The Citizen, 1991-07-10, Page 3Cooling off Bradley, a Kerri-Blue from Georgia, doesn't seem as pleased with this shower as he should, considering the hot, muggy temperatures last week. Pam was busy getting Bradley ready for his turn at the Dog Show in Blyth. County rejects CAS budget Continued from page 1. Mr. Knight that it was important the CAS board and County taxpay­ ers should know why the costs are double those elsewhere. Mr. Knight said he was unable to answer the question. His figures showed that the cost per child pop­ ulation in Huron was comparable to the cost elsewhere and he couldn't explain why Mr. Mickle's figures should be so different to the agen­ cy's. Reeve Mickle wondered if there was any kind of criteria that estab­ lished when a request for assistance became a "case". Mr. Knight said that the number of "cases" had been pared down in recent years with requests for counselling being referred to the Huron-Perth Centres for Children and Youth and only those cases of highest priority of children being abused where the child needs protection, being accepted as cases. Total budget for the agency is $2,299,881 with the province pick­ ing up the major portion but the county being asked for $459,976. Reeves Mickle and Wilder both said they weren't against providing the services needed for abused chil­ dren but they can't understand why the cost to the county is so high and felt the Child Welfare Review was warranted. Reeve Mickle was appointed the county's representa­ tive on the review panel if the request for a review is accepted. THE CITIZEN. WEDNESDAY. JULY 10,1991. PAGE 3.

The fact is a cash donation of $20,000 was given by Franklin Bainton to start off the current drive for the capital fund called "Catch The Spirit Capital Campaign". This donation was given by Franklin as a memorial to his father Allan Bert Bainton, his uncle Frank Bainton and his aunt Jen Bain­ ton, founders of the leather and wool Industry in Blyth in 1894 - hence the memorial "Bainton Gallery". Swimming Class Registration will be taken Wednesday, July 10 and Thursday, July 11 at the Blyth Clerk's Office during regular business hours. Children must be 3 feet 2" to chin height.
