Still, he told council, if one ad can draw so many inquiries it proves the county was right in turning to specialty advertising, and he added he has no doubt it will pa? off. "If Huron can pick up one industry from these &IS, it should prove this kind of advertising is the type to which Huron County should adhere." , He told council he will be sending out follow-up letters to the inquiring companies later this month. Goderieh Reeve Eileen Palmer wondered why council wasn't provided with a list of the names of the companies which had inquired. She said the town would be interested in pursuing contacts with the industries on its- own, if the county effort fails. Mr. Cummings- said he wasn't trying to interest the companies in any particular town, but he agreed to cooperate with the tewn. Morris Township Reeve Bill Elston urged a strong follow- up to any contacts. In other business council approved the 1980 budgets for its variouscommittees, in- cluding a wage grid for the highways department aitned at bringing the county wages into line with those of ad- joining counties.

In previous years the town has been insured through Cowan, a firth specializing in municipal insurance.

WRI1ANS SOTHERN Renwick reported that since then the town has had an in- surance specialist look over the policies and he found them all to be acceptable.
