When it's time to have the dentist check
daughter's teeth, Mrs. Smith naturally reaches
for the telephone, that helpful "member -of -the -
family" with the habit of getting things done.
When you look back over your day, it's some-
times surprising to realize in just how many
little ways the telephone has helped you ...how
it adds so much convenience and comfort to
everyday living.

Re Dog Proclamation
•
s.
In view of the disregard by the general
public of the recent proclamation --
issued by the Town Council re the
confinement of dogs, and' the fact that
they are not to run at large at any
time, the Council feels that charges
must be laid under this By-law.
Any owner or harborer of a dog who
allows it to run at large can be, sum-
moned into court. The fine in a case of
this kind could be $50.00 and costs.
The Council and myself would ask all
citizens concerned to comply with the
laws and avoid the consequences.

January Session
County Council
A decision on whether to call
tenders for a proposed $1,100,000
addition to the Huron County
Home was deferred Thursday by
Huron County- Council. Reports
on the proposal were referred
back to committee, and will come
up for discussion again when the
Council holds a one -day session
in March,
Reeve \Vm. McKenzie, Exeter,
said he was not ready to make a
decision on proposal until more
information is put before Council
about the estimated cost of such
extras as furniture, equipment,
landscaping, and building of new
roadways at the .HCH property
south of Clinton. Unofficial esti-
mates have been that the total
Cost of the project might be
about 51,400,000.
Reeve J. II. Donnelly, Goder-
ich, said that before he could
vete tor or against the proposed
addition, be would have to know
more about the estimated needs
for additional -bed space. There
has been no information yet put
before Council, he pointed out, to
indicate whether a building de-
signed for 202 or 203 beds would
be too small or too big for the
needs 00 the coming years.
The proposed 'audition would
increase the capacity of the
Home from 100 ;beds to slightly
more than 200, be demolishing
the older part of the present
Home, and building a new wing
t0 accommodate 143. The newer
part of the present Horne would
remain, to accommodate about 60
inmates.
The subject will he revived
when Council holds the first of
two Short extra sessions planned
for this year. At Its inaugural
session this week, Council decid-
ecl 10 augment ,its usual series er
three sesetae% Jail,uary, Juno, and
NPYeiniber, holding, two =o -

l 0 ldi'i a'g
day sessions, 'in Marts and Sep.
towbar. .
The governnlei t gr'a'nt toward
the .project said "John Beery, the
county olerlc-treesuT'er, would be
at tike rate ,of 50 per cent, of the
post of ,eonstruetlou. n the 'come
teo's share were financed by'de-
benture, over a 10 -year period,'
and; 4f the ,de'bent'ures could be
marketed with an interest rate
of 'five percent, tlae . annual cost
to the -county for the next 10
years, Ole said, vvohid -be of the
order of $112;•500 a year.
In 1959, Mr. -,Berry .noted, -the
county will finish paying .for' the
new courehouse, with a .illnait an-
nual payment of $65,000. Presum-
ably, he said, this amount could
be applied, next year toward the
cost of financing an addition 'to,
the Harron County. Home. How-
ever the financing of a Home ad-
dddtton midgut he done, he predict-
ed, it pis going to cost nearly two
mills a year en the tax rate, to
finance it over a 101year 'period.
Total cost of work done by the
Huron, county roads department
du 1958 topped the 51,000,000
mark, and the work projected for
1959 will bring the department-
al spending to needy $1,500,000,
said ;Cecil Blake, reeve of Ash-
e- d, when lie presenter) the an-
nual road report to Huron ,Coun-
ty -Council, Thursday. Reeve
Blake was chairman of the road
committee for 195S.
The amount ;budgeted for
work on the county road systems
in 1958, he noted, was $800,000,
and the amount actually spent
was 5799,375.1-8. In 'addition, the
county road craws carried out
$107,761 worth of work on the
•Ontario development road pro-
ject from Dunlop through Car-
low, and also -Odd work valued at
564,389 ter townships, neighbor-
ing counties, and private bull -
victuals who paid for work by the
County department.
In the year now -beginning, the
road committee expects, the
county department may do about
$400,000 worth of work for the
province, on the development
road through Carlow, as well as
carrying out another program of
$800,000 or more on the county
roads.
The program for paving, and
rebuilding of ,county roads, may
have to be trimmed this year,
warned County Engineer J. W.
Bnfitnell. It seems certain, he
said, that the cost of snowplow-
ing :this winter is going to run
far hoyp td -rise costs fora nor -
'mai winter; and the coustruotiolk
•ikaogram for the summermay
have 'to be ,cut to ke0p wltlrirl the
budget,
Blast winter, snow'plowieg cost
the oounto; $46,390; this year the
cost may min as 011511. as 5130,000,
judging by experience to date,
Britnell said:
The present forecast, .said Mr,
Brttnell, 1s that by the end or
Janmare, snowplowing will have
cost $60,090. Costs last winter, to
the end of January, were $37,000.
"We have 23 pieces of equip -
moult," Ma•. lSritnel-1 noted, "and
it 'costs the county must about
a
51,000 a dayto have the lotus
0 I
out"
Council will have to be ,prepar-
ed, -Mr. Britnell warned, to see
tour lopped '.off the new con-
struction program for thissuns
mer.
l "We'r•e burdened with a *heavy
snow -removal program," he said,
',"and I guess 'we'll just hare tO
beat= It;"
I The road committee recom-
mended to Council that an 11,ton
lo'a'd limit 'be ;puton the 300 -foot
steel bridge that crosses the Malt-
land River at Benmiller. Reeve
Blake said he did not .believe 'this
, would impose any headship on
the motoring public, because the
Higthway Traffic Aot imposes all
t 11 -ton load limit for roads of the
class that lead -to the Benmriiler
bnidge,
ley comparison with normal
Tates for renting equ'bpment, the
county roads department showed
a profit-of5101,430 from owning
its osvn equipment, the road cone
mibtee report noted.
"As you know'," said Reeve
Blake, "the county owns a great
deal ,ef equipment. This year we
made a theoretical profit of $101,-
430 on this egauiipmaent, That • is
the normal contractors' rental
rates, over .the 'operating cost, by
this amount"
