The increase for jail employees Was recommended by the 1956 County Gounelt when jt !met here last Ngvemlber. E axlier requests on behalf of the jail employees had 'been rejected. • A new schedule of grants, ap- proved by County Council last week, allots e total of $20,900. The grant total is much (less than that for 1956, chiefly because (the list last year was swelled by a donation of $35,000 to Alexandra Marine and General Hospital fart Goderich, to help (finerree an addition.. The grant list is also reduced this year by cutting off. five $500 grants, to five secondary schools in Huron, and by omitting from the list a grant of $1,500 to Huron Tubercuansis Association, which was paid, in 1956. The gx'anit to the Canadian Na- tional `Institute for the Blind is increased from $1,500 last year to $2,000 this year, and the .grant for agricultural junior extension work is increased (from $1,800 to $2,000. Other grants are to be the same as in 1956. - - Dungannon Grant The fall fair at Dungannon will receive $125, (while the spring fair at Clinton has been allotted $100. (Earlier, Ed.

Air Cadet News Group Captain Cameron and the chief liaison officer, Squadron Leader Dixie, from Clinton RCAF Station, visited- the Maitland Air Cadets last week. The group cap- tain inspected the cadets. Following the inspection, he told of the opportunities and awards which are available through air cadet training. Be went on to say that it was very pleasing to see such..an excellent turnout for such weather. In talking to the cadets, he said, "The Maitland Squadron has had four cadets win flying schblarships and .six received sen- ior leaders' and drill instructors' courses at Camp Borden." He also •said that one ran -et received an exchange visit to Great Britain and that I? ar; Military College --leas received two very outstanding cadets, all within the six years since the squadron was first organ- ized. Group Captain Cameron and other officers dropped into many classes during the evening and he was pleased with the results of straining. At cadets this year we have .the opportunity to learn about radii.), which is taught by Wilf Reinhart. Mr. Craved teaches the boys 'meteorology and theory of flight. (ingines are being taught to the cadets by Mr. Woods and public awaking and Citizenship are being taught by Bill Anderson.

E :Holmes after a boarding-house operator admitted she had left her purse, containing about $160, lying around her bed- room for several days (before the money was stolen. In police court at Goderich last Thursday, ,the magistrate dismissed a charge against Erfnest Haun- felder of taking the money from his former landlady, Mrs. Dorothy McCallum, of Seaforth. While he felt very sorry for Mrs. McCallum, the magistrate was frankly puzzled as to why she had kept such a substantial sum of money around the house for so long. There were five boarders in the home. Noble McCallum, husband of the complainant, said that he would not have allowed her to keep so much cash in the house if he had known that she had it. Haunfelder, who was unemploy- ed and owed $30 board money, took a bus to Toronto on January 15. Later • that day, Helmest Schwarz, another boarder, came home and complained that his wal- let, containing a small sum of money, had been taken from his room. .Mrs. McCallum then went to her own purse and discovered that her money •was gone, too. ailed To Report . An immigration . officer, Jalat` .Mitcil.insnn of G{ii.itih; id 6-, ihe had asked Haunfelder to report to him in Stratford on January 15, but the youth had not done so. Mr. Mitchinson was trying to find him a jolb. 47 . Only a few 'hours •after the theft was reported, the youth was picked ' up in Toronto by an alert police- man from whom Haunfelder had asked directions. Provincial Con- stable Ed. Johnston, of Seaforth, who brought Haunfelder back to Huron County, said there was noth- ing in the youth's luggage or other belongings (which. would connect him with the theft. The youth had only $8.33 in his pocket. In dismissing the charge, Magis- trate Holmes observed that other persons, as well as Haunfelder, had opportunities to steal the money. The crown did not proceed with the second charge against Haunfelder of stealing money from Helmest Schwarz. Mrs. MoOallurn. who termed her- self "an honest, hard working wan," broke down and wept under cross-examination. She was assist- ed from the witness stand by Cpl. H. M. Sayeau. Haunfelder was defended by J. K. Hunter, of Goderich. In another ease, Mrs. Amber Carrick was fined $50 and costs or two weeks in jail for violating the Canada Temrperanee Act. Her husband •appeared to enter a plea of guilty oh her behalf. According to crown evidence, Mrs. Carrick sold liquor to three men in East .Wawanosh ToWTshi'p last November.
