Lunch Provided Everyone Welcome Huronview may use nearby natural gas county who will no doubt require care in years to come, "Our concern is increased since we are operating at or near capacity and our waiting list of senior citizens continues to grow," said Reeve McKinley. Chester Archibald, ad- ministrator at Huronview, agreed the Home is near capaci- ty. He reported that 297 residents presently live at Huronview with five more in hospital at the pre- sent time bringing the population at Huronview to 302. Capacity is 310. Mr. Archibald said that four more people are scheduled for admittance to Huronview in the near future. "And this month the com- mittee is faced with the largest number of applications for ad- mittance ever," said Mr. Archibald. Mr. McKinley told council of a recent meeting with John Cargo, Supervisor of protective ser- vices, community services development branch, mentally retarded division of the ministry of community and social ser- vices. Council learned• a protec- tive service worker is to be located in Huron by April of 1975. The ministry feels that mental- ly retarded adults can best be cared for in foster homes in their own communities rather than be- ing institutionalized. "The problem comes in trying to find homes in the communities to take this type of patient and care for them," said Mr. McKinley. "The committee can foresee the day when this could be a ma- jor problem," Reeve McKinley stated. "If Huronview is the only place provided for these people, it could deprive senior citizens of the facilities which have been provided for them." "The next couple of years may bring some answers" Reeve McKinley went on. "But it will take a little bit df understanding on the part of society in general and ourselves as leaders to try to bring this about. South Huron District Hospital Women's Auxiliary Natural gas deposits in Stanley and Goderich townships may soon be a source of heat for Huronview, Huron's home for the aged just outside Clinton. It was learned at last week's county council meeting that Mof- fat Lake Explorations Inc. has applied to the Energy Board for a franchise to supply gas to Tuckersmith Township and the company has agreed to supply gas to Huronview at 95 cents per Mcf. This price is guaranteed to September 1. 1976, Anson McKinley, reeve of Stanley Township, told council he hopes the deal with Moffat Lake Explorations goes through. "We had hoped to have it com- pleted by this fall but probably it will be next year now," he said. The price of fuel oil for Huron- view is now 33.9 cents per gallon, an increase of 16,47 cents or a whopping 94 percent since Oc- tober 1973. Mr. McKinley also advised council that the Huronview com- mittee has become concerned with the number of young adult retardees admitted to the home in recent months. He said there are great many other young adult retardees throughout the QUEEN GETS WATCH - The top prize to 1974 Exeter Fair Queen Karen DeJong was a Bulova watch presented by Exeter jeweller Earl Campbell.
