To Renovate Staff Quarters At Huronview By W. E. Elliott GODERICH--Staff quarters on the ground floor of Huron - view will be renovated to pro- vide accommodation for bed - case residents, at a cost of $15,000, county council decid- ed, adopting a report from the home board of management. The department of public wel- fare will subsidize this tothe extent of 50%, said Reeve Clif- ford Dunbar of Grey, chairman of the committee. Superintendent Harvey John- ston, speaking later, said he had looked more thoroughly in- to costs, and the amount "might go to $18,000." Four of the staff are living in at pre- sent, he said. There have been seven or eight. Answering an enquiry by Mr. Dunbar, the superintendent said partitions between single rooms in the main part of the home could be taken out, clothesclo- sets removed, and accommoda- tion increased in that way. "We have in residence 205 people, and a number in hospi- tal," he reported. "In 1960 we had 105 -- exactly 100 more now. There are 83 male, 122 female. Just now there is a greater number of male appli- cations. Admissions this year were 58. At present, more are applying than we have beds for. "We have 23 residents under 60, an average of 49. In the 60-69 age group we have 20; from 70 to '79 there are 58. The 80-90 group, by far our largest, numbers 80. We have 23 be- tween 90 and 99, one lady over 100. The average age of those over 60 is 79." "How many paying resi- dents?" asked Reeve Tom Lei- per, Hullett. "Around 50'; Mr. Johnston estimated. Ag. Rep: Concerned For Purebreds By W. E. Elliott GODERICH--"We are rather worried about the decrease in purebred beef herds, and may have to get back on a scrub bull and scrub cow program," agri- cultural representative Doug. Miles said in his report tocoun- ty council. "At one time, Hur- on was noted for its excellent purebred beef herds, and our breeders supplied foundation stock for many herds in thepro- vince. A number of our pure- bred breeders have been forced into a commercial operation, and some of.us are concerned over the future of the cattle business. "I was in a farm the other day where no more than 235 pounds had been gained over 11 months, and that man got 15 or 16 cents a day for feed, labor and overhead. You can't feed a 900 -pound steer for 15 cents a day. "The number of cattle on Huron farms has increased sig- nificantly in the past couple of years. This will be revealed when Dr. MacLennan, health of animals branch, released his figures on completion of the T.B. test. The increase may be upwards to 20, 000. There were very few reactors to T.B. in the county, and these were in a few herds." "More people are being dir- ected to us for assistance in planning farm operations, and suggestions for farm and farm building expansion. Some have tried to do expansion out of current revenue and have not made arrangements for long- term finances, or farm im- provement loans if they are go- ing to build." Safe -Driving Week Again Dec. 1-1 As in the past six years, Safe -Driving Week in Canada will extend from December 1 to 7, inclusive. The Canadian Highway Safety Council will sponsor this major road safety campaign with increased co- operation expected from provin• cial and community safety or- ganizations in all provinces, As in the past, Safe -Driving Week will stress problems that arise in winter driving and walking. It will also serve to lead into the nation-wide December - long campaign to combat traf- fic hazards, promoted each year by federal, provincial and community police. During Safe -Driving Week in 1962, 70 people died in traf- fic across Canada. This was a considerable increase over the same period of 1961, when 55 perished. However, of the 43 Canadian cities with popula- tions exceeding 40,000, all but 10 completed Safe -Driving Week without a single road death and were cited by His Excellency the Governor Gen- eral. "Vigilance," said W. Arch Bryce, CHSC's executive director, "must be maintained every minute, walking ordriv- ing. Truth has only to Change hands a few times to become fiction.
