Mayor Bruce L- Stewart on be- half of the Town Council extended best wishes for a balmy and W0!- perous New Year to the citizens of Souris in his annual New Year's message yesterday.

"It is the way of human beings to mark milestones and this. our forty-sixth, is not the Ieast." said Mayor Stewart. "History was made through energies expended in the fishing industry and by our dragger neet which landed in Souris more than 1,000,000 lbs. of fresh haddock, cod. bake end sole per boat.

"However. making history was not the main purpose. but rather we are concerned about this new way of life which has already ltransformed Souris into the fish- .ing Capital of P. E. 1.. and the foresight of these pioneers who have brought this development to its present status have set the .stage for town expansion. and we imust maintain this progress and ;create greater prospects and open up greater opportunities for the

MAYOR B. l.. TEWART

Mayor P. L. Boudreault. on be-I half of the Town Council of George- town. extended greetings and best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year to the citizens of ; Georgetown. 1

His Worship reviewed some of the accomplishments of the past- year and looked forward with con- fidence and assurance to still peater progress in the year be- fore us.

He referred to the loss suffered

by the town during the put year.t by the death of the late Councilo ' Thomas F. Reiioon. whose sudden passing removed from our midst a man who had served on numer- ous councils and whose record of public service was an admirable one. During the past year the council also lost the valued services of Councillor Emerson Llewellyn oc- casioned by his employment” which necessitated his absence- from the town for a considerable period of time.

To fill those two vacancies, the council was fortunate in receiving the nominations of Mr. James Macconnell, Jr. and Mr. Charles A. Fraser.

Among 1956 projects cited by the Mayor were the street paving and sub-grading program. Gordon Street was paved from Kent St.. to Victoria Street and thence north on Victoria Street to St. Jame's Church Cemete y.

Two blocks of Grafton Street from Victoria Street to Fitzroy Street from Grafton North was gravelled. The various other streets of the town received the usual maintenance. Bridges- and drains and culverts were also

"During the year the Souris Fire Department received a new aux- iliary pumper and a large quant- ity of new hose as well as, smoke masks. Fire Chicf C. E.l Lavie and his men sponsored a Fireman's dam-r, the proceeds from which were IISNI to purchase? incidental equipment.

"A number of streets were hard surfaced during the year, and it Isl hoped that I957 will see new side- walks and the old ones repaired-

"A number of new homes were built and towards the end of the year Imperial Oil officially open- ed thelr new hulk plant on Great Water Street.

"The above lists a few of the major developments in Souris dur- ing the past year, and these, to- gether with many others have made 1956 a noteworthy year. and it is felt that the citizens of Souris may look forward to greater pro- gress and development in this. community in the coming year. I

"May I take this opportunity oni behalf of the Town Council to' wish each and every citizen of Souris best wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year." n

looked after. A considerable por- tion of new sidewalk was laid on Grafton Street. between Kent and Fitzroy Streets.

Sevcnty-five theatre seats were placed in the town hall. adding greatly to the comfort of patrons attending motion picture shows and concerts.

The town's fire fighting equip- ment was improved and replace- ments made where necessary. A new and large Dry Chemical Ex- tinguishcr was purchased. All major community facilities were kept In constant repair or were

improved. MARINE SLIP

His Worship rt-(erred specif- ically to the new government

marine slip. which was erected and officially opened at George- town during the past year. He felt that the slip. which already has handled some fourteen ships. would contribute considerably to the industrial life of the town. For the coming year the street

program includes the paving of Victoria Street. south from Gordon to Grafton Street and

west on Grafton to Fitzroy Street. sub-grading was planned on Water Street. extending East from

Kent Street to the Marine Slip. '
