During his brief remarks, Mr. MacNaughton said he agreed with Reeve Boyle's introductory re- mark that the Confederation of Tomorrow Conference could be- come as important to Canada as the 1864 Charlottetown Confer- ence. At the end of his address, the Huron MPP presented Mayor Delbridge with a centenni al plaque in recognition of the man- ner in which centennial year was marked in the community. trehere's no community of comparable size — or larger — that recognized centennial year to any greater extent than Ex.. eter," he said. "No where was it done better than right here at home." Mayor Jack Dell:midge accept- ed the plaque on behalf of the citizens, saying he was "very proud to do so". Entertainment for the evening was provided by local talent, Tom Walker played piano and banjo numbers, Mrs. Russell Lee and Mrs. Ross M ethers sang duets accompanied by Cliff Mc- Donald, Mrs. Robert Haugh play- ed the accordion, Susan Davis rendered several piano solos and Susan and Debi Wooden enter- tained with ballet numbers.

MacNaughton to give a brief report on the recent.Coafedera- tion of Tomorrow conference hosted by the Hon. John Roberts, Mr. MacNaughton said the event Would make history "and ; shall never forget the tone of the meeting." The Huron MPP Said it was very interesting to watch the tone of the meeting as the event progressed. lie said the expres- sion on opening day suggested several premiers were going to assume a "hard-nosed attitude" and he said it was thrilling to watch this attitude soften day by day, "The summation speeches gave evidence to the total recog- nition that Canada has to consider some accommodation fpr Que- bec," he reported. ''The situation is very real. It's not imagipary and it's not much fun," he commented. Mr. MacNaughton said Que- bec Premier Daniel Johnson "Stood 10 feet tall" in his esti- mation, describing him as a Ca- nadian all the way and a man who believes in a united Canada, However, it was pointed out that Mr, Johnson is confronted with pressure from Quebec ex- tremists, and had taken a cour- ageous stand in front of the na- tional news media in his com- ments about his province's role in Canada. The Provincial Treasurer ex- plained it was important that Quebec remained part of Cana.da, adding that "Canada can't get along without Quebec, but Que- bec can't exist without Canada." Noting the discussion that took place regarding the economic differences throughout Canada, Mr. MacNaughton told the audi- ence the people in Ontario were "favored people" in contrast to some in Canada-- particularly those in the Maritime provinces. "This meeting developed the basis of mutual understanding for the need of understanding the problems facing Canada," he said. May change building law At the latest meeting of Ste- phen Township council, members heard a suggestion from building inspector Arnold McCann that the municipality's building bylaw be revised. Linder the existing regulations, ratepayers with acreage of ten acres or more are not required to obtain a building permit when Contemplating construction or renovations, McCann suggested that the by- law could be changed to coincide With most neighboring municipal- ities that supervise all building regardless of the size of the property. A bylaw was passed at last week's meeting increasing the salaries of the entire council. Each member will receive an additional $25 in salary and the same amount for travelling ex- penses. The salary of the reeve will now be $375 with $175 added for car allowance. The deputy-reeve and councillors will now be en- titled to respective salaries of $325 and $300 with identical tra- velling allowances of $125. In other business, council: Approved grants of $25 to the Huron County Plowmen's As- sociation and $75 to the Grand Bend Recreation committee to support the winter minor hockey program.

Learned that approval had been received from DHO for the pur- chase of a new grader and that the machine had already been delivered. Town receives plaque In recognition of the outstanding manner in which centennial year was marked in the community, the Town of Exeter was presented with a plaque by the Ontario government. The Hon. C, S. MacNaughton made the presentation to Mayor Jack Delbridge at last week's centennial dinner. At the right is Reeve Derry Boyle, who was master of ceremonies for the evening.

Mitchell is as follows: The accident reports prove over and over, that failure to observe the traffic rules leads to trouble, and, one of the basic traffic rules for everyone is, "Obey the highway signs and pavement markings". They are there to slow you down for sharp curves, to keep you from passing "blind" and risking a head-on collision, and to warn you of many other po- tential hazards. Never forget, highway signs and pavement markings are for your safe driving guides.
