On the cover of our working
papers at the pork producers
convention was a picture of two
porkers. The one was dated 1973
with a price tag of $73,
accompanied by a prosperous
looking farmer. The second was
dated 1974 with the same $73
price tag. The companion
however was dressed in rags.
This very well demonstrated the
difference in input prices the
farmer has to shell out. How the
pork producers income is doubly
jeopardized, because not only the

hopeful that it will turn for the Stratford.

has been received as to when
these will be released, he said.
Donald Crowley, R.R.2,
Gadshill, Chairman of
Transportation Committee,
reported tenders were being
called' for two 66-passenger
buses, He said one new bus
would replace an old bus at St.
Mary's School, Hesson, and the
other, new bits would replace an
old bus at Ecole Ste Marie at
R.R.2, Zurich. Altogether the
Board owns seven buses.
Four trustees were named to
arrange for the official opening
ceremonies at St. Aloysius School
in Stratford and• Holy Name of
Mary School in St. Marys.
Alterations and additions at St.
Aloysius for about $202,000 and
alterations and additions at Holy
Name of Mary for about $315,000
were completed last year.
The committee is to be
composed of: Howard Shantz,
Stratford; chairman; Gordon Ball,
St, Marys; Vincent Young,
Goderich; and David Teahen,

county library
The old argument of centraliza-
tion versus decentralization of
Huron County's departments was
revived at last Thursday's session
of county council • when it was
learned the county public library
• board was considering building a
new library headquarters
building.
- It was reported the present
rented facilities on Lighthouse
Street in Goderich are only just
adequate and the owners of the
building have other tenants in
mind ; The lease expires in 1976.
"It would appear that the
logical move would be to larger
quarters and to a building owned
by the county," said library.
chairman John F. Flannery,
Seaforth, "It has always been the
policy of the county to provide
accommodation for all the various
departments and then recover its
monies by means of rent."
In a four-point recommenda-
tion, it was suggested the
building program be considered;
that the future need of the various
county departments be studied
before a site is chosen, keeping in
mind the crowded condition at the
court house building in Goderich;
that the location of the building
be in the immediate Goderich
area to function in conjunction
with the court house where•
expensive office • equipment is
already located for use by all
county departments; and that
$30,000 be set aside as an initial
amount in the reserve account for
the project.
During the short but hot
discussion, it was pointed out
once more that plenty of space is
ready and waiting at Vanastra,
nearer to the centre of the county
'than Goderich.
The report was accepted as
presented although, it is assured
that the location of the proposed
new building will be a question
for further discussion as con-
struction time nears.
Maintenance Officer, was
authorized to attend a workshop
being held at the Separate School
Trustees' Convention in Toronto
either April 4 or 5 on "Improve-
ment of Our Assessment".
The Board supported the
resolution from Stormont,
Dundas and Glengarry County

Board--"that the Board make
'contact with other Ontario
Separate School Boards,
Teachers' and Trustees'
Associations to solicit their
cooperation in approaching the
Ministry of Education re:
establishing of courses in
Religious Educatidn in the
Ontario Teachers' Colleges." The
Board said this resolution implies
expansion beyond the present few
centres of religious education
courses for student teachers
destined to he teaching in
Catholic Schools.

following resignations: Mrs.
Marie Melady of St. Colutnban
who is retiring, at the end of the.

holtz of Sts Boniface School,
