He never saw a power -driven mower; My ,father cut the grain with scythe and cradle As men had done for centuries before. ,Hesplit the rails to build' his wooden fences, He walked uncounted miles behind the plow, He drew his wheat to mill with team and wagon, „ - He pitched the hay Py hand from load to thaw. My !pother baked her bread and . churned her butter, She had no luxuries to buy or sell, She made her yeast from hops, and soap from ashes, She carried pails of water from a well. She worked unceasingly from dawn to sunset With patient hands that never, seemed to tire; She- never turned . a switch or pushed a buttoit, To make a cup of tea she built a fire. 4 X Plan 300 housing units County -wide OHC plan presented to Huron council BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER .. The Ontario Housing Cor- poration is' proposing a county- wide Housing Authority- in ,Huron County. At last Friday. s session of county council, Teaching homemaker possible There is a real possibility that a teaching homemaker will be engaged in 'Huron County under: the direction of the Social Services Committee. Committee Chairman Ervin Sillery said the three main duties of a teaching homemaker would be to supervise the iindividual homemakers hired b'Sr the Social Services Committee on a contract basis; to be available for homemaking on an emergency basis (for example nights and weekends); and' to carry a homemaking caseload similar to the regular field workers from Social Services, specificialy , to work with housewives and mothers in need of advice concerning \ household budgets and 'nutritipn and child care. "In some General 'Welfare Assistance cases more is required than just a hand-out of mony," Mr. Sillery's report stated. "A teaching homemaker should be able to improve the quality of life for persons receiving long term assistance by teaching budgeting, shopping skills, meal planning etc. This should ensure that the money.is being spent more wisely and for the benefit of all members of the family." County, councillors learned that a middle-aged person with plenty ' of experience in the homemaking field plus cm - mon sense and the ability to work with people in all walks of life would be the type of person hired as a' teaching homemaker. The initial salary would depend on past experience and education and would have,to be in line with the present salary range for field workers. Should a teaching homemaker be hired, the salary and all ex- pe,nses in connection with the work would be subsidized b And yet I wonder if this world we live. in Is better than the one that went. before, When men had never heard of atom bombing . And constant threat of suicidal " war. a Our parents lived their days as God intended, In sunlit valleys, close to birds and flowers, In spite of all our vaunted march of science Their quiet lives were happier than ours. - Michael For y the Provinee*Qf Optario by 80 percent. John Tinney, chairman of the board of management at Huronview,. ,announced that June 15 to 21 is Senior Citizens' Week. Once again; all senior citizens in Huron are invited to Huronview to take part in the special' events being planned for the week for residents there. • REMEMbER TILE Good TimEs, WiTII PhOTO POSTERS '40 $3.99 'Limited time- offer. .:;:;:;:;:::;::::::::::55::::::::!:5!:!:!:fx.x.x.*****:•:;:;z:;:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::55,..:!:!:•::. .:. 7.: RETURN THIS COUPON WITH YOUR ORDER li •: AND WE'LL MAKE YOU A 2'x3' BLACK AND WHITE PHOTO POSTER OF YOUR FAVOURITE 0.1 4,1 SNAPSHOT FOR JUST S 3.99 : .....: from 'slide or print please add S1.25) 4. .:. l'..1 ::. CAMPBELL'S 168 THE SOUARE,:GODERICH SVIzi532, ' A memberwere brought up to date on the suggestion by J.V. Cook, Branch Manager for Southwestern Ontario. Presently in Huron there are two housing authorities - the Goderich Housing Authority ‘Vith 79 housing units and the (ljnton Housing Authority with 49 housing units. Under con- ,truction at the present time as well, however, are housing units in Bayfield, Blyth, Seaforth; Wingham and Zurich. In all, there will be about 300 housing units in Huron when those under development are completed. Three levels of government pay the costs of these units - 50 percent is, financed tough federal funds; 421/2 percent is financed from provincial money; and usually, the municipality . in which the housing units are located pays the remaining seven and one - ha If percent. Mr. Cook .said that in Huron if mousing Authority was set up, it would likely be a seven - member board. It would be the duty of that board to direct the management, of the public housing; to approve the budget and tenant placement; and to deal with problems that arise. Always, the housing authority would operate with the guidelines of Ontario Housing Corporation. Mr. Cook said the, proposal for a county housing authority has come, before other in- terested persons ix the county including the Goderich Housing Authority. 'To date, no op- position has been •registered to the proposal. ' He suggested that if a county authority was formed, there would be ' one manager, one maintenance man and a clerk - typists needed as • staff. John Lyndon, Goderich, presently serves as part-time managerof I the Goderich an ' Clinton housing authority as well as having other duties throughout Huron with OHC. e- MAYTAG • AUTOMATIC WASHERS & DRYERS • PORTABLE ,WASHERS & DRYERS • WRINGER WASHERS • PORTABLE & BUILT4N DISHWASHER' . • IN SINK FOOD ,WASTE DISPOSERS Fromthe Dependability People at:- HUTCHINSON APPLIANCES TRADE INS ACCEPTED 308 HUFON RD, • JEW 524-7831 „mommi.„ NOTICE!
