Conference admonished
those in attendance at the

Church to "Open your hearts
and minds to the presence of
God in our midst."
He said, "As we go
through life Jesus is in-
volved In all we do, in our
reconciliation with
ourselves and others.
Sometimes we put Jesus on
a pedestal and think He does
not understand but He does.
He knows what it is like to be
a failure, He walked this
earth and dwelt among men.
On one occasion Jesus wept.
He is involved in the
struggle of every human be-
ing and He works through
our weaknesses."
"We are all involved in a
ministry, one to the other. It
doesn't matter if we are lay
persons or ministers. In our
limitations we think we have
nothing to offer but we have.
We are all involved in
Christ's ministry."

before the bylaw can be
presented."
The committee has heard
from eight commodity
groups, such as pork
producers, and other
livestock groups and far-
mers' organizations which
were invited to participate.
Reeve Haberer said while
the meetings are closed to
the public, it was felt input
should be received from the
farming community, thus
invitations were extended to
commodity groups.
Once the draft bylaw has
been prepared, the com-
mittee will review it. When a
final draft is prepared, the
commodity groups will be
invited to a further meeting
before a final bylaw is
recommended to county
council.
Goderich Deputy Reeve
Robert Allen wanted to know
why the special committee
meetings are closed to the
public. In the committee
report, it was noted a letter
had been received asking the
same question.
Clerk -treasurer William
Hanly said all committee
meetings, except the
planning board are not
public meetings, but the
public may be invited to
attend. He said ft has been
this way since he came to the
county in 1958 and as far as
he knew since 1842.
"Mr. Warden, I respect-
fully ask to refer this to
committee...it's not in the
trend of today," said Deputy
Reeve Allen.
Council approved a review
of its rules of operations by
the executive committee
with recommendations to be
brought to council.

it will be the responsibility of

Times -Advocate, March 3, 1911111
Separate board has surplus
Huron -Perth Separate
School approved its 1981
financial statement at its
February 22 meeting, which
showed an accumulated sur-
plus of $10,313.
The statement shows a
total expenditure in 1981 of
85.920,779. Of this, 81,135,578
was raised through local tax-
ation. The largest expen-
ditures was in education ser-
vices, $3,997,074.
Trustee Don Murray asked
why the statement did not go
through the financial com-
mittee prior to corning to the
board for final approval.
"We can't be expected to
approve $5 million in expen-
ditures in five minutes,"
Trustee Murray said.
Superintendent of business
and finance Jack Lane said
the statement has always
been brought to the board as
a whole. He also said the
faster it is sent to the
Ministry of Education, the
faster the board will get its
1981 holdback.
Past chairman Murray
said he wanted to know ex-
actly where the money was
spent, and if it had gone
through the financial com-
mittee. its members could
answer his questions.
"I'm not saying it wasn't
spent right," said Trustee
Murray. He added the
board's staff is "pretty
good."

ministry of consumer and

caretakers of a cemetery on
highway 84 near Ferguson
Apiaries.
A complaint about the up-
keep of the cemetery was
directed .to council through
the ministry.
Gerald Shantz suggested
people who complained be at
the meeting to discuss what
the problems are.
Tony Bedard said snow
pushed off the roads had
tilted some of the
tombstones and would
destroy a new fence if one
were built.
The cemetery has had
some "pretty rough van-
dalism" in the past year.
Wilder added.
Rau said it was hard for
council to- take action
without knowing what the
problems of the cemetery
were.
Council also plans a
meeting with the people who
raise pheasants in Hay
Township.
A letter from the ministry
of natural resources
suggested licence funds
from the townships of Hay.
Stephen and ' Usborne be
pooled to allot money to
those who raise pheasants.
The letter suggested a
common licence for the
three townships.
Hay resisted reciprocal
licences with the townships
last season.
Kau said the township
could keep better control of
hunting if they handled licen-
cing on their own. Money

Wilder said the letter
noted the confusion of
hunters trying to get
licences' in the three
townships.
Kau said Hay had a good
system for hunting pheasant

meet with those concerned
with raising the birds.

Rau said he had been ap-
proached by members of the
fire board and told a recon-
ditioned radio was available
for $650.
Ile said the fire depart-
ment would need the radio
sooner or later and it should

cost would be twice as mull
for a new•radio. I
Bedard argued the need to
buy the radio right away was
a sales pitch. He added he
had not yet been convinced
of the need of the new beeper
paging system let alone a
. new radio.
Wilder agreed with the
need for the radio, but added
that if the purchase was im-
portant,it should come as a
written request from the fire
board.
In going over the financial
statement, Mr. Lane said
"the year has been
successful from the stand-
point of the board's financial
position" referring to its ac-
cumulated surplus. A
favorable reaction from the
teachers to a split grid for
the 1981-82 school year was a
contributing factor.
A considerable increase in
cost was experienced in
transportation due to in-
creased costs of gasoline, oil
and general repairs.
Comparing 1981 figures to
1969, per pupil cost of educa-
tion has risen from 185 to $1,-
926 a year, or ;2,380 if
transportation is included.

Huron County statistics show

At Huron County council's
February session this past
week, clerk -treasurer
William Hanly said eight -
tenths of one percent needed
assistance in December 1981.
He has heard of it being as
high as 30 percent m other

Social services ad-
ministrator John MacKinnon
presented 1981 statistics,
showing 1,995 cases had been
handled in the year. The
largest number were in
March, when the figure
reached 204 cases. In
December, 197 cases (the
second highest month) were
handled. The lowest number
of case';, 137, were in July.
Mr. MacKinnon's
presentation showed social

proposed budget was
;616,725, but actual ex-
penditures came to ;665,350.

was 1169,077 up from the
budgeted amount of 8162,670.
The province's share also
increased from $454,055 to
$496,273.
"The over expenditures
occurred for the most part in
our general assistance and
homemaker's programs.
The higher general
assistance expenditures
were caused by higher

caused by numerous lay-offs
and lack of job op-

Exeter council have in-
structed local solicitor Chris
Little to resolve the problem
that is being experienced by
some residents on Eastern
Ave. in getting proper deeds
for their properties.
'he move was approved at
ttfe suggestion of the
executive committee which
met with Little prior to
Monday's regular session.
Mayor Bruce Shaw said
that when the road
allowance on Eastern Ave.
was reduced, some errors
were made in the legal
descriptions and as a result,
some property owners have
ended up not owning about 20
feet of property that they
thought they owned.
Shaw said the cost of
straightening out the matter
would be less than $1,000 and
explained to council that
some of the property owners
involved in the situation
would be paying a portion of
those costs.
