James Pinder and John Kerwin will each receive $7,500 per annum with Richard 'Dodds earning $6,500. The board of health sought approval to engage a non-public health inspecator to carry out plumbing inspector to carry out necessary inspections of septic tank and tile bed installations, provided the latter two items were under the supervision of a public health inspector, or to hire another public health inspector in 1970. Following such discussion, council gave approval to hire another public health inspector because it 'was felt that this person could carry out plumbing inspections in addition to other regular work. When asked what the public health inspectors actually do to keep themselves so busy, Wilmer Cuthill and Roy B. Cousins told council these inspectors carry out regular inspections on dairy farms, in eating establishments, food processing plants, etc. MPP SPEAKES Murray Gaunt, MPP for Huron-Bruce, visited county council Friday afternoon and fielded some rather sticky questions from councillors. Through it all, Mr. Gaunt maintained he was expressing "strictly personal views" and was not toeing any party line. He told council the official plan for the county is a "good idea." He also eased council's mind with the news that, in his opinion, regional government is at least eight I o 10 years away in this part of the province. "County school boards have given. -the • government' 'second thoughts," he said. He did predict that when regional government does come the swing ' will be to regional school boards. He voiced some concern over the "continued pressure towards centralization." He said farms and businesses were getting "bigger and fewer" and governments are getting "bigger and bigger." "When the little man gets the feeling that all he has to do is foot the bill, then think we are in real trouble," said Mr. Gaunt. Wilmer Hardy, Colborne, asked Mr. Gaunt whether or not the county should be interested in a county welfare system. Mr. Gaunt told council the system would likely prove more expensive and members of council would have to decide whether the improved quality of service would justify the extra tax dollars.

MORE RAISES The salaries of Huron County Health Unit employees came under county council's scrutiny Friday afternoon and there was some discussion concerning the raises proposed by the board of health. The medical officer of health, Dr. G. P. A. Evans, will receive a $3,000 per annum hike bringing his salary to $23,000. Some councillors took exception to this and asked why Dr. Evans rated such a large increase all at once while some of the lower salaried staff were taking a ieunh Smaller raise. "It seems to me that's making the. rich richer and poor poorer k" said Reeve Allan Campbell, 'Chairman of the be: Wilmer Cuthill, Seaforth, told council the board had reached this agreement with Dr. Evans after serious discussions. The doctor maintained, said Cuthill, that his colleagues in this area -are making between $30,000 and $50,000 annually in private practices. It was also pointed out that certain employees of the Huron County Board of Education with no more qualifications than Dr. Evans are earning considerably more than $23,000 per year. Public health doctors are not easily found either, it was explained, and the county was interested in keeping Dr. Evans on staff for some time to come.

Alexander, reeve of Wiegham, told members of 1-41r011 County Council Friday afternoon that he was not favor of paying the county librarian, Carolyn• Croke, to the end of 1969 since she is pow employed elsewhere. Miss Croke, who left the county job earlier in. November after submitting a doctor's certificate that she must resign because of her health, is now working at a library in London. When the board agreed to pay her salary until the end of 1969 there was no indication that she had another job. The chairman of the library committee, Derry Boyle of Exeter, told council it• was the county policy to pay an employee until the end of the year is that employee left because of health reasons. He said Miss Croke's present employment had "much less stress and strain" attached to it. Warden( James Hayter said Miss Croke had 24 days sick leave coming to her. ' "She had a doctor's certificate," he said, "Who are we to argue with that?" Turnberry Reeve A. D. Smith felt the library committee had been "led down the garden path." He asked that the executive committee review this policy regarding retirement because of illness. Miss Betty MacKenzie, Goderich branch supervisor, will take charge of library operations until a qualified successor can be found for Miss Croke. Total proposed budget for salaries for 1970 for library branch supervisors and office personnel, excluding the county librarian, will be approximately $55,000. It was also indicated that the• shorter library hours in some locations throughout the county will be extended during 1970. PAY INCREASES Clerk-treasurer and administrator John D. Berry and deputy-clerk treasurer . Bill Hanley received raises 'at last Friday's sitting of Huron County Council. However, this raise, keeping with a new policy of county council, will be foWa two-year period. Berry received an increase of $1,500 effective Jan. 1; 1970, making his salary $15,000 annually. Hanley's raise was $1,800 per annum bringing his salary to $10,500. Construction safety inspector Everett Smith received an increase in salary to $5,700 per year. Smith presented a brief report at the meeting. "Look well before you leap," was his advice, In the matter of eSsessMellt, the MPP told council that all assessment will eventually he done pn the basis of current market value—what a willing buyer would givp to a willing Pellet., He predicted a substantial shift of tax load to private homes and farms because it will be easier to put a real value on private holdings than op business. "Homes and farms are sold every day," he noted, "I think there are going to he some real problems. The government has said that in five years you can have the assessing back. I suggest to you that in five years you won't want it back." WARDEN'S JOB Only one man has announced his intentions to run for the wardenship of Huron County in 1970. That man is Roy Westcott, reeve of Usborne Township and 1969 chairman of the property committee. Two BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER Several standing policies were set Monday evening by the Huron County Board of Education meeting in Clinton. The first of these gives the principals of the individual schools the authority to make the decision whether or not buses will run when the weather is questionable. The board noted it would be impossible to make decisions centrally regarding the cancellation or early departure from school of all board-owned and contracted buses during inclement weather. Board member John Broadfoot asked how the principal living 25 miles away from the school could make a decision about weather. He was told the policy statement provided for such principals to delegate authority on this matter to someone residing closer to the school.... 4, School principals were also left in charge of suspension and expulsion of any students who have disregarded all other means of reasonable disciplinary action. When such matters are brought before the board, they shall be dealt with in committee. The board also gave approval for the use of privately-owned automobiles to transport small groups of students on authorized school business, and agreed to compensate owners for the extra expense involved in providing adequate insurance coverage. A request from the principal of Victoria School in Goderich to allow Goderich teachers to travel to Violet Elementary School in St. Clair Shores. Michigan, on an exchange program was denied. Director of Education John D. Cochrane said, "It is just too other reeves ' Elgin Thompson of Tuckersrnith and A, D. Smith of Tumberry had been mentioned, hut Mr. Thompson indicated earlier in November that he would be out of the running because of a time-consuming position in connection with the fall fairs of this district and Smith will not return to.county council in January. In ,his parting words in Council, Warden James Hayter said Friday afternoon at the final session for 1969 that he had enjoyed his year as top administrator in, the county. He said he still has not decided whether or not he will return in 1970 as reeve of Stephen Township although he has one year to go of a two-year term of office. In view of the fact that many municipalities are switching to two-year terms, the warden added, perhaps council should give some thought to setting up county council committees for two-year terms as well. He suggested also that the warden's term should be for two years. 30 ---- 1969 MODELS Chevrolets, Pontiacs, Fords, Camaros In hardtops and sedans, V8, power steering and brakes OTHER MODELS 3 — 1968 PONTIAC PARISIENNES, 2 — 2 door hardtops and a 4 door hardtop, VII automatic, power steering and brakes 1968 CHEVROLET stationwagon 1967 PONTIAC PARISIENNE, 4 door hardtop, V8, fully equipped 3 — 1967 FORD GALAXIES, 4 door and 2 — 2 door hardtops, fully equipped 2 — 1967 PONTIAC STRATO CHIEF, 6 cylinder, 4 door sedans, power steering and brakes 2 — 1967 CHEV I3EL AIR sedans, V8 automatic 40 used cars from '63 to"'66 in various models, sedans, hardtops and 4 door, mostly fully equipped USED TRUCKS 1967 FORD ECONOLINE heavy duty 1967 CHEVROLET 1 ton stake 1966 CHEVROLET 1 ton stake 1665 MERCURY ECONOLINE 065 6,M.C., 15 ft. stake, With 327 engine, D.P. rear end 1964 CHEVY V8 with S Speed transmission, DP rear axle, 16 foot stake 1963 G.M.C. with 16 ft stake belt, hoist and 327 engine A latiMbet of EConolitie VariS from '63 to '65 esAAAANN:wv§~~,y~ Brussels Motors 10.1 ,Seevrte Station Phone VI "tteosiets.. School board news soon to get into this sort of thing." Board members also agreed to advise Middlesex County Board of Education that Huron students presently attending Middlesex schools will be allowed to complete their education in that school system. The resignations of seven Huron County school teachers were accepted at Monday evening's meeting of the Board of Education and eight new teachers were hired to fill end-of-the-year vacancies. Resigning are Mrs. Marilyn Taylor, Huron Centennial School; • Mrs. Jean Davidson, Seaforth District High School; Mrs. M. Kerr, Victoria Public School, Goderich; Mrs. Sharon Soldan, Stephen Central School; Miss Dorothy Wagner, J. A. D. McCurdy Public School; Mrs. Isobel .Carniss, Wingham PS; and Miss Gayle Lamport, J. A. D. McCurdy School. Forty applications were received and 22 teachers interviewed for eight positions in elementary schools across the county. Those hired were Mrs. Madeline Aggerholme to teach in Clinton; Miss Joan Fisher, Goderich; A. Harrison, Turnberry; B. F. Hooper, J. A. D. McCurdy; Mrs. Barbara Moss, Goderich; Mrs. Shirley Mousseau, Stephen; Allen Schade, Goderich; and Mrs. Car olynne Wood, Huron Centennial. Some discussion was heard on the provision of special education in county schools. To date 272 students in the county have the advantage of opportunity classes, remedial classes, speech classes or occupations classes. About 277 more students could benefit from such training, it was learned. The board gave permission for James Coulter, superintendent, to make a study of the needs and what it would cost to finance it. It has been estimated that eight to 10 extra teachers for special education would have to be hired. Mrs. Marilyn Kunder expressed her interest in the program. She said it was in keeping with the board's intention to provide equal educational opportunities for all children in the county. Policy is forthcoming regarding the board's role concerning moving students from school to school. This has been done on several occasions with the 'mutual consent of the parents and the adininistration Officers of Huron County Board Of Education. John Broadfoot asked that board Members be kept informed of such shifts, UCW meets A potluck dinner for members and guests Was a feature of a monthly Meeting of the afternoon unit of Ontario Street United Church Women at the church Tuesday, Mrs. Anson Coleman, unit leader, presided.
