Following the choir's afternoon rehearsal, the Hensall Choir entertained the Boychoir with films as well as a chicken dinner.

We wish them well on their Senior housing group yet charter After 18 months of hard work, the Hesnall Senior Citizens Housing Committee received its charter this week making it 'an official cor- porate body. Despite the official charter plans for construction of senior citizens housing com- plex for the village have slow- ed considerably. The committee decided this week to ask for a meeting with Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation officials to discuss the need study and hopefully get approval for startup funds. The first need study for Hensall was completed by committee secretary Irene Davis in 1979, but, the provin- cial government decided on- ly a 10 unit building was necessary. The committee felt this small a complex would not be financially feasible. A second need study was completed in October 1981 and received a great response from Hensall senior citizens. The committee is seeking assistance from Huron - Middlesex MPP Jack Riddell and Huron -Bruce MP Murray Cardiff when they meet with CMHC officials and hope they will get the necessary co- operation and permission to proceed. Various properties in Hen- sall have been discussed with architects, but, no decision on location can be made until CMHC approval is received. After the latest meeting of the committee secretary Irene Davis said, "We feel although there are a few vacancies in nearby com- munities it is not enough to fill our needs, plus seniors who have lived here all their lives should not have to leave their village. People who have grown up in cities think nothing of moving 20 or 30 miles away, but, rural people prefer their own community.” Mrs. David continued, "This is my personal opinion, but, it appears governments today have lost touch with human nature. We are all be- ing numbered or computerized." Bill Fuss is president of the Hensall Seniors Corporation, Irene Davis is secretary and Frederick McGee is the treasurer. Directors are John Baker; Dogg Cook, Leonard ' "Butch" Hoffman, James McGregor, Elizabeth Oke, Harry Klungel and Eileen Rennie. Visitors from Holland Mrs. K. Lagerwerf and Mrs. M.
