After ' a five-year absence, wild
geese are oreturning to' their old
haunts in Huron County. It is thought
that during the war years they were
frightened away by the zooming of
planes which rose from the fields of
the four airports, sometimes rivalling
in their formations the flight of the
geese. Several good bags of them
have been reported recently.

"FEEL AT HOME"
(Continued from Page 1)
a large number of commimications
which had accumulated since the June
Session. Most of these were referred
to their respective committees, while
the remainder were filed.
County Gaol
The report of the Inspector of
Prisons respecting Huron County
Gaol, stated the building was in good
condition, but that the ventilation
was not good. Food costs were three
per cent lower than the provincial
average.
It commented that although the
building was 103 years old, it was
spotlessly clean. Recommendations
included a new grill at the reception
room; a more modern stove replacing
the present nauseating oil stove; steel
sash, instead of wood sash, if win-
dows were replaced.
Grand Jury Report
The Grand Jury report, at the
recent Supreme Court Assizes, re-
commended a number ofo changes in
the Cognty Building. It was referred
to the Property Committee for con.
sideration.
Clinton Road Complaint
James Livermore, who resides on
King St.. Clinton, wrote a letter to
County Council asking which body—
Town Council' or County Council—
was responsible for the condition of
that street. He stated that there
is a heavy traffic to and from the
CNR station, and that the dust is
a great nuisance, settling on the
exterior of his stucco house and caus-
ing damage to the interior. The let-
ter was referred to the Good Roads
Committee of County Council.
Financial Statement
County Treasurer A. H. Erskine,
presented financial statements, cov-
eing the period January 1—October
31, 1945, together with an estimate
for the balance of the year. The re-
port was referred to the Finance
Committee.
The financial statement showed
that during the period. Jan. 1—Act.
31, 1945, total receipts in the general
account were $213,117.04, with a bank
balance at the latter date of 3885.36.
Estimated .expenditures for the bal-
ance of the year included $25,000 for
Clinton Public Hospital and 32,500
for the purchase of reforestation
land. Bank loans of $155,000 are
listed as an estimated disbursement.
Expenditures on the County Hone
were reported at $25,675.81.
In his comment, at the bottom of
the statement, County Treasurer
Erslcine said:
"From the .foregoing statements
it would appear that the General
Account will show a surplus of ap-
proximately $4,300 after the purchase
of .325,000 in Victory Bonds. The
Highways Account will break even
after the purchase of 320,000 in Vic
tory Bonds. The County Home Com-
mittee will live within their esti-
mates. Provision has been made for
the purchase of lands for reforesta-
tion purposes to the extent of 32,500
which was not included in the esti-
mates. Some items have overrun
the estimates, and some are under:
but in the main most Committees
have kept their estimate in balance.'
`Considerable .progress was made
this year in securing funds belong-
ing to inmates' at the County Home.
Five .new estates have been set up
in the Trust Fund involving approx-
imately 310,000.
"'Interest on bonds greatly exceeds
the amount paid out in interact on
Demand Loans. Administration of
Justice costs have increased, due
largely to Jury Courts for increased
criminal cases. ($18,815.09 until Oct
31; 34,000 estimated for rest of
year.)
"School Nursing Service was in-
augurated in August and while un-
derstaffed et present, excellent re-
sults have already been noted.,
"We wish to pay tribute to the,
untiring effort of the Warden during
the year and to express our apprecia-
tion to, members of Council' and other'
County Officers for their coopera
