Where? Your local UIC office.What will you need? Proof of your identity. If you were born in Canada, you'll need a primary document like a birth certificate or a baptismal certificate from Quebec. Naturalized Canadians need their citizenship certificates. If you're a landqd immigrant you'll need your im- migration papers. Originals or certified copies are needed. You'll also need secondary identification. It can be something official with your name on it, like a driver's licence or a school report card. Here photocopies are fine. You don't want these important documents lost or misplaced.Thats why we ask you to go, in person, to your local UIC office.They'll ap- prove your documents on the spot, help you with your application and send it to Ottawa.You can take your documents home right away. You'll get your Social Insurance Number card in the mail. If you can't get to a UIC office you can go to a Canada Manpower Centre or you can mail your application direct to Ottawa. But you'll have to send original documents or certified copies. And if there are problems with your ap- plication or documents it's going to take longer to iron them out than it would face to face in a local office. Establishing your identity is the best way to make sure your Social Insurance Number stays with the right person. And that's pretty important.

Institute members attended the Huron Country Playhouse production of "Plaza Suite" and the majority found it most lacking in good taste, par- ticularly the first two "skits". The third one was excellent with nothing to offend, and so very funny. Sure - the others were funny but instead of just a good healthy "damn" it was always prefaced by "G..." which our members found most distasteful, Not only that but the name of Jesus Christ was also taken vain several times, If the Huron Country Playhouse wants to please those who find this type of language distasteful they better stop using it. As far as the acting was concerned it could not have been better and the set was excellent. Some of us are looking forward to "George Washington Slept Here" which the Sunshine & Busy Buddies Groups of the Senior Citizens Club will attend on August 10, leaving the hall at 1 p.m• but we hope the language will be more acceptable. The Institute enjoyed very much the smorgasbord supper at the Village Inn, following the heatre, as will the members of the Sr, Citizens Club, when they attend in August. President Lillian Ashton thanked the convener, Iva M. Hodgins, for making the necessary arrangements for tae outing, and called for a discussion re the "Penny Sale" at the Lions Club Fair. It was decided by a unanimous vote to discontinue the Perny Sale and each member contribtte $5 to the funds in lieu of the gilts they would bring and the time spent in the booth, Thcse members ' not present will be notified and hopefully, will be in accord with the decision, The new official plan for the village of Lucan is nearing completion. Council will be meeting with the planning board in the next week or two to review the proposed plan completely, The plan is being formulated by Liz Howson of James F. MacLaren Limited. A preliminary report gives some information oh the amount of land used for various purposes. Of particular interest is the fact 331 acres or 59.9 percent of the Work meetings at .UC each day Members and friends of Lucan United Church are reminded of the work meetings held each day at the Manse. Work is progressing, but more hands will make it go faster. There are jobs to be done that only men can do, particularly someone handy with the saw, hammer and nails! Call 227-4674 or 227-4571, or 411 for the new Church-Manse number, for further information.

Craig investigated a disturbance on the Main Street of Lucan. Several area youths have been . questioned and charges are pending. Peltdogeila Belinda Avery has arrived, home after a week's holidays with Helen and Gerald Lewis in Goderich. Bernard and Daniel Avery, and Jeff and Donny Liley and Jeff Niven arrived home Monday morning at 3.45 a.m., London Airport after 10 days in P.E.I. with the Canadian Scout Jam- boree. They were tired but happy and enjoyed their trip immensely. Troop leader Henry Kaene gave up his regular holiday time to accompany the Lucan boys to the jamboree. Mr. & Mrs. D.E. Langmani Sunset Bay, Port Colborne, and Clearwater Florida, were weekend guests with Mr. & Mrs. M.H. Hodgins. Mr. & Mrs. Brian Munro have returned from a fishing holiday at Lake Nipissing. Michael and Matthew spent the week with Mrs. Munro's sister in Dutton. Mr. & Mrs. William Munro of Ridgetown accompanied Brian and Sandra, returning with them for a brief visit in Lucan. Mr. & Mrs. Albert McLennan,. Etutrecht, Holland are guests with Mr. & Mrs. Frank Goring for a month. The Sacrament of Holy Bap- tism was celebrated on Sunday at Holy Trinity Anglican Church for Erin Brenda, infant daughter of Sue and Bill Haskett. Erin's aunt, Brenda Haskett, acted as God Mother and Stephen Rosser her uncle, as God Father. Rev. John Hofland conducted the service, following which a family reception was held at the home of the parents. total acreage of 553.7 acres is used for agricultural purposes or is vacant. Single family residences use tip 156 acres. Next in line come parks at 26 acres. Industrial uses 14.2 acres; 13,4 acres are used for commercial and 10,3 acres for institutions. In response to a survey carried out during the plan formation, 39 of 48 questionnaires. were returned showing that the ter- tiary sector is expanding. In 1971 the Census indicated that there were 17 retail operations and 20 service operations in Lucan and by 1977 the number of operations had increased to 21 retail and 28 service, The major portion of the respondents indicated that they have established their own new operations, or bought existing operations since 1961. Of these 30 percent have un- dertaken some type of expansion since 1971 and 18 percent plan a major expansion in Lucan, if possible, in the foreseeable future. These plans appear to be based on the size of the market area as 51 percent indicated that market size or location was their reason for locating in Lucan. The market size of most operations (68 percent) was generally indicated to be Lucan, Biddulph and parts of the other surrounding town- ships such as West Nissouri and London Township. A number of people also in- dicated that they benefited from the through traffic along High- way 4. Finally, another indicator of the importance of the tertiary sector to Lucan is the number of people employed. The respon- dents to the survey indicated that they employed 124 fulltime employees. The market analysis for Lucan also seems to indicate that the tertiary sector will be expanding. This analysis relied upon the results of the London Centred Retail Study which covered a broad area around London in- cluding Lucan, and a basic trade area analysis, The London Centred Retail Study indicates that Lucan is located in an area which had one of the highest incomes per capita in the London Region in 1976. Total retail expenditures were also very high, as were projected levels of expenditures to the year 1986. The high per capita income and expenditures in the Lucan area indicated large potential market. However, a shopping survey carried out for the Retail Study shows that a large proportion of all expenditures in the Lucan area, compared with other parts of the Region, take place in London rather than 'the Lucan area itself. . The trade area analysis for Lucan also indicated a large potential market in Lucan and the surrounding area. This analysis indicates total potential expenditures in 1976 of $7 million as compared with actual retail sales of $2.3 million for Lucan in 1971 which, when adjusted up- ward to account for inflation and sales growth, would only equal $3 million, These figures, of course, cannot be regarded as being totally accurate. However, it indicates that there is potential for growth of the retail and service trades in Lucan. July 14, 1977 Page13 iAmoArri by *.xfOtty Hamilton Mail you* problems to "Im- pact" c/o this paper.
