The Exeter Times -Advocate reported that this moment was relived recently when McDonald once again broke in the ice. McDonald was at a dance at the South Huron Rec Centre when he noticed that the ice had just been put in. So, following the dance, McDonald went home, got his skates and returned to try out the surface, at 3•:14 in the morning.

The Brussels Post found in a survey that many felt that it would help to bring in industry and create new jobs and many others felt that it wouldn't really come, or had , mixed opinions on the issue.

Preserving energy is becoming a major concern of the day, and now the problem has been localized by Tony McQuail from Lucknow. The Lucknow Sentinel explained that McQuail, who works a 100 acre farm with his wife, have been reducing their energy consumption. ,They have no hydro or natural gas. Instead they use about 50 gallons of kerosene a year for lighting and cooking and use four cords of wood. Their bill for electricity, kerosene batteries and chain saw gas is somewhere around $100 a year. McQuail will be showing others how to conserve this year by teaching two night courses, one at Goderich DistKiict Collegiate Institute ai\d another at Madill Secondary in Wingham. Looking for a cozy little house to buy? Then don't look at the Malcolm house on Durham Street in Kincardine. A photo feature in -the Kincardine News clearly showed that the Malcolm house is no ordinary real estate listing, this is a 21 - room mansion. The historical house con- tains 7,800 square feet of living space. The main floor has a living room, dining roorn,..sitting room, library, sun room, Powder room, laundry, and a rear service staircase, along with two kitchens. Moving onto the second floor you can have a choice between four huge master bedrooms, but only three have bathrooms en - suite. There's only one linen closet on this floor, however according to reporter Bill Dimmick there is enough room indt to store sheets for a small hotel. This isn't the end, though, next is the third floor with six half storey, bedrooms, and another four bedrooms with walk-in closets, and another two bathrooms. Added extras include five fireplaces, a widows walk, a vault, wine cellar, root cellar, fruit cellar, velvet drapes, sculptured ceilings, stained glass skylight, hardwood floors, shutters on the win- dows, winding staircases. Oh yes, and a $125,000 price tag, $1,230 heating bill for just over half a year and property taxes of $1,034. Anyone interested, contact Don Poulton real estate.
