Howick $20,000; and Ormstown the remainder (about $100,000).In all cases, the interest from the capital will be used to aid senior citizens, either directly or indirectly, and will be administered by trusts\u2019 independent of the Low-cost Housing Bureau in each community.In Ormstown, the controlling group will be known as Residence Walsh Inc., and the money will probably be devoted to paying the 10 per cent of the Walshaven Residence\u2019s annual operating deficit which the government does not cover and which is officially the responsibility of the municipality.In Howick, Jean Billette of the local Municipal Housing Bureau told The Gleaner that a foundation will be formed to use the interest \u201cto benefit the elderly of the community as a whole\u201d and to answer their needs.In Huntingdon, another trust fund will be set up with Claude Ménard and Richard Alary as trustees.A meeting with other directors of the Huntingdon Municipal Housing Bureau is planned for this week to discuss the matter in more detail, but Ménard said that he thought that income from Huntingon\u2019s share of the money would be used to provide extras, such as emergency lighting, additional outdoor facilities, or special events for residents of the \u201cJoie de Vivre\u201d seniors\u2019 home.Speaking for the Walsh.Estate group, John Whitehead told The Gleaner, \u201cWe feel that the terms of Earl Walsh's will have now been fulfilled.The interest from the bequest was used to purchase an elevator for the Walshaven Home and to pay off operating and financing ici its fi 3 The total voter turnout of 410, + deficits for its first five years (including four spoiled of operation.\u201cMany original members of the Estate's board, first chaired by the late David See WALSH page 2 a Pe PR asm wT Arson possible of two The Huntingdon Provincial Police Detachment is currently investigating two fires, one in Huntingdon and the other in Havelock, which they suspect may be have been of criminal origin.The Huntingdon blaze was reported shortly after midnight Saturday evening at the Brisebois St.home of Robert Varin.Though Huntingdon Volunteer firemen rushed to the scene, the house, located in a new housing development, was heavily damaged to the tune of an estimated $30,000 Huntingdon QPP were called in by Town Police Chief Joffre L'Heureux, following a report by two members of the municipal force.On Mondav morning, experts from the Montreal-based QPP arson squad investigated the site and concluded there is a distinct possibility of arson.The case has been turned over to Agent Richard Guérin of the local QPP detachment.Havelock fire Late Monday evening, the serious Huntingdon QPP received another call, from the owner of a Havelock cottage, reporting that the building had been burnt sometime between November 15 and 30.Owner Marc Bourgoin of St- Timothée told police that he suspects that arson was an- Few clues Ormstown Caisse a .Vig ny \u201c LEANER A.CHRISTIAN SOUCY C.Soucy wins in Ormstown : When the Ormstown Village Council holds its December meeting next Monday evening, Christian Soucy will take his place in Seat 3, following an easy victory in Sunday's municipal elections.Soucy, who works at R.s.D'Amour et fils, an Ormstown building supply firm, ran up a total of 325 votes compared to 81 for his opponent, Micheline;

circumstances, there should be no increase in municipal property taxes for residents of the Town of Huntingdon in 1982, Mayor Gérald Brisebois stated Monday.The good news was part of the mayor\u2019s report on the current financial situation in the municipality, given at a special council meeting on Monday evening, at which Brisebois also indicated that the Town is hoping for an operating surplus for 1981, to add to the accumulated surplus of $95,981 which existed at the end of 1980.\u201c1981 has certainly been a good year for the town from the point of view of financial management.If the trend continues, there should once again be a surplus, with ex- Charter ifor MRC ; on rails In all probability, as of the beginning of January 1982, the du Haut-St-Laurent will indeed become a reality.In fact, following the third and final meeting of the provisory council of mayors held on-Thursday, Nov.26, at which all the mayors of the new MRC were present, it was agreed to accept the proposed charter.The president of the Consultative Committee for the Salaberry Zone, Gérald Pinsonneault, accompanied by Secretary Maurice Sauvé, informed the mayors at the meeting that the proposed plan would be reviewed by the Quebec Cabinet on December 9 and that there was a strong probability that it would receive official sanction at that time.The next step involves publishing the charter in Quebec\u2019s Official Gazette.With this, the MRC du Haut- St-Laurent would officially come into being.With regards to the name of the MRC, Pinsonneault explained that the name \u201cMRC du Haut-St-Laurent\u2019\u2019 has been sent to the Quebec Toponomy Commission and that he did not anticipate any difficulty in having it accepted.Following last Thursday\u2019s meeting, the only issue which remains somewhat of an obstacle in the presentation of the charter, is the manner in which the transition from the existing system to the new MRC will be carried out.A plan for transition originally proposed by the municipalities of the Chateauguay County Council was found to be unacceptable and for this reason the Consultative Committee made a suggestion of its own, This new plan, which respects the spirit of the proposal offered by the Chateauguay County Council, reads as follows: \u201cAll furnishings and properties belonging to the County Councils of Chateauguay and Huntingdon would become the property of the MRC du Haut-St-Laurent, which would assume responsibility for them.In the case of sale of a property previously belonging to one of the county councils, the profits from the same would be divided among the See MRC page 2 penses less than revenues,\u2019 the mayor said.\u201cThis is good news when one considers that the municipality has had to meet certain unforeseen expenses, for example, the purchase of pumps for the pumping station in the north part of town, and some major repairs to our heavy equip- 30 cents ment.\u201d Brisebois said that the Council plans to create a $50,000 rolling fund, using the accumulated surplus, a \u201clongtime dream\u2019 which would enable the town to meet unforeseen expenditures without having to borrow money at current high interest rates.Rescue dog honored The first American dog to be inducted to Canada\u2019s Purina Animal Hall of Fame, is four and a-half year old Bloodhound, Candy, seen here with owner

Hall of Fame on October 29, 1981.Along with owner McKay she has participated in many search-and- rescue incidents, School board reform Task force now doing homework: The Chateauugay Valley steering committee for the special Task Force formed recently by the Quebec Association of Protestant School Roards named Chateauguay\u2019s Cathy Cormier as its chairman at a November 25 meeting at Howick Elementary School.Huntingdon's Andrew Fawcett is the local representative to the Task Force which is concerned with implications of future school board changes on the English Protestant school system in Quebec.The local steering committee is composed of representatives of the Chateauguay Valley Regional School Board, teachers, administrators, school committees, parents, and the People\u2019s Association.At the November 25 meeting, the group passed a resolution opposing any imposed changes to the present school board system without just prior consultation.The steering committee is now engaged in examining the issues involved in three possible school board groupings: language boards, unified boards, and confessional boards.\u201cWe are trying to assimilate the reams of information available so that it can be clarified for the public.\u201d said Carole Hay, ESPA representative on the group.\u201cThe committee is most concerned with gaining informed support at the grassroots

recently that there is a strong possibility that the Dupont plant located in Coteau-du- Lac, which has not been a financial success since itn opening 18 months ago, will be closed.The closure would
