Simcoe County council ad ministration is its roads department which is responsible for upkeep of over 350 miles of betterclass secondary highways The committee headed by Reeve Ken Knox of Elmvale is currently in the midst of particularly busy year with considerably new construction and resurfacing as well as maintenance Some of the construction includes work on County Road 29 from highway 92 south for nearly four miles Road 13 from Lisle south on Road and also the Grey County boundary road In addition there is new pavement and resurfacing on County Road 10 north and south of Tottenham resurfac ing on Road 42 from Stayner south and also on Roads 45 and 21 Estimated cost of construction projects including ur ban rebates has been placed at $1375000 which is con siderable part of the overall years budget of $2863000 Many tourists travel these roads during the summer while county residents use these routes the year round The good winter service is snow removal has been fre quently commended It is steady task which often presents problems during winter snow storms but the staff has been able meet the challenges for which it deserves due credit Reeve Know and members of his committee have made necessary inspection trips to keep up with the pro gress of the work in support of the county engineer Leighton Clarke Warden Allan Glassford who is reeve of Tecumseth and former warden Lloyd Pridham head of Sunnidale township council are members of the roads committee along with Reeve Johnn Fennell of West Gwillimbury Reeve Peter Keams of Adjala and Reeve Arthur Stewart of Penetanguishene Next to provincial highways these county roads follow key routes which play an important role in the develop ment of the area The provincial government through its ministry of tranSportation and communications shares in the budget costs with the county This means tht approximately half the upkeep of these roads is paid from property taxation with the remainder coming from provincial revenues such as the gasoline tax from motorists Fashions of more than 60 years ago arc shown in this photograph of young minstrcl group rcaily to prcscnt varicty show at Barrie Opcra House

broadened Now it includcs taxable gains realized on Canadian securities an overdue change since the government decided in 1971 to define capital gains as income It would be useful therefore to calculate your an ticipated 1977 investment income and ascer tain whctcr any capital gains will be needed to fill out the $1000 and take full advantage of this years cxcmption Remember that any unused part of the exemption cannot be carried over to later date nor are you permitted to use it up by an ticipating incomesuch as next years in terest on Canada Savings Bonds And dont forget that married taxpayers can claim $1000 each Starting in 1977 investment income qualifying for this exemption may no longer be reduced by any related interest expense Lets say that you borrow $10000 on your life

arc leadership lays Which seems like good time to take bit of look at leadership what it involves and what some of the consequences are For example there is common belief that leadership is principally popularity contest And some of those talking about running for the NDP honor obviously believe this is so misguided belief that they are popular is the only apparent reason they could think of getting in Popularity obviously has somr bearinga man couldnt win convention if he were de tested But there are other much more important factors The first of these would be can man win with the public hat most delegates at convention are first lOoking for is winner Then does man have respect Particularly docs he impress with his thinking Does he have stature BIG PRICE One thing you can ask yourself is why would anyone want the job First of all it is essentially lonely job Through necessity the number of close friends leader can have is very limited He has to be pretty much of loner remember Mackenzie King Physically and mentally it is very exhausting life And boringunless you happen to be one who favors the rubber chicken circuit And it can be relatively unrewarding while

railway By BOB BOWMAN One of the smartest moves ever made by the CPR was to add shipping services to their railway There was severe depression in North America in the 18905 and many United railways went bankrupt but the CPR did well thanks to the business supplied by its Atlantic and Pacific shipping Regular railway service between Montreal and Port Moody BC began in 1886 and that same year the CPR ordered seven sailing ships for transPacific trade The first to arrive at Port Moody was the 800ton barque Flint on July as 1886 only three weeks after transcontinental railway service began The Flint unloaded more than one million pounds of tea which was consigned to cities in Canada the US and Europe The Pacific shipping service led to the railway being extended from Port Moody to Vancouver and the development of what is now Canadas fourth largest city and world famous seaport Silk from the Orient also provided valuable freight Many readers will remember the CPR silk trains that raced across the con tinent They were given priority over passenger trains CPR Atlantic service began in 1903 when the company bought the Canadian interests of the Elder Dempster line The first ships were the Lake Champlain Lake Erie and Lake Manitoba which began operating in 1904 It became possible to transport mail from Britain to Hong Kong in 29 ays The CPR also advertised tours around the world in 80 days for $600 OTHER JULY 26 EVENTS lostIroquois attacked Jeanne Mance hospital at Montreal ismPrices of commodities were can trolled HSTMontcalm defeated British at Lake George USSBritish force
