THE BLYTH STANDARD, Nov, 7, 1973, PG.3. I pointed out that what this does, in effect, is to encourage the retention of ownership by the father until his death and confines estate planning to be carried out mainly under the terms of a Will. I suggested the inclusion of., forgiveness of debts related to the purchase of farm property by a member of the family would encourage fathers to turn over their farms to their sons - during their lifetime rather than on their death. This Ls the only kind of long term estate planning that makes any sense. It gives the son the security he has to have in order to remain on the farm during die father's lifetime, Ontario ASSESSMENT REVIEW COURT NOTIGE Of HEARING TAKE NOTICE that the first sitting of ,the Assessment Review Court for the year 1973 to hear complaints against assessment for tax- ation in 1974 in the Village of Blyth will be held at Wingham Town Hall, Wingham, Ontario. at 10:00 a.m. on November 26, 1973., 'Appellants will be notified by mail of the date and time at ,which their complaint will be heard.

McMASTERIEST Maas at Blyth every Sunday at 9a. m, 4 Whiteasksfor. county akt. ` Treasurer John White last week invited county officia]s.to sub- mit their suggestions for guide- - lines. on the restructuring of Ontario's "county governments. He told=the, annual congention of the Association of Counties " and Regions of Ontario that future initiative for local government reform must come from the cou- nties themselves, not from .. Queen's Park. . , - He said the government can - now .look 'at problems of coup- . ties•because the regional gover- nment program -his been concl- uded with restructuring in most of the -rapidly developing.areas of Ontario, - ,Like the, regional government ' program, county restructuring Is • intended`to'strengthen-local government so,that,.it can cope with the -problems it faces and carryout its responsibilities ef- fecely. p . Because the government int- ends to give restructured •cou- nties the same grants it now gives to regions, the, restructuring must be real and not merely'tin- • kering. As a starting point, the government believes that to qualify, for grants restructured • counties -should probably provide seven services: water, sewage collection and 'treatment, an -arterial road system, planning, health services, a welfare pro- gram, and ,capital borrowing. Mr. .White recalled a presen- tation on local government reform made by several mun- icipal associations which listed four majotphases of reform. The, four, which he said the government' endorsed;; are: - Consolidation of local mun- icipalities; _ - = - R"eturn of cities and separated - towns to their'counties; - = Equitable representation on county councils; and Enlarging and updating .the - responsibility of Lc -minty -Milts. A fifth factor is the need to -. tailor local government to suit November not too late for gardening • Gardening isn't over'yet. - Here are some November rem- inders from Russ Gomme, a horticultural specialist for 'the Ontario Ministry .of Agricul- - ture and Food: •If you want to grow shrubs, .take your, hardwood cuttings now, frons mock orange, for- sythia and alpine currant.bus- hes for example. Strong, hea- lthy cuttings -about pencil thi- ckness are best. Cut them into' six-inch lengths, tie them in bundles and bury them in well -drained soil. Next spring they can be planted and, with proper care, they will grow-. into plants similar to the parent , stock.. For your indoor gardening, remember to prepare a soil mixture for repotting plants. This "should b'e done _before heavy frost penetrates the soil. Flowering bulbs can still be planted.in many areas. Plant them as soon as possible inwell-drained soil,. so they have a chance to root before extreme weather arrives. Tender garden plants.. need protection for the'winter, but wait until the, ground, freezes. Then mulch with a•layer of peat moss, .clean straw or grass clippings. Give lawns and gardens a• last minute cleanup to keep them attractive all winter.:. Add plant residues to a compost pile. - Clean out eavestroughs, adding the dead leaves,to the compst.= By tidying up in Nov- , ember, you reduce the number of jobs to be done next spring. local needs, added' the Treasurer, who is",also Minister of, Economics. and'l ntergoveriprne'ntal Affairs, .These principles,.he pointed out;. formed the basis for.' the regional' government program, - Mr, White suggested'seven basic criteria by which a restru- ctured county might be, judged, but emphasized that these •inat- ters are under consideration' and have not been endorsed by the_ Cabinet. " The seven suggested criteria ares 1..• Reviewing ,all aspects of to-' cal government within the county. 2, Involving the separated towns or cities. - 3. Determining present servicing responsibilities. '4. Examining the county's econ- omic resource,. assessment and" financial bases. S. Defining the problems facing the area, --With particular refer- ence to present organizations and structures; 6. i ncouraging public awareness, participation and understanding of issues by, among otherthings, publishing the county's findings and recommendations, 7. Submitting these findings and recommendations to the affected municipalities and the minister. He further suggested a number of,items that a restructuring study should examine, including pop- ulation pressures; the boundaries of local municipalities and the county itself; existing commun- ities of interest between various population centres in or near the county; the relationship between the county and the cities and sep- arated towns; the organization of county council; the appropriate division of responsibilities; the elimination of special-purpose bodies; and.the degree of acc- ountability and responsiveness that could or should be provided by the organizational frame work, Mr. White said that he will recommend to the government that the province pay SO per cent of the costs of such studies, up td a maximum provincial expen- diture of $50, 000.

For most people, it - remains a dream. When Triple K Restaurant holds its grand opening cele- bration this weekend on the south side of- Blyth, however, a dream for Mr, and Mrs, Keith Hesselwood will have come true. The neat little restaurant sitting just off Huron County Road 25 three blocks east of the junction of Highway 4 has been a goal for Kay Hesselwood ever,since she started working at the Elm Haven Motor Hotel in Clinton in the early 1960's. Since then, ; i,.n working at var- ious eating places throughout the county, she has hoped for . the day when she would have a small place of her own. Now she has it. ' The Hesselwoods lived at R.R. 1, Londesboro for many years until they decided to open tHhir restaurant, They sold the farm this spring and purchased three lots from Mr. and Mrs. Ben Walsh on the south east side of Blyth where they erected a home. Shortly after they had moved into their new home, construction began on the Triple K Rest- aurant, so -named because of Keith, Kay and their son Ken. Contractor for the new building was Huron Pines Ltd. of Clinton and despite some setbacks, Mrs. Hesselwood • • said, she was pleased at the rapid completion of the building. The attractive building has tables _in:.the.diningroom for 24' persons `and four mare Stools at;the coffeebari: Mr`s, ' Hessel- Wood had hoped for 'completion of the downstairs banquet room for the opening, • but construe="'� " tion problems will delay it's we. When finished, the...do n:af airs M11 provide a quiet banquet room for' groups of approximat- ely 30 persons or less. Mrs, Hesselwood presides over the kitchen and is no novice. She brings,ta her.bus- iness an impressive background in dining. After beginning at the Elm Haven in,1965, she moved on to the dining room of the _Queen's Hotel, Seaforth in the fall of 1966 and until January 1971 was in charge of .the dining room operation. Last year she also supervised the • restaurant at Dale's Esso, Grand Bend from May to Thank- sgiving. Before -opening her own restaurant this year, he worked in the kitchen of Clinton Public Hospital. The Triple K is one of the few restaurants around where you won't have to worry about res- tricted hours. The food is ready at 6:30 a. m. and you can have a full -course meal ac,snack from then on until 11 p. m. on weekdays and later on weekends. ISDN YOUR HANDS _n Q Besides the coffee bar and dining room, there is also a takeout window for those who want to eat in the car or at home, Inside, the restaurant is bright and cheery. Wooden panelling warms the rooms and well -padded chairs from Dur- ham Chair and Store Fixtures • ltd. give comfort to the diners. The floor is carpeted. Though the building looks small from the,putside (only 24 feet by 30 feet), inside the dining area is not cramped. It is well planned so the tables can be served with a minimum of wasted time by the staff, yet with out crowding the customers. Also working in the new res- taurant besides the Hesselwoods is Audrey Walsh of Blyth. Besides son Ken who lives at home, the Hesselwoods have two daughters, Brenda, Mrs. Brian Finlayson of Staffa and Verna of Seaforth, THE BLYTH STANDARD, Nov. 7, 1973, PG.

Present rate of $1.80 became effective February 1, 1973, The minimum rate will apply to all employees except stud- ents under the age of 18. The student rate will be $1.65 per hour. • The minimum rate foe con- struction employees will inc- rease from $2. 05 to $2.25. Guards on construction sites will receive 'the sanie rate. Mr. Guindon said the pur- pose of the minimum wage was to give .workers whose bargain- ing power is limited a measure • of protection against exploitat- ion. He said the minimum wage would be continually - under review and if circum- stances so warranted, he would have no hesitation in recom• - mending further increases in the minimum wage. Mr. Guindon also proposed amendments to The Employ- ment Standards Ad on stat- utory holidays, annual vaca- tions and premium pay for overtime. • The amendments will re- quire that all employees will receive four statutory holidays with pay -- Good Friday, Dom- inion Day, Labour Day and Christmas Day -- in 1974. This provision.will be extended, to include New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day and Victoria Day as holidays with pay on January,l, 1975. Effective January 1, 1974, all employees will be entitled to two weeks annual vacation with pay -after one .year emp- loyment.

DAMPS Forecast Period; November 18 to November 25, 1973 Delp is coming your way. 'A chain of events , plus the support of a friend, will push you ahead of competition, So, look for the big break! Behind the scene manipulations are working against' your job, project or mission, Animosity is spreading among your routine associates, Keep your guard up, Don't let smiles fool you, Your "inner sense" for judging character is sharply honed, Don't let words or gestures mis' lead you.

Whatever you hear about .a member of the op. posite sex, this week . , , forget it! To clarify, whether you hear bad or good • the opposite will be true, understand? Financially, this week's forecast portrays many soft roots, Emotion, rather than logic, could prevail, in monetary 'transactions. Obviously, you know what that means. To say thr least, this cycle, is not one of your best.

The bus left -at 9:00 and by 10:45 a. m. they were: at the birthplace of Lt. Colonel John McCrae who is the author of 'lIn Flander Fields"l There, they toured the historical home and.learned about his life -and family., This information received, will -be presented in -an asee mbly.-later.this month. After eating lunch at the Kortright Waterfowl Park, the students viewed slides pertaining to the -expedition they would follow through a woodland area. Despite periods of rain they tra- mped onward seeing over 50 different spicies of birds. This reserve is one' of many branches aiding'theOntario Wildlife Soc- iety. ' - - Next the group travelled to the University of Guelph, to tour through the Library there. An assistant in the organization ex- plained about the system of borrowing books. On the :journey homeward they stopped to see the only covered bridge in Ontario still in use near Elmira. The bus arrived at the school at 5:15 as planned. This ended a very interesting and educational trip. KINDERGARTEN FIELD TRIP On Wednesday morning, October 31, .both classes of the kindergarten room went on a field tr ip to Seaforth. Mrs. Livingston, the grade five teacher assisted Miss Adams, the kindergarten teacher as fire chief Don Hulley and deputy chief Jim Sills explained about their equipment. The fire truck and tanker were observed by the children. The fire officials rang the fire siren which is located on top ' of the fire hall.

Exploring the Australian tropics with the Campbells Hugh and Orlena Campbell continue their working•tour of Australia and report to the Standard's readers through • letters to Hugh's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Campbell of Blyth. Oct. 13, 1973. Dear Mom & Dad: Here w_ a are in the tropics again in the town of Kather- ine. We have spent the last two days coming "up the track" through very boring country and suffering from the heat. ,,,!,Katherine registers 100 degrees ',continually and varies only a few:Tdegrees at night. We put in our'.worst night last night since last summer, due to humidity and being dive bom- bed by those pesky critters known as mosquitoes. Phil spent the last to weeks with us touring Central Aust- ralia. We spent an enjoyahle weekend touring Ormiston - Gorge, swimming in a deep cold water hole .there, which is spring fed. 'We then deci- ded to go back ,to Palm Valley where there are Paint trees out in the desert. The nearest relatives of these trees are • 1, 200 miles away on the West coast, so they figure this area was once very tropical. The raod to this valley is classified as a four wheel drive track as it follows the dandy bed of the Finks River. We had gone to the place before and liked the .valley very much, -We explored fcr two days then had considerable trouble get-. ting out because of the sand. Our next trip was driving out to Ayers Rock with 250 miles of gravel road, but no problems. We spent three enjoyable days climbing and walking around the rock and walking among the,Olga Mts. The Rock is quite magnific- ent sitting out on the flat_ plain with its red tinge. It Is 1,100 ft, high and five miles around at the base. It is a very steep climb to the top, but a safety -chain is located on the steepest slopes and it is quite smooth. Time people have been killed climbing it•but if you take your time, no worries. We enjoyed the Olgas very much. They are a cluster of dome shaped Mts, and much higher than Ayers Rock. . Our next mail won't be till another two weeks. We have 1,000 miles of gravel to look forward to between here and Perth, so wish us luck. DOWN THE WEST COAST Oct. 24. Dear Folks: Well, here we are in the "sun city of Geraldton" after a long and boring trip from Katherine. It has taken us almost two weeks and have not had too • many scenic sights on the way down. TheOrd River dam, which is being built for irriga- tion purposes, is a big project in the Kimberlys. There is so much country here which would be good farming land TODAY'SCHILD BY HELEN ALLEN THE TORONTO Cj19N SYNDICATE The summer was a good time for George. He got a sleeping bag for his 12th birthday and since he loves to camp, he was sleeping out at every opportunity. Baseball and swimming are favorite warm weather activities for George but he doesn't mourn over winter because he likes hockey too. Anglo-Saxon in descent, George is a good-looking boy with brown hair, hazel eyes and medium complexion. He is in good health. He is shy on first meetings but has a pleasant per- sonality. George is in Grade six where his work is slightly below average. He says he wants to be a mechanic. Besides sports, he has a variety of interests. He builds models and enjoys movies and TV with western and suspense themes. (A current favorite is Kung Fu.) George chooses pop music for listening. He has a good voice and likes to sing in the church.. choir and at Sunday School: He would like to live in the country and to have older brothers and sisters. . What George needs most is acceptance and love, a family who enjoys doing things together and the security. of a planned and consistent home life. To inquire about adopting George„please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2, For general, adoption information please contact your local Children's Aid Society. HE LIKES MECHANICAL THINGS U there was only enough moi- sture. Our next stop -was Geckle Gorge at Fitzroy Crossing, • _ where'we took a boat ride up - the Fitzroy R, through some very interesting limestone gorges.. During floods the river rises and creates a white water line which -is' quite beautiful against the dark - - rock. Ori the way up the river we saw two trees covered with flying foxes. They are large bat -like creatures with a fox- like head and they hang upside down. We also' saw two small crocodiles. Then on to Broome which was like coming into heaven with the beautiful Indian Ocean waiting for us. Cable Beach was wonderful with its pure white sandand warm water. Broome was a very busy pea- rling portln the old days, but not so much anymore, There are a lot of Malay, Chinese and Japaneseas they used to do most of the diving for pearls.'.. The next part of our journey. we were not looking forward to at all as it consisted of• . 353 miles of dirt road to Port Hedland but we made it quite well. We saw a lot of Emus and began to see a lot of wild flowers. The Murch- ison River 'cuts a very inter- esting path through the country.. It cuts a very deep channel through sandstone In a series of sharp loops. It travels five miles but only gets a few hundred yards. closer to the sea. The sandstone cliffs are beautiful and from the top- we saw a wild pig and a herd of goats. There seems to be a lot of goats in W.A. We bye Geraldton, it's so beautiful and,:clean and we..; didn't realizewiliat we had been, missing in -regards to a • shopping center. - It has been .. three_ months `ince we saw so many shops. It's just like coming out of the bush. When we turned into main st. we were bug-eyed, It's strange --what you can get used' to and forget about the other things.' The country: around here is beautiful as itis a big wheat:' growing area and everything is a 'golden colour. How are the autumn colors this;year? I would like to see those maples again, Who won the World Series? All for now, . Hugh and Orlena • REMEMBRANCE Wh.hirIt's a MONUMENT • MARKER • INSCRIPTION You are remembering a Ior0 o•'e. LET T.

At any rate, in those days ' 1 knew the .game. From there it was all downhill. The Yanks took over, and, as usual, we adopted their terms; Outside wings became ends. Middle wings became tackles, Inner wings became guards, And the flying wing, my own favourite position, vanished into limbo, Today, i am as baffled by the terminology of football as an ' elderly librarian would have been by the terminology rat the' recent fighter.pilots' reunion in Ottawa. What is a tight end, for example? is that what we see when the players go into a huddle, and stick those extremely tight pants into our faces on TV. What is the opposite of a tight end? Is this someone who has the skitters? Is that why they are always running off the field? What is an offensive tackle? Is this someone whose language or behaviour you find offensive to;your. sensibilities? Is the familiar phrase, "I gave him a pretty good shot,", an indication that the players are now carrying concealed, not to mention offensive, weapons? One of die universities is giving 'an extension course at its night school. it's for girl friends and wives of football players,' so that they can enjoy the game more, I think I'll sign up for the course, I'm dying to know what a middle line- backer does for a living, POST MAXWELL HOUSE INSTANT IUSIIR COFFEE 6 OZ, JAR $1.32 nisi) 13 OZ.

Two years never seems 'so long, or so short before. So many things have hap- pned in that two years that it seems impossible the time could have been so short. Yet.it's been such a busy two years, it seems impossible so much time could havegone by. In two years, Jill and I have gained a newspaper, a monthly magazine, a craft and book 'store, a new daughter, a new town to call home, a new office and new friends, .'. . , , and a good many new gray hairs. Yes,it has been quite a time. Bacwhen we decided we were going; to take over The Standard from Doug and Lorna -Whitmore I remember a great deal of shaking of heads on the part of some people I knew in the newspaper business. Some even came out and siad that. we had tolie nuts, that we coach-1ft make a newspaper work in this day"and age in a town as small as Blyth unless there was a job printing bus-. iness or something to: carry the burden of the tremendous costs involved today. There have been times, when I wondered if maybe they were right. But only at times. -Most of the time I've been able to hold that faith in small towns that I've had siace I grew up in a town not much bigger than Blyth. While the head shakers looked only at the population of the•town and the number of stores and com- pared it with bigger towns where newspapers were not getting rich, we looked instead at the spirit of the people in a small village: the spirit that makes them support things far more than people do in large centres. The spirit that makes them pull together, one for all and all for one. Treat people in a village fiarly, give them something for their money, and they! 11 support you, no matter what business you're in. And you have. The readers of this newspaper, more than anyone else, are responsible for Blyth still having a news- paper today at a time when many small town newspapers are being absorbed by other large newspapers. Moreover, The Standard is one of the few newspapers around that is independent, that is not part of a chain of newspapers. It is you, through your support ' that has made it that way, and it is you who will keep it that way through your continuing support. . The readers of the Standard have been a delight to work for over the last two years. I remember working fcr other newspapers where one simply dreaded Thursday morning. One simply wanted to stay in bed all day because he knew that at the office it would be a constant stream of phone calls; Why didn't you report on our club meeting? You spelled my name wrong; why wasn't there' a picture of our championship ping pong team in the newspaper? In some towns, you are ex- pected to be everywhere all the time if you run a newspaper. You are supposed to personally report on every meeting from the ladies! aid to'the Boy Scouts and give free plugs to every event in the community, with- out any paid advertisement being inserted. You are not supposed to eat or sleep or have time With your family but are to be at the. beck and call of everyone in the town at all hours, even those who do not buy the news- paper and call it a shabby rag whenever they talk with their friends. Blyth has not been that way, and for that I, my wife and my family say a hearty thank you. Our readers have been so kind, and so cons i derate that you want to break your neck to give them good service. They have always been ready With a pat on tjhe back when they appreciate something and with a thank you. They have been stingy with` criticism for mis- takes, even though, like any newspaper, we make our share. The readers of The Standard have been so good, I can some- times get a little aggravated. We can't even get critical• letters , to the editor over editorials, even though:we know that everyone out there can't be agreeing with our viewpoint. You, the readers, have been so wonderful over the past two years, that we feel you deserve only the best in service from your newspaper. With that in mind, The Standard will, in the next month, install new computerized typesettingequip- ment which will give this news- paper as modern facilities as any in Ontario. We hope to expand the size of the newspap- er and offer new features. We hope to give our readers as much or more news and views of interest as any other weekly newspaper in this part of Ont- ario. You deserve..it. But while the readers of The Standard are one of its big strengths, there is another group that can't be left out: the merchants who use The Standard to promote their bus- iness. Most, though sadly not all, of our merchants in Blyth are much more progressive than many of my old newspaper acquain- tances gave -them credit for being -when they said we were foolish to come to Blyth.,- They have realized that their own newspaper can help inform- - the -people of the area about their business and thus -see that more 'money is. spent at home and not.in other towns. • They have supported the,newspaper, and at the same time helped improve their -own business. 'And, just, -as important, they. have paid their bills on time, We've known of newspapers - that have had as much as $10,000 in unpaid bills on the books, Nothing wilt send a - newspaper on the rocks faster. But our merchants pay promptly and thus have kept The Standard - alive. t; • - The fight is not over. ' It' never is for a small-town newspaper. Costs" are soaring for newsprint; --printing, lab - ...our and other supplies. Yet The Standard is probably in a stronger. position now" than at any time for many years. If you, .the readers continue with your ex,cellent-suPport and if the merchants of Blyth continue to be progressive, The Standard will remain a part of the Blyth scene for many years yet. And, hopefully, it will be able to give you better service in the • future. Thank you Blyth. Clinton Carnival -.date' set 'Clinton's 1974 Winter Carn- ival will be held on February 1 to February 10, inclusive, it was decided ata meeting of the Carnival Committee rec- ently. • The Carnival will be kicked off with a snowmobile torchligjt parade and will end with the Kinsmen Snowmobile Races on Sunday Feb. 10. The meeting, which only attracted 12 people decided to give $2,000 of the $2,400 profit from the 1973 Carnival to Clinton Recreation Committee. The Carnival Committee stipu- lated that the $2,000 go towards the $5,000 cost of new lights which were erected on the soft- ball diamond this fall. The, meeting failed to come up with a new chairman to succeed Bill Crawford, who has held the post for the last two years. y�y �y� y� y�Y�yYy/�y/y/yy�j� �/��j��jy yy/ yy�yyy�/�jy/y�y�y� yy,ry�/�y�y�y,y�r/�/�j� 77,�IDartz777w�37�P]7smasetrsa �7W7 esmsD araltM�l7/dvemt rivsu]7�tmst rsviD/A171cros oasr?yNsmst�37acma s Taskers The Good IdeaSt� ore Santa's HelperHe w it h gifts fo r a II, Targe or small 1 5 1 1 1 3 1 1 A good selection of two 1_ piece Chesterfield Suites 1 to'choose from starting $189.95 Phone 523-4577 1 at Blyth 1973 DODGE MONACO, 4 door hardtop, fully equipped. with low mileage, 1973 CHRYSLER NEWPORT CUSTOM,air conditioned, fully powered, low mileage.. door, hardtop 1969 OIDSMOBILE, 4 door, sedan, 1969 FORD, 4 door, sedano power equipped,' radio 1969 METEOR, 2 door, hardtop, power equipped,- radio - 196,9 FALCON, 2 door, 6 automatic, with radio • 1969 CHRYSLER NEWPORT CUSTOM, 4 door, hardtop, power equipped with radio, 1968 SATELLITE, 2 door, hardtop, V-8 automatic, with radio. 1968.RIDEAU 500, 2:door, hardtop, V-8''automatic, power steering, power brakes. . 1970 SNOWMOBILE CRAYFORD MOTORS CHRYSLER - DODGE PLYMOUTH WINGHAM ONTARIO 357-3862 Help the Mentally Retarded TODAY • • volunteer lir give a donation • learn more about: 1 mental retardation Contact your local association s Rear to Wear a (__, �y 1 0 THE SHIRT DRESS. comes back.:in.favour this season 3 1 prom 59:951 1 A ml t.� Ladies & Intents B Iyth.Ont.
