The big project for 1952 is the Mass Chest X-ray to be held this spring or early summer. It is hoped that all persons will avail themselves of the opportunity to have an X-ray of the chest and so make sure that not one case of tuberculosis goes unchecked.

At the present time in CDCI, there are no rooms for health or guidance and although there is room for administration, it is small. Administration plays a large part in a school's welfare, At present there is only one small Office in the school. It is used for a general storeroom, the keep- ing of records, the principal's of- fice, the tecretery'S Office, and the teachers' room. This' office should be composed of four sep- arate rooms, 'Mete should be a principal's office, where he could interview pupils And their par- ents privately. There should be an outer office for the secretary where reports could be Made out, and examinations typed. Badly needed taso is a Storeroom for sehool supplies, paper, and exam- ination books, The guidance room should be a part of this unit, too.

Clinton's Fee $75 The committee which,' had been empowered to interview the Clinton Fire Department report- ed that the Town of Clinton was not anxious to enter into any definite agreement for the use of their equipment in , Township fires, but that they would go wherever needed or called, for a fee of $75. This viewpoint of Clintores was consiciered very fair, as they collected the fee, and reported that only on very rare cases had the person calling they would be obligated to stay and fight that fire• even though they should be called to a fire in the Town of Clinton at the same time, (or rather, called to Clinton minutes after) This set-up would stands at. present, Clinton will answer any call in the .Township, fora fee of $75 BUT they are tailed to Clinton, they will be obliged to leave that fire in the country and answer all•calls from the Town. This co-operation on the part Of Clinton allows the residents of the Township near Clinton,. to get It's "old stuff" for a young 'farmer from the Brucefield area, Robert P, Allan, to hit the agri- cultural headlines hereabouts. One of his more recent achieve- ments was to represent Huron County at the 4-H Congress in Chien°, 111, Therefore, it wasn't surprising that Bob distinguished himself so wholeheartedly at Huron County Crop Improvement Association's fifth annual Seed Fair, held In Clinton District Collegiate Insti- tute Friday and Saturday last. Actually, he• captured five sep- arate championships-ein imyroak, ing, feed grain growing, turnips, corn and oats-with t h e grand championship bushel of grain thrown in. It was an entry of Beaver Oats that came ahead of Harry Strang's wheat topper when the test came for the "grand" title. Capacity Crowds Crowds which taxed the Capac- ity of the CDCI Auditorium and the Gymnasium, attended the Seed Fair, the overflow being especially large Saturday after- noon; when a panel discussion was held with Bob Carbert, CH.NX, Wingham, in charge of the panel. Panes Discussion Topics discussed were: Pasture and forage crops in Ontario, man- agement, new varieties of grass and legumes, chemical spraying in weed control, fertilization of pas- -tines, barn drying of hay, meth- ods of harvesting, grass end corn silage, Chairman for the program was Alvin Betties, BayfieM, president of the association. Greetings were extended by Mayor G. W. Nott, Clinton, and Warden Harvey Johnston, Huron •County. Following the. panel, Auctioneer Edward W. Elliott, Clinton, auc- tioned off the ten-bushel lots. Gold Buttons Presented A feature of the first-day pro- gram of the fair was the presen- tation of gold lapel buttons to the only two-ex-presidents of the Huron.Crop Improvement As- sociation, Harry Strang, Hensall, and Elmer Robertson, R. R. 5, Goderich. • ..ErktriefriDown "While our entries are down a few, from last year, our exhibits are' of, a little higher quality," Russell Bolton, chairman at the Friday evening program of pre- sentations,• 'stated. Entries this year numbered 160, G. W. Mont- gomery, secretary-treasurer of the fair, stated, compered with about 180 at the 1951 fair. Oats vs. Wheat "The real contest at this fair," Prof. R. Keegan observed, "was between the oats and the wheat." The board of judges which de- cided the grand championship, he said, hesitated for a long time between the winning wheat sam- ple and the winning oat sample," . . . although the timothy was given very serious consideration," he added, The top timothy entry was' that of R. N. Alexander, Londesboro. The grand championship finally went to the Allan oats over the Strang wheat, said Prof. Keegan, because of a very slight darken- Mg at the tips of the wheat kernels.
