RATEPAYERS MEETING A meeting of the local ratepayers was held in the school hall Sunday evening to discuss the problem of supporting two community halls. The majority present favoured making the school} building the community hail as it has running water and other facilities which are required. A discussion was had on ways and means of sup- porting this building and the possibility of moving the former Women's Institute Hall ac- ross the tracks and adding it as an addition or extension of the school building. The school lot has land available to make a proper parking lot adjacent to the building. Thus by joining the two halls a larger and more ac- comodating community center would be available. Bill Schelling chaired the meeting. It was announced that another meeting would be held September 19 at 3:00 to further discuss this issue. Suggestions were heard on the many possibilities of raising funds to cover the costs of this project. It was suggested that voluntary workers would be welcome as it would eliminate much of the cost.
