Yet it is hard -to. get too worked up over the Davis govern- ment's actions in the matter, They are only following a long line of precidents set by other provinces and by the federal government. Governments of all parties have been guilty of this type of action before, especially those with a large maj- ority. There seems no way to stop the • trend and one shakes a little when he thinks, of where this form of taxation could go. Could a government, foe instance, bring in a ridiculous tax scheme, collection it far a month then withdraw it before , it came to a vote in the house? How in such a case could the people who paid taxes ever get the money back? .Despite the danger of this sort of legislation, the opposition seems to have been putting too •much emphasis on the event. The _creaky Dayis government gives enough opportunity for ; criticisms without picking on something that all governments are equally guilty of. TheWest Will bewild When Prime Minister 'T rudeau goes West this summer for the conference with the four western provinces, he is likely to' think that country is still untamed. - The western premiers have a list of grievances as long as your arm' and are ready to clobber the prime minister with them. Despite the traditional scepticism of we in the East to western beefs, they have some points. - Take freight rates. It costs $2.46 per hundred pounds to ship structural steel from Hamilton to Calgary, but it costs only $1.64 to ship it all the way to Vancouver. -If beef • on the hoof is sent from Edmonton to Vancouver it costs $1.19. per hundredweight. Yet if it is butchered' and frozen in Ed- monton before shipping, this same beef will cost $L 39 per hundredweight. Rapeseed travels for 70.5 cents per hundred- weight from Lethbridge to Montreal, but if processed before shipment it will cost $1.22 for the same distance. • Westerners feel these rates are -designed to forever keep them as suppliers of raw products while the East and the West coast get the gravy from manufacturing their products. And. to make it hurt even more, Westerners have to pay high freight rates to get their products back once they are manu- factured into consumer goods.. There are other problems too, and it's time they were ironed out. Hopefully, the Prime Minister willsee the. stup- idty of this unjust system and will force changes to give the West a better break. - - Unnecessary worry Dr. Vivian Rakoff, a psychiatrist at the Clarke Institute in Toronto claimed on the weekend that recent interest in Adolf Hitler indicates a growing=anti-semitism in the world. Dr. Rakoff was commenting on the movie Hitler: The Last Ten Days and on other books and :records dealing ,with the Nazi dictator. "Anti-semitism is all right now, in many people's eyes, because the Jews have made it in Israel and don't appear to be vulnerable. Anti-semitism is on the rise again in the world," the psychiatrist says. . There may be a grain of truth in what he says, but on the other hand he seems to be walking around with a giant chip on his shoulder waiting for someone to knock it off. No, doubt there is still anti-semitism around. There will always be sick people who will hate Jews because they are Jews just the same as there will always be people who will hate and make slighting remarks about French Canadians, Poles and blacks. But seeing anti-semitism behind the interest in Hitler seems to be like looking for boogey men wider every bed. Hitler was an important face in shaping our way of life in the second half of the 20th century. His rise to power and the battle to defeat him have changed the pattern of history. People today, and especially the young generation that grew up after the war, are curiops.to. know more about this man who through his power, however bad, turned the course of history upside down. Perhaps there is danger in this reviv- al of interest in Hitler. Certainly anything that smacks of a. revival of Nazi policies should be regarded with alarm. But let's not get paranoid and cause panic over idle interest in an evil man in the past. 1 wWWLY rnwsPePer assoclarion KEITH W.

TO THE EDITOR: ms each year, The Proyincial Health, Insure ince Plan cost Ontario taxpay- ers $39,12.million last August and $42,08' million in Septem- ber according to figures released by Health Minister, Richard Potter, The estimated cost of OHIP during the present fiscal year is $572.5 million, as compared to"$540, 85 million last year. The increase reflects population growth_ and.increased participat- ion in the plan, Premier William Davis has announced a major.reduction in freight rates' for Northern Ontario, The reduction on selected'ra- tes will average about 18 per cent into and out of the area ser- ved by the Ontario Northland Transportation Commission. - Debate still raged this week over.the sales tax increase. The Opposition has claimed the sales tax is regressive hitting the poor the hardest and at the same time is inflationary causing prices to go up. Mr, White, Ontario's.Treasu- he editor -WANTED-TRUSTING PARENTS Do you trust your teens? If not, why not?. Could it be - that "you may have a few: shad- owy skeletons lurking in your closets? In a peaceful, respectable village such as Blyth how in the world do some of the fine, upstanding citizens arrive at - their harmful conclusions? Compared to other local areas, Blyth teens are quite_ puritani- cal. ,Our rate of murders, the- fts, vandalism and riots is al- most microscopic,. Even though this is the case, teens in Jllyth - are still criminals in some -people's eyes. Even worse, ' victimizing words which are quite destructive to our age ' group, seem to flow freely - from some people's mouths. Don't get us wrong. We are very:proud to be apart of Blyth. Organizations such as the Legion, . lions Club, Recreation Council and others are doing their very - best to help make life interesting and enjoyable. , Are parents and adults monst- ers?' No, -far-from it. We have - countless adults, in Blyth who are - really terrific. Those people, we would like to thank. - -Recently an 'organization of teens of Blyth, was formed. This was effectively named Teen Scene. This group is not con- nected with any particular church. Why not? Our group is inter -den- ominational, ' We happened to be- lieve, contrary to past viewpoints that all religions,races, and col- ours are equal. Just becaude we are not a religious organization are we poor citizens. You make the decision. On a. cold April night our group did canvassing for the Cancer Society. We netted approximately $340.00 for Can- cer research. In the recent past and the near future we will have hired out our labour to pick about forty acres of stones. How do you like that for a couple of wild times? On Saturday, May 12, 23 members of our group took upon themselves a bike ride of 40 miles, This was fun for awhile but aches and pains soon set in. The objective of these events was to raise money. Why did we need this? The answer is simple. Our group was formed on the assumption that we would do something to help Blyth and thus build thefr'respect in teens. We have the money and'believe it or not the ambition to put it to use. We aren't looking for a pat on the back. We realize we aren't angels but look at the facts. Are we all that bad? For those who are trying to destroy the com- munity's faith in our group, we would like to express our deep- est sympathy. You have a long hard road ahead. We have one last request to make to our parents. We trust you so please trust us! THE CONCERNED TEENS of TEEN SCENE rer has said that the combina- tion of property tax reductions and sales tax credits add up to tax cuts which far exceed the sales tax increases for low in- come families, • ' The debate is expected to wind up on Friday ,of this week, 11 days after the tax became applicable. - The ceiling on subsidies for capital construction of water and sewage works was recently raised from 50 per cent -to 75 per cent in order to make "such projects available to smaller municipalities. - - According to Ontario's Envi- ronment Minister James Auld this -change involves, based on present needs alone, 50 sewage , works and 29 water works prog- rammes, Oyer the next, 5 years the 'Government expects to spend oyer $95 million on subsidies - $27 million more than would . have been spent under the SO per cent grant structure.

Miss Judith McDowell, sister } of the bride, was her sister's maid of honor. She was gowned in a floor -length dress .of green organza with white lace trim accenting a softly scooped neck- ' line and puffed sleeves. She carried an arrangement of yellow and white shasta daisies. The bridesmaids were, Miss Carol sister of the bride, Miss Linda Walden, Blyth, and Miss Marie Gear of Waterloo, ! cousins of the bride.

On Sunday afternoon the Junior and Intermediate Choirs went.to the Wingham television station for the taping of a progr- am to be aired this Sunday over CKNX-TV on "Singtime" at 5:30p,m; An announcement was made of the Dedication to Mission Service t o be held this Sunday, May 20, The Mid -Week Youth Groups will make their. annual from the Minister's Slufly by JOHN G. ROBERTS, BELGRAVE "I AM THE TRUE VINE" "I AM THE VINE, YOU ARE THE BRANCHES" By this figure of speech, Christ expresses the true depth and intimacy of the personal relationship to Him that is the basis of our faith. The inward, spiritual lifeblood that flows in the faithful is the sap that runs to every part of the tree. To express and explain this connexion words like creed, ethical code, instit- ution are inappropriate. Words like friendship, brotherhood, fatherhood, childhood, must be used. Though each of these used separately is inadequate, together,with others they point in the right direction. • It is the strength of this relationship that governs our discip- leship, inspires our worship, and decides our fate. It is the disciple's awareness of this relationship that makes him posi- tively active in love and concern, awakens his conscience, and guides all his endeavours. Nothing can take its place, not church, not bible, not creed. Cut the branch off the tree and it is dead, There -is a reciprocal side to all this. So much of personal life seems to be governed by what one might call 'social im- peratives and directives', 'Can anything be proved against me?' 'Will they find out?' 'What is their attitude to me, how do they treat me?' How paltry and futile such arguments are. The problem is much more serious than a broken code or a lowering of standards or conforming to general standards of behaviour.... 'I am no worse than anybody else.' What are you doing to him who knows you even better than you know yourself? Ripley to build sports complex There has been talk in Blyth in the. past _year. of .. building an indoor swimming pool, While some feel this would be too large a project for a village the size of Blyth, supporters can take heart from the example set by the village of Ripley. The Bruce county village of 400-500 persons has embarked on a campaign to build a $250- 390,000 recreation complex to comprise a new arena, comm- unity centre and possible an indoor swimming pool. The complex, when c ohi pleted, will give the hamlet - one of the finest recreation facilities in western Ontario. The huge project will be fin- anced through provincial and federal government grants, funding by local municipalities and through local projects and through a huge lottery operated on a province -wide basis. The Ripley and Huron town- ship recreation committees and' the Ripley aril District Lions; Club are leaders in the project. SUNDAY, MAY 20" Rev. Berkley J.

The month 'of .May down through the years has been identified with mothers. It is the month when families remember their mothers with special kindnesses because of the very special people they are, It is thus perhaps provid- ential and fitting that Flora Ann K,' Brigham -Mills Clysdale shou- ld have been laid in her final resting -place in the Blyth Ceme- tery on May 5, five months after her sudden death on December 5, Mrs. Cl dale photo taken in Blyth in early 19001s She was the last beloved member of the pioneer family which cl- eared the land and took up resi- dence esidence on lot 5 on the 14th con- cession of Hullett township in 1886. The Rev. C. L. Wittich, minister of the Blyth United Church, and the Rev, F. H. Carson, rector of the Blyth An- glican -Church, were in attend- ance for prayers. ' Flora Ann was born on Dece- mber 29, 1878, the fifth child of Sarah Brigham Mills and John Mills. Sarah Brigham Mi- lls' grandfather in England, John Brigham, Esq. , was the squire of "Octon Grange," located near Foxholes in Yorkshire, England, The family belonged to the Church of England. It 1 said that one of the sons became a priest in the Church of England, while another died when he was studying at Oxford, John Brig- ham was also interested in the evangelistic outreach of John Wesley's revival. This is attes- ted by the fact that two of the books from his library which reached the shores of Canada despite the storms of the voyage were copies of John Wesley's Journals. Sarah's father and mother, .Richard and Ann Brigham, came to Canada from "High Vodden" near Scarborough, Yorkshire, England in 1854 during the Crimean War. They had five children, John, William, Ann, Carolyn and Sarah. Sarah was five years of age at the time. They crossed the Atlantic on the good ship "Charity" and were thirty days on a perilous voyage during which they had to burn their beautiful furniture to keep warn. On reaching Canada they lived for a year and a half' in the home of a relative in Chinguacousy township in Peel County. Then in an ox sleigh they moved to Hullett township where they set- tled on lot 15 on the 12th conc- ession. Despite the extreme hardships of early pioneer life Richard Brigham was known as a gentleman farmer. In 1886 his daughter Sarah became the wife of John Mills and moved to lot 5, concession 14, The Mills family, originally from Ireland, had moved from Little Falls, New Ycrk to Quebec. Then with .their three sons, John, Joseph -and Thomas they came to McKillop township in Ontario in 1853 where they took up the life of settlers. John and Sarah Brigham Mins and their six chi- ldren, William, John, Louisa, Amelia, Flora Ann (Florence), and Edith, were among the pioneers.who transformed this section of Canada from its prim- eval state to the 'productive far- ms for which Huron County is famous. John Mills was an up- right and honored citizen a pillar in the Methodist Church, A few years after her: husband's death in 1901 Mrs. Mills' and her daughters Flora Ann'and Edith came to Blyth where she built the residence on the cor- ner of Wellington and Queen Streets, Both girls attended Alma College majoring in music, elocution, literature and nursing, A copy of Shake- spear's hakespear's ',Julius Caesar" with her Alma College Room, No, 35, is to be found among Flora Ann's keepsake possessions, also the reading "Auntie Doleful's Visite with which she entertained her friends many times until she was well over 92 years of age, After coming to Blyth she also taught a Sunday School class in the Methodist Church in which she took a keen interest, The quality of her teaching at that time is reflected in a newspaper account of a presentation which was given to two of her class members, Misses Ella and Laura Wettlaufer, It reads as follows: _ 'Dear Girls:- As teacher and members of your class we note with sorrow that our associations must soon be severed; During the years we have rejoiced in your faithfulness to the Sunday School, and your increased knowledge in the ward of God, Since in the providence of God you move from our midst, we trust that your associations will be of the best and noblest, and that the claim of the Sunday School and Church will ever be responded to most heartily, and we also trust that the Word of God will be ' A lamp unto your feet, and a light unto your path,' " We ,ask each of you to accept a Bible as a slight token of our esteem, and trust in the years to come as their leayes are turned, and truths gathered, that rich blessings will come into your lives, and old class -mates will not be forgotten." She became the wife of Rev. F.E. Clysdale (son of Ontario pioneers also) of Carlstadt, Alberta in 1914, and for 52 years she served with him until his death in 1966 in the ministry of the Methodist Church and la- ter the United Church of Canada, in the West and in Ontario in the London, Hamilton and Toronto conferences, This included Salem, (near Teeswater), Ford- wich, Atwood, Exeter (Main St.) Ridgetown, Brantford (Wesley), Guelph (Norfolk St, ), Owen Sound (Central), Palmerston, Ilderton and Thorndale, and supply preaching at Grand Bend and London (Hyatt Ave, ). The regard in which she was held was cogently expressed in the letter presented to her by the Ladies Aid of the Norfolk St, United Church in Guelph, June 21, 1935 on her departure for Owen Sound; "We have lear- ned to love your gentle manner and we will miss you greatly. You have always been such a willing helper and you were always so interested in all our undertakings... -. Far thee may every joy be sent„ For thee be peace and heart's content, For thee be mirth and laughter; Be- neath your roof may love abide, . This day and ever after." This note of appreciation was reiterated in the tribute paid to her by her son-in-law, the Rev. Dr. N. Burnett Magruder of Louisville, Kentucky, in the memorial service in London in which he participated along with the Rev. Dr. D. Graham Tipple, minister of the Calvary United Church: "Mrs. Clysdale had a quiet grace and strength of spirit which can come rnrly from the Author of the Christian faith, As a person, she represented a great tradition - our Christian heritage which was brought to these shores from across the waters. Her peo- ple helped shape Christian civil- ization on this continent and car- ve out a nation far the glory of God, This is our heritage. We must guard and preserve it." The Rt. Rev. Alfred L. Ban - yard, D.D. , S. T. D. , Bishop of New Jersey Protestant Episco- pal Church, sent this blessing in an Easter letter to her daughter, Dr, Judith Brigham: '! , , . I can appreciate what a wonderful clergyman's wife she was. May your mother have the two -fold resurrection: one, with Our Lord in Paradise, and the other in the lives of those who were privile- ged to know her during the nin- ety-four years which she has been on this earth."

Dry cottage cheese is as it is first made. If ',creamed'' app - ,ears on the label, it means that three tablespoons of fresh dairy cream have been added to every eight ounces of cheese. Crea- med cottage cheese must have a 4 per cent fat content. There- fore, 1/4 cup of dry cottage cheese will supply about 42 cal- ories; and the same amount of creamed cottage cheese, 60 calories. An equivalent amount of dry cottage cheese would be slightly higher in protein than the creamed type. Flavored cottage cheese has onion or fruit pieces added to it. Cottage Cheese is an unripened cheese, at its best when fresh. It should be used within two to three days of purchase and must be kept refrigerated. Creamed cottage cheese does not freeze satisfactorily, but many dishes using it as an ingredient may be frceen.

The new tax provision, which became effective April 18, 1973, is retroactive to the beginning of the 1972 tax year. In the past, business losses of one year could be carried back one year cx forward five years to offset an otherwise taxable in- come. (A loss in 1968 could offset part or all of a taxable income in 1972.) Many far- mers, however, are continually increasing livestock inventories and are in a loss position for more than five years. This has meant that the loss carry forward provision could not be fully exe- Poultry conference in June The 16th Annual Poultry Indus- try Conference and Exhibition: will be held at the London Fair Grounds on June 12, 13 and 14. There will be special days for turkey, broiler, and egg produ- cers, according to Don Luckham, chairman of the publicity comm- ittee for the Annual Conference. About 100 exhibitors are expected to display the latest in production, management, and marketing equipment. The 1973 program will include a special ladies' program feat- uring various uses of poultry meat and eggs. Other activities will Include a chicken barbecue and special draws to be conducted each day. The draw prizes inc- lude a year's supply of turkey, chicken and eggs donated by the respective ma!'keting boards. Admission to the Conference and Exhibition is free with a care from one of the exhibitors. Without the card admission is $1.00.

Boyd Taylor Ph. 523-9279 rcised, because of the time res- triction, and yet the total inv- entory would be subject to tax when sold. To,overcome this hardship, the federal government is pow allow- ing farmers to hold livestock purchases ottt of expenses in any given year; and is permitting these purchases to be brought back into expenses at any time, the next year or even 20 years hence. An example may best explain this new concept. A farmer dec- ides to expand in any given year by purchasing the 100 -acre farm next door. His costs include ti- ling, fencerow clearing, barn renovationsand other necessary items, While these expenses alone may reduce his otherwise taxable income to zero, he also purchases 75 steers at an addit- ional cost of $20,000, giving him a negative tax position. Instead of declaring the cattle expenses and thus a loss, hoping to carry this loss forward or av- erage it, the farmer can now set the $20, 000, or part, 'off to the side with a note to the tax peo- ple to that effect. If, the fol lowing year or even 10 years later, the farmer earns $15, 000 worth of taxable income, ,. $15,000 of the $20,000 livestock inventory cost can be brought into expenses to offset the tax- able income. The flexibility of this ruling is far greater than the old Basic "erd provision and is superior to the old five-year loss carry • forward provision pre mentioned, Livestock farmers wishing to revise their 1972 income tax re- turn - turn to take advantage of the new ruling should obtain a 1972 individual Tax Return form from their local post office and fill it in, declaring their intention to withhold from expenses any liv- estock inventory purchases made in 1972. It is important to remember that livestock is the only agric- ultural c_ ominodity affected by the new federal tax ruling. - 1y Don't overpower.

The Tower of London? Shakespeare's home town? Wordsworth's lake country? Winchester Cathedral? This is not yet a'burning question around our house, but I've been giving it some thought. Somehow, tramp- ing around with, a clump of tourists while some guide spiels off a bored monologue doesn't appeal to me, 1 spent many a leave in London during the war, and never did get around to see- ing anything historical, beyond a few ancient pubs. And when 1 think of the south of England, and the north of England, and Scot- land, all that comes to mind is piles of picturesque pubs, I did spend an afternoon in the cathedral at Chester. But that was because I was with a girl, and it was cool and private in there. And the pubs weren't open yet, 1 spent a month within a stone's throw of ancient Kenilworth Castle, and didn't get near it, The castle was in the opposite direction to an ancient and venerable thatch -roofed pub, out in the country. Another two months was spent near Shrewsbury, one of the very old county towns, no doubt crawling with his- tory, All I can remember are two pubs, the Red Lion and the Old Post Office, When we didn't go there, we nipped across the nearby Welsh bor- der to the little town of, Oswestry, where there was a pub with a roaring open fire and a constant game of Tip - It, an old game that is as psychological as poker, One of the few historical sites 1 did visit was in the old market town of Dumfries, in Scotland, The site was — you guessed it—a pub where the bard Robbie Burns spent most of.his evenings when he lived near there. I felt pretty cultural about that, When in London, do as the Londoners do, was my motto, And you don't find them standing around gawk- ing at the guards or limping on weary arches through the Tower, You find them in the pubs. Sound like one long, alcoholic orgy? I hasten to assure you that it wasn't. It was a matter of choice, not a boozer's delight, You could hang around the officers' mess. This was wnar:s;uaw at Hu rofli. Ninety grade seven and eight students from Huron Centennial School at Brucefield presented their spring program, "Show- boat", on Monday afternoon, The show, directed by the mus- ical director, Mrs. Doris Mc- Kinley with piano accompani- ment by Mrs. Mary Moffat, was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone with a fine display of musical talent. The Principal of the school, Mr. Mathers, introduced the program with the appreciat- ion of the residents extended by Mr. Hugh Walker. The Clinton Kinette Club entertained the ladies from Gro- und Floor North and Centre on Tuesday evening at a social get-together at the Clinton , Public School. Members of the Club provided transportation to the school and, following an evening of bridge, euchre and crokinole, served lunch to the guests. From all reports, it was a most delightful evening. On Thursday evening, "Family Night" there was another first for the Home when the Brookside school at Dungannon entertained the residents with a minstrel show. This show had been pre- sented at the school in April and was complete with an Interloca- tor, and men, jokes and fine singing and acting from the en- tire group of forty students. Members of the teaching formed the orchestra with Louise Wilson, Art Finlayson, Don Cameron, Ted Pritchard, Colin Cameron and Rick Orr, taking part. Mr. Bob Rutledge, a former native of Dungannon, thanked the group ,on behalf of the residents, expres• sing the hope they would come back again, as it was rated by everyone as one of the best shows.

Bill recalls old London haunts a bleak, draughty place with a few ancient magazines, The only source of heat was a fireplace with about three bits of coal sputtering in it, and, sta9ding in front of it, three or four fat senior officers with whiskies in hand. Or you could get on your bike, with a few kindred souls; and huddle off through the rain to the pub, There you found warmth, both physical and social, Girls — Navy, Land Army, Waaf, Local colour, Games -darts or shove -ha' -penny, And if you hit the right night and knew the barmaid, there might even be spam sand- wiches. The - ale was incidental, Well, which of the two would you have chosen, if you were a young man? No question. Right? However, that brings me to my present predicament, I can't very well take my wife all the way to England and expect her to be wildly enthusiastic over nothing but an extended pub crawl, Somehow I can't see her being ecstatic about bicy- cling through the rain to get to The Gate Hangs High, up in North Wales, It has room for twelve customers and we used to get about thirty in there, She might enjoy the Ches. hire Cheese, on Fleet St, Or. the Wagon Shed, at Horley, the Nag's Head, behind St, George's Hospital on Kit- tygut St,, or the Star and Garter, St. John's Wood. But one interesting pub becomes much like another after a while, unless you just want to get in out of the rain, or . unless you have memories. What it comes down to is this, If a man's going back to his old haunts, he should leave his wife at home, Otherwise, he'll hear some- thing like, "What in the world do you see in this place? The 'Golden Lion' my foot, It looks more like a brindled dog. When are we having lunch at Claridges?" So, I guess the only choice is to leave her at home. I'll miss her but I won't be lonely, I'm going to call a couple of old buddies, Jack Ryan and Bill Proctor, who ! have sentimental memories of the same pubs, Take them along. Woops, Ryan has six kids. Might be a bit awkward for him, And, oh yeah, Proc- tor took his wife to England a few years ago, introduced her to some of his old girl friends, with disastrous results; He's forbidden ever ' to go again. Oh, well, I guess me and the Old Lady can sit and feed the pigeons in Traflagar Square.

The problem that affects Blyth is a common one in Huron county right now. It is a lack of people interested in investing money to develop their own towns. For 'many years things were so stag- nant in Huron that there was no . need for the developer. Today, the need is growing every year for people willing to invest th- eir money and time in building houses, apartments, stores and office buildings, No development of this sort is going on in Blyth.

Speaker from Japan at United Church' Blyth United Church was fav- oured Sunday morning with a guest in the person of Dennis Howlett, son of Rev. and Mrs. Floyd Howlett of Hokkaido, Japan. Dennis spoke to the Sunday School and in the Church Service, Following the Service, there was opportunity for questions, Dennis grew up in Japan where his parents are missionaries of the United Church of Canada. Last fall, Dennis came to Can- ada and has just completed his first year at York University. This summer, he is doing social work with. Senior Citizens in Toronto as part of a Local Init- iative's Project. Last summer, Dennis worked in Bangladesh with a group of Japanese farmers who were spon-, sored by the church to help the people with their agriculture. He spoke of the poverty in that land, and that,it.is not enough simplyy'. to give k�"ogle iso .,gulled �,.:,, �'' hand-outs!.but that we: must'. help them to help themselves. He said, too, that we must_ also do what we can to change the political, social and economic structures that foster poverty, ignorance and injustice. Health proposal gets silent treatment Approval of the building and plu mb ing inspection syste m pro- posed by the Huron County Hea- lth Unit will not come quickly if at all. Hullett council joined the list of local municipalities to postpone judgement on the pro- posal for a county -wide inspec- tion system on a user -pays basis as proposed by Dr, Frank Mills, County Medical Officer of Health, The initial budget for the department would be $40,000. Users would pay the cost of ;the inspection at a rate that would amount to about $300 for most new houses, East Wawanos'n council also postponed decision on the pro- posal . Blyth council took no official action on the matter at its May meeting though from an informal discussion among coun- ciIIors at the beginning of the meeting, it seems certain they are not likely to give it approval unless there is a change of mind. Several members felt the inspec- , tion system proposed is now be- ing carried out on new buildings anyway before National Housing Authority mortgages win appro- val. W.I.convention next week In the Service, Dennis spoke of "Sharing Bread", not only the bread of the stomach but the bread of life. He emphas- ized "sharing". It is not eno- ugh to give to others but we must learn to receive from them.

The former Pearl Gidley house at the cor- ner of Dinsley and Wilson Streets in Blyth is up for sale' now as anyone who drives by can easily tell. The house has been listed with fair different real estate agencies and there are so many signs' around, itis almost hard to see the house.
