MeetingMond,a
A meeting of: all persons int-
erested in recreation in Huron
County has been planned for
Clinton on May 15;
The object of the meeting,
according to SpenceCumm-
ings,° HuronCounty Development
Officer, is to form a sports
association for Huron County.
Mr, Cummings pointed out
in an interview last week that
many areas of the province
have associations to promote
sports within their county and
he feels it would be beneficial
• in Huron. The Development
Officer has been active repre-
senting Huron on a regional
recreation association for •
western Ontario in the last few'
months, but feels a person
nominated from a Huron assoc-
iation would provide a better
presentation of sport in Huron.
One of the accomplishments
of the regional representation
has been the hiring of Mrs,
Moira Couper of Hensall
as children's recreation co-
ordinatar•for Huron, effective
May 15. She was hired and
will be paid by the Youth and
Recreation Branch of the Min-
istry of Social and Family
Services.
The proposed Huron assoc-
iation would have two objectives.
It would assemble information
on such things as facilities avail-
able persons interested in part-
icular sports, facilities required
in the county, funds presently
required to maintain sports pro-
grams and what funds are need-
ed in Huron's towns and villag-
es to maintain present facilities.
If this information was ob-
tained, the second objective
of the association would be to
decide what should be done with
the information gathered. To
further the development of sports
within the county should be a
major objective of the organ-
ization,
Mr. Cummings said that one
of the greatest problems in form -
ng an, association has been try -
ng to convey to people lust
what the organization would be.
He said he does not see it as a
governing body of sports in the
county, nor does he see ie as a
branch of county government,
n no way, he said, will it be
a county -sponsored recreation
department. He indicated that
he himself would withdraw
to organie Huron sports
from the organization once it
was formed so that it would
have a separate identity, but
that through his office he
=would • do 'everything possible
to help it achieve its object-
: ives,
bject-
ives,
He said the association would
be a method of enabling com -
petition in many sports which
are not played beyond the local
level, For instance, he said,
such a group might be able to
'organize acounty summer
games from which vrinners
would go on to compete at
the regional leveL
Mr. Cummings said that with
the present organization in most
sports in Huron, government
funds that are available are
being gobbled up elsewhere with
no benefit coming to this area.
Such an association, he said,
would be a spokesman for area
sports and recreation and able
to get more of this money into
Huron.
He urged anyone interested in
sports either for recreation or
competition to attend the meet-
ing at 8:00 p, m. May 15 at the
Clinton Community Centre.
Cold weather could
mean more bean planting
Concern was expressed at the
Huron Federation of Agriculture.
meeting Thursday night in Clin-
ton that the late spring could
mean a larger than normal plant-
ing of beans in Huron this year.
Phil Durand, commenting on
the bean situation said he was
wcrried that the cold wet spring
might hinder grain planting and
encourage farmers to sow beans
instead, Such heavy planting at
the last minute could mean a
bad year for bean growers,, he
stated,
He noted that last year the
price of beans had been good be-
cause there was a short crop in
the United States and all beans
could be sold at a good price.
Overplanting in Ontario, plus
.a good crop in the United States,
could mean low prices next fall,
Mr. Durand, a Zurich area bean
grower -warned,
Mr; Durand also reported on
the recent trip to Europe he
made as part of a trade mission
. from the bean board,
"In Europe, " he said, "we
found that if the price is too
high these countries shop around
for better price. " He said that
Ethiopia produces varieties of
beans quite similar to Ontario
although not of as good qual-
ity, These sell for $100 per ton
less. However, he said, the
mission made good contacts in
Europe and the Europeans do
appreciate the quality of Ont-
ario beans.
Mr. Durand urged greater use
of the Ontario Food Council
to promote Ontario -produced
foods. In Europe he said, there
are imparters Iooking for every
commodity produced in Ont-
ario but they do not know we
have these products are fol sale.
Bob Henry of Blyth reported
to the meeting on the problems
involved in registering for the
government's two -price system
on Ontario wheat. There is pre-
sently $8 million in the kitty
to be split up among Ontario
wheat farmers, he said, and
until a week ago the govern-
ment didn't have a clue how
to go about it.
He noted that farmers apply-
ing must show the amount of
wheat they produced for the
last five crop years (from
July one year to July the next)
and must send in receipts on
rented land or tax bills or
assessment slips from land
owned by the farmer. He
recommended that farmers
not having complete records
should get in touch with the
Wheat Producers board in
Chatham to see how many
bushels were produced.
These figures have also
been sent in by the Wheat
Board and the government
will check to see if the two
figures agree before accept-
ing an application, Mr.
Henry said,

McKillop taxes
gaup,
The 1972 tax rate, ttruck Mon-
day by McKillop Township coun-
cil, will mean a big increase in
the tax bills for residents,
The public school residential
rate was set at %5. 4 milts, up
from 49.1 mills last year, The
commercial rate is 81.6 mills,
compared to 52.9 mills in 1971.
The separate school residential
rate is 84, 2 mills (73.0 mills
last year) and separate school
commercial rate is 91, 5 mills
(79.5 mills in 1971).
The township rate has been set
at residential 20.9 mills (20.7
last year) and commercial 23.6
mills (23, 5 mills last year). The
county rate this year is 2L 8 :
mills, up from 19, 2 last year.
Clerk -treasurer Mrs. Kenneth
McClure said that a public
school supporter with a resident-
ial assessment of $5, 300 will
pay $398.56 in taxes this year.
Last year taxes were $260, 23.
For a separate school supporter
with the same assessment the
taxes this year will be $446. 26,
compared to $386. 90,
Mrs, McClure explained that
the increase in taxes for public
school supporters this year over
last, resulted when last year
there was a decrease in the
secondary rate and the element-
ary public school rate was elim-
inated in 1971 when the 1968 sur-
plus of money was turned over
to the Huron County Board of
Education by the former
McKillop Township area schooY
boards.
Total township assessment is
$2, 892, 360 for McKillop which
has a population of 1, 566
residents,
The levy breakdown is: -
township expenses of
$60, 536, 39 ($59, 546.48 last
year); Huron County levy
$63,101 ($55, 795); Huron County

If it is carried out, the plan for, fixing up the area on the
south side of the river in Blyth as proposed by Councillor
Bill Riehl last week would be a great asset to Blyth.
Eeautifying the riverside would do much to improve the
impression Blyth makes on visitors approaching from the north
end of town, It is impossible to estimate the value of such
impressions on those people passing through, Some may like
the town fox its appearance and decide to stop awhile, es-
pecially if a picnic spot is provided, The appearance may
mean that some passerby may someday decide to live here
at his retirement ar If he gets a job in the area.
But such a park could ultimately become a place where
people would come to camp or park their trailer for the
weekend if it was expanded back along the river. With
parks along the lakeshare packed full every weekend, many
campers are looking far places to stay inland. We already
have some attractions in the fine leather factory outlets and
there will be another one in the area when the conservation
area opens up in Hullett township. The tourist dollar,
although it may never become a major factor, could help
spur our economy.
And there is the very important advantage of giving res-
idents of the village some place nice to go on a picnic
or just go fora walk, someplace to relax and enjoy nature.
There may be problems in acquiring the land, which it
is now understood is in private hands, but let's hope they
are not too great as to discourage the establishment of a
park right away.
Jet may be neefll
All is not well at Queen's Park these days,
Premier William Davis and his colleagues are laboring under
a rash of criticism ranging from plans to purchase a two mill-
ion dollar jet plane to indications that funds are being
squandered by various departments.
On top of that, there is the all -revealing inquiry into the
Workmen's Compensation Board, Some of the statistics com-
ing from that have heads reeling,
Ironically, all these things have surfaced at a time when the
Provincial Government is supposedly. embarked on an austerity
program. '
To date, the people who pay the bills have accepted the
challenge of digging a little deeper to pay extra taxes and
costs to help the provincial cowers, but that willingness will
quickly wane if many of the accusations coming out of Toron-
to are proven true,
Premier Davis may well have justification for wanting a
speedy jet plane. It may be the only way he can escape the
wrath of Ontario taxpayers.

WHAT'S NEW AT HURONVIEW
A good attendance of residents
along with six volunteers from
Goderich, at Monday's program
of old tyme music, dancing,
and sing -song, made the after-
noon quite worthwhile. Music
for the occasion was provided •
by Mary Taylor, Normen Speir,
and Jeny Collins, accompanied
by Alice Roorda. By the way,
we could use some help with the
music on Monday afternoons.
The Bluewater unit of C. N.I.
B. held their May get-together
in the auditorium at Huronview
on Tuesday evening. The resid-
ents were invited to attend the
program which included slides
of Afr ica shown by Dr. Lamb-
ert of Goderich, Dr. Lambert,
his wife and family spent part
of his internship at the United
Church hospital in Africa and
his pictures and commentary
were greatly appreciated by
the audience. Douglas Crich
of Clinton added to the enjoy-
ment of the evening with sev-
eral piano selections. Chairman
for the evening, Stewart Henry,
Wingham, called on Rev, Dr.
Mowatt, one of the Clinton
representatives of C. N.I. B. ,
who introduced Dr. Lambert,
Mrs. David Elliott, formerly
of Goderich, thanked those
taking part in the program on
behalf of the residents. Follow-
ing the business meeting, lunch
was served to the members and
their escorts by Mrs. Webster
of Exeter.
The Huronview Women's
Auxiliary held a very success-
ful Blossom Tea and Sale on
Wednesday afternoon. Two
hundred ladies attended the
event which was officially
opened by Rev. Lewis of Clin-
ton.
Father Kelly held a commun-
ion service in the chapel on
Friday morning.

there's a shower for her, and
the next day a dental ap-

an appointment in the city
about a job, and another
dental appointment, and a
hair -dresser's appointment.
And she hasn't even bought
her wedding dress yet.
She's not at all worried
about her "going -away"
outfit, She assured her
mother, "Don't worry,
Mom; I'll be going away in
my jeans,"
Well, I'm sorry I can't in-

this trip out. To be perfectly
truthful, that's the only cause
for which I've ever put myself
out to any great extent. I
believe cancer can be beaten
and I'm willing to work at
making that dream come true.
I bought a bicycle of my own
for this year's event. I think
every household should have a
bicycle. At least that was the
argument I used when I set
about to convince my family
I should purchase a bike,
My children agreed - provid-
ing the bicycle I bought was
one of those low -slung, long -
seated, high-handlebarred
affairs.
I balked. Imagine me
making an unnecessary number
of pump strokes on such a tiny
little bike when I could make a
few long strokes on a standard-
type bicycle and get just as far.
Besides that, the fancy bike
costs a much prettier penny
than the standard bike. As far
as I was concerned, there was
no decision to make.
My husband thought it was a
silly idea to buy a bicycle un-
less it was a man's cycle in a
man's style painted a manly
color. I balked again. The
idea was mine, It was only
fair that I should select the
sex and color as well for this
"family" bicycle,
As it has turned out, the
bicycle isn't any more a
family bicycle than you would
imagine, My children or niy
husbandwon't be caught dead
riding it " so it is all
ti
mine fcr as long as 1 want to
keep it.
There's only one hitch now
before I take off on the bike -a-
thon. I've got to get in shape.
I've really got to get out on
that bike fcr a couple of swings
around the block before I attem-
pt that ten -mile hike, `'
Ten miles doesn't sound like
much mileage on a bicycle. For
an aging lady like I am, who
doesn't do much more than
wash dishes and punch a type-
writer, it seems like the
endurance course in the long-
distance run at the Olympics.
Last year I went the full
course easily. That was because
I was a year younger and more
foolish. This year I have the
memories from last year's
sore sit -me -down to hold me
back. I'm not the inexperienced
little nitwit who took off with
such confidence last year. I
know the ropes this year and I'm
not looking forward to that week
of stand-up typing and telephone
answering which will follow the
bike-a-thon.
I have only one question to ask
of the wonderful folks who organ-
ize these fund-raising marathons
or campaigns of any
kind.
Why do they have to be with-
in eight weeks of each other in
the spring? Why can't they be
spread out through the year?

days. I sat down to watch a

y-4.1IRLEY:J-KELLER,'
There are:times'when owning
propelty Can-boa-real'pain 'in
.the neck, and Huron County
Cou,nciLis'experlencing that
strange phenomenon right now,
• It has the former Huron County.
Jail in Goderich listed among -
its assets - and it may be a -
while before council is agreed •
upon the best way to dispose of
the -premises.
At last Thursday's meeting
of Huron County Council, the
property committee chaired •
by Kenneth F. McMichael of f -
Turnberry township brought in
a recommendation that the
jail be converted into a museum
of -penology - in other words, a
collection of authentic artifacts
from history which would tell
the story of Ontario's' penal in-
stitutions from the early 19th
century to.present day -.and
onward- in time ad infinitum.
The recommendation was bol-
stered by the appearance at
council of A, S, Nuttall, Exec-
utive Assistant to the Deputy
Minister of Correctional Services
for Ontario and V. N. Styrmo,
Senior Museums Adviser, Ont-
ario Department of Public Re-
cords and Archives, and Mrs,
Pauline Hall, Associate Advis-
er.
Speaking to. council, Nuttall
said his department could not
offer money - only co-operation
in the event a museum of penol-
ogy was established in Huron.
He said he could promise an out-
standing collection of genuine- -
penal "restraints" such as old
and modern handcuffs, irons,
lashes and an authentic gall-
ows complete with hangman's
trap,
He pledged the department's
continuing support of this vent-
ure since it would be the only
one -of its size, •scope .and auth-
enticity in the province. In, -
fact, Nuttall -said Huron's
museum of penology would - -
be 'designated the province's
"official -jail museum", -
Nuttall further stated that cer-
tain prisoners from Ontario's
jails_could be -brought to Goder-
ich to restore the jail to its or-
iginal state. For instance, the
modern-day pale green paint
would be covered in "drab grey",
An interesting feature of the
• museum, Nuttall concluded,
would be to include the arts
and crafts made by prisoners in
the province's present jails and
thereby rounding out the full
story of penal punishment in
Ontario.
The second speaker to add-
ress council on the project was'
V. N. Styrmo. He pulled no
punches, telling the members
-that.while the former Huron
County Jail -was an ideal site
at which to contain a museum -
on the theme of penology, it
would be an expensive under-
taking. -
"When you start a museum, it
has no foreseeable end," Styrmo
advised the members of council,
who perhaps understood better
than many what he meantbe-
cause they have seen the bills
for Huron County's Pioneer
Museum of Ncrth Street in
Goderich. -
Styrmo said that while
"preserving an imposing struct-
ure with historical significance"
was a noble ambition, alterat-
ions would be necessary to make
it serviceable as a public build-
ing and operational costs would
be considerable, :
"The cost could be phenominal,
Styrmo told council, .."You have
- a 100 -year -head -start on deterior-
ation. But with a five-year plan
for the development of the muse-
um, you would have'a pretty -
fantastic museum which would - •
leave visitors to Huron County
saying that if you are. ever up
that way to, stop off to see the -
Huron County Jail, Goderich
museum of penology."
A maximum grant of $1,000
would be available to the
museum, each year, Styrmo
said.
Museums don't make a lot
of money, either, Styrmo re-
minded council. He said that
116 out of 120 museums in Ont-
ario record a loss each year.
The average income for muse-
ums it only about 40 to 60
percentof the gross cost of
operation. The only profitable
museums in Ontario are at
Niagara Falls - and are privat-
ely owned.
"But you would keep visitors
to Huron County longer, they
would spend more money in
the community,it would be
an educational facility and,
just maybe, it would deter
some potential law breakers of
the future," Styrmo concluded.
Reeve Allan Campbell of
McKillop, last year's chairman
of the property committee,
warned council he planned to
speak plainly,
"If we keep the jail as a muse-
um, the rope is around our neck
and all they have to do is pull
the trap," argued Campbell.
He stated that Huron County's
Pioneer Museum has a,
$36,000 annual budget and a
$1, 000 grant plus an intake of
about $12,000 to offset the costs.
"That's about $23,000 for the
people of Huron to make up
each year," insisted Campbell.
"Can the people afford to keep
another museum? Good Lord,
how much more can we stand?"
Wingham Reeve Jack Alexander
suggested that the building be
sold to the Town of Goderich
for $1.00.
"Let them provide us with
some parking, "Alexander
recommended, obviously re-
ferring to the parking bind in
which the county finds itself
at the nearby Children's Aid
offices and the assessment
offices,
"IPm disappointed in the
attitude of this council, "said
Reeve Harold Lobb of Clinton.
"I thought this county was
supposed to be a tourist area.
If it is going to be a tourist
area, you have to have some-
thing for the people to see,
If we don't want it that way,
we'd be better to make her
into an industrial complex."
"Mr, Campbell wants to
speak plainly," challenged
Anson McKinley, deputy -
reeve of Stanley Township."
I'd like to know how much
Mr. Campbell would want
for the jail if we sold it. 11
"I'd like to ask Mr. McKinley
a question," retaliated Camp-
bell. "How many more museums
can the county stand?"
"I'd have to know what the one
we have is worth to the county
of Huron before I would answer
that question," said McKinley.
Harold Robinson, the reeve
of Howick, was not in favor
of the plan to make the jail into
a museum, He talked about the
•new health and welfare services
the county now has, and added
that in his opinion the county
should spend money on "prev-
entative medicine rather than
on dead stone".
The Goderich jail has two
distinct claims to fame -
although both may be considered
dubious honors by many, many
folk. The Huron County Jail was
the scene of the very last public
hanging in Ontario and is also
the place where the now famous
Steven Truscott, then 14 years
of age, spent eight months in
a cell waiting for the death
sentence to be carried out.

the history of the jail was
brought forth by county clerk -
treasurer John Berry. He said
record show that the first
meeting of Huron County
Council was held on the third
floor of the jail.
"But they retired to the hotel
uptown for the next meeting,"
reported Berry. "The recacds
do not indicate why."
I The matter of the establish-
' ment of a Huron C ounty Muse-
, um of Penology wa's referred
back to committee for further
study, especially in the area of
proposed costs for the project.
The next meeting of Huron
:County Council is May 26, It
is likely the whole matter will
'be re -opened for discussion at
that time.

FROM THE MMSTER'S STUDY
by John G. Roberts, Belgrave, Ontario.
'THE GOSPEL OF GOOD WORKS "
There is nothing wrong with good works. There is nothing
wrong with righteousness. Jesus would prefer a righteous man to
an unrighteous man, A man can thank God for his righteousness.
Jesus tells the story of such a man in St. Luke's gospel, in
chapter 18, verses 9-14. Of the two men who go to the Temple
to pray, one was indeed a righteous man. Nor does Jesus despise
his righteousness, He demanded of all who would hear him that
they should perform good works. At the same time there can be
no 'secret' interpretation on the ground that Jesus' idea of
righteousness was different. When a rich young ruler asked a
question about eternal life, Jesus answered him in terms of the
commandments (verses 18-20). His idea of righteousness was
for the most part the generally accepted one.
The Church can be.commended that it too present an image
of righteousness to the. world. Its official pronnouncements are,
relevant; its leaders try to be straightforward and honest men
and women; most of its members are good, concerned and in-
volved people.
What, then, is wrong? Sometimes the Church seems to be
saying come and join us in our involvement, in our relevance,
in our activity. And that is what is wrong. That is what was
wrong with the Pharisee in the story. His righteousness was
genuine enough. The trouble was he had cometo trust his own
righteousness instead of God. Sometimes the Church seems to
be celebrating and trusting its own relevance.
There must be so many people in the world like the other man
in the story for whom the 'message' they receive is Just not good
news. The picture they get is of a Church ardently discussing
the,relevance of its action, celebrating its successes and be-
moaning its failures.
What they probably see is a Church concerned with its financ-
es, even if they are for a good cause, its membership, its
ministry, its organisation, its divisions. This can never be
good news to those who despair of man ever solving his own
problems however good his intentions or sincere his motives.
It can never be good news to those for whom the very standards
of righteousness and goodness and relevance - which most
church people are capable of - are themselves the biggest
barrier to their own involvement, Like the tax -gatherer they
would have to enter a circle in which, at first at any rate,
they would feel awkward and out of place. They would have
to adopt a life style to which they were not accustomed. They
would feel it necessary to make some sort of restitution, per-
haps in extraordinary devotion, in order to 'catch up'. Only
the strong could do such a thing. They are not strong, so they
tell themselves and everyone else they are as good as church
people anyway.
It is good news when the message they receive, the image the
Church presents is that there is One to whom those in despair
can turn, They would find something in common with a Church
that with joy and warmth celebrates its Saviour.

in the story for whom the 'message' they receive is just not good
news. The picture they get is of a Church ardently discussing
the,relevance of its action, celebrating its successes and be-
moaning its failures.
What they probably see is a Church concerned with it financ-
es, even if they are for a good cause, its membership, its
ministry, its organisation, its divisions. This can never be
good news to those who despair of man ever solving his own
problems however good his intentions or sincere his motives.
It can never be good news to those for whom the very standards
of righteousness and goodness and relevance - which most
church people are capable of - are themselves the biggest •
barrier to their own involvement. Like the tax -gatherer they
would have to enter a circle in which, at first at any rate,
they would feel awkward and out of place. They would have
to adopt a life style to which they were not accustomed. They
would feel it necessary to make some sort of restitution, per-
haps in extraordinary devotion, in order to 'catch up'. Only
the strong could do such a thing. They are not strong, so they
tell themselves and everyone else they are as good as church
people anyway.
It is good news when the message they receive, the image the
Church presents is that there is One to whom those in despair
can turn. They would find something in common with a Church
that with joy and warmth celebrates it Saviour.

can't afford too often. The door-
bell rang. It was the Red Shield
canvasser.
The lady stated her business
forthwith.; I have sympathy for
the Salvation Army. Canvass-
ing is not easy or pleasant. I
made my donation willingly
and went back to my movie.
A few minutes later a little
boy came to the door, He
was selling tickets for a
school trip in June for his
class. A tousel-haired kid
with pleading eyes? Who can
resist? 1 bought my ticket and
sat down again with my movie.
Not long afterward, I heard
the doorbell, I refused to answer
it, My son came in. "Canvass
time again, mom," he chirped.
It was the Cancer Fund, No
argument this time either..I
gave my donation.
This week, I'm pounding the
beat, asking for sponsors for a
bike-a-thon for cancer,
yet. People are generous. It
is difficult not to be. But surely
we can be better organized about
our timing.

YOUNG CYCLISTS
Drivers! When you see a child
riding a bike_on the street
Don't blow your horn, un-
less it's absolutely necessary. A
sudden blast of a car horn can
cause a young cyclist to panic,
and he or she may swerve right
into your car's path. Remember
when kids
are around on bikes
Slow down and don't scare them
with your horn. Sound it only
when necessary
and then make it a couple of
warning Beeps not a blast!

Homegrown Berries'
Raspberries and strawberries
are' two of the most popular .
fruits grown in Ontario by
both the home gardener and
the commercial operator says
John Hughes, horticultural
specialist, Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food,
Strawberries are planted
around the middle of May
and develop over the summer,
fruiting in the second year, It
• is important to take off the
blossoms on first-year plants,
. to allow the runners to develop
• fully, This will encourage a
full row of plants.. If the plants
`will be fruiting this year, a...
Thiodon spray is necessary to
control plant bugs at blossom
time, No fertilizer is necessary
in the fruiting year as this en-
courages soft fruit and rot.
,For raspberries, planting may
take place in either spring or
fall. It takes about two years
for the canes to produce fruit
in any amount, The canes'must
be supported with wires or string
down the sides of the rows to
prevent drooping.
For both raspberries and straw-
berries be sure to buy certified
plants, This will help reduce
the chances of disease in your
plantings, says Mr, .Hughes,

i�pei' from Oueeii's Parts
by HURRAY GAUNT, M. P. P,
(Huron -Bruce)
This week four Members of
Parliament ffom Western Ontar-
io, including myself, met with
several faculty and Board of
Governors members from the
University;of Western to discuss
the raise in graduate student
fees announced by the Govern-
ment recently.
The point was made that grad-
uate students in Ontario will'
now pay the highest fees of any-
where in Canada, For example
the University of Alberta charg-
es a graduate student $500 per
annum, the University of Man-
itoba $375 per annum, McGill
$582, University of Saskatchew-
an $425, Dalhousie $725, Laval
$560, but Westernywill have to
charge $585 for two terms or
$877 per year.
This, 'according to the Univ-
ersity people will have the
following results.
(1) will drive graduate students
to other jurisdictions,
(2) will encotuage students to
work in the summer, thus burd-
ening an already tight labour
market by discouraging the
three term system.
(3) will depress graduate
schools, thus worsening the
Canadian -U. S. teaching staff
ratio,
In other. words it will encour-
age more teachers and profess-
ors from the U. S. because Can-
adian and particularly Ontario
Universities will not be able to
find the qualified people here,
The saving to the Government
by raising these fees is $2.4
million,
The Universities feel they can
save the same amount of money
in other areas, but wish a return
to the, old fee structures for grad-
uate students.
Government Members rejected
Opposition demands that inde-
pendent private auditors be -
hired by the Legislature Public
Accounts Committee to invest-
igate invoicing irregularities
by various Government Depart-
ments.
The Committee finally agreed
that a three man team be set up
to examine -the spending in-
voices and rejection slips
issued by the Auditor's Office,
The three men are a11 memb-
ers of _the Auditor's staff.
The Committee studying the
operation of the Workmen's
Compensation Board was told
this week that preferential
treatment in awarding advertis-
ing contracts was given to
Foster Advertising Limited,
Mr. ). S. Tannian, a former
public relations director with
Workmen's Compensation Board
claimed that he knew ofa
score of occasions when tap •
e
recorders were used
at th
e
Board either to record inter-
views or telephone calls.
Mr. Tannian was told that
it was the Chairman's wish that
Foster Advertising should get
50% of the work. However, Mr,
Tannian said he found that
Foster's work wasunacceptable,
but the Chairman still felt that
the Company should get some
wank. It was then decided to
allow Foster Advertising to be
the Company of record, which
means that the Company was
responsible for placing all
advertising with other compan-
ies. It didn't do any of the ad-
vertising itself.
The Provincial Government
introduced legislation this
week allowing the Province's
53, 000 Civil Servants, now
represented by the Civil
Service Association of Ontario ,
to choose whichever bargain-
ing agent they wish.
The Legislation also provides
for the first time that Ontario
Civil Servants may not strike
and any dispute would have
to be settled by binding
arbitration.
Applesauce for
snacks
Ontario food processors make
about 121 million pounds of
apples into applesauce each
year,say food specialists at
the ntario Food Council,
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food, Several varieties of
apples are used, blended in
different amounts by each
processor to obtain the flavor
and texture characteristic of
that brand. Flavor differences
between brands result when
three or four varieties are com-
bined in 'different amounts in
each sauce.
Applesauce, regardless of
brand, has a delicate flavor
that is welcome from breakfast
to midnight snacks, For break-
fast, serve applesauce as a
chilled fruit dish, or hot and
spiced with cinnamon and nut-
meg as a sauce for French
toast or pancakes, Use it as a
basting sauce for perk roast
and chops, as a glaze for ham,
or as the liquid in a stuffing
for chicken or pork chops.
For a quick frosting or a
filling for cakes,.and jelly
rolls, fold applesauce and
cinnamon into whipped cream-
-- great with a moist spice cake,
an apple crisp or cobbler, For
a diet dessert, just add spices
and stir. One 32 ounce serving
of unsweetened applesauce con-
tains only 41 calories, sweeten-
ed applesauce only 91 calories -
-- still a low calorie fresh '
dessert.

MAYFLY
Often called fishfly, this insect occurs in millions
in early summer around marshy areas and lake
shores. On calm evenings . great swarms appear
over the water close to shore, here they perform
their mating flights. As an aftermath they are
washed ashore in windrows. Eggs are deposited
in the quiet waters of shallow marshy bays and
edges. The flightless nymph stage (A) is spent
under water, the insect coming to the surface and
climbing onto marsh vegetation prior to emerging
as a full -winged adult. Mayflies are an important
food for fish and are also eaten by waterfowl
82 . '72 and other waterbirds.

sack into the past through The Standard's old files
5 years ago
May 17, 1967.
The news reached Blyth about
noon hour Monday that Jack
Creighton, 64 year old resident
of our community had been
killed during the morning hours:
Jack was an employee of Huron
County and was working' at a
road construction site near The
Nile, Heapparently came in
contact with a road grader which
was working on the construction
job. He was rushed to hospital
in Goderich and was pronounced
dead on arrival.
Mr. Donald Coghlin, an em-
ployee of the Canadian Imper-
ial Bank of Commerce at Blyth
since 1965 has received a move
to Georgetown.
The members of the Blyth
Lions Club and their wives -
close to 90 in all, attended
the annual ladies night of the
club in the Memorial Hall
last Thursday evening, High-
light of the evening was the
unveiling of a past president's
plaque. Names of every pres-
ident of the Blyth Chib since
its beginning are inscribed on
the plaque.
10 years ago
May 9, 1962,
The unsightly boards ,which
have covered the windows,and
doors of the local hotel for
nearly the past two years have -
been taken off and the,building
is in the process of being trans-
formed into a modernized rest-
aurant, restaurant and hotel
accommodations. The remodel-
ling and renovation work is
being carried out by Mr.-- Henry
Daly, who recently purchased
the property from Mr. Grover
Clare, Sr, , now owner and
operator of the Holiday Motel
of Gananoque,
After such a sunny March, we -
have -had very much sun again
in April, in fact we have had
one of the sunniest April's on
record, (said Louis Stadelman,
local weather chronicler)
Further expansion of Sparlings
Hardware took place on Mon-
day of this week when the pur-
chase of the Wallace Dry Good

Behind the Scenes
by Keith Roulston
When you set out to put on
an evening of music and use
the music of Lionel Bart's
'Oliver', Rogers and Hamm-
erstein's "Carousel'', "South
Pacific" and "Annie Get Your
Gun" and Gilbert and Sullivan's
"H. M.S. Pinafore" and "The
Mikado" you can hardly fail
if performers with any talent
at all are used, to have a hit.
Goderich Little Theatre last
week combined the music of
all those shows and more in
their "What's Your Fancy?"
and in addition paraded across
the tiny stage of their McKay
Hall home in Goderich some
of the most talented perform-
ers in Huron County. The
result was one of the best
evenings of musical entertain-
ment .to be had in this part
of the country for a long
time.
Marjorie Hayes Dunlop
directed an all-star cast from
Goderich, Clinton and Blyth
who proved their worth over
and over from the time they
opened the show with the
whole cast on stage in "Who
will Buy" from "Oliver" until
the last strains of the finale
"Down on MacConnachy Square"
died out,
The numbers were chosen
to provide something for every-
one from operettas by Gilbert
and Sullivan to hits like South
Pacific to little-known shows
such as "The F antasticks" .
Nearly every member of the
30 -member cast had an opp-
ortunity to display his or her
singing voice. One of the most
delightful surprises of the even-
ing was the beautiful singing
voice of Susan Street of Blyth
in the opening scene and
again in her number from
"The Boyfriend".
Keith and Jane Stokes pro-
vided some of the most
humoruap moments of the
night in their scenes from
"The Mikado". Dr. Richard
lent his voice to the fine
chorus which backed the
featured performers.
McKay Hall provided an
intimate setting for the show
although it must have .taken
a great deal of planning to
move the large cast around
the small stage without having
any embarassing collisions,
If there was a sour note to
the production it was the fact
that the director, who also
performed in several numbers,
could have used some directing.
Her over -acting in some num-
bers, notably the one from
"The Boyfriend", was atrocious.
When she stuck to singing,
however, as in her closing duet
from "Brigadoon" called "Come
to Me, Bend to Me", she was
, wonderful. In that number,
she was assisted by Glen Lodge
of Goderich who showed a
strong voice and was not over-
powered by Mrs. Dunlop who
is a professionally trained singer.
Most people left the theatre
wanting more and many out-
of-towners openly hoped the
Goderich group would take the
show on tour to Clinton and
Blyth and other county loca-
tions. The rest of the county
deserves to see such a good
show.
