Visitors Huron County Pioneer Mus- eum was visited by 22,058 per- sons up to this week, Curator J. H. Neill reported to county council. In midsummer the building was open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week, and 1 p.m. to 9 on ,Sundays. "We are taking from No. 21 Highway about 5,000 visitors a year," Mr. Neill said, "who were never here before and never will be again. I have travelled from coast to coast, and if someone is selling something and his door is open, I go in;. otherwise I drive on. That is our position at the museum. We have 22,000 visitors, Southampton museum something over 1,000. "I have been at this museum work 27 years, and have built 135 models. If I live another 10 years I will; build another 50. That is only one thing in the museum, but they attract much attention. There are many there r '. r. • THE HE U HTER L'\GER.

Mr, , Neill mentioned that a government official had obtain- ed from him a 4ouple of old- fashioned dash churns for an ex- hibit subsequently shown in Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto. He has a photo of the Premier of Quebec operating one of the churns. • There are 6,000 articles on display at the museum which "never was in as good shape be- fore," .the curator said. "As a member of the historic committee," said Reeve Frank Walkom, Goderich, "I would like to compliment Mr. Neill. I had friends visit the museum in the past year, and one of them intrigued by the flour manufac- turing process shown, called it unique. We are very fortunate in having a man, of'•the calibre of Mr. Neill, who does not re- gard his time as valuable, but he is a valuable asset to the town and country." Mr. Neill said there are mo- dels at the museum showing 18 different ways of making flour, and five of them are workable. Report of the committee was presented by Reeve Alvin D Smith, Turnberry. It took note of the fact that of this year's 22,000 visitors to .the museum, about 5,000 came during off hours. "We appreciate the efforts put forth by Mr. Neill and his staff in showing the people through the museum and giving them every possible' attention," the report stated. "We reported some time ago. that we had received a bequest from the Gavin Green estate, and we intend to erect a plagque in memory of the late Mr. Green, in acknowledgment no. only of the bequest but also to remind people of. a fine gentle- man. The history of Huron County is still in progress, as has been reported on many occasions. We have •now reached the point where the., last hundred pages Council Learns. Of . Work Done By Children's Aid In her report to county coun- cil as local director of the Chil- dren's Aid Society, Miss Clare McGowan presented on Tues - ay an outline of the society's protection work. "During last month," she said, "we opened or 'reopened 10 new protection cases for the fol- lowing 'reasons; wife beating; immoral conduct of father; im- moral conduct of mother and in- ability of the father to cope with the children; mental illness of both parents (and no visit- ing homemaker available); al- coholism of father; marital strife and child snatching; child beating; juvenile delinquency; separation of parents causing emotional and nervous strain in the home. "These, are the new families we are working with to keep the children with their parents. This is the most hectic part of our work, and Mrs. Ross does the most of it. If the case is likely to come to - court, Mrs. Ross is the one who handles it, and she does a truly wonderful job. "This part of our work is very important, because it costs far more to take p child into care than to leave hini. in his• own home. We are very grate- ful to the municipalities who understand this and assist the faintly financially over a diffi- cult time.' Laverty and dirty home • are not included in. the definitions of neglect."
