Dairy Princesses Rural area needs won't be forgotten Municipal Affairs Minister Dave Cooke announced Tuesday, Aug. 25 at the annual AMO Conference that if the province pays all welfare costs rural communities will not be put at an economic disadvantage by being left paying all the other expenses. Cooke told 1,000 municipal politicians in Toronto that no decision has been made on what municipalities will give in return. He assured the civic officials that there would be a wide consultation process before any permanent legislation was put in place. He also stressed the new system should be in place by the 1994. “I'm glad to see that rural Ontario won't be forgotten,” said Paul Klopp MPP for Huron County. “As chair of the Rural Advisory Committee I've been working pretty hard to ensure that the rural voice is heard.” Under the* current system, municipalities pick up 20 per cent of the welfare and road costs while the province picks up the rest. tbe Blytb I«W 523-9381 THURSDAY NIGHT IS WING NIGHT 5 P.M. - MIDNIGHT WINGS 35e EACH MINIMUM ORDER 10 a variety of sauces available Wings available for take out at regular price of 50e each.

The 1992-93 Ontario Dairy Princess will conduct public rela­ tions activities on behalf of Ontari­ o's dairy farmers during her 12 month reign. To become an Ontario Dairy Princes, a contestant is judged on her public speaking ability, knowl­ edge of the dairy industry, maturi­ ty, personality and poise. The winner's prizes include an educa­ tional bursary, a dairy calf and a silver tea service. People plan to take back the night Thursday, Sept. 17, women and men will gather on the Court House Square in Goderich between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. for the second annual Take Back the Night March. The aim of a Take Back the Night march is to call public atten­ tion to the violence that is commit­ ted against women. Women are encouraged to speak out and expe­ rience solidarity with other women. Men are invited to demonstrate their support and respect for wom­ en's autonomy and safety. The Take Back the Night march­ es are sponsored nationally by the Canadian Association of Rape Cri­ sis Centres and provincially by the Ontario Coalition of Rape Crisis Centres. Various organizations such as sexual assault centres, tran­ sition houses, or women teachers' groups, take responsibility for implementing local activities. Following the rally at 7:30 p.m. at the Square, women will march on the surrounding streets to make children. Men will be invited to line the marchers' route to show support. After the march, women will socialize and celebrate together at The Livery on South street. Last year, over 100 women par­ ticipated in the Take Back the Night activities. Organizers hope for an even larger turnout for 1992. Child care will be offered from 7-9 p.m. at St. George's Anglican Church on Nelson Street East. Bus transportation will be pro­ vided from pre-arranged sites in Wingham and Exeter, so that women without their own vehicles will be able to attend the rally and march.
