H.F. BERRY A large crowd attended the anniversary services at Brucefield United Church last Sunday. The choir was assisted The transformation from the original, freezer-locker store is nothing short of miraculous. Like an a la carte menu it is a gift shop which eaters to all tastes -- it is different, distinc- tive and delightful. • * We learned this week that there are descendants of United Empire. Loyalists around town, One is Mrs. Percy (Mary) Brown, Her great, great grand- father, Colonel Samuel Ryerse, 1.1,E.L, was well known in southern Ontario as the foun- der of Port Ryerse on Lake Erie. An interesting change in the spelling of the Ryerse name took place when a brother of the Colonel's became Joseph Ryerson whose son in turn was the well, known Egerton Ryer- son. Mary tells us that the United Empire Loyalists of Canada started a London and Western Ontario branch over one year ago. They are now well " organized with a president, secretary etc. If you area descendant of a' Unite-d Empire Loyalist and interested in the history of Upper Canada just send your name and 'UEL connection to the president, Mr. John A. Haman, 17 Bloom- field Dr., London. Mrs. Brown would be glad to furnish anyone interested -with details of the next meeting. by the McMillian Family of Goderich at the morning ser- vice and by the Huronia Choir of Exeter at the evening ser- vice.

Swan returned home on Saturday af- ter visiting friends' in Toronto and other places. Mr. and Mrs. A. Cribbon of Toronto are visiting Mrs. Sholdice and Mrs, A, Paterson.

HPRCSS Board Chairman. Michael Connolly said the raise was authorized by the board on the recommendation of the Per- sonnel Committee. The em- ployees are not unionized, Mr. Connolly said. The raise brings the school secretaries' salaries up from $2.80 to $3.05 per hour and to $3.30 per hour in February. HPRCSS Business Ad- ministrator Jack Lane reported ''that ae list of snail defOeneies following conStrUctioffat' Holy Name School in St.. Marys and St. Aloysius in Stratford have still not been remedied by the contractors. Mr. Lane said that one contractor told him he was not aware of some of the items on the list. The board has held back $4,000 in the St. Aloysius job and $2,000 at Hay Name until the deficiencies are cleared up. Dublin trustee Joseph Looby said that the architect, Kyles, Kyles and Garrett of Stratford should take care of getting it cleaned up "that's what he's being paid for." On a motion from Mr. Looby, the Board voted to ask Kyles, Kyles and 'Garrett to contact both contractors and give them twenty days notice to correct the deficiencies. Ed. Rowland, HPRCSS maintenance co- ordinator will check both schools after 20 days and the Board itself will repair anything that hasn't been cleane,d up and deduct the cost from the held back portion of the contractors' fees. Mr. Lane reported that notices had been sent to 500 Catholics who were identified on the assessment rolls as being Public School supporters asking them to convert to Separate School support. To date he has received 53 positive' replies, bringing in 1140,000 in additional assessment, amoun- ting 'to about $3,500 in ad- ditional tax dollars. Nov. 1 is the last day for changing the assessment rolls, Trustee Looby commented that a comparative list showing ,the i'asaelSarrient figures for' this year' and last' in each municipality would be useful to each trustee, The figure for this year are available in the budget, he was told. A specialist in correcting speech disorder, Dr. Seppo Tuomi of University Hospital, London, will do diagnostic screening of children in the board's Huron County.

Mr. Vintar is on the organization's board of governors and said the con- ference will cover strategies in negotiations and financial, planning and media effec- tiveness. Stratford trustee David Teahen commented that the conference would cover a great deal of interest to trustees .,."but they are not invited, are they?" Mr. Vintar agreed that trustees weren't invited and said that there will be a similar conference set up for trustees in the future.
