Hullett council selects Carter's The news from
The Auburn UCW met at Knox
United Church. Joyce Bean
welcomed everyone and gave a
humourous reading on "Preparing
for Christmas".
Kay Lapp opened the worship
with a poem "Angel". Joyce then
gave a description of angels, the
beauty and mystery of them.
The scripture lesson from Luke
1, about the Virgin Mary and the
angel Gabriel's message to her of
the coming of Christ, was read by
Kay.
Joyce spoke further of angels,
which she said, are with us in times
of trouble. She spoke of the
shepherds being told of Christ's
birth by angels, then scripture from
Luke pertaining to this was read by
Kay.
Christmas carols were sung with
Marjorie McDougall as pianist.
Joyce continued speaking of
those who had seen angels, of the
mystery of their being. She
followed with prayer.
She told of a former moderator's
message that a spirit of faith and
hope can bring a rich tradition to
the spiritually hungry in this world.
She closed with two readings
"Angels of Hope" and "Guardian
Angel". As she handed the meeting
over to Lillian Hallam she gave a
hilarious reading "Twas the Night
before Christmas", a special for
dairy farmers.
Lillian opened the business with
a reading "Christmas Is a Star".
The end of the road construction
program for Huron County roads is
in sight, Denis Merrall reported to
county council Jan. 4 in his last
annual report as county engineer.
Merrall, who announced his res-
ignation;in November and became
Middlesex County engineer follow-
ing the Huron meeting, said there
are only 34 km of gravel road left
in the county road system, down
from 144 when he came to the job.
The county has 572 km of paved
roads.
Merrall reported a likely surplus
from 1995 operations of $443,000
to help offset a $949,000 cut in
provincial government support for
1996. Huron's road department has
been practicing doing more with
less for years, Merrall said. The
The reports were given.
A few angels were still to be
delivered and several members will
take care of this.
Grace Cartwright will be the new
card convenor.
Those responsible for cleaning
the church, who do not have
flowers for Sunday service, please
notify Maxine Seers.
Frances Clark sent a letter of
gratitude that she had received.
Bibles have been sent to Bosnia,
Croatia. Members are asked to keep
saving those stamps.
Joyce gave the nominating
committee report. Margaret Bakker
offered to accept the position of
president.
Lillian closed by speaking on the
need to work together and to love
one another, then gave a prayer on
this subject.
Maxine Seers treated all to apple
and mincemeat pie with all the
trimmings: During lunch Joyce had
a contest on Christmas which Jane
Stryker won.
Before leaving for home the
members had a selection "Cookie
Walk" and returned home with
Christmas treats.

combined provincial government
grant and county road levy for 1995
was $1.4 million less than in 1991.
The staff now totals 36, 10 less
than in 1986.
Still, he noted, With dedicated
staff, the "needs study" shows it
would require $42.7 million to
eliminate all needs in the road and
bridge system as of Jan. 1, 1995
compared to $48 million in 1993.
Through joint tendering for
asphalt paving with some town-
ships and through selling services

the department received $1.1 mil-
lion for services provided.
Following a 50-minute in camera
session, council appointed Sandra
Lawson, Merrall's assistant engi-
neer, as acting county engineer.

tractor, at the Dec. 19 meeting.
In a 3-2 recorded vote, Carter's
tender of $3,338.40 was accepted
for the years 1996 through 1998.
Those voting against the tender
were Councillor Bruce Bergsma
and Deputy-Reeve Bob Szusz.
Council passed a policy which
would require the notification of
the assessment department when a
building permit is issued for a
home industry. This would permit
appropriate assessment to he
applied.
R.J. Burnside and Associates
were appointed to apportion the
assessment for future maintenance
on the Wilson Drain, for Lot 24,
Conc. 14, due to severance.
An Application for Consent was
approved by council for the sever-
ance of Conc. 10, Lot 14. The
application is subjeCt to reappor-
tionment of Hellinga Drain, with
engineering costs the responsibility
of the applicant. The land is also

would not be sent out, but stated
minutes are available for viewing
by the public during regular•busi-
ness hours.
