In September, the potential yield was estimated at 2.5 million cwt. for the 160,000 acres of leans growing in the province. Even at the very low yield figure of 700 pounds per acre, a total of 1,120,000 cwt. of beans might have been harvested. But the harvest to date has reached only 731,000 cwt., and the board estimates the final total will not exceed 850,000 cwt. That repre- sents an average yield of only 530 pounds per acre on the total acreage planted this year. The low yield average is the result of rain damage and the consequent plowing under of thousands of acres of unharvested beans. Bean growers in Michigan have not been nearly so hard hit, and County 4H clubs hold Achievement night Friday(By Wilnm Okc) Sharon Colclough, a 20 -year old Clinton secretary, was named the outstanding 4-H member at the 30th Annual Huron County 4-H Achievement Night Friday. She received the Robert McKinley citizenship trophy for 4-11 home and community activities and the Pineridge chalet trophy for the highest score in the sn owmobile club. She is an active member of the Huron 4-1-1 Youth Council and has completed 11 projects. Len MacGregor, extension assistant for Huron County with the ministry of agriculture and food, said $1,275 in prize money, certificates, pins and plaques were awarded to 30 clubs. He said 430 members participated in 525 projects with 90 per cent completion. Paul Pavkejc, R.R.2, Centralia, received a trophy for highest 4-1-1 score in the county - 955 points out of 1,000. He received the Vincent Farm Equipment trophy for highest score in the tractor club and Hully Gully trophy for the top 4-H snowmobile club member. He has completed 18 projects. The Huron County warden's novice award went to Nancy Dietz, R.R.3, Kippen, for the highest score in her first year. Brian Pym, R.R.1, Centralia, received the J.A.Anstett award for the highest score in the beef clubs; Dianne Oldfield, R.R.4, Seaford), the Canadian Imperial (Continued on Page 20). yields there are actually higher this year than in previous years, despite weather conditions identical to those which have prevailed here. The OBPMB estimates the Mchigan yield at about 4,600,000 cwt. Yields are averaging 1,200 pounds per acre, up 20 per cent from the 1000 Ixnnuls per acre. Michigan producers averaged last year. The difference is being attributed to the virtual absence of root rot, which has cut into the Michigan yields by as much as 25 percent in other years. (Continued on Page 10) Council vetoes loan to OHRP Blyth council vot ed unanimously Monday night not to provide $8,000 in loans under the Province's home Renewal Progarm. The provincail program ran out of funds clue to heavy response fmm honk owners. The province had recently asked that the village Forward funds to local applicants on condition that council would be re-enbursed by the province when further funds became available in March of next year. Local applications will remain on file with the government and will be processed when further funds are available. Clerk Larry Walsh was instructed to write to John Lyndon in Goderich, concerning the county's suggestion to co-ordinate the Senior Housing Projects in the county. Council would approve the move on condition that the initial choice of residents for the housing, be guided by council so that Blyth residents have priority above new occupants from other areas. Mery Ritchie has been hired by council at $5 per hour for the winter season as snow plow and tractor operator. New chains are to be purchased for the municipal snow plow. It was brought to the attention of council that the old chains were beyond repair. Council moved to proceed with expropriation of land belonging to the estates of T.A. G. Gordon. Situated beside the housing project, it is for future uses. A 70' x 66' portion of Gypsy lane is to be transferred from the village to the province by bylaw for the purpose of a sewage pumping station, to be erected there in the future. Correspondence was received from the provincial government concerning the possibility of a Mobility Club in Huron County. It would entail transportation sponsored by a local group or organization for handicapped, disabled, elderly or people without a car. Council felt that there was no great need in Blyth for this service at present, and felt the program would be abused nxnre than taken advantage of. Council was requested by HUDAC, a government agency, not to issue building permits unless the contractor is registered with therm. HUDAC requires every hum built for resale, or by contract, to be registered, as well as the builder. A five year warranty is offered for the hone wncr against faulty workmanship and materials which is void when abused by the owner. HUDAC stipulate that there be only one builder or contractor or the home cannot be registered. Council is to look into the matter locally before replying to HUDAC. In other business building permits were issued to rudy Lcibold for an 8' x 12' storage shed and to Russel Cook for an 12' x 24' carport. A grant has been provided by the Government for wa ste nianagentent and cleanup. Councillors Bill Howson and Albert Wasson are to review the situation at the sanitation site and report back to council as to wha t needs to be done in order to clean up the site. Complaints were brought concerning the Whitfield drain but no one was there to present their case. Council reviewed complaints about youths loitering in front of the Bank of Commerce on Main Street late in the evening,but unless council can enforce a proposed curfew bylaw they will let the case rest A FULL HOUSE — 300 people were present in the Blyth Memorial Hall Sunday evening to hear the Sellwoods sing. The free concert was sponsored by the Blyth U.C.W.

From me to you THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 9, 1977 -3 The intricacies of old cupboards Onc often hears the well phrased comment "They sure don't make things like they used to". And that is the truth when it comes to furniture. We h ad-thegood fortune to buy an old pine cupboard that was in two pieces, top and bottom. • The bottom we stripped and refiished and now proudly sits in the kitchen. The top part was not needed at the time and was left to stand in the garage for the time being while a use for it was in the thought process. This weekend 1 decided we could use the cupboard top in the cellar next to the cold closet and it would hold jars and unused scalers. "Grand idea" my husband said but there were a few problem involved with the chore of taking it down the cellar stairs. Number one - the stairs are not the normal up and down straight kind that are found in almost every home. No, they spiral from the upstairs down to the basement. And to top it all off they are the smallest 28" wide stairs ever built of that nature. The cupboard measures 4 feet high and 54 inches long. Bull- headed , as we tend to be, we tried to navigate the stairs without dismantling the cupboard. Needless to say we couldn't budge it and it had to be partially dismantled. This sounds easier than it really was. As I had to leave to see the Selwoods in Blyth I could not stay and encourage my husband in his chore. It took hint two hours of careful hammering and nail pulling just to get the shelves and top off the cupboard. The shelves were all dovetailed and nailed from every conceivable angle with about as many nails it would take to make two cupboards. The back was pinned together Sugar and Spice by Bill Smiley Give us a break OK, God. We get the message. We give up. You may stop weeping any time over the silliness of your favorite creation, man. Although at times I'm not so sure it's weeping Youre up to. guess You tried to give us a little warning last winter, when you dumped more than 16 feet of snow on my humble abode. But wayward children that we are, we ignored Your broad hint and went right on sinning the sins of pride and presumption, as we have done through thousands of years of floods and plagues and droughts and famines. So You decided to sock it to us, beginning about the middle of August. The wheat is rotting in the fields. The vegetables lie deep and putrefying in the mud. And the overcast is so bloody low that even the birds are walking. enough, Your Heavenliship. Don't let it rain no more. I've been searching my own soul to sec where I went astray, and for the Me of me can't admit that I've bccn more sinful than usual, to call down Your wrath in the forum of 40 days and nights of rain. Maybe it's nothing drastic, but just a sort of general slip -page over the years, throughout Thy people. Let us now undo our shirts, contemplate our navels, and meditate on our sins, and perhaps You will stop the sluice and turn on the juice. q Personally I've slipped a bit, and I don't deny it. Oh, I haven't lusted after my neighbor's wife, I haven't stolen anything except that pumpkin out of Foster's Farm the other day, as a Hallowe'en treat for my grandsons, and 1 haven't murdered anything larger than a mosquito for years. 1 haven't born false witness, except to the Department of Revenue, which doesn't count. Maybe 1 haven't honored my father and my mother, but there wasn't much point, since they've been with You for years. Well, that takes care, rather roughly, of the Commandments. But what about the Seven Deadly Sins. Maybe that's a horse of a different hue. Let's see. What are they? Oh, yes , I remember what the rector said one day in church. Pale Gas. Now, 1 am not suggesting for one moment that the rector was emitting from pulpit colorless hot air. No, it was his way of remembering the Seven Deadly Sins. This might be useful for my readers, if they are still with me, contemplating their navels and wondering wherein they have erred and are like lost sheep. Wet lost sheep. PALE GAS. P for pride; A for Anger; L for lust; E for Envy; G for Gluttony; A for avarice; S for Sloth. Now if we can just prove that we are scot free on those counts, I don't think, God, that you have any right to go on watering us like so much asparagus. I can vouch for myself, and I'm sure for most of my readers, if 1 deny the first sin, Pride. What is there to be prideful about when you haven't done anything to be proud of? Does it count if you're proud of your kids for coming first in the music festival or growing the bigest squash for the Fall Fair? Anger? No way. Well, maybe a little peevishness, like that litany of damnation hurled at the turkey in the blue Pontiac who tried to cut in front of you in traffic, Or a few barks at the old lady once in a while Mien she presents you with a $60 Tong -distance phone bill. Or a slight scream of rage at the kids when they calmly say they are quitting school and going to Europe to find themselves. But real anger? A firm "no" there. Lust? Most of us over the age of 30 don't even remember what it means. A fi.g for lust. Or a fig -leaf, if you want to be prim about it. Envy? Not a chance. Not among me and my readers, at any rate. Oh, we may turn a little green when we sec someone smarter, more handsome, better dressed, or richer than we, but there is assuredly no envy involved. We enjoy being stupid, ugly, shabby and poor. Gluttony? Out of the question. What do you think we are, pigs? Oh, there might be the odd one of us who has one or two or three over the eight when it comes to drinks. And I did hear that a few of my r•eadrs had to be hoisted from the table to the chesterfield by a block and 'ta ckle after 'thanksgiving dinner. But you'll find a few bad apples in every barrel. And by thciway McIntosh apples are only $6 a bushel this year, and you can get through a bushel, the pair of you, in about three nights before the TV set. - Avarice? Ridiculous! There isn't an avaricious soul in this fine land of ours. Except the doctors, maybe. And the businessmen. And the lawyers and the teachers and the union workers and the dentists and the politicians and the civil servants. But i can't think of one avaricious three-year-old. As for Sloth, you can scratch that one off the Canadian list right now. Migosh, you'd think we were lazy or something. it's common knowledge that the gross national product of this country is only slightly behind that of 14 other developed nations and well ahead of one of them. Lazy bedamned. Well, God, I think you've got Y our signals crossed somewhere, and it's time you stopped wetting on us from a great height. Knock it off. We are beginning to get peed off as well as peed on, and if You aren't careful, we might all go to the Devil. I wonder if the rector was right about the Pale Gas? Maybe the letters stand for: Promiscuous; Asinine; Lazy; Epicurean; Greedy; Apathetic; Silly. Boy, if they do, we're in trouble. And I apologize, God. rather than pegged and was a devil to take apart without splinting the edges. By eleven Sunday night we had navigated the stairs with some tense nxmnments and quickly put the pieces together. With some elbow grease and fresh paint we now have a storage cabinet for sealers. They sure don't put things together like they used to. Furniture today would not last as long as that old cupboard has and it would not have been constructed as sturdily or as intricately. We have had the point carefully pnwen to us by the cupboard. WE wish all our furniture were as sturdily built. A special apology to all of the patient subscribers who have put up with lost or late papers in the past few weeks. Our new addressing stencils are ready and we hope the errors and omissions will be fewer as we get new subscriptions ironed out and duly recorded and all the address changes we have had in the past month.

Youths to be tied Blyth youths who loiter in front of the bank building on the Main street were the subject of complaints to council this week. It was suggested there have been .instances of abusive language and unseemly gestures and even some cases of minor drinking. This, of course, is n of something peculiar to Blyth. It seems that every municipality, at one time or another, h as problems with their youth, some more often than others. If the loitering and whaat accompanies it, is contrary to the law then it is something for the police. It is a different matter however if the hanging around the street results from having nothing else to do. One of the courses open to council then, is to enact a by-law to provide for a curfew that would require any child under a certain age to be off the streets by say 9 or 10 o'clock unless accompanied by an adult. Curfews have been tried in other places but there is the problem of enforcement. Who would enforce such a law and what would a suitable punishment be? Councillors, in considering the problem, wondered if there was a similarity with dogs at Targe requiring control. Without in any way suggesting there is a comparison between canines at Targe and children at large it was recognized however there was an aspect that was common - is the need for direction and control. In the case of dogs the municipality acted. In the case of children the responsibility in the first place is that of the parent. Perhaps there could be some assistance by the provision of facilities wher the youth may meet. After all they can't be expected to stay home all the time. Blyth does not have any serious problem with their young people. If the loitering about which the complaints have been made, is handled with thought and care by those responsible there should continue to be no serious problem. RCMP scandal a game By Keith Roulston The R.C.M.P. Scandal has some people angry, some people shocked, and some people ate indignant. Mc, I'm just confused. Olt I was like the rest of the country, a little stunned to hear our famous R.C.M.P, would get invovled in illegal activities but from there on, I see everything in terms of grey, not an easy black and white. 1 hate to sec police breaking the law, no matter how small the law. I've been irritated over the years by police cruisers that whip along at over the speed limit when they aren't using their siren or flasher and there's obviously no emergency. Yet I can see the side of the po lice in the pmblent of national security too: During World War 2, I wonder how many times the Mounties had to br cak the law to counter the efforts of enemy agents. I can imagine the fnrst•ation I would feel if I were a policeman and the other side was allowed to play without any laws while I had to stick to prescribed regulations, like a hockey game where one team could do anything while the other had to play by the rules. Y et if the bad guys win, we still get upset with the police because they're not doing their job well enough. Civil rights are a very important part of otu• democratic way of life. Civil rights are the one thing that sets our society off from the 0011 -tree countries on both sides of the iron curtain. There are times, however. when pnttecting the rights of 0 handful of individuals (crooks, terrorists, enemy agents) can work against the rights of the citizens as a whole. If you knew, for instance, that 0 man was going to hijack an aircraft and hold 200 people hostage and there was nothing legally that you could do to stop him, would you take illegal action to stop hint? The government has been put in 1110 embarrassing posit ion_of having to defend the R.C.M.P, 011 an unpopular issue. Prince Minister Trudeau has explained some of the extenuating circumstances the Mounties face m trying to protect Canadians from terrorists and politcal unrest and some of his points make sense. Yet there's extreme danger too, in allowing 1110 police to use their own judgment as to when they can take the law into their own hands. Such willful setting aside of the law can grow in use to the point where police disobey the law even in less than essential Cases. I get confused by the Prime Minister because in defending the R.C.M.P., as he must, frons a blanket condemnation that some people appear to be giving the force, he has at times appeared to be condoning their every action, which 1 don't think he docs. Ile ends up sounding like an advocate of 0 police state, an idea given plenty of support by his detractors. In fact ifyou believe the (tints thrown by the Opposition, Trudeau and his cabinet may even have been deeply involved in ordering the R.C.M.P. illegal activities. It would be a sad day if the government was involved, but then atter Watcreate, wouldn't believe a govcrmncnl 001)01)10 hofo 11?w 13ut while .toe Clark and 'riends are plenty ng to self-righteously suggest the government may be involved in the whole mess. They turned livid tvhen the Prime Minister suggested the 'Torics might have planted bugs in their own offices to add fuel to the controversy. If you can he cynical enough to believe the government might be behind the bugging and other hijink, must you not be cynical enough to conisider that the Conservatives might resort to such tricks, especially considering the impeccable timing 4010 discovery and the amateurishness of the equipment? And confused and cynical as I am, why do I think 1 can sec a slight twitching at the corners of the mouths of Mr. Clark and Mr. Broadbent as they solemnly declare how guilty the government is in all this and how it should never have happened? Is it because, I can hear the hack room men of the party rubbing their hands with glee at the possibility of 0 major 50011(101 that will destroy the government and put the Opposition parties in a strong new position? Why is it that in the midst of 0 tclevized debate over such a momentous issue, I kept getting the feefi ng that these were little boys playing games in the House of Commons as they called each other names and tr ie(1 to drown each other out and thumped their desks? '('hese are people we're supposed to respect? And how about my fellows in the press. 1 sense an almost gleeful mood along the reporters as they tell us how horrible 1hewhole situation is. After all these guys have been waiting for more than three years now for our vary own Wat ergate and now they think they have it. The whole affair soniehow just makes me doubt the ethics of everybody involved: the police, the government, the opposition parties and the press. We, the ordinary citizens arc supposed to be taking all this seriously while everybody else seems to be playing their little games with it. Enjoyed hockey New Zealander found Canada different THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 9, 1977 —5 By Debbie Ranney Ilallowc'en and ice hockey were unusual treats for .tenni 1laworth, a 22 year old New Zealand teacher on an Inter- national Farni Youth Exchange with the Junior Fa nners when she visited in R.R.1, Auburn recently. .Icnni who is from Naipukurau, New %eland stayed at the home of Mr. antl Mrs. Leonard Archambault. She w•as amazed to sc0 the amount of cantly that the children got on Hallowe'en which they don't have in New Zealand and described the, game of ice hockey as, "tremendous.,, "I loved it because it's so fast. I've never seen anything like it," she said. .Tenni who belongs to the Young Farmers in Ncw Zealand (the sane as Junior Farmers here) said that Canada and New Zealand aren't really that different. "You have lots of trees and hills and so t10 we," she said. "It's possibly getting a little bit colder than what I'm used to, and it's a little strange to see all the leaves off the trees in October," she added. Since she's been in Canada, Jcnni has been to see the C.N. tower int Toronto and the Royal Ontario museum anti Queens Park Parliannent Buildings. Wh- ile staying at the Archamhulats she was treated to a spaghetti dinner in town, she watt on a tom' of a beef' farm and a dairy farm, visited the Old Mill in Blyth and the Londesboro Public School. .Icnni, w'ho is a Grade Onc teacher in New 'Zealand, said the only real difference she noticed in our schools Compared to theirs w'as that ours had better physical educational facilities.

Visiting Mr. and Mrs. Rae Houston for a few days last week were: Mr. and Mrs. Don Hislop of Children need help A philosophy of prevention should be adopted toward the problems that bring children and parents before juvenile and ctiminal courts. Judge Ross Fair told a large gathering last Tuesday night. 1 -le was speaking at the annual banquet and awards night of the Family and Children's Services of Huron County (formerly the Children's Aid Society) at Pineridge Chalet, near Hensall. ,Judge Fair is a senior provincial court judge in the family division at Kitchener. Many of the county's 150 foster parents were in the audience, as well as employees of the FCS.. Preventive work would forestall the need for much institutional care and many placements in foster homes. "The difficulty is getting money for preventive work", he said. It was easier to obtai for support, protection or institutions. Government personnel were not hardhearted but saw themselves as account- able for money spent. Proving in dollars and cents the need for preventive programs was difficult but necessary. It would save the country literally millions of dollars, while earlier aid would give children and their families a much better chance of straighten- ing out their lives. The judge, who has worked for 11 years in family court, said he always had hope when the parade of children passed him there. Often, the best immediate hope for them was that a good foster home • would be available, If competent, willing foster parents could be found for each of these children, it would greatly reduce the need for institutional help. The number always seemed insufficient. "Foster parents aren't in it for the money", he commented, adding that they take on the role knowing that it requires much giving. It was impossible to measure their contribution, no matter where. "Children's needs are as great in the country as in cities." He defined the competent fost •34 home as one in which compassion and understanding were ext ended to the child. For the first time, a child might learn that there could be discipline without harshness, indifference or abuse. The judge mentioned also the importance of the inter- action between foster -child and children in the foster -home. From them he could (earn much about obligations, love, patience, tolerance, self-control and respect for others' opinions. He could Icarn to accept challenge, seek success and learn also to accept failure gracefully. "We want the child to (earn what life is about", said Judge Fair. "Many of the children the courts encounter have had none of this," There are problems associated with temporary care arrange- ments. The child goes through a crisis while settling down and trying to find his feet in a strange environment. His own parents are often hostile toward hi m as well as toward the judge and the court. The ultimate goal is always to reunite child and family. Foster parents in a sense win by losing. They form attachments for their charges, but know they must eventually return them to their own homes, The Family and Children's Services work with family, as well as child, helping parents gain insights and improve parenting skills. "Most parents have the normal human urge to look after their own children", he said. The children themselves, no matter what the conditions in their own homes, always yearned to return. It vas unfortunately true that youth correctional centres were the only place for some young people. For them, too, the eventual problem centred round return to the community. Recruitment of foster parents for this group was necessary, too. Judge Fair disagreed with those who claimed society was going to the clogs. Most people carry their Toad, don't carp a lot and get their jobs done. it was good, he said, "to get out and be reassured that there is still in every community a solid base of responsible people." The value of foster parents could never be estimated in dollars and cents. "I don't think there is anything I can say by way of thanking you", he t old those in the audience. Their reward carne from the growth, development and improved responses of the children in their care. He concluded with a quotation from Confucius: "It is better to do a kindness near home than to walk a thousand miles to burn incense."

Many tinges the only means of breaking a disease cycle in old horsing facilities is to move the calves to a different environment, sasy Dennis McKnight, lecturer at Kenlptville College of Agricultural Technology (KCAT). Mr. McKnight says outside housing has been used successfully in Michigan and (httarto, (Nen in colder months of the year, 'tests conducted at KCAT used four by four by eight foot plywood hutches placed on well -drained 1a1(1 with the open end away from prevailing winds. Results showed calves in butches performed as well as calves in conventional heated barns. Surprisingly, there was little difference in calf gains and a slight increase in consumption of calf starter. Summer tests proved harder on the hutch calves, primarily because of heat stress. A fall test is now underway. "Hutches appear to have a year-round potential," says Mr. M cKnight, "but this doesn't mean they will work for everyone indefinitely." "Extra labor is required to feed calves outside. Proper sanitation of hutches between calves is as important as it is in traditional horsing." The following procedures should be followed: Move and wash hutches after each calf. Place hutches on well -drained soil. Use a bale of straw for each calf. Place calves in hutch as soon as they are dry after birth. As in any calf rearing program, Mr. McKnight advises producers to start with colostrum, but not to overfeed this milk. Those considering hutch housing are encouraged to visit Kemptville College, about 25 utiles south 0f Ottawa. !ii SEAFORTH - AYR - CAMBRIDGE III NO HIT OR MISS HERE!

Reforestration program limited 'i'hc Huron County Reforestation scheme has had limited success after its first year of existence and a report t0 Huron County Council Friday revealed tart only five land- owners turned over 25 acres of land for reforestation. The plan was implemented at the beginning of the year and basically involves an agreement between the landowner, the nwnicipality the land is in, the wu my and the ministry of natural resources. The ministry provides the manpower and machinery to plant the trees and the costs are paid by the township and county. Half the costs are paid by the county and halt' left to the responsibility of the township. The townships can choose whether to pay their half themselves or pay a quarter of the wsts leaving the remainder for the landowner. Marvin Smith from the Winghan office of the ministry of natural resources told council 21,000 trees had been planted under the scheme and that the wunty share of the costs was $1,370. He broke the expenses down to great detail showing that for the nursery stock. The total costs for the planting were $2,216. Mr. Snaith reported that 2,000 trees were planted on a four acre parcel in Ashfield township, 5,000 trees in six acres in the county portion covered half the planting costs, repairs to the planting machinery and the costs Goderich township, 4,000 trees 00 five acres in 11ullet1 township and 10,000 on 10 acres in East Wawanosh. Two types of trees were planted according to the reports which showed that 17,000 white pine trees were used and 4,000 red maple. The project requires consenting landowners to turn over their land for reforestation under a 20 -year agreement. Once the owner agrees to have the trees planted, the prop erty is protected for reforestation for two decades. The agreement prevents the owner from harvesting the trees or from cutting them down before they are mature. According to Smith after the 20 years have expired the county tree .cutting bylaw protects Londesboro (Continued from Page 7) granddaughter.

Tourism promotes county employment Huron County has to promote tourism and more industry if it wants to create needed employ- ment in the county and a fresh source of money to complement the county's agricultural base. Huron County development officer, Spence Cummings told county council Friday that Huron has not escaped the current slump in the national economy nor the national unemployment pp►blenl. Mr. Cummings told council that the closing of three businesses in the county combined with no new industry locating in Huron has put 1,500 people out of work. Ile said that three firms, 'I•extral Fibres of Goderich, G & F Farm Machinery in Exeter and Huron Aorusties of Voltam ra, had closed their doors recently and no new business had arrived to replace them. He said the county already has 1,500 people out of work and jobs were needed for those unemployed and for people conning into the work force in the county in the coaling year. He said the jobs were for people who are residents of Huron County and were not involved in agri- culture. Mr. Cummings explained that Huron County has an economic base in agriculture and that the agricultural economy is fairly constant. He said the realized that weather conditions had a great deal to do with agricultural economy but he pointed out that 1I►e county needed a fresh source oI' money to complement agri- culture. Ile said the two prime arras that money could be formes ware manufacturing and tourism. Mr. Cummings said the development committee had been working steadily to encourage industry to locate in Huron but had net some obstacles due plainly to a slumping economy. Ile said many industries were staying where they were and not expanding and in fact were just trying to make it through the year. He said three firths were planning to locate in Huron, one in Exeter and two in Va naStr'a, but he had no definite report on how many people they would employ. He added that oil OXFAM People to People Development Send Your Contributions to: BOX 18,000 TORONTO HALIFAX OTTAWA ST.

The development officer said that one arca that the county could promote itself was tourism. 1 -lc said that tourism in Ontario is big business and employs about I65,000 people turning an annual revenue of 52.6 billion. He said it is hard to estimate Duron County's share of the revenue but pointed out that it is significant. Mr. Cummings referred to a recent survey done at the nearest United States entry point, Sarnia. He said that the survey shows that travellers coming through that point spent 519 Million in a Tourist season and that 48 percent of the tourists are from the United States. 1 -le said that the promotion of that source of money for the economy and the jobs it creates is important for Huron County. He said the county should take steps to encourage tourism by establi- shing new facilities and by advertising itself in newspapers, radio and television.

Now this proves to be very frustrating to my wife, who likes to mix a little of this and add a dash of that when she's cooking. Some things I just won't eat because I just don't think they'll taste good. With some f(x)ds I've macre up my mind not to like them before a fork -full reaches my mouth. Does this seem silly to you?.. Well what is even mor ridiculous are those who say they don't like Christianity when they haven't eVell tried it. The Bible says: "Taste and sec that the Lord is good." Nov some will say, 'But I went to church, or Sunday School, and l got turned off.' This may be true; there are always those who try to shame others into church, or whose hypocrisy is poor advertisement for Christ. People can get turned off by a certain church, or minister, or approach to religion; hut you cant get turned off by Jesus. For He alone gives true purpose to life, and meaning to death. And is this not what we are all searching for? .Jesus says: "I have conte that you alight have life, and that you might have it in abundance." The Church is not trying to sell you something you don't need or Want .The Lord wants to set us free from insecurity. guilt, meaninglessness. He stands knocking at the door of your heart; if you will but open the door He will come into your life and brie you life, love, joy, peace, meaning, purpose ...
