Sutton, as a new minister for St. John's chose this Advent Sunday to tell of some of his desires for the Church community of Grand Bend. He would like us to un- derstand what it is to be a Christian.

Sutton aspires to put "youth" into our congrega- tion - not the chronological age but the vigor of youth. We must strive to feel vital and then we will have vitali- ty. He would like us to be con- cerned about the things beyond Grand Bend - Canada as a country, and then other lands. areas which cry out for help. He tells us he will be con- scious of the priorities peo- ple have. that we must all live the preciousness of be- ing a Christian so that it is recognizable to him and others. Rev.

Committee decides to defer its support of resolution The Lambton County Finance, Property and Legislative Committee deferred supporting a t,solution calling for federal compensation and property reassessment for homes In- sulated with urea for- maldehyde until more infor- mation on its reportedly un- healthy effects on residents is provided. The resolution originated from the Metro Toronto borough of Scarborough and asked that the federal government compensate homeowners who insluated with the controversial in- sulator with its encourage- ment several years ago. At its monthly meeting Wednesday night, the com- mittee decided against gran- ting an endorsation until it could get more data on the insulator's effects. "We could be acting prematurely until we get more information," said Leigh Crozier, adding that the safety of urea for- maldehyde depends on the method of installation. The foam is suspected of decom- posing and releasing noxious gases. Budget proposals for the new year's budget were accepted as stated. Treasurer Wayne Kloske ex-, minister here) had passed away on November 20.

The Finance Com- mittee is scheduled to recommend the budget to the' County Council February 9. The committee accepted the procedure as it stood, and decided to send copies to relevant department heads for their information. Authority was granted to open insurance proposals for the County's insurance policies. Members discussed the details affecting the kind of insurance the County can purchase, depending if they wish to be insured at the cost of replacement, original, or depreciation. "It could be two weeks of work to assess unless we supply the rele- vant data on the value of in- surable property and equipment," said Ad- ministrator William McRorie. The committee gave its consent to open the proposals provided that elected officials be present to oversee. Committee members also looked at a sketch of a sign under consideration for In- stallation at the Ad- ministrative Buildings. Warden Bob Boyd noted the absence of the words "Ad- ministrative Building" and suggested another sign be found. The $1,800 electrified sign stands 11 feet high and reads "County of Lambton" on both sides. It was finally decided to get more es- timates from other sign firms. Earlier in November, the heating system feeding the Council Chambers had failed and was rectified within two weeks. According to Ad- ministrator Bill McRorie, the heat pump in question was the largest of the ap- proximately 30 in the whole building, and thus its output could not be compensated for by the others. The faulty pump was still under warranty from the supplier, and the cost of installation will be reimbursed to the county.
