Monday morning he got a fresh pie from his baker, so we were all pleased. Also the bake shop could check up on his man, as 3 or. 4 days before that the store didn't have a cherry pie, so I took a different kind, so the mouldy pie hadn't been in his store when it went stale. We customers want to remember the store can't open and taste everything they sell, so if we don't tell them, how are they going to know what is bad or good. So it does pay to shop at home.

Mrs. 13ev Alexander, program con- vener, was in charge of the meeting of which the theme was "Christmas". The Scripture lesson, which was the Christmas story was read by Mrs. Jack Duncan. A story "What Is So Special About Mistletoe was told by Mrs. Bev Alexander. A musical number was enjoyed with Nancy Alexander at the piano and Janice Alexander on the guitar. A Christmas story "A Time For Receiving" was read by Mrs. Murray Dawson, and several Christmas carols were sung. Diane Stone showed pictures of her recent trip through United States and Western Canada, which was very interesting. Mrs. Alexander thanked Diane and presented her with a poin- settia. Mrs. Stewart conducted the business and Group I served lunch. In last week's issue the names Maybe jail won't come Maybe the walls around the exercise yards of the Huron County Jail won't be coming down after all. Goderich Reeve Paul Carroll asked county council to recon- sider the plan since the historical building may indeed have value as a tourist attraction in Huron. He suggested that some other alternative solution to the parking problem at the ad- ministrative building and at the Children's Aid Society should be sought, possibly in co-operation with the Town of Goderich. Chairman of the property committee, John Flannery, Reeve of Seaforth, said some alternate solution may have to be found. He indicated the project of taking down the walls of two exercise yards (there are five) at the jail may pose problems for which council had not originally bargained. Flannery said the construction is such that to remove a portion of the wall may entail a crumbling of other walls, Another problem has been the decision on how to remove a portion of the wall without leaving the remaining structure a kind of unpicturesque view "right there on Highway 21", The matter is to be restudied by the committee. In the meantime, plans are afoot to have representatives from the Department of Public Works and Correctional Services present at the next property committee meeting since if work is un- dertaken, it can be done under the Winter Works Program. Planning Director Gary Davidson reported that Huron's Official plan has gone to the Minister of Municipal Affairs for endorsation. The Planning Board received 100 percent support from the local councils for the document. Davidson said that Huron County is the first county in the Province of Ontario to submit an official plan, "This is a significant milestone," said Davidson, The executive committee of council reported it had met with J. X. Jamieson of the Ontario hospital Services Commission and learned that no hospital premiums are used for actual grant purposes, The grant program is a separate program funded directly by the province, of the CGIT leaders were omit- ted.

Furthermore, the amount of money to set aside each year will be determined by the 1972 council at the time of preparing the budget. Scholarships have been awarded, each for $100 to the following students at the University of Guelph: Raymond A, McBride, RR 1 Varna; Robert J. Gibson, RR 4 Gorrie; Miss Dianne D. Patterson, Seaforth. Derek (Rick) Ross Etherington, RR 1 Hensel', a student at Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology, ,also received a $100 scholarship, A report from county development officer Spence Cummings regarding the sale of CFB Clinton was heard by county council, "It must be realized that this is a major project and it will take a couple of years to become established," said Cummings. Tuckersmith Reeve Elgin Thompson called the sale a "terrific shot in the arm for Tuckersmith" and Warden Jack Alexander said that Cummings efforts over the past year are just "starting to bud out". Cummings indicated a renewed interest in the tourist industry in Huron as well as attracting in- dustry to individual municipalities. The Land Division Committee reported it had approved 29 severances; deferred 49; rejected 5; and closed out 2 with 16 pending.
