Forty ratepayers attended the annual meeting held at the Lake Wilcox Public School last week and elected Joseph Gibbs pre51- dent of the association for 1960. Sid Cole, a former chairman of the ratepayers association said he felt if more members attended meetings regularly during the year they would create more in- terest and understanding in com- munity affairs. Mr. Cole said it was his opin- ion that the Lake Wilcox resi- dents could have elected two members to Whitchurch Council in December if they hadn’t been so anious to put in a ‘Lake Wil- cox Council'; five people were nominated at a heated nomina- tion meeting held in the Town- ship before the elections. As it happened, he said, the vote was Split so badly that former Goun- clllor (2 years) Mrs. Elsie Gibbs was defeated and the only rep- resentative now on the town- ship council from the Lake Wil- cox area is Ross Farquharson. Getting back to future pro- grams for the Lake Wilcox Rate- payers Association, it was sug- gested such items as euchre par- ties, community dances, speCial speakers (including the township assessor), would liven up the monthly meetings and bring more members out. Also elected to office on the association for 1960 was William Newstead, vice-chairman. Mrs. Munro was returned to office as secretary-treasurer. A CHICKEN ' DINNER IN 5106 MINUTES ?
