Dus.to the nature of the soil on which South Eind :s built, the job has been a lengthy cne and a costly one. \ "The big difficulty when laying a road in town is to combat the capiHhiary clay beneath the surface. "Clearance Anderson, Tisdale township enginger, said. "In order to get a permanent surface which will not buckle or heave due to frost, it is, necessary to cavate for several fest and . backfill with another material." Capillary clay is a type of soil which acts with water in the same imanner the wick of a lam» acts with oil. When frost goes into the ground, water in the suboil rises to meet it, when this type of clay is present. This results in huge chunks of ice forming close to the surface during the Winter months, to erupt in frost boils in the Spring. "If you note our old concrete sideâ€" walks, you will see the effect of th‘s action," Mr. Anderson said. "They were laid on the surface. In a short time they were broken to pieces due to the type of soil beneath them." When new sidewalks are laid today in South End, the soil beneath them is first excavated and backfill is made with sand and mine rock. Then they are surfaced with asphalt, which has considerlee more "give" than conâ€" crete. ‘ Grading and backfill of the section of Bruce street now under construcâ€" hone 13545 rock.

Last year Golden avenue received â€"the same kind of treatment from â€" Main street to the bridge on Evans street, while, in 1945, Golden avenue was done from Main to Moore and Bruce avenue from Main to Crawford. Mr. Anderson said that the presence of capillary clay was fairly common in other municipalities other than South End. The problent of how to deal with it came under considerable disâ€" cussion this year at the annual conâ€" vention of the Good Roads Association. "Unquestionably it is costly to build roads in the manner in which we are doing so, but there is no alternative, if the public wants good streets in south End," Mr. Anderson declared.

A film, stiill untitied and curâ€" remly in the stage of being edited. is to be produced by the National Film Board depicting the important pos.tion held in each community by its weekly paper. wWhen released, the film will be available to film councils and film libraries and is be.ng considered for release to theatres. It will also get nationâ€"wide screening on the NFB‘s extensive system of, rural circuits. Eventually, it will be given internaâ€" tional distribution through the Board‘s foreign offices, Canada‘s embassi¢s, leâ€" NFB‘s film on the weekly > newsâ€" papers of Canada will not be a imere sereen document of the mechanics ol publishing a paper. Of necessity, it will show the operations of publication but the principal aim of the producâ€" tion will be to emphasize how vitally the paper and its editor and staif enter into community life and activities, how they serve the area covered by the paper and how the activities in that area covered by the paper and how the activities in that area afâ€" fect the paper and its contents and services. gations and trade commissioners Oiâ€" fices. In this it will probably be proâ€" duced in a number of foreign lanâ€" guages and may go to as many as 70 countries other than Canada and the United States. “00000“’0"“0000’_’0000: PP EOe mds *# * \\\\\)\\\\\\\\S\\\\S\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\.\\\; 2 Phor..s 112 3 immins® L VUYVALI OA NA /KE 47 MAE C m“ + M\x\.\,\.\s.\x\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\}:\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\3\\3 . e ETW N Y ~r CE NF 0 #0 PINE STREET NORTH Black Everyone Who Owns A Home Needs Comprehensive Liability Insurance â€" SEE US TODAY Simmsâ€"Hooker Pickering Sile Opp. Town Hall.
