bounty council approves books for illiterates
BY JEFF SEDDONr,
The Huron County
public library now has
books for -everyone in-
cluding about1,000
Bounty residentt that
can't read.
On Thursday Huron
county council approved
the purchase of 10 books
specially ' prepared to
help illiterates learn to
read. Council increased
the library budget.by $120
to petf lit the books to be
bought immediately.
County librarian Bill
Partridge told council the
number of illiterates in
Huron county had risen
sharply in recent years.
He told • council the
-illiterates had fearnec- to
cope in society despite
their handicap and lead
an interesting life. He
said the people will "rip
open bags in grocery
stores ' and put their
f i.ngevs_i.n--to. determine if
the bag contains sugar or
salt". •
Partridge said in an -•..
interview that the per-
centage of illiteratds in
Huron was high com-
paY'ed to ether
municipalities in the
-province. He sad- that
percentage could be due
he rural base in Huron
tpooi ting out that many
pe ple didn't need a
formal education to work
farms and ...:heft school
early.
The . librarian said
according to provincial
standards people -with
less than a . Grade- 3
•education are termed
illiterate. He said
government statistics
released in 1976 sho-wed
that 77.5 of the county's
41,175 residents had less
than Grade 5 education.
The county='population
now stands at 56,000 and
according to Partridge -
1,000 people could be
illiterate.
Government statistics
show that 17 percent of
the people in Ontario are
functionally illiterate.
People with less .than
Grade 9 education are
termed functionally
illiterate. Partridge said
that 29 percent of Huron's
residents are functionally
illiterate according to
those terms.
' He said a program was
in operation to teach
people to read arid,' that
about half a dozen pp e.ple
had enrolled. But he
added that the program
could become-': county
wide and include more
people..
He said people that_
can't read have learned
to get along and unless
one knew that a person
could not read one would
not be able totell. He said
orie could not tell by •
talking to illiterates that
they can't read.
But he added that the
people are very "eager to
learn" and realize that by
not being able to read
they are "missing a lot in
life".
