developed, mainly by adding more public
beaches and. campgrounds. Tourists are
thought by most to be very important to the
economy of the county, but those questioned
tended to be less enthusiastic about the
presence of tourists than about the revenue
they produce.
7. There is still a clear ambivalence in
county household heads regarding the
establishment of central schools and a con-
solidated school board. Opinion is almost
evenly divided on this issue, with 85%
holding to the same view they had when the
issue first came up./The chief arguments ad-
vanced are increased costs by the opponents
of centralization and higher quality
education by its advocates.
8. Three quarters of the respondents feel
that people now have less control over
decisions that affect them than they used to
have. This development, described as a very
bad thing by most, is seen as most
noticeable in education policy, farm
marketing and county and municipal gover-
nment. However, only 13% can claim to
have made any effort themselves to in-
fluence a policy decision in the last twelve
months.
-9. Two-thirds .of those interviewed noted an
increase in the number of families not far-
ming in the coAnty. Opinion was split as to
whether this is a healthy or unhealthy
'development, Similarly, while almost
.everyone thought agriculture would remain
Huron County's main industry, only about
half the sample said they would be unhappy
if that were not the way things turned out.
10, Much of the county's history can be seen
in the fact that while 65% of the sample had
had farmer fathers, only 33% are now far-
ming, A part of the future may be seen in
that over a third of those classed as farmers
are now working at a part-time job off their.
own farms, Of these, almost half are
engaged in such work steadily. Most of those
working part-time plan to continue, and are
using the money to increase family income
rather than to improve the farm,
11, Television is the medium preferred for
entertainment by the sample, but
newspapers are ranked ahead of it as the
source of news and opinion which has the
greatest effect on people's thinking,

More wheat exported
The Ontario Wheat
Producers' Marketing Board
announced a further export sale
of 475,000 bushels of 1972 crop
No. 2 grade stocks owned by the
board.
K,A, Standing, secretary-
manager of the marketing board
said the most recent sale brings
total sales of 1972 crop board
purchases to a record 5,453,965
bushels, Total purchases in-
cluding 77,148 bushels of 1971
crop carryover also mounts to
an all time board record volume
of 6,369,700 bushels.
Remaining stocks, Mr. Stan-
ding said, are made up of ap-
proximately 260,000 bushels of
No. 2 grade and about 650,000
bushels of sample grade. The
sample grade resulted from
sprouting conditions of the
wheat at harvest time.
The previous highest volume
handled by the Ontario Wheat
Producers' Marketing Board
was reached during the 1970-71
crop year when 5,155,000
bushels went through the
board's purchase and export
sale system.
The 1971 census figures recen-
tly released placed Ontario win-
ter wheat acreage at 340,953
compared to 341,386 acres
recorded for the 1966 census. It
was also revealed that there
were only 14,966 Ontario farms
producing winter wheat accor-
ding to the 1971 census com-
pared to 20,348 in 1966.

REMEMBRANCE DAY SERVICES
NOV 1 I, 1972
Once again, we are approaching Remembrance Day, that special day set aside each year to
• honor and remember our comrades and relatives who gave their lives in order that we may have
freedom. Those of us who were fortunate to come back from the wars and those of us who en-
joy the freedom they gave their lives for have a sacred duty to see that the disabled veterans
and the families of those who died will know no suffering. Many of these veterans are gainfully
employed in 'our various veterans craft hospitals making wreaths, poppies and key tags which
you purchase.
Veterans are helped in many other ways including Service Bureaus, Department of Veterans
Affairs, government legislation, and in our area, Westminster Hospital and by Legion Branches
throughout Canada through the Poppy Fund, The Fund is solely for veterans in distress and is
administered by each branch. The money can be put to no other use,
This year, we have purchased a film on Remembrance which wilt be shown in five schools in
our area and is available, free of charge, to any interested Organization, The 25 minute, 16 m.m.
film depicts a young lady's impressions of a trip to her father's grave in Holland. There is also
some footage on the Dieppe Raid and the D-Day landing in France,
Next Fall, we will be making available at least $500 for bursaries to progeny and/or depen-
dants of veterans who require financial assistance for education beyond secondary school.
Our annual Poppy Drive will start at 7 p.m. on November
ninth with Branch 140 in charge of both the Clinton and
Vanastra areas.
On Saturday November 11, we will hold our annual service at
the Legion Hall commencing at 9:30 a.m. Anyone wishing
return transportation to the Service is advised to watch next
week's News-Record for telephone numbers.
Service at the cenotaph will be at 11:00 a.m.
On behalf of all area veterans, we thank yoti for your
previous support.
