The Vanastra Day Care Centre board. discussed ways of attracting more children to the centre m order to avoid a $6,000 deficit again this year. Huron County council learned Friday that it could spend $25,000 and save the county housing industry millions of dollars in in- terest. 10 years ago January 31,1974 Huron-PeM separate teachers and representatives of the separate board met at a marathon 13 hour session last Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning in at- tempts to reach a salary settlement before the January 31 deadline.

Mr. McInnis was speaking at the annual meeting of the organization held in the 'Legion Hall here. "Our program is sound, good and right,"_ stated Mr. McInnis, "let us gp forward.

Men can now do anything - ab- solutely anything - a bird can do!" "Is that so!" answered his friend, thoroughly bored.

Its the only safe way." 100 years: ago January 28, 1884 A Bone To Pick — A "timid" gentleman on Princess Street has several times been obstructed by a dog picking at a bone. The gentleman, ratherthan risk doggy's temper, wades the deep snow on the op posite side: • Clinton town fathers are made up of one flax mill owner who is also a conveyancer, two fanning mill manufacturers, one plan l- ing mill owner; one carpenter and builder, one dry goods merchant, one grocer; one butcher, one lawyer, one painter, evidently •,-- -„atairly.representativehody_ofmen '..

If it were located out of town, coun try people could park without getting a ticket. ,The merchants would feel the dif- ference since many men attend meetings there while their wives do their shopping in town. Many of the employees in the office must do their shopping in town too, so more business would be lost. There aren't too many businessesthat employ the number that work in that office, which is all the more reason the town 'should show some consideration for visitors to the office. When the lease on the office etpires, hope the Agricultural Representative takes a really serious look at NON renewal. Its .many 'uses have outgrown the size of the 2. building anyway. I Would like to kilo* where the Ag employees park their cars. Is any consideration given to those employees? On close examination of my violation envelope which only gives me 24 hours to pay I see that it is printed in U.S.A. Why couldn't it be printed at Clinton Conuriercial Printers. I telephoned that office and they told me they could do the printing on those little envelopes, if they had one to look at. All they have to do to get one is park anyWhere where there Used to be a meter. for over two hours and they will get one. If you were sitting all afternoon drinking beer, you would deserve a ticket but these ladies were at a meeting, planning how to improve the appearance of the town for bicentennial year. This is a very poor time to ruffle the feathers of the Horticultural Society. It's just like 'tilling the goose that laid the golden • egg. If the town is looking for ..eirtfa jobs to - keep Mr. Ticket Man busy, he could put down his chalk and pen and we would give him a shovel so he could lend the ladies a helping foot. By dhing that, he would be ap- preCiated and We would acknowledge him . • I would appreciate hearing from some town people how they feel about the parking. Personally, I'd vote for the return of the meters. I'm as close to Seaforth as I am to Clinton, so it really doesn't make any dif- ference to me.
