Township of Goderich given home renewal grant Grants for the im- lementation of the Ontario. Hoene Renewal Program (OHRP) have been allocated to several additional Ontario municipalities, including the Township of Goderich, Housing Minister Donald R. Irvine announced today. OHRP provides per capita grants to. Ontario municipalities to administer directly as loans to homeowner occupants to repair their houses to an acceptable ,municipal minimum standard. Goderich Township has been allocated $8,9417.00 at this time, Mr. Irvine said, which represents 25 per cent o€ the total 1975-76 funding designated under OHRP for the - municipality. The prime objective of the program is the correction of faulty structural and sanitary conditions and the upgrading of plumbing, heating and elec- trical systems of the owner occupant's home. "OHRP is directly oriented to low and moderate income families, with a maximum annual income of 512,500", Mr. Irvine said. "Goderich Township is to be congratulated for its initiative in moving quickly to implement this program, which ensures the continued usefulness of needed existing noising." The maximum amount of an OHRP loan, as determined by the local municipality, is 57„500,.. less any funding from, other home renewal program. The municipality is also responsible for determining the rate of interest charged on the loan, from zero to eight per cent, and what portion of the loan will be "forgiven"' , and therefore need not be paid back. OHRP extends home renewal possibilities to owner occupants in any municipality in Ontario, urban or rural, which has adopted either a minimum housing standards bylaw or a resolution setting such stan- dards.

Huron Council Chambers - 1842 Society enjoys bus trip Membe of the Clinton Horticul rat Society went on a bus trip on Saturday. Sep- . tember 13. A full busload headed south towards Lake Erie. through W"oodstock, Oxford County. Titsonburg, Delhi and on to Simcoe. where they visited ..Stone's Dahlia Farm". Mr. and Mrs. Stone showed the group around their dahlia farm where every .plant is staked, named and the price is marked. The Stones take care of the plants in their basement in .the winter and ship orders out in the spring. Next. the Society visited Ivey's Greenhouses, in Port Dover, one of the larger rose businesses in Ontario. Mr. !tour Goodall showed the group around some of then greenhouses. where gardenias. carnations, mums and roses were growing. • The rosesa are cut twice a day in buds and pert in water. Then they are graded and packaged and set in water in a cooler till they are sent out in vans to various florists around the reentry 1lie rase buclrrs are discanilt.11 1•% • t v four or five years .end new ones are plan, ted. These new bushes are mulched with corn cobs which disintegrate and turn into compost quickly. Society next visited St. Williams, a tree nursery run by the Lands and Forest depar- tment. where trees from seedlings are grown: ' ..,, Evergreens and deciduous trees are planted- in plots, sheltered by larger trees. These are sold for reforestration purposes. The last place the Society visited was McConnellNur- sery at Port Burwell. where the fields of mums were just beginning to bloom. There was a Plantland Centre there where bulbs. mums and different plants ceuld be bought. The group went into Port Burma*ell and had supper at an old Lakeside Hotel. The Society would like to send a letter of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Stone for their hospitality and a letter to Mr. .1 ins Goodall of 1.vey's Greenhouses.

Who knows what might have happened if the "Tiger" had still been around. What would he have to say about ° the municipal boundaries that were set so long ago? The study sessions of the 1975 council must have borne some resemblance to the struggles of the late 1830's when. Tiger . . Dunlop and the other fathers of local government fought for• loci autonomy with the Government at York. They were challenged by the then Provincial Government to show that they could earn the right to govern their own affairs. A government centre was required„comprising a jail. a court facility, and a council chamber. Dunlop and his cohorts ac- cepted the challenge. The result of their efforts was the Huron Historic Gaol. Being a somewhat frugal lot, and not wanting the taxes to be too high, they made a composite plan. Much to the dismay of the local clergy, they eliminated the third -floor chapel from the jail plan, and built instead, a combination courtroom and council "chamber. It is that room that the Huron Historic Jail Board wants to restore to its ori: n01 edition. It will provide -a new focus at this propular tourist site and point more clearly to the original purpose in having the building constructed. It is a big job, and ,the research required is still largely in- complete. The building is giving many clues. however. By examining the base -boards and the floor, one can tell the location of the prisoners' dock, the jury's box, and the judge's platform. By studying the walls. the placement of railings end other fixtures can be determined. Behind tho• :,, ,v -plastered "walls are the telltale signs of huge chlrnneya t . large box stoves. By studying other chambers of the snare period, the furniture and furnishainggs can be determined. It is a big job: But it is well worthy of the attentr and support of Huron County today. Our heritage is rich and varied. Today's citizens and tomorro*'s generations will be more aware of its importance as the work at this historic site and other, similar ventures thradglmut the old Huron Tract proceeds.
