Of the more than 750 known inactive and abandoned quarries examined by the author and his associates, 147 are described in detail in this report. These quarries were selected because of their geological and historical significance. This report and the report on the Limestone Industry of Ontario thus provides a complete inventory of the quarries in the Paleozoic carbonate strata of Ontario.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

COver 2,800 donors gave almost $360,000 to the Foundation’s Christmas Angel Campaign for seven new automated medication cabinets needed throughout the Medicine, Surgery and Psychiatry Nursing Units at the Hospital. “My sincere thanks to everyone who supported the campaign,” said Torben Hawksbridge, Foundation Chair. “Donations are critical to having the best possible care available here.” Medications play a key role in the treatment and recovery of many patients. Every day the Hospital’s Pharmacy prepares over 1,000 medication orders. Ensuring each patient gets the right drug, at the right time, in the right dose, is a complex task involving doctors, pharmacy staff and nurses. “The new automated cabinets store up to 300 different medications and are integrated into Grey Bruce Health Services’ inside electronic patient records and Pharmacy Information System,” Registered Nurses Casey McMillan, left, and Megan Lawes working How you helped your said Dr. Brendan Mulroy, former Chief of Staff.
