The auditorium was the location, as is customary,
for Monday's Old Tyme Music session. The violins this
week were played by Mr. Norman Speir and Mr. Frank
Forrester with Mrs. Mary Broadfoot playing piano. A
large turnout witnessed one of the best programs in
awhile and the rousing music seemed to affect averyone
in a very enlightening way. The Goderich volunteer
ladies were on hand as well to lend a helping hand with
all facets of the program. The excellent music was some-
thing that seemed to brighten up the spirits of all in
attendance. Just as a small nudge, it may be added that
the ladies from Goderich will be here every first and
third Monday and extra voluntary assistance on these
and other afternoon activities would be very much appre-
ciated indeed. By the way, we still are without a sponsor
for the over 90 club.
The combined choirs of Varna and Goshen United
Churches presented an Easter cantata in the auditorium
for Monday evening for well over one hundred residents
who thoroughly enjoyed the fine Easter music. Rev. Mor-
rison introduced the choir and gave the narration for the
cantata with Mrs. Bruce Keyes as organist and choir
director. Special parts in the musical numbers were
taken by Ann Hayter, Evelyn McKinley, Norene Hayter,
Helen Taylor, Sharol Peck and Mona Stephenson. A
former member of the Varna congregation Miss Bertha
Diehl expressed the appreciation of the group in attend-
ance.
The residents were entertained on Thursday (Family
Night) with a variety program. Those taking part were
Adam Wilson, violin; Watson Webster, mouth organ; and
Marjorie Huether, piano; Mrs. Gail Traviss gave a vocal
solo and was' then joined by Mrs. Melvina. Erickson and
Albert Craig for a couple o f duets. They then led a sing-
a-long of old time favourites. Everyone enjoyed this
program .very much and. Mrs. Eliza Dowson thanked the
entertainers on their behalf.
Huron board
(continued from. page 6)
had been to discontinue guidance
in the elernentary seheols of the
county, the pregrarn was saved
through *Making additional CO
baCkS in the plant operation and
maintenance budgets,
In the secondary Panel, cuts
were made in the school offices,
regular, day school supplieS,
audio-visual supplies, guidance,
library supplies, cafeteria supp-
lies, plant maintenance, trans-
portatien and other Operating ex- •
penses.
In transportation, for instance
budgets for field trips and pro-
gram athletics were cut severely
to one-third of last year's bud-
gets.
The driver education program
was retained for secondary
school students although students
taking ,the course in, 1972-'73 will
pay $20 towards the cost of the
course instead of $15 as prey-,
iously.
In 1971, about 480 secondary
school students are enrolled in
the driver education courses at
the five county high schools, and
the majority of board members
felt the program was toovaluable
in terms of road safety in the
county, to delete from the budget.
Original indications had also
been that night school courses
would be cut from the budget but
it was later learned that deleting
this item would not const.itute
a saving because of the grant
structure governing night.school..
In all, $129,74 was sliced
from the secondary school bud
get and $019,504 was stricken
from the elementary school bud-
get.
Even with the cut backs in
spending, the levy to the munic-
ipalities will likely remain the
same. The board gave its ap-
proval Monday evening for the
institution of a $200,00Q reserve
for working fund.
The fund is Considered im-
portant to Huron County's educa-
tional system, because indica-
tions are that even more drastic
reductions in the ceiling for the
1973 budgets will be imposed.
There is no doubt that mem-
bers of the Huron County Board
of Education are concerned. In
fact, a resolution was passed
Monday evening that a meeting
between a delegation from Huron
County's board and the Ontario
Minister of Education be set up.
The purpose of the meeting
will be to outline to the Minister
that while Huron County Board
of Education has complied with
the government's halt on spiral-
ling educational costs for 1972,
it cannot live within similar re-
strictions for another year with-
out jeopardizing the total educa-
tional system in Huron.
Hon. C.S. MacNaughton and
Murray Gaunt, MPP for Huron-
Bruce will be invited to attend
the meeting and will be urged to
be present if at all possible.

the story of Mr. Hislop's death,
Rev. Knight added this comment
"Mr. Hislop, I believe, worked
for a short while at the ,power
plant in Brussels. He has spoken
of some of the experiences that
they had with the old arc lights
along main street. He has men-
tioned "several people that I have
known around Grey Township in-
cluding my teacher, Miss Alice
Forrest of Cranbrook".
