A seat on the board of directors has become available as the result of the resignation of Mary Anne Dempsey. Mrs. Dempsey served on the board for two years as the elected member from Goderich. She resigned from the board at the September meeting. Her resignation was necessitated by a move to Woodstock where she and her fami- ly now reside. Chairman of the board, Art Clark noted, "The people of Goderich should be advised that they have been well represented." In their goodbye bouquets to Mrs. Demp- sey, board members spoke of her dedica- tion, her persistance and excellence in her work. Most recently she played an impor- tant part in the development of a new public relations program for the HCBE. Mrs. Dempsey' said that her work on the board had been a valuable learning ex- perience and she was proud of the results, and the opportunity to work with a dedicated, talented staff. "I don't think that public education has seen the last of Mary Ann Dempsey," Mr. Clark noted. A replacement will be sought immediate- ly. The board will advertise for participants who wish to secure the appointment. Letters of application will be studied by board members and a new trustee will be chosen b' a secret ballot vote.

Hayter) The fact that slavery is a thing of the past was disproved at Central Huron Secondary School (CHSS) last week. On September 21 Grade 9 students were auctioned off to raise money for the student's council in a "grub auction". Auctioneer Richard Lobb carried out the auctioning duties, and was able to raise $800 for the school. The highest bidder for the day was Gord Collins, who spent $100 overall during the sale. These young ladies, along with their Grade 9 counterparts, had to act as slaves for two days. (David Emslie photo) Special events here for Library Week The third annual Ontario Public Library Week will be held October 19 - 25, 1987. The theme of this year's celebration of public libraries is "Your Card is the Key". A library card is the patron's key to accessing the library's full range of services. In turn, the library is the key to a vast information network, a repository of books and materials that can spark a user's imagina- tion and provide inspiration, recreation or continuing education. In keeping with the theme, libraries across Ontario, including the Huron County Public Library, will be launching a membership drive to sign up new library members from October 1 - 25. The library that signs up the most new members, in pro- portion to the size of its community, will be awarded the framed original art for this year's library week poster designed by Carmen Dunjko Associates. The competi- tion between libraries will be a friendly one clnre all lihrariec that hold an effective membership drive will be winners no mat- t r who wins the prize. To add some incentive,. the first 100 new members of the Huron County Public Library, between October 1 - 25, will receive a card holder and key chain with their new library membership card. Membership in the Huron County Public Library is free fo 2 -WAY RADIO Introducing Canadian Marconi Company Featuring: * Fully synthesized (no crystal) design for on channel operation FOREVER * Super sensitive receiver * 25 Watt transmitter * Large built. in loudspeaker for BOOMING audio *Small size *Rugged dependability * Pleasing design "Call the Communicators NOW for Model T-530 M.S.L. $795°O NOW ONLY $65900 INCLUDES 'Privacy Tone Option Immediate installation.'
