Octogenarians.
receive
certificates
GODERICH TWP.-During the township
sesquicentennial celebrations the 1-5-0 com-
mittee honored octogenarians with presen-
tions of 1-5-0 certificates. Since only 35
seniors were present at a special ceremony
when these were handed out, a large
number of the certificates still remain to be
distributed.
At the ceremony a photo was taken of the
octogenarians present, and the 1-5-0 com-
mittee has had copies made wishing to give
these to all octogenarians - whether or not
they were able to be in the photo. It was felt
that those seniors not able to be in the photo
would still enjoy a picture of their friends.
Families of all qualifying seniors are ask-
ed to pick up their photos (and certificates,
if not yet received) at the Township Com-
munity Centre, Holmesville on Sunday,
December 15 from 2 till 4 p.m.
If you are unable to pick up your photo and
certificate at that time, please contact
Gerry
Ginn (524-4163 )
Alison
Lobb (482-
7167 )
482-7167)
or Hazel McCreath (524-7436) to make
alternate arrangements.
Goderich Township 1-5-0 souvenirs, in-
cluding the remaining Disney Wagon plates
and township history books, will also be
available for sale at that time, and would
make an ideal Christmas gift for someone
on your list.
On that day Alison Lobb and her commit-
tee will also have available for further
proof-reading the histories submitted for the
Goderich Township Families books. Unfor-
tunately (since Alison is presently teaching
full time) a large number of stories still re-
main to be entered on the computer. Those
not available for proofing on December 14
will have to be offered on a day next
January. If your history was one of those not
ready for proofreading in September, check
with Alison as to when it will be ready (482-
7167).
This is also the last date for bringing in
photos for the Families book! Please make
sure you have your name on each photo and
include a list of the names, and the date, for
each photo. '
People who have ordered their book by
mail can also use this opportunity to pick up
their certificate (or proof of purchase). It is
hoped that people will make an effort to
proof-read the patrons' list. Many times the
complete address has not been designated,
nor the maiden name of the wife. It is your
responsibility to check the spellings and
make sure all information is as YOU wish
it!
The Families book is expected to go to the
printer in February and should be available
for distribution by May 1986. Copies can still
be ordered - for $40. Remember, the number
printed will be based on the numbers
preordered! If you wish a book for yourself,
for a friend or relative, you must order ( and
pay) in advance.
Don't forget - Sunday, December 15th: 2-4
p.m. - Octogenarian's certificates and
photos available at the Holmesville Hall.

Photos to go on
drivers' licences
in February
TORONTO - Ontario Minister of
Transportation and Communications Ed
Fulton recently confirmed that the pro-
vince's photo driver licensing system will go
into operation February 3, 1986 with the
mailing out of renewals.
"Drivers will continue to renew their
licences every three years on their date of
birth as before." said Fulton, "now,
however,- they will have to come into a
ministry 'photo site' to have their picture
taken."
These sites...alinost 400 of them...include
all Driver and Vehicle licence offices, ITT('
Driver Examination Centres and selected
travel points and OPP offices in the more,
remote areas of northern Ontario.
The new two-part photo licence will con-
sist of a laminated photo card and licence
card.
„Photo licensing provides a more positive•
identification method," explained Fulton.
"It prevents the misuse of driver licences,
and offers a virtually tamper -proof
licence."
In addition, all new drivers will
automatically enter the photilicensing pro-
gram. Those requiring a replacement
licence fit in the same category
Reinstated drivers (other than those
suspended for medical -related reasons i will
be advised they must get a photo upon
reinstatement.
Photo licensing programs are existence in
Alberta, British Columbia and Prince Ed-
ward Island as well as .all 50 American
states and the District of Columbia.
-To offset the cost of the new program,
renewal licence fees have been set at $21
every three years," said the Minister.
