The recommendation also stated that three jail walls would have to be removed-the one ack jacent to the kitchen entrance• to theChildren'sAid officea, the wall facing Napier Street and the wall immediately adjacent to the present assessment building.

Over 13,000 individuals are presently registered with this volunteer agency who sponSor recreational as well as work- oriented programs for handi- capped adults. Many programs are designed, on an individual basis-providing not just a hand- out to the disabled, but a "hand up". Job training, vocational assessment and direct assistance programs, 'Such as the provision of artificial limbs, wheel-chairs and other orthopaedic appliances, are still _a major part of the Foundation's services,. Renewed interest and effort by local volunteers has resulted in a growing recognitio'n of- the needs of the handicapped adult' and is stimulating new programs and activities especially tailored to meet these needs at the local level.

'He stated, however, that it did seem foolhardy to risk losing an indus- try, which minips a half-million dollars anmeally into 'the come munity for the sake of -the jail walls.. Finally Shewfelt countered with a proposal that if the walls were removed, the county give considerationto moving the Chil- dren's Aid Offices into the upper floor of the new buildeng (the assessment office reqifires only 2V,00„Square feet of the addition) and leasing the former gover- nor's house in which C:A.S. is presently located, ,to the town of Goderich. • The idea proved, immediately popular with sortie members of county council, and, Clerk- treasurer „John , Berry even' advised council that the sueees- •:ei..eAreeeetimemeeeepseeeee. 4mAgogo4t4,0=444AV,W0. • "P•74:::•4:4;•. • • BASKETBALL When the March of Dimes Ability.
