SEWERS FOR BLYTH?—Although it may have looked like the awaited
sewers for Blyth were started last week such was not the case. The Blyth
Standard was having their water control valve installed. Previous to this
the water valve was in the Wilson's home next door to the Standard.
Once the ground has settled it will be seeded.

here's your chance
BY DEBBIE RANNEY
Bran muffins arc my specialty when it
comes to baking. The only other thing I
know how to bake at the moment is a
chocolate cake. I can even do that by the
scratch method if I have to, but I prefer
Duncan Hines.
But the more people who send in those
delectable Christmas recipes to this news-
paper, the more I'll be encouraged to
explore further than the areas of bran
muffins and chocolate cakes.
I'm one of the worlds messiest bakers.
My mother always told me to put
everything away as I used it, but 1 prefer to
see a good portion of the bag of flour on
those dripping egg remains, sugar, and
anything else that goes into the recipe
scattered in full view on the cupboard.
That's one way of being able to see what
I've accomplished.
My bran muffin making expertise got
started when in my summer holidays, my
mother used to suggest 1 could make them
for dessert for supper. She never suggest-
ed that I learn to bake much else besides
the chocolate cake, probably because she
hated looking at that messy cupboard.
My mother can follow a recipe by
guesstimating, but not me. I follow all
directions exactly. 1 don't know if that's
why my bran muffins turn out better than
hers or not, but at least I'm able to bake
something. For cooks like me, include
detailed instructions with your recipe
please.
Those of us who write news for a living
would like to learn more about baking and
cooking and you readers could help us out
immensely by sending in those recipes for
the Christmas Cookbook.
Recipes for main dishes, recipes for
nearly everything are welcome in. he
Christmas Cookbook. For details sec the ad
elsewhere in the paper.
And if helping me learn to cook isn't
enough of a reward, remember each recipe
submitted by Wednesday, October 24 has a
chance to win one of 20 $2 prizes that will
be drawn that day.
So, from one good (?) cook to another,
get those recipes — as many good ones as
you want to enter -- into the newspaper
office Soon.

Ministers study
BY REV. ROBERT SCOTT
The Bible says: "By grace
are ye saved through faith
..." (Ephesians 2:8) What
wonderful words of assur-
ance these are to the hunger-
ing soul. The scripture goes
on to point out that salvation
is a gift from God. What Paul
is telling the Ephesians and
The power of grace
is telling you, dear reader, is
that God loves us even
though we may not deserve
it. As a matter of fact, we
(earn that we can't ever earn
God's love. Paul writes that
the gift of God's salvation is
as a result of faith alone and
not good works. (Ephesians
2:9)
God is our Father in
heaven. None of us, 1 hope,
has ever had to earn the love
of our earthly father. This is
even more true of the Father
in heaven. God offers His
love first. There is nothing
any of us can do to earn it.
All we are asked to do is
accept it.
Anyone who earnestly
desires to turn from his old
ways and asks for help from
God will receive it. Salvation
comes right here and right
now when we invite Jesus to
have control of our lives. The
blood of Christ, shed for you
and me on the Cross, washes
away every sin, every con-
cern, every fear that destroys
our joy.
We must, however, be
sincere in our decision and
unwavering in our deter-
mination to live for Jesus.
Salvation will be made null
and void by any who will
consciously turn again to
their past sins. You can't
have your sins wiped out and
then expect that it is alright
to go back to the wrongdoing
for which you have sought
forgiveness.
Temptation will surely be
there, but we can depend on
God for strength to resist.
And we must trust the Lord

We have had a bountiful
year and this past Thanks-
giving weekend illustrated
all our wealth.
This holiday weekend is
one of the few that does not
have a religious beginning
and yet it is one of the more
God oriented celebrations,
The bounty of the land
graces our tables and almost
every home delights in
delicious odours from the
kitchen. The churches are
decorated with harvested
produce and the number one
item on most everyone's
mind is prayers to their God
for the good harvest and
weather.
Our company over the
weekend made it more
special than other years. The
wet weather heralded the
end of the summer days we
have beer enjoying and
while Jan and I cooked goose
and all the trimmings, the
gentlemen kept the hearth
warm with a roaring fire,
We even took the time to
get out in the rain to pick
apples to make fresh apple-
sauce. The old trees along
the bush line were laden with
apples. Many of them with-
out a worm or blemish. Jan
had only sampled applesauce
out of a can before and was
quite surprised at how much
better fresh applesauce could
taste.
So surprised that we made
enough for her to take two
quarts back home.
The kitchen will not smell
that good again until
December when the
Blyth
team
competes
On Wednesday, Oct. 3
students from Blyth Public
School travelled to Brucefteld
to compete in the annual
regional soccer tournament.
Seven schools from the
central part of Huron County
took part in the round-robin
tournament, so that both
boys and girls teams played
six forty minute games.
Both teams started out
playing Hullett school. The
boys came out of the first
game with a 1 to 1 draw, and
the girls won 1-0.
The next games were
against the Clinton teams.
The Clinton team had a
squad of boys who lost only
one point all day by tying
Blyth 2-2. The Blyth girls lost
1.0,
Against Calvin Christian
School, Blyth boys blew a
two goal lead, and ended
with another tie 3.3. The
girls picked up their second
win of the day 2-0.
The boys picked up one
more point in a tie with the
Holmesville boys, for a total
of four points. Clinton was
high in the boys division with
eleven points.
The girls finished with six
points and one more win on
of the day, against
Holmesville. The winners
were the Seaforth girls, with
a perfect record of 12 points
from six wins,
Special thanks to Jim
Lawrie and Mrs. D.
Scrimgeour for assisting with
the driving and coaching.

Christmas season calls tor
home cooked treats to serve
holiday guests.
All this good feeling made
me wonder about our federgl
minister of external affair's
recent speech about foreign
aid.
Flora McDonald
commented on the amount of
dollars that Canada pours
into third world and
developing countries and
how much we get in return.
Besides the goodwill, that
does not help us in material
or financial ways, these
countries seem to be at a
standstill and require just as
much aid as in the be-
ginning.
The more machinery and
people we send to train
others to use it is only a drop
in the bucket. At present
Canada is running a deficit in
the trade department and it
would only make common
sense to balance the monies
to compensate for this pro-
blem.
I am not unaware of the
many problems of running a
government but there are a
lot of peculiar problems that
need looking into. One of
them is the hospitals around
the province which are
having o close beds, on
government orders due to
lack of funds and yet there is
Wintario giving away funds
to just about any project that
suits their fancy. Could there
somehow be some sort of
co-operation?
And then there are the oil
rich Albertans piling up the
millions with their oil and
negotiating with the rest of
Canada about pricing like
they arc members of OPEC.
What ever happened to the
national unity we all discuss?
Quebec is not the only thorn
in our side,
But all these suituations
will either come to a head
and be settled or slowly
evaporate away. Whatever
the outcome the common
Canadian has just to hold on,
fight when he can and sit
back when the battle gets out
of his hands.
But here in Canada we are
still lucky. The majority of us
have enought to eat and
rooves over our heads. Gas is
still plentiful enough to get to
work on and there are very
few things that we lack. For
this we can give thanks all
year round.

An anniversary
Me and the old lady had another
wedding anniversary last week. Holey ole
Moley, how the years fly by!
Usually, we remember our anniversary a
week or ten days after it has gone by, and
laugh about it. We don't believe much in
anniversaries, as do some people who
squabble all year, then go out to dinner
with wine and roses, and are back
pounding on each other within two days.
One year 1 actually remembered and
brought home eighteen yellow roses. 'She
fainted dead away with shock, and when
she came to, gave me the devil for wasting
all that money.
'This year, 1 thought about it away back
in August, and tiled it away in my memory
bank, determined to surprise her this year.
Show her, by George, that there was some
fire, or at (east a few embers, underneath
that wisp of smoke,
My first thought was to sneak off with
her engagement ring and have it re -set in
24 -carat gold. I hacl to dismiss this idea as
impractical for two reasons. First, I'd have
to remove her finger to get the ring to the
jeweller. Secondly, the price of gold went
up so fast it made my eyes water when 1.
read the financial page.
Then I thought of a mink coat. But again
there were two obstacles. One was the
price of mink coats, which has soared
almost as high as gold. The other was a
conviction I've long held, that the only
creature on this earth who needs a mink
coat is a mink.
Well, I worked my way down through an
emerald brooch, for her Irish ancestry, a
pearl necklace, diamond earrings. It was
all disappointing. 1 knew 1'd be ripped off
with emeralds, she likes gold necklaces,
not pearl, and she's always losing one
earring, like every other woman. What is
as useless as one diamond earring? I'd kill
her if she lost one.
That's one reason 1 got little done
through August and part of September -
worrying about the present for this one
anniversary I would have remembered,
I considered giving her a new car. But I
can't even afford one for the two of us, let
alone one for her,
One after another I discarded seemingly
brilliant inspirations. I even went to the
lengths of planning to sneak out in the
middle of the night and painting the back
stoop, which she'd been trying to get me to
do all summer. But 1 shuddered at the
thought,of painting out there, all alone in
the cold and dark.
Finally, it hit me like a thunderbolt, and
a tidal wave of relief swept over ntc. 1 had
it.
Something to suggest her Mother Earth
qualities. Something in green and gold. her
favorite colors. Something that would
suggest her sweetness, juiciness, tender-
ness. Something she could get her teeth
into, instead of junk like rings, necklaces,
fur coats. Thirty-three cobs of corn!
With the decision made, 1 relaxed, and
promptly forgot all about our anniversary.
She didn't, for once. On the fateful day, I
arrived home from work, tossed out a few
jollities, read her some interesting bits
from the paper, asked what kind of day
she'd had, All 1 got in return was cold
shoulder and hot tongue.
She was in a bad mood. Not because I'd
forgotten our anniversary. Just one of
those rotten tempers women get into once
in a while because they've had to deal with
the plumber and TV repairman, • the
vacuum cleaner went on the blink, all the
woodwork in the house is "filthy", and
they've scrubbed the kitchen and have a
sore back,
In the old days, 1 used to pet her and pat
her and promise her, and she'd gradually
come around. But I gave that up years ago.
It was too hard on me.
Nowadays, 1 fire right back: "What the
hell's biting you? Cut out the self-pity. I
work too, you know. Aw, go soak your
head, crab." And so on. We usually have a
good verbal set-to, sulk a little, and the air
is cleared.
But this time she speared me, right in
the middle of one of my finest perorations.
"Did you know this was our anniversary?"
Talk about hitting below the belt.
I was stricken with remorse, shame and
guilt. No details, but we kissed and made
up and 1 did the dishes,
Must say we've weathered the storm
pretty well. 1 was five years older than she
when we were wed. 1 now look like an elder
statesman of about sixty-five. She looks
about thirty-four. My hair is white, hers is
black. Her teeth are white, mine are black.
It's a little disconcerting when you go to
a reception or some other function, the host
reads the name -tag, and burbles, "Well,
Bill Smiley. I've heard of you. And you've
brought your daughter along. How nice."
But I wouldn't trade the old battleaxe for
a new one, even though she's laid a pretty
good collection of scars on me, physically
and otherwise.

Who is responsible?
When a child, riding a bicycle in an illegal manner, becomes
involved in an accident, who is really responsible for the tragedy?
It is true that the child should know the rules of the road while on a
bicycle: He should stop at stop signs; he should not ride on sidewalks;
he should stay on the right side of the road; he should signal before
turning; he should not ride double on a bicycle; he should never ride at
night without lights.
But how does a child get to know these rules?
He should learn them from his parents. It is, as a matter of fact, the
responsibility of the parent to ensure that his child knows the rules
before he is ever allowed to go out onto the road.
Therefore, it follows that if the child gets into trouble, there is a good.
chance that he was not taught and cautioned adequately on bicycle
safety by his parents, or that his parents lack proper control of his
actions when he is out of their sight. Either way, the parent could --and
in our opinion, should --be held responsible when a child gets into
difficulty with the law while operating his bicycle.
We would have to agree with the member of town council, who said
that parents should be required to pay fines, and to retrieve
impounded bicycles, when a youngster finds himself in difficulty with
the law over the way he operates his bicycle. That way, both the parent
and child might better learn that there are certain responsibilities, and
rules, for the safety of the cyclist, that go along with the pleasure of
bike -riding.
There may be some argument that parents cannot be held
responsible for the actions of their children. We are not sure, but we
seem to recall some talk very recently about a new law in Canada which
does make parents responsible. Council might be well advised to check
this possibility out thoroughly before proceeding with any proposed
changes in its bicycle -riding bylaw.

Behind the Scenes
by Keith Roulston
A precious commodity
The price of gold has been setting
record high prices lately but there is one
commodity even more precious that's
virtually ignored these days. It's called
wisdom.
Have you ever stopped to think you just
don't hear much about wisdom any more?
When was the last time you heard someone
referred to as a wise man? A person might
be called smart or he might be called
well-educated but the word wise has
virtually passed from our vocabulary.
But wisdom is something quite different
than intelligence. It is something that isn't
as easily gained as education. Over the years
I've met many intelligent people, people
who could learn quickly, who could tell you
how a computer worked or speak several
languages but who were not wise. I've met
many people with college educations who
were anything but wise.
Wisdom is something that many be
obtained by someone without a high degree
of education. Usually a wise person is
intelligent but an intelligent person isn't
necessarily wise.
Perhaps there are several reasons for
wisdom being almost ignored in our time.
One reason is perhaps that wisdom is
traditionally associated with life experience.
Wise men (or women) have generally been
thoughtof as old men. Wisdom came from
taking a detached view of what was going on
around you, of being able to see beyond ther
particular to the general. Some people had
this ability to see things over the long term
better than others and as they grew older
and experienced more, they became wiser.
They knew that the problems of today were
just part of a larger pattern.
But today of course the emphasis is on
youth, not age. We're concerned with
chance with "progress';. Old people aren't
people to be held in high regard because of
their accumulated knowledge of living. They
are instead people with old fashioned ideas,
people caught in a time warp, still living in
an age before the latest technological
changes. They're obsolete human beings.
Similarly we don't hear much about
wisdom because we're in a scientific age.
We like to be able to measure everything
and you just can't measure wisdom. It isn't
an absolute. You can't teach wisdom in a
university course and grade your students on
how much they have learned. You can't have
a specialist in wisdom with fancy degres and
a guarantee he'll have a good income for the
rest of his life by sharing his wisdom with
others.
Probably the downgrading of religion also
has a lot to do with the fact wisdom is seldom
mentioned these days. Nearly all religions
have a large dose of wisdom involved. The
Christian religion is based on long centuries
of accumulated wisdom of both Christians
and Jews. The far Eastern religions of India
and China also depend on the musings of
wise old men. They give an overview of life,
life not bogge .d down in the problems of day
to day existence.
Yet one of the greatest gaps in modern life
is the lack of wisdom and the lack of respect
for wisdom. We're assaulted with
information on every subject under the sun.
No generation of mankind has ever has
access to as much knowledge. But what is
knowledge in itself. Knowledge is only the
raw material for us to make decision s and
confronted with so much information, how
do we choose?
Well there are plenty of people willing to
tell us. If we have more information than
ever before, we also have more "experts"
than ever before, In the newspaper or on
television we have columnists ready to tell us
how they think we should interpret the news.
We have experts to tell us how to choose a
house, how to decorate a house how to fix
the plumbing, how to fix a car how to cook
marvellous food even how to jazz up our sex
lives.
We have experts telling us this food is
safe to eat only to heart some other expert
telling us that it isn't. We have people
telling us that we must make the water and
air purer only to hear others tell us that if we
do we'll have to take a reduction in our living
standard. We have experts on everything.
And in case all these experts just get you
more mixed up, you can go to an expert
psychiatrist to get you straightened out.
But what we really need in this confusing
world is not more information but more
wisdom. We; need wisdom to make sense out
of our complicated modern world. We need
people who can look beyond the day to day
worries and realize that in 50 years from now
most of our"problems" will only be trivia of
history. We need people who can show us
that the problems we are having are part of
the eternal struggles of the human race. We
need people to remind us that things run in
cycles and that if we're worried for instance
abot too much freedom in sex today then
likely 50 years from now the pendulum will
likely go the opposite way to too much
repression no matter what the "experts" try
to tell us. We need wisdom to put all things
in perspective.
We need to restore wisdom to our
vocabulary and venerate the wise person
again. It would add so much peace to our
lives if we did,

Local researcher locates photos
STIFF COMPETITOR—Jennifer Johns, daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Johns, Auburn on
her pony Copper dealt with some stiff
competition this year. Here she was competing
in 4-H trials, Seaforth.
Editors Note:
The following photos and material was submitted by Mr. Sandy
McDonald, Goderich. Mr. McDonald has been researching old photos
and stories for a number of years. Although these were submitted for the
Auburn's 125th Birthday supplement the material is more in keeping
with Blyth origins.
In the course of making a search for a 'Blyths Own' Picture. a couple of
other world war one army photographs were discovered, at the rer:Idence
of Frank Biggin, 175 Avon Street, Stratford. Mr. Biggin, a VVVVI veteran,
and an ex -member of 'Blyths Own', ("161" Huron Overseas infantry
battalion) was "At Home", Wednesday afternoon, May 9th, when "161"
researcher, A.N. (Sandy) McDonald dropped by.
The 'Canadian Expeditionary Force' soldier went overseas with the '161'
when the battalion embarked 'from Halifax, aboard thr Upland',
November 1st, 1916, in convoy, bound for England. After enlisting
January 29th, 16, at Blyth, during a recruiting drive, he and several other
Blyth area 'boys' were immediately issued uniforms, (complete wits,
"Swagger sticks").
Pictured in front of 'Brantfo. d Re ofing' office, with the (Too hastily
made) Huron overseas ban Bei behind, w. ere some newly inducted
'Blyths own' soldiers:.
"161 ster" Biggin", as well as recognizing himself, (in the back row,
extreme right) identified several other "16 sters": Others, in the same
row he named were: Second from left, (PTE.) 'Ted' Maines, 5th from
left, (PTE.) Fred Crawford and, Next to (CPL.) Biggin was PTE. Russ.
Woods; ;in the front row, 'N.C.O. (Non- Commissioned Officer) Biggin'
recognized the officer on the extreme left as lieut. W. 'Frank' Scott, A
former Brussels Elementary school master; soldiers of other rank,.. in
front, identified, were: Third from left, (PTE.) Edgar (Ted) Cowan;
Fourth, (PTE.) 'Bill' Hamm; fifth, (Pte.) 'Herb' Dexter; sixth, (PTE.) Jim
Hirons; (The seventh and eighth soldiers, in front, are believed to be the
"Snell Brothers", Maitland and Stan.) The officer on the right was not
recognized.
While searching for an original 'Blyths Own' Photo., showing the larger
group, Mr. Biggin found another WWI army picture. Taken while the
"161" Battalion was in 'Basic Training' at 'Carling Heights Camp',
London, Ontario, it pictures three wellknown "Blyth Boys", Before
returning from "Leave" one evening, (In June, 1916) they stopped at a
London photographer's studio; Posed before a realistic backdrop of army

Pro life group
Hold national walk-a-thon
Pro-life groups across
Canada took part in a
national walkathon last
Saturday, Sept. 29 to mark
the International Year of the
Child. Each Group walked in
its own community. Locally_
Voice for Life, the Wingham
and area Pro-life Group,
walked 10 miles along High-
way 86 west of Wingham.
The main purpose of the
walk was to demonstrate the
Group's concern about
abortion, infanticide and
child abuse in Canada.
"In our society today some
children just don't count,"
Sally Campeau, a member of
Voice for Life said. "The
price tags on the lives of
some children have been
greatly marked down."
She said that at the pre-
sent time almost 60,000
abortions are performed in
Canada each year. She also
reported that in 1977 it was
made public that Sick
Children's Hospital in
Toronto had, during the 10
years prior to that date,
allowed 27 out of 50 children
born with Down's Syndrome
(Mongolism) to die by failing
to perform minor surgery.
Child abuse is also a
problem; in Canada we can
not boast that we respect all
human life, she added.
She noted that the pre-
amble to the United Nations'
declaration of the rights of
the child states; "the child,
by reason of his physical and
mental immaturity, needs
special safeguards and care
including appropriate legal
protection before as well as
after birth."
Principle 5, of the
Declaration, states thatr'the
child who is physically,
mentally or socially handi-
capped shall be given special
treatment, education and
care required by his
particular condition "
Voice for Life is an
educational organization
which aims to protect all
human life from conception
until natural death. Its aims
and objectives are first to
inform the general public 1.
That the unborn child is a
human being. 2. Of the
moral, social, medicaland
psychological effects of
abortion. 3. Of Canadian
abortion facts. 4. Of the
alternatives to abortion and
secondly to work toward
changing public opinion to
increase respect for all
human life.
The oreanization re-
cognizes and understand
the serious problems in life,
Mrs. Campeau said, but
finds the solution not in
killing or hurting other
human beings but in humane
solutions showing love and
concern for others according
to God's will.
Funds raised from the
Walkathon will be used
partly for local educational
purposes; some funds will
also be sent to the umbrella
organization, Alliance for
Life, in Toronto to expand its
work in research and co-
ordinating Pro -Life activities
across Canada.
B of E wants parking lot safe
The , Huron county
board of education
realized Monday that it
had to keep unwanted
traffic out of the Central
Huron Secondary School
parking lot in Clinton but
it couldn't decide how to
do it.
The board looked at
several options to close
the lot to unauthorized
traffic when it discovered
a situation that could
place students at the
school in danger.
Director of education
John Cochrane told the
board there had already
been one mishap at the
school and unless
something was done
there could be more. He
told the board a student
had exited from the
school building through a
rear entrance and was
crossing a drive to go to
the athletic field. He said
a car came around the
corner and struck the
student in a hit and run
accident.
Cochrane said the
student was not injured in
the incident pointing out
he was just grazed by the
car. But he added that the
driver of the vehicle
failed to stop. He said
students and some
teachers at the school felt
the incident was
deliberate.
The board decided to
refer the matter back to
the management com-
mittee for further in-
vestigation.

Cutting trees?
Huron county council
decided 'Thursday to
slake illegal tree cutting
in the county a very
expensive proposition.
County council told its
development C0nlnlittcc
to rewrite the county tree
cutting bylaw to in-
corportac recent changes
in the Trees Act,
The 'frees Act,
provincial legislation
aimed al controlling the
cutting of trees and
clearing of forested
areas, carries no weight
in the county unless
county council passes 0
bylaw to enforce it.
Murray I)awson ,
Usborne deputy -reeve,
told council that recent.
amendments to the 'free
Act put "more teeth" in
the county bylaw. He said
the big change was in
fines now levied for of-
1'endors of the bylaw.
Under the present
bylaw, which cotnlcil will
rescind to pass the up-
dated version, the
maximum fine for
illegally cutting trees was
$500, The maximum will
now be $5,000.
The other changes will

downers wishing to clear
THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 10, 1979 — 11
Checking county just could avoid X5000 fine
forest ed areas. Any
owner planning to clear
I0n(1 will have to make
application to the county.
Notice of the proposed
land clearing will then be
given to surrounding
landowners and they will
have 21 days to object. If
no objection is raised the
county. will then issue the
permit if it feels the
clearing is justified. If an
objection is raised the
platter will be dealt with
by council or in Court.
Marvin Smith of the
ministry of natural
resources said the
changes in the act are
designed to protect
forests not hush lots. Ile
said the act clearly
describes the type of
trees a11(I the con-
centration of trees that
are to be protected.
Ile said il';In owner has
three acres of hawthorn°
and three staple trees the
act would not, prevent
hint from clearing the
land. But he added that if
an acre of land contained
100 or more trees it would
be protected by the 'Frees
Act.
Smith said the
Iegilsal ion is designed to
protect a valuable
resource. Ile said if
MOH says abortion
count up in Huron
Huron county council
learned 'Thursday from
the county medical of-
ficer of health that the
number of abortions
carried out in 1978
represents a 75 percent
increase in the past five
years,
131'ian Lynch 101(1
council there were 73
abortions carried out
over half of them on girls
between the ages of 15
and 19,
Lynch said 53.4 percent
of the abortions per-
formed were on girls 15 to
19 years of age, 23.31
percent on the 20 to 24
year old age group and
23.2 percent on the over 25
year old age group.
He told council the
number of abortions
carried out on young
women concerned him
because of the adverse
affect the operation may
have on their ability to
have children later in
their lives.
Goderich reeve Eileen
Palmer was the only
member of council to
respond to the comments
by Lynch pointing out to
council that if those
figures were to be
reduced there "has to be
a change in attitude
toward sex education".
Palmer suggested that
the change come in the
schools in the county.
Lynch agreed with
Palmer's comment
pointing out that the
place to begin sex
education for younger
people is prior to their
entering high school, He
said sex education
classes are most effective
with younger people.
He said he did not know
how effective present sex
education classes are in
the county but pointed out
they are "better than
nothing" 1le said the
Huron -Perth Separate
School system operated
an excellent family
studies course for pre
high school students
adding he was unaware of
0 similar course for
public school students.
Ile pointed out that the
abortions 00 worsen from
Huron county were
performed in other
counties "vigorously
uphold" the 'frees Act it
does a "very good job" of
protecting forest areas.
Smith said forested
areas of the county are
necessary for a number
of reasons. He said the
forests play a great role
in the depth of the water
table as well as
preventing soil erosion.
1 -le said the ideal ratio
for forest to open land is
80-20, 20 percent of the
land forested, 13ut he
added that if 10 percent of
the land is tinder forest
"that's not bad".
Smith said that if a
landowner started
clearing trees from 0
protected area without a
permit he may be liable
for a fine but also can be
ordered to replant the
arca cleared,
Ile pointed out that in
some areas of }-Itn•on
county the tree act is
needed badly while in
other's the ratio of forest
and open land is ideal. He
said townships in the
south of the county are
almost void of trees while
some in the north are the
opposite.
Smith said Huron
county has 0 decent ratio
of forest to cleared land
that hasn't changed much
in the past 20 years. He
said 13.6 percent of the
land in Huron is under
forest a►nlpaled to 7.4
percent in Perth county.
Ile added that that figure
has changed less than two
percent in the past 24
years.
He said of all the land in
Usborne township 4.5
counties. Ile said abor-
tion was 0 touchy subject
pointing out that if one
was performed in a small
hospital in Huron there
would he a great deal of
"flak".

Dawson told council the
development committee
wanted to find out as
rllllch as possible about
the repercussions of the
bylaw so it didn't snake
any mistakes. 1 -le said the
bylaw docs more than
protect trees.
Dawson said his
township told its tree
commissioner to "throw
out the permit book" and
inspect every application
himself. Ile said the
commissioner was told
that anytime there was
"any nilly gritty he didn't
know what to do with to
bring it to council".
. Brussels reeve Calvin
Krauter, a plumber by

Parents of handicapped
kids invited to meeting
BY JOANNE BUCHANAN
Freda and Stewart
Thomson of Goderich are
looking for feedback from
people in Huron nd Perth
Counties who may be
interested in forming an
association for parents of
handicapped children,
They want to know how
many people would be
interested in forming such an
association and what
concerns and needs these
people have. This informa-
tion does not necessarily
have to come from the
parents of handicapp.id
children themselves, says
Mrs. Thomson. Any
interested individuals may
reply.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomson
have a three-year-old son
with cerebral palsy. In con-
versation with the district
nurse for the Ontario Society
for Crippled Children some
time ago, Mrs. Thomson
voiced her need to share and
discuss her special problems
with other parents of hand-
icapped children. She wasn't
the only person to voice such
a need to this nurse.
The nurse got all those
interested people together
and a meeting was held in
Scaforth last Wednesday
evening to discuss ways in
which an association could be
formed. Mr. and Mrs. Thom-
son were named as delegates
for the association and will
attend another meeting in
Chatham on November 10.
The association would be a
sounding board and a source
of comfort to the parents of
handicapped children. they
would find out through the
association that they arc not
alone in their problems.
Transportation and educa-
tion for their handicapped
children would be discussed
and acted upon,
One of the association's
hopes would be to have a
therapist visit a central arca
in the two counties so
parents would not always
have to do the travelling. Mrs,
Thomson says she and hus-
band have been travelling
once a week for two years
with their son to a therapist
in London.
Parent relief programs
would also be looked into
along with a special program
to train babysitters for handi-
capped children.
All these ideas arc just in
the discussion stage so far.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomson
would be pleased to hear
from those interested in
forming an association or
offering any input at all.
They can be reached by
writing to: 114 Suncoast
Drive, Goderich,
The next meeting is
October 17 at 8 p.m. at
Scaforth Community Centre.
All interested persons are
welcome to attend.

Worshippers to Blyth
Church on Oct. 7 were
greeted in the N•irthex by
displays of produce and other
material goods arranged by
the Sunday school boys and
girls, giving the message of
many of the things for which
they are thankful at this
Thanksgiving Season. In the
sanctuary were floral
bouquets of fall and dried
flowers, arranged by Lois
Carter.
Stewart Anent greeted at
the door and ushers were Bill
Carter, Brian Freer, Leslie
Caldwell and Ralph Hoba,
Mrs. Wittich led the hymn
sing, with Dianne Wasson
accompanying on the piano
together with organist Mrs.
Kai.
"Jesus Is all the World to
Me" was a truly
thanksgiving anthem by the
Choir. and Mr. Wittch helped
the children understand that
if everyone has love in their
hearts for family and friends
they have something for
which to be really thankful
regardless of how rich people
are, materially.
Colossians 2:6-7 was the
text Mr. Wittich chose for his
sermon, "Abounding in
Thanksgiving". In part, it
reads, "let your roots grow
down into Him and draw up
nourishment from
him...Let your lives overflow
with joy and thanksgiving for
all He has done." Mr.
Wittich point ed out that
when we have Spiritual
thankfulness, material
‘‘'calth doesn't come first.
Christians arc a transplanted
deople, uprooted by God
from our sinful, selfish live s
Then, giving God our
consent, He helps us put
down new roots in Christ.
We are dependent on
blueprints to build anything,
and to build our Faith and
become established in the
Faith, and know whom and
what we believe,

Harvest fruits at church
Knox United Church was
artistically decorated for its
Thanksgiving service.
Many varieties of vege-
tables and fruits of harvest
adorned the c'onintunion
table, itaskets of niulti-
colourcd flowers added to the
display of God's bountiful
gifts. The ‘rork uI' art was
arranged by Mrs. Glen
('oultes and t\1rs. (:;surge
Johnston.
Mrs. George Procter,
organist, accompanied the
anthem "0 Give 'thanks."
Rey..lohn G. Roberts used
a diagram to illustrate the
teaching of two parables -
The prodigal Son and the
Labourers In The Vineyard.
Contrast is shown in each of
the lessons.
The first parable mentions
the man who stayed home
and wcrrked, while the broth-
er wasted his substance.
The second parable shows
the contrast between the
day -long workers and the
one-hour employees, Both
stories are told by Jesus to
bring out one single point -
God's generosity. The focus
is on God in each instance,
not the two men or the
labourers,
By means of his diagram,
the Minister illustrated that
God is at the top, man at the
bottom. Two men, one good,
one bad progress upward;
but there is always a barrier
between God aid man. Man
is never static, always
searching for good or bad,
rich or poor, always on a
pilgrimage to God or a self-
created ideal. God can reach
man, but a gap separated
man from God.
Man's equipment consists
of time, energy, disposition
and substance.
There is a human dilemma
which must be bridged. The
good may purchase granite
blocks and steel beams for
his bridge in the form of
goodness, friends etc, The
bad buys poor equipment.
Still there is no bridge across
the barrier to God, Is the
Good any better off than the
Bad?
•St. Paul queries "Shall sin
abound that grace may more
abound?" The answer lies in
the solidarity of human nat-
ure.
We must recognize that
man is never alone. He is
always in company with God,
The first man will have
attractive followers, will
cross his bridge with friends.
Not so with the second; he
has been too biased, critical,
has a poor bridge and no
followers.
Realize that God is .a -
generous Father to all, as we
worship in thanks at this
abundant harvest season.

14 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 10, 1979
Budget cuts hurt family services,
Family and Children
Services director John
Penn's success wrangling
money from a stingy
provincial government
ministry overshadowed
his criticism of the
province at Huron county
council's September
session Thursday.
In his report to council
Penn spoke in glowing
terms of county council
and his agency staff but
had few kind words for
the provincial govern-
ment.
His criticism stemmed
from the budget
restrictions placed on the
Huron agency by the
ministry of community
and social services. He
told council the ministry
continues to "increase
standards and workload"
for local agencies.
"without providing the
necessary resources to
complete the task".
He told council the
budget allocation for
Huron was "more
unrealistic than in former
years".
He explained that the
ministry had made far
reaching changes in the
responsibilities of local
agencies. He said the
province is decen-
tralizing services and
shifting accountability
and fiscal responsibility
He pointed out that one
such attempt to shift
accountability lies in the
death of a child due to
child abuse. The province
has issued numerous
guidelines and standards
agencies can abide by to
prevent such tragedies
but did not back them up
with any money to make
them operational.
He said that in light of
greater demands the
ministry made on
agencies the province
gave Huron a meagre 1.5
percent increase over
1978 spending.
He said the Huron
increase is the lowest in

adding that some neigh-
boring agencies received
a 10 percent increase for
the same period.
"Programs cannot be
operated at a satisfactory
level if the resources are
not available," he
warned council.
Penn said the economic
policies used to finance
Family and Children's
Services "is a sad
commentary on this
provincial government's
response to the needs of
families and children in
1979, the International
Year of the Child",
But Penn mellowed his
criticism by telling
council he had managed
to shuffle workers and his
own budget allocations to
get around the ministry
cuts. He said the agency
would suffer a $30,000
deficit in 1979 but ex-
plained the deficit was in
an area the province
would pick up.
Penn made no attempt
to explain to council how
he had beat the ministry
funding system saying it
was "complicated and
hard to believe".
He said he had a
guarantee in writing
from the province that it
would pick up the deficit
if it was not due to salary.
Penn said he was able to
shift workload around
within his salary
guidelines adding that his
shifting not only meant
the government would
pick up the deficit but
would give him another
worker next year.
He told council his
success at the economic
game was partially due to
success the Huron agency
has enjoyed in preventing
child abuse problems. He
said the preventitive
program here had
reduced the number of
children the agency had
in care by 10 this year.
He added that recent
problems some agencies
encountered in child
abuse cases made them
"jumpy about leaving
kids at home". He said
the exact' opposite was
true in Huron.
Penn said the funding
problem Huron had this
year was common
amongst the 50 agencies
in the province. He said it
was a constant source of
"frustration and con-
cern".
But the director made
it clear the problem was
with the province only.
He said county council
funds 20 percent of the
Huron agency's work and
has always been "sup-
portive of our work".
He said in many
counties agencies not
only have to contend with
financial restraint by the
province but is also
forced into confrontation
with local politicians.
He said "despite fiscal
restrains and increasing
pressure upon the agency
I believe that the board of
directors and the staff
have done an excellent
job providing a wide
range of services to
families and children in
Huron county".

The board gave

ahead to survey the

hall but made it clear it
had no intention of paying
for any part of the sur-

The hoard was asked
by township council to
consider permitting the
proposed hall on board
property adjacent to the
elementary school. By
doing so the board could
take advantage of
facilites the hall offered
and the township could tie
into services now used by
the school.
The board agreed to the
survey after its
management committee
reported that it was
necessary to determine
exactly where the
proposed building would
go and how it would affect
the school.
The committee also
told the board there are

that long before any
construction starts that
agreement should be
drawn up.
"If we don't have an
agreement we may as
well not have a building,"
said committee chairman
Don McDonald.
The Brussels trustee
said he felt it was the
hoard's duty to draw up a
firm agreement spelling
out who was responsible
for what.
Exeter trustee
Clarence McDonald
asked if the management
committee made it clear
that after the building
was up the board may
share some operating
costs but would pay
nothing for construction.
He said if the board was
using the building for
students at Holmesville it
should be prepared to pay
but it shouldn't pay to put
the building up.
McDonald said the
board would probably
cost share caretaking
costs for the building but
that was all.
