Huron approves grant
for Exeter hospital
South Huron Hospital in Exeter
has received the approval of
Huron County Council to proceed
with building plans and to expect
financial support from the county
of up to 25 per cent of provincial
approved costs, to a maximum of
$150,000.
The original hospital, which
was a house constructed in 1856,
will be removed to make way for
a new emergency and out-
patients' facility. The projected
cost for the project is $598,000 and
the hospital board has expressed.
confidence the building costs will
not exceed , that amount. The
hospital already has ad of be-
tween $425,000 and $4,000 for
the work.
The addition to South Huron
Hospital will proceed under On-
tario Regulation 61,1977 which
means the province will have no
financial share in the building.
The South Huron Hospital Board
has to make a specific commit-
ment as well, that no additional
operating costs will result from
the building program..
The Social Services committee
of the county -is expecting to be
well, over budget by the- end of
1977. Due to continued high un-
employment and increased rates
in most areas of the social ser-
vices department, the financial
report for the period ending July
31, 1977 shows expenditures of
$230,320.85 or about $10,000 over
budget.
"It is expected this trend will
continue for the balance of .1977,"
said Chairman J. R. flunking.
The administrator of Huron -
view was authorized to partici-
pate in an Outreach Program,
operated by the Huron Commit-
tee for the Home Bound to pro-
vide day care for the elderly.
The program will be financed
by the Province of Ontario for a
two-year period. The Huronview
van will be used as required, and
meals will be provided at a rea-
sonable cost. All costs will be re-
covered from the Outreach
group. About 300 in Huron County
could be potential users of this
service, according to Mrs. Betty
Cardno of Seaforth, a member of
the committee.
Huron County Pioneer Museum
will receive a gift from the Royal
Canadian Legion•, Branch 109,
Goderich. That gift will be the
Sherman Tank 78901 presently
located at the, Goderich airport.
The tank and a Lancaster bom-
ber made up a Legion display at
the Goderich airport, and at one
time were open to free inspection
by visitors, However, it became
increasingly difficult to protect
the display from vandals and this
year the bomber was sold and re-
moved from the area.
The Huron County property
committee will work with the
Goderich Legion members to in-
corporate 'their suggestions into
the new museum exhibit and a
plaque will be unveiled next year.
In other business, council
agreed to file no objections to a
proposal to designate the former
Huron County jail and the 'jail
residence as a heritage building
under the Ontario Heritage Act.
Such designation, the councillors
learned, was vital to ensuring the
jail's preservation for the future.

witnesses unto me", — a com-
mand given to the disciples after
Jesus' resurrection, which were
marching orders then and now.
A witness has a duty and a pri-
vilege. There are three ways to
witness:
What we say: Just as a witness
in the court of justice must have
first hand information, which has
a direct bearing on the outcome
of the case; so in the case of the
Church of Christ. We must give'a
first hand message of the living
Christ to an uncaring world. As
witnesses we must say "I. be-
lieve".
What We Do is a second way to
witness. The World will see
Christ in us. We must be careful
of the impressions we make on
others. Practise what we preach
and Who or What We are is a
third 'way to witness. This is the
most important aspect of all. The
illustration of a lady who was an
invalid, blind and paralyzed
following a car accident was
given. She stated that she would
willingly share other's pain be-
cause she had learned to cope
with pain. What a -witness! What
a message! Jesus tells us to wit-
ness anywhere, everywhere — in
Jerusalem and in Samaria.
Leave no spot untouched by love
and blessing. Witness on oul
Familiar hymns were sung
