New exhibit planned
at Heritage Museum
The Lambton Heritage
Museum is erecting a se-
cond farm machinery
building for the housing and
display of agricultural im-
plements from Lambton's
past, The new building will
be 60' X 100', and will have
maintenance-free siding,
Total cost of the building
will be covered by a large
donation from the Richard
Ivey Foundation, a second
family bequest, and a
matching grant from Win-
tario.
Once the new museum
opened in May 1978, many
large implements were
offered from around Lamb-
ton County. The original
farm building at the new
museum site quickly
became full. Lambton is
such a predominately rural
County that the buildings
tell the major story in the
region's development.
Inside the main museum
building another new exhibit
is in the making. The con-
struction of an Industrial
Display area ) is being fund-
ed by a donation from
Discount Dave's — Conklin
Lumber.
The exhibit will outline the
various pioneer industries of
Lambton County, such as
salt, lumber and oil, and pay
particular attention to
woodworking tools, barn
framing, and similar con-
struction methods.

It is hoped that this, the
second Conklin donation to

Museum fund drive, will set
an example for corporate
sponsorship of museum
exhibits,
