BE A BLOOD DONOR County council Deputy reeves part of past ? Deputy-reeves may be eliminated from /county council if not for efficiency of the elected body then because there is no room left in the council chambers for more politicians. Huron County council was told Friday by its executive committee that a recommend- ation on representation oncounty council would be brought to the March meeting for discussion. The executive committee re- ported to council that several municipalities inthe county were close to the statue of sending a deputy reeve to county council. The committee pointed out that the size of council would probably increase within the two year term councillors are now serving. The committee pointed out that if nothing else council faced a problem finding space in the council chambers for the new represen- tatives to sit down. The committee explained three methods council could use to determine represent- ation at the county level. At present any municipality with 1,000 or more electors sends a reeve and deputy-reeve to council. That figure could be changed so that only municipalities with 2,500 or more electors send a deputy-reeve or each municipality send one representative to council. If council made the cut-off for deputy- reeves 2,500 electors, all townships but Stephen would have one representative, Of the five county towns only Goderich and Exeter would send a deputy-reeve to county council. Village repre- sentation would remain the same and the size of council would be reduced from 45 members to 29 members. Goderich township reeve Grant Stirling told council there was merit inthe plan to reduce the size of council. He pointed out that at a time when the population of Huron County is dropping political representation at county council was increasing. Stirling said it was time council took "a good look at it". Morris township reeve Bill Elston argued that if the size of county council was reduced it may be ineffective if the absentee rate was similar to Friday's. Elston pointed out that if as many members were away from a 26 member council as were away from the 45 member group there "wouldn't be many members here". Elston went on to suggest that "pretty soon there won't be any need for county council at all". 16 THE BRUSSELS POST FEBRUARY 28, 1979 , BREAD WITH AN ACCENT To the French, no meal is complete without dread. It is a staple they have become accustomed to and for which they are world famous. The elongated, stick-like shape that is the bread's most familiar char- acteristic is a convenience to the French. The long length, usually bet- ween 18 and 36 inches, makes it easy to cut or break the loaf in pieces for the table. The French enjoy a loaf with much crust but it must not be thick! The long, thin shape lends to this crustiness. Cutting di- agonally across or along its length helps prevent excessive crumbs and allows fora maximum area for the spread. In French urban cafes the bafurette and the flute are the most popu- lar types of French stick and are usually accompanied by red wine, In the country where rye is still important, the "pain de siegle vala- sim" from the alpine regions is said to be the most ancient of French breads. Brioche (breeyosh) is perhaps the most versatile kind of French bread. These loaves are usually baked in loaf or fluted tins in the tradi- , tional or ball shape with a round "head". They may also be formed in I a ring shape. Large brioches are often hollowed out and used as a ' container for sweet and savoury foods. Since no butter, oil or sugar is used in the baking of French bread, Joan Fielden, nutrition consultant for the Bakery Council of Canada suggests eating the loaf while still fresh. Include it in a BEEF ROUND- UP SANDWICH for lunch or go DUG-OUT STYLE when entertaining friends. Day-old French bread can be toasted or made into FREEZER' FRENCH TOAST.
