With the artificial ice campaign
Elated to start in Blyth in the
not too distant future, we find
ourselves wondering if local res -
Idents realize what a whole -heart-
ed effort it will take to instal
the ice in the arena,
Yes, if the campaign is to be
successful and the dream of arti-
ficial ice for Blyth is to become
a reality, the support of every
lust one of us will be needed.
No one in the community would
like to see artificial ice in the
arena any more than yours truly,
and we would hesitate to say any-
thing
nything that would discourage any-
one
nyone from donating. But we must
face the facts.
As we reported in The Stand-
ard last week, another $16,000
is needed besides what has al-
ready been collected. This, to
say the least, is no mean feat
for a municipality the size of
Blyth. But it can be done, there
is no doubt to that fact. But
it's going to mean a darned good
donation from every one of us.
To give you a good example:
not too long ago the Lions Club
canvassed the village for dona-
tions to the Canadian National
Institute for the Blind. This was
considered to be an extremely
successful campaign. Just last
week the CNIB and the Lions
Club placed a letter in The Stand-
ard thanking the people for their
wonderful support. Total monies
received amounted to $282.25 --
very worth while, but a far cry
from the $16,000 that is needed
to put artificial ice in the local
arena,
Yes it will be quite an en-
deavour, and before long you will
have a canvasser calling at your
home or place of business ask-
ing for a donation. He or she will
not be calling because they like
the job of going around trying
to sqeeze money out of people.
But will only be doing it because
they feel there is a real need for
artificial ice in this community,
If you have ever canvassed for
money, and with the numerous
campaigns that have been carried
out during the past years, in all
probability you have, then you
will realize what a tough job it
is • • probably the most "'unwant-
cu job" in the world, Please
make your canvasser feel at home
and make his job just a little
bit easier, We thank you for
him in advance.

great improvement, A new pop
cooler had been added to the

ASHFIELD A(CLAIMED 1967
WARDEN
Donald A1cKenzie, Reeve of
Ashfield 'I'ownship, was acclaimed
Warden of Huron County for
1967 - Canada's Centennial Year -
at the opening session of County
Council in Goderieh on Tuesday.
Kenneth Stewart, 1966 Warden
promised -Warden McKenzie an
interesting year • "one you will
never forget" = as he presented
his successor with the chain of
office, the golden key' of office
and the gavel.
.fudge R. E. Hetherington, who
administered the oath of office to
Warden McKenzie asked that
county councillors re -dedicate
themselves to "streamline" their
own branches of government and
to "harmonize" with all other
phases of government in Canada.
Judge Hetherington said coun-
ty council might strive for _a "last-
ing memorial, a record of its own
excellence in the performance of
its duty."
Rev. J. Donald MacDonald, of
North Street United Church, in
Goderich, conducted the brief de•
volional.
Speaking to council, Warden
McKenzie, called the twelve mon•
the now beginning a "levelling;
out year" after the problems of
1966, including wage agreements
in the county. He urged mem-
hers to. develop .a greater appre-
ciation for Canada during Centen-
nial year and to encourage appre-
ciation in others..
The only other nominee for
the position of Warden was Cal-
vin Krauter, Reeve of Brussels.
The popular councillor told his
associates that he would decline
the nomination because he had
pledged his support to A1cKenzie,
but declared lie would definitely
be a candidate for Huron's top
office in 1968.
On hand for the Ceremony were
Warden McKenzie's wife, Flor-
ence, his daughter, Donna, his'
son, John, and several members
of his council in Ashfield.

100 YEARS OF WHAT?
Wouldn't it be fun if we could conjure up from their
neglected graves Sir John A. and the other Fathers of Confederation,
and take them on a tour of the nation they tied together 100 years
ago, with string and sealing -wax?
Would they think they had builded well? Would they
swell with pride over the nation that has emerged? Would they
look with awe on what has been accomplished? Or would they cry,
as with one voice, "Lemme outa here! What have you done to
our glorious Dominion?" -
The physical changes in those 10 tiny decades, a fleabite
in the human span, would surely impress them, The vast towers
of steel and concrete in our cities; the ribbons of road and rail
that span the continent, the St. Lawrence Seaway.
And surely they would be thrilled by the vast technological
leap made since they stood together for that stiff portrait in
Charlottetown. They would be dazzled by the simple facts of
electric light and power, flight by jetliner, radio, television, the
telephone, the automobile, oil -heating, air-conditioning, and a thous-
and other things we take for granted.
But how would they feel about the country they created
after the fancy wrapping came off the toys? After they'd seen
the Toronto City Hall, and flown across the country in a few
hours, and plunged into the bowels of a modern 'mine, and gone
up in a chair -lift at Jasper, and faced annihilation in a Montreal
cab, and groped for their drink in a gloomy cocktail lounge?
Behind the glattering playthings, would they really find
much change in the country? Not at this time of year, anyway.
It would be still a shambling geographical monster, buried in white,
tail turned to the north wind. Only a sprinkling of lights, a few
curls of smoke, and a few ants crawling about would suggest c.
was not straight out of the ice ages.
And if Sir John A, and his fellows lifted that familiar
blanket of white and peered under it, would they be surprised and
delighted by what they saw? Would they perceive a mature, . virile,
independent people proudly proving that the twentietlf century
belongs to Canada?
One look would reveal a material prosperity and comfort
beyond their dreams. But it would show that a lot of other things
they were familiar with had not changed or improved in 100 yeai ,
Fear of the U.S., corruption in high places, French and English
Canadians wrangling, dirty fighting at Ottawa, the taxpayers being
bribed with their own money, the rich getting richer and the poor
getting children: a familiar world to The Fathers.
But the sorrow ;might change to horror when they lookea
beyond the familiar things and saw that the healthy -looking body
was riddled with disease, The pollution of air and water would'
make thcm furious. The soaring rate of divorce, drug addiction,
homosexualism, alcoholism would appall them. The number of
dead on the highways each year would sicken them. The power
of huge monopolies would frighten them. And the apathy of Mt-
average,
heaverage, well-fed Canadian would disgust them.
No, we'd have to divert their attention quickly, and turn
it to other things that would dazzle then, Perhaps they'd be
impressed by some of our great cultural traditions, developed
since their time, Like the Grey Cup Game, when the punks and
the drunks take over, Or Hockey Night in Canada, one of our
great national customs, when this entire, sprawling nation is linked
together into a warm, friendly group of idiots, rising as one man
to fetch another beer when the commercial comes on.
Maybe they'd enjoy a tour of one of our new atomic en-
ergy plants? But I wonder what they'd think of the pictures or
Iliroshima?
We could tell them what we did in the two great wars.
But one look at the tax bill for defense would give them apoplexy.
And so it would go. Personally, I think that after the
Initial novelty wore off, Sir John A. and The Fathers, more in
sorrow than in anger, would return to where they came from, with-
out ever taking a look hack,

The first big sporting event
during the Centennial year occur-
red in Kitchener last week. It
was an exhibition hockey game
between Russia and Canada. The
Russian team has been travelling
across the Dominion, and many
hockey fans have had the oppor•'
(unity of seeing this sport, Many
had the opportunity of seeing the
game played in Winnipeg via
television two weeks ago.
The Kitchener Auditorium was
cotnpletey sold out long before
the game on January 12th.
It was impossible for hockey
fans in Myth to buy tickets for
the game. Id's impossible for the
Kitchener Auditorium to seat all
hockey enthusiasts from the twin
cities, let alone central and Wes-
tern Ontario,
So, the question comes up:
Why didn't CKCO-TV in Kit-
chener televise this important
game I'or the thousands who could
not get into. the Kitchener Audi-
torium? The station claims they
tried, but were prevented;
\Vhy didn't the Kitchener Au-
ditorium allow this to be telecast?
What was wrong with the C.A.
H.A.?
The people had a right to see
this game, They were deprived
of this right,
Why and by whom?
Would CKCO=1'V care to an-
swer this question?
Would the Kitchener Auditor•
tum like to answer?
And how about a reply from
the C.A.H.A,?
Write your answers. They'll be
printed. The hockey fans in
Blyth would like to know,

Someone was apparently badly
in need of a cirgarette last Thurs•
day night. The Blyth 'arena ryas
broken into and all that has been

chose the one carton. One thing
is known for sure. Whoever it
was is an Export•A fan.

Seek Uses For Centralia Base
Ontario Development Corpora-
tion has launched a feasibility
study to see if Centralia Air
Force Rase near Exeter can be
used as an industrial park.
Treasury Minister Charles Mac -
Naughton and..Economics and De-
velopment Minister Stanley J.
"Randall said in a joint statement"
that the ODC study will also con-
sider other uses for the 700 -acre
property.
The base is being rapidly de-
activated and all military person-
nel will he withdrawn by Septem-
ber 1967. The property was re-
cently turned over to the Crown
Assets Disposal Corporation in
Ottawa.
Centralia Air Force Base has
more than 50 buildings and work-
shops, and 362 houses. It was
formerly used as a flying school
for training air force pilots.
When it was in full operation
there were about 2,500 military
personnel and some 300 civilian
employees on the base.
Mr. MacNaughton said arrange-
ments with the federal govern-
ment allow a three to four-month
period for the detailed feasibility
study, 'Phe Treasury Board . has
approved an expenditure of $25,-
000 for this purpose.
Mr. MacNaughton said as soon
as the Ontario government be.

activated, consideration was giv

lion.
The feasibility study will show
if there is a reasonable basis for
establishing an industrial park at
Centralia. The Ontario Depart•
ment of Agriculture and Food is
also considering using part of the
base for agricultural research
purposes,
"The stud). being undertaken
by ODC will seek to establish
whether or not existing facilities
can reasonably be adapted for
business and commercial purposes
and the effect that such a project
might have on the local economy,"
Aft. Randall said,
He said a number of enquiries
have already been received •for
the rental of hangars and other
buildings at the base.- However,
experience in both Canada and
the United States has shown con-
clusively that there are wide var•
iations to the potential uses of
such bases, depending upon leca•
tion, size, age of structures, cost
of maintenance, and a variety of
other factors, said IIr, Randall.
He said that only last week he
had sent experts from the Ontario
Development. Corporation to stu-
d). firsthand de -activated military
air bases in the United States.
They reported that many aban-
doned air fields are being used
for civilian and private flying op-
erations. At one of these bases
the number of private planes us-
ing its facilities increased to 130
from 17 over a two•year period.
An increasing use is being made
of these bases by business exe-
cutives.
The study is expected to be
completed by early spring.

Annual Meeting
Mr. William L. Craig, president
of the Auburn Public Library
Board, presided for the last annu-
al meeting last Saturday evening
in the Library room. After cal.
ling the meeting to order, the
minutes were accepted as read by
the secretary, Miss Margaret R.

the treasurer, gave the financial
statement showing a balance of
$152.03. The auditors report was
given by Bert Alarsh and Arthur
Youngblut.
The libarian, Mrs. Wilfred San.
derson, reported that there had
been 41 members paid their fees
with free reading to all children,
54 taking books out, 3049 fiction
books had been read and 291 non-
fiction with 1417 juvenile, an in•
crease of 765 books. 100 new
books had been purchased during
the year. A discussion took place
what should be placed in the Li-
brary as a Dr. Weir memorial,
and some suggestions were given
for the committee to work on. As
this library has now joined the
I-[urot County Library system, it
was felt that there now will be a
'larger choice of reading books to
the Auburn residents. George Col-
lins was hired to shovel the:snow
and to light the fire in the Lib-
rary.
After much discussion it was
decided to carry on the business
