"That the Department of Ed- ucation be requested to consid- er amending the present legis- lation relative to the establish- ment of county libraries in such a manner that when a by-law has been passed by county coun- cil establishing a county lib- rary System, then all member municipalities of " the county should' become automatically part of the said system." Townships of Bay, East Waw- anosh and Morris still absent themselves from the system, and in order to be included in, the service for 1967 would have to, join by February 15, 1967. Goderichr a former hold-out made application at the begin- ning of the session to become an integral part of the County Library System. Reeve Thompson, speaking to the report said problems arise where two municipalities come together for library purposes and only one of the 'two is a member of the County Library System. James Hayter, reeve of Steph- en drew attention to a situa- tion ' in Dashwood where the village is split in two by the' boundary between Hay and Stephen. He asked if Hay resi- dents could remain on the lib- rary board when Hay Town- ship was not a County Library member.

'Elgin Thompson, Tucker - smith reeve learned that any money presently held by the former library boards could be either turned back to the mun- icipality or given to the County Library Board' who would pur- chase books for that municipal- ity's library. It is only when the County Library Board is the pur- chasing agent that full grants can be received. Morris reeve Stewart Procter was informed there was no truth in the rumour circulating in his township that .a library must be located on a ground floor. Clare Vincent, reeve :of Hullett said the township had no other library than the one in the Central School,at Londes- boro and wondered if under the new system, Hullett people could use the library there. He was told it would>be a matter for the Hullett Township School Board to decide. Reeve Procter suggested each library be sent a budget report guidline ° to facilitate persons unfamiliar with the preparation of financial statements. A qualified' county librarian must be 'engaged, council was reminded. Concluded Duff Thompson, "A tremendous -amount pf work is neeesssary -to evolve from the Huron Cougty Library Co-oper- ative Board to the County Lib- rary Service." Seek S,olution For Stray Dog Problem It 'was indeed a "doggone" long discussion on the problems of stray dogs in Huron County; American hunters who clean up the County's game and some- times leave their dogs behind; and the increasing threat of rabies. Reeve kenneth Stewart set off the free -wheeling enquiry session with a call for County Council to try to find some sol- ution for the 'increasing rabies threat. He said human life and comfort was endangered by the growing number of known rab- ies cases in the County and cit- ed an incident recently where a young girl died when the anti- rabies vaccine failed. ..."There were 63, known cases: of rabies in the County last year,' Stewart reported. Carl Dalton, reeve of Seaforth said although the town was "pol- luted with dogs" .the Ontario Humane- Society made the, .re: quirements for dog pounds so strict that the municipality was unable to maintain one. He charged that dog catchers were not permitted to 1ay hold of a dog unless the animal was run- ning on a street or highway. He maintained that. a dog should be shot. if it was—running- at large, untagged and unwanted. Ernie Talbot, reeve of Stan- ley reported. it was his under- standing that if are animal was causing damage, it could be disposed of legally under -the Livestock Protection Act. In Stephe•n Township, . report- ed reeve James Hayter persons could catch stray dogs and im- pound them at the township's expense at a veterinarian ken- nel in Exeter. If' the dogs are unclaimed after four days, they are destroyed, he added. Jack Alexander, deputy reeve of Wingham suggested that a county dig catcher be retained. Carl Dalton asked that corres- pondence with the Ontario Hu - Little lis lin i arks g While Huron County council- lors seem agreed that some ef- foYt' 'should be made by them to celebrate Canada's Centen- nial Year and the Centennial Anhiversary of Huron County Council, very little in the way. of imaginative planning was ev- ident at the January session' in Goderich last week. Centennial committee, Delbert Geiger, deputy reeVe of Hay Township and Howick Reeve Harold Robinson, appointed at the final meeting of 1966, Coun- ty Council, asked, this 'year's ,council for some direction. Alvin L. Smith, Turnberry reeve said his first suggestion for a Centennial Worship Ser- vice was in keeping • with' the thought that County Council should take the lead in main- taining Christian principles in Huron, Discussion from the floor showed that most communities in Huron County were planning Centennial worship services of their own. Zurich Reeve Leroy Thiel wondered if County Council would only be duplica- ting the intentions of others. Tuckersmith Reeve Elgin ThompSOn extended an invita- tion to the county to plan their Centennial activity in Bruce - field. Mrs, Minnie Noakes, llensall reeve said she felt 'county coun- cillors with their w(es and her husband should make an appear- ance in the Court House Square sometime during' Centennial Year to participate in a devo- tional service to pay tribute to pioneers and dedicate them- selves for another 100 years. }tarry Worsell, Goderich dep- uty reeve agreed, the celebra- tion could be held hi cggrijunc, tion with some Centennial func- tion in the county town during 191. He offered to contact the Goderich Centennial Planning Coinniittee itt this regard, mane Society preceed any de- cision by the Health Committee, to which the problem was re- ferred. At the mention of "wild dogs" in the County, reeve Jack. -Cor- bett, -Hay, said parties .of Am- erican hunters were known to .drive through a bush and when they were unable to recall their dogs, left the animals there, to become wild creatures hunting food where they could find it. Other members of council con- curred that wild dogs were fair- ly common in the County and agreed that other game, parti- cularly deer, were being driven off by the 'dogs. Reeve James Hayter said that Essex and: Kent counties in the Southern part of the province had banned Americans as hun- ters there. He recommended on a petition of 'some Stephen rate- payers that similar action be taken in Huron where hunters from across the border arrived in sufficient numbers to strip the Huron bushlands of every- thing that lived. A motion brought in at the Thursday afternoon session by Reeve Hayter, seconded by Stephen deputy reeve E. Hen- drick and endorsed _by Hay Township deputy reeve Delbert Geiger called for the members of the Agriculture and ttefores- tation committee to consider a recommendation that American residents be banned from hunt- ing game in the county of Hur- on.

Incl-uded in his greeting to county councillors for 1967, Mayor Mills made three pro- posals for consideration by coun- cil: that County Road assess- ment should be re-examined; that the County should manage all welfare claims; and that a special grant be made to (he county town earmarked for the purpose of improved lighting of the approaches to Goderich, Benmiller Revamped? Reeve rktff Thompson. Clin- ton, expressed delight at the formation of the new Tourism and Industrial Committee of C'oilnty Council and proposed a project for consideration by the members. Reeve Thompson said Ben - miller was being overlooked as a possibly tourist attraction in 'Huron, and with the establish- ment of parks and picnic facili- ties, revitalization of the his- toric Woollen Mill and a little good management, the sj,ot could become a thriving area with indirect remuneration to all parts of the County. • "You 'can't never tell' about these, here wimmen drivers," ys Uncle Fud. "The other day in traffic X saw one. She didn't even have her turn sig.- nal ignal on. Sure enough, she didn't turn. You just -ean't ever tell What they're goin' to dot" Looks t Centralia William. Urquhart of Midwes-, tern Ontario Development Aso - tion, better known as '44101)A" told County council members in. Goderich last Thursday that an intensive report on the possible future of Canadian Forces Base at Centralia should be complete, by'April. He said his group was mak- ing a survey of several similar bases in the United ` States which had been closed for var- ious reasons. The ' Centralia base is expected to be complete- ly abandoned by military per- sonnel in late August of this year. Urquhart also hinted a study to determine the possibilities of commercial useage of the har- bour at Goderich' other than for shipping grain and salt. With respect to industrial growth in Huron County, the MODA •representative said small industries — branch plant operation types that would grow with the community would be the most likely to locate here. James Hayter asked , if in- dustry was asking for a hand- out. "Just what' are they look- ing for," inquired the Stephen reeve. Mr. Urquhart listed available labour, reasonably priced land, access to service centres, 'access to transportation, housing in a stable community and co-opera- tion as the most sought after attributes in sites for industry. "They are not looking for handouts," he. emphaized. "They don't want deals.'3 • Other Business In other business, council ap-. proved, a' raise for the County Auditor A. M. Harper from $3,00 in 1966 to $3,300 in 1967; accepted the "tender of the Sea- forth News for the printing of County Council minutes 'at a cost of $3.80 per page;' agreed to• question all municipal coun- cils to determine the value of the minute books; concurred with Stephen Reeve Jamfts Hay- ter that instead of twb Cana- dian flags in the council cham- bers, one should be exchanged for the provincial flag; explor- ed the possibility,pf a trip to Expo '67 for members of Coun- ty Council.
