In accordance with custom and the Municipal Act, Clerk - Treasurer, John G. Berry pre- sented the finacial report for the general account of Huron County as of June 30th, 1966, noting that there was a sur- plus of $13,443 and it appears that the majority of the ac- counts of the departments were within their budgets. "Even in the Health Unit we appear to be holding our own," he said, "although we have had•some unexpected ex- penses and there will be a few more before the year is com- plete. In this particular de- partment, for instance, we have been fortunate in engag- ing a new Medical Officer of Health (at a salary of $15,000 per year) , but at the same time, we are obliged to pay his expenses to Canada. This will be an added expense which was not budgetedfor at the beginning of the year." Mr. Berry said he did not" anticipate that the surplus would be as large as shown at the end of June. "However, if everything goes as planned, we should still end up with a small surplus for the year." The treasurer continued, "The year 1967 appears to be bringing with it some more financial problems, There un- doubtedly will be an adjust- ment in connection with the monies received from the Cen- tralia Air Base. Without the monies from the government, it could mean each municipal- ity wilI have to contribute more to compensate for this loss.. We hope, however, that something will develope in this area, and that our pres- ent drop in the economy will be offset by something new. Also in 1967, we will start paying the debentures for the new addition, to 1 uronview; we might be able to divert some of the hospital reserve money to counterbalance this additional cost. I suggest that the hospitals in the county be contacted to find out what their future plans are, so that we can plan our financing 'concerning this particular re- serve fund." Mr. Berry stated that In this reserve fund there was on de- posit at the present time: bank deposit receipt, 5 per cent due November 15, 1966, $50,000; City of Sault Ste. Marie, 51/2 per cent due Dec. 15, 1966, $5,500; City of St. Catherines, 51/2 per cent, due Dec, 15, 1966, $6,900; County of Huron 6 per cent, due May 1, 1967, $29,000; total $91,400. Wingham Reeve on Road Committee Joseph Kerr, veteran reeve of Wingham, was appointed a member of . the important roads committee at the Sep- tember session of H u r on County Council held in God- erich on Friday. • He replaces Robert Gib- son, who has resigned ,from County Council as reeve of Howick to take the post of R o a d;. Superintendent, and will serve the balance of Mr. Gibson's term, that is, until the end of 1969. Mr. Kerr was a member for a five year term several years ago. Harold Robinson, who had stepped up. to the reeveship of Howick from deputy reeve, contested the appointment with Mr. Kerr. He was- nom- inated by Stewart • Proctor, Morris, while Mr. Kerr was put forward by Bordon Cook, Blyth. Addressing Council mem- bers, Mr. Kerr said he had al- ways been interested in roads and recalled that in times past there had usually one urban member on the Road Commit- tee. Mr. Robinson- stated that when Mr. Gibson resigned he said he would. liketo see Howick represented on the road committee for the re- mainder of his term since it was the ,township. that had been h6nored. Council divided 26-13'. in favor of Mr. Kerr. For Kerr: Alexander, Boyd, Boyle, Cook, Cuthill, Dalton, Etherington, Gandon, Geiger, Jim Hayter, Jewell (two), Noakes, Snell, Stewart, ' Tal- bot,. Thiel, Duff Thompson Wonch; total 26. For Robinson: Corbett. Dunbar, Hardy, Elmer Hay- ter, Hendrick, Jefferson, Mc- Iiwain, McMichael, Proctor, Robinson, Smith, Stirling; El- gin Thompson; total 13. County road committee now consists of D. McKenzie, Ash-. field, chairman; Grant Stir- ling, Goderich Township; Del- bert Geiger, Hay; Joseph Kerr Wingham; Jim Hayter, Step- hen. Now Resides in Exeter - Wed Sixty Years Mr. andrMrs. Charles O'Brien Anne St., Exeter, celebrated their diamond wedding anniver- sary Sunday with a family din- ner at the Dufferin Hotel, Cen- tralia. Mr. and Mrs. O'Brien were married at. Oxbow, Saskatche- wan, 60 years ago. Mrs. O'Brien was the former Elizabeth Tin- ney of Hay Township. She and her husband were childhood playmates for he, too, was a native of Hay township, but moved with his, family to the west when a young man of 20. They farmed in • Saskatchewan for some time following their marriage but returned and farm- ed in Tuckersmith Townsh:p in 1936. They retired to Exeter in 1956.

Huron Councillors Vote Rejects Huron Issue Ad •By a recorded division.of 26- 13, Huron County Council at the September session in the Court House, Goderich, Friday, rejected an amendment to the report of the Warden's and Per- sonnel Committee and adopted the following motion. "We apprpved an advertise- ment being placed in The Lon- don Free Press special Plowing Match Edition, being' a four col- umn olumn advertisement, at a price of $279;._ and, further we did not agree on advertising in the International Plowing Match News, being a publication pre- pare by the Seaforth and Exe- ter pipers. • "The circulation of the Lon- don paper was estimated at 123,000 against 30,000 for the local papers; and furthermore, the London edition would be somewhat more widespread than the proposed International Anniversary' Services CHISELHURST UNITED CHURCH Sun., Sept. 25th 2:30 p.th.

Council went into committee of the whole to consider the committee report, clause by clause. Rev. • J. P. Gandon, deputy reeve of Exeter, who had re- quested clause by clause discus- sion, immediately presented a motion in amendment to the above motion that County Coun- cil approve a half page in the. International Plowing Match News in addition to the space already approved for the Lon- don paper. The amendment was seconded by Mrs. Minnie Noakes, reeve of Hensall. Clarence E. Boyle, reeve of Exeter, pointed out that 100,000 circulation in the City of Lon- don would have little or no bene- fit, where as at least 25,000 of the 30,000 circulation of the Plowing Match New' would go to vitally interested people. The larger circulation didn't mean a thing, he said. The important thing is to reach people who are interest- ed, he felt. Rev. 3. P. Gandon pointed out that the News was, in a sense, the official paper of the Interna- tional Plowing Match, and would go to the farmers• in several counties. "Why should a paper that is produced in .the County not be supported by the County Cour, ells when an Outside paper re, ceives that support?" he asked. "This makes the County Couneil look .a little silly," he declared. '' County clerk -treasurer, J, G.

Donald McKenzie, Ashfield, commented that the price was terrific anyway". He pointed out that County Council had advertised the Plowing Match sodturning in the local papers. James Hayter, Stephen, said several had placed advertise- ments in the Plowing Match News; he figured the London paper could look after the County. Mrs. Minnie Noakes, Hensall, was very much to the point. "Don't •forget that -we're serv- ing'all of Huron County. Aside from the cost, it is, only coin - mon courtesy to give ,our two Huron • County papers a little bit of consideration. In answer to a question, dep- uty clerk -treasurer, B. G.

This despite the fact that in every field . of the performing and creative arts, Canada since Confederation has produced tal- ents that have won acclaim the world over. Countless canvases by Canadi- an artists hang in places of hon- or in such famed houses as the Louvre, London's Tate Gallery, and even Moscow's . Museum of Modern Art.

Roberts' best known work is "Orion.,and Other Poems,' published in 1880, and it exerted' tremendous influence on the verses of Wil- liam W. Campbell, Archibald Lampman, and Bliss Carman. A contemporary poet with a grow- ing following here and abroad is the dynamic Irving Layton. There are few nations where readers have not delighted in the • gentle humor of Stephen Leacock.
