' • aunty Council approves 1975 spending budgets The February session of Huron County Council held in the court house in Goderich last Friday saw the presentation of.- many budgets, all of which were ap- proved. The County Public Library County approves $15,000 for airport maintenance • A reminder that the County of Huron has an obligation until 1985 to see that Sky Harbor Airport continues to operate as an air- port, clinched a request from the Town of Goderich for support to help maintain the premises. The Town of Goderich purchas- ed the airport last year and in ad- dition to capital costs, has budgeted $30,000 for maintenance of the property. County Coun- cillor Bill Clifford said that s iPOPOOSIPro. snow removal, runway repair ang the salary for a part-time manager at $150 per month. The town asked the county for 50 per 'cent of the maintenance budget up to a maximum of $15,000 this year which was ap-: proved. Reeve Derry Boyle of Exeter wondered if an "epidemic" of similar requests might not flood county council from airports in Grand Bend and Huron Park. However, Deputy -clerk Bill Hanly reminded council that due to an old agreement, the county must maintain at least one run- way at Sky Harbor until 1985. If the facility is allowed to deterior- ate the cost to the county could be considerable, Hanly suggested. He also said the county has 'con- tributed nothing to Sky Harbor to date. The airport is considered to be an asset to the county as a whole. Goderich Reeve Stan Profit said ije kelit.YecPSky RarborwIllone day be 'part Of circa for STOL (short takeoff and land- ing) craft to transport passen- gers to Toronto. Construction of a new terminal and hangars at Sky Harbor is en- visioned by Goderich's airport committee, and it is hoped that federal government funds, as .much as $250,000, will be avail- able for this purpose. The faci- lities will then be operated on a user -pay basis. Some revenue is already being realized from the facility, Mr. Clifford said. • *Difficult access may require slight additional charge.

They hiked out to Highway 87 and went west to the first side road. By hiking down this road, which is closed, they came to a river where they cut across and into the bush which is behind the school. By cutting through the bush they came to the school. Mr. Fisher, their elective and regular French teacher, told me the hike -Was about two miles long. Be- cause it was raining a bit, the snow stuck to the laces ad had to be knocked off every so often. This was the.second time out and the students knew better how to walk with snowshoes and it went a bit easier on them, even though they didn't have light fluffy snow, which is easier to walk on. Even though this hiking was tiring Mr. Fisher said he believed everyone enjoyed it. --Marlin Good 0-0-0 SKATE-A-THON On Friday, February21 room 13 and 15 held a Skate-a-thon to raise money for their class trips to Ottawa.

It was a fairly hard test which we wrote on Feb. 26. But before we could write it, We had to go and learn about hunter safety and the 10 com- mandments of hunter' safety. For you who shoot, can you remember yours? Mr. Harold Wild was our in- structor and to help him we had Mrs McLean and Martin Cretier. our Scout leader, and once we had a 'guest, Mr. Jenkins, from A.B.C. sporting goods. . Now that we're done with the test, we're learning safety on the range, a few tips on aiming and how .0 clean a barrel If vou have a son in the gun club, we advise you to send with him some ear muffs, cotton, ear plugs, etc. for it gets fairly loud down there.
