active this year. In th
fall, a successful Men's
Night earned profits o
more than $3,000 for the
Kinsmen Centre.
The club operated
project Toy Drop in
conjunction with Family
and Children's Service
again this year so that
needy children wil
receive toys for Christ
mas.
The Club was also
responsible for the Santa
Claus float which was the
highlight of the 'town's
Santa Claus parade a few
weeks ago.
The Club is planning
their annual Christmas
card party and luncheon
for senior citizens at the
Kinsmen Centre on
December 14.
The main project for
the Zone 1 Kinsmen Clubs
(from Niagara north to
Collingwood and south to
Windsor) is Cystic
Fibrosis (CF). Last year,
in excess of $120,000 was
raised by the Kinsmen for
this cause.
The Goderich Kinsmen
Club has some CF
"bubbles" in some
establishments in town
for donations. Club
members are also
planning a cross country
ski-a-thon for the third
week in January
(weather permitting) to
raise money for CF
research. Watch this
newspaper for further
details later.

"The impact of holiday
purchasing can be huge,"
says the Ontario Industry
and Tourism Minister
Larry Grossman. "If
each family buys enough
Canadian goods this
holiday season to create
just one more day's work
per family, the total
result will be more than
32,000 full-time jobs for
Canada."
Through the co-
operation of the Retail
Council of Canada and
the federal Department
of Industry, Trade and
Commerce, the Ontario
ministry has mounted a
nationwide program to
distribute "Shop
Canadian" point -of -sales
material to retail stores.
The Christmas .retail
push is part of a three-
year "Shop Canadian"
strategy developed by the
Ontario government to
promote the' sale of
Canadian -made goods.

Potential for the tourist
trade in southwestern
Ontario lies in the short
term holidayer. There is
a vast number of people
who are visiting different
places for a few days,
several times throughout
the year, says the South-
western Ontario Travel
Association (SWOTA).
They are interested in
community events, at-
tractions, and facilities.
For' any individual
community these visitors
are spending money
which otherwise wouldn't
have been earned.
Whether they are from a
border state, the Toronto
metro area or just a few
miles down the road, it is
still new found dollars. '
It is for this market
that the official Travel
Guide of Southwestern
Ontario ,is published. It
features communities
throughout the area with
their attractions, dates of
events and facilities
available. Detailed maps
of each county are in-
cluded to encourage
travel throughout the
rural areas.
The 1979 edition of the
Southwestern Ontario
Travel Guide will be
published in March 1979.

When ' a neighbour
found nine-year-old Mary
Ellen chained to a bed in
1893, she discovered that
not one New York state
law prevented cruelty to
children. The public
outcry in both Canada
and the U.S. led to the
world's first child
protection Iw.
More than 80 years
later, according to the
Canadian Horne and
School. and Parent-
Teacher Federation, the
abused or neglected child
is still too frequently the
victim of an apathetic
con.muni0 or neighbours
who hope the problem
will go away..
The national group
representing Canadian
e parents announced at a
Toronto press conference
f on November 14 that all
of its provincial and local
associations have
received a pamphlet
entitled The
Child... Everybody's
s Responsibility. It is in-
tended t focus on a
1 problem that was not
- even seriously resear-
ched in Canada until the
1960s.
The pamphlet, the
result of more than one
year of research by a
Federation committee
based in Prince Edward
Island, is an attempt to
increase understanding
among parents and to
emphasize the im-
portance of early
detection. The emphasis
is on prevention rather
.than punishment for
those involved.
Copies off the pamphlet
are available from the
CHSPTF head office at
240 Eglinton Avenue
East, Toronto M4P 1K8.

trouble he felt he was respected for his par-
ticipation.
"Good discussion makes for good govern-
ment," he told council.
Judge Frances Carter, who gave Tinney the
oath of office, told council that last year when
Ginn was elected warden he said council had
someone- who would "put some spirit in
council'.' This -year he referred to T'inney's
membership on his township's fire board and
told council it had someone who would "set the
county on fire".
Carter said Huron County had a lot to offer.
He said in today's society "bigness is good-
ness" adding that nothing could be farther from
the truth. He said Huron's agricultural
resources were far greater than many other
counties in Ontario. He said the county's rural
base kept the work ethic alive here. He said
farmers in Huron still believe in "an honest
day's work". He added that they "don't always
get an honest day's pay for their work but by
golly they give an honest day's work".
"Don't sit in the sunshine crying about
yesterday's rain and don't sit in the rain crying
about tomorrow's sunshine," said Carter.
"Show the people of this province that this
county is the banner county of the province."
