This will fall short of supplying a tree to the 17 ratepayers who have already requested trees for their properties. However, council learned students at SHDHS may be embarking on a tree planting program as well and some may be available from this source. * * Mayor Jack Delbridge reported that Art Gaiser had consented to act on the planning board.

"It's to the east we have to he concerned about," Reeve Derry Boyle quickly pointed out. * * A letter was received from Al Pickard, thanking council for the engraved desk set he received in recognition of his service to the planning board. He said it had been a "distinct pleasure" in serving the community and paid tribute to the co-operation of all other members. Place embargo on mail parcels Exeter Postmaster Harvey C. Pfaff wishes to inform all residents of Exeter that the Canada Post Office has found it necessary to impose an embargo on all Parcel Post mails for delivery in the City of Montreal. Robert Glazier, 24, of Kitchener, formerly of Clinton, was sentenced to 12 months definite and six months indefinite in reformatory when convicted in provincial judge's court here Thursday on a charge of possession of stolen goods. The court was told Glazier, who had pleaded not guilty, has a lengthy record. Police seized a portable television set at the home of his parents in Clinton Jan. 30. The set was identified as one stolen Jan. 16 from C.G. Farm Supplies store, two miles south of Zurich. Glazier said he purchased it in Bridgeport and sold it to his parents for $25. Similar charges against Wayne Leroy Riley, 20, of RR 1, Londesboro, and David Jervis, 18, of Clinton, will be heard April 16 in Goderich. Charged with five counts of breaking, entering and theft, George Michael Langlois, 23, of Clinton was committed for trial by judge and jury after a preliminary hearing Thursday. Langlois is charged with break-ins at C.G. Farm Supplies, Zurich; Bullock's Variety store, Crediton; W.A. Hamilton garage, Luck now; Ridge Motors, Brussels, and Radford Construction, Blyth, fancy way of saying stronger municipal government. In some parts of the province there is nothing being done at the local level concerning government reform; in other parts of the province, local councils are joining forces to initiate some reform; and in certain areas of the province, government reform has already been established. • "It is this kind of a group that determines where you are going," said Pearson. He pointed out there is no dictum from Toronto concerning the type of government reform throughout the province and stressed that Seal campaign over half way The current Ontario Easter Seal campaign, which ends March 29, is endeavouring to raise $1,600,000 to continue and enlarge these services. In Exeter the objective is $2,050. The campaign is being conducted by the Exeter Lions Club in conjunction with the Society, and one-half the money raised locally is retained by the Club for direct assistance to needy handicapped youngsters in this area. Local campaign chairman George Busche reported Wednesday morning that donations in the amount of $1,250 had been received which is 'slightly over 60 percent of the objective. Anyone that has not made a contribution as yet is asked to return the pink envelope they received in the mails recently or make a donation directly to the Exeter Lions club treasurer Harold Gunn. Drop one shift at Dunlop Tire Dunlop Canada Ltd. turned down an offer from its employees Monday to invest their severance pay in an effort to keep their Toronto plant oper- ating. Dunlop announced Monday, March 6 it would close its Toronto plant because of "a combination of factors of small market, high material and labor costs and foreign competition." Bill Locke, general manager of the Bicycle Tire Division of Dunlop at Huron Park told the T-A Tuesday, the Toronto plant closing would have no effect on the local operation. Locke said his plant here would have to purchase some raw materials probably from Whitby instead of the Toronto plant in the future. The Dunlop head at Huron Park said he was forced to reduce his staff from three to two shifts last week due to a slowness in business. Locke added he expected the cutback would be "very short-lived". Sewer program gets extension Exeter council decided this week to extend their sewer program to include about 355 feet of storm sewer on Sherwood Crescent in the Dow subdivision. Council learned that C. A. McDowell had purchased six building lots on the street and planned to install the required services this year. It was noted that council could save considerably by putting in the storm sewer when the excavation was taking place for the sanitary sewer and water lines. this will vary from area to area. Clinton Reeve Harold Lobb wondered if Huron County would be likely to become a region by itself. John Pearson told him he had no answer for that at the present time because he hadn't made an intensive study of the area. He suggested that Huron County Legislators would do well to get together to draw up some uniform bylaws for the lakefront properties so that rules would not change from township to township within the county boundaries. "Then you've got something going for you," Pearson said. Pearson told Exeter Mayor Jack Delbridge that the Ottawa-Carleton area where regional government has been established is experiencing some growing pains at the present time which might account for reports that the system isn't working too satisfactorily in that district. Delbridge also questioned how rural and urban municipalities could be joined together successfully. He stated that the urban centres have sewers and sidewalks to finance and that rural taxpayers wouldn't be too sympathetic to such problems. Pearson explained that the people who received the services would pay for them and that such matters could be resolved under the system of government. Anson. McKinley, deputy-reeve of Stanley said it was "none of their (Toronto's) business how money is spent locally". He said if we are going to 'elect people to govern affairs locally they should also be given the responsibility to dispense their own financial affairs. "And that's what you should be saying to the people as you travel around the province," McKinley told Pearson. Pearson reminded McKinley that first, the local structure must be a workable one. Walker indicated that he could support a system whereby some of the authority now the responsibility of Queen's Park would be delegated locally. He suggested this transfer of power could prevent the local governments from being "second guessed by Toronto"' In his remarks, Zurich Reeve Gordon Hess said he detested the term Regional Government and preferred to call it government reform. He said we must be concerned not about Court — Continued from page 1 court in a charge against Zygmond Sierpien, Grand Bend, of making false statements regarding earnings to the Unemployment Insurance Commission. It was decided that because the charge arose from an alleged offence in London, it was out of the jurisdiction of the local court. what exists today, but what will exist in the future. Warden Roy Westcott said he had mixed feelings on government reform. He commended the C of C for their interest in the matter, but suggested C of C members should follow this through by getting more involved in local politics perhaps attending nomination meetings, etc. more faithfully. Teachers —Continued from page 1 that space is available for children of public school supporters. The decision followed a request from the Huron-Perth Separate School Board to purchase kindergarten education for Wingham pupils in the Turnberry Central School. A letter from the Huron-Perth Separate School Board suggesting the co-ordination of bus routes "in order to avoid duplication of services was referred to the transportation committee for further study. The board indicated it would take a look at the entire bus system during the next few months. Dogs — Continued from page 1 system used in Stephen, but no members of council knew what this system entailed. Thete was no proposals presented for changing the present setup to charge owners of dogs not caught, but whose identity was known. In noting the clinic looked after many animals, as well as dogs, Mrs. Helen Jermyn said the ratepayers should realize that the clinic was in fact providing an animal control officer for the community — and not just a dog catcher. Accidents — Continued from page 1 there is no answer at the local detachment office or if callers get a busy signal. For emergencies, persons can call long distance and ask for Zenith 50000. This will get them in touch with the closest OPP office. He explained that in most cases, where no answer is received at the local office, the officers are on patrol. They can quickly be contacted by radio from the office reached by calling the Zenith number. There is no toll charge. Police also remind area farmers that now the busy farm season is approaching, slow moving vehicle signs are required for all tractors and self propelled equipment being operated on roads. Some warnings have been given out to date, but charges will be laid against those not adhering to this regulation.

Works superintendent Glen Kells told council his department has already received four complaints of flooded basements. The works department staff worked two hours at one home, and Kells questioned if this should be charged to the property owner. When council learned the person in question had sewers available — and had not hooked in — they unanimously agreed the two hours should be charged. This was established as policy. Kells reported his staff had been busy patching roads for the past two weeks, and indicated it looked as though the work would continue for some time due to the number of holes now showing in streets. He told council of an incident last week when he had occasion to inspect a trench being dug by a contractor for a sewer connection. Kells said the trench was not in good condition, but he had no authority to demand improvements before the work continued. Council quickly took steps to give him that authority,naming him safety inspector under the trench excavating act. He reported that some tree trimming had been completed and suggested the works crew could undertake more of this work if they had the proper equipment. Again, council took quick action as they authorized the purchase of a 32-foot safety ladder and a small chain saw.
