Volunteers to aid
Pioneer Museum
The Huron County Pioneer
Museum Volunteers met
Monday morning, January 16
at the workshop with 16 peo-
ple present. Many projects
were discussed to promote an
interesting scene at the
museum in Goderich this
summer.
The Education Project
headed by Mary Ann Demp-
sey, will hopefully include
many things for school
children who will benefit
greatly from the rooms of ar-
tifacts at the museum.
Museum week is May 18
and many activities are being
planned for the children of the
county and their teachers at
this time.
The log cabin on the site of
the museum at 110 North
Street will be decorated to
commemorate Canada Week Only one case was heard by

-He said there was "limited
involvement" by the county
at the hearing- by the
representatives of three other
groups as well. But even so,
the joint hearing board had
"acted beyond its jurisdic-
tion" by recommending the
401 as a possible route for
study, he said. "something it
had no mandate to do."

Causes consternation
Winter driving problems
cause concern!
Provincial Constable Dave
Benn of the Mount Forest
Detachment is just one of the
officers who has commented
on some of the winter pro-
blems that cause officers,
other drivers, and road crews
considerable consternation.
In the Mount Forest area
during the past week, approx-
imately 20 vehicles have been
found parked on a county or
township roadway interfering
with snow removal. A number
of these were charged under
Section 147(10) of the
Highway Traffice Act, which
states that: no person shall
park or stand a vehicle on a
highway in such a manner as
to interfere with the "move-
ment of traffic or the clearing
of snow from the highway.
Any vehicle found interfer-
ing with traffic or snow
removal is subject to being
towed away and the owner of
the vehicle is liable for towing
and storage charges as well
as the $53.00 fine for interfer-
ing with snow removal.
Three other offences that
are causing problems are:
Section 56(1) - Windows to af-
ford clear view, (impossible if
you don't bother to clear the
vehicle off properly), Section
157 - depositing snow on road -
y without permission in
riting to do so; and Section
(4) - lamps required shall.
when lighted, be clearly visi-
ble at a distance of at least 150
metres from the front or rear
as the case may be (if you
doq't clear the snow off pro-
perly your lights cannot be
seen and if they can't be seen
there's a good chance you
can't be seen.

than heavy tractors, are envi-
sioned because only the upper
area of the barn is available
for the display. The bottom is
largely open, containing pic-
nic tables, lunch counter and
washrooms.
"We are looking at starting
small," said Hughes.
An early Ilderton
blacksmith shop product - a
farm wagon with steel -
rimmed wheels - and an anti-
que potato digger are among
early finds. Other items have
already been donated or pro-
mised, Corsault said. "We
have been kind of careful. We
want to make sure there will
be a museum."
A five -member museum
board is being considered
with three representatives
from the heritage club and
two senior citizen
representatives.
Council will cover expenses
for new electric wiring and
a new entrance.
