Simply pick up the new Huron County Infor- mation Directory and you'll have the infor- mation at your finger tips. The Huron Community Services Council has compiled the directory with the assistance of a Summer Employment Ex- perience Development (SEED) grant and through. the Farmers In Transition program.. This new directory is an updated version of the Huron Information and Multi -Service Centre's 1979 directory. An extensive list of services, organiza- tions and municipal telephone numbers can be found in the directory and are organized geographically by municipality. The directory was introduced at a lun- cheon held at Huronview on April 10 with MPP and Minister of Agricutlure and Food, Jack Riddell, as the guest speaker. Speaking about the $6,000 government grant, Mr. Riddell said, "It is money we consider well spent." He also commended the Huron County Community Services Council on their in- itiative of "such a useful and timely tool" as it is now that the people of Huron County need a directory such as this. Only 50 copies were available at the lun- cheon, but another 200 copies are to be printed. These copies will be distributed to all of the municipalities and to at least 25 farm organizations, libraries, schools and service organizations. According to Tom Hanrahan, who was the chairman for the meeting, the community services council feels the directories will be well used if placed in these locations. "We are limited (to the number of copies), so I don't think it is best to distribute them privately. Instead, distribute them to groups who could make use of them," he explained. It is hoped that the directory will be up- dated regularly to help the public find the services they need as that is the objective of the community services council. "I hope the directory will help people who feel at lose ends get information and help," concluded Mr. Hanrahan. Twenty-one voices delight congregation The congregation of Hensall United Church met Palm Sunday under the leader- ship of George Cowan. Belva Fuss was at the organ and, Debbi Wood, junior choir director, at the piano.

Mr. Cowan explained the events of Holy Week to the children, showing them pictures from an illustrated Bible. The sermon was on "Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord." Greeting the congregation was Cecil Pep- per and ushers were, Dennis Martin, Lloyd Ferguson, Randy Parker and Rod Parker.
