mittees for the township's repre-
sentatives on various committees
and boards when it held its

office on Thursday, Dec. 5.
Harold Errington was re-
appointed for a further three-year
term as the to aship representa-
tive to the Maitland Valley Conser-
vation Authority. Councillor Cecil
Cranston will be the township
representative on the Lucknow
Area and Joint Recreation commit-
tee. Deputy Reeve Bruce Raynard
will serve on the Lucknow Fire
Board and the Health Centre
committee. Reeve Jim Aichison
will also serve on the fire board and
on the Farm and Home Safety
Association. Councillor Rhea

Hall board and the West Wawa-
nosh Recreation Committee.
Councillor Gordon H. Brindley will

Centre board, the Blyth and
District Fire Area Board and the
West Wawanosh Recreation Com-
mittee.
Court of revision was held on the
Miller-Raynard Municipal Drain.
Wm. deBoer attended the meeting
to question his assessment on his
property for future maintenance of
the drain. Council noted that the
report shows assessment for main-
tenance will be based on outlet
assessment and Mr. deBoer's lot
is assessed for benefit only.
A. J. Sherwood was present to
complain about beavers in the
Young Drain (Sharpe's Creek) on
his property at lot 18, concession 3
and seek council's assistance in
removing them. The drainage
superintendent was later advised
of the problem.
The drainage supervisor also
noted that work on the Forster
Drain in the McQuail property will
be done as soon as possible this
fall. Work on the J. B. Young Drain
on the Stapleton property will be
It is just a little more than a
month since the Huron County
Historical Atlas was released and
already more than 2,300 of the 350
page books have been delivered to
purchasers in Huron and across
Canada.
In addition another 200 copies of
the atlas have been purchased and
are awaiting delivery instructions,
according to Goderich Township
Reeve Grant Stirling who headed
the county council committee
responsible for the production of
the atlas.
While in the days following the
initial release there were some
production delays which resulted
in disappointment for a number of
atlas purchasers, this now has
been resolved and the stock on
hand is sufficient to meet day to day
requirements. Officials at the
Court House in Goderich said the
demand for the atlas was steady.
They said in many cases the atlas
was being purchased as a Christ-
mas gift.
The atlas, containing nearly one
million words and 1,000 pictures,
includes 16 township maps show-
ing property owners, nearly 50
done in the spring.
The road superintendent ques-
tioned council about hiring part-
time help capable of handling snow
removal equipment especially dur-
ing bad weather periods. Councill-
ors Hamilton-Seeger and Grindley
moved that a rate of $5 per hour be
set for hiring part-time help for a
probationary period of four weeks
maps of towns, villages and
hamlets, lists of small lot owners
(under 40 acres). In addition the
stories of some 600 families,
organizations, churches and busi-
nesses as well as of 26 Huron
municipalities are featured in the
atlas. Copies are available at
$59.50 each at the Court House,
Goderich each week day Monday
through Friday. If delivery by mail
is desired an additional postage
and handling charge of $6.00
applies. Copies also may be
purchased at a number of retail
outlets in the county. Patrons and
others who have purchased an
atlas are urged to pick it up as soon
as possible as well as those who
loaned pictures are asked to
contact the atlas office regarding
delivery or pick-up.
Meanwhile, Mr. Stirling in
reporting to County council on the
project Nov. 27, said a $100,000
deficit is expected at the end of the
year.
However, he said, there will be
an inventory of 2000 atlases which
should cut the deficit in the long
term. Mr. Stirling said there may
still be a small deficit in the final
with council to consider an increase
after that point if the workers
performance was satisfactory.
The road superintendent also
said that the No. 2 grader was in
serious need of a motor tune-up
and this would likely be carried out
shortly.
The council concurred with a
resolution from the village of
accounting but said this is the first
time in 100 years the county had
undertaken such a big project and
would probably be the last for
another 100 years.
Total cost of publishing the atlas
came to $226,468 and sales to the
end of November totalled
$140,454.
Omemee which asked the provin-
cial government to fund municipal-
ities where the fire departments
are trained for CPR, First Aid, auto
extrication and traffic control. A
resolution from the Huron-Perth
County Roman Catholic Separate
School Board asking the provincial
government to do something about
the high judgements handed out by
the courts in liability cases which
are driving up insurance rates, was
also approved by council.
Council capped off the meeting,
so to speak, with a discussion on
whether or not to buy caps with the
township crest on them. The
Clerk's investigation showed that
the cost of manufacturing the
crests alone would run to more than
$3 each so the council decided not
to undertake any further promo-
tions. It was noted that pins and
spoons with the township crest are
still available from the township
clerk at a cost of $1 for the pins and
$2 for the spoons.
