That is only one thing in the museum, but they attract much attention. There are many there that you will not find in any other place in the world." There are 6, 000 ar- ticles on display at the museum, "As a member of the his- toric committee," said Reeve Frank Walkom, Goderieh, "I would like to compliment Mr. Neill. I had friends visit the museum in the past year, and one of them intrigued by the flour -manufacturing process shown, called it unique. We are very fortunate in having a man of the calibre of Mr. Neill, who does not regard his 'time as valuable, but he is a valuable asset to the town and county." Report of the committee was presented by Reeve Alvin D. Smith, of Turnberry. "We re- ported some time ago that we had received a bequest from the Gavin Greet estate, and we intend to erect a plaque in memory of the late Mr. Green, in acknowledgment not only of the bequest but also to remind people of a fine gentleman.

"During last month," she said, "we opened or reopened 10 new protection cases. These are the new families we are working with to keep the chil- dren with their parents. This is the most hectic part of our work, and Mrs, Ross does the most of it. If the case islike- ly to come to court, Mrs. Ross is the one who handles it, and she does a truly wonderful job. " This part of our work is very important, because it costs far more to take a child into care than to leave him in his own home. We are very grateful to the municipalities who understand this and assist the family financially over a difficult time. Poverty and dirty homes are not included in the definitions of neglect." Lack of Gravel Raises Cost of Cold Mix Road by W. E. Elliott GODERICH—For a first time in many years, Huron County's highway account will show a surplus, County Engineer James Britnell predicted in amplify- ing his prepared report to coun- cil last Tuesday. "We have spent to date ors our bylaw $912,650," he state "I am assuming a total at end of the year of $1,060,000, not including. development roads. We have $35, 000 surplus under our own bylaw (only half of that is county money), and I would expect this will produce a county surplus. There may be $30,000 surplus in highway funds, depending upon how much snow we get, and it is the first year in a good many that we have been able to show a surplus." The road committee, of which Reeve Glenn Webb of Stephen is chairman, recom- mended that the 1963 commit- tee interview the Minister of I tighways and request full de- signation for six and a quarter miles of County Road 12, Brus- sels to Highway 86, which is only designated at present for pre -engineering, A bylaw to expropriate the land required for widening has been prepared for presentation at the present session, County Road 12, Seaforth to Brussels, 15 miles, has been fully designated for pre -engin- . jeering and construction. Prop- s erty has been purchases and fences erected where required. Most utility lines have been relocated: Reconstruction of Road 12 in Seaforth was approved and scheduled for 1962, but asani- tary sewer to be constructed by 0 --Photo by Connell Vows at Bluevale Knox Presbyterian manse, Bluevale, was the scene of an interesting late fall wedding at 2 p.m. Saturday when Rev. T. E. Kennedy united in matri- mony Phyllis Harriet Elliott and James Alvin Gamble. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Elliott, `Blue - vale, and the groom's parents are Mr, and Mrs. Lorne Gam- ble, Atwood. The bride, given in mar- riage by her father, wore a floor -length gown of white or- ganza over taffeta with lili- point sleeves and a scalloped neckline of lace and sequins. Silk organza rosettes adorned the back of the skirt. Her flowers were red and white roses. Her attendants were Miss Ruth Grainger of Gorrie asmaid of honor and Miss Carol Robert- son, Bluevale, bridesmaid. They wore identical street - length dresses of turquoise nylon over taffeta with gold accessories. They carried yel- low and white mums. The groom was attended by Mr. Jack Gamble of Galt and Mr. William Gamble of Blue - vale. A reception was held for 30 guests at the home of the bride's parents, where her . mother received in a turquoise 2 -piece wool suit with white accessories. Her corsage was of white mums. The groom's mother, who assisted, wore a dress of black lace over white taffeta with red accessories, and her corsage was red roses. Guests were present from Corn- wall, Atwood, Listowel, Roth- say, Kitchener and Wroxeter. They included the groom's grandmother, Mrs. Maybury of Atwood. The couple left for a wed- ding trip to Northern Ontario, the bride travelling in a royal blue suit with white accessories and a corsage of white mums. They will reside in Listowel. the town was delayed. It is to be completed early in 1963. Reeve Alvin Smith of Turn - berry enquired about an experi- mental stretch of paving not mentioned in the report. This is a mile and quarter north of Brussels on County Road 12, from Morrisbank Corner to Highway 86. The method, new for the county, is use of limestone chips in cold mix. "At last we are feeling in Huron a lack of good, well graded gravel," Mr. Britnell reported. " To my knowledge there are only about three open pits known right now, and trucking 18 or 20 miles raises the cost of cold mix to$18,000 or $20,000 a mile, In the in- terests of conserving gravel we have left it for the More im- portant roads. I would strong- ly hope that this experiment May serve as a good example at 64, 000 a smile. It has been done in other counties for years and by towns over small ateas, and we are one of the last to have a source of material and start using it." Wingham Advance'Times, Thursday, Nov, 29, 1962 -*Page 23 Far Business Reports By Machine Possible GQPERICH,The dairy situ- ation "might be considered the worst we have in our agricul* rural program at the moment," agricultural representative Douglas Miles told county coun- cil last Tuesday in an oral in'- terpolation to his prepared re- port.. "I would not suggest that a dairy farmer who is set up, gA out of dairying and get into feed," he said, "but I also would not encourage any beef man at the present tune to change to dairying, unless in certain circumstances that would almost force him into it, "I do not'think there is any need for alarm, but there is a great deal of work that has to be done by the dairy groups in ironing out some of thesepro- blems. It is not anything caused by Ontario, but is an overall Dominion picture, Ontario is a high producing province. Dairying means as much to Ontario as wheat to the West. "We have had quite a switch to dairying over 10 years, and yet we produce only about what we require in Ontario, as far as dairy production is con- cerned." Mr. Miles announced that his assistant, ID, G. Grieve, is leaving at end of this month to become assistant professor of dairy cattle production in the animal husbandry department of the Federated Colleges, Guelph. About the first of December the agrieultural offices will be Moving to new leased quarters adjacent to the I,G,A, store in the Lavis Block at Clinton, IBM POSSIBILITIES "It may not be too long be- fore we will be analyzing our farm business operations elec- tronically on I.B.M. machines; Mr. Miles predicted. Hemen- tioned a test at Guelph, when data fed into the machineeame up with the answers to numerous questions in one minute and ten seconds. "Before another year rolls around," Mr. Miles said, "it could be that we can give a farmer a report of his farm busi- ness at the end of each month of the year and within a few days after the end of the year a complete report. They may have to pay for the service, This program is still in the ex- perimental stage, but it would appear that it will be worked out so that it can be an advan- tage to our farm people.
