It's our job to Make sure that everything is in good shape and up to date - to make sure that we are ready to meet every demand you may make an us. That's why we continue to be faced with demarids for new lines, more transformer capacity and loads of auxilliary equipment.' Like everything else this equipment and material as well as the labour that makes use of it costs more money. On top of all this is the steady increase in the cost of the power we purchase from the Ontario Hydro Electric Power Commission. For a long time' now we have managed by careful economies to absorb these in- creased costs but this no longer is possible. We must come to you, the, consumer. Rates will still be low but as from August 1, 1970 billings will show a modest increase. Domestic Rate Schedule for Two Months Present-rates now in effect First 100 K.W.H. @ 4.01 per K,W.H.

The 200 students who gradua- ted on May 30th from ConeSioga College of Applied Arts and Tech- nology, were told that today's society is suffering from "Future Shock". S. A. Norton, Superintendent of Educational Services, Applied Arts & Technology Branch, On- tario Department of Education, in his Convocation Address said "No longer does the past flow serenely into the present and fu- ture. The potential of today's future is so jammed with alterna- tives and variables, that. formed developments are media- ting our present. It is a time change phenomenon which gives rise to feelings of lack of tem- poral stability and security." Mr. Norton was introduced by F. C. J. Sills, Seaforth, one of the trus- tees. The 1,000 person audience heard, Mr. Norton explain that the New Learning Spciety per- mits the concepts of change to be individualized, resulting in self initiated learning programs, •so that there is an individual dyna- mic input into social change that inspires both hope and despair. The pursuit of knowledge must be balanced with the pursuit of rele- vancy. The mind must move from the factual to the conceptual, from the concrete to the abstract all analytical. An appreciation is necessary for the wholeness of knowledge. At its Second Convocation, Conestoga College awarded 170 diplomas and 29 certificates, to graduates from 25 programs, which were presented by Bert Klinkhammer, Chairman of, the Board of Governors. Alex Brown, Dean of Faculty, invested each graduate with a Liripipe. The Liripipe is a band of red velvet, trimmed with gold braid and four white tassels which may be worn only by Conestoga gra-: duates. It symbolizes recognition that an individual'has prepared himself sufficiently to fill a par- ticular role in the world's work and possibly improve its nature. R Py. E. Donald - Stuart of Brucefield gave the Invocation and Beeediction. An authentic full-scale rep- lica of the original Conestoga wagons was presented tothe Col- lege by the Wood Product Tech- nicians who built the wagon over the past two years. In its parade from Waterloo to Kitchener, it was drawn by a matched 4 horse team of Belgians. William Donald Kenwell,'pre- sently the principal at Listowel District High School, has been appointed superintendent of op- erations• for the Huron County Board of Education effective September 1, 1970. His. salary will be $21,000 per annum. 11 This appointment is subject to the approval of the Minister of Education. Mr. Kenwell is a married man with three children aged 17, 13 and 12. He has spent ten years in Ontario elementary schools, 14 years in Ontario Secondary schools and -two summers as instructor at Ontario Department • of Education SummerF School in TorOnto on special education. He was a member of the minister of education's com- mittee for the preparation Of curriculum HP 35 "The Diver- sified occupation Program". During the summer of '1969 he was instructor on the Secondary School Principals' Course in London. The 1969 audit for the Huron' •County 'Board of Education com- pleted by the firm of A.M.Har- per, chartered accountant, Goderich, will cost $6,775. • The board learned from Roy B.' Dunlop, superintendent . of business affairs, that the 1961 audit under the former school" boards in the 'county, •cost more than $8,000 in total - perhaps closer to $9,000. The auditor's statement will be released to the' public in the near future. New policy approved Monday evening at the regular board meeting states that no teacher or academic administrator shall continue his or her employment with the Board after the end of the school year in which he or sbe reaches his or her 65th birthday, except by special annual resolution of the Board in which case the teacher shall be placed on a one-year probationary Con- tract. This becomes effective dtiring the 1970-71 school year. Subject to the payment of grant to the Huron County Board of Education by the Ontario De- partment of Education, the board will pay the tuition fees of sec- ondary school students recom- mended by their principals to attend summer school. The board also granted ap- proval for a reorganization of the program at F.E.madill Sec- ondary school with the addition of biology at the Grade' 11 five- year level; German at the Grade 11 five-year level; geography at the Grade 11 four-year level; re-introduction of geography at the Grade •13 level; and the ad-, dition of Home Economics at the Grade 13 level. TWo more program changes at thelWingham School have been referred, to the AVC recommend- ation. A request from the Wingham Recreation and Community Centre Board requetting the use of facilities at the Wingham Dis- trict High School during the sum- mer months touched off a minor argument among board members. One faction believed that so No Action On Park Bid A suggestion Friday from Harold Lobb, Clinton, that Huron County Council should write to the provincial. government ex- pressing council's approval_ of the government's move to create a conservation reserve in Hul- lett Township, fell on deaf ears. No action was taken on the matter. Reeve Loff noted that the re- serve teas a welcome addition' in the county, arid said that the Ontario government should knew that the people of this county are interested ittit.

Everett McIlwain, chairman of the Huron County Board of Health, expressed surprise that members of Huron County Coun- cil did not have more questions for Dr. G. P. A. Evans, Huron County Medical Officer of Health, when he appeared Friday morn- ing at the regular session of council to comment on the annual report "The Health of the County of Huron 1969". However, Reeve James Hay- ter,,, Stephen Township, invited Dr. Evans to speak tb two groups of Grade 8 students from Wing- ham and Zurich, concerning the hazards of smoking and the mis- use of drugs. Dr. Evans welComed the op- portunity anciwtold the yotingster that smoking was a "highly un- desirable practice". "The best way to stop is never to start," stated Dr.Evans. "People who smoke run fantas- tically high risks of lung cancer' and other lung ailments." "Every year people die un- necessarily,", added Dr.Evans. The doctor also traced some of the reasons why young people long as the Wingham group sup- plied their own "perishable" equipment, confined themselves to certain areas of the school and didn't interfere with the' summer cleaning at the school, there was no objection to the School being used for summer recreation in the community. Another group, led by vice- chairman Robert Elliott felt that - definite policy should be formul- ated by the board regarding the matter before the Wingham group was given permission to use the school facilities. "This is a one shot deal," remarked Jim Taylor, liensall. don't think so," retorted Elliott. "This could have a far-reaching effect, right across the county."' Indications are ' that The Goderich Recreation and Com- munity Centre Board will be re- questing a similar favor from the Huron County Board of Educ- ation. Elliott's proposal gained the support of the board members. Policy will be determined before a' decision is reached in regard to the Wingham request.
