Which we were blinded and
frozen by the driving wind and
snow, we ran back toward
Exeter to seek shelter.
Luckily the wind was at our
backs and we were literally
blown to Tom Triebner s
farmhouse. Several loud knocks
brought no answer and finding
the door unlocked, we entered
to find the house without hydro,
heat and water. It afforded very
welcome shelter, though, since
some of us were beginning to
develop frostbite.
Later in the evening Mr,
Triebner returned home by
snowmobile and we spent the
evening playing cards by the
light of a kerosene lamp. Despite
the falling temperature in the
unheated house we slept
soundly.
Wednesday morning found
the storm outside worse, but the
hydro came on in mid-morning
and we had all the comforts of
home. While some of us helped
Mr. Triebner with the chores,
others dug out the car, and one
cooked dinner. After dinner we
again resorted to card-playing to
pass the time.
Late in the afternoon a group
of men came from town and
drove us- back to Exeter on
snowmobiles. Wednesday night
we were distributed among
several homes in Exeter. We
finally drove home to Huron
Park late Thursday morning.
Our impressions? It was the
worst snowstorm any of us had
ever seen, especially for the two
of us who have only recently
moved to Canada. We were all
impressed with the hospitality of
Mr. Triebner and the families we
stayed with in Exeter, and we
are very grateful to these people
and to the men who drove us
back to town,
Turn down
age proposal
Huron County Council turned
down a proposal from the Huron
County Federation of
Agrieulture which asked that the
policy referring to the retirement
age of county policy be changed
to permit persons of more than
65 years to hold part-time jobs
with the county.
By a recorded vote of 30-10,
councillors voted to retain the
present policy which states that
all persons be retired at the age of
65 years.
Reeve Charles Thomas of Grey
argued that it is often people of
65 years of age or more who are
"most qualified to do a job".
Mr. Thomas didnt suggest
that any preference be given to
older persons. He felt that
employees should be hired on
merit.
"Many persons over 65 have
many useful years left," said
Thomas. "We should not have a
hard and fast rule here."
Reeve Clarence "Derry"
Boyle, Exeter, disagreed.
"I think we should have a hard
and fast rule," said Boyle. He said
that if it is company policy to
retire employees at the age of 65
years, there will be no hard
feelings when the job ends.
Ed. Oddleifson, Bayfield reeve
asked, "Why should anyone be
automatically unemployable
because he is over the age of 65
years?"
Oddleifson said that retired
persons on a fixed income would
welcome a part-time job and
should not be denied that right to
work if work is available.
Harold Wilds, Wingham
deputy-reeve, said any good
business prepares for the
retirement of its senior
employees by bringing along
younger workers to take their
places. He said it was his feeling
that when a county employee
reached the age of 65 years, his
job would immediately become
available to someone else. If no
one stepped forward, the senior
person would be kept on until a
replacement was found.
This latter statement from
Wild brought an audible murmur
of disagreement from his
associates,
"You could keep them on but
you couldn't pay them according
to this policy," argued Anson
McKinley, Stanley deputy-reeve.
"My concern is for the libraries in
the county. A policy to retire
employees at the age of 65 could
very well have the effect of
forcing the closure of the small
libraries in the county. The
librar boerd has said it does not
'want this to happen."
"If there is so much
unemployment," Said
deputy-reeve Cecil Desjardine,
Dr. G. P. A. Evans MOH made
his last appearance before Huron.
County Council Wednesday
morning on the last day of the
January session. He brought forth
a preliminary sketch of the Board
of Health's budget for the coming
year before moving on to his new
post in Kitchener-Waterloo.
If county council would adopt
the full program suggested by the
board of health, it could increase
the health budget by about
$26,789.
Dr. Evans said the board of
health is proposing expansion of
the dental program in Huron;
expansion in the community
geriatric program; expansion of
the alcohol and drug addiction
service; and expansion of the
environmental hygiene program.
Although Dr. Evans kept his
remarks very brief, he did
elaborate a little at the invitation
of several county councillors.
A full dental program as
proposed, said the Medical
Officer of Health, would include
the services of a full-time dental
hygienist and a part-time (about
25 percent) public health dentist.
"The brush-in program is just
the beginning of the development
of a complete dental health
program in the County of
Huron," said Dr. Evans.
In the matter of alcohol and
drug addiction, the doctor said a
Stephen Township, "why 'is it so
hard to find part-time help?"
"Because you can't earn a
living with a part-time job,"
offered Charles Thomas.
"It helps," retorted
Desjardine.
Deputy-reeve of Ash field,
Eugene Frayne, said there would
be no trouble filling part-time
positions, even the positions of
librarians in the county.
Reeve Harold Lobb, Clinton,
wondered what was being done in
Huron to assist the addict,
"We are doing as good a job as
at the present time we are
equipped to do," said Dr. Evans.
He had high praise for the staff at
GPH who work more with
alcohol addiction than with drug
addiction because the latter is "an
extremely specialized service".
Patients abusing drugs usually go
to London for treatment.

Students to
produce film
At 288 public'aed high schools
all over Ontario, many hundreds
of enthusiastic Students have
turned producers, carrneramen
and actors, Their goal: to have
their film presented for the
thousands of visitors to Ontario
Place, beginninglate May.
Movie making has caught the
imagination of today's young
people. They bring to at the same
gusto that their parents had for
watching Saturday matinees at
the neighborhood movie holm.
With this in mind, the
Department of Trade and
Development invited Ontario
public and high school students
to produce their own
three-minute 8 mm color films,
portraying the communities in
which they lived.
In centres such as Kapuskasing,
1Vlindernoya, South Porcupine,
Manitouwadge, and over 100
other cities, towns andvillages in
the province, young film-makers
of all ages have accepted the
invitation and shooting's under
way, Their film handiwork will be
viewed by visitors to Ontario
Place, the new 96-acre showplace
in Lake Ontario, off Toronto's
Canadian National Exhibition
grounds.
Three area schools, South
Huron District High School,
Stephen Central School and
Zurich Public School are listed on
the circular from the Department
of Trade and Development but
Stephen principal Don
Finkbeiner said he hasn't heard
anything about it.
South Huron principal J. L.
Wooden said a little progress has
been made on the project by his
students but they were hampered
by lack of a regular camera.
