Request co-operation
for census takers
Census takers for Huron South
are expected to complete their
rounds in the urban areas by June
15 and in the rural areas by June
22, Census Commissioner Harry
Strang told the TA.
Huron South Includes the town-
ships of Hay, Stephen and Us-
borne, the town of Exeter and the
villages of Hensall and Zurich.
A total of 21 enumerators, five
men and 16 women, started their
work on June 1.
This year's census is called a
five-year census. The 1 9 6 6 cen-
sus is less complicated than the
statutory 10-year census taken
in 1961, Householders will be
called upon but a major portion
of the census is being done
through mailed questionnaires.
Mr. Strang reports that good
progress is being made in the ru-
ral areas because farmers re-
ceived theirquestionnaires in ad-
vance and were requested to have
them ready when the census taker
called. Then the census taker
phones the farmer in advance and
tells him exactly when he will call
to pick up the sheet.
The population census is con-
cerned only with basic matters
and has five questions to be
answered. These are: name, re-
lationship to head of household;
sex; age; marital status. The
householder is also asked if the
dwelling is owned or rented.
Similarly, the agriculture cen-

A blood donor clinic is to be
held at the Royal Canadian Legion
Hall, Exeter, on Monday, June
13, between 5 and 9 pm.
Due to the urgent need of blood,
all Exeter area residents are
urged to make every effort to
attend this clinic. With the season
for an increased number of car
accidents just around the corner,
often involving accidents where
blood transfusions are urgently
needed, everyone is reminded of
the necessity for keeping the
Red Cross blood banks well sup-

sus has fewer questions for far-
mers. Since most farmers tend to
specialize now, they will have on-
lY a limited number of questions
to answer.
Although a merchandising
census will not actually take place
until the end of this year, the cen-
sus takers will help in this at
this time. All businesses in the
area will be listed. To the busi-
nesses which are listed, the Do-
minion Bureau of Statistics will
mail out a census questionnaire
after the end of the year, which
also will be simpler than pre-
vious questionnaires.
Between the ten-year cen-
suses, estimates are made by the
Dominion Bureau of Statistics
but these estimates are not per-
fect and thus a smaller census is
needed to adjust the figures.
All persons are required by law
to give the information requested
by the census takers, but all such
information given is confidential
and census takers must take oaths
of secrecy on hiring. If anyone
should doubt the census taker's
identity, he should not hesitate
to see the official credentials
which the census taker carries.
There are four districts in
Huron and this district is known
as 525-I.

Merchandising wor 1 d, from
store clerks to managers and
owners of business, have to follow
the demands of the buying public
if they want to show profit.
0. Ken Shaw, who took over
Exeter's Canadian Tire business
this week said he had to learn it
the hard way in North Sydney,
Nova Scotia, where he was in
charge of a similar business.
His apartment was above the
store. When the store was closed,
customers came to the apartment
and expected to be served.
It was Mrs. Shaw who suggested
that, under the circumstances,
the store might as well stay open
on some of the days that are
usually considered business-
men's half-holidays.
He learned that he had been
missing out on a considerable
amount of business. Other stores
in the town, watching the “ex-
periment", eventually came to
the same conclusion.
Surveying his new home town,
Mr. Shaw feels confident of its
future. He is not unduly perturbed
by the closing of the Centralia
base, probably because he had
already gone through a similar
experience in North S y d n e y,
where a naval base was closed
under the same conditions.
But then, North Sydney may
have been luckier. As a compen-
sation, the Government replaced
it with a coast guard school.
While coming quite a distance
to his opportunity here, Mr. Shaw
is not a stranger to this part of
Ontario. In fact he is practically
a local boy, having been raised
and educated in Wiarton.
He is married and has two
children. His family is still liv-

Car accidents
Damage to the amount of $400
was caused about 4 pm Sunday
on Concession 22, about 2.3 miles

other one. The Exeter detachment

Percy Donkervoort, 23, of Lon-
don, was travelling south and
about to turn off the road into
