Bob, the son of Mrs. Harry Wall of Luckriow, is a former, resident of Kinloss having lived here as a youth just north of the village. The home where he has been living with his family near Oakville has been -con- demned as unfit to live in and the Taylor family has been unable to secure other accom modation which they can af- fotd. They have to be out of .. their Oakville home by the end of the month°and are hopeful of obtaining a home in or sur- rounding the Lucknow area. Bob is a transport driver but has, been out of work for some time and is presently un- able tp secure- employment in the Oakville area. He suffered a' heart attack in 1964 and has .._been ill recently with a nerve ° condition. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor and their family of four have been living on welfare,. The child- ren are Robert Jr. 8, Sharon 6i, Tammy 13 months and a new born child Joyce Penelope May who was born on January 12m10. Bob states that the family is desperate and he is hopeful. that some of his Lucknow area friends might be able to assist hint in'obtaining a home in this district, Huron's 6i -law for tree cutting will not change A document received by the County of Huron in early November of 1967 from Goder- ich Manufacturing Company Limited and presented to the agriculture and reforestation committee of council for study brought little reaction at last Wednesday afternoon's session in Goderich. The lurnbe; company had asked council to consider the' possibiliby of raising the cut- ting restrictions on hardwood trees in the county. Present regulations in Huron are that w• trees must be 11 inches on the stump. Neighbouring counties of Bruce and Lambtonwill allow trees to be cut at -only 14 inches in ,diameter. Upon recommendation of the cenamittee, council agreed not to change the bylaw in this' respect. Speaking to the report, Huron County agricul- tural representative Doug Miles. Clinton, a member of the com- mittee, said that it was the 'committee's intention to get the "most mileage" out of the trees in Hhron.. He explained this phrase to mean the greatest possible amount of lumber from .each tree. Mi1°es did suggest that stricter enforcement of the by - lawn especially the sections affecting tree cutting in areas of the county where clearing away ground cover might in- duce a certain amount of ground drift. He mentioned in - particular areas of Hay and. Ashfield Township where re- moval of brush would_.increase the likelihood of soil blown away by the wind. . • Mr. Miles added that farmers who wish to clear sec- ' tions of their land could do so within the boundaries of the bylaw 'which provides' for the .removal of dead or diseased trees, damaged trees, trees o f poor, form, trees growing on." locations for fireguards, skid- ways or logging trails and°trees that should be cut or removed to provide access for .cutting other ,trees.. , There *are at the present time in Huron County three • tree commissioners,, Hugh Hilt'? --Mr. Frei Davidson left Monday for Daytona Bach, Florida. Goderich; Murray Scott, East' Wawanosh and George Ifeer, Hensall. In future- rer niuner- ation for these men will be ea $1.75 per hour. Everett Smith, enforcement officer, will issue permits pertaininge;�;;- m attert in the bylaw at ;the request of the tree commis - stoners. Wages scale for tie county weed inspectot was increased to $2 per hour, ' , OTHER REPORTS °C alvin Ktauter, 1967 chairman of the industrial and' tourism committee reported that -since the last session of County Council, contact has been made again with the firm of conseltants relative to the initial steps to be ,taken in pro- ceeding with the study for coun- ty planning. The'Department of Municipal Affairs has been asked to outline specific in- structions necessary to establish the county of Huron as a plan- ning area and the committee for 1968 will be meetingivith officials from that `department later in January. Council was promised that no commit menta would be made without members being asked for their approval, pos- sibly at the March session. The Huron County Libra ry Board report submitted by for- mer Clinton reeve Duff Thomp- son, chairman, showed that ' after -the initial year under the new system there was a surplus of $2,723.81. One of the prin- cipal items of business in 1968 is expected to be a..disctission with the National Film Board •and the Blue Water Film Feder- ' ation regarding distribution of films throughout the county by means of the county library. • Medical Officer of Health Dr.... G.P. A. Evans told council the incidence of rabies last year decreased by six' over 1966, or by half from 12''oases report- ed in 1966. He stressed the importanceof keeping the attacking anfmal alive if at all possible in order to facilitate early positive -detection of the rabies virus. However, he agreed that a dead animal was better than noneat all. -He also reported that a, W e11 'Baby Clinii . is proposed , - ,for the new medical and dental centre in the village of Brussels. where families, 'he said, had not had easy access to the county health services prior to now.
