Usborne acclamation
Elect three new men,
report on central PS
Usborne township has a new
reeve, two new councillors and
a new school area trustee for
1962.
They were chosen without op-
position Monday afternoon as
the township elected its officials
for the tenth consecutive year
without going to the polls. Us -
borne hasn't had a contest since
1951.
Councillor George Frayne will
step into the top post vacated
by Reeve Clayton Smith, re-
tiring after 10 years on coun-
cil,
His council will include two
incumbents, Ward Hern and
Archie Etherington, and two
newcomers, Delmer Skinner and
Roylance Westcott.
Mr. Skinner resigned from the
township schoolarea board aft-
er serving as trustee for eight
years. Mr. Westcott is the ne-
phew of a former Usborne
reeve, George Westcott..
School area board chairman,
Harry Dougall, was returned to
office and a new trustee, Elson
Lynn, RR 1 Woodham, succeeds
Mr. Skinner on the board.
School not an issue
Although the proposed central
school for the township was the
main topic at the nomination, it
was not an issue and it created
little debate,
Chairman Dougall reported
the board did not plan any fur-
ther step until it learned what
action SS No. 2 would take at
its annual meeting. SS No. 2—
Thaines Road—is the only sec-
tion not in the township area
but it is considering joining in
order to participate in the cen-
tral school program.

ization project, we should have

Dougall reported. "The board
has agreed to wait until after
No. 2 has had its annual meet-
ing. If we were to go ahead
without No. 2 there would be
less chance that the department
would approve it under our par-
ticular arrangement.
"I do believe that we will get
more pressure to develop this
centralized type of education,"
he concluded.
Backs central school
Retiring trustee Delmer Skin-
ner strongly supported central-
ization. "Your trustees have
visited central schools in High-
bury and McGillivray and 1,
for one, am convinced this is
the way our children should be
educated. The trustees at these
new schools are all in favor of
them; they feel they have some-
thing to be proud of."
He pointed out that one of
the principal advantages of a
central school is the attraction
of better teachers. }Ie reported
the board has hadconsiderable
difficulty in recent years secur-
ing staff for its one -room
schools.
"We in Usborne are paying a
share toward the construction
of other central schools around
us. The only way we can re-
ceive our share is to build one
ourselves."
No increase in taxes
He said the central school
could be erected and operated
at the same rate which the
township is paying now. The
province was prepared to pay
52% of the cost of the school
and the savings in operation
would include the .hiring of two
less teachers on the staff.
Mr. Skinner said he favored
an immediate vote of the peo-
ple on the project but the board
had learned that it must secure
a site, prepare plans and pre-
sent estimates to the ratepay-
ers before a referendum could
be conducted.
The board could not proceed
until it learned whether or not
it had the support of the
Thames Road section which is
in the middle of the township.
"We feel we'd like to have
Thames Road with us," he
said.
Sees another benefit
Board Secretary Garnet
Hicks introduced another ad-
vantage of the central school
when he reported on the estab-
lishment of the Huron County
composite vocational school 'at
Clinton. "I'm not saying cen-
tral school is the answer," he
stated, "but I feel certain that
a central school could work
more effectively with the new
program than the one -room
school will be able to. I can
see where the graded schools
will be able to . take better ad-
vantage of the opportunities of-

can non-drinkers
enjoy lower auto
insurance rates?
UTO insurance rates can be lower
for non-drinkers because:
"Though the public is unaware of it,
the `had•been-drinking' driver is involved
in more than half of all G.S. traffic
deaths today . . Grim confirmation comes
from autopsies promptly performed on
drivers killed in accidents."
From National Safety Bulletin..::
Insurance companies must pay for
these accidents involving drinking
drivers from the premiums of all
motorists.
There was nothing the non -drinking
motorist in Ontario could do about these
high premiums until four years ago
when the Abstainers' Insurance Com-
pany was formed to insure non -drinking
motorists in the province.
Thousands of motorists quickly took
advantage of the low rates offered by
this newly formed company. Their eon-
fidence was quickly justified. On Feb-
ruary 26th the Toronto Globe & Mail
reported:
"A company launched four years ago
to focus attention on drivers who drink by
providing automobile insurance at low
cost to those who don't, declared its first
dividend here Saturday.
"Abstainers' Insurance Company,
whose rates for automobile insurance run
from 10 to 15 per cent below the average
tariff and noti•tari; ff groups of companies
in Ontario, will pay dividends on its
preferred shares.
"The company reports it has an,
accident loss ratio of 51 per cent of pre.
mums collected, about 9 per cent below
that of the industry. With about five
thousand policyholders on its books, the
companyhas moved to reduce insurance
rates for drivers under 25 years of age.
"Mr Mills said that the company has
had urgent requests from. British Columbia
and Manitoba to operate in thcseprovinces,
but does not wish to expand out of Ontario
at present."
e e e
Adequate capital and oxtensive'reinsur
ance agreements enable the company
to meet any obligation promptly.
