charge.

Bayfield introduced the guest
speaker Mr. Scotchmer of
Bay fieirf --
Mr. Scotchmer, curator at
Huron County Museum in
Goderich, showed a few slides
and explained a little of the
origin and development of the
museum.
This was followed by a period
of trying to identify some of the
objects displayed. They were
from earlier years and gave
plenty of evidence that - the age
of invention began long before
modern time.
Mr. Claude Kalbfleisch ex
pressed the thanks of the group
to Mr. Scotchmer.
The next meeting- will- be
early in June at 'Benniiller at

Writing on October 20, Mrs.
Corbett notes:
"We have been in Greenville,
Miss. since Monday. The people
here have been so nice. One
couple in particular.
"As soon as we got here, the
newspaper girl interviewed us
and took us to a cotton plan-
tation and gin. Since then a
couple, Ken and Rosemary
Tolliver,. have taken us under,4.
their wing (they did this' trip' two
years ago) and wined and dined
"us and taken, us all over.
"Ken has arranged for ,us to
have our masts put' in free (we
are at the clock now) by the
' Brent Towing Co: He also got us
a citizes Band radio at
-tvhonresale..... •
"We were interviewed on TV
Rosemary took us to Arkansas
(right across the river) for a
Mexican dinner. It was in=
teresting but hot ' and spicy. I
couldn't eat it too often but it
was nice to have tried it just the
same. Ken and Rosemary took
us for a boat ride one night up
the lake here, and the next night
for a car ride on the levee.
"There are usually two levees,
one sometimes a mile back from
-the other one. You would have
been fascinated by the kiarge
company we toured since you
are in transportation. Their
barges are all over the rivers
and we saw several going by
(some named after his kids).

An interested Signal -St�r-
reader
makes suggestions
In a letter to Signal Star sub-
scriber Mrs. Katherine
Harrison, of Cleveland Ohio,
Peter if: Smith, Assistant fa"r
Mu'seum Services for the Depar-
tment of Field Services in the
United States, notes that copies
of stories about the Huron
County Jail ,in oderichC"were
very interesting material:
Especially "the proposal to con-
vert it into , a museum of
penology."
Mrs. Harrison had forwarded
copies of the Signal Star to the
Heritage Foundation pointing
out the discussion underway
about the former jail.
In a letter to Mrs. Harrison (a
copy of which was ' sent the
Signal Star) Mr..Smith.notes, "I
do : npt;.:w.kkno .of o �atay, other%:.
myiseurn that.is entirely devoted
to penology, although there are
a number which preserve°certain
aspects, of a jail and there are
also several museums of local
history in this country which are
housed in former jails."
"You might suggest to Mrs.
Keller," he points out in the let-
ter, `=that she may wish to
write to the Canadian Museurris
Association for technical
assistance in developing the
museum."
•4
"Shoutd-the wn 01-Goderich
wish to retain,.a consultant to
advise them on the development
of the museum, we would be
happy to supply them with
several names of people who
have had experience in•museum
development." ,Mr. Smith adds
that he is sure "the Canadian
Museum Association maintains
a roster of experienced in-
dividuals who may be willing to
serve. in a consultative capacity
regarding the development of
museums."
Mr. Smith's comments
represent the second person to
contact this newspaper from
`outside Canada offering en-
couragement and assistance in
developing.- the,u former . Huron.
County .Tail. In a letter last
month, a British architect sent
along a cheque for about $50- to
start a fond to save the -jail: •
Deer season. looks
good for hunters
The only "rifle" deer season
in the Lake Huron District in
1972 is scheduled for November
13-18 in the Township of St. Ed-
munds, Eastnor, Lindsay,
Amabel, Albemarle and Keppel
on the Bruce Peninsula.
In 1971, an estimated 2,662
hunters harvested 606 deer for a
22.8% rate of success, up Con-
siderably from the 15.4% sue -
,cess rate in 1970. In fact the
Provincial 'average success rate
in 1971 was 23% , making it one
of the best seasons in at least
five years.
Our computer mail surveys
last year estimated an average
expenditure per hunter on the
Peninsula of $81.00 for new
equipment, travel, accom-
modation, food, beverage, etc.
Thus the Bruce Peninsula deer
hunt in 1971 generated $215,600
into the recreational based
economyof Ontario, and at least
three quarters of this was spent
locally on the Peninsula.

not to buy too much down in the
Bahamas as it is very expensive
there."

"We dot our ,masts put in
without any difficulty. I got a
tooth filled, also and the dentist
gave us an emergency filling kit
to take on the trip.
"Ken and Rosemary took us
to breakfast Saturday morning
and I had my first taste of grits.,
They look like mashed potatoes
but taste a little strong. (I think
it is corn).

Bruce Peninsula of 3,700 adult
deer. Considering an over winter
mortality of :338 deer and the
legal harvest of 606, last falls
pre -hunting season population
was 4,644 or an average of .6.7
deer per square mile. The
population density on the Bruce
is the highest of any of the
major deer hunting Districts in
Ontario, where the average den-
sity is Iess than `4 deer 'per
square mile.
The legal harvest on the
Bruce in 1971 accounted for
13.0% of the population below
the 20.0% rate with which the
herds could sustain. Harvests
