Reflecting upon the main streets of Clinton as I remember them upon the August day in 1962 when our family, first set foot here - there have been several changes in the intervening years. Where Eaton's now operates there was a food store QWned by Fitzsimmons. Eaton's then occupied the premises now known as Walt Gardiner's Barber Shop and Walt was at that time next door to the present Menzies, Ross Law Office, • In that year the News - Record office was across the way complete with printing press in the old. theatre building. Next door to Bar- tliffs Restaurant was a cold storage locker - 'and then through successive stages it became a flower shop - a fruit store - at various intervals a politidal party headquarters office and finally into its revitalized state for Mr. Gordon Duern. Across the street beneath Dr. Palmer's office was Herb Bridle's Food Market which made a change to Fee's Grocery and thence through a complete facelifting to The Arbor. Next door, Morden and Helwig's premises were occupied in 1962 by Peter's Meat Market. Where the Shadow Box is now. next door to the Town Hall, was Staniforth's Shoe Store which in turn was owned and operated, by Mr. and Mrs. Bert Garrett. After closing as a shoe store, it became for a short period. a bargain outlet until now it fulfils the unique role which its name denotes. Smith's Pro Hardware in the early sixties was two stores - on the one side MacEwans Gifts and Stationery and on the other Pennebaker's Drug St re.

He said that a move to establish the 20 bed unit in Alexandra was im- practical because the physical structure of the ho.spital and its ancillary units do not lend themselves • to psychiatric care. The administrator said that he did not yet know what staff he would require in the 20 bed unit nor did he know where they were to come from. He Said his understanding was that the unit would be started from scratch adding that he assumed the staff of GPH would be given first priority when the staff were hired for the unit: The finality of the ministry announcement did not seem to affect the efforts of the Goderich Committee of Concerned Citizens who this week bolstered, their defense of GPH.
