Forsyth said this rate was "very reasonable" in comparis- on to other communities who have entered OWRC agreements in the past two years. He said rates generally run from $100 to $140 per annum for water supply. Mr. McRae asked lithe propos- ed rate would be reduced if more than the expected 474 customers hooked up. Forsyth replied that this would be the case and further explained that "conservative figures" had been used in estimating the num- ber of customers that would prob- ably hook up. "We generally find that more and more hook on and the rate is ultimately reduced," he stated. Forsyth was asked if the OWRC had taken into consideration the fact that many property owners lived at the resort only in the summer and would not use as much water per year as estim- ated. He replied that the estimates for customers had been prepared by council and he didn't know whether this fact had been con- sidered or not. The projects engineer did not know whether the rate for water from the OWRC had been set on any guaranteed consumption fig- ures. Reeve Ory Wassmann was ask- ed if council had considered a sewage system and replied they had not. ?moo .7olie4 Mrs. J. G. Dunlop and Mrs. M. C.

A. J. Forsyth, OWRC projects engineer, said the cost for prop- erty assessed at $2,000 and hay.- ing 60-foot frontage would be $40.44 per annum. This is based on $19.80 frontage, $8.90 for a connection, $7.96 for fire pro- tection which will be placed on the general levy, and a consumer rate of $3.78. This amount will be charged whether the property owner hooks UP to the system or not. For those using water, there The minister of education was. Introduced by nee, O.

In summing up the changes, Wilkinson said, (FI am most happy to see this happen, it will be a real help to the people of my inspectorate who have made out- standing efforts to improve edu- cational facilities.” The new grants are also ex- pected to benefit secondary schools and could result in a substantial saving for area resid- ents on the building of the SHDHS addition. school population should have provision for specialized edu- cation of some kind if they are to be treated as individuals. Mr. Davis went on, "The eco- nomic and social growth of our country will be reflected by what investment we make in education and this is at the root of whatever we achieve, The cost of educa- tion represents 45% of the total budget of our province, the larg- est single commitment by gov- ernment. These sums are the investment in our young people and in the future of our adult population. A. large number of Stephen township residents attended the opening ceremonies for the school which has been in opera- tion since September. Chairman of the board Ross L. Brown received the keys from Howard Falls of the architect firm of Riddle, Connor, Falls and Irvine of London. NEW PHILOSOPHY In officially opening the new $410,000 Stephen structure, Da- vis touched on the many changes in educational philosophy in re- cent years. He said, ',that the revised course of study adopted five or six years ago is not only for the elite group of students but for every child. We can't be satis- fied with failures." The minister stated his de- partment has one interest only and that is education for each and every youngster regardless of their capabilities. He also dwelt on the import- ance of specialized classes. 'From six to 10% of the public Students hail III Health?

He was born in Petrone, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Ward. He graduated from the National School of Chiropractors in Chicago in 1915. He practised first in London, then in Exeter from 1921 to 1961 before moving to St. Marys where he practised until his death. Mr. Ward was a member of St. Paul's Anglican Church, Kirkton.

The tenders were opened at a special meeting of council Mon- day afternoon, before Reeve Boyle and Deputy-Reeve Cud- more left for the annual Mayors and Reeves convention in Niagara Falls. Towland's price was $5,394 for paving a section of John St. from Main to Andrew, and a stretch on Gidley St. from Main St. to the extension of Gidley south of the high school. Council postponed their regu- lar meeting this week in view of the convention. It will be held Tuesday. sights are really too remarkable for words. To try and tell someone who has never been to Expo what it is like is hard because the things one sees there are not every day occurrences and are truly spec- tacular. The pavilions of some count- ries such as Jamaica, Haiti and Monaco capture the atmosphere of their countries. MISS L. SIEGNER Expo is the greatest. To me Expo might be considered a mini tour of the world visited by a mini-rail. The national pavilions each have their own typical sights and sounds and all deserve a visit but some rate closer at- tention because they offer the spectacular or the less familiar sights. Out of 60 countries, seize the opportunity to visit the Russian pavilion. This allows a person to view the lunar plantation of both Mars and Venus. What an un- forgettable, eerie feeling lingers with you! The Czechoslovakian pavilion is another ''must" on your tour. Hearty response extended ministers Purchase Your Waltham At W ILSON'S JEW ELLERY & Gifts He said adults often downgrade the contributions of C a na dians and he urged the students to recognize the accomplishments of those in all walks of life in this country and the world at large. "Centennial year gives youth an opportunity to dedicate them- selves to think optimistically so they can be developers of the next 100 years of history," he explained. ,‘Your community and prov- ince needs you," he concluded, "and we need you in an edu- cated sense," The next stop for the three men was the Exeter Public School, where they were greeted by the glee club singing "Canada" and other centennial songs, under the direction of Lawrence Wein. At the end of his brief remarks to the students, Mr. Davis asked the students to sing the song again. He urged the young people to pay attention to the advice given them by their teachers and told them to pay their elders proper respect. In all his visits, he was ex- tremely complimentary towards the teaching staff. He said he knew of no job that was more difficult or more important than teaching. Exeter Pleasing You Pleases Us If two Ontario cabinet minist- ers had their way, they probably I would have called an election last Thursday and immediately ex- tended the right to vote to those six years old and over. The Hon. William Davis and the Hon. C. S. MacNaughton received enthusiastic welcomes at all area schools they visited in their tour, and could have ended up with land- slide victories over any opposi- tion. While the youngsters obviously enjoyed the thrill of seeing two dignitaries in their midst, the enthusiasm snowballed by the fact the minister of education an- nouced that the grant system probably wouldn't be affected if the students wandered home from classes a half hour earlier that day. His thinly-cloaked suggestion for the early dismissal was greeted with deafening applause at the schools. The tour started at SHDHS, where Mr. Davis was introduced by Mr. MacNaughton, who was accompanied by his executive assistant, Don Southcott. The education minister told the students that centennial year was an appropriate time for them to recognize "that we have a past of which we can be extremely proud".

BRENDA NOAKES— 11C The complexity and immense- ness of Expo cannot be fully im- agined by anyone who has not seen it. The majority of pavilions were fantastic in their structure and content but the one which stands out foremost in my mind is that of France. It is an immense structure towering well over 100 feet in Me air, but the delicacy of the architecture makes it ap- pear light and graceful. From the top of the pavilion the view is utterly fantastic and one can look straight down from the top floor to the very bottom where hundreds of fountains give forth a continual flow of water. DAVE STARK — 11C Describing Expo is no easy job. This is so because of many reasons. One being that it is so huge and another being that the Accidents — Continued from front page p.m., Saturday. The incident took place one mile north of Highway 83. The lad's father, Eugene W. Erickson, had been pulling a boat on a trailer behind his truck when the trailer sustained a flat tire. He was unable to pull off the road due to the heavy load and a passenger in the truck, George Whittle, also of Hayfield, was at- tempting t o control traffic ap- proaching the stopped vehicles. One of the oncoming cars was driven by Norman D. McDonald, RR 2 Lucknow, who started to proceed past the vehicles at the instruction of Whittle, but at the same time the youngster ran out from the ditch into the path of the McDonald vehicle. Only minor damage was re- ported in a two-car eras'''. on Highway 21 on Sunday at 12:45 a.m. Drivers of the cars were Janet Ileen McEwan, Both- well, and Edith A. Hillis, Point Edward. The McEwan car had been stopped on the highway just north of St. Joseph's as the car in front was making a left turn. The car driven by the Point Edward lady did not get stopped in time and as she attempted to pull off the shoulder of the road, struck the rear of the McEwan car. OPP Constable John Wright listed damage at only $40. During the week the OPP investigated 17 occurrences and issued 40 warnings under the Highway Traffic Act. Ten drivers were charged and one person was charged under the Liquor Control Act, The local officers spent 48 hours on patrol and covered a distance of 2,280 miles. Expo The pavilion boasting three out- standing restaurants stages ex- hibitions of jewels, precious and semi-precious stones, hand made lace and Bohemian crystal. Up- stairs one can sit for one-half hour viewing abstract segmented pictures where one picture is superimposed on another. What startling effects! Lastly, the British pavilion where a tower soars 200 feet into the sky. Tomorrow I would return to view and review the sights of Expo if the opportunity availed. Don't miss the world's greatest fair. HERBERT HEYWOOD — 11E From the USSR pavilion I got the idea that all the people were the same as the people of Canada. Many of the smaller pavilions had very little to offer and were more like a museum. The pav- ilions really worth seeing are Canada's, Ontario's, Great Brit- ain's and India's. FRED BRINTNELL — 11E The amusement island is call- ed La Ronde. There are many rides and "clip joints" there for which their entire purpose is taking your money. MARG MERNER — 11C There was a great variety of sights to see, such as the many modern trends of living in Hab- itat to the space age in the USSR and the amusement park on La Ronde. There were many people there that differed in race and re- ligion also. Although I saw only a few of the many pavilions, it was a once in a lifetime op- portunity and I wish I could see it again. LYNDA LITT The films at Expo served not only as a shelter but I really did enjoy them. Most were multi- screened which seemed to put me right in the show. Some of the more tremendous movies were in the Ontario, Bell Telephone and Canadian Pacific pavilions. Art galleries something I am not in contact with too often — caught my eye. Rembrandt and Picasso had their work on dis- play and many famous artifacts that you often hear about but rarely see were way beyond my imagination. There was even a picture of Mr. Shaw's uncle there. PENNY PLANTINGA— 11C All in all, Expo was a very large place and was very excit- ing and interesting. The people at Expo were very friendly with the exception of a few pickpockets and waiter s, which everyone should be warned of before going to Expo. of their young daughter Julie Yvonne who was baptized Sunday morning.
