So you'd naturally expect the brand-new '69 cars shown here, to cost a lot more than last year. Fact is, many cars in this year's line-up from Chevrolet cost less, much less, than last year's models. For instance, the 2-door Impala, equipped with power disc brakes, Turbo Hydra-matic transmission, whitewalls, wheel covers and head restraints, plus a bigger motor than last year, is yours for $120.50* less than last year's figure. And comparable savings are waiting for you on many Nova, Chevelle and Camaro models. In other words, you can buy many of this year's cars at less than last year's prices.

Pattison, West Wawanosh, did not receive the full endorsement of Huron County Council meeting Friday to spend approximately $20,000 over the next few years to develop a park on the grounds in front of Huronview near Clinton. The Committee had suggested a program in conjunction with the University of Guelph County will pay extra for MODA '6 deficit With some degree of reluctance, Huron council agreed at Friday's sitting to pay MODA $5,445 for 1969 rather than the $5,000 membership fee as was the original agreement. MODA has been finding some financial difficulty in recent years and requires additional funds from all members to offset previous debts. Huron's share is $445. In the recent report to council it was announced that "The Province of Ontario have more or less taken over the operation of MODA for 1969 and have agreed to meet all financial obligations. In the meantime, however, there are outstanding debts from 1968 which must be shared by the participating municipalities." Council agreed it was their financial obligation to pay the additional charges but sought some assurance that next year's requisite might not be still higher. County representatives to MODA will be Warden Hayter, Roy Pattison, A.D. Smith, Mervyn Cudmore and Charles Thomas. Council agreed that scholarships at the University of Guelph be awarded to students from Huron County with the highest standing in combined semesters — one scholarship of $100 re the degree course; one scholarship of $100 re the Diploma Course; and $100 scholarship to the student with the highest standing at MacDonald Institute. Council also agreed that scholarships at Centralia College of Agriculture be awarded to New appointment at Huronview It was announced at Friday's session of Huron County Council that Chester A. Archibald has been appointed Administrator of Huronview, effective Sept. I. A native of the Seaforth area and presently treasurer of Brantford, Mr. Archibald's salary is reported at $10,000 per annum. Present administrator Harvey C. Johnston received his 15-year pin from the county during the session. Mr. Johnston will be retained in an advisory capacity from Sept. 1 to October 31; his salary will be continued until December 31 and his apartment at Huronview will be vacated by October 15. Since the government will no longer approve of an administrator living in a county home, another use will be found for the apartment. students completint, their junior year. Council asked that the County Development Committee give more study to their proposal that, council concur with a resolution from the United Counties of Northumberland and Durham that the provincial government continue to subsidize the warble fly program and make it mandatory for all municipalities in Ontario to carry out the regulations. whereby the students would interview the residents and staff at Huronview to determine the needs and from this study would prepare plans for a park area, probably to include lawn, trees, flowerbeds, pools, walkways, picnic areas, etc. Wingham Reeve Jack Alexander was opposed to such a large expenditure. "We're trying to save money now," he reminded council. Reeve Borden.

Hilliard Deputy Minister 26:3c ADVERTISE EVERY WEEK 101 6ectt tedaet4 The establishment of a Huron County welfare unit was scheduled for discussion at Friday's session of county council in Goderieh but councillors were cut short by the lateness of the hour at the end of a lengthy sitting. It is expected the whole matter will be completely reviewed by the executive committee which will prepare a recommendation in time for the September meeting. Some points were made in a brief space of time. It was learned that 50 percent of the cost of administration would be borne by the province if a county welfare unit was set up in Huron. As well, the province would assume 80 percent of the cost of welfare payments with the county paying the remaining 20 percent. Charles Thomas, Brussels, was assured there would be no charge back to the local municipalities for welfare payments. Clerk John Berry and Warden James Hayter said it was their understanding that there would be a levy through the county mill rate to cover all welfare expenses throughout the county. Stanley Reeve Elmer Hayter dian't like the idea of equalized welfare payments since his township presently has a very low percentage of welfare assistance. He said he didn't think Stanley ratepayers would be interested in paying a share of the county welfare bill. John Flannery, Seaforth, insisted it would be most difficult to administrate welfare assistance properly from a central point. He said that at times it was absolutely necessary to keep a close eye on welfare recipients to make certain the money they received was spent for the purpose intended. Other councillors concurred, noting it had been their experience to discover unpleasant realities with regard to welfare recipients and on occasion have felt it their duty to impose strict regulations with regard to them. There was strong indications that council is dubious of the county welfare unit because of recent experiences such as in the assessment department. Harold Robinson, Howick, wondered if the estimated cost of a welfare unit in Huron County was any more realistic than the estimated cost of county assessment had been. Anson McKinley, Stanley, asked council what reduction the municipal welfare officers, usually the reeve and the clerk, would be willing to take on their annual salaries if welfare was administered at the county level. This brought some hearty laughter. Mrs. Esther Ross of the Children's Aid Society who addressed council earlier in the day had explained the difficulty her department has contacting the local municipal welfare officers in times of emergency. She told council the ('AS worker often found it necessary to make decision regarding welfare payments, for instance in the case of a family without fuel over a cold holiday weekend, without contacting the local welfare officer,. Mrs. Ross said that in extreme cases, the responsibility for payment of the welfare assistance could fall to tin. CAS worker if his or her derision had not been in accord with what the local welfare officers would Times-Acivecato, July 3, 1969 11 1 I • I I • • eit • Question of welfare unit discussed; no decision yet concurred saying he was in favor of a park area with a few picnic tables, maybe a fountain for the kids to get a drink, some swings etc., something that could be built by the county alone without too much expense or trouble. Warden James Hayter said a plan was definitely needed "so we know where we're going". Chairman Pattison said the county already had a large investment at Huronview and he thought "another few thousand dollars would be money well spent", Alex McGregor, Tuckersmith, also a member of the committee, stressed the fact that the project would be accomplished over 10 years. He said he understood it was the duty of the county development committee to see that some development was made for the future. Exeter Reeve Derry Boyle said such a plan was "beyond our means" but he did suggest that a few trees be planted each year on the site. The whole matter was referred back to committee for additional study. have done in the same situation, Reeve Derry Boyle, Exeter, pointed out this would be one way in which a county welfare unit would be useful. It would alleviate problems encountered because local welfare officers are busy people with businesses and jobs to attend to so they cannot always be available for emergency consultation, Repairs begun at court house Huron County Council had an opportunity during Friday's session to view the repair work presently being done on the court house walls, Isbister Restoration Limited is at work to repair the exterior walls in a number of places where the mortar is becoming loose, allowing water to seep in. Total cost of the project is $24,060.10 with the cost to the county of $12,060.10 after the province chips in 49 percent of the expenditure. It will take about seven weeks to complete the job.
