MacNaughton has just announced that he has designated as Devel- opment Roads for pre-engineer- ing two sections of county road mileage in Huron. One is the section of County Road NO, 12 from Egmondville along the main street of Seaforth as far as Goderich Street in that town. The other is that part of County Road No. 3 between Varna and Brucefield, Mr. MacNaughton advised that this action has been taken as a result of the recently-completed County Needs Study carried out by Huron County and is in keep- ing with the financial arrange- ments emanating from the find- ings of that exhaustive study. The Minister stated further that the designation for pre- engineering in Egmondville and in the town of Seaforth has been made to provide for the recon- struction of this street by the county following the installation of sewers by the town of Seaforth as part of that town's major sewer construction program. Under the Direct Aid program of the Department of Highways associated with the County Road Needs Study, all pre-engineering and eligible physical construction costs are borne by the Depart- ment. That's the way to more business profits.

Object of the game was to lure someone's partner away with a wink, while the partner had to grab the beckoned one if possible. It was found most of the kids had to screw their faces into many odd contortions to get out a wink. Above, one girl finds the solution by turning her partner's head away so he can't see the wink, while below one young lady manages to hold her partner down, --T-A photo 11 Clarke clan The Clarke reunion was held at Riverview Park Sunday, August 14.

The book was written by James R. Scott and is titled, "The Settlement of Huron County". The book is an extension of a shorter history by Mr. Scott en- titled, "Huron County in Pioneer Times" which was printed in 1954 and now is in its second edition. The author, Mr. Scott, was born and still resides in Seaforth. He reports that the book is the story of how the County was set- tled and how an imaginative and unique plan was conceived. It tells of the difficulties and suc- cesses which went into the mak- ing of a great county, and of the kind of men and women who were involved as a vast primeval for- est was transformed into rich, productive farm land dotted by large and s m al 1 settlements which were centres of education, religion and commerce. The hardcover book has 328 pages and 16 illustrations and chapters recount the develop- ment of agriculture, the struggle for schools, detailed accounts of the growth of townships and the various towns and villages which began as crossroads. Huron Clerk John Berry re- ported this week that sales of the book were brisk in both Goderich and Wingham. Tom MacMillan indicates that he has ordered a supply of the books and expects to have them on his shelves in the near future for'Exeter area residents. The Goderich office of the Na- tional Employment Service ef- fected an all-time high of 316 placements during the month of July 1966, bringing this year's total placements to 1,075. Place- ments during July 1965 were 189. C. M. Jutras, manager of the Goderich National Employment Service, reported that job open- ings in farm and canning opera- tions together with seasonal in- creases in manufacturing and construction in Goderich and Huron County were primarily re- sponsible for this increase in job placements. At month end, some 56 vacanc- ies for workers, mainly in skilled and semi-skilled occupations re- mained unfilled. Job applicants registered with the Goderich National Employ- ment Service at end of July continued to show a decrease, with 217 persons registered for employment as compared to 285 persons a year ago. The Goderich National Em- ployment Service office serves all of Huron County with the ex- ception of the townships of Grey, Howick, McKillop, Turnberry and Usborne and the town of Sea- forth. If Exeter councillors have their way, there will never be any more doubt that "crime doesn't pay". In a resolution to be presented to the, Attorney-General of On- tario, council suggests that legis- lation should be passed whereby a convicted person would pay all the costs involved in his arrest and bringing him to trial. The action was prompted by several experiences in the past, whereby council have had to pay substantial expenses for local Mt. Carnel bride feted officers travelling long distances to bring suspects back to Huron County jail. Some expenses run as high as $100 to $200. The costs involve the fact an- other policeman must be hired to replace the one away on the trip, as well as the mileage rate for the officer going. Some times, the officer must stay overnight and this brings about accommo- dation and food costs. At present, council receives no additional grant to cover this expense, and none of it is in- cluded in the court costs meted out to convicted persons. The most recent case involving local police is when they had to travel to Prescott in Eastern On- tario to return a prisoner who had taken a car from Exeter. Tenth for Harlton The 10th annual Harlton re- union was held at Melvin Harl- ton's camp ground at Lobo. Forty five relatives were pre- sent coming from Chatham, Brig- den, Seaforth, St. Marys, Grant- on, Shipka and London. Mrs. Clyde Nicholson and Miss Winnie Harlton were in charge of sports.

Air complaints about job loss A meeting of the National De- fence Employees Association, Centralia branch was held at the Exeter Legion Hall last Wednes- day night.

HARVEY WNW= WWWINCZEMINNI I am frequently asked how often to lift and re-plant tulips, here again I go along with nature, some varieties are better at arithmetic than others and multiply faster. As soon as you see the clump is filled in and the blooms are a little smaller, it would be wise to lift and re-plant. The standard procedure is to lift them after the leaves have died and the stems pull readily, then store for Fall planting. Few of us have proper storage, if too damp they mould and spoil, if too dry they spoil. And where is it you plant them? I grow over seventy-five variet- ies and the only time I know exactly where they are is when they are growing, so as soon as they are through flowering and are to be lifted I dig them up, being careful to leave the leaves and stem on the bulb and re-plant them at once, using the largest and healthiest ten or twelve or whatever number I wish in the clump. This way you know what you are lifting and where you are planting. Now nature carries on normally, the life from the leaves and stem go back into the bulb. In the Fall give them a dress- ing of bone meal and sand the same as advised for roses. Tulips can be planted any time in the Fall, in the clay soil here I plant them about ten inches deep. Try a few of each variety, the Darwin tulip, Grenfell of Labra- dor grows an immense flower of bright, rich red on a tall, strong stem. A Lily-FlOwered tulip, Queen of Sheba, is a most unusual color, a mahogany-red with an orange margins Another William Wright and Mr. & Mrs. Jerry Keller, Ronald and Bonnie of Chatham spent the last two weeks in Northern On- tario returning Saturday.

The Tulipa Fosteriana Hybrid, Red Emper- or, is still the most popular variety, it's immense flowers are a dazzling scarlet With a black, yellow bordered base. It blooms in early April.
