Huron museum Continued from page 1 A museum is in limbo, Mr. Scot- cbmer has his own ideas of. how he would like to see the future of the museum unfold. He notes they closely parallel the ideas of Neill. He would like to see the ar- tifacts and specimens displayed in a more natural setting,. much like the many pioneer villages scattered across the country but in- doors. W-o);king artifacts depicttfr such things as how wool is dyed and how mats are made on looms represent some of the curator's goals. Such craft projects as can- dle making, spinning, weav- ing and sickle and cradle making hale been done in the recent past at the museum. Scotchmer says the crafts are made where there is space, often on the floor in the display areas. Scotchmer noted a volunteer assists the museum by conducting craft classes. The curator would also like to see two or three lecture rooms for the museum. These room would provide an oppor- tunity to instruct tour groups. Proper storage area is also required. At the current facility every specimen and artifact is on display. Another mark against the present museum building is there is no environmental control. Besides having no heat in the building during the colder months thereis no moisture protection for the artifacts. Neill's original collection has grown and includes such items at the 1925-26 Essex car he used to travel across the country, war memorabilia, examples of local industry such as the salt mines and flour mills; carriages, agricultural implements, den- tistry equipment, church ar- tifacts, clothing, pictures, animals and many more. The Huron County Pioneer Museum is, in fact, Huron County's past, but what of its future? Personalized plates seen on a brand-new car driven by an elderly couple: LAST 1.

T -A photo Get home for battered wives The Huron County Family Crisis Committee was granted Goderich council's blessing to establish a county home for battered wives in Goderich despite protests from a group of neighbouring residents. Funded and staffed by the Mennonite Central Relief Committee, the home will be located at 101 West Street and accommodate a maximum of three residents at a time. The Huron County Family Crisis Committee approached coun- cil at its November 1 meeting, seeking permission to locate the home in town. The matter was subsequently referred to and endorsed by the planning board. Peter Pocock of 109 West Street, presented a letter to council signed by T. Peter • Gagel; W. Legg, W. R. Alcock, and Mrs. H. Murphy, expressing concern that the home for battered wives' would result in the devalua- tion of neighbourhood proper- ty values. "We are concerned and would like to have that fact noted," he said. "We are afraid that, in the long term, • • EXETER LIONS ARMCHAIR BINGO Numbers Drawn B I' N 0 0 1 17 33 49 62 2 20 34 50 64 3 21 36 51_ 67 5 22 38 52 68 7 25 41 54 69 9 28 45 56 72 10 29 74 11 75 14 Phone 235-1597 for additional numbers.

The presence of such an establishment could lower values in the im- mediate area and we would rather not see it (the home) there if feasible." Council unanimously en- dorsed a motion allowing the committee to establish the home for battered wives and their children after planning board suggested there is nothing prohibiting such a use in the official plan or zoning bylaw. Deputy -reeve Bob Allein said planning board took an involved look' at the matter before making a recommendation. "There's no reason why they can't locate there," he said. "Group homes must be next door to someone and there's no reason it shouldn't be allowed." Human values must take priority over property values councillor Elsa Haydon said adding that the neighbours and members of the crisis committee should meet amicably to discuss concerns over the use of the home. She endorsed the planning board recommendation. ' Councillor Jim Searls also endorsed the recommenda- tion claiming that since oc- cupation would be limited to three victims at one time, it wasn't likel at property values woulWcline. "I think it'S a wonderful idea," he said. "Where do we put these people." Spokesman for the Huron County Crisis Committee, Ir- vine Stienman, said the group was not planning any changes to the exterior of the , residence adding that the! home would be run as "in- conspicuously as possible." The Mennonite Central Committee, a relief and ser- vice agency, will supply per- sonnel and funding for the home. Stienman said all licen- cing must be done through the Ministry of Community and Social Services. When the committee first approached council' for ap- proval, it indicated that research supported the need i for a home for battered wives and their children.
