form Huron county affiliate
On Saturday, May 8, at 9:00 a.m., •
at the Wesley -Willis United Church,
Clinton, an organizational meeting
will be held to establish a Habitat
for . Humanity affiliate in Huron
County.
Habitat for Humanity is a non-
profit, non-government organization
dedicated to eliminating poverty
housing. Habitat believes that
everybody should have, at least, a
simple, decent place to live. Habitat
solicits donations of money, labor
and building material and uses these
to build or renovate homes for
families in need. These families are
required to help with construction
of their own or other Habitat
families homes as a condition to
receiving a home. Families are
required to pay for their home by
way of an interest tree mortgage of
up to 20 years. The family's
mortgage payments are returned to
a revolving fund which is used to
build more homes for more
families.
The purpose of the May 8 or-
ganizational meeting will be to
explain how a Habitat affiliate
operates and to find persons
interested in serving on a temporary
steering committee, or one of the
sub -committees within the Habitat
organization. Persons are needed to
help on the following committees:
fundraising, public
relations/publicity, site selection,
finance, family selection, building,
family nurture, volunteers.
For more information call Allan
Dettweiler at 887-6098.

Help stop smuggling
Crime Stoppers of Grey Bruce
and Canada Customs are seeking
the public's assistance for infor-
mation in cases of smuggling goods
into Canada.
Every year millions of dollars of
alcohol, tobacco products, illicit
narcotics and other items are smug-
gled into Canada. Much of this
contraband is brought into Canada
via highway. All types of vehicles
are used and the smuggled items
are hidden in many varied and
ingenious ways. Often' boats and
'small planes are used to transport
large quantities of alcohol and
illegal drugs to locations not
controlled by Canada Customs.
A great deal of the smuggled
tobacco products and alcohol are
sold in Ontario resulting in high
profits for the smuggler and causing.
more concerns for the citizens of
the province. As well as the
physical and emotional abuse to the
individual and their family caused
by the misuse of drugs and alcohol,
the community suffers as well,
when other crimes are committed to
support these habits, and local
businesses lose profits due to lower
sales.
If you have any information about
anyone involved in smuggling
goods into Canada, or any other
crime, Crime Stoppers of Grey
Bruee arewilling to pay a reward
up to $1000 for any information
leading , to an arrest. Call Crime
Stoppers toll free at 1-800-265-
3787. You will not have to testify
in court, and you could be eligible
for a cash reward.

Fees for safety
certificates
increase for
stations
Effective Apr. 19, the Ministry
of Transportation is increasing
the fee it charges motor vehicle
inspection stations for safety
standard certificates.
The increase, the first in five
years, will help recover the costs
associated with supplying the
certificates- to the inspection
stations and keep government
expenses clown.
Inspection stations will now
pay $5, up from $1, for each
certificate they purchase from
the ministry. The stations then
issue the certificates to vehicles
that pass safety inspections con-
ducted at their stations. These
inspections are necessary to
ensure a vehicle is roadworthy
before transferring its ownership.
It will be up to individual
stations to determine whether or
not they will pass on the
increase to their customers.
Currently inspection stations
charge the public between $50
and $80 to inspect a vehicle for
safety certification.

show how to
prevent injuries.

. who died in Canada last year died
