Museum The Lambton Heritage Museum is erecting a se- cond farm machinery building for the housing and display of agricultural im- plements from Lambton's past. The new building will be 60' X 100', and will have maintenance -free siding. Total cost of the building will be covered by a large donation from the Richard Ivey Foundation, a second family bequest, and a matching grant from Win- tario. Once the new museum opened in May 1978, many large implements were offered from around Lamb - ton County. The original farm building at the new museum site quickly became full. Lambton is such a predominately rural County that the buildings tell the major story in..the region's development. Inside the main museum building another new exhibit is in the making. The con- struction of an Industrial Display area - is being fund- ed by a donation from Discount Dave's — Conkli Lumber. The exhibit will outline the various pioneer industries of Lambton County, such as salt, lumber and oil, and pay particular attention to woodworking tools, barn framing, and similar con- struction methods. Conklin Lumber has Bishop Sherlock recovering from bike accident Bishop John Sherlock is still in a London Hospital recovering from head in- juries he received when he fell from his bicycle in Grand Bend last Tuesday.

It is hoped that this, the second Conklin donation to the Lambton Heritage Museum fund drive, will set an example for corporate sponsorship of museum exhibits.
