Each village property owner that started construction without a building permit will be notified that they were contravening the village building by-law and are liable of a fine up to $50. The Huron County Board of Education feels that some students may suffer unjustified hardships when their place of residence is changed during the school year from one school district in Huron schools before he has completed a program of studies in a particular school. It has therefore been agreed that it will be the policy of the board to permit children to finish their course of study in the school in which they are enrolled providing there is no additional cost to the board as a result of the decision. It is understood, however, that when the pupil has finished his schooling in the school of his former residence that, inthecase of moving from elementary school to secondary school, he shall enrol in the designated school for the area in which he resides unless enrolment in another school is approved under other board policy or resolution.

Fred Brown asked Reeve James Hayter on what authority the township proceeded with the scheme to the extent they have. Hayter told of an early meeting in August of 1965 when a straw vote was taken at a meeting in Grand Bend. At that time, 23 voted in favor of a water system, seven were against, 17 were undecided and 13 gave no answer. A questionnaire sent out in 1966 showed 57% of the owners representing 70% of the area's assessment were in favor of proceeding with the system, Mr, Gregory of Stratford representing Maple Grove and Sunnyside was told that the Maple Grove property owned by a syndicate would be assessed a maximum frontage of 250 feet and charged for the actual cost of 6-inch line construction. On the commercial and farm rates where meters will be used, Gregory questioned the fairness of the charges. Owners would pay $10 for the first 10,000 gallons per month and 80c per thousand for the remainder. He suggested cottage owners that pay $28 per year would be subsidizing commercial owners and farm operators that could use more water than the rest of the property owners put together, Engineer Ross said construction would take from four to six months and could start as soon as permission is given by the Municipal Board. Witnesses were questioned by Stephen township solicitor Elmer D. tell in addition to Raymond and Gregory. The Meeting was still in Progress at press time, Wednesday afternoon. the banks of the Ausable River within the village limits. The Authority and village are prepared to proceed with gabion basket work in the area just west of the bridge at the main intersection but one property owner refuses to sign the necessary easement. The bank behind the properties of Emerson Desjardine and Mrs. Shirley Smith has eroded about six feet in the last year but in negotiations with C.V. Laughton who owns adjoining property the village has been unable to get the proper easements, Engineer Keith Latham was emphatic in his report that the remedial work be started as soon as possible, saying, "It's quite urgent that something be done about this right away, if erosion continues and it gets down to the first building, no way can it be saved." Start plans for service As in many other parts of Ontario, there is sometimes a serious shortage of hospital beds in Huron County and action must be taken in the near future to prevent what could become a difficult situation for those requiring hospitalization. In co-operation with the Ontario Provincial Department of Health,,Huron County Board of Health and Huron County Medical Society are carrying out an intensive investigation into the practicability of a Comprehensive Home Care Program in Huron County. The objective of the Program will be to release hospital beds: (a) by early discharge of selected patients who can continue and complete their treatment program at home, (b) by admitting selected patients to the Home Care Program for treatment in lieu of admission to hospital. This will result in decreased hospital care costs, will lessen the need for additional provision of hospital beds and will bring into the home, in suitable cases equipment, services and treatment that would normally be available only in hospital. The entire cost of an approved Home Care Program will be covered by Provincial grants. The first step in setting up this Program will be to determine how many nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists and homemakers will be available on a full-time or part-time basis. Needless to say, those employed will be paid for their work. Although a Comprehensive Home Care Program is not yet in being in Huron County, those who think that they would be interested in working in such a Program should contact the Medical Officer of Health, Huron County Health Unit, Goderich, Ontario as soon as possible. The village will be obtaining the services of their land surveyor, the London firm of Gray, Archibald and McKay to do a survey of the area involved while solicitor John Gillies attempts to get the easement. Laughton has returned a copy of the easement with several amendments attached. About 65 McKillop township ratepayers, a large percentage of them • parents with children attending elementary schools in McKillop, attended Monday evening's meeting of the Huron County Board of Education to voice concern for the educational future of the children in McKillop. Although the delegation's spokesman, Art Bolton, claimed that the group present represented the segment of McKillop ratepayers who favored joining with Seaforth Public School for educational purposes, it was evident there was some discord within the group. While no one in the group was opposed to closing the township's six one-room schools, there was disagreement about the type of facilities which would be best for McKillop youngsters. Results of an incomplete survey taken in McKillop recently showed that out of 130 homes visited, 91 families were in favor of the McKillop-Seaforth union. Board chairman John Levis learned that 130 homes represented about two-thirds of the total number, and after some quick mental arithmetic estimated that 91 signatures showed that about half the McKillop ratepayers favored the union. Bolton explained that if the entire township had been surveyed, the results would be much more favorable. He suggested that a full canvass should be completed if signatures were the determining guide for the board's decision about McKillop schools. Board member Dan Murphy told the delegation it had to be a board decision and that, to a certain extent, the board was 711/ "We were to show a film to- night about new developments in the postal service, Unfor- tunately it got lost in the mail," During the tearing down of one of Cr'editor's oldest buildings couple of weeks ago, a copy of the issue of the Exeter Reflector of November 21, 1878 was found. At that time the paper operated by White and. Carrick was in its fifth month of publication. The subscription rates were $1.59 per annum and the advertising rates for business cards were four dollars per year. Several business firms offered a variety of services for their customers. O'Byrne and Company, dealers in Hardware also had marriage licences for sale and money to loan on notes or mortgages. One of the banks advertised allowing five percent on savings bank deposits of one dollar and upwards. Announcement was made of the opening of the new Evangelical Lutheran Church in Zurich for Sunday, December 1 with the sermon being preached in German in the morning and English in the afternoon. In the Centralia news a report was given on activities of the debating society in the village, George W. Holman and A. J. Rollins were the captains in the weekly debate which "resolved that the pen has done more to civilize the world than the sword." After a three-hour spirited debate, the affirmative bound by the dictates of the Ontario department of education in this matter. One McKillop ratepayer suggested that it would possibly be more satisfactory to "leave things the way they are fora year or so" until it is clear what the best solution will be. "If we're making a change, make a right move," he cautioned. Vice-chairman Robert Elliott noted that it had been the experience of some board's that if changes were not made when they were approved by the department, they were very difficult to achieve at a later date. He said that an addition of three classrooms and a library at Seaforth to accommodate the McKillop students would be financed 100 percent by the department. Any other move made without department consent, could be costly at this time. One McKillop resident asked the board to consider the Walton situation at the same time as it is deliberating about the McKillop problem. "Walton deserves equal education," he stressed. "They have every right to ask for it." Elliott said it was his belief that the department was endeavoring first to phase out all the one-room schools in the province and then work toward equal educational opportunities throughout Ontario.. During the discussions, it was evident that many parents present were concerned about certain teachers working in McKillop. They were told it was very difficult to let a teacher go since the law prohibits a board from retiring a teacher until he or she reaches 65 years of age and since teachers are under permanent contract. "Who has control over the teachers?" asked one lady. Director of education John Cochrane said that it must be proven that the teacher is incompetent. Elliott reported that forms are available on which ratepayers may make complaints concerning teachers. "Improved facilities are not riecessarily going to make better teachers, ' advised Mr. Cochrane. Several McKillop residents agreed that McKillop students were making an average showing after leaving the McKillop school system. side was declared the winner.

The new scheme will be for a trial period initially, the months of August, September, October and November. Meeting dates will be changed from the first and third Monday evenings to the second and fourth Monday evenings. This change will permit processing month-end reports for inclusion in regular meeting agenda. The regular business meeting open to the public will be held at 8 p.m. on the second Monday with items for committee of the whole marked on the agenda. Committee of the whole meetings will be held at 8 p.m. on the fourth Monday followed by meetings and discussion with principals, department heads, guidance heads, teachers with special or interesting programs, presidents of students' councils, plant superintendents, etc. "In Camera" sessions may be held for a half hour prior to the committee of the whole meeting. Discussion at these sessions will include matters of a personal or private nature involving individual students and personnel and the like. No different than most! Exeter council this week decided to take no action against local contractor Sam Sweitzer who recently moved the former Main St. parsonage garage to his property on Waterloo St. without the required permit. Deputy-Reeve Mery Cudmore indicated he had followed council's request to interview Sweitzer about the matter. However, members of council came to the conclusion the situation was not much different than a great number of others in which people make renovations or additions before having building permits approved by council. "I guess he's just in line with many other people," Mayor Del bridge lamented. "He could still apply for a permit," Councillor Ross Dobson added. During his talk with Sweitzer, Cudmore was advised by the local contractor of a car and truck in the neighborhood parked on town property and of the poor drainage conditions in the area. A discussion was held regarding the drainage and council hopes, to undertake a municipal rain there in connection with Stephen Township. Rezoning — Continued from front page noted this was an important corner as it was the only street in the business area that went straight through. "I think it's important to keep it open," he said. At the meeting, council also approved several building permits. These were as follows: R. Shoebottom, to erect carport and breezeway at 134 Gidley; Len Veri, to erect a swimming pool at 210 Sanders E.; Donald Lee, to replace breezeway ndr ew walls N. and cement floor at 156 A Minor renovations and repairs were also approved for H.
