E. Wawanosh considers
chrance-Times, August 19, 1981
buying property on 10th
MISS PIGGY—Megan Clark concentrates on her fig-
urine during a papier mache workshop for children
offered by the Wingham library last Friday. The fig-
ures were molded with modeling clay and then cover-
ed with papier mache.
Eask,Wawanosh council is
seriously considering the
purchase of one-half acre of
land from George McGee on
the 10th concession to be
used to build up the road
allowance near the 10th line
bridge.
The area in question
presents a potential hazard
because the sides of the road
are crumbling. The extra
one-half acre would be used
to build up the road
allowance and prevent the
loss of soil from the side of
the road.
Council has not' yet signed
an offer to purchase the
property from Mr. McGee,
but has set a tentative price
of $600 for the piece of land.
In other business, council
decided, after. much
discussion, to find another
lawyer to handle township
business. Robert Campbell
was the previous township
solicitor. John Goodall of
Wingham will be retained as

PIERRE TRUDEAU might not be flattered by this
rendition of him. Mr. Sakasov, one of the older par-
ticipants in a papier mache workshop offered through
the Wingham library last week, used a magazine
photo as inspiration. The model is the first step in a
process leading to the creation of a papier mache
mask.

Young couples' conference
stresses farming leadership'
A practical approach to The keynote speaker at the .to relax and take part in
farming and leadership was conference was Don Huff, activities including ailing,
emphasized at the Young
Couples' Conference
organized this summer by
the United Co-operatives of
Ontario.
Nineteen farm couples
from across the 'province,
including Mr. and Mrs.
Bruce Campbell from Bel -
grave, representing all areas
of agriculture, were involved
in the three-day program
held July 15-17 at the
Muskoka Sands Inn,
Gravenhurst.
"The session acts as a two-
way communication tool for
both the young couples and
UCO," said Reg Cressman,
director of public relations
and coordinator of the three-
year-old program. "Not only
do we provide them with the
opportunity to learn more
about agri-business and the
Co-op, but it also gives UCO
a direct line to their concerns
and requirements. And, in
turn, it allows the Co-op to
anticipate their needs.
"Many of these people will
be the community decision -
makers of tomorrow and it is
therefore important for us to
not only help them prepare
for this, but to anticipate
their goals and objectives."
Because of tough economic
conditions, young farmers
need information they can
apply to their day-to-day
farm and family activities,
Mr Cressman added. In
keeping with this, UCO staff
conducted sessions on
community involvement,
personal needs identification
and goal setting, the history
of a gri cu I tura I cooperatives
and the scope and impact of
UCO's present retail, manu-
facturing and marketing
services
vice president for farm
products marketing,. who
presented an overview of the

Participants, mostof

local communities, churches
and agricultural organiza-
tions, shared..their outlooks
concerning their needs as
husbands, wives and couples
and, on a larger scope, as
farmers, with each other and
representatives of UCO.
The couples also had time
para,sailing, windsurfing,
water skiing or swimming.
UCO is the largest farm
supply. and marketing
cooperative 'in Ontario. It
provides a complete line of
farm inputs, including, feed,
seed, fertilizer, petroluem

than 100 outlets across the
