Noting that the contest be-

more intense, Dr. Lane said'
that the United Church should
be firm in its stand for the
family farm as the ideal and
then do everything possible to
translate the ideal into practical

board's levy of nine
mills last year (an increase.
of two mills over previous le„
vies) came within. $600 of meet-
big the school's expenditures,
.according to year-end finger
cial statement presented to the
board recently,
The December 31 surplus
dropped to $29,049.44, com-
pared to $29,818,90 at the end
of 1961,
This surplus is roughly half
the carryover maintained by
the hoard several years ago,
when its. year-end balance was
around the $60,000 mark. Up
until last year, the board
ped into its surplus funds to
prevent an increase in the levy.
Secretary-treasurer E.D.
Ilowey presented the statement,
noting that it remains to be
verified by, the auditors.
Total expenditures du r tog
1962 came to $367,882 while
revenue amounted to $367,113.-
34.
Teachers salaries and in-
struetional supplies amounted
to well of over one-half of the
total cost--$209,675 or 57%.
Transportation, at $01,400, as-
sumed 17% and debenture debt
charges of $52,315 amounted to
14%. Other expenditures Inclu-
ded plant operation and main-
tenance, $24,132 (6 1/2%); ad-
ministration, $9,314 (2.5%),
The provincial government
contributed slightly over one-
half of the total revenue of
$367,113. The general grants
and the special residential and
farm grants totalled $186,123
or 50.6%.
The nine mills on district
assessment raised a total of
$132,502 or 36%. Tuition fees
from other schools, including
$34,162 from the federal go-
vernment for instruction of stu-
dents from RCAF Centralia,
amounted to $34,838.44 or 9.5%.

siderations, He wrote;
"'Veer, thoroughness, both in
presentation to the oublid.aritin
review of comments received;
is indicative of the importance
placed on this matter, Council
and planning board are to be
commended,
"-"In general, we are in agree-
ment with the points raised in
Mr, A, W, pickard's letter. The
comments should not be Inter-
preted as sustained objection to
any particular aspect of your
zoning bYlaW,"
Alreirt, parking requirements,
which the department recom-
mended should be revised to
require new business to pro-
vide more space that the bylaw
calls for, Mr. Schmidt said:
"We realize that parking in
an older, established con-rier-
cial core is a problem, The
mere setting of standards in a
zoning bylaw is not a solution.
A concerted effort by a mer-
chants' and businesmen's asso-
ciatioa acting in association
with the munielpality to estab-
lish joint parking lots on the
perimeter of the core will,per-
haps., be the ultimate answer,"
(A move is already afoot by
town organizations to undertake
a study of this situation.)
Regarding the changes made
in the industrial zone, where
certain industries classed as
offensive were removed from
the original list, the official
commented, "It would appear
that some of the most obnox-
ious of the offensive trades
have been deleted from the by-
law."
Another comment: "The in-
clusion of apartment buildings
in a general commercial cate-
gory is unusual." This was done
to permit construction of apart-
ments in the store owned by
Mrs. William McKenzie at the
corner of Main and Wellington.
Ile also felt there was no
legal problem over the phrase
"established grade", which had
been questioned by sever al
ratepayers.
Mr. Schmidt said his com-
ments were unofficial ones,

There was also some ques-
tion as to whether the $120
grant to the intermediate ball
club for uniforms would set
a precedent, although all mem-
bers were in favor of helping
the team.
The thought occurred that
other team organizations might
make the same requesta. In
fact, Lloyd Cushman said his
ladies' softball team required
uniforms this year.
Councillor Joe Wooden, who
made the request for a uni-
form grant, pointed out that
the members of the team paid
all other expenses out of their
own pockets and this amounted
to $400 to $500 during the sea-
son.

sing, was attended by Mrs. Mc-
Rae, public health nurse, Clin-
ton; Mrs. Evans, P.1-1N., God-

At the March 6 meeting of
Heron County Board of Health,
Dr. R. M. Aldis, men-
tioned a continuing rise in the
influenza reported in the county
but said the incidence was not
of epidemic proportion at pre-
sent. .
He recommended that would-
be visitors to such institutions
as hospitals, nursing homes and
Huronview stay away if suffer-
ing from a cold or feeling at all
indisposed.
"The best place for anyone
who develops chills, sore
throat, headache or other symp-
toms of 'flu is still in bed,"
Dr. Aldis states. "Aspirin and
fluids are of help in treatment,
but if symptoms do not abate,
consult the family doctor."
Miss G. Vivian Adair, super-
visor of public health nursing,
introduced Miss Shirley Mc-
Leish, post-graduate student
from the University of Western
Ontario. A graduate of Victoria
Hospital, London, following her
public health course at Western
she will serve with the Vic-
torian Order.
Miss Dolbear, the other gra-
duate nurse who is to stay until
March 22, was unable to meet
the board, as she was assisting
at a tuberculin-testing clinic at
Central HuronSecondarySchool
in Clinton. She is a graduate of
St. Joseph's Hospital, London.
Plans have been made for
these students to visit with a
worker of the Children's Aid
Society and Dr. Melady.
Miss Adair reported that in
spite of blocked roads and
closed schools in January, the
staff nurses managed to visit in
the homes of 215 families. Rea-
sons for visiting included 21
new babies, 30 infants from two
weeks to a month old, and 78
children not yet a year old. They
saw 169 pre-school children and
70 school children at home.
With visits to persons suf-
fering mental illness, tuber-
culosis, cancer and acute com-
municable diseases, there was
a total of 684 visits.
Immunization was carried out
in Goderich public schools and
completed In Exeter public
schools. TB testing was done in
Wingham High School, Prenatal

Miss Adair said in her report,
"Mrs. Tudor of Hensall, who
is working two days a week.She
is a graduate of the University
of Alberta Hospital and has had
six years' public health nursing
experience in Victoria, B.C.
The addition of Mrs. Margaret

Little political activity is
shaping up in Huron in con-
nection with the federal elec-
tion.
The Liberals plan a meeting
in Goderich April 2 which will
feature Walter Gordon, MPP
in the last parliament and one
of the party's economic ad-
visers.
The grits also plans a num-
ber of party township meetings
throughout the riding.
The PC's to date have not
announced any public meetings
although it's expected there will
be at least one before the elec-
tion.
There's still no word from the
NDP and Socred parties as to
whether they will field a can-
didate and the possibility seems
more remote than ever.
