the Angel". The intermediate

senior choir sang "Virgin Mary
had a baby. ’' The combined choirs
sang. “His name, His name”.
The setting for the pageant was
impressive. The choirs with their
white and blue gowns, and a huge
bluebackdrop with the pageant
title in shiny tinsel decorated
letters on it. The church was
beautifully decorated for the
Christmas season with garlands of
evergreen and red bows and two

New dental director sought for Huron, Perth
BY WAYNE STUBBS
Three reports presented to the
Huron County Council meeting in
the county court house in Goderich
on Thursday, December 3 were
virtually passed without discus
sion.
When the Board of Health report
was brought before the 31 -member
council (one member was absent)
the members were asked to
approve the re-advertisement of
the Case Manager’s job. The
reason given for again advertising
the position was that no satisfac
tory replies had been received to an
earlier advertisement.
In one part of the report Dr. M.
Bokhout, medical officer of health
told the council members that a
Philp and Leslie Wightman.
Since this was also White Gift
Sunday, the children brought gifts
wrapped in white suitable for
“Survival House” at Goderich.
Every child was in costume and
at appropriate times between the
choir numbers Mary and Joseph,
troops of beautifully dressed an
new dental director is to be
appointed to oversee both Huron
and Perth Counties. Presently
there is no one performing that
duty and there are some candi
dates being considered by Perth
County Council. Huron County
would have the same person doing
a similar job.
“The successful applicant
would have similar status to the
Medical Officer of Health," Dr.
Bokhout said.
On the subject of staff education
the doctor said that staff frequently
have to upgrade their education.
“It’s an evolutionary process that
people should take more courses at
regular times so they can be up to
date on their knowledge, ” he said.
gels, stars, wise men and shep
herds came up the centre aisle of
the church to take their place on the
platform.
Four boys from the grade 5 and 6
class acted as ushers, and follow
ing the service, boys of 7and 8 class
gave candy bags to all the children.
The Waste Management Steer
ing Committee report was accept
ed intact. The only question came
from Gerry Prout, reeve of Us-
borne Township who asked how
many proposals were being sub
mitted for consultants concerning
waste management. He was told
eight proposals had been request
ed and the committee would give
three or four of them further
consideration.
The Committee of Management
of Huronview report was also
accepted. One issue which raised a
few eyebrows was the request by
an employee for a leave of absence.
That was denied and county
council agreed with the committee
recommendation.
The service ended by all singing,
“JoyToThe World". Margaret
Kai presided at the organ with
Donna Walsh at the piano.
Susan Howson thanked the
many who helped make this
beautiful presentation successful.
Deanna and Harvey Snell were the
greeters.
Council members were asked if
they or people from the county had
some free time over the Christmas
period to visit Huronview and see
some of the residents.
