live with and participate in the
regular activities of the farm
families on their farms and in
their communities.
This year, the on-farm assign-
ment lasts from June 23 to August
23. Each Junior Agriculturalist
will receive a training allowance
of $16 per day, based on a six-day
week. Half of this is provided by
the Ontario Ministry of Agricul-
ture and Food; the host farmer
provides $3 in cash per day, as
well as room and board worth $5
a day. -
The Junior Agriculturalist will
be under the direct supervision of
the farm operator, taking part in
the day-to-day activities on the
farm. Hours on alarm can be ir-

tina Schneiker.
Mr. Hanly told members of
Huron County Council last Thurs-
day in Goderich' that the tem-
porary appointments of Mrs.
Simpson and Mrs. Schneiker to
chief county posts will allow time
to "take a look at the overall
operation".
The administrator said that be-
fore his death, Mr. Berry had
madesome-recommendations for
possible changes in the county
administrative staff. Mr: Hanly
felt now is the best time to con-
sider these recommendations.
"The present system is probably
the hest one," Mr. Haply said,
"but maybe very maybe—there
should be some changes. , We'd
like time to study it."
Mr. Hanly's - salary ' will be
$22,000 per annum and Mrs.
Simpson and Mrs. Schneiker will
each receive $25 per week, in
addition to their regular salaries
for ' their added responsibilities.

chase of a memorial plaque in
recognition of the 26 years of
"faithful and dedicated service to
the County of Huron of the late

Take a long walk
for Forest Week
Walking is a healthful exercise.
A walk in the forest can be down-
right rewarding.
To help mark National 'Forest
Week in Ontario, from May 4-11,
a number of Walks in the Forest
are being organized. This co-
operative effort between the On-
tario Forestry Association, the
Ministry of Natural Resources,
Conservation Authorities and
others, will see numerous
"organized" walks on Sunday,
May 11, with guides and know-
ledgable interpreters .of the
woods. But many independent
souls may wish to walk alone or
with a friend or family.
It just happens to be Mother's
Day of International Women's
Year. What a chance to get
Mother out of the kitchen for a
stroll in the woods and dinner,
Dad, at some pleasant restaur-
ant.
There are many hiking trails
about Ontario and many offer an
opportunity for a walk in the for-
est.
To make the outing most re-
warding the sponsors recom-
mend taking tree identification
books, binoculars, bird guides
and other reference materials.
Families may wish tb make up a
natural resources scavenger hunt
or other game to play.
The guided walks will intro-
duce many to the management of
forests and the work of resource
managers. Finding out more
about What is being done to man-
age forests sounds like a sound
idea. We own 90 per cent of On-
tario's forests, after all.
"Whatever the approach taken
to his `Walk in the Forest' it will
help to acquaint the walker with
the forest and man's connection
with it", W. G. Harris, chairman
of Ontario's National Forest
Week Committee said.
"There are so many con-
nections that wie chose to make
the theme of this year's. obser-
vance 'trees—the Green Link'."
