Along with keeping in
contact with some 100 clubs in
the county, the home
'economists also work with
other ladies groups. They
plan to attend WI area
meetings and often act as
speakers and also help to
organize county food and
't clothing programs. -
"Even if the ladies on Mary
Street were having a coffee
group they could come to us,"
noted Miss Bird.
"We're also open for
homemaking enquiries, food
questions, consumer con-
cerns and clothing
problems," added Miss
McClenaghan.
The amount of work and
involvement in the county
prompted the Ministry of
Agriculture to appoint two
home economists for Huron.
In the past, only one has
been in charge of the area but
according to Miss
McClenaghan, Huron has the
largest participation of any
county in the province and
there is a very heavy
workload here.
"It's because it's so rural.
There aren't many other
groups, Io that's why 4-H is so
popular," added Miss Bird.
Although both girls are still
getting acquainted with this
area, they, along with the
ministry feel there may be a
need for programs to involve
the 20-30 year old women.
Nothing has been•decided on
this, but the ministry is in the
process of studying and
making changes in'' the
present programs.
"We're still getting our feet
on the ground but maybe by
next spring we'll find areas to
concentrate on," explained
Miss Bird.
"Maybe then we can give
some time for extra help in
groups and special activities
they would like to start,"
explained Miss
McClenaghan.
The home economists are
hoping for lots of active in-
volvement and participation
from the girls and the women
in the county. They haven't
had a chance to meet many of
the people they will be
dealing with but will be as
soon as the 4-H clubs get
underway.
Miss McClenaghan noted,
"We haven't been over
burdened with calls yet,
maybe people don't know that
we're here." - -
However, in the upcoming
weeks and months, the new
economists should be leading
very busy lives throughout
Huron County.

for to help run the program. A
group has been formed to
apply for it.
Volunteers will be required
from across the whole county
to drive the participants to
Huronview and to help with
the programs and it is hoped
that people will volunteer
perhaps one day a week or
even one a month. Mileage
may be paid.
Later it is hoped that
satellite centres may be
opened in Wingham and
Exeter 'areas to cut down on
the distance to be driven.
Mrs. St. Jean said her first
priority would be to learn who
the shut-ins are and en-
courage them to come out for
the activities.
Betty Cardno, Seaforth,
said the hardest part will be
to convince people to come
out. She said the first to be
contacted would be those on
waiting lists to get into
Huronview or some other
nursing homes.

I want to sub -let my apart-
ment. There are 'still five -
months left on my lease and
my landlord has told me that -I
can't sublet.
What are my rights, if any?
Your landlord has no legal
rights,as far as we know to
enforce this self-made rule
upon you, becatt.se unless your
lease says something to the
contrary, you do have a right
sublet to whomever you
However we must point out
that before you go ahead and
sublet, you should be 'aware
that YOU are still liable on the
lease if your sub -tenant fails to
pay, or any damage is done by
the new tenant to the apart-
ment.

My wife's young sister was
involved in an accident to tier
car. I believe. she made some
statements while she was in
shock and I've heard sbout
people who are in this con-
dition who do indeed make
damaging statements which
they later regret.
Can you clarify just what
anyone involved in an ac-
cident is obliged to tell the
other driver? The police?
Section 140 of •the Highway
Traffic Act states that any
driver.involved in an accident,
is obliged to give the name and
address of the registered
owner of the vehicle to any
police officer, or anyone else -
who has either witnessed, or
sustained loss in the accident.

Besides this, (he in-
vestigating officer *ill ask to
see your driver's license, the
vehicle registration and proof
of insurance. He will also ask
you for a brief explanation of
how the accident occurred.
If at this .time you are not
quite sure of any details, don't
try to ad lib, and if you feel
groggy from a blow On the
head, say so. If there is
something which you think
could be damaging to you, tell
the officer that you do not wish
to comment further until you
have spoken to a lawyer.
Remember, never make a
blanket admission of fault, or
agree with the other driver's
assertion that it was all your
fault.
It is also wise tO contact
your insurance company
immediately, and don't sign
any document without prior
knowledge of your insurance
agent, a lawyer, or both.
