Then he asked if it's true the board gave one municipality (Parkhill) *600 above and beyond the rental deal. Board member John Groenewegen, deputy reeve of Caradoc I'Ownseip and county finance committee cbatr- man, said the board agreed last sum- mer to help fix the branch's roof. "That was before the new deal and has nothing to do with this one." Groenewegen also said while Ailsa Craig and West Nissouri are the only holdouts among the 19 county municipalities that own branch buildings, agreement is expected soon with the three that don't. Lucan's branch is owned by the local Masonic Lodge, London Township's by the Merton Legion and East William's by the Beechwood Women's Institute in the Nairn area. by a Lucan-ted protest, the llbreiry boardenUy agreed to can- ting). deaWeg dW� with building owners instead of requiring the Municipalities to take over leasing arrangements.

"Posters and beit:churls have been sent to all Huron - Comty Public Schools so now it's up to eager students to develop their pro- jects,", says Perkin. The Conservation Authorities have included topic suggestions in their brochure and they advise interested students to see their teachers.

That is the strong belief of • the Ausable Bayfield and Maitland Valley Conservation Authorities, and it has led them to involvement in the Huron county Science Pair. The Ausable Bayfield and Maitland Valley Conservation Authorities, in co-operation with the Huron County Science Fair Committee, will present a Conservation Award to encourage students to explore the complex and exciting field of conservation. The Award will be presented at the con- clusion of the county -wide sconce fair.
