Things like: the dreary routine of washing
and drying pots and dishes day after
day; the worry of dishpan hands, the
after-party aftermath; and the hours spent
doing dithes that could be spent In a
hundred happier ways,
Consider this, too. A lot of dirty dishes

Salaries for Huron County's department

of county council as reeves and deputy-
reeves went into committee of the whole
with the press present to discuss the mat-
ter:
Results were: Dr. G. Frank Mills,'
Medical Officer of Health, $32,000 from
$28,500; J. W. Britnell, county engineer,
$28,000 from $25,000; John Berry, clerk-
treasurer, $24,000 from $21,280; Bill

Residents of Huron County can look for-
ward to an increase in the 1975 road
budget if present indications are correct,
and chairman of the Huron County Road
Committee Joe Dietrich has warned there
could consequently be an' increase in the
mill rate for road purposes in Huron in the
new year.
"We ^ haven't. increased :the county'
monetary share of our budget for four years
while most of our costs have increased by
60 percent and more," Dietrich reported to
council. "If we are to mount any
meaningful construction program we must
have more money."
"We feel sure that some councillors will
be disappointed that some particular
project is not scheduled as early as they
would like or for that matter isn't listed at
all," the chairman went on to report.'"We
can only say that if sufficient funds were
available we could rebuild every gravel
county road in the county in the next five
years. But since the provincial share is
fixed at contributing about 60 percent of
the cost toward nine percent of our road
construction deficiencies each year, the
county would have to raise the balance at
the local level."
"In dther words, many projects would be
completed without a provincial con-
tribution and would require us to raise an
additional 12 million dollars over the next
five years or 2.4 million per year," the
chairmen said. "This is more than three -
times the amount we levy now and would
increase our road levy to 43,3 mills from
the present 10 mills - obviously not prac-
tical or possible."
Long range plans for road construction
$12,000; John MacKinnon, Social Services
director, $14,000 from $12,000; Ray Scot-
chmer, $11,500 from $8,800; and Jim
Sheardown, custodial staff, $11,500 from
$8,700.
A dental plan and an optical plan were
added to the employee benefits; persons in
the county employ for 10 years will now
receive five weeks • holidays with pay, not
four weeks as previously; and statutory
holidays now number 12, not 10.
Mileage rates for employees went from
$60 per month plus 10 cents a mile to $60
per month and 12 cents a mile. Casual
mileage was increased from 15 cents to 17
cents.
Council remuneration was also increased
and resurfacing were presented to council
as well as a forecast of bridge construction.
All were approved by members.
Top priority for road construction was
County Road 19 between Ethel and High-
way 86 for a distance of six miles ($360,000
estimated cost); County Road 30 between
Lakelet and Clifford for a ,distance
mites ($300,000); and: County Road 1 bet.

meeting discussing an official plan
for the township decided Thursday
night at Holrnesville.
Township residents agreed with
Heron County planners that on-
nexatkin is likely in the future and
could, in some cases, actually
benefit the township,
The meeting was the second in a
series of specialized workshops
designed to produce an official plan
for the basically-agricultural town-
ship which is bordered by Hayfield,
Clinton and Goderich,
Township deputy reeve Gerry
Ginn told about 60 ratepayers that
a 42-home subdivision in the town-
ship just south of Goderich is at
present providing the township with
a good share of tax dollars.
But, he said, if the unserviced
subdivision, which was established
in 1955 under the Veterans' Land
Act, were to demand full services
such as street lighting and sanitary
sewers, it would cost the township a

considerable amount a money to
maintain.
If however, the subdivision were
annexed, said , the Town of
Goderich would then have to pay
for whatever services were demon..
ded.
Several home owners in the sub•
division said they realized the
inevitability of annexation but
hoped it would not occur for several
years,
They were slightly comforted by
Goderich planning board member
Jim Magee who said the town has
no immediate plans to annex the
area but has long-range plans for its
development.
Huron County planning director
Gary Davidson said a recently-
approved $2.55 . million shopping
centre to be located along Highway
8 near the subdivision in the town-
ship might speed the growth of the
area and provoke annexation.
He,noted a plan of subdivision is
currently pending for another
housing development between the
existing subdivision and the
Goderich town limits,
