OPEN ALL DAY WEDNESDAY. - CLOSED THANKSGIVING MONDAY I. 4 W. WESTENHOF MIN STREET SEAFORTH Three Stephen Township par- ents were representing the mothers and fathers of 34 kinder- garten students at Stephen Cen- tral School Monday evening when they appeared before the Huron County Board of Education meet- ing in Clinton to request trans- portation to and from half-day kindergarten classes for their yregsters. Spokesman for the delegation, Ted Wright, Dashwood, said the Stephen parents would not favor an every-other-day kindergarten system in order to simplify transportation for their children. "We are mammitted to the half-day program," stated Wright, also indicating that Ste- phen. parents were prepared to continue their present system of providing transportation one way to kindergarten classes at the school just west of Crediton if suitable alternate arrangements cannot be made with the board. Wright said it was the opinion of Stephen parents that kinder- garten aged students were not ready for a full day at school and needed the home environment at least part of each day; that students were apt to become un- happy with school if they were pushed, into it too fast; that noted educators believed the half-day system the most superior to all other systems; and that cost is the only factor preventing trans- portation both ways since buses and drivers are available. The delegation stressed the safety factor saying that quite a, number of cars were travelling in and out of the school grounds around noon each day. and that accidents could happen with the board having no control over the drivers of those vehicles. Another member of the group, Donald Gaiser, Dashwood, said parents were using car pools to get the children back and forth to school and wondered about the board's involvement in the event of an accident on the way to classes. Another argument put forth by the delegation was their cry for equality with urban children who can attend kindergarten on the half-day system. ' It was estimated by the board that extra costs would be about $20.70 per day or an additional cost of about $3,400 until the end of June. It was also noted that Stephen Township was sthe only township in Huron where rural children were attending kindergarten classes on a half-day basis all ' Parents Seek Id , For Transport Costs by Minnie Noakes Hensall Council met in the council chambers Monday with all members present. Following the reading of the minutes of the meeting of Sept- ember 1, council heard the monthly report of E. R. Davis, C. E. Reid aid Sons had been ' engaged to assist with drainage problems and to draw gravel to the several location s where it was necessary. Mr. Davis re- ported that he is at present working on a drain in the vicin- ity of Richmond Street S. and hopes 4o have It in• working order shortly. He reported that prior to taking his vacation, he had repaired more sidewalks, had paved crossings that the P.U.C. had left unfinished and had cut grass on more boulevards. Mr. Davis reported to coun- cil that tractor #1 is in poor condition, to which Councillor Baker replied that it had come to the time when the machine is hardly worth repairing, and it could cost a considerable amount to do so. #2 tractor has been leaking oil and council advised Mr. Davis to have it repaired. Mrs. M. Noakes asked council when a catch basin could be repaired in the vicinity of her' home as Mr. Davis had promised to do it at least three years ago. Mr. Davis assured her that--the work would be car- ried out as soon as possible. A copying machine has been in the Clerk's office for the past month on trial. After much 'discussion and on learning its merits, council decided to pur- chase the copying machine at a cost of $350. plus fax. It is hope'd,that other local commit- tees will avail themselves of the use of it. Councillor Knight suggested that he would trust the Clerk's judgment in regards to the machine and that if Mr. Campbell felt it was needed, then it was in order to purchase it. The Clerk 'was 'authorized to levy a fee of 25 per copy when . doing work for any person. Coun- cil was of the opinion that there are many advantages in owning the copying, machine. Councillor Baker reported the Fire Hall is completed to the satisfaction of all. The municip- al dump came up for discussion and the Clerk read a resolution received from Stephen regarding waste disposal. Lengthy discus- sion ensued and it was,concluded that council should send repre- sentatives to a meeting regarding area waste disposal but at the same time should apply for a permit for the present dump and learn the requirements, of the department re dumps. Council felt it may be just as simple to look after the dump as to get into area agreements. The times for open hours at the dump have been altered. The clerk informed council that a gentleman had inquired re • the oil stove and tank taken out of the Fire Hall and council re- quested the clerk to sell it for $25. Councillor Knight having been absent at the time of E. R. Davis' report, asked council if certain properties had been ser- viced in so far as weeds are concerned but was told that the weeds are still there. He was. disappointed as the location is very unsightly. It is in the vicinity of an old smoke stack which in itself is an eye-sore. Council discussed the possibility of the council having the smoke stack removed and were told that it could cost several hundred dollars. In the meantime each member is going to inquire into the possibility of having someone remove it. Reeve Jaques and Councillor Knight had attended a meeting on regional development and neither was satisfied that the small municipalities were being con- sidered for future development. Councillor Knight was dis- couraged and intends writing a letter to the department of ec-'' onomics, M.O.D. A. Mr0 having a copy for the. council also. He is of the opinion that if they are not going to help the smaller Municipalities, the latter will have to stand up and fight for their own rights to be recognized. ... He stated that ,there is a population drain on Hensall but that we also have greatindustries here wed much to build for but the way things are now, we cannot annex land or look for too much help in the future for expansion in 'Hensall. He summed up his remat'ks by stating that if they do not receive reasonable answers, then other small municipalities be contacted for their support. Arising from correspond- ence, council endorsed aresolut- ion from Stephen township council regarding waste disposal and john Baker and Paul Wetlands were appointed as delegates to attend a meeting. The clerk is to attend a meeting of clerks in Stratford on October 23. After lengthy discussion re- garding the old 1926 Fire Engine and on a recommendation of Harold Knight, council decided to donate the engine to the Huron County Museum. Discussion en- sued regarding the old tractor and council agreed the tractor would soon have to be disposed of but hoped that it would last through the winter months. John Baker suggested there. comes a time when it is not worth speeding any more money on it and it has rea- ched that time. The clerk advised council that they could have $200,000. insur- ance coverage for an additional $20.17 so council decided to raise the coverage, for the village, Building permits were ap- proved for Phillip Ward for reno- vations, Harry Klungel for ren- ovations and Thonfas Chuter to build a house.
