Regardless, don't put too much trust in passing signs, Early Pioneers (Continued) Mrs. Nettie Harvey was a Sun- day last visitor with Mrs Jo- sephine Ducharme and other members of the home. Mr. G, Meyers, of the Pro- vincial Park in the pinery, was a recent caller with yours truly. Much was accomplished in bringing back incidents which had passed in the primitive days of this area and Grand Bend and surroundings. Mrs, Theresa Hartman and son Robert were Sunday last visitors with the former's par- ents, Mr. and Mrs. F. Du- charme Mr, and Mrs. Dolph Sopha motored to Mount Carmel on Sunday where they spent the day with Mr. and Mrs. John Mahoney. Mr, and Mrs Cyril Masse are spending a month in their farm home south of St Joseph, This year the delayed Jan- uary thaw, traditional in the past, missed out and was post- poned till the present month of February. The change of weather was much welcomed and in some parts was regard- ed as beautiful. It meant a death blow to the high snow banks which J a n u a r y had dumped in some centres, cov- ering the ground to a depth of several feet. It is unusual for the month of January to pass on without a thaaw but this year was an exception and the month of February took over the change and at time of writ- ing riting gave us seasonable weather. Some are looking for an early spring. When the days are getting Longer, the sun more forceful with its rays and to add to the belief of an early spring, the red -breasted robin has left the southern states and St. Peter's Lutheran Church Lev.

Last week we tried to explain to you the pioneer method of storing and curing their meat, Poi and berries which were their main food. They had to find ways to preserve that food for even months to come. In those long passed years there were no freezers or refrigera- tors as we have today to pile f food in and with electric power to give the proper temperature for safe keeping. No, they were minus of that so they had to replaced those of today with something of their own inven- tion, such as we told you in past issues, Snow houses for winter stor- ing of meat worked well at least for the winter months which carried them well into late spring. For the summer process for the safe keeping of fish and fruit, as aforetold, they dug a trench in the ground for the purpose of curing and drying their fruit and smoking their fish. After placing sev- eral layers of fish, covered with layers of berry bushes to the top for three days •on a slowly burning fire, the fish were re- moved and strung between two trees. The dried berries were stored in a container made from birch bark, There is nothing to prevent us from believing that the well - learned scientist of that day may have taken a tip from those old settlers, to give us the freezing system we all en- joy today and as well the cur- ing system. 0 Employment In Huron Again At All -Time High One hundred and twenty- seven persons were placed in gainful employment by the Goderich National Employment Service during the month of January. In the same month a year ago, 48 persons were placed in jobs. C. M. Jutras, Goderich NES manager, stated that the no- ticeable increase in job oppor- tunities was due primarily to continued stability in most manufacturing plants across Huron County and a much im- proved employment picture in winter construction, particular- ly in the town of Goderich. Better employment condi- tions are reflected in the unem- ployment figures for the area serviced by the Goderich NES, which comprises most of Huron County. At the end of January, 1966, 440 persons were actively reg- istered for employment with the Goderich NES, compared to 584 at the same period a year ago, This decline in unem- ployment applied to both male and female, with 118 fewer males and 26 fewer females.
