Haugh Tire celebrates
with grand opening
By David Emslie
CLINTON - After officially taking over
Haugh Tire and Muffler Supply Ltd. in
August of 1985, the new owners celebrated
their grand opening recently from
September 18 to September 20.
"The grand opening was more for the fact
that we got the business back on its feet, to
let people know„what is going on," Haugh's,
Manager, Brian Barnim said. "It was also
an appreciation deal for the people who
came back, it was a pretty quiet place when
we came in."
Mr. Barnim explained the reason his
'father's company, Al Barnim Incorporated,
took over the garage was because they have
a similar business in Burgessville.
"My father started the business there in
1967, and it is basically the same type of
business," he said. "We just decided to ex-
pand, and this came up. That is why we are
in Clinton, we weren't necessarily looking in
Clinton."
Mr. Barnim noted that only a few changes
had to be made for the takeover. "Basically,
we had to buy new service trucks, and we
had to do some promoting to let the people
know there was service available and we
have the stock; that was a big thing."
Although they weren't necessarily looking
in this area, and steps had to be taken to win
back some customers, the move has proven
successful.
When questioned about customer
response, Mr. Barnim replied, "It has been
very good, people are coming back. They

know they can get what they want; that we
have what they need." He added, "We
thrive a lot in the agricultural area."

HURONVIEW — A sure indication that
fall is upon us is the fact that Monday after-
noon, the auditorium at Huronview was fill-
ed to capacity as the residents welcomed
back Marie Flynn and the Huron Strings.
After a summer holiday, this group of fine
musicians were in great form and pleased
their audience as they played the lilting
tunes popular in the past and still favorites
of today.
Some of the residents were busy on Tues-
day making autumn decorations and the end
products are now on the walls throughout
the home.
Another successful Tupperware panty
took place in the auditorium Wednesday,
and many new items were on display as well
as the ever popular ones. The show, hosted
by Brenda Glen, features numerous ar-
ticles, useful and practical for gift -giving.
'Several of the folk had the pleasure of van
rides this past week. One group went on a
shopping spree to Kitchener, and another
spent some time at Suncoast Mall in
Goderich. Others were just satisfied with a
tour around the country, enjoying the
.autumn scenery.
Ladies from Unit Four were engaged in
baking pear pies this week, and they turned
out beautifully. One of the clan who got to
sample a piece said the pies were excellent.
Ed Stiles from Goderich was at Huron -
view on Thursday afternoon entertaining
the residents when he played many familiar
tunes on the chapel organ.
Rev. John Pinta conducted Roman
Catholic Mass Friday morning in the
chapel. To finish off an active week,
residents entertained themselves with their
weekly game of bingo.
Sunday morning worship was held in the
chapel, conducted by- Rev. David Snihur.

Mr. and Mrs. Ken Hullv from Londesboro.
Mabel Scott and Margaret McQueen sang a
duet during the service.
In the afternoon, friends and relatives met
in the auditorium where they shared in the
celebration of honoring Grace Duggan's
90th birthday. Grace is a fine lady and has a
warm and friendly personality. It gives
friends pleasure of wishing much happiness
and love to Grace, with hopes of continued
good health for many more birthdays.
A remarkable and well respected
gentleman is Norman Ball who is
celebrating his 102nd birthday. His children
Reg, Clark and Jean joined him in a family
dinner at Huronview. Residents extend
wishes to Mr. Ball and hope that he will en-
joy good health and happiness for birthdays
to come.
Huronview welcomes Grace Crich of Clin-
ton, Myrtle Glazier of Clinton and Elizabeth
