Itis one for which the board and staff waited, longingly for years, but it is now a reality.' It 'Works automatically, at the touch of a button. It is large enough to take in a cot with a patient and attendants and it has,' an outside door, where a patient •can be received direct from the ambulance, w!thout jolting through doorways. No more carry- ing of patients up, and down stairs, 'which must have been hard on both patients and attendants. The putting in of the elevator had to be postpon- 'ed until the new Wing could be built, as there was no room • for it as the building was. And .the remodelling of the building was as nad e possible only by the loan from Mrs. J. V. Diehl of the sum of $6000,00, an offer, which was gratefully accepted .''by the board. -.LITTLE LOCALS Miss Florence ,Taylor of Parkhill began her instructions in health edu- cation and home nursing at the Short Course this. week.

Judge T. M. Costello, officiating in the act of adninister•ing the oath, of 'office to Mr. Sweitzer, said that this . was the third time 'since hisarrival in this county that he has had this duty to perform. His Honor • stated that it was a pleasure and privilege to officiate- at ;such a ceremony. "i want to know you men' and I want you 'to feel free while in --the .court- house to come to my chambers and discuss your problems with nae," said the judge.- "There are a number of new faces on the council this year and I miss the old ones who gave • a tone of dignity to the. council. I hope the new members will be as great a credit' le their municipalities and to the county as the former imembers were. We are .told that we are on the eve of better times and I noticed that as Mr. Sweitzer took his oath of office, the sun came out and shone on him," stated His' Honor. Judge Cos- tello said that the warden has a good collection of men with whom to work and that .there were just enough of the older men to keep the younger ones in check. The judge urged the councillors to remember, when delib- erating on grave questions that will evidently arise in the work, that they represent Huron County. Judge Costello congratulated the ex -warden and said that though he would not be present at all the sessions that be would know pretty, well what took place as there are many things that trickle down to the judge's chambers. The speaker said that he hoped the warden -is big enough, as the old war- den was, to keep the members hi their place in the course of the meetings. The key to the county was then handed to Mi. Sweitzer by the ex warden, Mr. Elliott.• Expresses Gratitude Mr. Sweitzer, in replying to these addresses, said that it afforded hint •:rent pleasure to have received .the i'aii^^ and that he would try to be a credit to the county. He said that he felt out of place because he was not a "platform :man." Speaking of Mr. Elliott, the warden said it would be ahnost impossible to fill his place. Mr. Elliott being 100 per cent. effi- cient, but with the aid of the mem- bers he would do his best. "Some' years ago the county delll, cit was $50;000 and now there is a $0,000 surplus. The credit - for the great deal of this should be given to the clerk and treasurer,' said Mr. Sweitzer: Because of this surplus the speaker felt that when June coniesthe mill rate should be reduc- ed to relieve the taxpayers. Mr. Sweitzer said that sometimes matters arise which arenot entirely covered in the county rules and regu- lations and in'iirovements might often be made in these .rules: Mr; Sweitaer then -called on Mr. Roberts to read a few suggestions-that•had been drawn ECLIPSE OF SUN VIS- ISLE HERE ON :FEB- • RUARY. ` 3RD • A partial:,esiipse of the sun on Feb.' 8rd will: he visible iir Western Ontario; proirided'Weather :conditions are, right: aind will be •. the only ec- lipse of the sun Which North 'Amen- ab'an re'siilbnta? wilt be able' to see throughoiit(s 1935.' r The ,eclipse, will 'take' plhce,?dui+ing -the'-morning with its • ]teight'' , • Seached,'t !About .11.16 s'cloek.i;rA: littleAesia that 75 per Sant of'.•thensemi! diirfsee l!' ilt ,be!
