New Child -Safety Book
Distributed By Police
Throligh the efforts of ' the 1 ren to read the book and to
Goderich Police Department,
---theeee-odericlr-tiofts---Citelyean
enter the competitions.
Fred Minshall, the coloring
book actually is a Safety Man-
ual for children. Accidents
cause more deaths among child-
ren than do diptheria, scarlet
fever, whooping ,sough, dysen-
try and polio combined. On
the flyleaf of the book a mess-
age to parents stresses the im-
portance of teaching children
the fundamentals of self pro-
tection and adds the caution
"It's up to you to protect your
the generosity of local business-
men, 935 Safety Coloring, Books
were distributed to pupils, Fri-
day, at the two public schools
and the two separate schools.
The cartoons and their cap-
tions are designed to make
children more' aware of such
dangers as traffic hazards, water
hazards, danger areas, and the
type of stranger who might
lure a child with candy or other
gifts. _child while he is little and help -
Prizes for coloring the pie- less, to make ,sure your home
is a haven, not a hazard."
The wide distribution of the
book,. called "The School Patrol
with Safety Sam," should cer-
tainly assist the police and the
school safety patrols in main-
taining the town's good record
regarding a low accident rate
among our younger children.
So the message to parents,
from the sponsors of this help-
ful book, is to get out the cray-
ons and encourage YOUR child
to study these important cau-
tions from cover to cover.

COUNTY COUNCIL DOINGS
'Hospitalization Of
Indigents Is Topic
MunicipalitieS stand to lose
substantially by reason -of provincial legislation limiting the
so:called unconditienel grant
for hospitalization of indigents.
in the interest of .economy,
many have insured with the'
Hospital Services Commission
some or all families in receipt
of welfare, but none of the
premium cost is permitted to
be includedfferLthe purposes of
determining "100% of such
statutory payments." This
seems illogical, inasmuch as if
there, had been ho coverage
with the Commission the cost
of hospitalization would have
been more than the premium
cost, and the whole cost of such
payments would have been al-
lowed.
Huron County Council on Fri-
day concurred in a Windsor
resolution seeking to have the
situation rectified.
"We have some 90 persons or
families covered in the Ontario
Hospital Services at the present
time," said eleek-treasurer
Berry, ,"and cannot claim the
expenditure far grant.jprposes.
We, could continue the hieepital
plan, and then all the money
paid out. would be available for
grant. This came to my mind
immediately after we heafd of
the change. Mr. MacNaughton
has.been working on it." •
The report of the finance com-'
inittee was presented by Reeve
Adair, of- Wingham.
Reeve Hanna, of East Wawa -
nosh, chairman of the property
committee, received approval
for its report, in which con-
tracts were awarded as follows:
painting outside of the jail, D.
A. Kay, Clinton, $695; coal sup-
ply for the jail for next two
seasons, Overholt Coal Co.,
.Goderich, $23.85 per ton;, supply
of fuel oil to court house for
next two seasons, Ross Scett,
Brucefield, at 13.9c per gallon;
office furniture for the Crown
Attorneys quarters, K. A. Ham-
mond, Moorefield.
,The committee investigated
a public address system for the
council chamber, and found it
too expensive.
Worsell Bros. submitted the
only tender on heating renova-
tions, at $1,823.36, -and this was
accepted.
Consideration is being given
by the committee to having re-
produced and framed pictures
of county councils prior to 1922.
Reeve Tom Leiper, of Hullett,
offered some around 1911 or
1912.
Council carried the reforest-
ation committee's report, pre-
sented by Reeve Harvey Cul-
bert, West Wawanosh. Accord-
ingly, a bylaw was passed pro-
viding for purchase of 100 acres
