(Anne'Narejko photo) Early files - mail petition 100 years ago February 4, 1885 Owing to the late hour at which the mail arrives in Bayfield, a petition is being signed to the Post Office Inspector, asking to have the stage with the mail to be allowed to come straight through without waiting for the late train -on the LH&B. There is more heat needed in the Holmesville Methodist Church on Sunday morning. The fires should be lit an hour or two earlier or else another register put in. The carnival on the Clinton skating rink, last Friday, under the auspices of the town band, was a thoroughly successful affair. The youth and beauty of the county town and the various surrounding towns and villages were fairly represented. The weather was favorable and an immense crowd assembled. We congratulate the Band on the financial result, over $53 net. Several persons in Belgrave had their ears frozen last week. 75 years ago February 3, 1910 a It will be perhaps remembered by readers of the News -Record that an Englishman named Williams with his wife and child lived in a state of semi -barbarism for some months in the Hay swamp. Williams, who is worse than a useless character, is now in the county gaol and his wife in the House of Refuge. With her are her two children, one twoyears old, but unable to walk and the other an infant. An agent of the Children's Aid Society visited the House on Monday and made arrangements to have the children placed in the Home. Would Siberia be too comfortable for Williams? Mrs. D.S. Carter of the 2nd concession of Hullett Township had a wood bee one afternoon last week at which a good supply of wood was cut. In the evening a dance was given which was immensely enjoyed by all present. 50 years ago February 7, 1935 Mr'. Floyd Lodge of the Ball and Zapfe staff, who underwent a couple of operations a fortnight or so ago, having to give up • tonsils and appendix all in the same day, has so far recovered as to be taken to his home in Goderich. And it is expected he will soon be able to return to duty. It was rather tough to have to have both these operations at once but when it is all over he may be glad to feel that it is behind him rather than something to look forward to. The Dramatic Club of Trinity Church, Bayfield is preparing the presentation of a Minstrel Performance on Feb. 22 in the town hall. Miss Lucy Woods is the directress and Miss Floy Edwards is musical directress This is the first attempt at this type of entertainment since the days of the great war and it should prove to be, very well received as it will be an agreeable change from the usual type of concert presented by the club. 25 years ago February 4, 1960 A $70,168.87 contract has been awarded by the Department of Public Works to the Ontario Marine and Dredging Limited of Toronto, for the construction of a retaining wall and some dredging at Bayfield; Hope you noticed, and complimented the streets committee for it. Snow has been removed from downtown Clinton streets this winter, almost before it was necessary. That's really something. Wonder if the money saved by lack of snowplowing this winter could be put towards renewing the auditorium of the town hall? Of course it niay all be used up in the liquor vote which is to come next month, that will cost something. Jo -Anne Snell, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Snell of Londesboro was picked over seven other girls to be this year's Clinton and District Winter Carnival Queen. Jo -Anne is 18 and a Grade 13 student at Central Huron Secondary School. Nancy Castle of Clinton picked the runner- up. 10 years ago February 10, 1975 Spokesmen from the Vanastra Ratepayer;' Association attended Tuckersmith Council's meeting and asked that they be allowed to lease and take care of the Community Centre there and use whatever profits they make as they see fit. No money for hospital By Stephanie Levesque Huron County Council won't be giving any money to the $17 million building project at Stratford General Hospital. Before Christmas the county was asked for a .contribution of $335,000 which represents 6.7 per cent of the $5 million pledged by the City of Stratford. The county took no action on the request when brought before the February session of county coun- cil. / The hospital is planning to replace its 98 - bed chronic care unit known as the Rehabilitation and Extended Care Unit as well as up dating the building to the fire code and improving the emergency area. Hospital statistics show that 518 Huron County patients were admitted over a year compared to 4,435 from Stratford. Clerk -treasurer Bill Hanly,.said the county has never given any money to a hospital out- side the county. Perth County Council has been asked to pledge $2.5 million to the hospital. was as Hydro corrido ay crass towns ip EAS AWANOSH - Parts of East co pensation money, something Ms. restrictions was in place, Wawanosh Township may failin the path of Lawrence said has happened before. Building Inspector Arnold Bruce submit- a new power corridor proposed by Ontario Another series of public information ted an application from Helmut Sieber, Lot 42, Con. 3, for a two-storey office budding, estimated value $300,000. Council granted the township's approval provided. Mr.. Sieber confer with the Ministry of Transportation and Com- munications, the health unit and the township road superintendent and drainage inspector. The council members also advised Clerk - Treasurer Winona Thompson to check with the county planning office with regard to the zoning of the property. Donations of $200 to the Belgrave, Blyth and Brussels School Fair and $25 to the March of Dimes were made at the meeting. The next meeting of East Wawanosh coun- cil is March 4 at 12 noon at the township sh- Hydro. Sheilagh Lawrence, a Hydro represen- tative, attended the council meetialg and fill- ed council in on the progress of studies started last summer to determine a new route from the Bruce Nuclear Power Development to London. Hydro has narrowed the selection down to three possible routes after intensive en- vironmental studies and meetings with dif- ferent local groups, such as the federation of agriculture and municipal councils. A series of public ipformation workshops also was held last fall at local centres. East Wawanosh Councillor Vaughn Toll asked Ms. Llwrence why Hydro would go to the trouble of drawing up new routes when there already is an existing right-of-way. Ms. Lawrence said the existing corridor is being touted as a possible route, but the pro- vince's strict environmental protection laws require a number of possible routes be studied. As faras remuneration is concerned, Ms. Lawrence said Hydro compensates lan- downers according to a fair market value of their properties. Hydro's new narrow -based 500 -KV, watt lines are easier to work around and° do not take up as much space, she added. The power company hopes to start construction by 1987. Councillor Jim Taylor said payments to landowners should be made on a yearly meetings is starting next month, she said. Locally these workshops will be held March 11 in Wingham and March 13 in Clinton. In other business council members decid- ed not to take any increase in their 1985 honorariums. Reeve Neil Vincent will be paid $1,500 again this year and the coun- cillors each will receive $1,050. The rate for special daytime meetings is still $35 and $10 for every committee meeting. The convention rate was increased to $75 from $50 and the township mileage rate was raised to 22 cents per kilometre from 19 cents. Harold Errington of West Wawanosh is East Wawanosh's new tile drain inspector and drainage superintendent. He replaces John. Gaunt who resigned late last year. Mr. Errington is drainage superintendent in West Wawanosh and Ashfield Townships as well. He will be paid $9•.00 per hour, $15 for every meeting he attends and the township mileage rate. Approve severance Council gave its approval to a severance application submitted by Christina Empey, Lot 28, Con. 3. Mrs. Empey hopes to sever the six 1acres upon which her house is located and convey the remaining 94 acres of her 100 -acre parcel to her son Ken. Council members approved ththeapplica- tion since it would take no agricultural land . out of production, the property is naturally basis and keep up with the rate of inflation. severed by a ravine and it would not restrict All in all, joked Mr. Toll, there probably any neighboring landowners. Also, the will be farmers begging that the line cross buildings were constructed in 1977 before their properties so they can get in on the the township secondary plan on land use ed.
