Registry office may close Dan Murphy, vice- president of the Huron County Law Association is concerned that the provincial government may close the registry office in Goderich, using the same reasoning as was used in plans to close the registry office in Durham, Mr. Murphy said the proposed closings are just another example of the government's thinking that bigger means more efficient. The Goderich registry office is one of 28 that the Grey County Law Association has said may be closed because of volume of business.' Other offices on the list are in Walkerton, St. Thomas, Glencoe, and Woodstock. The provincial government hopes to save $35,000 by closing the Durham office in Grey County and moving the facilities and records there to the Owen Sound registry office. The'Grey County association has claimed that the Durham office generates an an- nual revenue of $160,000 in that area. The association claims that if all 20 offices are closed, it will cost clients an extra $5.8 million a year because lawyers would travel further to do land title transfer business.

A Syndicated Canadian Newspaper Feature We thought our readers might like to know what the cost of living on some necessary items would be like if the present price increases continue as they are, in the year 2001. The following figures were computerized by a Chicago firm called Manplan Con- sultants. Although they are U.S. prices we should be able to take an educated guess regarding our own. Automobiles from $17,000 UP. Houses $171,400 (AVERAGE) Rent on one -bedroom apartment in city suburbs, $1,278 (MON- TH). Manplan claim that their computer shows, that just to get by, a worker will have to earn a minimum of $45,000. They also did a preview of food prices, but we feel they are too gruesome to publish here. Ball & Mulch LTD. • HOME FURNISHINGS I FLOOR C CSI R•�. POVERINGSE iNG 482.. 9505 71 ALBERT ST.
