A committee of Exeter council last weep recom- mended that the four area municipalities of Exeter, $tephen, Hay and Usborne form a committee of elected officials to study the situation regarding a home for the aged in South Huron. Al Epp, who chaired the committee, said it was felt that a citizens' committee is not warranted at the present time, but the reeve or deputy-reeve of each of the four municipalities should form a committee that would be able to keep the municipalities informed of the situation. It was recommended that the appointment of the committee members be left to the new councils in the municipalities. Committee member Lossy Fuller added tha some studies are already un- derway regarding the need for such a facility and it is not necessary to duplicate this work. Epp noted that a feasibility study has been prepared by the Huron-Perth hospital administrators' working group and when it is available, will evaluate the ability of the present ser- vices to meet the future long term care needs of residents in Huron. He said the committeetobe established by the municipalities could en- tertain any thoughts presented by other local citizen groups. He added that the municipalities should wait for the hospital ad- ministrators' report and "shouldn't move ahead too fast." A letter was also received at the meeting from W.R. Alcock, secretary of the Huronview committee of management, indicating they have no plans at the moment for expansion of facilities in the county, but that they will keep Exeter informed of any suchneeds or other pertinent information. However, Alcock added that if a need for aservicecan M111111111 111111111111111111111111111111111111.

Wingham, was elected president of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture, the first woman to hold that position, at the federation's annual meeting in Brussels on Thursday. Mrs. Fortune, who farms in Turnberry Township with her husband Doug, has been first vice-president of the federatiori for the past two years. John Van Beers, RR 1 Blyth, was elected first vice- president of the organization. and Tony McQuail, RR 1 Lucknow, is second • vice- president. The three directors-at - large elected at the annual meeting were Bev Brown of RR 1 pluevale, Walter Elliott of RR 1 Lucknow and Jim Hunter of RR 1 Belgrave. About 300 people attended the annual meeting and banquet held at'the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Centre. The guest speaker was Gordon MacMurchy, Saskatchewan Minister of Agriculture, who told federation members about cbritrols on the purchase of farmland in his province by non-residents and cor- porations. - Before .Mr.-MacMurchy's speech, the federation presented the Huron County Federation of Agriculture Free calls to MPPs Province-wide toll free access to your local member Of the Provincial Legislature is now available to all citizens of Ontario. This significant new development in Ontario's program to ensure that all citizens can contact key resources in Government at no charge, became effective October 1, Ontario Minister without Portfolio Alan Pope said. In June, the concept of toll free access for constituents to their members, no matter where they live in the riding, was approved. Of the 125 members, 58 represent con- stituencies where long dis- tance calling is necessary in order to reach the con- stituency office. In each in- stance the member's telecommunication needs were analysed and discussed and the most appropriate and cost effective method was agreed upon. Constituency offices will , be listed in the Ontario Government section of the blue pages in the next edition of all telephone directories under the heading "Members ,of Provincial Parliament" and appear in alphabetical order according to constituency name, In some instances a particular constituency will be listed in several directories. The member's name is not part of the listing. In this way, when a pre- sent member no longer represents his or her con- stituency, the same office number can be assigned to the succeeding member thereby insuring accuracy and continuity in the blue pages listings. The next edition of each telephone directory will be published within the year starting with the London directory to be distributed in November. Citizens can now ask local directory assistance operators for the toll free number of their elected representative. This initiative is part of a government-wide program aimed at improving services and the provision of informa- tion to the public.

The recipient of the award, the third time it's been presented, was Norman Alexander of Londesboro. In presenting the award, Adrian Vos, of Blyth, said Mr. Alexander is well-known for this work campaigning, against soil erosion and pollution of the Great Lakes. Mr. Vos said the drainage commissioner for Hullett Township has been recognized by the Ministeries of Environment and Natural Resources for his crusade to save the en- vironment - a crusade carried out at his own ex- pense. • Russell Bolton, RR 1 Seaforth, associated with Mr. Alexander in county Hay meeting Continued from page 3 the township and that the people of the township do not know what really takes place at the council level. Geiger noted he had serv- ed on council for two years and said he would like to see improved communications between council and the ratePayere: :s ' Deichert 'stated he had served two years on council and didn't know whether this would be an advantage or disadvantage. Incoming reeve Mousseau said he realized the job would take a lot of time and that it would be tough filling the shoes of Tinney. "He's been a good man for the township," Mousseau stated about current reeve and former warden of Huron County. Wilder also paid tribute to Tinney who acted as chair- man of the meeting. He urg- ed farmers to submit their drain tileage loans quickly as there was only so much money available. At the close of the meeting Tinney thanked the people of Hay for their support over the years. Two cases for court Only two charges were heard by Justice of the Peace Douglas Wedlake in Exeter court, Tuesday. James Pelley, Thedford, was fined $103 and had his licence suspended for a period of 60 days after pleading guilty to driving while under suspension.

Mr. Bolton said when Norman Alexander joined the Soil and Crop Improvement Association, he was concerned with devising a means to ,obtain clean seed. He added Mr. Alexander, who operated a Londesboro seed cleaning plant for 30 years, operated the first place in the county where seed was cleaned and praised him "for helping to get pure seed out to farms." Before presenting Mr. Alexander with his award, Gerry Fortune presented Helen Alexander with a gift and praised her efforts in supporting Norman during his campaign. In accepting the honor, Mr. Alexander said he was reminded of a comment made by Mr. Bolton when both men were attending a Saskatchewan convention. Mr. Bolton had said, "The way they're putting trees into Saskatchewan,...they're going to have more trees than we have in Ontario." Norman Alexander said the challenge facing farmers today is to do more for our land. He added, "I hope you (federation members) can direct your efforts to soil and the management of soil." Firemen get $400 Members of the Huron Park unit of the Stephen township fire department have raised over $400 for Muscular Dystrophy in a very unique way. Recently members of the unit set up voluntary tolls to the entrances into Huron Park and to Dashwood Industries.
