GODERICH—Clerk-Treasur-
er J. G. Berry, in his report to
Huron County Council Monday
morning, predicted increased
casts and higher tax rate.
Contributing to increased
costs, as far as the county is
concerned, are such matters
as expenses of coroner's in-
quests, county public libraries,
county assessment commission-
er system, and regional jails.
"I would like to point out
that 1967 is going to be another
year in which our financing will
possibly necessitate an increase
in the county rate," Mr. Berry
stated. "It is too early to pre-
diet exactly what might happen
but you should bear in mind
the following problems with
which we will be faced:
(1) an initial payment on
debenture issue for the County
Home ($53,000 to $55,000);
BAYFIELD — Fire of un-
determined origin completely
gutted the old Thomson
house on the Bayfield Line
in 'the early hours of Thurs-
day last.
Known as the "Haunted
House", it was built in the
late 1800's by a Dr. R. Gaird-
ner.
It has not been used as a
permanent residence for
many years and although the
state of preservation of the
building at the time of the
(2) increased cost of operat-
ing new addition to County
Home;
(3) possibility of continued
building programs as far as our
local hospitals are concerned."
Continuing, the clerk-treasur-
er pointed out that if there
are no building plans for 1967,
then the county would be able
to divert some of this money
for hospital reserve purposes,
to the County Home debenture,
assisting greatly in financing
for the upcoming year.
Bayfield To
Talk Planning
BAYFIELD—I. M. Ander-
son of the sub-division sec-
tion of community planning
branch, Dept. of 'Municipal
Affairs, is to meet with mem-
bers of Bayfield Council on
Friday morning, to 'discuss
planning in the village.
Mr. Berry stated that a fur-
ther problem for future financ-
ing concerns the situation at
Centralia Air School. The
county receives a considerable
graht at the present time, off-
set to some extent by costs of
road maintenance, administra-
tion of justice, and welfare.
Last year the grant was
$11,562.
In this regard, he favoured
immediate action to have it
designated as a "depressed
area" for industrial purposes.

BAYFIELD'S HAUNTED HOUSE

One of the lost of Canada's mighty Lancaster
banbers is scheduled to arrive at Sky I 'arbour

IL The Idea of obtaining the giant craft recently
declared surplus by the RCAF., is credited to the
late Keith Hopkinson of Sky Harbour Air Services,
who lost his life in a crash near the landing field
only a matter of weeks ago. Colorful ceremonies
have been planned for reception of the big inane
which will be delivered from Dunnville by an
R.C.A.F. crew. It will become property of Gode-
rich Branch 109 Royal Canadian Legion, and be
converted into a memorial on an appropriate site

tain that it commanded one
of the finest views of the
lower Bayfieki River valley.
We understand that the
name of the person turning
in the fire alarm is not
known.
Bayfield fire chief Walter
Westlake reports that the
building was in an advanced
state of destruction When the
alarm was turned in, by
which time, flames were vis-
ible frwu the village.
On June 10,1964, Bayfield's own
weekly newspaper, the first since
1895, offered Vol.1 No.1 to the
community, with a front page as

Robert E. McKinley, MP For Huron
Addresses County Council
(By H. S. ATKEY)
GODERICH — "I4y duties
include such things as keeping
up with affairs in my own
county 'to find out what is
needed; where a better place
than the County Council in
session?"
Robert E. McKinley, MP for
Huron, took Monday off from
his duties at Ottawa, spoke
briefly to Huron County Coun-
cil, had lunch with the mem-
bers, and listened to some of
their problems.
He was of the opinion that
the International Plowing
Match near Seaforth in October
would be "a big thing for Hur-
on County"; that Expo '67
would be "a great thing for
Canada" especially in support-
ing our efforts to sell our pro-
ducts to other countries.
"I don't think that Huron
County suffers very much in
comparison with other parts of
the country," he declared. "Act-
ually, we are all very well off
here by comparison." He did not
favour the principle of seeking
to be considered a depressed
area.
Referring to his duties in the
House of Commons, Mr. Mc-
Kinley said he had been able
to accomplish — not, perhaps
many big things — 'but many
little things. "There is no
trouble keeping yourself occu-
pied," he stated.
He invited County Council-
lors to mention to 'him any way
he could help out.
