New Stamp Issue Feb. 3
Two new postage stamps,
honoring the official flowers of
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick
will be issued by the Post Office
Department February 3rd. The
stamps are the fourth and fifth
of a series scheduled for issue
bet ween now and Canada's
Centennial Year of 1967.
The blue, pink and green
stamp honoring Nova Scotia
shows the arms and the floral
emblem of that province, the
trailing arbutus, more common-
ly known as the Mayflower.
This flower was officially adopt-
ed
dopt
cd by the province in .1901, al-
though as far back as 1825, it
was used as a decorative motif
on the front page of the "Nova
Scotian" and on the buttons of
the Nova Scotia Militia, The
Mayflower also appeared on a
series of postage stamps issued
by Nova Scotia during the period
1851 to 1853.
In 1936, the purple violet
was officially adopted by New
Brunswick as the floral emblem
of that province. Instrumental
in the choice of this flower as
the official provincial emblem
were the Women's Institute,
groups of school children and
the Lieutenant -Governor, Col-
onel Murray MacLaren. The
stamp is in red, purple and
green.
The two stamps are being
printed by the intaglio process
with complementary colour
work by offset using hand engra-
ved masters for the original
plates. This combination of
printing methods is relatively
new to Canadian postage stamps.
It was used for the Peace stamp
and the floral emblem stamps
of Ontario and Quebec.

Is Money Suprerne?
(Continued from Page One)
affected if construction were undertaken near the existing
county home at Clinton. It is our understanding that they
suggested an increased cost of about $40,000 if the build-
ing were erected at another site, Since this would bear a
50% grant, total increased cost to the county would be
about $20,000— a very small burden when amortized
over the normal debenture period.
At its November session the county council was in-
formed that a study is being undertaken to determine
the actual need as far as old people in the county is con-
cerned. Preliminary figures suggest that Huron may have
as many as twice the normal number of older people. Why
has the decision to build at Clinton been made before the
facts are know about where these older people live? How
many families would have to drive all the way from Am-
berley, Clifford or points in between to Clinton to visit
with their loved ones?
We fully anticipate that this editorial will be met by
the usual protests that we are interfering in county busi-
ness and, above all, that we are disguising a greedy attempt
by Wingham to secure the new home under the garments
of altruistic interest in old people. This is far from the
case. In fact, we are quite aware that many residents
and reeves in the south end of the county are equally
interested in seeing the county home addition built there
and we agree whole-heartedly with the validity of their in-
terests,
We are simply opposed to any further expansion of
the already large home facilities at Clinton when a home
in either the north or the south of the county would better
serve the interests of the people who will have to pay for it.
The public should be aware of the fact that any ad-
dition at Clinton cannot be in the form of an expansion of
the present Huronview accommodations. Department of-
ficials have indicated that the addition will have to be a
completely separate institution to preserve the personal
relationship between staff and residents.
So that every member of the voting public may know
exactly how matters stand, we list the results of the vote
in county council when the following resolution was pre-
sented:
"That we build a 75 -bed wing, with facilities for 150
beds on another site":
In favor — J. P. Alexander, Wingham; R. T. Bailey,
Exeter; G. Boyd, Ashfield; C. E. Boyle, Exeter; N. C. Cardno,
Seaforth; F. A. Clift, Bayfield; 8. Cook, Blyth; J. H. Cor-
bett, Hay; C. Dalton, Seaforth; C. Dunbar, Grey; L. Durn-
in, West Wawanosh; A. Etherington, Usborne; R. Gibson,
Howick; I. Haskins, Howick; R. Jewell, Goderich (2 votes);
J. Kerr, Wingham; C. Krauter, Brussels; A. Smith, Turn -
berry. (19 ).
(Opposed — D. Geiger, Hay; W. Hardy, Colborne; E.
Hayter, Stanley; J. Hayter, Stephen; N. Jones, Hensall; T.
Leiper, Hullett; E. Mcllwain, Goderich Twp.; 0, McKenzie,
Ashfield; M. Oesch, Zurich; S. Procter, Morris; E. Snell,
East Wawanosh; K. Stewart, McKillop; G. Stirling, Gode-
rich Twp.; R. Squire, Goderich (2 votes); E. Talbot, Stan-
ley; D. Thompson, Clinton; E. Thompson, Tuckersmith;
G. Webb, Stephen; G. Wonch, Clinton. (20).
Alternative sites for the county home addition would be
the Wingham area, quite possibly in either Morris or East
Wawanosh Townships—or the Exeter area. We suggest
you ponder this question and discuss it with your own
reeve the next time you see him.
