Helen Dunseith expressed appreciation for her informative pictures and description of her time in Taiwan.

Nov. bad month for deer November was another bad month for deer collisions in Huron County. Motorists were involved in another 48 accidents involving deer in the county bringing the total for the year to 209. Most of the deer collisions took place in the north section of the county with some in the central zone between Clinton and Seaforth. The Huron OPP are asking motorists to take special care during the early morning hours just before dawn and again during the hours just after dusk when 90 per cent of the collisions have been occurring. Remember when you see one deer there are1 more since they usually travel in groups. Areas where you are most likely to come across them are where bush comes up close to the road on both sides, swampy areas and low areas near rivers. North Huron Publishing Compa­ ny Inc., publisher of The Citizen, reported a loss of more than $15,000 when shareholders of the community-owned newspaper held their annual meeting, Nov. 25 in Bly th. President Keith Roulston report­ ed that all the company’s publica­ tions suffered from declining advertising revenues in the past year. Advertising makes up 82 per cent of the company’s income. Hardest hit was The Citizen which saw a drop of nearly five per cent in advertising revenues. The continuing loss of business to big box out of town competitors by main street merchants in Bly th and Brussels is affecting the profitabili­ ty of the newspaper, Roulston said. The Rural Voice, the company’s monthly farm magazine suffered a small loss for the year much of it due to the unexpected costs associ­ ated with a subscription drive. The magazine lost its second class postal subsidy when the federal government changed the qualifying rules and was forced to restructure, trying to get more subscription rev­ enue to offset postal costs that increased nearly 300 per cent. The new Rural Voice subscribers should help the company become more profitable in the future, Roul­ ston said. The company’s tourism publica­ tion, Stops Along the Way also saw an advertising drop of 4.4 per cent. The company’s loss represents a severe drop from the company’s $13,000 profit for the year earlier. There were good accomplish­ ments for the year. The company re-equipped during the year with state-of-the-art computer equip­ ment which will slash production costs in the future. The current board of directors including Sheila Richards and Rene Richmond of Brussels and Diane Radford and Jill and Keith Roul­ ston of Blyth was returned for another year. Falling tree strikes man A Morris Twp. man was taken to hospital after a tree-cutting accident on Dec. 2. Police said that Sid White, 48 of Morris Twp. and his brother Brian had been cutting trees in a bush on Cone. 5. The former had just cut a tree when it fell forward striking another tree forcing it back into the tree cutter. A large limb broke off and was catapulted back striking White in the upper body and knocking him to the ground. Brian White who had been pulling logs out with a skidder saw the accident and went to help. The victim sustained a broken collarbone and rib. Police said the Ministry of Labour has been called to assist in the investigation.
