engineers, and of fourth-class

Capacity
The County Home is operat-
ing virtually at capacity, and
the waiting list of , applicants
is "getting no smaller," council
was informed at Tuesday's sit-
ting. "Probably 30 names are
on the list," said deputy clerk -
treasurer B. G. Hanly. Super-
intendent H. C, Johnston had
reported 225 persons under
care -96 males. Nominal ca-
pacity is 225. The planned new
addition will add 75 beds. Cost
was estimated early in tle year
at $550,000.
Report of the Huronview
board, submitted by Reeve El-
gin Thompson, of Tuckersmith,
said it is hoped to have ten-
ders in "very early in the new
year." The board is to open
the tenders and make a recom-
mendation to January council
session. Financial arrange-
ments will then be coihpleted
and a final presentation, made
in March. With financing ap-
proved provincially, construc-
tion might start April 1.
Mr. Johnston reported per
diem cost at Huronview as $4.09
which he said compares with
$6 at Welland and $5.93 at the
Waterloo home.
"Homes that do not provide
nursing care can operate at
$2.50 per day, as in Perth," he
said.
There were 54 admissions to
Huronview during the year to
date, and 48 deaths.
On recommendation of the
warden's and personnel commit-
tee, council approved an in-
crease to $7,000 in the salary
of Huronview superintendent,
H. C. Johnston, with annual in-
crements of $200, up to $7,400,
and in the salary of John More,
assistant, to $6,000, with annual
increments of $300 to $6,900.
The county board of health,
in a report signed by ex -war-
den John .Morrissey, chairman,
recommended that a bylaw be
passed for the licensing and
�operation of nursing homes in
he county. It w. s explained
t the Municipar Amendment
ct, 1965, empowers a coun-
cils of all munici lities to
pass such bylaws. order that
local municipalities may receive
subsidy on payments for indi-
gent patients in nursing homes,
a bylaw must be passed stipu-
lating the minimum require-
ments in maintenance of the
nursing homes.
Reeve Calvin Krauter, of,Brus-
sels, called attention to the re-
quirement that in homes of un-
der 50 beds a registered nurse
or assistant must be on duty
24 „hours.4 a day, and that in
homes ,of 50 beds or more a
registered nurse must be on'
duty at all times. He pointed
out that such staff is hard to
obtain.
"This may clean up some
homes that are not so good,"
he said, "but it makes it diffi=
cult for those who are trying
to run good homes."
"Will it stop nursing homes
that haven't the required reg-
istered nurses?" asked Reeve
John Corbett, of Hay.
"No doubt this will be en-
forced ron new homes," said
Warden Glenn Webb. Register•
ed nurses are not available any-
way. This will be under the
health department and Dr. AI-
dis. Certainly we want con-
trol."
The report was adopted.
least 10 per cent of its total
assessment to school operation.
Only a small portion of Morris
Township is within the secon-
dary school area. Boyd Taylor,
RR 3, Walton, has been the re-
presentative for the past five
years.

Huron Avoids Precedent
Unwilling to set a precedent
by making a grant to the build-
ing fund of a privately operat-
ed home, Huron county council
by a 35-4 vote rejected an ap-
plication from Blue Water Rest
Home at Zurich for $130,000. It
had been supported by a four
man delegation earlier in the
session, and was supported in
the vote by Reeves John H. Cor-
bett, of Hay; Archie Ethering-
ton, Usborne, and Milton Oesch,
of Zurich, also, deputy reeve
Delbert Geiger, of Hay.
Reeve 4Reg JewQ11, Goderich,
chairman of the finance com-
mittee, which reported adverse-
ly, said the members had met
that morning and "the feeling
was that we should not get in-
volved in any further kinds of
enterprise. The county is con-
tributing, to five hospitals. An-
other reason that if we did get
into this, it would mean a two -
mill increase."
Deputy reeve Geiger: "Do
the committee members not feel
that this at a later date could
be quite a saving in a number
of dollars at our county home.
t would like a recorded vote,
to see how many councillors
are in favor of giving some sup-
port to a home such as this."
Reeve Corbett: "I think this
is a great help to the county.
It is situated in a very good
place, and great credit goes to
those men around Zurich who
have given their time and gone
ahead with this."
Reeve J. P. Gandon, Exeter:
"It may be that the men who
have inaugurated this have done
a 'fine thing for their commun-
ity, but this county is already
involved in the field of provid-
ing homes for senior citizens,
and the amount involved here
would go a long way toward
providing facilities under con-
trol of the county. The other
thing we had to face was that
if -we set a precedent here, any
community in this county could
form such a home and would
expect and deserve the same

consideration. This could cre-
ate a problem so far-reaching I
do not think the finances of
the county could cope with it"
Reeve Wilmer Hardy, Col-
borne: "Perhaps in a year or
two a smaller amount could be
provided by the county for a
number of these homes."
The report of Z't1s finance
committee, duly adoppfd, pro-
vided for a grant of $92,000 to
the building fund of Alexandra
and Marine General Hospital,
Goderich. This is based on 46
beds,, and will be paid "as funds
are available." The Godericif
board plans to demolish the old
part of the hospital, the' form-
er M. C. Cameron residence,
rebuilt.
County council appointments
to district secondary schools are
the same as last year: Wing-
hame, John Brewer; Seaforth,
Russell Bolton; Goderich, Rus-
sel Kernighan; Clinton, R. K.
Peck; Exeter, -Kenneth Johns.
Appointments of Mr. Johns and
Mr. Peck are for three years,
the others for one year. On
the South Huron board with
Mr, Johns are Roy Morenz and
Elmer Bell.
On recommendation of the
legislative and educational com-
mittee, presented by Reeve Ken-
neth Stewart, McKillop, council
concurred in a resolution from
North Norwich Township pro-
posing that private schools op-
erated by various groups be
brought up to the standard of
public schools in the same area.
Reeve Stewart, speaking to
the report, noted a lack' of in-
terest in civic affairs by ele-
mentary and high school stu-
dents, and also a lack 9f knowl-
edge on the part of these stu-
dents in matters pertaining to
all levels of government. The
place to remedy this would be
in the school curriculum. He,
therefore, moved: "That we re-
quest Hon. W. G. Davis to con-
sider the possibility of adding
to the present curriculum, at
the level the minister would
deem proper, a study in govern-
ment procedure at alt levels."
This was adopted, and copies
ordered sent to the member for
Huron and to other county
councils.
On recommendation of the
warden's and personnel commit-
tee, presented by Reeve Clifford
Dunbar, of Grey, council in-
creased the salaries of four
members of the jail staff by
$400 to $500.
