Spring’s Debut Foiled by District’s Severest Blizzard School Closed S.S, No. 5, Blanshard Twp., -has been closed for four weeks due to the illness of the teacher, Mrs. Howard Eppillett. No supply could be secured. As we go to press this community is again in the grip of one of the worst storms of the year and some say it is. the worst storm they ever experienced. Certainly in our rec ollection never has so much snow piled up so high on the Main street in so short a time. And what a sudden change. F'riday and Saturday we were en joying springlike weather and. the snow was fast disappearing. Fields were practically bare, rivers and. creeks were running high and flood conditions threatened, Sunday morn ing water commenced flooding the basement at the Exeter school ancl several men worked all day Sunday with -pumps trying to keep the water down. There was no school ■Monday. Many of the cellars in town had water in them. Monday evening a heavy blanket of fog covered the land with visi bility almost nil. While returning . from 'Clinton Sweet’s sale, auction eer Frank Taylor said it was the worst night M. Francis of the road other and it was with difficulty they kept the highway. It began to rain about midnight and heavy showers fell until about three o’clock when it turned colder and snow fell. A blizzard raged all day Tuesday and today (Wednesday) all roads and highways are blocked. The high and public schools are closed. The storm is over and the work of dig ging out the roads will soon com mence. The C.N.R. train went north to Clinton Tuesday morning but is still there. "I have been sixty-five years in the west," said Wm. Walker on Tuesday, like this one.” breath-taking. Business has still. Across the Times-Advocate Central Hotel cars have been bur ied with snow almost to the top of the roof. One motorist in lifting •the hood could see nothing but snow packed In solid. There were some urgent calls for the 'butcher, the grocer and the baker but practically no deliveries have been made. Here’s hoping it is winter’s dy ing struggle. Hu ron Well Represented At Old Boys Euchre Despite a day long ,sleet storm, the Huron Old Boys Association held a highly successful Euchre and Bridge at .the Heliconian Club Friday evening of last week.

B. was watching one side and G. W. Lawson the Exeter, 24th March, 19 47, The Editor, The Exeter Tinxes-Advocate: The annual flooding of the pit be low our -Public School commenced yesterday. Men and equipment were hurriedly gotten together and the work of pumping out the water 'be gan and will continue possibly for a day or two. In the meantime the regular work of the school has been suspended. The staff standing almost idly by, the children missing their daily in structions, their parents disappoint- I ed at the lack of progress the scholars are making. What about the expense of it all? How much do you think it costs to run that school for say three days at a time? Keep in mind that while there are 365 days in a year, the schools do not average more than 195 days in the same period. The staff is paid by the year. Your school buildings stand idle during the holidays. Any bene fits the public get for their expendi tures for school purposes, have to be derived from those 19 5 days of instruction. A rough, but not altogether care less, estimate has convinced me and will likely satisfy anyone who cares to take the trouble to enquire," that the closing down of that one school building with its 13 or 14 teachers for three days will cost us $1,000 and more; $1,000 yearly last 30 years gives us a $30,000. Against the protests of us during the last 3 0 or more years additions to that old school building have 'been made at a cost of roughly speaking $20,000. How much is that building worth today? As a school its outside appearance is not a credit to our village. Inside it Is •badly heated, badly lighted and badly ventilated. It lacks cloak rooms, teachers’ rooms, rest rooms, toilet facilities, etc., etc. Probably 200 individuals of both sexes, rang ing in age from eight to ten years old to say 30 or 40 years of age, are brought into dose contact for five t0 six hours a day, and no pro vision is made for their comfort and health. I do not think I am exaggerating When I say the whole building is a disgrace in a thriving centre such as Exeter. The question however Is, "What are we going to do about it?” The difficulty of getting necessary mat erials at a reasonable -cost and the high wages that have to 'be paid, make the expense of rebuilding at the present time almost,, if quite impossible. That fact, however, does compel us to stand idly by. A community, like an individual, must have -foresight, an ideal, a vision o-f the picture as they would like to see it, a planned future to work for. We have recently acquired some necessary additional land. Plans should foe made for the kind of Public, as well as High School accommodation we need now as well as in the years to come. Funds for that purpose made now. One cannot to -build without some Start with and without as to how the balance of the „is to be financed. Above all there must be a oral knowledge and appreciation of the task that is before us as a con tinuing community. Individuals from time to time drop out but the community as a whole will survive and the community’s wants of the future will be somewhat similai* to the requirements of today. Do not neglect the opportunities of today. Start now.

A. Pethick in -the London Free Press. The doctor’s suite in a local ho tel just about was turned into an office like he used to maintain at Dashwood as patient after patient filed in. Included among -his patients were two cabinet ministers, Hon. W. a. Goodfellow and Hon. George Dou- cett, -the former suffering from the “flu” and the latter complaining of a cold.
