Tickets at 1.50, may be secured from any of the directors Wm. Rogerson, Pres, John Broadfoot, Sec.-Treas.' ed early next week from Goderich jail to the Ontario Training School at Guelph to begin serving his life sentence. How long he will be in custody for the rape -slaying last June of 12 -year-old Lynn harper near the Clinton RCAF base was uncer- tain. But with good behavior it may be as little as 10 years. Solicitor - General Balcer an- nounced in tate Commons that cabinet had commuted the boy's death sentence to life imprison- ment. Justice Minister Fulton said in an interview Friday night that Steven will be held in pro- vincial rather than 'federal cus- tody. This means he will start his sentence i.n a training school with other youngsters rather than in a federal penitentiary with adults. The custody decision was reach- ed late Friday at a meeting of Mr. Fulton and Ontario Reforms Min- ister Wardrope.

County Road Committee Report The following is the report o the County road committee (1959 to the county council Januar meeting. Document from the Townshd of 1-lowiek, requesting cautio lights at the -Intersection of King Highway 87 nvibh County Rod 28 and 30. Province of Ontari statutes require that these instal atiens',be approved by the depart meitt of highways. Accordingl we requested permission to erec caution lights at these locations A lengthy report was received r cently which included a tra-ffi and accident incidence studry. Th final recommendation was that "Caution lights are not warranted at these locations." Your Commit toe had no choice but to concur with this decision. The Department of Highways has .put into effect a plan which will involve far more pre -engine- ering work than we normally car- ry out. They require that we sub- mit a detailed plan and profile, for approval, of all road work to be carried out under supplement- ary by-law. At the same time they reduced our Construction allot- ment on our regular by-law, forc- ing us to carry out most of our new road and bridge construction under a "Supplementary" By-law, and thereby requiring the County to submit detailed plans on near- ly all work. In order to comply with this requirement most coun- ties in Ontario will be forced to employ additional engineering help or engage the services of a consulting engineer, We are pleas- ed to report that for the time be- ing at least our present staff will be able to carry out this new work, Mr. John More was hired last year to assist on the extra work involved on the development road and has done an excellent job in this respect. Now, as the work on this Development Road project nears completion he will be able to assist greatly in. carrying out this new requirement. This new requirement will, incidentally, more than triple the amount of survey and drafting done last year and in previous years. You will notice that by-law 4 shows a total regular by-law tot- al of $500,000.00. This is a reduc- tion of $100,000.00 from our 1959 by-law of $600,000.00. This was done on instruction of our dist- rict municipal engineer and the whole reduction is in .Construc- tion for reasons explained above. We hope to carry out approxi- mately the same volume of work as last year ($860,000.00), the bal- ance being made up on a Supple- mentary By-Law.You will find listed below a summary of expenditures for the year 1959. We would like to point out a few highlights. Total value of work on. Huron County Roads $1,224,084.67; Tot- al value of work on Development Road $269,501,75; Total value of work submitted for subsidy 9850,- 999.95. f y P n s Road 0 1- y e - c A by-law has been drawn up to expropriate certain land on coun- ty road 5 in the township of Ste, pion, We Tecom7nel1d that thisi by-law be passed. Two by-laws have been prepared in -order to relocate the tri -county bridge located on the boundaries of Huron, Middlesex and Land/ - ton: thee ifirst, expropriating the land required for the new bridge approaches, and the second, to adtl this section of road to the County 2toad System, We recom- mend that these bylaws' be pea sed, For your information we are pleased to report that our winter control costs for the month of December alone are down $22,000. over the same period of 1958.

By making these things ourselves, we have earned a standard of living admired throughout the world. Nearly half of all employed Canadians work in manufacturing. Without our factories we would be principally employed in producing raw materials for other nations to process. We enjoy our present way of life because we work not only on the land but also in modern factories. One way to maintain this is to buy Canadian -made goods.
