Provincial election called Gaunt retires Longtime Liberal MPP Murray Gaunt announced Tuesday he will riot seek re• election in the March 19 Provincial election announced Monday by Premier William Davis. In a press release from Toronto Mr. Gaunt, who has served as Huron -Bruce, MPP for more than 18 years, said he intends to spend more time with his family and lead "a more normal life". "This has been the most difficult career decision I have ever made. and one that I make with some regret," said the release. "My decision is based on personal rather than political reasons. "The time has come when I want to spend more time with my family," it continued, "That is important to me because my family has accepted additional re- sponsibility over the years while Iihave been away so much, and on weekends when 1 was home but engaged in meetings with constituents and dealing with their problems. "I want to pay tribute to my family for their support and help over the years which has allowed me to pursue my political career. I am deeply indebted to them. Now it is their turn." In closing Mr. Gaunt thanked the electors of Huron•Bruce and added he wished "Stuart Smith and the Liberal party every success in this election." Mr. Gaunt and his wife Pat have two children, Stephen, IS and Stephanie. 13. The retiring MPP said he expects a healthy race for the Liberal nomination in the riding. He added he plans to work for his party then take a long vacation after the election before settling down to do some farming. "It will be nice to listen to the grass grow for a change." he said. Auburn garage helps put county budget over BY SHARON DIETZ Huron County Council learned at their January 29 meeting that for the year 1980, the Huron County Highways Department accumulated a deficit on a cash basis of 5201,068. According to County Engineer Bob Dempsey, the deficit occurred when two projects during the year resulted in substantial overruns. The road construction of County Road 11, from the Perth Boundary to Highway 23. was originally budgeted for 5281.000. and yet. 5584,000. was spent on the project. The engineer and the road committee decided to continue with the construction of County Road 11 beyond that originally anticipated in 1980 since weather conditions, manpower, equipment and time were available to continue with the work in August and September. It was understood, said Mr. Dempsey in his report, that this would result in some overrun but it would also permit the possibility of paving the road in 1981 rather than in 1982. In light of the rapid increase in petroleum prices this would result in a substantial saving to the county by being able to pave the road one year earlier.

On the bulletin cover was a little girl saying her prayers. Mr. Wittich gave each one in Jr. congregation one to take home to put up on their bedroom wall, and said how good it is to be able to talk to God. Background scripture for the sermon: "Examples of Faith (3) Joseph", were read from Genesis 50: 15-21 and Hebrews 11: 20.26. Joseph's numerous admirable charact- eristics were outlined by Mr. Wittich (1) He gave credit to God. For example - people came to Joseph to have their dreams interpreted, but he would answer that only God can interpret dreams. Jesus said "without Me you can do nothing". It takes a surgeon and his instruments together to perform operations. God does things (beneficial to His Kingdom) through us. (2) Joseph resisted temptation. He wouldn't do anything immoral and sin against God. God allows us to be tempted but helps us resist. (3) Joseph was able to forgive. He allowed his brothers food in Egypt in spite of all they had done to him, saying only God could punish his brothers, (4) Joseph was obedient. He suffered, to keep God's commandments, and in later years could see that God turned evil (of his brothers) into good. We are to do what is right regardless of the consequences. (5) Joseph believed God's promises. Joseph told his descendants that God would take them from Egypt back to the Promised Land, someday. Accept and believe that God has a Promised Land for us too. Faith was exemplified in many ways in Joseph, We too are called to exercise the same Faith. Put God first. Greeting worship pers into the Narthex were Stewart Ament and Earl Caldwell. Ushers were Mary Walden and Evalina Webster who were assisted with the offering by Barb Walsh and Jim Walsh. Mr. Wittich has placed a At Presbyterial box in the Narthex for your questions and suggestions for hymns, texts and subjects you would like dealt with in sermons, etc. Feb. 9 at 8 is meeting date for Elders and Stewards followed by Official Board.

ROBERT SCOT[ Londeaboro United Church A couple of weeks ago a film was shown on T.V. which, when it first came to theatres caused quite a stir among those who saw it and - within the churches by mane who did not. It deals with a subject which, unfortunately, we tend to reject as fantasy or accept with such fear that it almost paralyzes. The film was the Exorcist and the subject is demon possession. It appeared in theatres at a time when folks were experiencing a renewed interest in the occult. It managed to scare a good many people. Some people were amused. Others, how• ever, experienced terrible manifestations of what the power of Satan can do. Now, some readers will fed that there is no basis to the concern about the devil. Others will suggest that he does exist and that his power is unconquerable.

Satan is a person even as God is a person. He doesn't wear a re J suit, have horns or sport a pointed tail. He lies in order to get his way, and will try to convince us that his power is greater than God's. One commentat- or has said that the devil can be described as being as much the embodiment of evil as Jesus is of holiness. Satan is against all that Christ represents. One of his greatest lies, and it seems to be succeed- ing is that he is a benign sort of character who really does- n't have designs on your soul. He leads innocent folk into such things as the use of Tarot cards, ouijah boards, horoscopes and the like. The attitude seems to be "its harmless" or "its only a game." That is what he wants us to believe. It's even possible that some Christians might have been led to toy with some of these things. That's how the evil one gets a foot -hold on the unsuspect- ing and opens the door to possession and oppression. Yes, I believe that Satan exists and that he uses all these means to deceive us. But I also believe that there is a power which is far stronger than his and which is irresistable. Don't believe everything you saw in the Ezorciit.

To the faithful Christian God's Word says_ "You are from God, little children, and have overcome (the evil spirits): because greater is He who is in you' than he who is in the world." (1 John 4:4 N.A.S.) There is an interest- ing point here and a question to ask. Is Christ within you? If you don't believe in Him then He is not. And if He is not within you then all you have is "he who is in the world" and that old liar doesn't care about your wehre or whether you be- lieve in him. "Put on the full armour of God, that you may be able to Stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For the struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against... the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Other kids would trade us their store bought cookies for our fresh homemade ones. We never had the filled cookies or those lovely flav- oured wafer ones at home. Now don't get me wrong. Mom is a fabulous cook and her pies and cakes were welcomed in many homes but when you are raised on those tasty treats the other ones always looked better. It is like that old adage the grass is always greener on the other side. In this case the sweets are always sweet- er on the other plate. But all that changes again as you get older and recall products or recipes that are not available with time. Memory of those foods get better and better until even the original cook wouldn't recognize the qual- ity of the product. 1 know. When I was young- er my mother made a choco- late sauerkraut cake that woutd knock the top of your mouth out it was so good. Now I have the recipe and have measured every- thing just according to direct- ions. The end product is not as good as 1 remember. I have made the recipe again and altered a few things like finer saurkraut and more cocoa but to no avail. Mind you the cake is good but not as good as I remember. Rare are the recipes that are passed from mother to daughter that retain their flavour and identity of the previous cook. But the fun comes in adapting recipes for yourself and creating new Ines from old ideas. If you don't have a family :lamouring for supper or lunch and you're feeling a little on .the creative side then try your hand at spicing up some staid old recipe. The absolutely worst thing that could happen is that no one will eat it and then it is back to the drawing board. Try not to get too exotic and that will help cut down on unfavour- ible comments.

Headings are written to create interest and draw the reader into the story or article. Quite often the one writing the heading is not the writer of the article. They follow the rule of thumb which calls for a heading to be written from material in the first section of the article. in most cases the headline writer tries to locate the most interesting point and write it in few enough words to fit in the space allotted. This explanation is a short way of letting readers know just what happens behind the scenes. The careful reader will read a story first before placing comment on the article or its heading. An example of looking a little closer would be fast week's heading on the Auburn news. "$1.000 spent on flowers" as it read seems like a lot of petunias but the expense also included labour and equipment. Although receipts totalled $666.40 the reader has to continue the story to see the group involved had a surplus. Admittedly there are rogue headings that slip by without a second glance and every paper enjoys the embarrassment involved. Maybe weeklies should consider a contest where readers write the perfect heading. It could open a few eyes and prove interesting. Frosted branch Majority and minority rights Faced w ith the obvious dangers of simple majority rule, we in Canada have kir 'cars now been concerned with the rights 01 minorities. Sonietimes, it seems. we'%e got minorities so much on our brain they become more important than maioriucs. Majority rule can. of course. lead Ionian evils. Prime example of hardship brought by the will of the majority are seen in what happened in Germany with Jews and what happened in the U.S. where the white majority conspired for many years to keep blacks as close to slavery as they could. This interest in minorities especially by the educated middle class liberal elements of our society, (exemplified by the media, the arts and the academics) has often tended to have a reverse double standard. Somehow the minority becomes more important that the majority. This can be evidenced in as harmless an area as music. That thought came to me on the weekend as 1 was reading an article in a magazine about a Canadian composer and performer who had struck it rich with a pop song. Now if this composer had written a rock piece or an opera that had been so internationally popular he would have been hailed by the Canadian intelligensia as a hero. But this poor foot decided to write something generally referred t� as "middle pf the road" music and thus his hit song was referred to as "a harmless little tune" and the whole article was full condescension Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston from our writer who wanted everyone to know that he wasn't one of those no -taste. "over 30 females" who made this composer a big success. The composer, aware of this view of his kind of people. spent the whole article alternately defending and almost apologis- ing for his work. The sane can be seen in just about any area you want to look at. Canadian playwright Bernard Slade is a huge inter- national hit so he is a hack, while some barely known writer who writes plays only other writers. actors and drama professors understand, is a giant in Canadian Iiteraturte• In the sane magazine there was an article about a Canadian actress who is now an international movie star. She recalled her girlhood where she was a bit of a rebel and the wild kid at a very civilized private school. She, of course, being in the minority, was the real person, the other girls were the phonies. This view of life fills nearly all aspects of life for the educated middle class sophistica- ted liberal. All intelligent people like themselves. for instance, are either atheist o r agnostic. The square majority which may not go to church as much as it once did but still believes in God is somehow silly little people not worth considering. Yet, this view changes when it comes to other cultures. it is somehow noble for the Canadian Indian, for instance. to believe in his ancient gods and ritual dances. These are not to be ridiculed by right-thinking people, Nor are the ancient religions of the Chinese, the Japanese or the Africans. Even Roman Catholicism is somehow noble if it is among the people of Poland fighting against oppression, even though it's a joke here in North America. An Eskimo who wants to pursue his lifestyle of hunting to make a meager living is to be defended by these right thinkers from the horrible, money-grubbing souther- ners. Even .r Newfoundland outporter is respected for clubbing seals for their pelts because it is part of the ancient lifestyle of the outports (although here there may be a certain division among right -thinkers.) But of course the southern Canadian who goes out to shoot a moose or a wolf Or a rabbit, he's something else again. He's little better than a murderer. There is something noble about the African or Asian peasant who works his tiny plot of land. The same can't be said, of course, for the North American who works his plot of land 'unless it's a roof garden in his downtown condominum). Ah there may be something quaint about farming for a living but it's something only the uneducated would do. Fads are one of the most insidious elements of our culture. We have fads for clothing, fads for games, fads for places to eat and places not to eat. The educated commonly like to make fun of the fadists yet they too have their fads. We had it in the sixties when the educated young generation rebelled against all their parents were doing. They wanted to break away from the fashion fads, for instance. so they all started wearing blue jeans and sweatshirts and promptly started a fashion craze that is making people millionaires two decades later. Everybody rebelled to the point they were all back in a majority position but they had the comfort- able feeling they were in the minority. That's how it is today among the well-educated. middle-class liberal groups. They have created their own majority within their minority. None of them would have the courage to say they went to church on Sunday or that they liked that "harmless little tune." They're rebelling against everybody else by creating their own wmfortable majority. So hang in there dull, middle-of-the-road, churchgoing Canadians. They may be looking down on you but those guys arc just as hypocritical as the rest of us. 41. TRICKY PLAY—Broomball players were all over the ice this weekend in Blyth trying to place a score.

(Photo by Hamilton) County wrestles with budget BY SHARON DIETZ Huron County Council wrestled with budgets presented by the county's various committees at its January 29 meeting, in an attempt to hold the overall county budget to an increase of between 15 and 17 percent. Increases in the department budgets ranged from 15 to 27 percent. Warden Fred Haberer told council the county was sbk to slip through last year but in 1981, the council would be faced with some tough decisions regarding budget increases. The county's highways department submitted the budget with the largest county rate increase: 27 percent in a budget of S3,927,500. The increase in the road budget this year was related to significent overruns on two projects in 1980; leaving the department with a deficit for the year of S201,068. on a cash basis. Reeve George Feliloa a of Bayfield questioned the right of the road committee to permit significent overruns which would result in a deficit. County engineer Bob Dempsey answered that unforeseen dif- ficulties had resulted in a larger overrun that anticipatedon the construction of Road 11. Road committee chairman Lloyd Mousseau told council the second overrun was the Auburn Garage replacement and pointed out that It was a one-time project. Once the garage was paid for, said Mr. Moussesu, the road budget could be brought in line next year. The land division committee brought in one of the lower budget increases at 15.1 percent, The committee recommended the Please turn to page 16 THE BLYTH STANDARD, FEBRUARY 4, 1951 — 5 Provincial race in Huron -Bruce With the announcement Tuesday by Huron•Bruce Liberal MPP Murray Gaunt that he will not seek re• election in the March 19 provincial election, a lively race is expected for nominations in all three major parties in the Western Ontario riding. Although no candidates have stepped forward yet to announce their intention to seek the Liberal nomination, Mr. Gaunt said he expects a healthy race between four or five good challengers. No date had been set by Tuesday for a nominations meeting. An early challenger for the NDP nomination in Huron Bruce is Tony McQuail of R.R. I. Lucknow. Mr. McQuail ran for the party in the last federal election but was defeated by Con• servative Murray Cardiff. No other candidates have yet announced their intention to enter the NDP race. Mr. McQuail, who said he decided to run for the party a month ago. was elected 2nd vice-president of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture at its annual meeting in November. There is no final date set for the NDP nomination meeting. but a possible day would be February 7 when a campaign training program for the party is planned in Wingham, according to the candidate. Mr. McQuail said the public seemed to be very receptive to the party in the last election and, with Mr. Gaunt's decision to retire, he feels the NDP's chances have improved. "Murray was very popular, an excellent constituency man, but this (Gaunt's retirement) changes things." explained the NDP candidate." With Murray stepping down it will give the voters a chance to look at the three parties." Mike Snowbelen. of R.R. I. Ripley. announced earlier this week he will seek the Progressive Conservative nomination for the riding. The 33 -year-old farmer and elevator operator is making his first attempt at pro- vincial politics although he has been politically active at the local level. He is currently a member of the Bruce County board of education and is past reeve of Huron township. He said he retired as reeve in December to consider his future in politics before deciding to challenge for the PC nomination. The Huron -Bruce PC are holding their nominations meeting February 12 at the Community Centre in Kincardine. Mr. Snowbelen said he is unaware of any others who have announced their candidacy for the PCS. In the last provincial election in June, 1977, the Conservatives were returned to power with a minorit% government. When premier William Davis dissolved the Legislature Monday there were 58 sitting Conseryatives 34 Liberals and 33 New Democrats. County road budget Continued from page 1 "Unfortunately, due to unforeseen problems," commented Mr. Dempsey, "we came in with a greater aenctt tna n anticipated." All underdrains were replaced along the road last year because the road department prefers to ser them in for one winter; if they bubble, they can be replaced before the road is paved. Despite the department's efforts to learn the number o f drains to be replaced along the road before they proceeded, there were more drains along the road than anticipated. Bad weather also slowed down the road crews especially during the rains in September. The second project which saw a substantial overrun during the year was the construction of the Auburn Garage. The original estimate for the garage of S400,000. did not include the cost of buying the land or relocation of the radio tower and additional costs. The original estimate was the cost of the building alone and the final cost of replacing the garage is close to 5700,000. Mr. Dempsey told council anticipated revenues will reduce this overrun, such as the sale of the old property, and the sale of the well on that propertyibutthese cannot be budgeted because they could be misleading. Mr. Dempsey reminded council that it was decided to build a more expensive building because the overhead and maintenance would be low. In presenting the 1981 County Highways Budget to council, Mr. Dempsey noted that an attempt had been made to reduce the county rate to a recommended level by reducing and eliminating proposed expenditures in 1981. RATE UP 27 PEICENT The county rate in that 1981 budget rose 27 percent from S1,281,000. to S1,629,500. Cut from the budget was the resurfacing of County Road 20 from Huron County Road I, west into Ashfield Township, a total of four kilometres, at a saving of $157,000. A revised estimate on the completion of Road 11 from Whalen's Corner, north four kilometres, has been reduced from $145,000. down to $130,000, A review of equipment replacement found that the replacement of one truck could be held over one year realizing a saving of $25,000. The county engineer pointed out he is reluctant to cut resurfacing projects from the budget because the county is failing behind in its resurfacing. If the county resurfaces 10 k's a year, it would take 24 years to resurface all existing paved roads in the county. The aniticpated life of a paved road is only IS years, said Mr .. Dempsey. "1 am concerned that if we maintain the present resurfacing policy. we will work ourselves into a box in the future where we will not be able to maintain service unless we do more than 10 miles a year." observed Dempsey. NO MORE MILES "While we arc spending more dollars, we are not getting any more miles of resurfacing for the increased costs." he added. Several councillors objected to the 27 percent increase in the 1981 road budget pointing out that if all budgets come in with such an increase, it would be impossible for the county to maintain the desired overall 15 • 17 percent increase in the county budget. Lloyd Mousseau, chairman of the 1981 road committeertold council that the increase in the budget this year is directly related to the replacement of the Auburn Garage which is "a one shot deal". Once the garage is paid for, said Mr. Mousseau, the road budget can be brought in line next year. County Engineer Dempsey suggested several alternatives could bring the budget down. If council resurfaces Road 20 and omits the paving of Road 11, the budget could be lowered to an increase of 14 percent. Mr. Dempsey pointed out,however, that if Road 20 is not paved in 1981, it will have to be maintained as a gravel road at a cost of about S15,000. The cost of paving it in 1982 would also be higher because of the steady increase In petroleum prices. Another alternative,said Mr. Dempsey, is to eliminate the resurfacing dread 16 which would bring the budget increase to 10 percent. DON'T CUT CONSTRUCTION Mr. Dempsey asked council not to cut construction projects such u the planned construction of Road 17 from the Perth Boundary, west to Winthrop. He explained that the present labour force is required to maintain the county's road system in the winter. If construction projects are eliminated there will be an impact on the county's labour force and experienced men will be laid off. Once that happens, said Mr. Dempsey, we'U lose experienced men. To eliminate paving or resurfacing projects from the 1981 program would not have the same effect, said Mr. Dempsey. because these jobs are tendered to outside companies. Warden Fred Haberer suggested that council's approval of the road budget would not be final because it still must go to the executive committee for approval. Council accepted the budget. 6 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, FEBRUARY 4, 1981 Over 100 help Penfounds ncome Nearly 100 women and girls gathered last Friday evening in the Auburn Com• munity Memorial hall for the community shower for Mr. and Mrs Lloyd Penfound and family.

After the reading and adopting of the minutes, a few quiet moments were observed while the minister read the names of members and adherents deceased during the past year. Following a review of the County budget problems Continued from page 5 fee for all approved severances he raised from S75. to 5100. resulting in increased revenues of approximately S3,000. Reeve Bill Elston, Morris Township, told council that land severances were a "bona • fide part of county planning." He objected to the person wanting the severance being asked to bear the burden. County clerk -treasurer Bill Hanly pointed out that the county is subsidizing each fee more than 50 percent. WHY SUBSIDIZE? Reeve Paul Steckle of Stanley Township said he is opposed to severances and remarked that the county cannot continue to subsidize those who are benefiting from the severances. He said he would not he opposed to having those wanting severances pay half of the administration fee. Council referred the matter to executive ;'ommittee which will consider the land division budget and can make re. commendations regarding the fee.

Dr. Brian Lynch, Medical Officer of Health, told council more realistic figures would be an available at the end of February when it would he brought to council. He said the figure in the budget was an educated guess, but that he was certain when the figures were available, the furnishings and equipment would cost less. Reeve Fellows commented that he did not like using expanded figures because this permits the expenditure to increase to meet that figure.. He said he did not like this kind of budgeting. County clerk treasurer Bill Hanly told the council members that the figure of S45,000. was realistic for the type of facility and number of staff at the health building. Mr. Hanly remarked that considering the type of building and staff requirements, the cost of furnishings and equipment could well be 550,000. so therefore the budgeted figure of 545.000. was a realistic figure.
