Area communities slighted to participate in grain drive Sev -a, area congregations have decided tt participate in the Canadian Foodgrains Bank's Ontario Corn Drive. The Foodgrains Bank is an interdenominational organiza- tion that operates through the links already forged overseas by its nine partner chur- ches. That enables the CFGB to keep ad- ministration costs low when providing food for emergency relief and for work in long- term development projects. Participating congregations are now busy with fund raising in order to meet the early March shipping deadline. Hensall Co -Op has graciously offered to help with the bagging operation. This shipment is designated for Mozambique, a country where the need is great. Donors may give either cash or corn through a participating congregation or by contacting any of the following committee members: Brucefield U.C.-A1 Hill; Egmondville U.C.-Ken Carnochan; Kippen U.C.-Gary Love; Hensall U.C.-Ian McAllister; Northside U.C.-Don McKer- cher; Ontario St. U.C.-Ken Rogerson; St. Andrew's U.C.-Doug Wallis; St. Thomas Anglican Church -Barb Palin; Wesley -Willis U.C.-Kay Whitmore. All donations are mat- ched 3:1 by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). ' This community has a history' of working closely together on local projects; now we have a chance to work closely together on a project to help others.

The board's discussion represented the enormous complexity of the issue, and no consensus of opinion among the trustees could be reached. The board came up with no .comments to send to the OPSBA by the February 8 deadline, but instead passed a motion re- questing the OPSBA develop a model to show the effects a 12 month school year would have on the education system and on society. Huronview • from page 1 pen if council rejected all three options. According to the report considered by council Thursday, renovating Huronview in accordance with a four-year-old consul- tant's study would still cost the county the same mpney, $890,000 a year, but over five years instead of eight. The total cost to the county, however, would have been about $4.5 million instead of $7 million. FEWER BEDS NEEDED Option three, renovating all but the south wing while building 40 -bed facilities in the north and south, would cost the county $800,000 for each of the next eight years, while providing a greater number of beds; 266. Each of the other proposals would pro- vide 220 beds. But recent statistics indicate that admis- sions to seniors facilities are declining as numerous meal, transportation, nursing and other home care services become available to keep elderly residents living in their own homes. This means fewer beds would be re- quired than currently available at Huronview. Council also heard that plans are pro- ceeding to rent one wing of the existing Huronview building to the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, which now has offices in Clinton. But there were no answers to questions raised by several councillors about what may happen to the remainder of the facili- ty. A recent suggestion that the county would move its offices from the Goderich Courthouse to Huronview was not mention- ed Thursday. Beo ' emenio from page 2 reached out school.
