CENTENNIAL PROJECTS OUTLINED Eligible projects (in brief) as outlined by the C en- tennial grants programme include 'any project under- taken by a municipality that will be of lasting nature and will stand as a worthy memorial of Canada's one- hundredth birthday--with the following types to be considered: (a) the acquisition and construction of buildings, parks and other capital works. (b) the restoration of buildings of historical or archi- tectural merit. (c) the writing and publishing of books--composition of musical works, and creation and completing of paintings and sculpture and other works of art .... A project will not be approved unless it can be shown that it has a reasonable prospect of completion by the time of the Centennial observance. A muni- cipality must clearly indicate its plans for permanent- ly maintaining in good condition the completed project before approval will be given to an applica- tion. The act may be read in full at the town office and it is hoped many suggestions will be offered for con- sideration by council . The above does not refer to any celebration of the occasion but the lasting memorial.
