine of meetings. The next meeting of the W. A. will be held We nesday, October 14 and a very special invitation is given to all members to attend a supper at the home of Mrs. Barry Hayes. Each member is asked to bring a gift and it in turn will be sold at the bazaar. A lively sing'song led by Mrs. Noble started the fall season of Maple W. I. held at Mrs. W. Noble's home.

Jackson were chosen as leaders to attend training school “Focus on Finishes.” Mr. N. Stephenson who works at Mills Roses at Richmond Hill, showed film on ‘Rose Growing' as it is done at their greenhouses. This was a very instructive and interesting lecture and gave us an idea of the amount of work entailed in growing such lovely blooms. He had with him many of the varieties grown there and on leaving each lady was given a nose to take home. The commit- tee in charge Mrs. H. Stephenson. Mrs. M. Palmer, Mrs. H. Jennings served cake and ice cream which was enjoyed by all on such a hot evening. The next heating, October 14 to which every lady in the commun- ity is cordially invited" will be held at Mrs. L.

Any girls between the ages of 1.1 and 15 are invited to come out. Last Friday the Concord-Edge- ley Bowling league was unable to get in the first games of the sea- son, the reason being the instal- lation of automatic pin setters at the Woodhridge alleys. The sys- tem was not completed until it was too late for the bowlers to play. The installation of these ma- chines should speed up the games as well as eliminate heckling from the pin boys (unless they have automatic hecklers too). The Warren Bailies went brav- ely forth last weekend, camping at Sibbald Park. Lets hear from the other organ- izations around town regarding your\starting dates for this sea- son.
