Harris Pettier,. a cousin of Bill Harris of Ripley. Harris served in the Navy dur­ ing World War II, and suffered a fractured Hip while abandon­ ing ship in the Bay of Biscay. He* clung to a raft for many hours beforebeingrescueaandwas taken to London, England, where another cousin, Capt. John D. Munn’ was stationed. .Overseas, Harris twice had the hip set, and back in' Canada he twice more underwent similar operations. At first it was thought he would never, walk again; but his final recovery was miraculous and he now has only a trace of a limp. This story was the basis of the telecast. Mr. and Mrs. Pottier and son flew to Hollywood to toe tele­ vised. lated interest for the Highways Reserve account, bringing the total to $93,000 held in the High- 'ways”Re^rve. Befofe7the7~end^ of7 the year it was necessary to sell $15,000 Wo^th of these bonds to provide additional funds for high- wayspurposes. -— According to the report of the Keeper, Mr. R. I. Wiles, the num­ ber of inmates at present in the Home for the Aged is 49, of whom' 28 are meh and 21 Women. There were 10 deaths among the inmates during the year. The County assessor, Mr. Ever­ ett Finnigan, reported that the work of re-assessing; had been carried out in seven municipali­ ties in 1952, the municipalities in , question being Port Elgin, Tees­ water, Mildmay, Huron, Culross, Kinloss, Carrick, Walkerton and Lucknow. • The Agricultural committee re­ commended the continuation of the campaign to eradicate "the common- barberry ' aind 71eaty Spurge, and that the County Weed Inspector toe allowed to spent $500.00 on chemical weed killers necessary for; thoir eradi­ cation. It also recommended that every township in the County continue the warble fly spraying campaign, as Warble fly control is considered by the committee a most worthwhile piece of work. The Committee further recom­ mended that ihe fox...bounty be continued in Bruce County as in 1952, and that, as coons have be­ come increasingly destructive to crops, that the Province remove restrictions on destroying coons so" that they may be destroyed at any timfe of the year. A provisional mill rate of 11 mills was adopted subject to re­ vision at the June session, when the rate will toe struck. This would mean an increase of half a mill in t|ie County rate. The' Highways committee re­ port disclosed that it is the, in- teritibri to again, spray the weeds for, 27 years and, now at the age 77 of 68, confines his ^duties pretty much th that of caretaker of the Bank of .
