Zurich Citizens News, 1960-09-29, Page 3THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1960 Sugar and Spice (Continued from Page Two) dull and not worth a fiddler's foot. This year, we have a teen-ager of our own, and I've discovered that they are essentially lively, high- spirited, lovable, warm-hearted and fascinating young people, the hope of the future. ,k As a frazzled editor, putting a long work -week, I used to view with envy, and not a little indig- nation, the teachers ambling down- town about 4.30 each day. With other disgruntled ratepayers, I spent hours figuring out how many days they worked, how many holi- days they had, how much money they got, and how little they did for it all. Now I'm a teacher. I've been at it for only a couple of weeks, but I've caught on quickly. Already I realize that nobody is so vital to the welfare of the community as our teachers. No one is so over- worked, underpaid and unappre- ciated, as the teachers. I've learn- ed that teachers are completely un- interested in salary schedules, an- nual increments and superannua- tion figuree. They just do it for the sheer love of it. It all depends on where you sit. Co ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS PAGE THREE After 15 years 111 the airport business, Huron County is selling out, and turning Sky Harbor Air- port, north of Goderieh over to private ownership. At a special one -day session, Monday, council authorized the signing of an agree- ment to sell the airport to Keith Hopkinson, at a price of $25,000. Ralph Jewell, reeve of Colborne Township, an.a chairman of the county airport committee, reported that tenders had been called for the sale of the airport, and that Mr. Hopkinson was the only ten- derer. The history of the county's in- volvement in Sky Harbor began 20 years ago, when, as a wartime measure, the county bought land on the Lake Huron coastline, north of the mouth of the Maitland River, and gave it to the Dominion Gov- ernment for use as an air -training station. The Domiion Government subsequetly bought more land, to extend the runways. After the war, the county leased the airport from the Dominion, to keep the airport from being abandoned. For the past 15 years, Mr. Hopkinson has been a sub -tenant, renting most of the land and some of the biuld- ings from the county, and operat- ing the airport.

Hospital Grants A reserve fund, to provide for hospital grants over a period of four or five years, is to be set up by Huron County, it was decided at a one -clay special session on Monday. Frank Walkom, reeve of Gode- rich, and chairman of the county executive committee., said every hospital in Huron is now planning to build additions or extensions within the next few years. His com- mittee, he said, is thinking in terms of setting aside $25,000 or $30,000 a year to provide a fund for grants for hospital additions. Council approved the reserve -fund policy, without setting a figure. John Berry, county eleark-treasurer said he considered it might be pos- sible to start the reserve fund this year with $40,000. Revised estimat- es for 1960, said Mr. Berry, indicate that a surplus of about $65,000 niay be expected at the end of the year, taking into account the expected receipt of $25,000 from the sale of the Sky Harbor air- port property. Flag Needed After debate, which failed to define the issue. Huron County Council voted 19-15. to ask the Dominion Government to author- ize a distinctive Canadian flag. Some of those who spoke and voted against the resolution took the stand that Canada now has a flag. and that there is no need to change it. Some who voted for they believed Canada does not one. On one point all members seemed to agree -Canada's flag sh.ouid include the Union Jack. The debate came on a resolu- tion of St. Catharines City Coun- cil, with which Huron was asked to concur. It was put before council by the legislative commit- tee, of which Clarence Hanna, reeve of East Wawanosh, is chair- man, with a recommendation that Huron joined in asking the Dominion Government '"to pro- vide forthwith for the establish- ment of a distinctive Canadian flag." Opposed DST Opposition of Daylight Saving Time was put on record by Hu- ron County Council„ by a record- ed vote of 20 to 14. 4,0 The vote came on t ' resolution to endorse the camaign of the Women's Institutes4f West Hur- on, against Daylight Saving Time. In its submission to council the WI campaigners argued that Daylight Saving is "detrimental to the health of our school chil- dren, and of great inconvenience to our farm people." Mrs. Otto Popp, president of the West Huron WI district, re- orted that the WI opponents of Daylight Saving intend to "keep the question continually before those of our governments at all levels through letters and person- al contact until we ret some ac - ion.' r i - ,ai` J^m v mawx Blue Bfrd DIAMOND and WE DING RINGS The Rings The Bride Will Wear With Pride Before You Choose See The Selection In Our Window Display Insured Free FOR YOUR PROTECTION HESS, The Jeweller - ZURICH - ,;au�wnw�+'u'�'is.'i`-"sa.c^1,`??�i''.sr.:f3:�9u,. _eri> •=�' TOP PRICES i.kpAID FOR - CREAM 7GGS PO .TRY Give Us A Call !
