Upsurge in foreign ownership documented There has been a upsurge in foreign absentee owner- ship of farmland in. Huron and south Bruce counties during the last six years. A study done at the request of the Huron County Federa- tion of Agriculture by the University of Guelph's rural outreach program shows for- eign absentee ownership of farmland increased to 10,000 acres in 1980 from 5,300 acres in 1975. The study is of Huron County and the Bruce County townships of Huron, Kinloss, Carrick and Culross. Foreign ownership in the study area spurted even fur- ther in the last year, accord- ing to Tony Fuller co-ordina- tor of the U of G rural outreach program. He says it's too early to draw conclusions from the growing trend, but "we're looking very closely at Hump township in south Bruce County north of Ashfield" where three foreign owners have acquired 7,000 acres in the, last year. Mr. Fuller says Europeans may be acquiring farmland in this area for several reasons, which include speculation, bargain prices in comparison to Europe and fear of political unrest abroad. "One of the surprises that : is confusing the issue is that a 'lot of the people that buy from overseas come over here and start farming eventually," he adds. A seven-person survey group, headed by Julius Mage of the U of G, updates its findings about every six months. VCIOOGly F©110 5cAugicicaru CDI.Wb@oi at 2:00 p.m. in the 1.0.0.F.

Arena FIGURE SKATE IT'S HEALTHY (Don't forget our dance - Nov. 14) IT'S FUN People we know In last- week's Brussels Post, a picture of Mrs. Ken. Tyennan helping the Brus- sels Leos prepare for Coliect- ing for the Arthritis Society was mistakenly identified as Marie MtTaggart, The Brus- sels Post apologizes for this error and Any inconvenience It ma* have caused: Anniversary Services were held in the United Church Sunday, Oct. 18 at 11 a.m. and 8 p.m. Rev. Lloyd Martin was in the pulpit. The. Theme was 124 years of witness and service in the Church. The ladies trio, "Have I done my best 'for Jesus" was ably given by Mrs. Marie Strong, Mrs. Alberta Ferguson and Mrs. Jackie Gowdy. The sermon, Preaching the Word took us back 124 years when this church was begun, tracing the history of the church up to the present. Rev. Martin gave vivid pictures of the early. church here from the first service held in the home of Mrs. Greer to later services held in the sawmill where the first two badies were baptized, then in Orange Hall and then the school, was built in 1857 services were held there until in 1860 the new church was built. In these days we would smile for while the church was solidly built on the present site where our brick church stands today, it was four plain walls, no seats or pews only rough planed planks on blocks to sit on without back or cushions,, but all the settlers came and worshipped here and many glorious reunions were held. At that time mail which often took months to come was handed out at church services. There was no news- papers word was spread by mouth of weddings, new settlers coming in or illness and death. As years rolled on he told of the growth of the congregat- ion and how in 1892 the cornerstone of our handsome brick church was laid. The following January, it held opening service 'and Rev. Kelly from Phil., D.D. a former Gorrie bOy preached, over $2000 was subscribed and the debt was paid entire- ly. There' has never been a mortgage of this church or G•orrie church 124 Correction NOW. WATCH CLOSELY — Area .children attempted to make a dog out of a ,balloon when watched in fascination as Abra the Magiclown he appeared at the Brussels library parsonage as it -was called then. Mr. Martin then said we review with pleasure the early history but as we remember, we must live in the present and look forward to the future.., The benediction and choral Amen closed the service. Refreshments were served in the Sunday School rooms by the U.C.W. The evening service was poorly attended. A full choir 'was on hand and rendered a beautiful anthem. Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Mann sang a duet accompanied by Lorne on the guitar. The minister continu- ed his meditation on Looking Ahead .for the Future. Mrs. Sheldon Mann presided at the organ for both services and Kendra Robertson at the piano at the morning service. • ,„Ec•s*.
