investigated. He said the over-
crowding resulted from the new
contract started September 4.
R,L. Cunningham, traffic
manager for the board, already
alerted to the situation, was
reported to be investigating the
problem at the time of the
meeting.
The board did not accede to
a request from. Mrs, Shirley
Keller, editor of the Gederich
Signal-Star that the press
representatives be permitted to
attend and also report on com-
mittee meetings prior to the
regular meetings, The reason
given was that the members felt
that attendance of the press
could and would affect full
discussion, thus the request
was denied,
If there is a magic age in On-
rio, it has to be 18. At 18, a
mng man or a young woman
stantly becomes an adult
ith all the rights and
•ivileges of an adult.
What sometimes is forgotten
m afraid, is that adulthood
ings its shares of respon-
bilities „.., and it sometimes
veers that, youth is eager to
;cept the privileges of
luithood but is reluctant to
ke on the resulting respon-
bility.

found out .,., would fill a book,
If it hadn't been for a wander*
ful, very mature husband and
his unwavering belief in God
and a Christian marriage, our
union would have been
doomed.
At 18 I was a child compared
to the woman who has emerged
from 20 years of marriage. And
there are days even now when I
wonder whether I'm less sure
of myself now than I was when
I was 18!
By the time I was 20, I had a
baby and a husband who was
in hospital and off work
because of a back ailment, By
the time I was 22 I had another
child and a share in a pile of
debts.
By the time I was 25 I was
tired of this housewife thing, I
was changing, maturing and
developing new insights. I
longed for the workday ex-
periences I'd missed and I wan-
ted to be free of the house - not
necessarily the children and my
husband - but most certainly
the house,
Once more my wonderful
husband charged into the
breach, He urged me to do
whatever would make me
happy and fill my life. He even
offered to help with the kids
and the housework.
I guess what I'm trying to
say is that without my
husband, I might not have
faced up to my responsibilities
as a young housewife and
mother. I might very well have
given up on marriage had it not
been that my husband worked
at our relationship together
and taught me how to work at
it too.
I pity, therefore, the 18-year
olds today who believe they
have all the answers and don't
need the advice and the
guidance of anyone else. They
may not be married or even
considering it, Their problems
may be as different from those
I had as east is from west, but I
know that by the time today's
18-year-olds are 25 and then
35, they are going to have a dif-
ferent outlook and a whole new`
set of rules to live by. And I
know they are going to have
regrets which can get all-
consuming unless they learn to

forts to Make things work no

means to take responsibility,

Gorden Notes
With the month of September
comes the beginning of fall gar-
dening chores, says R. F.
Gamine. Mn Gomme, a hor-
ticultural specialist with the
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture
and Food, offers these timely
tips for fall gardeners.
Keep your lawn mower
blades sharp for even and clean
cutting action. Lawn mowers

pened often. This can be done
easily with a household file.
While you're working on your
mower clean out the air filter.
Dirt and pieces of grass caught
inside reduce the mower's ef-
ficiency. During the period of
rapid growth in autumn,
mower blades should be ad-
justed to a lower cutting height.
Plant lilies now. Most
varieties should be planted
about five inches deep, except
madonna lilies, which should
be covered by about two inches
of soil. Most lilies grow best it:
full sunshine, The garden soil
should be well-drained and
aerated. If given a good start in
proper soil conditions, these
bulbs will bloom for many
years.
Night temperatures start to
drop in September. This means
it's time to bring house plants
indoors before frost. If they
have outgrown their containers,
repot into a larger size and fer-
tilize before bringing them in-
doors. 'take cuttings from
geraniums and impatiens to
provide bedding plants next
spring.
Some garden insects, such as
juniper webworms and spruce
gall aphids, can be controlled
with malathion or Sevin, used
according to manufacturer's
directions.
SMILE
A fernier asked a
veterinarian for some free ad-
vice. 'I have a horse that
sometimes walks normal and at
other times has a decided limp.
What shall t do?"
The vet replied, "The next
time he walks normally, sell
him".

Trustee Herbert Turkheim of
Zurich presented a petition to
the Huron County Board of
Education at its meeting in
Clinton Monday afternoon
from 62 students from the
Township of Hay and the
Village of Zurich complaining
that bus No, 4 was unsafe
because of overloading.
The petition stated that
students have to stand in the
aisles of the bus every day
creating overcrowded and un-
safe conditions, There are no
racks for books or lunch pails
which makes it dangerous in
case of a sudden stop.
Mr. Turkheim said that there
are about 70 on the bus with a
seatipg capacity for about half
that number, He reported the
bus picks up the bulk of the
pupils in Zurich first and then
stops at almost every farm on
its 12 mile trip to the South
Huron District High School in
Exeter. "It means these same
rural students are punished
every day by having to stand,"
he said. "I don't think we
should tolerate this situation,"
Mr. Turkheim added.
He said he believed that all
buses are being overloaded in

it very unfair,
The Chairman asked for suggestions and
a few were put forth, one of which was to
advertise and try to hire a manager to look
after the arena, as they felt the days of
volunteer labour were over.
Following the delegations departure,
council resumed their regular meeting and
decided to hire a grade-all to ditch along
both the north and south sides of Cameron
Street. A motion was passed stating that
any paving of driveways connected to
Village Streets will require a permit and a
plan to be submitted to Council,
A by-law ammending the general traffic
by-law to add three yield signs was read
three times and passed.
The next regular meeting will be held
Monday October 1 at 7;30 p.m.
You've finally done it -- pur-

it? Do you raise beef? Horses?

tory course, the beef course will

management for crop produc-
tion, will be introduced at the
