GODERICH. County council
at its March session authorized
grants totalling $21,114,, 'of ' ;,
which $9,464 represented grants

A donation'that wasn't made

are trying to get on the gravy train.
We haveto determine which is
our home university, and I think
the concensus of the majority of ' •
the committee was that the Univ-

University of Waterlog will serve
this county fully in all phases of•

quest was rejected.by the comm-
ittee f'in view of the extent to
which' we 'are committed in the
field' of care. for senfar citizens
at Huronview. '
'Deputy reeve Delbert Geiger,
of Hay suggested that county cou-
ncil "take another look at this
"°building, which when convicted .
will be entirety out of the talc
payer's' hands. The founders des-
erve a aot of credit for their cour-
age in starting it, and it would
not'be any more than fair if the
Country 'would make a gift over
five years, or however they saw
fit, We have so many people of •
an age, now, with fixed incomes,.
who are.going to find it More, . w
difficult to carry on their own `.
housekeeping, that we are going
to need many. more of these home]
'throughout the county. • I Suggest •
a ' donation' of $10,009 to this , .
home, spread over three to five
year's.,,
Speaking ,as `a member of the,
finance committee, Rev. ,�hilip
Gandon, Exeter; said: "If we are,
going to make '• a .giant or gift
to'this.home, there is no reason
why a similar'home cannot be
