Fire destroys factory
Fire destroyed the old Blyth Cheese
factory early Saturday morning. Damages
are not yet totalled and fire authorities have
not determined if there was any insurance on
the antique cars and trucks which were
stored in the building.
The fire was reported at 3:30 a.m.
Saturday. Blyth volunteer firemen answered
the call and had the fire out in less than two
hours, However, they were unable to save
the building.
The building's owners Frank Moore, of
Wingham is 'ip the United States and was
unavailable for comment.
Monday the back wall was broken through
and some of the vehicles were pulled out. A
Model A roadster that has been completely
restored was 'relatively unharmed but the
five other vehicles suffered from the fire.
The cause of the blaze is still under
investigation by the Ontario Fire Marshall's
office but investigator D.A. Reid indicated
the probable cause was electrical.
Firemen were on call for the next 24 hours
for spot fires in the rubble. Blyth PUC were
called to the fire to disconnect hydro
from the building and to be prepared to help
if the main feeder line to the village became
endangered. The line was ten feet from the
fire.
Insurance on the building was $35,000 but
there has been no indication that there was
insurance on the contents.
The Blyth co-operative Cheese Factory
was the result of the old radio forum
meetings held at farmers homes,
An issue of the Blyth Standard dated July
4, 1945 talks about the opening of the
Cheese Factory.
"All the long, tedious work of planning
and organizing the Cheese Factory which
will be operated under the name of the Blyth
Farmers Co -Operative Association is
practically over and on Tuesday morning,
the Manager Mr. C.E. Hodgins, and his
assistants, Mr. Walter Buttell, Mr. James
Lawrie and Mr. Bert Marsh commenced the
work of cheese -making, as the patrons sent
their milk in, some by truck and others
delivering it to the factory personally.
When the old planning mill was purchased
they m oved its equipment into an adjoining
buildingioperating that one as well.
In 1952 a fire destroyed a large portion of
the factory and equipment.
In January of 1953, a meeting was called
and the shareholders of the factory voted in
favour of rebuilding the industry. The
company went on for a few years after this
but found that their competitors could pay
10 to 15 cents a 100 more for milk than they
could so their business started to decline.
In order t9 protect their shareholders they
thought they'd better sell out so they did, to
the UCO in Toronto, Gay Lea Dairy
processing took over the plant for a while
after than but then decided to move
everything to Guelph.

House fire
in Hullett

An abandoned house south
of Blyth was destroyed by
fire Friday morning. The
Blyth fire department saved
the barn to the west of the
house by keeping it watered

sparks and heat to the barn
only a few yards away from
the house.
The farm had been
abandoned for 10 to 15 years
and had no hydro hookup.

checked his cattle in the field

before and had not noticed
anything wrong with the

today.
Last year Blyth had some major expenses
which included a new tractor and a deficit
from the storm sewer construction,
The increase seems greater this year but
Blyth taxayers did receive a decrease in
taxes last year which makes the increase this
year that much greater. The increase is only
6.5 per cent over two years.
The 1979 residential rate has been
increased by 3.47 mills and the 1979
commercial rate by 4.08 mills, For com-
parison, the 1977 surplus reduced the 1978
residential rate by 10.50 mills and the 1978
commercial rate by 12.35 mills.
Council also put $10,000 in the reserve
fund. No provision has been made in the
budget for increasing or decreasing the
reserve for working funds.
The budget for 1979 includes a decrease in
funds for storm sewer construction. Last
year $26,324. was spent and the budget
allows $10,000 for this year.
Education costs have gone up and the
budget allows for an increase of $12,000 for

From the Minister's Study
BY REV. WAYNE F. Goon
These past weeks 1 have
been planting my vegetable
garden. I am looking forward
to harvesting some
vegetables that we will be
able to enjoy at our meals
this winter, If the weather
conditions are favorable 1
Preparing for fall harvest
expecttoreap a good harvest.
There are several factors that
if followed I shou Id have a
good crop of vegetables to
eat. Soil condition, good
seeds, and the care which 1
give it throughout the
summer will determine what
i will harvest in the fall.
The same is true in the
moral and spiritual sense.
"Be not deceived God is not
mocked; whatsoever a man
soweth that shall he also
reap. For he that soweth to
the flesh shall of the flesh
reap corruption; but he that
sowcth to the spirit shall of
the spirit reap everlasting
life. Gal 6: 7,8.
Everyone of us are sowing.
Either to the flesh or to the
Spirit. Some people arc
heard to say, '' They are
sowing their wild oats",
Doing one's own way is sin.
"For to be carnally minded is
death; but to be spiritually
minded is life and peace.
Becaus a the carnal mind is
enmity against God; for it is
not subject to the law of God,
neither indeed can be. So
then they that are in the flesh
cannot please God." Romans8
6-8, To continue in sin is to
eventually experience God's
judgment.
To sow to the spirit is to
reap everlasting life, They
that "Sow in tears," shall
"reap in joy". The truly born
again believer will ex -

CLINTON
from Me to You
BY RHEA HAMILTON
Well it's finally happened.
After threatening to get a
new vehicle to tear around
the county in, I finally com-
mitted myself to four years of
debt and bought a new car.
THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 6, 1979 — 3:
Power in forfour wheels
Now the Datsun t'ruck was
always handy to carry all
sorts of treasures to and from
home in and the first thing I
looked at was another truck.
But the major bulky
iconstruction at home is
VINTAGE MODELS — A number of antique
cars were damaged or destroyed in the cheese
factory fire early Saturdayimorning.
(Standard Photo)
almost finished and I really
wanted to spoil myself by
driving a car instead.
So we compromised and
bought a small four cylinder
station wagon. And get this -it
is four wheel drive. There
will be no more fretting on
these winter evenings
coming home from meetings
when the snow is howling
around my ears.
For" a test drive we took
Klaus parents to the gravel
pit down the road from them
and decided to see just how
good the silver bomb is. We
quickly spied a steep
gravelled slope slightly
grassed over. I must admit
here that Klaus was at the
wheel or otherwise I may
have chickened out and
tackled a less intimidating
slope. Up we went and out
all the windows all we could
scewassky. We had not even
checked the top to see if it
was big enough for the car or
if it went straight down the
other side.
Well there were a few
rumbles from the back seat
PULLED OUT OF DEBRIS — These two old trucks were pulled out of the
burnt cheese factory Monday afternoon. Owner Frank Moore, Wingham
had purchased the building and was using it to repair and store antique
cars and trucks. The fire early Saturday morning is believed to be caused
by electrical wiring. It is still under investigation.
(Standard Photo)
about walking up and ruining
new cars before they are 24
hours old. But to the top we
went with no hesitation on
the part of the car. We were
on the top long enough to see
the trail veer to the right and
down it we dashed and along
the edge of the pit and up the
other side and along the top
and back down again.
It handled well and put out
enough power to do the job.
The car is one a new series
on the market made in Japan
that is sweeping across
Canada. There are only 43
Idcalers in Ontario alone. We
both didsome reading up on
the models and discoverd
that the various authorities
rated them up with the best.
It is no nice to ride to and
from work in comfortable
bucket seats.
There is a draw back and
for many it would be a minor
detail but it makes me
uneasy. You see there is a
clock right in front of my
nose and it makes me
shudder to think that now
there is no excuse for not
knowing the time. Klaus will
no longer accept the excuse
that "I didn't know what
time it was".
Another feature is that the
power is in the front wheels
like VW Rabbits. Again., it
will be interesting to seehow
it manages snow drifts over
the bumper in our lane this
winter.
Of course if you have not
guessed by now I am
anxiously awaiting winter to
try out the new car. But by
then it will be fully broken in
and I will regret ever wishing
for snow. But right now I
would not mind tackling a
snowy lane to see how she
works. Just once, though.
In case you are wondering
what this beast is called it is
Subaru and is pronounced
SuBurru. Try it with a
Japanese accent and you will
hit it right on the nailhead.

Grey power
For those who despaired of the constant fawning on and attention
paid by merchandisers to youth during the past ten or so years - those
who were sidelined because their maturity prevented them from
participating - it seems a new day is here.
At long last, those who are no longer considered teenagers, or in the
youth bracket, are about to come into their own. One impressive
statistical note says it all. One-third of all Canadian adults are now
more than 50 years old, and their numbers are growing in relative and
absolute terms. Statistics Canada estimates that the over -50
population will total more than 2.6 million by the end of this century.
What's more, this age group controls more than 30 per cent of the
disposable income in Canada. They often own their own homes, travel
more frequently and spend more on consumer goods and services.
Retailers are just now becoming aware of this market.
It is unfortunate that the worth of those with graying tops has to be
recognized initially for the monetary impact but perhaps this
break -through will lead to the discovery that the not -so -young have
more going for them than dollar muscle.
For the present, it is interesting to note that a consumer show and
conference - billed as "the world of action and opportunity for people
over 50" - is to be held at the Queen Elizabeth Building in Toronto
from June 7 to 10. It is probably the first of its kind and between
100,000 and 150,000 people are expected to attend.
People will be able to shop for everything from hearing aids to estate
planning service, from new business opportunities to retirement
properties. And so it goes. The age of gray hair is dawning. There is
just one black cloud on the horizon. Given the known ingenuity of
youth, who will do the policing to assure that under -50's wearing gray
wigs do not infiltrate the affair in the hope of sharing in the glory of
being a member of the gray power movement?

To the editor
Plan is for discussion
To the Residents of the Village of Blyth
On behalf of the Blyth Village Council I am
pleased to present to you, for discussion
purposes, a draft of the Secondary Plan for
our Village.
At the outset I should state that the
purpose of this draft plan is to stimulate
discussion and comments so that the Council
can consider any changes before finalizing
the SecondaryPlan,
This draft plan was prepared after several
meetings and a great deal of assistance from
Village residents. It suggests directions we
should be taking to guide change, growth
and development of our community in the
years to come. Your Council believes it is
important to plan so that the opportunities
that we enjoy today are preserved and
enhanced in the future,
I would ask you to study this draft plan
and invite you to attend a public meeting on
Monday, June l lth,1979, at 7:30 p.m. at the
Blyth and District Community Centre
Auditorium. We want to hear your
comments, opinions and suggestions on this
proposal.
I look forward to seeing you at this
important meeting.
Yours truly
Donald J. Noble

On rainy days in the spring you might be tempted to use
your barbecue in the garage or porch. Don't do it you could

Behind the Scenes
The nuclear protests
BY KEITH ROULSTON
Around the world this weekend, thous-
ands of people were out protesting the
continued use and growth of nuclear
power.
They were the biggest demonstrations
since the days of the anti -war protests
when the United States was involved in
Vietnam and many people noted the
similarities. Even some of the old slogan
were revamped to serve the new cause,
"Hell no we won't go" became "Hell no,
we won't glow " and so on.
Are we in for another turbulent time like
the Vietnam protest years? Well it's
perhaps too early to tell, The current
protests may swell as they did in the
Vietnam years or they may slowly die out
as the memory of Pennsylvania nuclear
accident recedes and the film, the China
Syndrome dies at the box office. The
potential for growth is certainly there,
perhaps even more so than with the
Vietnam years because it's a worldwide
problem. During the Vietnam years Can-
adian activists felt left on the sidelines
because we really weren't involved in the
fight. We are in this one as are the British
and the Japanese and the people of nearly
every industrialized country in the world.
This protest though is different. The
fatalities of the Vietnam war were very
real. People could see the bodies every
night on the television news, The issue this
time is much trickier. There are no bodies
to, be seen, only the fear that someday
there may be more bodies than in Vietnam.
As usual the protests bring a polarization
of opinion that leave many ordinary
citizens left not knowing what to believe.
There's a certain distrust on one hand of
the overt activists, people who seem to be
waiting for some cause or other so they can
get out their plac cards and march in a
picket line. On the other hand there's a•
huge distruct of government and utility
officials. One would be hard pressed to find
anyone around here who believes that
Ontario Hydro tell the whole truth about its
activities. According to Hydro officials,
everything is always hunky dory even when
it appears anything but. Two men get an
overdose of radiation at the Bruce plant
and hydro assures us that everything is all
right. Heavy water is released into public
waterways and Hydro assures us there is
no danger. It's that kind of "assurances"
that could make the protests grow and
grow.
Behind all the protests I think is the fear
on the part of ordinary people that the
world has been seized by a technology that
is out of control. This isn't just involved in
the fear of nuclear power but in the use of
additives in foods, the use of chemicals to
control every kind of pest whether insect,
animal or vegetable and a dozen other
areas where people are concerned today.
There's a whole new industry in catering to
those fears from "natural" food stores to
magazines like Harrowsmith that cater to
the people who want an alternate lifestyle.
Somewhere along the way our view of
technology has changed, People who came
to this country lived about as natural a
lifestyle as there was,They had to struggle
against nature with very few aids. For
them the coming of technology was a
blessing. A scythe was an improvement
over a sickle, a binder a huge step over the
scythe and so on, The inventions that
revolutionized the world at the end of the
last century were looked on as blessing
from God,
Probably there were those in that age
who shook their heads and wondered what
the world was coming toy but for the most
part, people looked forward to the changes,
changes that freed them from the drugery
of their work. While the mechanical
changes were coming research in chem-
istry was also going on, research that
provided new drugs to save lives.
People came to accept all these changes
as progress. For a long time itwasprogress,
something that really improved the lives of
the people. Through the 1950's and into
the 1960's there were few doubts that each
new scientific breakthrough was of benefit
to us all.
It was in the 1960's and 1970's however
when some people began to realize that
every change wasn't necessarily progress.
We got so hooked on change that we got
carried away. Science was the glamour
subject of education, particularly after the
Russians launched their first satellite and
the race to the moon was on. We
constructed huge research facilities filled
with scientists bent on inventing, even if
we didn't really need the inventions. And
of course once the inventions were made,
there were executives and salesmen dedi-
cated on selling the invention even if
people didn't really need it and public
relations men whose goal was to explain
away any doubts might be developed.
Hopefully what will come out of the
current doubts is a new realistic age, an
age where we realize that technology is not
a bad thing but must be used carefully. It
must once again be made the servant of the
people, not the master. We must get to the
stage of saying "Well, do we really need
that new chemical or electronic gadget?" If
through all these protests and fears we can
reach that age of common sense, then it
will all have been worth it.
100 compete in 2nd
old tyme festival

charges against Hill dropped
Charges against Cayley
Hill, a Goderich business-
man and former trustee on
the Huron County board of
education, were dropped in
provincial court recently due
to lack of evidence.
Mr. Hill, 52, was accused
of fraudulently taking
$25,000 in travellers cheques
August 25, 1975 from
Champion Road Machinery
Ltd. of Goderich where he
was employed for 20 years
before going into business on
his own,
The money was part of a
$75,000 payment a private
agent in Turkey was to
receive for his efforts to sell
several million dollars worth
of Champion machinery to
the Turkish government.
Questions about the
$25,000 were raised last year
when Revenue Canada was
reviewing the company's
books last year, Mr, Hill was
charged with fraud last
December following the
government agency's
investigation by Crown
Attorney Garry Hunter.
Judge C.E. Perkins ruled

that he could not see any Champion Road Machinery

Huron marine museum
The cabin and the wheel -
hr use from the Shelter Bay,
now used by its owner the
Goderich Elevator and Tran-
sit Co. as a storage barge in
Goderich harbor, could be
moving to Huron County
Pioneer Museum if Ray
Scotchmer, the museum cur-
ator, can find enough money.
The property committee
chairman, Reeve D.R.
McGregor, told county
council in Goderich Thursday
the Shelter Bay components
are a gift but the moving will
be expensive.
Lackie Bros. Limited of
Kitchener say that for $8,170
they will remove the 50 ton
cabin and wheelhouse from
the harbor to the museum
grounds. But that's just the
beginning.
Scotchmer estimates it will
take another $4,000 or $5,000
to facilitate the move by
hiring crews to move wires
and other obstacles in the
way, and to build a proper
display for the exhibit,
The curator told county
council he has had many
queries concerning the
reason the Goderich-located
museum doesn't have a
marine section. Since Goder-
ich is a port, it would seem
only fitting, Scotchmer said.
Now that the cabin and
wheelhouse from the Shelter
Bay are available, a marine
museum seems a more likely
possibility ...but the neces-
sary money just isn't in the
budget at the moment.
"The best place for a boat
is in the water," said Reeve
Grant Stirling, "and I'd
leave it there."
No action was taken on the
matter until further details
can be obtained.
In other business, the
property committee granted
the contract for caretakers'
uniforms to Campbell's
Men's Wear in Clinton for
$516,81; granted the tender
for replacement of the Reg-
istry Office roof to Exeter
Roofing and Sheet Metal Co.
Ltd. for $4,445; and
approved the tender of R.J.
Lawric of Blyth for $5,680 for
painting the court house
windows. Lawrie's was the
only bid.
Two quotations for steel to
replace the first section of
the steps at Dunlop's Tomb
were each over $1,300. The

UCW clear $1,142.34 at sale
President Mary Lou Henry
chaired the May meeting of
the Evening Unit of the
U.C.W. last Wednesday
evening. Reports were given
on the garage sale which
netted the group $1,142,34,
and of that amount $550,00
was voted to be turned over
to the General U.C.W. for
this unit's share of allocation
and general expenses.
This unit had sponsored
the. Sellwoods and absorbed
the deficit of $35.21 of costs
over receipts. It was agreed
that a Gospel singing group
be engaged tor next year
again, for the last Sunday in
May if possible, and if at that
time, the music is too loud, a
request will be made to have
amplifiers turned down, It is
regretted that it wasn't done
this year. June 24th was the
date set for the annual
Family Picnic, All members,
together with their families,
will gather at the church at 1

and includes a "craft" chair-

welcomed by the group
throughout the year, as well
as other odds and ends this
group can use to make
saleable craft items.
Mildred Ament and
Sharon Wittich were in
charge of devotions for this
meeting, and Joan Clark
gave a very informative talk,
with slide presentation, on
the work of the Jack Reavie
opportunity workshop in
Wingham. Everyone now has
a much clearer idea of all that
is accomplished there, and a
$50. donation was made to
the workshop.
Pentecost Sunday was
celebrated at Blyth United
Church on June 3rd when
John Sanderson, Fred
Howson, Bill Howson and
Dick Poore shared the duties
of welcoming worshippers,
ushering and receiving the
offering. All were pleased to
listen to the chimes again,
and to sing some real old
gospel songs as well as a new
one, during the opening
hymn sing led by Mrs,
Wittich. The choral anthem
was "His Sheep Am 1."

Leche League now 10 years old
The La Leche League in
Canada was started ten years
ago. It has grown from two
groups to 300 groups, with
500 active leaders, Each
group is responsible for a
small area in order to main-
tain mother -to -mother con-
tact. The group in Huron
County began two years ago
and celebrates its second
anniversary in June, with
Janis Bisback as leader, Mrs.
Bisback has a busy life,
within the League, holding
meetings, speaking to organ-
izations and students, writ-
ing letters, and telephone
counselling, all done as vol-
unteer work. She ana ner
husband believe in the ideals
of the La Leche League as a
means of striving towards
good mothering and closely -
knit families. Each La Leche
group holds a series of four
meetings throughout the
year, covering the topics:
Advantages of Breastfeeding,
Art of Breastfeeding and
Overcoming Difficulties, The
Family and the Breastfeed-
ing Baby, and Nutrition and
Weaning. Mothers are wel-
coApt to come to a meeting or
series.
The May meeting of the
Huron County La Leche
League was held in Goderich
This was the fourth topic in
the series -"Nutrition and
Weaning" and was com-
bined with a couples' meet-
ing. Mrs. Bisback thanked
Mrs. D. Rutter for hosting
the spring series. Plans were
made for the summer series
with meetings in Exeter
beginning June 13th, at the
home of Mrs, R. Graham,
The fathers were welcome
to the meeting. Mention was
made of the philosophy be-
hind the League in relation to
mothers and fathers who
make sincere committments
to family life while they are
parenting. It was empha-
sized that each parent may
take out of LLL philosophy
only those ideas which fit
their own family situation.
The fathers then met to-
gether for a discussion on
their involvement in raising
infants and family life,
The mothers emphasized
the importance of good nut-
rition for the entire family.
They were conscious of a
healthy diet beginning with
pregnancy, while nursing,
and by preparation of bal-
anced meals for the whole
family. Many households fol-
lowed the Canada Food
Guide, Everyone agreed that
the availability of nutritious
snacks was an advantage,
especially when toddlers hit
a fussy stage in eating or go
on food binges. It was felt
that a variety of food was the
key to good nutrition, Recipe
ideas were exchanged, some
obtained from "Mothers in
the Kitchen", a cookbook
prepared by League mothers
in the States,
The mothers and fathers
then met for refreshments
and a social hour.

age all received from the
conference was that we are to
take the church out of the
buildings to all areas of life.
Mr. Wittich chose Script-
ure from Acts 2:1-13, and his
text for his sermon "Filled
with the Spirit" was Ephes-
ians 5:18.
He explained
"Speaking in Tongues" and

Blyth will not be getting its
own sweeping machine for
the streets council decided
Monday night, Jack Shaw of
Wingham has been taking
care of the streets
sporadically and due to
relocation of his job has to
sell his sweeper,
Councillors Albert Wasson
and Bill Howson checked the
machine and indicated that it
was in sound condition.
"The machine is worth the
money ($3,500) but can we
make it pay?" asked
councillor Howson,
Council discussed the
possibilities of renting out
`the machine but Wingham
has just purchased a new
$40,000 sweeper and council
agreed that if the sewers
were to start construction
next year even Blyth may not
need it for some time.
Council agreed to hire a
street sweeper as opposed to
buying one,
Council was notified of an
increase in the library rent of
$160 per year. Council will
now pay $55 per month.
The Ministry of Culture
and Recrea tion notified
council of a grant to the Blyth
Centre for the Arts. The
$1,540 will be for the hiring
of summer help under the
Summer Youth Employment
Program. The funds come
through the village office.
The Blyth Bank of
Commerce has a new method
of calculating interest based
on a monthly average instead
of monthly minimum.
Blyth Horticultural Society
thanked council for the $400
donation. The money has
been put towards planting
flowers in the village beds.
More plants were put in at
the Senior Citizens
apartments.
Council approved a move
to proclaim June 25 to July 1
Canada Week.Senior
citizens week was also
recommended and the date
June 17 to June 23 will be set
aside in recognition of the
contribution Seniors make to
Canadian communities.
A request for $100 from
the Ontario Livestock
Protection ,is`ociation to
carry out their program for
posting notices concerning
the theft of livestock and
penalties was filed. Council
agreed it was more of a
township matter,
A petition for funds for the
Fields Springer Disaster
fund was fi1pr
Draft agreements for the
new subdivision north of
Blyth were issued to council
and will be discussed at the
next regular meeting. By
that time the clerk hopes to
have both the county and the
solicitors reccomendations
available,
Drains were on the agenda
again this month. The water
problem behind Bill Elliott's
and the old Station house
was looked into by councillor
Wasson who recommended
that the matter he left up to
the property onwers
involved. The owners still
maintain that part of the
water problem is the
village's. Council agreed to
have the owners fix the
problem and if they can
determine what percentage
is village water then they are
to bill Blyth for that portion.
Council briefs
Council decided to do more
upkeep on the drain behind
Charlie Smith's rather than
redo the whole job.
Surveyors for Burns Ross
Engineering were in the
village this past week making
ready for the storm sewer
proposed for Dinsley street,
More information will be
available at the next meeting
for council.
Council had a request from
Luella McGowan to clean up
the village strip of land
directly behind her house. If
reseeded she would take care
of the upkeep. At present the
village cuts the weeds along
the road allowance which is
now grassed in,
Council agreed to look into
the situation.
Councillor Bill Howson
recommended that the dog
catcher be encouraged to
take care of more dogs,
remarking onthe number of
dogs -running loose in the
village.

rationale for using these books." -
A more detailed account of the board
meeting will occur in next week's Blyth
Seafortn English department. The English Standard .
The Huron County Board of Education
approved an additional 22 books for use in
county schools Monday night despite
attempts by the Concerned Citizens' Group
to delay the action,
The group,which claims to represent a
majority of the county's parents, had wanted
theboard to delay voting on the books until all
the trustees read the books and had a chance
to meet with the citizens' group to discuss
differences and come to a mutual
understanding.
A 15 -member delegation from the group
asked that the board ensure the books they
approved were in keeping of the Judeo-
Christian ethics of the arca.
One hook the group expressed concern
about was the Chocolate Soldier by Robert
C'ormicr, which was recommended by the
THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 6, 1979 — 13
ALL SET TO GO -- Now where is the ride? Grade eight students were
packed and ready to go early Thursday morning for a campning trip. The
students camped one night and returned the next day.
The Huron Cottnty Library Local kids c a n go tp camp
headquarters will he proving
from its present cramped
quarters on Lighthouse
Street in Goderich to its
spacious new premises
around the corner on Water-
loo Street but not until
renovations arc complete.
The new facility is the
former Bethel Pentecostal
Tabernacle and will become
the possession of the county
on July 5, 1979. The Bethel
congregation is presently
building a new worship
centre and according to
county clerk Bill Hanly, will
probably rent their present
church building back from
the county until the new one
is complete this fall,
Hanly explained that some
renovations are necessary to
bring the building up to
necessary standards for a
publ'c facility. sire regu-
latio is will require the great-
est changes and halls will
have to be widened.
The county clerk also said
there will need to be ramps
built for easy loading and
unloading of books which are
to be stored in the lower level
of the building, That portion
of the building will also have
to be protected against
dampness, Hanly said.
The cost of the building
was $70,000, There is no
estimate of the cost of the
renovations, although Chief
Librarian Bill Partridge felt
the price could be higher
than some board members
expect.
"I'm afraid it will cost
more than $10,000," said
Partridge, "but I feel if we
can move into the building
for • $100,000 it is still a
bargain."
The county has engaged
Snider, Richard and March
of Waterloo to investigate
and make reconintcndations
with regard to the rend•
vations at the new building.
There are 28 branches in
the Huron County Library
system now in its 12th year of
operation. Circulation last
year was 367,093, well up
over 1977.

Family and Children's Ser-
vices of Huron County
(FACS) have announced
plans for the 1979 Sumner
Program.
The program will be off-
ered to any children living in
the County and is totally
supported by donations from
local organizations and indiv-
iduals. Last year the Agency
sent 100 needy children to
summer camp.
This year the Agency
expects even greater de-
mands on the program. In
addition to the camp pro-
gram, the Agency will be
planning day trips for child-
ren, and involving volunteer
efforts of local high school
students. John Penn, Direct•
or, said, "A donation of 540.
will ensure a place for a child
at camp this year, and we
hope to raise about $4,000."
- FACS would be pleased to
hear from anyone willing to
help with this program. For
more information, phone

Burn or bury? County debates garbage
BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER
Huron County is buying
37,500 book matches as an
advertising giveaway but if
some members of Huron
County had their way, the
matches would be used to
light garbage fires.
At the invitation of the
Htiron County Federation of
Agriculture, several mem-
bers of Huron County's
development committee
attended a meeting of the
Oxford County Federation of
Agriculture on the garbage
disposal dilemma,
Reeve John Flannery who
was at the Norwich meeting
said the landfill versus incin-
eration argument continues,
but that environment offic-
ials still prefer the landfill
method for disposing of gar-
bage.
"I know there are some
who don't like it, but smoke
goes up and nobody bothers
about it up there," said
Reeve Simon Hallahan.
Reeve Ervin Sillery said he
agreed with Hallahan. Sillery
said this province is going to
run out of land for garbage
disposal "in no time flat."
Sillery predicted that
government here will have to
slacken its controls on burn-
ing garbage, and added that
in the United States and in
Europe, burning is preferred
over landfill sites.
Flannery told council rec-
ent problems such as meth-
ane gas in former landfill
sites are worrying some offic-
ials. He said the persons who
dump the garbage are con-
sidered responsible for what
they discard, but noted this
was not always enough pro-
tection.
But Reeve Allan Campbell ,
didn't seem too concerned
about the garbage issue. He
was more interested in the
purchase of 37,500 books of
matches.
"What are you going to do
with them, with smoking
going out?" asked Campbell.
Campbell was told the
county usually purchases
35,000 books of matches at a
time, and it represents a
supply for three or four
years.
In other business, the
development committee
reminded all councillors of a
farm woodlot management
seminar to be held in the
Legion Hall at Wingham on
June 9. Development com-
mittee Chairman Murray
Dawson said proper manage-
ment of wood lots can result
in tremendous financial
advantage for owners.
HEALTH
Chairman of the Huron
County Board of Health,
Reeve Eileen Palmer of
Goderich, said that while the
annual report of the Huron
County Health Unit is avail-
able to any member of
council who requests it, the
document wasn't produced
in quantity this year.
"It was considered an
unnecessary expense," said
Reeve Palmer,
The May report of the
board of health to council
also noted the committee will
be investigating the apparent
increased workload of hosp-
ital liaison nurses in Huron
County because of the recent
hospital bed closings.
Reeve Palmer said the
problem for county health
nurses is more visible in
Clinton were there is a heavy
demand for placements in
nursing homes, private home
making and home care,
More babies are being
delivered in Huron County
hospitals, too, Reeve Palmer
reported, which involves
Huron County health nurses
in in-hospital and follow-up
isits.
PLANNING BOARD
Huron County Council has
authorized the planning
board to look into hiring or
contracting an additional
staff member to work on
1 zoning bylaws. This staff
member would be a junior
person, according to plan-
ning director Gary Davidson,
Davidson said the plan-
ning department has been
working on secondary plans
but the zoning bylaws arc
just not getting done.
"Municipalities that have
had their secondary plans
done for some time are
finding it more and more
difficult to implement those
plans without the zoning
bylaws," said Davidson,
An extra body was re-
quested last year by the
planning department for the
purpose of doing zoning by-
laws but that request was
turned down by county
council.
DEPT. HEADS
Huron County's depart-
ment heads will have the
opportunity this June to
attend the annual council day
at the University of Western
Ontario, but not all of Huron
County Council's members
thought it was a good idea.
In a show of hands,
councillors voted 16-13 in
favor of giving department
heads a half day off on June

Reeve Simon Hallahan

"double up work the next

Reeve Grant Stirling spoke
in opposition.

20 - THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 6, 1979
PRESENTATION MADE -At the recent reception by the North Huron
Masons honouring Robert Davies, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge
A.F. and A.M., Harold Vodden of Blyth presented the gift. Mr. Davies
received a hand crafted stool made by Mr. Vodden with a copy of
'Forward,' a book written by Harold Vodden and his son. Mr. Vodden is a
past District Deputy Grand Master and received help from the Masons in
obtaining his first leader dog. The Mason also presented Mr. Davies with
a large sheepskin rug representing the leather works in the area. The
Masons are a fraternal organization and raise funds among themselves
for worthwhile causes. Their present project concerns raising funds for
medical research into deafness caused by nervous disorders. Harold
Vodden right is making the presentation to Robert Davies (left). Holding
the gift behind is Ted East.
Blyth homes reassessed
Homeowners in Blyth may look forward
oto having their homes reassessed and a
change in taxes if the survey council has
called for meets witf; their approval. At
council Monday night CIer!; Larry Walsh and
councillor Helen Go%'i ig reported on a
meeting they attended in Clinton which
covered the topic of unfair assessment,
Speaker Jack Lettner, director of
assessment for the local arca, explained
that there is a lot of unfair assessment in
some of the villages, towns and cities across
the provinces. He pointed out that new
homes are often assessed higher than fully
renovated older homes.
Council passed a resolution to request the
survey be clone under section 86 of the
assessment act. This en ablcs Ontario
assessment office to do a survey and present
it to council in 90 days,
The new assessment will not give the
village greater funding, If the village worked
on a million dollar budget today the change
in the assessment would not increase it. The
only change would be that some property tax
payers would be paying more and others
Tess. Emp ty lots would be assessed more,
Council agreed that some of the homes in
Blyth are not assessed accurately and a
study would better equalize taxes.
The study is divided into live catergories
and most of the work is already done. Mr.
Lettner said the province has a lot of this
material on record now and only is waiting
for municipalities to request it.
Council is not required to accept the study
once it is presented.

Blyth and District
Community Centre
Auditorium
Plan goes to public
(Continued from Page 1)
figures be based on a 1 in 100 year mapping.
The first map was based on the 1954 flooding
caused by Hurricane Hazel.
At a later meeting, May 15, council agreed
to present the plan to the public at a meeting
Monday June 11.
The plan notes that Blyth being !coated
between two larger centres will never grow
much more than an anticipated 1,300. It wil
serve as a secondary service centre and
should capitalize more on the annual flow of
tourists drawn to the municipality to attend
the theatre and leather mills,
The plan is for the village use for future
development, It allows the village to grow in
an established manner and allows for an
more organized use of land within the
boundaries of the village. This framework
then makes way for zoning bylaws.
