Willard Schweitzer who lives on Algonquin Drive in Huron Park talked to his brother Norman by telephone over the weekend . and was thanked for a birth- day card. When the local man replied that he had not sent a card for his brother's December 1 birthday he was told. "No. not last year, but for 1977." Apparently the card sent in late November 1977 by Willard Schweitzer appeared' in Norman Schweitzer's rural mail box at RR 1. Newton only last week. Despite the current first class postage rate of 30 cents the birthday card reached its destination bear- ing a 10 cent stamp.. local employers and educational representatives could discuss and promote the Employer Sponsored Training Program; to not only increase the number of persons involved in training but to also increase the :number of occupations in which training is formalized and being offered; and to es- tablish a liaison program with local elementary and secondary schools. H.C.I.T.C. initiated a com- prehensive survey of the Huron Community by R. Stephen Thompson and Associates Ltd. The survey, financed under a provincial grant. was designed to evaluate the extent of in- dustrial manufacturing in Huron County and to identify the training needs that could be required in the next three years. Critical shortage oc cupations were identified as General Machinists, Tool and Die Makers, Mould - makers. Industrial Maintenance Mechanics (Millwrights). Instrument Mechanics•and • Fitter _Welders.

Continued from front page' problem of seepage. Dalton Finkbeiner, who owns property to the north of the lagoon farm, said he was concerned that seepage would increase through the expansion program, but said he had no objection to the project as long as that situa- tion was avoided. In answer to Jeffery, Burnes said,the base of the enlarged ponds should. be solid clay and there was no investigation conducted to determine if liners should be installed to prevent seepage. "We don't anticipate any problem." he said, in reference to the bottom of the enlarged cells, but added that this would be in- vestigated during construc- tion,and remedial action •taken if required. When asked what urgency was involved in the project, the -engineer said that the degree of urgency was related to the freeze on local subdivision development. He said two subdivision applications are presently being held in abeyance due to the freezeon local growth: He further indicated that the project was dependent upon government grants and said that the earliest star- ting date woltid be this fall.
