The new bylaw is now in force and appears in its entirety elsewhere in this issue, Few changes have been made since the committee of Ken Ottewell, Don MacGregor and Mery Oudmore submitted the original draft. Permits will be required before any work commences on tile construction, alteration, repairing or moving, the tearing down, wrecking or removing of buildings either in whole or in part, with only a few exceptions.

The Huron County Board of Education has been informed that a program entitled "Arts in the Schools program" will be carried out this fall in Huron elementary schools and perhaps, if interest is sufficient, in some high schools and special education schools, Two artists, Michael Bidner and Alex Wyse will each spend nine days in Huron County elementary schools. Bidner will be at HoWick Central September 28, October 5 and 12; at Robert- son Memorial School, September 29, October 6 and October 13; and at Exeter PS, September 30, October 7 and October 14. Wyse will conduct auditorium sessions in all other elementary schools from September 28 to October 14. He will display some of his paintings and demonstrate the equipment an artist uses. The principals in all of the schools areto make these sessions known to the adults of the com- munity and an invitation will be extended to them, Art activity groups in the high schools may either arrange to go to the elementary schools for the seminar or have the artists visit their classes. The principals for the schools for the retarded were also invited to bring their students to par- ticipate. In an oral report, Director of Education John Cochrane told the 'board that a Guyanese teacher, Morris Agrippa, is in the county for two weeks to study the school system. He comes through the federal and provincial govern- Council members, in their discussions, indicated they will ask that the new bylaw be strictly enforced. "It's a reasonable bylaw and we ask ratepayers to be reasonable too," Councillor Helen Jerinyn noted, The permits approved by council Monday night were all subject to the new provisions, They are also subject to final approval by the building in- spector. Permits approved were as follows: Gerald Finnen, to instal a below ground pool at 213 Kingscaurt Crescent; Gerald Reid, to enlarge verandah at 256 Carling; Hopper-Hockey Fur- niture Ltd., to make interior renovations to warehouse on William; SHAHS, to build a shed at the north side of the school; Laverne McCarter, to renovate basement at 287 Pryde; Robert Grant, to erect a storage shed at 77 Ann; R.E. Jackson, to shingle house at 92 John. L. Culbert, to re-side house at 457 William; Mrs. Loretta Bur- dan, to instal bathroom at 98 William; William Brock, to build an additon to Brock Tire Building on Wellington St.; Carl Mills, to renovate bathroom and instal window at 187 Main; Percy McFalls, to shingle roofs at 441 Albert and 249 Albert; Don Haines, shingling at 313 Carling; K. Kleinfeldt, shingling at 64 Huron; Gregus Construction, shingling roofs for Mrs. Rufus Kestle and Miss Ruby Miners, Acc idents to be established a park area to be maintained by the students. "I think it is a good idea to turn this over to the students and let them run it themselves," said Addison. "We've got to give them some responsibility. We can't say Thou shalt not smoke, I don't think we can stop these kids from smoking, I couldn't stop mine, I had quite a time to stop myself from smoking." "I don't know where board jurisdiction begins and ends," said the chairman, "but I do know this came to the board for decision." "It's a project in itself," argued Dr. Addison. "Maybe park management will become a new subject here.If we suppress these things and not let them do a darn thing, how are they going to learn?" Discussion showed that three of the five high schools - Wingharn, Seaforth, and Exeter - had defined smoking areas on the Goderich District Collegiate Institute remains the only high school in Huron County where the students are not permitted to smoke on the school grounds following a decision at Monday evening's board of education meeting in Clinton, , Board members agreed to permit the students at Central Huron Secondary School to establish a recreation area to the west of the school and it is un- derstood that smoking will be permitted there. Chairman of the board, Robert Elliott, said he hoped the ratepayers would not interpret this to mean that the board of education approved of students smoking. However, Elliott pointed out that in many cases, parents have not been able to pursuade their children to stop smoking and he felt the school board would have no better luck, especially since students are presently using the sidewalk immediately in front of CHSS as a smoking area anyway, John Henderson, iVIcKillop, said he approved of the recreation area at the school but asked that the hoard encourage the students not to smoke there. "I'm not going to interfere with their plans," stated Henderson, "but as a board member I don't like to see it passed as a smoking area." Dr. Alex Addison, Clinton, disagreed. He said the area was In making his final report of the h. season to Grand Bend council on the cost of operating the beach program this summer councillor Murray A, DesJardins em- phasized that criticism aimed at him earlier was not necessarily wellfounded, Several meetings earlier, • DesJardins had been asked to cut down on the amount of overtime wages paid to the bath house attendant, In his report,Des Jardins said bath house attendant wages this year were only $201.07 higher than 1970 and he attributed some of the increase to a higher hourly rate 'being paid. PCs name new exec — Continued from front page Damage was listed at $475. The final crash occurred around 11:10 p.m. Tuesday, when a car operated by Mary L. Breen, Huron Park, struck a hydro pole and brace wire. Damage was listed at $525 by Constable Bill Glassford and the driver sustained bruises in the crash. During the week the local of- ficers charged 30 drivers under the Highway Traffic Act and issued warnings to another 16. There were two charges under the Criminal Code. Cpl. Ray Brooks issued a reminder to area farmers that tail lights are required at the rear of all wagons, grain boxes, etc., when on the roads after dusk. Cost of cutting grass and maintaining the green areas was listed at $386,25, an increase of $13,75 over the previous year. Cost of lifeguard wages was also up from $2,252.71 to $2,489,09, Due to the weather receipts at the parking lot were down con- siderably from 1970, Parking lot income in the summer just completed was listed at $3,541.99 while last year it was $4,686.11. After Des Jardins report, considerable time was spent discussing the lifeguard program. Des Jardins had earlier suggested that the lifeguard program should be eliminated. Councillor Shirley Sylvester when this point was again mentioned said, "I'll never be in favour of abolishing lifeguards." Continuing she said, "Mothers here in Grand Bend don't take their kids to the beach they send them with instructions, to play or swim in front of the lifeguards. Reeve John Payne and coun- cillor Dave Jackson suggested that part of the answer to this question would be to confine the swimming areas. Reeve Payne who failed to get council approval several months ago to send out a report on council activities to all ratepayers brought the subject up again Monday night. With the provision that every committee chairman would write a report, approval was given to have a council news letter prepared near the end of the year. In addition to naming their candidate, Friday, the Huron Progressive Conservatives named a new executive, Bill Dale of Clinton replaced Doug Freeman as president. The vice-presidents are Harvey Coleman, Stanley; Jim Hayter, Goderich; Mrs. M. Mooney, Goderich; Robert Dinsmore, Seaforth, •Two vice-president positions were left open for YPC representatives.

PROCLAMATION MICHAEL T, BOYLE The death of Michael Thomas Boyle occurred suddenly August 24, 1971 following a heart attack at his residence at Bramalea, Ont. Son of the late Patrick and Cecelia Boyle, he was born in McGillivray Township, 57 years ago. He was predeceased by his wife the former Eileen McGuinness of Stratford, July 15 of this year. The late Mr, Boyle was an employee of Carling Brewery of Windsor and Toronto for 25 years. He is survived by sisters, Mrs. William (Rowena) Mcllhargy, Lucan, Mrs. John (Mary) Murtagh, Windsor, Mrs. Ina Mae Reidy, London and brothers Harold of London and Leo of Clandeboye. He was predeceased by two brothers, William and Roderick and a sister, Mrs. Eugene (Lucy) Faubert. The funeral was held from the Heinbuck Funeral Home, Stratford to St. Joseph's Church, Friday, August 27, 1971 where requiem mass was sung by Rev. Father Keane. Interment was in Avondale Cemetery. Pallbearers were Thomas McDonnell, Jack McGuinness, William Bannon, Bernard Faubert, Jack Murtagh and Joseph Mcllhargey. Area population much the same The results of the census in Exeter were revealed at Monday night's council session. The 1971 figure was 3,379 compared to a total of ' 3,226 in 1966. Three area townships are in- cluded in the second release of population figures compiled from the 1971 census. The counts are subject to revision, but will be a ctolollsye. approximation to the final McGillivray Township shows an increase of two people over the 1966 figure. There are 1,720 persons in the township. Stephen shows a drop from 4,877 in 1966 to the figure for this year of 3,796, while Usborne has increased from 1,538 to 1,592. Two other Huron townships are also included in the Statistics Canada bulletin. McKillop has dropped from 1,569 to 1,567 and Morris has gone up from 1,520 to 1,597. school property already. Goderich Principal John Stringer is the only principal in the county who has not given permission for the student body to smoke on the school grounds - or even on the sidewalks adjacent to the school. "If principals have the management of the grounds in their jurisdiction and the say about smoking, one wonders why this came before the board at all," stated George Parsons, Goderich. Director of Education John Cochrane reminded the board that 18-year olds are now adults by provincial government decision. "They're adults too, the same as the teachers," noted Cochrane. "They will say that the teachers smoke in the school so why can't they." Elliot quipped that the ultimate solution might be to have the teachers smoke on the recreation area too. John Broadf000t, Brucefield, claimed that since the students were smoking in front of the school, it would be in the interest of safety to remove them to a recreation area off the roadside. "All you need is one hotrod going up the street in front of the high school and you could have several less smokers," noted Broadfoot. A recorded vote showed that only two board members - John Henderson and Mrs. Marion Zinn - were in favor of a board stipulation that smoking be prohibited on the recreation area at CHSS, A new motion that the recreation area be established and left for the remainder of the school year under the jurisdiction of the CHSS Principal Robert Homuth and the student body was approved. "I have faith in the students body and the principal of this school," said Dr. Addison. Safety contest The annual bicycle safe driving contest began this week and is progressing favourably ac- cording to police. Students from Exeter public school and Precious Blood separate school are eligible for awards going to students that show the best knowledge of safe driving rules and carry them out. In making comment on the contest to date, police chief Ted Day said he has noticed some pupils "didn't seem to know their right hand from their left in making stopping and turning signals." He asks parents to help their children in an attempt to win the safety awards. A total of 10 warning tickets have been issued this week to students not obeying safety rules.
