It was pointed out municipali- ties in this area could take ad- vantage of this program and he urged them to apply. He said the main object of the program was to "balance things out" by removing some of the concentration from large urban areas to areas not bless- ed with industries. He said this was not arrest- ing the growth of urban areas, but was merely arresting some of the problems they face when development gets out of hand. He said the program may well provide the basis for develop- ment of Ontario. Don Early, chairman of the ODC board of directors, told area municipal officials his or- ganization was looking forward to helping area municipalities. pp 0 ... and thanks for the privilege of serving you at Bars Barber Shop Main South Exeter Gifts piled high 'neath a glittering tree . . . the happy sounds of children • .. it's Christmas, and the time for joyous celebration with loved ones.

COMMENDS COLLEAGUE Agriculture Minister William Stewart was also in attendance and pointed out a great deal was owing to Mr. MacNaughton for his leadership in the development of Centralia. "If it wasn'tfor the enthusias- tic vigor of Charlie I doubt we would see the progress indicated here today," he stated. He introduced Dr. D. M. Hunt- ley, director of agriculture edu- cation for Ontario, and predicted Dr. Huntley would agree there are no finer agriculture school facilities in Ontario. He also paid tribute to the work of school director Jim Mac- Donald, He's just started and his plans have fantastic possibil- ities," Mr. Stewart reported... Noting that Centralia would not be a research school, he said the emphasis was on farm management and that a great deal could be accomplished by working with farmers in the com- munity for practical purposes. "This is a new departure and I think it's going to work," he said. Stephen Reeve Hayter and Ex- eter Mayor Delbridge both com- mended the ODC for their work in developing Centralia.

He said this would result in the loss of a "good portion" of the park. In the conservation area s advisory report by Robert Love, it was noted that the charging of admission to Authority parks had resulted in "enough funds to pay for administering the policy, plus a respectable net profit of $1,600 which will help our balance of payments re; maintenance costs consider- ably". Total attendance at the parks for 16 weekends was close to 42,000 people, Love reported attempts to ac- quire more land in the Rock Glen area have not been successful as land owners "double their price" when approached. "That's human nature." he said. Similar lack of progress was reported regarding the proposed development of the Sand Hills near Hensall into a winter rec- reation area. He said it hadn't been possible to determine how grants could be received without acquiring own- ership of the property, while the owner "has very valid reasons for being unwilling to sell the property". The property was offered last year for ski and toboggan runs. ii,ftezieicee•I;e',evq:ersteeterAIetleilsAies?A'atte' Here comes Santa with a sleighful of merriest Christmas wishes for our many kind friends and all those they hold dear.
