W. Haysom your telephone manager Canada's annual Safe-Driving Week is over for an- other year. By stressing defensive driving techniques during this week, the Canadian Highway Safety Council, hoped to make motorists aware of every known safe driving pro- cedure so that they will better remember and practise them for the other 51 weeks of the year. We at Bell Canada — at least all of us who drive our own cars on business or the familiar green vehicles — well know the importance of driving defensively. All of us who do any driving as part of our work at Bell Canada must take and pass a pretty rugged Company course even though we have provincial driving permits. And, in recent years this course has stressed defensive driving. Really, defensive driving is little more than common sense. It means learning how to recog- nize potentially dangerous situations, learning how to avoid them, then putting this knowledge to use. Since 42 percent of the people surveyed in connection with The Canadian Drivers Test television program some time back failed the test, it seems that few people know where danger lurks. With winter setting in with its snowstorms, sleet, ice and sub-zero temperatures, defensive driving becomes more im- portant than ever. Driver Improvement courses have been held in many parts of the country this year and more are planned for the months to come. Driving conditions have changed drastically since many of us received our first permits, and a fresh look at our driving habits could make motoring safer and more enjoyable on our crowded streets and highways. And, it could make for a happier holiday season, when so many people will be travelling to join fam- ilies and friends for Christmas and New Years celebrations. Did you happen to see the item in newspapers not too long ago about the man in California who has collected 20,000 telephone books from all over the world? Actually, what appears to be just an unusual hobby is really a tool of this man's profession. He's a tracer of lost persons, and his library of telephone directories often helps him to track down missing persons for his clients. You can use your telephone book to track down things too. Things like Area Codes, emergency numbers, instructions for making all kinds of phone calls, and in the Yellow Pages, lists of deal- ers, products or services that you may be looking for. ▪ ...t On Christmas day, 35 years ago, telephone lines carried the first radio broadcast of a complete opera — Hansel and Gretel It was transmitted coast-to-coast from the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. * * * BEST WISHES FOR A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS FOLLOWED BY A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

W. Read, chairman of the management committee which presented all the reports, in- dicated that few major changes were made. In the sick leave plan, all full-time employees at the school are credited with 20 days of sick leave at the first of September, These are accumulated until such time as they reach the maximum of 200 days' sick leave, Deductions are made for the time absent because of sickness. The figures are pro-rated for employees who either commence or terminate employment during the year. The sick leave credits estab- lished by employees are used to determine the retirement gra- tuity they receive from the board. This gratuity for teachers on the staff prior to 1963 is based on one half the number of days accumulated, multiplied by their last year's salary and divided Veteran dies in hospital CLANDEBOYE A veteran of World Wars I and II, John Hewitt, 82, died Satur- day in Westminster Hospital, London. He was a native of Eng- land. He had lived in Clandeboye for the past 16 years and previously was a CNR policeman. He was a member of St. James Anglican Church, Clandeboye, and of the Masonic Lodge at Hornepayne. Surviving are his wife, the former Jean Inglis of Scotland, two sons, Stanley of Sarnia, Ro- bert of Erindale, two brothers, Isaac, Simcoe, William of Mary- port, Eng., two sisters, Mrs. Mary Sewell and Miss Hannah, both of Eisington, Eng. and seven grandchildren. Funeral services were con- ducted by Rev. E. 0. Lancaster at the Murdy funeral home, Lu- can, on Tuesday, December 13 with interment in St. James Ang- lican cemetery. CNR police formed a guard of honor at the funeral. Pallbearers were Messrs. Andy Carter, Jim and Wilfred Cunning- ham, Art and Ray Hodgins and Harry Murless. by 200. This works out to half a year's salary for teachers with a full 200 days' sick leave accumulated. Non-teaching members of the staff are only paid a gratuity if they have served for 20 years or more. In the regulations concerning compassionate and special leave, employees are entitled to a leave of absence without pay loss up to a maximum of three days for the purpose of attending the funeral of an immediate member of the family. There is no pay deduction for employees absent because of quarantine, jury duty, or by sub- poena to court as long as they are not the party charged. After three years/ service with the board, an employee may be granted leave of absence without deduction from salary for reas- ons other than those stipulated above if approval from the board's representative is re- ceived. SET RULES For the first time in its history, the board has finally prepared written rules and regulations and an application form for persons wishing to use any of the school facilities. Charges for the auditorium are $50 for an entire day and night, made on the following split: morning charge, $10; afternoon, $15; evening $25. Charges for a classroom work out to $10 for the complete day as follows: morning, $2; after- noon, $3; evening, $5. W. F. B. MacLaren explained that while this fee had been set, special consideration might still be given some groups, such as the badminton club, etc. He also noted the committee had taken no action to set fees for use of the cafeteria. Now that it is operated by Beaver Food Services, the board feel they have little jurisdiction and that anyone wishing to use these fa- cilities would have to contact Beaver Foods. In other business, the board: Learned that a new food freez- er had been purchased from Ex- eter District Co-Op for $225.75, including tax. Were advised the department of national defence would rent them a hangar at CFB Centralia for storing equipment shipped in be- fore space was available for it in the new addition.
