LONELY HEARTS LIMIT BUDAPEST (AP) -- The first "lonely hearts club' formed Minister of Municipal Affairs, have had an equitable assess- ment," he stated. "Mr. Dymond says he has no knowledge of any corruption in your municipal council," said the Municipal Affairs minister, "and until I am supplied -with more evidence than just the statements of one man (Mr. Roy), I must agree with him." Professor La Brie said far-| mers today don't have any more services than they had 50 years ago and they aren't the ones who are always asking for more. ' "It is the urban dwellers in the south," he charged, "who don't even know how to light a fire to burn their garbage. They're the ones who have caused our taxes to go up." | Mr. Roy claimed Mr. Goslin| had even taken his name off the township's voters' list and he wasn't able to vote in the last municipal election. ht burned down four: buildings, one costing $50,000 and several small buildings so I wouldn't have to pay taxes on them," he said, "and nstead of my taxes being lowered, they increased." He added, "today there are poor farmer's, rural and urban citizens alike, who are suffering from calamitous abuses' im- posed by the 'Pork Barrel Gang' who by virtue of their authority, set to frustrate any effort we make to extricate them." The meeting was attended by Deputy - reeve Mrs. Jean Mc- Pherson, Councillor Harvey Spang and Ontario County, As- Bsougham Library Adds 327 Books BROUGHAM -- Mrs. Lloyd Johnston, librarian, presented a encouraging report of 1962 ac- tivities at the recent annual meetisg of Brougham Associa- tion Library, The library was times on Wednesday evenings and Saturday afternoons, with a volunteer worker present each time, A total of 2155 books were borrowed, which compares with 1442 in 1961 and 1792 in 1960--an increase of 49.44 per cent over 1961, The meeting noted that last year more non-fiction books |were borrowed in 1962 than in| reported missing -- four adults! 1961 -- 230, as compared with 189.
