COUNCIL BRIEFS
Council recently paid a $200
bill by mistake, but decided Mon-
day not to attempt to recover the
money.
The bill from a local firm had
been approved with routine ac-
Counts as it was believed it was
for goods provided the town.
However, it was learned later
that the bill had really been for
damage to some of the firm's
Stock due to basement flooding.
Works Superintendent Paisley
reported that an insurance ad-
justor had advised that council
was not liable because the bill
had not been presented within
30 days of the damage. In ad-
dition, damage had resulted on
two occasions.
However, council noted the
firm had made a generous dona-
orderly duties.
Of the $80,000 collected by a
local fund drive about one-third
was received from the village of
Zurich itself. Residents of Stan-
ley township contributed the sec-
ond largest amount with Hay
township finishing third.
tion towards the centennial pro-
ject and in view of this public
spirit decided not to attempt to
recover the $200.
*
The sign at the addition at
SHDHS still notes that the pro-
ject is sponsored jointly by the
federal and provincial govern-
ments,
However, it will be changed in
the "immediate" future or it
won't be there at all. At least
that's the intent of Exeter coun-
cil.
Council want the sign to in-
dicate that area municipalities
also share in the cost of the
project and they authorized Coun-
cillor Joe Wooden to instruct
the SHDHS business adminis-
trator to take proper steps to
have the sign changed or taken
down.

Mayor Jack Delbridge reported
he had found a firm that cuts
trees at a lower cost than what
council is presently paying.
He said the men — hydro work-
ers residing in Wingharn — cut
down trees on Saturdays and re-
cently had removed five trees
at a cost of $120,
Delbridge stated this appeared
more reasonable than the $150
council recently paid to have one
tree removed, although he noted
the Wingham men did not remove
any lumber or brush from the
site.
The matter was left with the
relevant committee to investi-
gate.
* * * *
Members appeared rather mif-
fed over the fact Works Super-
intendent Jim Paisley apparently
intends to take from three to
four weeks' holiday next month.
Councillors indicated they
probably wouldn't block his plans,
but suggested he should have at
least asked them first, in view
of the fact he's only entitled to
two week's holiday.

James Hayter, reeve of the
township of Stephen, speaking on
behalf of Huron County Warden
Kenneth Stewart, who was unable
to attend, said this new building
along with the addition to Huron-
View at Clinton would take care of
the needs of the elderly of the
county.
The first ideas to establish a
non-denominational rest home
under the Charitable Institutions
Act of the province came from the
Zurich and area Chamber of
Commerce.
Permission was received on
March 11, 1965 to go ahead with
the project. The original found-
ers of the home are Dr. Wallace,
Gerald Gingerich, Ervin Ginger-
ich, Charles Burgess and Keith
Westlake all of the Zurich area.
The first two mentioned are
also on the board of management
along with Ray McKinnon, Jack
Turkheim and Ivan Kalbfleisch.
Elgin McKinley is general
campaign chairman and is assist-
ed by treasurer Ray McKinnon
and publicity chairman Herb
Turkheim.
The architectural work on this
modern building was handled by
Riddle, Connor ) Falls and Ir-
vine of London. Bert Wesley
Construction of Sombra was gen-
eral contractor, but considerable
of the work was handled by local
craftsmen through sub-con-
tracts.
Home superintendent Reed in-
forms that three residents have
already moved into the home.
Many applications are now under
consideration and he expects to
have the home filled by the end
of the year. About 20 employees
have been hired to take care of
the kitchen, laundry, housekeep-
ing, maintenance, nursing and

Nothing but praise was spoken
by everyone connected with Sun-
day's official opening of the Blue
Water Rest Home at. Zurich.
"All in this area should be
proud of this project", were the
words of Premier John P. Ro-
berts as he officially opened the
$745,000 home on the westerly
edge of the village of Zurich.
Continuing, he said, "In one
year you translated a dream into
one of the finest rest homes in
the province and have full reason
to take pride in your effort."
The Ontario government
through the department of welfare
has contributed $325,000 toward
the cost of construction. The
final installment in the form of
a cheque for $162,500 was pre-
sented early in the ceremony by
Charles MacNaughton, Huron
MPP and highways minister.
The balance of the cost has
been financed by a mortgage of
$340,000 from Central Mortgage
and Housing and local contri-
butions of some $80,000.
While presenting the cheque,
Mr. MacNaughton comm ented
that a combination of purpose,
dedication and co-operation along
with frustrations and disappoint-
ments carried out by purposeful
people usually results in success
as this project did.
An amendment to the charitable
legislative grants act at the last
sitting of parliament increasing
the per bed grant from $2,500
to $5,000 made the final provin-
cial contribution possible.
Dr. Charles Wallace of Zurich
one of the original founders of
the Home idea was chairman of
the afternoon's program.
The chairman listed three
avenues of help that were instru-
mental in bringing the Rest Home
idea to its full reality. He cited
the provincial government
through the welfare department
and the local member, Mr. Mac-
Naughton. On the federal level the
help came from Huron MP, Ro-
bert McKinely and Central Hous-
ing and Mortgage Corporation.
Locally, he commended the
Zurich branch of the Bank of
Montreal and especially manager
Ray McKinnon for his services
in financing.
In his address Premier Ro-
berts said that there are 66 other
privately operated rest homes in
Ontario complementing 63 homes
under municipal supervision. He
added, "In the last 15 years the
number of beds for our elder
citizens has increased by 300%."
More than 3,000 area persons
crowded into and near the home
to attend the opening ceremonies.
Cars were parked along both
shoulders of Highway 84 for at
least half a mile, both east and
west of the home location.
A mass choir made up of mem-
bers of churches of all faiths in
the South Huron region sang a
special number under the direc-
tion of their leader, Lance J.
Reed, who is also superintend-
ent of the new home.
Members of the clergy par-
ticipating in the service were
Rev. A. C. Blackwell, St. Peter's
Lutheran, Zurich; Rev. Ephriam
Gingerich of Blake and Zurich
Mennonites; Rt. Rev. W. Hour-
deau, St. Peter's Catholic, St.
Joseph and Rev. Father N. A.
Page, St. Boniface Catholic, Zur-
ich.
A former rector of St. Boni-
face church, Rev. Father C. A.
Doyle paid tribute to the found-
ers and the campaign committee
of the new home.
Reeve John Corbett of Hay
township and reeve Leroy Thiel
of Zurich brought greetings from
their respective municipalities.
Mr. Thiel remarked "the new
home will enhance the beauty and
economy of the area".
