GRACE BATES During recent weeks there has been a growing controversy in my area, about school buses and school bus drivers. For a good many years now, school buses have been a bone of con- tention for me, for when my children were younger and we lived in a rural community they rode to and from school each day on one of the big yellow monsters of the highway. Now that my children no longer depend on school buses to get them back and forth to school, school buses still present a problem to me for they are on the highway many times when I want to travel ,... and they present a real safety hazard not only for the children who are riding in them, but for the drivers who must share the road with them. Let me first off say that school buses appear to be a necessary evil in these modern days in which we live. Con- solidated schools mean children have much longer distances to travel to classes and they have no alternative but to ride to and fro in some motorized conveyance or • another. But it must soon be recognized that school buses stopping' and starting on heavily-travelled provincial highways are not only a nuisance but the makings of many accidents - major and minor • which leave motorists disgruntled and disgusted every school day from about 7:30 to 9 a.m. and 3:30 to 5 p.m. There is a common assump- tion among rural people that because their children must travel to school by bus, it just naturally follows that they must be picked up at their homes. That's why school buses seem to stop at every gateway no matter how close those laneways are and why some buses are even expected to make dangerous turnarounds on busy roads just to give at- the-gate service to some able bodied student who could easily have walked the quarter- mile to a safer stopping point. School boards all over the province have endeavoured to provide this tremendous at-the- gate service for every child and many school board mem- 0 bers have taken severe tongue lashings from irate parents who want to know why their children must walk 200 feet while the neighbor's kids are picked up right at the gateway. The argument most normally expressed by these taxpayers is that it is simply not safe for their children to walk on a busy highway at a busy hour. In towns and cities all over this province, however, children from kindergarten through Grade 13 brave the elements and the traffic to walk to and from, school, Many of them walk a mile or more, Many of them must Cr 08$ dangerous roads and intersecs tions. Some must trudge along heavily travelled streets without the benefit of sidewalks. Theirs is a daily problem and they learn to cope because there is simply no other way to get to school. There should be some real consideration given by school boards across the province to the possibility of limiting the number of stops any school bus makes on a busy highway. Secondary roads may be treated in a different manner, but on main thoroughfares, some special legislation must be enacted to protect the motorist as well as the school children, Perhaps there could be specified stops along the route - no more than one every mile - with signs clearly indicating to the motorists that this is a pick- up and drop-off area for school children, Maybe these school bus stops could have a bench for waiting and a portable shelter for winter months. Maybe footpaths could' be con- structed at the side of the road- ways to accommodate not only pedestrian traffic but bicycles as well. Or maybe the best answer is to build sideroads along main highways for school bus travel in the morning and evening hours during the school year .... and slow moving vehicle traffic as well as bicycles in the off hours and during the summer months, All I'm saying is that school buses are here to stay and there must be some provision made in the future to ensure that as roads become more jammed with traffic, the school buses will create less and less problems. That would be costly, you moan. Of course it would be, Who ever said that safety came cheap? For that matter, who ever said that we should put a price limit on that which would make highway travel pleasant and almost hazard-free? Mr., and Mrs. Aart Marinus de Vos are residing at RR 1, Bluevale, following their marriage in the Clinton Christian Reformed Church on Friday, October 5, The double- ring ceremony was performed by Rev. Alvin Beukema, amid a setting of green, gold and brown daisies and lighted golden tapers in white can- delabra.

The neckline and cuffs were trim- med with' lace as was the em- pire waistline. Lace also trim- med the attached cathedral train and a long silk illusion veil which was attached to a lace-trimmed Juliet cap. She carried a bouquet of orange Sweetheart roses with white, yellow and orange daisies cascading to the floor.

They were dressed alike in floor-length dresses featuring gold crepe skirts and bodices of gold chif- fon patterned with brown, green and yellow flowers. Gold velvet ribbon trimmed the em- pire waistlines and the sleeves of the gowns. They carried nosegays of white, green, yellow and orange daisies with gold and yellow streamers. Mac Galbraith of Wingham was groomsman and guests were ushered by John Phillips of Windsor and Jack Ross of RR 1, Wingham. and Pat Tyndall, sister-in-law of the bride. All were gowned alike in dresses of polyester swiss dot with empire waists and long full sleeves. Each girl's dress was of a different shade. The flowergirl was Laurie Glanville cousin of the bride and she was wearing a short- length dress with a white swiss dot bodice and a pink nylon skirt, Ron Crich of RR 1, Lon- desboro was the groomsman and Rick Tyndall, brother of the bride and Lloyd Reese, brother-in-law of the groom were ushers and Dean Glan- ville was the ring bearer. Following the wedding, a reception was held at the Pineridge Chalet in Hensel! where the bride's mother greeted guests wearing a long rose chiffon gown, while the grrom's mother wore a long „blue sheer gown.
