I don't mean the farmer must hug his hogs, or the teacher must cherish an admirationfor the chairman of the school board. What I mean is that the farmer must have an abiding love for the growing things, animal or veg- etable. And the teacher must have affection and respect for the woung animals and vege- tables he is raising. (Don't think theeraren't both in the classroom. Some of those kids would gr ow to prodigious heights if watered daily). The more I think of it, the more I wonder why I didn't go into farming instead of teach- ing.

Berry, told Huron County coun- cil Monday. He said although the highway account showed a deficit of -lightly more than $78,000 for the period ending September 31, the county should end •the •ear with a balance. Highway "xpenditures during this per- iod were slightly over $928,000. County revenue for the same -period was $402,250 and expen- ditures were $382,000. He said the highway department must carry out its major programs within a short time and as a result builds up large expen- clitures. Revenue is not avail- able to offset these expenditur- es until the end of the year. Mr. Berry said this is a con- stant problem and it would seem either the program will have to be reduced or funds increased to keep up the finan- cial end of the department. Discuss New Building Lack of accommodation may result in Huron County having a second county building or a possible addition to the pres- hausting profession for the ent courthouse an the square. rich, placid life on the land.

It must start with a "thank you" for the trust which you -- and three million fellow Canadians — have shown in the Bank of Montreal, by depositing your savings with us. Throughout 1961 your bank kept that money working hard for private individuals and for the community as a John Bannister, Manager Bank of Montreal Zurich Branch bate Huron County council un- animously authorized the pro- perty committee to investigate the possibilities of a new build- ing. The committee was also authorized to hire an archetect to prepare plans for the pro- posed building or investigate an addition to the present courthouse. Option Taken The committee previously had taken a $500 option on prop- erty located at South, Britain- nia and Picton streets, owned. by the town. Sale price of the property is $7,500. With the option good for a year, council deferred action on purchase until a report is forthcoming from the committee. The committee also recom- mended that in planning the proposed new building an al- '.owance be made for expansion. In the present building, chair- man, Reeve V. L. Becker said, "We cannot build any higher as a provision was made at the time it was erected." Further recommendation was that in planning the new build- ing the following offices be transferred to or incorporated into the new building: Huron County Children's Aid Society; probation officers; detention home; juvenile and family court judge's office and family court room (also magistrate's quar- ters); the Huron County Lib- rary. Needs Studied Members were told that for some time the property com- mittee hashad under consider- ation the advisability of making more office space for certain offices within the courthouse,. At present the Surrogate Court and sheriff's office are in need of different arrangements and the children's aid office needs more space. There is also a need for an office for the em- ergency measures co-ordinator. The probation officer is also located in temporary quarters. Hire Assistant County Council approved the hiring of an assistant curator for the Huron County Museum. Council chairman Clifford Dunbar, of the historic commit- tee. said duties of the assistant curator would be to assist the present curator, J. H, Neill, par- ticularly to carry out adminis- tration work. Mr. Neil, has in- formed the committee he finds work at the museum more de- manding. This year 21,650 visitors toured the museum bringing a revenue of $5,288. Council was told preparation of a history of Huron County is in preliminary stages, Council backed a committee recommendation that the 1962 council set aside the sum of $10,000 in their budget to pub- lish the county's history. A por- tion of the outlay is expected to be recovered through grants from the Canada Council and sale of the book. Huron County's 1961 road program has been completed within the estimates allotted. Total expenditure will again ex- ceed xceed $1,000,00. Chairman of the roads com- mittee Clayton Smith said it is end the year with a $400 sur - anticipated the department will• plus. The total by-law amounted to $915,000, said the chairman, and with the $65,000 expendi- ture on the development road and the value of work done or material sold to other munici- palities the expenditureswill exceed $1,000,000. Speaks on Agriculture Huron County has not yet been made a brucellosis certi- fied free area as there have been a few tardy individuals who did not see fit to co-operate with the majority, Douglas Miles, Huron Countyo agricul- tural representative, told Hu- ron County council last week. Expects Action He said it is hoped that these half dozen or less people will soon co-operate and allow the county the privileges of a "free area." On August 31, 34 countries in the province had 'been declared brucellosis free andat that time Huron had 167,988 cattle in 4,626 herds and 1,726 reac- tors in. 877 herds, said Mr. Miles, farmers of this eounty had a good year for the pro- duction of crops although they MISS MARY McEWEN Miss Mary McEwen, 94, oldest resident of Hay Township, pas- sed away in South Huron Hos- pital, Exeter, on Saturday, November 25, where she had had a trying one to get the crops harvested.
