Senior housing policy
3ecomes county ru ed
Huron County council
endorsed a county -wide policy for
senior citizens housing at its
Friday session and now plans to
amtact each municipality in the
county to see if suitable
agreements can be worked out.
Council accepted a recommen-
dt:tion from executive committee
that would have the county pick
up any operating deficits from
senior citizens residences in order
to establish a county wide
residency rule.
The committee felt that more
efficient use could be made of
senior citizens units if a one year
aunty wide residency rule was
adopted. To accomplish the
residency rule the county plans to
negotiate with each municipality
to relieve the municipalities of the
responsibility of the operating
deficit. This would become a
county concern.
Under the present system the
municipality the senior citizens
housing is located in is
responsible for 71/2 percent of any
operating deficit the unit incurs.
By accepting the responsibility
for the operating deficit the
municipality ensures that its
senior citizens will get housing
when needed by invoking the one
year residency rule.The senior
citizens trust live in the
municipality in which the unit is
located for one year to be eligible
for the government-sponsored
housing.
The committee felt that the
residency rule could be expanded
to cover the entire county if the
county picked up the deficits.
That way all seniors in the county
would be assured eligibility tor
government housing even it' their
municipality had no housing
within its jurisdiction.
County clerk Bill Hanly
explained to council that if the
county picked up the deficit the
costs would be prorated across
the municipalities in the county.
He said that larger municipalities
would pay a greater portion of the
costs due to their population but
added that the costs would be Tess
than if they had to pay the entire
71/2 percent on a unit in their
jurisdiction.
Hanly explained that the
motion would not put the county
into any position to dictate
location of future units. He said
each municipality would still be
Icft to negotiate for its own units
as the need developed.
Mr. Hanly said all that would
change would be the eligibility
rule meaning a person in Zurich
could move into a unit in
Wingham if he wished without
having to live in Wingham a year•
to become eligible. He added that
the person would not be sent to
Wingham unless requested and
would be permitted to locate in
the municipality of his choice.
Bayfield reeve Ed Oddleifson
said that he favored the notion
provided the senior citizens still
had the right to live where they
chose. He said the motion was
another step that would ensure
that senior citizen units were used
to the most advantage. He added
that vacancies in the units were
very costly to the municipality
that built them.

complimented the Federation for
the "strong leadership it has
shown in Huron County".
A resolution opposing the
proposed Bogies Beach develop -
mend on la kefront property

by the Federation.
A resolution setting up a
committee to study data from the
Pollution and Land Use Activities

established in. 1973 by the
International Joint Committee,
was also approved.
The Federation Committee is to
be made up of experts in a
number of fields, including
fertilizer, livestock management.
and erosion. It will publicize
problems relating to land use and
the PLUARG studies in general,
and will make a submission to the
LJC before that body makes any
final decisions on the PLUARG
findings, in 1978.
Bev Brown told the group the
issue of land use management
was vitally important to Huron
farmers. She noted that there
would not be another chance to
make a submission to the L1C
until 1983 if the opportunity was
missed next year, since the
committee meets only once every
five years.
A resolution calling for
research, development and the
eventual im flementation of small
scale electrical generating
stations close to farm areas where
any waste heat could be used for
greenhouse operations, was
defeated by the Federation.

Working for Blyth
Now that the celebration of Hallowe'en officially
has brought summer to a close congratulations are
due to a group who is particularly active in summer.
There is in Blyth a large groupof abtive concerned
citizens who should deserve hearty thanks from the
community for all the fine work they have done and
that is the Horticultural Society . Out of a total
population of 860 in the village more than 300 people
are involved in some aspect or another of the society
work.The fact that the club commands the attention
of so many residents is an indication of the job it is
doing.
This year Blyth marked its Centennial and among
the highlights were the floral displays throughout the
village - each a credit to the Society and to the
community. The displays did not go unnoticed by the
many visitors that came to Blyth for the celebrations.
Much of the work of the society, particularly in
recent years, has been carried on by the older
members who cannot continue to assume such
responsibilities indefinately. If the record
established by the society is to_be maintained it will
be necessary for those of younger years to take more
active part. Such an interest on the part of younger
members coupled with the guidance of the older
members can ensure continuance of the society
contribution for many more years to come.
Congratulations to the Horticultural Society on the
fine job it did in 1977. The contribution helped make
Blyth not only a delight to view but a delight to live
in.
Need to be practical
Money is important to all of us in one way or
another, whether we use it to buy luxuries or simply
to provide the food and shelter that are basic to life.
That's why the current situation in Sudbury is
significant for everyone who works. The whole idea
of having the job that feeds your family eliminated is
enough to arouse anger and frustration in anyone.
Although it is easy to sympathize with the 3,500
miners who will soon be out of work, one must be
objective and view the I NCO situation from the other
side in order to assess the problem fully.
According to press releases INCO is caught up in
the world wide slump of nickel prices and the slump
of their major buyer, U.S.Steel. In order for the
company to survive through the next few years they
must lay off people, we're told.
INCO and its employees have a number of options,
some more feasible than others. Stock piling nickel
would only postpone the inevitable. Nationalizing the
company would set a dangerous precedent in a free
enterprise economy.
The miners could refuse to - work overtime and
work to rule, but few seem willing to do that.
Government subsidies are not the answer. The
government is not a bottomless pit of wealth - and if
subsidies were p aid the already burdened taxpayer
of Ontario would feel the pinch. The best thing would
be for INCO to set up job programs in cooperation
with the provincial government which would finance
themselves from profits earned.
Let us not lose ourselves in anger at both industry
and government. We must be practical in order to
survive.

Behind
the,..Srnnes
By Keith Roulston
Isn't it nice to know that in a world where
people are so concerned with such superficial
problems as unemployment, national unite
and hunger in third world countries, some
people are still addressing themselves to the
real issues of this life?
It's comforting to realize that with chaos all
around them some individuals keep their calm
.and carry on with the necessities of life, like
snaking sure that tables are set with the plates
one half inch from the edge and that salt and
pepper shakers should always face the front
door of the diningroom. I tell you it restores
one's faith in mankind.
'those little gents of wisdom arc being
dispensed at a•special course being conducted
this fall by one of the more high class dining
establishments in this part of the province.
For only $150 for a 10 -week course, you can
learn essential information like the fact that a
bottle of 1865 Chateau Lafite-Rothschild once
sold for 125,000 English pounds. Sadly, only
about three dozen people felt the need of such
important knowledge enough to pay the fee
and take the course, even though a gourmet
meal was thrown in at every session. What is
the world corning to?
I'm afraid that I'm among those slobs who
are leading the world into oblivion through
lack of interest in such basic knowledge of life.
I'm not one of the people who has made Emily
Post rich providing information on how to
properly shake hands with a stranger. These
little trappings of life are as important as life
itself, the refined person will tell you.
I'm not a complete loss. I still hold doors
open for ladies even though in this day of
women's lib, 1 feel like a sap doing it. I don't
drink my coffee out of a saucer, at the prices
who could risk spilling a drop. I don't drop
ashes on the rug (that's an easy one, I don't
smoke).
But when it comes past the bare essentials
of etiquette, I'm a little lost sheep. I never feel
as uncomfortable as when I'ni surrounded
by people who care more about what spoon I
use first at the table than if I beat my wife.
One of life's most embarrassing moments
for me is when I get into one of those high
class restaurants and i feel as if I were in some
foreign land where all the customs and
language were different. Where I grew up,
the object of sitting down at a table with food
in front of you was to fill your stomach with
enough food to provide enough energy to keep
you pitching cow manure until the next time
von sat down at a table. As long as you didn't
use your fingers, talk with your mouth full or
cat peas with a knife, it was no -holds -barred.
Suddenly, you're in a place \vherc \ghat you
cat doesn't matter as much as how you cat it.
You must know all the subtle little rules or
you'll soon he spotted as an imposter, a
clodhopper from the backwoods wlto likely
still has hayseeds in his hair,
I remember when some friends of our went
with us to celebrate our wedding miniver -
stoics, Re were married just a fey clays apart.
at the ritziest dining spot in this arca. We had
a secluded table in a corner so we weren't
worrying too much about being seen as
interlopers in this fashionable world. We felt
adventurous. however, and decided to
celebrate with a bottle of wine. We went over
the wine list, shuddered at the prices and
finally chose about the cheapest thing we
could find. What foliowecf was a ceremony
reminiscent of the coronation of Queen
Elizabeth. The manager, no less, delivered
the bottle, elegantly laying it along his arm
and slightly stooping so 1 could approve the
label. fie then uncorked the bottle and poured
a slight bit in the glass and handed it for nye to
sip. At the best of time, I have a tough time
distinguishing between a bottle of old Sailer
and French champagne but embarrassed as I
now was, I would have given my nod of
approval if it had been vinegar. Such pomp
and ceremony may be fine for a bot de of
Chateau Lafitc-Rothschild at 125,000 pounds
but for a bottle of $5 wine it would have been
much more pleasant if they'd sent the
dishwasher from the kitchen.
Now 1 know I should be thoroughly ashamed
at my lack of couch, that 1 should do something
radical like take the $150 course or at least
write to Ann Landers. Somehow, though, I
just can't bring myself to care. I guess I'll just
have to consider as my degenerate old self and
worry about world peace instead of important
things like what wine to serve with my duck
('orange.

AFGHANS AND APRONS — Mrs. Grace Easom of Blyth is a creator of afghans
and aprons and displays her goods at craft shows in the area. (Staff Photo)
Began with aprons
Crafts keep Blyth lady busy
(race I:asoni of Blyth is a lady
with her hands full. Besides
snaking aprons and afghans, she
carves things out oI' leather and
she is also involved in many Blyth
groups.
1 ter craft career got started with
her aprons. Always one to look at
the materials rather than goods
that were already made-up, when
her daughters were small she'd
pick up a nice piece of material
and she'd bring it tonic rather
than a ready-made dress. She put
these pieces of material away in a
chest and after awhile she had
collected quite a few pieces and
she had so many pieces that she
didn't know what to do with them
all.
One day she was -talking to a
lady in Winghanl who suggested
that she made the material into
aprons and Mrs. Easom has been
following her suggestion for over
20 years now.
She started making bib aprons
and cobbler aprons and later on ,
kindergarten aprons which had
little pockets in them for children
to put their crayons, scissors,
pencils and paper in. Mrs. Easom
sells between 200 and 300 aprons
per year.
Mrs. Easom displays her goods
at the Saltford, Ripley Craft
Shows as well as at the
T'hresher's Reunion and the
Horticultural and Flower Show in
Blyth.
The afghans were sonicthing
Mrs. Easom started ahout nine
years ago when their family
moved from a farm just outside of
Auburn into Blyth.
How she got started doing the
afghans is uncertain but Mrs.
Baintoneers beat
Seaforth in
broomball game
Blyth Baintoneers travelled to
Seaforth on October 19th to play
their first Women's broomball
league game.
Joyce Carter opened the
scoring unassisted and the score
closed after the first half at one
nothing for Blyth.
In the second half Linda Hamm
scored unassitcd. Late in the
second half Carter scored
unassisted from Mary Anne
Cook. The game ended Blyth
Baintoneers 3 SEaforth Junior
Farmers 0.
Blyth was in Seaforth again on
October 26 to play the second
league game against Centralia.
Goals were scored by Mary Anne
Cook, Joyce Carter from Linda
Hamel, Annet to Ward from
Diane Anderson and Diane
Anderson from Kim German. The
first half ended four to nothing in
favour of Blyth. The second half
was scoreless. The game ended
Blyth four Centralia no score.
Easom says she loves to knit. She
even has baby carriage afghans.
She gut interested in doing
leather work about 10 years ago
\i hen the Blyth Public 5 ch ool was
offering a course in it. She has
made coasters, a stool and
baggage lags and has made
purses for herself and her family
but she doesn't sell the leather
goods, just the afghans and the
aprons.
Mrs. Easom also took a course
in making Japanese embroidery
and is active in the Women's
institute, the U.C.W. and the
Horticultural Society.
"I just like to keep my hands
busy," Mrs. Easom said.
Does Blyth need a
Block Parent program?
If y our young son or daughter ever needed a place to run
to, a refuge from strangers or a place to turn when feeling ill,
would they have one? A Block Parent could provide this
refuge but does Blyth.need a Block Parent Program?
The Block Parent Program is a program which provides a
place for children to run to in an emergency,
In a block parent program white cards with day-glo red
lettering picturing a child, hand in h and with an adult, are
clearly displayed in front room windows in at least two homes
in each block.
The sign advises the children that here is a place of refuge
if they are alarmed by strangers, in case of an accident,
illness or if they need to run from bullies or vicious dogs.
The Program is a community effort involving the local
police force, local school boards and the Volunteer Block
Parent. The Block Parent Program is under the auspi ces of
the Canada Safety Council and supported by the Ontario
Safety League.
If you th ink incidents such as child molesting are not about
to happen in a small village like Blyth- consider the words of
Margaret McGee, chairman of the Ontario block Parent
Advisory Committee. Referring to the fact that small towns
and rural areas do not believe they is the need for such a
program, she said.
"But it is a false sense of security, and it is time they
realize it". Harrow a small town of 2000 has had three
attempted pick-ups in the last year.
The town of Winghanl has just started such a program but
it is too early to tell how effective the program really is.
The Wingham program is being sponsored initially by the
Royal Canadian Legion. Don Farnell, a member of Ole
committee organizing the program said there was sonic
resistance to the idea at first because the people felt that a
small town had no need for such a program.
Consider the facts and decide whether Blyth would benefit
from such a program.

Church holds
Thanksgiving
St. Marks Anglican Church in
Auburn celebrated its annual
Harvest Thanksgiving service last
Sunday. The congregation was
pleased to welcome the Black
Knights of the District who chose
St. Marks for their church parade.
The organist was Mrs. Murray,
Nesbitt. The church was beauti-
fully decorated by the ladies of
the parish with harvest fare. The
Rev. Dan Sargent preached on
being born again and stated that
God has no grandchildren - only
sons and daughters, and each one
mast choose for themselves.
Christianity isn't inherited from
one's parents and one cannot
enter the Kingdom simply
because they had a certificate of
baptism. The acting Lay Reader,
.lames Towe assisted in the
service with the reading of
scripture and the offering of
prayer.
The shadow cast upon an
otherw•i,e enlightening and joyful
time was the temperature in the
church.The furnace had quit
during the night leaving the
temperature in the church at 38
degrees. Rev. Sargent pointed
out that the smoke coming out of
his mouth was due to the cold and
was not to be mistaken for
hellfire and brimstone. The
service of song was enlightened
by a solo by the rector to guitar
accompaniment during the
receiving of the offering.

Activities centre on arena
(By Debbie Ranney)
I3elgravc is a tiny community
but a subdivision going up in one
corner of the village gives
evidence that it will soon be
growing bigger.
It is here that a group of people
working toward a common goal
managed to build and preserve an
arena, an arena around which the
community itself is centered.
Community spirit built the
Belgrave arena and conimunity
spirit keeps it going.
The present arena, built in
1%3, was the product of
volunteer labor and volunteer
donations as well as some grants.
The volunteer labor and
donations came from Belgrave,
East Wawanosh and Morris
Townships. The balance of the
KEEPS THE COMMUNITY ALIVE — The Belgrave
arena is where Belgrave community life is centered.
All important events and recreational activities take
place here. Two of the biggest events held here are
the Turkey Supper and the Welsh Country Fayre.

money needed to build the arena
comes from government grants.
Alxnut 75 percent of the cost was
borne by the government.
Clarence Hanna, former reeve
of East Wawanosh Township and
a former member of the arena's
board of directors, said the
township estimated that they'd
have to raise $13,000 on their
own, but when they went out
canvassing the response was
excellent and $18,00 was
collected. They canvassed the
Wingham, Blythe, East
Wawanosh and Morris Township
areas.
The townships of East Wawan-
osh and Morris arc supposed to
pick up any debts that the arena
itself' may have at the end of each
year, but so far they haven't had
to.
"The arena is paying for
itse.If. Everybody said it would
be a real elephant but it's done
wonderfully," Mr. Hanna said.
A real elephant the arena isn't,
as communities from all over use
it and the people's dedication to it
is obvious.
The arena is a hub of activity in
the wintertime.
Ice in the Belgrave arena isn't
artificially made as it is in most
other community arenas.
Fknoding of the ice surface can't
start until the temperature inside
the building is consistently below
freezing. Conditions aren't
usually right until the week
before Christmas. But once the
ice is ready, the building is used
almost constantly, day and night,
Mr. Hanna says.
Throughout the winter months
the arena is used for small hockey
games and ice skating. This year

there will be Live hockey teams -
tyke, squirt, pewee, bantani and
midget. 'These are Tri -County
teams. 'Their playing schedule
starts sometime in November.
For big playoff games, they
usually rent the ice in other
arenas, because late in the season
the ice in the Belgrave arena may
not be good enough.
When the warm weather conies
and the ice disappears the arena
is turned over to other uses. East
Wawanosh 'Township Council
mets upstairs in the auditorium,
the Huron County Library keeps a
supply of books there and euchre
parties are frequently held.
But by far the biggest event at
the arena each year is the turkey
supper that's held on the
Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
It's been an annual event in
Belgrave since 1949.
It is the turkey supper which is
a major source of funding for the
arena. The nurncy raised from the
supper gives children free hockey
and free skating for beginning
children on Saturday afternoons.
A lot of meat, vegetables,
coffee and dessert are consumed
at that supper, This year about

amount of home grown potatoes,
150 dozen buns, 28 pounds of
butter, 24 pounds of coffee and 75
pounds of sugar were consumed
There were also about 16 or 18
pies to a table which made for a
lot of good eating.
About 1000 people attended
this year's dinner which is given
by t he community itself. For each
of the past two years the supper
has raised about $2000.
Last year the arena was one of
those which fell victims to
government condemnation. The
community decided it should be
repaired.
The engineering firm of B.M.
Ross was called in and plans were
made to reinforce the building.
More wood and steel had to be
put into the structure to reinforce
it. It cost about $55,000 to do the
necessary repairs. Once again,
volunteer labor and volunteer
donations from the same places
played a major part in getting the
arena fixed.
The Belgrave arena is a case in
point of a small community
proving the skeptics wrong, doing
something on their own, just
because they believe in their
community and want to keep it
alive.

TROJAN
HYBRID CORN SEED
Not always better,
but better overall.
This Fall, more Canadian farmers will
see the figures that show Trojan does
a better job for them. With corn that
yields, stands, dries down—is in some
way—better.
Trojan won't come out on top every
time, of course. But Trojan will win
overall. Simply because Trojan has a
better chance of developing the best
hybrids.
One reason: all those Pfizer
research farms. In Ontario. In the US
corn belt. In Florida. They even have
some in Hawaii where they get 31/2
generations of corn a year!
Ask us if Trojan has a hybrid that
will do better on your farm. We'll tell
you if we don't. We're that kind of
company.

From the Minister's Study
The pause that refreshes
In my office on tiic wall in front
of my desk is a plaque which says,
"Keep Looking Up". Sometimes,
when 1 become anxious or
oppressed in my desk work, the
plaque gently reminds me to look
up to God in prayer. And when
do, it is amazing how His peace
and Tight floods your heart.
In the midst of our daily
activities and concerns, we need
the pause that refreshes. "He
gives power to the faint, and to
him who has no might he
increases strength. Even youths
shall faint and be weary, and
young men shall fall exhausted;
but they who wait for the Lor d
shall renew their strength, they
shall mount tip with wings like
eagles, they shall run and not be
weary, they shall walk and not
faint." (Isaiah 40:29-31).
Walton WI
has euchr
One of the simple things that
we can learn to do each day is to
pause in the midst of life's
pressures and look up to God for
grace and courage. We know that
God is always with us to renew
our lives and to give us victory
and joy in the midst of confusion
and weakness. Why not try it the
next time things are getting you
down and sec what a lift it gives.
"Rejoice in the Lord always;
again 1 will say, Rejoice. The Lord
is at hand, Have no anxiety about
anything, but in everything by
prayer and supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be
made known to God. And the
peace of God, which passes all
understanding, will keep your
hearts and'your minds in Christ
Jesus".( Philippians 4: 4-7)
