The program which assists
employers through tax credits to
create 'additional - jobs is
explained in detail in a release
from Huron - Middlesex M.P.
Robert McKinley.
The main points set out by Mr.
McKinely are,:
— Two year program estimated to
cost $100 million a year in tax
revenue.
— Program to begin by March 1,
1978, provided 'enabling
legislation has ,been passed.
— Target of up to 50,000 new jobs
in the first year,
— Eligible employment must
involve an addition to the normal
work force that would not haVe
been made without the incentive
of the tax credit.
— Tax credit will be $2 per

it was shown about 50 times to a
total audience of 3,000 people.
The Eckmiers were one orthe'
founding members of C.L.A. and
the van was taken to at least one
conference demonstrate library' seiwice , in rural areas. ' Mrs.
Eckmier left Huron County in
1961 to go to Scarborough Town-
ship Library. In the following 6
years, the couple moved to Sault

establish the library at Algema

work until Mr.
Eckmier's retirement in 1911,
Their colourful 'career brings
back memories of a previous less
formal society. Mrs. Eckmier
presented a brief to Premier
Roberts and it was influencial
when the Ministry decided to
revise the library grants.
Angus Mowat, indicated that male
'patrons could select books at the
library in. Walton while having
• their hair cut. The continued
support of Mr. Mowat, director of
Provincial Library Service,
Department of Education,
furthered the growth of the
library and indicated Strong
fellowship between the Eck'miers
and this colourful government
employee, His early correspon-
dence with the ,Eckmiers has
drawings of gardening and other
hijinks. Under his careful
persuasion the couple ventured
into film making business. The
film called "The Books Drive On"
today looks very quaint. It is
narrated by Tom. Rafferty and
produced by Bob Henry. Anyone
presently living in Huron Cqunty
would be surprised to see the
number of treed roads. The film
was presented at C.L.A.

Chief Librarian
The sudden death of R. Glenn
Eckmier drew my attention to the
pioneering spirit of the Eckmiers,
.The Eckmier family are long times
Ontario pioneers, settling in
Fullerton Township in 1846. Mrs.
Jean Eckmier (former Jean Barr)
received her education at U,B.C.
(3 year Arts) and worked at
Vancouver Public library before
combleting her library course at.
McGill. She received a Library
Administration Certificate in'
1930. soon after she returned to
Ontario to begin work at Ethel. In
1941 Heron County Library
Association, was formed
consisting of 14 tidal communi-
ties. Each community library
received a unit of 16 books. In
1945, Mrs. Eckmier took on the
responsibility of the Huron:,_
County Library Co-operative"
which was run from their own
house on Newgate Street. By
1946, there were , 31 deposit
libraries and at that time tl
received a grant front Hurah
County Council of $2;000. 1947
marked a new era 'as the library
purohaserlAits first van, appropri-
ately, named "Miss Huron". It
carried about 1,000 books' and
was decorated.with gold coloured
letters. 'Eckmier acted as
driver- -,kir the 'van. Each deposit
received $40‘• from Council ; $25.
of this was used as an annual fee
for the Hem County Libary
Association. -Other activities of
1947 included a banquet for the
County staff. It is hard to imagipe
what life was like in those days.

Wibbina Bylsma of RR 1 Blyth
who works in Dr. R.W. Street's

situation is "rotten".
She thinks.that first of all they
should forget the . two year
program and get back to three
years.
"They put out too many nurses
too fast," Wibbina said.
She doesn't agree with the 50
day work stipulation and said, "If
they start that, they're going to
have all the nurses applying for
part time work,"
Carol Lawrie of Blyth who is a
registered nurse and works at
Huronview about four or five days
in the summer and two or three
days ,in. the winter doesn't agree
with the propoSal either.
Young Children
She said it was hardly fair for
those who had young children to
loOk after or for those who had to
quit for health reasons.
• "Refresher. courses I can see. I
can't see why they can take your

said.
As for the nurses having to take
