This is what Ontario is doing to help you get involved in it. An artist residing in your community working with senior citizens and children. A beautiful low cost print by an award- winning Ontario artist in your living room. Impossible dreams? Not at all. Through the Ontario Arts Council, all these dreams could come true, no matter where you live in the province. For the Ontario Arts Council's purpose is to make sure that all the people of our province share in Ontario's cultural riches. Over 500 Ontario arts attractions are ready, willing and able to visit your com- munity. They're described ina colourful Ontario -Arts Council catalogue entitled "ONTOUR". And, through the Touring Arts Fund, the Ontario Arts Council can help sponsors with the fees for touring groups in visiting your community. More than 100 musical, theatrical, dance and crafts groups are available to Ontario elementary and secondary schools The repertory is presented in the brochure "artslist". Outstanding creative artists want to visit the clasSrooms of the province, so that all Ontario youngsters may be exposed to the creating of painting, pottery, composing, photography, playwriting, sculpting, weav- ing, poetry, puppetry, ceramics and many other art forms.

The bill would ban snow- mobiles from all provincial high- ways and secondary roads except those exempted by regulations and would require drivers to cross serviced roads at a right angle. Age restrictions would ban drivers under 16 fromhigh- ways, under 14 from &Nang highways, and under 12 from public trails. The legislation also offers pro- tection to property owners from trespassers. Driving permits may be issued to those over 12 subject to examinations. The Ontario Government has disclosed, details of its second offer to provincial civil servants. The province has moved away from a two-year agreement, offering instead wage increases of between 5 per cent and 23 per cent for 1975. The Civil Service Association of Ontario has been asking for 611/2 percent.

Airlines, bus companies and . other carriers selling package tours which include services they do not own such as hotel rooms and meals - will also require licencing. The Ministry will appoint a registrar to head the licencing operation.

Expect three will seek Huron warden's chair BYSHIRLEYJ. KELLER There will be a three-way race in early January 1975 for the Wardenship of Huron County. Two newcomers and one veteran to the warden's race will take to the road during the next few weeks to seek support from among the county's reeves and deputy -reeves. Harold Lobb, reeve of Clinton, is making another bid for the warden's job. He told council that in the past 100 years there have only been two wardens from Clin- ton, David Cantelon in 1905 and George Elliott in 1934. "I think it is about time we had another one," said Lobb. The Clinton reeve has been at county council for five years and announced last year he'd be a candidate for warden in 1975. He was defeated in a previous at- tempt to become warden. Anson McKinley, reeve of Stan- ley, has been in municipal poli- tics for 12 years, seven at the county level. "If you see fit to elect Me," Reeve McKinley promised council, "I am pre- pared to take on the additional responsibilities." Reeve McKinley, this year chairman of the Board of Management at Huronview, also said that in the future county government would see additional reSponsibility heaped upon it, both from the local level and from the provincial govermnent. The third candidate is McKillop's Reeve Allan Camp- bell. He has spent 14 years in municipal politics, six years on county council. He has served on three different committees and was a committee chairman for three and a half years. In a simple appeal to his asso- ciates Reeve Campbell told council he would endeavor to follow in the tradition of previous Huron County wardens who served well and faithfully. The election of the warden will take place at the first session of county council in the new year, January 14, in the afternoon. Loose dentures need no longer embarrass you.
