Blyth ups taxes H ?
Volume 90 — No. 23
Storage shed approved
with 5 conditions
Blyth council had some heated discussion
Thursday evening where a group objected to
the proposed building permit on a piece of
land zoned residential but to be used as
storage for a construction firm here in Blyth.
The permit taken out under the name of
Dianne Wasson would allow the building to
be located behind the Radford building on
Queen Street -
Co uncil in an attempt to allow residents
within 400 feet of the site to voice opinions
sent out notices of its intention to grant the
permit.
Attending the meeting on Thursday to
discuss the pros and cons of the permit were
Jack and Doreen McGee. Bill and Nicki
Aitken, Bruce Richmond, Pat and Jim
Bringham, Mary Warwick, Chris Borgal.
Edith Logan and her daughter Effie Steven-
son. and councillors Bill Howson, Bill
Manning and Helen Gowing along with
Reeve Tom Cronin.
Doug Scrimgeour presented an overall
plan for the site complete with map and
details on size and location on the lot.
Some questions were asked and recom•
mendations concerning location of doorway
for the building and the possibility of a green
belt area around the building to help it blend
into the residential area were mentioned.
The major complaints were concerned
with housekeeping and several residents in
the area were worried that the building
would be used for more than storage and
could deteoriate to become an eyesore.
Some complained about the amount of
traffic on the street now blocking drisew ays
and impc ding traffic on the street. Mr.
Scrimgeour's plans call for a parking area to
alleviate the problems.
The official plan for the village is still in
"the works" and being held up by the
irregularities in the flood plan mapping.
Blyth has been using guidelines to keep the
proposed plan in effect.
At that meeting the permit was leftin
abeyance pending legal advice to council.
At a special meeting Saturday morning
council approved the building permit with a
site plan agreement George Radford con
struction and Dianne Wasson are to sign a
letter of commitment for the five points
reccomended.
The building is to he used as age only
and the parking arca k restrictt.d to light
vehicles including cars. vans and `, ton
trucks. Roadways and lanes arc to he kept
clear and dust is to be kept under control.
The fifth point stipulates that the prcnost• ,
be kept in an orderly manner.
Blyth athletes clean up
at area track meet
Blyth students cleaned up at the area
track and field meet last Tuesday. Fifty
athletes from Blyth Public School travelled
to Seaforth High School to compete in the
Central Regional Field Day. Schools compel•
ing in the meet were Blyth, Hullett. Clinton,
Clinton Christian, Seaforth and Huron
Centennial.
Local athletes got off to a slow start in the
relay races, with only one Blyth squad
winning its division -the midget boys group
of Dan McDougall. Dave McClinchey,
Graham Glousher and Brent Scrimgeour
placed first. Other divisions copped a
second, three thirds, a fourth, and two fifths
among the six schools. This left Blyth in
third place, behind Clinton and Hullett by
the end of the relays.
In the individual events, the Blyth athletes
gained steadily in points accumulation, and
by mid-afternoon four school were in the
running for top spot.
With three events remaining Blyth ath-
letes were in sole possession of top spot in
the meet, and they held the top position for
the remainder of the day.
Top point scorers in the meet were: Senior
(13 yr,) boys -118 points; Midget -1l0 yr)
boys -8' points: Intermediate (12 yr) girls -h2
points: Junior (11 yr.) girls -`s4 points.
Points were awarded for 1st to loth place
on a 10,8.6,4.2.1 basis.
Outstanding individual performances
were put for by Kevin Ler, Senior Boys'
Champ who won ail but one of his eight
events.
Danny McDougall. Midget Boys' Champ
was top 10 year old point -getter.
Sharon Brown. Intermediate Girls' Run-
ner-up.
Lisa McDonald. Pauline Webster, Selina
Hubbard. Nicole Brooks, Julie Howson,
Steacy Elliott. Steve and Michelle Aitche•
son. Jeff Roetcisoender, Patrick Hulley,
Dave Sparling, Kevin Scrimgeour, John
Liebold and Brent Scrimgeour had excellent
individual event showings.
The parents, staff and the rest of the
students have every reason to be proud of
these hard-working athletes who gave their
best in representing Blyth. Well done, kids!
Blyth council accepted a
15.1 percent increase in tax-
es Monday night when it
approved its budget for 1981.
Education costs account
for 44 per cent of the tax
hike, an increase to 596,453
from 187,639.
Although council approved
the budget u laid out, with
the increased education
costs, it is ititill interested in
hearing from representative
John Elliott on the matter.
Mr. Elliott was unabk to
attend the meeting but will
be extended another invita-
tion to answer questions
from council concerning in-
creased education costs.

The high cost of paving is
limiting the number of
streets being done this year.
Work has been authorized
totalling 1103,000 for paving
this summer, with the pro-
vince kicking in a grant of
142,100 and the Ministry of
the Environment adding an
additional 115,715.
Other increases in expen-
ditures included administra-
tion, up 55,000 to reflect the
increase in fin calls. For
fires in Blyth it costs 5175, up
from 1100. The total spent,
including money paid to
council, is now 130,600.
Council put 12,000 aside
for a fire truck purchase in
the future. Fire area board
representative Bill Howson
pointed out that of the muni-
cipalities that make up the
area fire board, Blyth is one
of the few preparing for the
outlay that a new fire truck
will demand.

An area just west of
Seaforth is part of a corridor
in four of six expansion plans
under consideration by On-
tario Hydro, and if the area is
chosen, one local farmer is
pessimistic about the
chances of forcing a reversal
of the decision.
Nick Whyte, who farms in
Hullett Township. was in-
volved in the attempt to stop
construction of a transmis-
sion line from Douglas Point
south to London in 1975. The
attempt failed, and part of
Mr. Whyte's farm WAS ex-
propriated for the 230 kV
line.
"We certainly resisted
them then, in every way
short of violence," said the
farmer in a phone interview
Tuesday, "and we didn't
stop it."
Mr. Whyte thinks Hydro
prefers to work with existing
corridors. and consequently
expects he may lose more
land this time around.
In 1975, he lost 9.22 acres,
or 120 ft, into his property.
The expanded plans are for a
500 kV double -circuit line.
and Mr. Whyte expects he
could lose between 120 and
150 ft. more of his property.
In sketches of Hydro's
proposals, the Village of
Blyth appears to be on the
eastern boundary of the
Bruce -Huron plan. Both
Blyth and Brussels are sub.
stantially south of the two
remaining proposed corn•
dors. which run north of

Everyone is talking about

the things that are being said
are not very encouraging
Interest rates are was up.
The dollar is plunging. Gas

It costs more to have ()HIP
coverage. Taxes are going
up.
Things don't seem to he
going too well if you look at
life from a material point of
view. It is bad enough not to
be able to afford the things
you want but it seems that
even the things we need arc
too expensive. This state of
affairs causes a lot of people

doesn't solve the problem.
Our minds need to he clear in
order that we can take our
lives in hand and deal res.
ponsibly with our situation.
Jesus had a formula for
just such times as these. 'E o
not worry about your life,
what you shall eat or drink,
or about your bods, what sou
shall wear Is not life more
important than food. and the
body more important than
clothes. , ...Who of you by
worrying can add a single
hour to his life -",..But seek
first (the Kingdom of God)
and his righteousness, and
all these things will be given
to you as well (Matt. 6:25,
33. NIV)
Now, don't be like the man
who sat in the middle of his
living room rug and waited
for God to supply all his
needs. Things got worse
because he wasn't letting
God work through him. He
lost everything he had in the
first place and gained no-
thing by his exercise. God
knows what you need before
you ask (Matt. 6:8) and is
willing to help you with those
needs.
We need to tap into God's
supply and experience His
rich spiritual and material
blessings. He frees us from
worry about the present sit-
uation. shows us the steps
we must take and then
supplies, sometimes mira-
culously, those things we
need most.
Jesus is the only way to the
Father and his storehouse of
blessings. Be assured, in the
words of the apostle Paul,
"...my God shall supply all
your needs according to His
riches in glory in Christ
Jesus. (Phil. 4:19 NiV).

THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 10, 1981 -- A3
From Me to You
By Rhea Hamilton
Some private things
i don't know about you but
there are some things that I
consider private. These arc
things that should not be
tampered with by ousiders or
blasted across the public's
view for picking at.
One of them concerns reli•
gion.
With problems in Ireland
and both men, women and
children being killed all in
the name of religion and the
differences between how we
pray to God, it is hard not to
become involved in the pro.
blems of religion there. Just
how strongly do you have to
believe before your will can
send your child out to the
streets knowing full well that
he may not return. A stray
bullet or a miscalculation on
his part when throwing a
bomb may take his (or her)
life.
But we are not immune to
the difficult questions that
faith puts before us.
A family in Auburn has
come under scrutiny for its
religious beliefs and the
public's attention has been
drawn to them by the media.
DENTED TRANSFUSION
Their faith denies them the
medical help of a blood
transfusion. And it is that
simple denial of one of our
most common medical prac-
tises that may result in the
death of their child.
While 1 don't mean to
condemn or praise, I do
believe that they have the
choice to make themselves
and not for them by people
who don't understand.
The child involved is no
infant and surely must be
aware of the outcome and
what she is up against.
The choice for the parents
alone must be agonizing and
the pressure applied on them
must be hard enough for
them to surely think twice
abou their choice. While
religion must be man's
greatest hope it can also be
his greatest downfall.
We have watched while
millions during the second
world war were annihilated
because of their religion.
Even now the troubles brew•
ing in the middle east stem
from differences in religious
backgrounds and thus an
impasse is created when
trying to form a compromise
that will allow both parties to
live in harmony and peace.
FAITH
We put much store in hos;
our faith in the Lord will
deliver us but that faith can
insure that a stubborn streak
will be maintained and hind-
er settlements or solutions.
The whole matter of reli•
gion is touchy and personal
because of that. While we all
pray together our faith is
truly our own and cannot be
taken away or subdued once
recognized.
But enough. While I read
about cases in our western
culture that cry inhumanity
to humanity t have to believe
that for every poor deed done
in the name of religion there
are several more being exer-
cised for the well being of
others.
•,sI.
Instant guilt. I was speed-
ily making my way to work
the other day and passed an
officer sitting by the way-
side.
My immediate reaction
was to slow down and swear
softly about this being my ,
first ticket. (Touch wood)
But I wasn't going fast
enough to warrant stopping
and 1 must admit that three
!kilometers over the limit isn't
enough to call for an all out
race for my little car.
, But the minute I see a
black and white I immediate•
ly think I am in the wrong.
Whv?
Monday night while on the
way home, 1 slowed to wave
at an officer in a patrol car.
He was obviously waiting for
some devil speeding along.
Never -the -less he sass my
cheery wave end stared with
a forbidding look after my
car. He probably thought I
was seven sheets to the ss ind
and would need an escort
home if 1 made one wrong
move within the next mile of
his sight.
Which goes to show thAt
while we feel guilty sighting
a police cruiser in our travels
they feel just as suspicious
when we try to be friendly
and wave. 1 guess you can't
win for trying.

Drinking is a problem
If you haven't had a chance to think about the cardiovascular survey
results taken in one of our own Huron County high schools you had better
not waste any more time.
survey, initiated under the guidance of M.,O.H. Dr. Brian Lynch,
recorded that 50 out of 50 students drink alcohol twice a week. And two
students out of that 50 take drugs and 75 percent of those 50 students
smoke cigarettes
Think about it While we argue throughout the school year about what
they read and lust how much should they be learning about the natural
art of sex and knowing their own bodies, these same youngsters are
slowly killing themselves.
Despite our protective attitude and sheltering of them from the harsh
realities, we are sheltering ourselves about the true dangers screaming
from these survey results.
We take it for granted that while the kids are getting more street -wise
in the rural area (one of the last strongholds against the modern
madness), they don't seem to be absorbing all that is taught to them
about their health.
The films, talks and gentle chastising about alcohol and smoking is not
enough.
The old saying 'monkey see money do" has a certain amount of truth
In O. While we may be shocked by the young people, how can they be
anything but immune to the devasting effects of smoking and drinking on
our health When they see the results everyday in their homes and at their
/friends homes
The problem is not with the kids but with their parents, and what are
you going to do about that)

Brothers needed
We have been organized for three years
now. Presently, we have 9 matches and 15
tittle brothers to match up. It seems that
every time we match up a little brother with
a volunteer big brother, we get an additional
one or two new little brother applicants.
We need the community support • we
need your support in Goderich, Clinton,
Bayfield and Blyth to get the word
around for more volunteers.
Please let your people know through your
bulletins and word of mouth.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 10, 1911 — A6
'New hydro line may run near Blyth
Continued from page I
For several reasons farm -
en are irate because the line
proposals were shelved for
six months.
One result of the delay is
the public hearings will be
held during the summer, the
busiest time of the year for
farmers.
Mr. Whyte finds that su-
spicious, and he feels the
same way about the timing of
the release of the proposals.
"I'm suspicious that they
held them off until after the
election," he said, in refer-
ence to the March 19 provin-
cial election.
"It does seem to be popu-
lar to put the garbage in the
opposition's ridings." he
added.
The local hydro route runs
through the ridings of
Murray Elston, Liberal MPP
for Huron -Bruce, and Jack
Riddell, Liberal MP for
Huron -Middlesex. "That's a
hell of a coincidence," noted
Mr. Whyte.
Much of the current con-
troversy, contended the
farmer, a member of the
Huron County Federation of
Agriculture's energy com-
mittee, is "after the fact."
"All the resistance should
have been there before they
expanded Douglas Point,"
he said, "Lots of people
don't like nuclear power, but
they don't put it in Toronto or
London where they need it.
They take prime land."
"As a food producer, it's
obvious there's too much
food around, or it's not
expensive enough, because
they keep taking the land,"
he added.
Blyth man charged
Walter Brown of RR3, Blyth was
charged with careless driving after an
accident of the Queen's Hotel in Brussels on
Thursday night.
The accident occurred when the Brown
vehicle ran into the back of a vehicle driven
by Vera Hastings of Brussels. A passenger
in the Hasting's vehicle, Mary Lowe,
suffered minor injuries.
There wu 1600 damage done to the
Hastings vehicle and 11700 to the Brown
vehicle.
School mandate discussed
"Faith, not fear" wu the underlying
theme of the speech given by Rev. A.
Kuyvenhoven at the spring membership
meeting of the Wingham and District
Interdenominational Christian High School
Society. 112 interested people heard him
explain that the responsibility for teaching
the Christian way of life is a personal
(family) one, but also a corporate (church
and school) mandate. Originally, in United
States and Canada, all schools were owned
and controlled by churches, but over the
last number of years there has been a
growing separation between church and
school, and a trend toward government
control of children's education.
The W.D.I.C.H.S.S. is made up of
parents who are interested in having their
children taught from a perspective which is
in harmony with the Christian view of life
at home. Plans are to form a Christian High
School in the Wingham area in the near

In "Ten Lost Yean",Barry Broadfoot's
book about the Great Depression in Canada,
the people he interviewed expressed over
and over again the disillusionment that the
people they elected, who they trusted to

or not we are headed for similar hard times
at least one thing Is sure: the same
disillusionment is growing.
Inflation is rising, the dollar is falling, the
interest rate is out of tight altogether and
even the experts are arguing about just what
is the answer to the eoonomk problems that
have been building now for nearly a decade.
That is the frightening part. For years we

they wanted.
TURN ON THE TOP
The politicans and bureaucrats too believ-
ed this gospel and government could
"manage" the economy, turning on the tap.
to stimulate things when the economy was
slow, putting the brakes on when things
started going too fast. Now the politicians
and bureaucrats and perhaps more frighten-
ed than anyone else, for being close to the
situation they realize that the rules they've
played the game by so confidently for
decades no longer apply.
The brakes are on to try to stop runaway
inflation and keep the dollar up but the
brakes aren't working. Interest rates are so
high that people would have fainted in
disbelief if you had made a 20 per cent
interest prediction two years ago. Yet it isn't
working. People just keep thinking things
will get worst so they'd better buy now and
inflation just keeps rolling along.
IN cON TROL
Ordinary Canadians would love . to
have the feeling that someone knows what
he is doing. Desperate for that same kind of
feeling Americans turned to Ronald Reagan
u their president, a man who if he couldn't
solve all the problems wu a good enough
actor to make people think he's in control.
Without the euphoria of a political honey•
moon period, Canadians with their Prime
Minister who'd been around for a dozen
years have no such illusions.
We aren't alone of course. In fact we're
considerably better off than most countries.
At its worst, our inflation rate looks puny
besides Israel's 133 per cent'tir Brazil's 115
per cent. People in all countries in the
Western world are being hurt by current
conditions.
The newspapers headline the number of
bankruptcies in farms and small businesses
but these reflect just the tip of the iceburg.
The real problem lies with the number of
people who don't go broke but find they
must sell out or just close down. The
numbers here will be much larger than the
bankruptcy figures if this goes on much
longer.
THE WDt NEBS
Tough as times are, however, there will be
winners. There always are and most of the
time the winners are the same people. The
rich will get rich and the poor get poorer just
like the old song says. Harsh economic
conditions will drive many small businesses
either out of business or into the arms of
larger businesses. Competition will be
reduced; power concentrated. Those with
ready cash loan it at high rates of return
while those without cash who have to borrow
to keep their home or keep their business
running are hit with astromonical interest
charges.
And the worst may be yet to come. Most of
the economic theories of !nday came out of
the Depression years when suddenly the old
economic theories were disproven and there
were no new answers to turn to. There's a lot
of agreement today that the old economic
theories formulated from the experience of
the Depression don't work anymore. The
"experts" are desperately looking for new
answers but will they find them? The
answers to the Depression cane only after
people had lived through it. Will the answers
to current problems only come in hindsight,
after we have lived through it?
Frightening too is the idea that in their
desperation to slow inflation, governments
may have jammed on the brakes so violently
we'll go into an uncontrollable skid. If pendia
start being driven off farms in high
numbers, if small businesses are forced to
close, if people lose their houses because
they can't afford the huge interest payments
on their mortgages may we suddenly find
that in a matter of days or weeks we have
gone from too much growth to an economic
catastrophy like the one seen in the
Depression. We've lived with the shouts of
economic crisis for nearly a decade now and
survived. Let's hope that once again people
are making it sound worse than it really is.

EVEN ON HIGH QUALITY PASTURE.
Protein, energy, fat and fibre are all recognized as
necessary cattle nutrients. But minerals, so essential
in maintaining health, rate of growth and/or high milk
production are frequently overlooked.
If a cow's ration lacks the required level of even a few
minerals, both her milk production and reproductive
capacity will fall. In beef cattle, lower mineral levels
will affect both rate of gain and reproduction.
To help you maintain healthy, efficient herds, your
CO-OP has formulated a complete range of Cattle
Minerals. Each is designed to supplement different
feeding situations throughout the year.
THE CO-OP DIFFERENCE IS QUALITY.
Every CO-OP Cattle Mineral uses the most readily
available source of each mineral. You can buy
cheaper mineral mixes. but none will have the quality
of CO.OP Cattle Minerals— the quality to ensure your

B of E decides on school review
BY JASON AINSLIE
Human biases were the essence of dispute among
members of the Huron County Board of Education on
Thursday afternoon, when the board met for its .final
regular meeting of this school year.
The discussion was over the establishing of a
citizen review committee to oversee school closures
and course cuts, and Director of Education, D.J.
Cochrane, conceded that it is a sensitive issue.
He reminded board members that "each board
must adopt a policy which follows certain Ministry of
Education guidelines and which, after receiving
public input, may or may not lead to a decision to
close a school" cr classroom.
In his policy proposal to the board, Mr. Cochrane
suggested that voting members of a school ac-
commodation review committee would include two
rnembers of a Home and School Association or two
parents of children attending the school in question,
these to be elected at a public meeting; two citizens of
the arta served by the school in question, also elected
at a public meeting; one school board trustee, ap-
Ixllnted by the board chairman, to represent the
public school electors of the area served by the
school; and one trustee, appointed by the board
chairman, from another area.
It was this last provision which caused concern
among some board members.
Board Trustee Frank Falconer opened the debate
saying "this committee would be useless", unless the
final provision allows for three trustees to be ap-
pointed by the chairman of the board.
He suggested the committee should have an equal
number of board trustees as outside members
because "we'd never get a recommendation from
that sort of a committee (two trustees and four
citizens) thata school be closed."
"The top brass (board) doesn't have any say in that
sort of system," he said. "What is our purpose of
being here?"
Board Trustee Jean Adams agreed. "If a parent
has a child in that system, you can't explain closures
or course cuts to him. Parents are biased. People who
come to the public meeting - and you know who they
are going to be - are completely biased. We have to
educate them."
But Trustee Eugene Frayne said "somewhere,
we've got carried away with the power of this review
committee. What we have is the public presenting its
side, its feelings, and bringing recommendations to
the board. The committee has no authority."
"We want the public to be biased," he said, "to
prevent the board from making hasty decisions."
Director Cochrane elaborated on the power of the
committee. He said there are two safety valves on the
route to a school closure: first, there must be ap-
proval from the reviewing committee for any
recommendations to be presented to the board; then
the entire board must approve the recommendations.
"1 weighted the representation specifically to give
the citizenry more say at the committee stage," he
said. "The memo from the ministry requires that the
public have input."
"If we load the curnrnittee with trustees, we'll lose
that input," Trustee John Jewitt said.
Board Vice-chairman Bert Morin said, after
considering the needs of the students and community,
the purpose of the review is to examine details of cost.

Council instructed the

reason council is holding

S100 to the fund that will

Homemakers buy the proper•

Council noted after
lengthy discussion the ser-
vices this .organization
provides in the county.
Council approved a resolu-
tion from Wingham council
requesting that ..aunty coun-
cil permit a delegate to be
appointed from municipal
councils if the first delegate
cannot attend. At present, if
the municipal representative
to county council is ill. no one
may take his place, although
someone could go as a spec-
tator. But he is not a voting
replacement.
Finally, council approved
the hiring of Larry Bailee as
sanitation site superinten•
dent and Robert Brown as
town employee.

Board Chairman Don McDonald reasoned that
where the public elects two people to sit on the
committee, those elected members will be informed
and rational.
Trustee Marion Zinn added some perspective on
the discussion, saying that in the past decade only one

who wished their children to go to schools that had
more to offer.
At the end of the discussion, the board voted to
change the wording et the committee membership
requirements to read that aU of the trustees serving
the area of a proposed school closing will sit on the
committee (be it one trustee or three) as well as one
other trustee not serving that area.
Thecounty's secondary schools were not included
in the discussions because with only five schools
serving the county, chances of a high school closure
are minimal.

ADULT WAININO: Some Language
ENTERTAINMENT M°Y Offensive
possible theatre scene for
Chilliwack, visit Blyth. On-
tario,
Fenwick did, and came
away impressed.
Arriving last week at the
Chilliwack campus of Fraser
Valley College to take up
duties as co-ordinator of the
new theatre program. Fen•
wick hu a lot of desk work to
do before he is ready to start
working on his vision.
But the vision is there.
Blyth, which is a village on
Hwy, 4 near Lake Huron, has
a population of only 900. But
on a Thursday night in the
summer. you cannot find
standing room in its 490 -seat
"theatre" in the community
hall.
The key to Blyth's success
is Canadian drama.
There are a number of
writers living in the region.
Alice Munro, Keith Roul•
ston, Ted Johns and Paul
Thompson, whose plays
"1837" and "The Farm
Show" have become classics
of modern Canadian theatre.
"They were country
bumpkins who went down to
the city to learn about litera-
ture, and then went hack
home and did theatre that
really speaks to people."
says Fenwick,
Their first season of the
acre involved two plays: the
well-known "The Mouse•
trap" and an unknown local
work.
Audiences stayed away
from "The Mousetrap" in
drove s. But they filled
houses for the "unknown
local work."
Fenwick doesn't remem-
ber the name of that "un-
known local play", and most
of the people in Blyth don't
either. But it changed the
course of theatre in their
town.
From its success, they
decided to drop the "well-
known" plays and concert -
trate on Canadian drama.
They have never regretted
it.
Even the people who do
not care about theatre are
happy about what has hap-
pened in Blyth. where they
are beginning to experience
the commercial "spin-off"
from the arts.
"Across the street there is
a place that sells local
crafts." says Fenwick, "It is
a really nice boutique.
There's a pottery studio
down the road." "The ladies
of the village hold country
barbecues, corn roasts and
chop frys. Other villagers
offer bed and breakfast for
people who come 10 the
OWL"
"The theme is 'come to
lite country for a few days."
"And people come," Fen•
wick said.
When he talks about the-
atre in Blyth. it is clear that
lan Fenwick's vision of the-
atre is truly "lively" art -one
that actively contributes to
the life of the community.
He also wants local theatre
to draw its life from the
community.
"1 don't know yet what are
the characteristic stories of
this area," he says, "but 1
know they're there. I can feel
k."
Fenwick wants the college
theatre program to use that
local identity as material for
stage plays.
Ultimately. he would like
to have a writer -in -residence
who would spend a year with
the college theatre program,
and during that year would
produce a play about valley
life.

Farm wives are topic
BY RHEA HAMILTON
While farm wives have
been working alongside then
husbands for years u part-
ici' that contribution has not
been recognized u such un
til the recent change in the
Family Law Reform Act.
Lawyer Gay Stewart pant-
ed out to Huron Federation
Agriculture members Thurs•
day evening that in the past
if a wife did not have her
name on the deed then the
court. at time d separation,
would have to determine the
intent d the couple towards
sharing the farm.
But the courts were hard.
pressed to split the family
assets this way and would
extend that assumed intent.
ion but it was too flexible. In
1975 the Ontario legislature
acted to recognize marriage
as a partnership and ruled
that materials acquired dur-
ing the marriage be shared.
Miss Stewart gave some
interesting situations and
pointed out how they would
be handled under the new
family law reform law.
The courts try to avoid
windfall benefits. Her ex-
ample:"a sweet young thing
marries an cider established
farmer and after two months
leaves and sues for half of his
5300,000 farm."
In a cue like that the ooze rt
would look at what valuable
wets she brought into the
marriage and gauge their
response by . that. Other
wets include contents d the
home, vehicles, cottage with
the emphasis on the matri-
monial home. But on the
matter of acreage, the ,act is
vague Miss Stewart pointed
out.
A hobby farm of 50 acres
could be declared full matri-
monial home and divided
equally. But a user test
comes into play.
if a woman contributes
the actual wort on the land or
barn while still maintaining
her home (house) duties she
could still be entitled to put
of say the 400 acres d land
around outside d the ma-
trimonial home.
While everything is divid-
ed equally the act is flexible
ta avoid inequalities.
"We start at a 50-50 basis
instead of with nothing,"
said Miss Stewart. items like
farm equipment, personal
investments or valuable hob-
bies could be included in the
non -family asset category
and in that cue there is not
an automatic 50-50 split.
Miss Stewart cited the
Murdoch case where the wife
wonted beside her husband
and received nothing in
settlement. As a hired hand
she would have been paid
but as a wife she worked for
nothing. This extreme case
led to fairer settlements. But
the courts have eased back
and judges are now looking
for a substantial contribution
to the farm before awarding
assets to the spouse.
Spouses also have what is
termed a right of possession.
While their name might not
be on the deed they still have
the right to the matrimonial
home until they give up the
right or the court decides
they no longer have the
right.
The home cannot be mart
gaged or sold without the
consent of the spouse and it
is very difficult to lose this
right as it is laid out in the
art,
Marriage contracts are not
as popular as we are led to
believe. Miss Stewart point•
ed out that in the law firm
where she works only six
marriage contracts have
been written in three years
by the seven lawyers who
work with her. While you
can't contract out custody of
children you can determine
ownership of your material
,ssets. The contract is only
valid between married
spouses and is used to
determine how the property
and assets are split.
"Primarily the contract is
used in second marriages to
protect the first family," said
Miss Steward.
In any situation where a
young farmer marries and
his wife is not interested in
firming a contract could be
used to protect the farm with
a stipulation that after five
years the contract be auto-
matically void.
"But how romantic is it to
it down and decide who will
get what before the marriage
is compkte or even after?'
acid Miss Stewart.
While custody and support
in common-law relationships
is taken into consideration in
the Family Reform Act pro-
perty is not.
„But courts are looking at
oommoe•law situations dif-
ferently," Mins Stewart said.
"It is wise that we all know
where we stand oe a bask
situation." Mks Stewart ex-
plained, "What happens de-
pends on you but the courts ,
try to be flezibk and give
basic rights to both men and
women. "
The audience, composed
half of women, asked quest-
ions concerning bankruptcy,
divorce, and liens on pro-
perty.
On the natter of mechan-
ic' lien Mks Stewart said
that if you are having con-
tract work done you are
entided to withhold 15 per
cent of payment until 37 days
have passed. That is an
insurance against liens plac-
ed upon your home or
P'opertY
The example used was a
case where a coupk had
apboards installed in their
home and paid the contractor
the full bill.
Before the 37 days had
passed the suppl kr of the
cupboards to the contractor
slapped a lien on the couple's
home for his bill. The
supplier can only recover 15
per cent from the couple
even though they paid the
contractor in full. Therefore
withholding the 15 per cent

BARTHOLOMEW AND
THE OOBLECK
By Dr. Saes
The king was tired of the
same otd things that fell from
the sky. Every year it was the
same: rain, fog, snow and
sun, He wanted something
different, and he got it with
the help of his magicians.
Oobleck was falling all over
the kingdom. it was gooey,
gummy like glue and soon
the whole kingdom was stuck
with the bright green mess.
What can poor Bartholomew
do?

from the contractor saves
them from additional costs if
the need arises.
If more than one supplier
s involved the couple would
still only pay 15 per cent an
let the suppliers divide it to
their own way. "The kw is
very exact and there are
definite time limits in which
b file and after that the liens
are invalid."
On a question of how much
debt is a wife responsibk for
Miss Stewart said if the
husband goes bankrupt the
ife should follow suit to
dear the liabilities. if she is
working the bank could sue
her or garnishee her wages
for the uncleared debt.
Mins Stewart hu been
practising kw for two years
with the flim d Mountain
and Mitchell in Stratford.
Gerry Fortune, president
at Huron F d A, reported on
the meeting in Toronto that
day with members of the
federal and provincial gov-
ernments to discuss econ-
omic problems facing Ontar-
io farmers. Mrs. Fortune
noted that 1,100 attended the
meeting while 500 had been
expected. She gave short
comments on the speakers
and said Premier Bill Davis,
Ontario said nothing, along
with federal ag minister
Eugene Whalen. OFA pre-
sident Ralph Barrie chaired
the meeting and opened with
the comment that the farm-
er's greatest blunder was to
go on producing for those
who don't cart.
Brian Ireland, president of
the Bruce Federation, spoke
an his awn personal farming
situation and caught the
attention of the media quick-
ly! said Mrs. Fortune, with
'We are not mushrooms to
be kept in the dark and fed
horse s...."
Baine Pym, Agricrew co-
crdinator, outlined the pro-
gram for workers and asked
farmers to consider hiring
teams to do some of the work
around the farms. For $90
per day a crew of four will do
everything from picking
stones and mending fences
b haying and this year they
will be abk to take feed and
soil samples. Fa more infor-
mation phone the OMAF
dries, Clinton.
Ontario Hydro hu finally
teleaaed its report on pro -
resod hydro corridors u
Tony McQuail drew up
resolution asking the OFA
b request the government to
have Hydro adjust its time-
tabk for the report. The
report wu initially to be
rekased last fall. Hydro and
government have been en -
waging public input into
the study and are proposing
all material to be in by
September. Mr. McQuail
pointed out that warmer
being the busiest time of the
year for the farming com-
munity it would be difficult
for farmers to get together to
study the report and give
their input.
Because the report was so
long in being released Mr.
McQuail felt the rush for the
results could be delayed.

Blyth tourney
a green success
The annual Blyth Open
Golf Tournament drew close
to forty golfers out to the
Wingham Golf Club on Mon-
day night.
The golfers completed
their nine holes between five
and nine p.m. Prizes are
donated by Blyth merchants
and from the golf kitty (funds
raised previously).
The top three winners and
their scores are John Bateson

be transferred to the recre-
ation committee, up from the
conservative 58,000 last
year. Council commented on
the ikkreased costs of heat•
ing and hydro bills for the
Memorial Hall and felt that
the money spent on addition-
al insulation this spring
would show this winter in
decreased heating and hydro
bills.
The problem stemmed
from the newly installed heat
pumps malfunctioning last
winter and auxiliary heat
being forced into the hall

electrically. The problem has
been looked into and the
council appears hopeful for
lower costs next winter.
This is the first year that
the Memorial Hall debenture
has not appeared on the
books. The final payment of
52,093 was made last year.
The debenture was raised to
cover the cost of a new roof to
the hall.
On the revenue side of the
balance sheet,council noted
an decrease in the road
rebate grant from the county.
Clerk Larry Walsh explained
the portion of Blyth's rebate
is determined by road pro-
gram costs, which are up for
the county.
The per capita grant re•
cetved from the province of
Ontario hu decreased from
56,538 to 56,426. This is
because Blyth's population
hu decreased and the village
is awarded approximately S7
per resident. While the fi-
gures at the north end of the
village state we have 1,000
population, the true figures
indkate that we are down to
918 from 934.
The resource equalisation
grant from the province is
also down 1300 to 327,813,
but the general support grant
is up from $7,055 to 18,016.

Making
changes
to a
watercourse?
Barney Stewart
The waters of rivers, streams and creeks belong to everyone.
Improper use of the watercourses which carry these waters may
result in the following?
- irrigation and drainage problems for neighbours
• destruction of aquatic and wildlife habitat
- reduced recreational opportunities
- erosion and flooding problems
Whenever permanently flowing watercourses are to be altored in
any woy including damming, diverting, and channelizotion,
Federal and Provincial lows require that the approval of the
Ministry of Natural Resources be obtained.
As a first step in planning any work on a watercourse, contact us.
Our staff will be glod to discuss possible design and layout alter-
natives which will minimize future problems for you, your neigh-
bour and public in general.

25 In Memoriam
In loving memory of a dear
mother Ruth Thuell who
passed away June 3. 1917
and a dear father Wm.
Thuell who passed away
June 29, 1976.
Their end was very sudden.
It made us weep and cry,
But the saddest part of all.
Was we didn't say goodbye.
Our hearts still ache with
sadness.
And our silent tears still
flow,
For what it means to lose
them
No one will ever know.
Sadly missed .by daughter
Violet and family.
