HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1977-01-27, Page 3• ' I've finally figured why, in
the old days, town people liVed in
town and 'worked there, while
, rural people stayed on their farms'
and worked there... Iff two
words...the winter.
There was just no earthly way
that farmers or their wives were
going to brave snow drifts atid
howling winds to take a horse and
cutter into town -16-Work every
day: And no town person could
hope to get or keep a job once hiS
or her bess--found-out he or she
had moved to Con. 7, lot 13,
MeKill'Op township. Farm
employees lived right on the
farm; they couldn't hope to
commute from town. People were.
too sensible: for that malarky.
Perhaps. the only-rural people
who were in town everyday were
the kids who attended Seafor th.
Collegiate' Institute. And pretty
well all of them board ed in town
for the winter, and got home on
weekends only . when the roads
were good and-they were lucky.
School buses hadn't even been
dreamed of. , •
NOW days there's. lot of
the matter.He added that all the
board asked for was a review of
the architect's proposal claiming • . . ,they . c ve that since, it
was • 'buried somewhere 'in
Goderich. •
Director of education -John
Cochrane said that the principal .
,of the school at the. time the
health, unit shut down the faulty
sewage system has been replaced
and that Dr. •Mills' comments
were not valid -as far as staff was

invelving a. holding tank, more

monitoring of the• system .to keep
it operating until the town installs

Mr. Elliott said he felt fir. Mills
had no Tight to judge the
competence of the .staff of the
school nee to make a judgment in

farm fields of Huron_ County.
What do you think? I'd be really -
interested in hearing both sides of

even though they've taken work

out from town to work on' area
