The matter was brought to a head at this see -Edon by a lett& from the inePector of legal offices, Hugh Donald, informing. Connell that there was not enough vault space in the courthouse to house legal detiinents. •Same Request in 1945 County Clerk -Treasurer A. H. Erskine told council that in 1945 the insrpeceor had made the same report to council. It was that re- port which prompted the 1946 de- cision to build. Architect L. G. Bridgman, of London, drew plans " and council Issued debentures for $2&0;000. Council 'already had $100,400 in vic- tory (bonds. At that time, he said, it was difficult to get •materials, •ao the proposal was shelved from year to year. But the county retained the $350,000 singe it had passed a by- law earmariiingif it for a construO- tign of a new courtheuee only, and on the same site as the present building. • Last year, the clerk -treasurer said, the inspector sent a letter saying the 'county. must provide acpommodation for lady* jurors. Nothing was done, since construe - Om of the new wilding was' still in the offing. Mr. Erekiue pointed out that the county pays 0\11t $325 each month to rent offeces outside the courthouse for county departments; $165 for the health unit's office in Clinton; 375 ,far the Children's Aid Society headquarters; 355 for the Huron Counity Library; and $30 for the county assessor's office. Accommodation for these offices, he said, has been planned in the new building. • PAINTING • PAPERHANGING Interior and Exterior Decorating SEE OUR 1954-. WALLPAPER DESIGNS WALTER.

He said also that he felt the Provincial Government could either make a grant toward the cost of the new structure or pay rent for provincial offices in it. At present, the Government pays no rent for its offices) and provides no assist- ance for a nee ,building. Mayer .1. E. Rucking, of •Gode- etch, present es a •speotator during the ,eroceed'ings, told council that it could be assured the town would "to -operate to the fullest extent" to assist the county in finding tem- porary, accommodation. He aoggesrted the meeting be- tween County Council's property committee and the town council to make arrangements to use the old Collegiate. At present the Sheaffer Pen Company is using part of the old collegiate to train employees, but it is expected they will move some- time in March. Pay For Home First Clerk- treasurer Brs,lripe t o l d council he would not suggest start ing construction this year, since the County wishes to finish ,pay- ing for the addition to the County Home, which is nearing comple- tion., It is proposed to levy $125,- 000 this year to pay for the dem- pletion -of this ,project. Council levied $50,000 for the addition the past tweeyeara. Efe said .that the lease on the health unit office in Clinton ex- pires in Jtme and suggested mov- ing that office to the olds Collegiate building at that time. Perhaps, he said, the remaining county offices could be moved in the fall. He suggested also that the new courthouse could be built without issuing debentures, as was done with the County Home addition, ands the county could levy an amount each year on the tax rate toward the cost. The vault space, he said; was definitely lacking. Councillors found that out .last week when they toured the building and found all drawers in the vaults felled, and legal documents packed into orange crates and apple boxes on the floor. No time was set for the meeting between the property committee and Goderich Towit Council, but it was expected the two groups would get together within the next few weeks to make necessary ar- rangements( "Will you still. love me when my hair has turned grey, dear?"

Chaffee, superior tendert, in a report to council, said the sooiety in 1953 was beton ested in 156 children, in. 54 fam- ilies and now has 74 cbllda*ea in its care. Twenty-four children were placed in adoptive homes and 27 final adoptions 'were completed. The society made 5,060 vieets, had 2,694 interviews, attended 119 conferences, gave 15 addressee and travelled 38,664 miles. Defer Road Increase To June Meeting A move to have the road rebate to urban municipalities increased from 40 to 50 per cent was tabled until its June session by Huron County Council. In its report, the county roads committee said it would .report on the proposal in June. Reeve R. E. Molienney,--of Wing - ham, who advocated the increase, said that ,since Huron intends to decrease the road account by one milli this year, amounts of the re- ibates would be reduced. He Delet- ed out that the reduction would represent close to a mill to Wing - ham. He said he felt council was mod- ing in the right direction last year when it increased the rebate. "But I am disappointed today," he said. "I wish there had been action taken at this session since the municipalities will have their ,bud- gets set before June." $1500 to Hospital 1 If No Surcharge Wingham' Hospital will get a grant of $15;000 from County Coun- cil this, year for construction of a new wing only if the hospital agrees not to levy a surcharge on county patients. This wasp the decision of the Cotincil after a record vote showed 16-14 against the sureb:arge. Spearheading a move to- have the surcdtarge levied was 'Reeve R. E. McKinney, of Wingham, who point- ed out that Ashfield and Grey were the only townships in the area served by the hospital who did not contribute to a drive for funds. "I don't think the people of these townships should expect 4o eo to the Wingham Hospital and not pay a surcharge," he said. Debate on the subject came up when council was considering var- ious grants. The 'surcharge rider to the hospital grant also includes a clause stating that the money will be, paid when corntst'ruotion is started. Last year council allot- ted a grant of $20;000 to be paid when construction is started. 5 ...theresra//ya differe„ce Veteran's CAB GEORGE H. MILLER. Prop.

A writer and lecturer on crea$ve writing at the University of West- ern Ontario, he reminded council that Huron, was the original county in the Canada Com p ny. "Bruce - Coutele has had three histories written, while Huron hes not haci anry," he said.
