Were we really too busy? Or, did we just gloss over the fact that traditionally this has been a time of thanksgiving? After all, it's hard to feel thankful in tough times like these. Unemployment figures are high. Many people are facing financial. emotional and health problems. Many people have difficult .decisions to make. Many feel frightened and alone. Another depressing story can be heard every hour on the hour just by tuning in the radio news. Surely we can be forgiven if we're a little stingy with our feelings of thankfulness, But, the tradition of Thanksgiving in Canada and other countires has survived many tough times - the Depression. two World Wars and countless other crises and tragedies. When we think about the first Thanksgiv- ing Day. it seems filled with irony. What did the English Puritans who founded the Varna Next Sunday, Goshen church will celebrate their anniversary. Guest preacher is Key, Alex Taylor. There will he activities in the Plymouth Colony in Massachussets in 1620 have to be thankful for? They were thankful, I suppose, that their sea journey had finally ended. Months of, battling gales, illness, grief, fear and uncertainty on the sea were over, They were thankful, t suppose, that they were finally standing on solidground, even though the new land was strange and hard, Ahead of them lay months, years. of backbreaking work and more illness, hard ships, fear and uncertainty. Perhaps they' gave thanks for having met and conquered the challenge of their sett - voyage. And, maybe they even gave thanks having the opportunity to embark on another challenge. Perhaps that is the key to•the longevity of the tradition of Thanksgiving, because life is a series of challenges - challenges met by individuals, communities and nations. , Being able to meet and conquer a challenge, then move on to another. is something to be thankful for, And, knowing we are not alone on our journey.` is another reason for gratitude. Add to that, the beauty around us. the presence of family and freinds and the treasure of memories. All in all it gives us a great deal to be thankful for. even in tough times like these.

Look at museum cost, county asked The present museum building is a fire trap and all the artifacts would be lost in the event of a fire members of Goderich council were told by a joint committee of Huron County council recently. The property committee of council met with the county's joint development and prop• erty committee September 2'. to discuss the possibility of the county moving the Huron County Pioneer Mu• seum to Vanastra. The county joint committee feels the artifacts should be housed in a fireproof build ing and that relocation is more feasible than construe• tion of a new building. It has been suggested that a new building could cost as much as 54 million to meet govern- ment standards. Architect Don Snider indi- cated that the former radar school building in Vanastra is in good condition despite being vacant for 12 years. He explained that water has not damaged the structural capa- bilities of the building but added that part of the roof would require repairs. The floors of the Vanastra building were designed to carry a load o&SI pounds per square foot and while the building code requires a load c opacity of 100 pounds per square foot for a museum, the architect claimed the building could withstand the required load He said the building is Water Well DRILLING W.

The county joint committee admitted that no studies have been conducted on the pre. sent museum building and that an operating cost tom• parison of building a new museum or relocating has not been contemplated. Members of the town thele• gation suggested it would be wise for the county to conduct studies on the costs of a new building compared to the costs of relocating the arti• facts and refurbishing the Vanastra building. It was suggested that the study should include construction costs of a new museum. o- perating costs of each struc- ture. costs to relocate exhl' bits, projected revenues and an investigation of services as tillable in each municipality relating to fire protection. zehrs fine mark .!,, nr filo' r„r,ch OFF •r • "'LOWEST PIIICED HOLIDAYS "':oCZr" PACKAGES policing, water. sewage and • garbage collection.
