Not very many years ago the laws con- trolling the sale of medicines were pretty strict. Even such products as aspirin could 'not be sold except in a pharmacy and fir wily by a registered pharmacist. When these legal bar- riers were broken down, we fast became what the experts now call a "pill taking, drug orien- R ted society." It has reached such drastic proportions that now it has become necessary to try and put the brakes on with new regulations and laws. Frankly, we thought the public had their needs served` ietter when medicines were only sold by people with training and knowledge of drugs.

REGULAR GASOLINE WITH for cleaner, more economical, trouble-free miles MPA, the (multi-purpose additive) works for you in three ways: as a Detergent, it cleans dirty car- buretors and keeps them clean for better mileage, less maintenance. De-icer, its coating action keeps ice particles from plugging up your carburetor and stalling your engine. Anti-corrosion Agent, it forms a protective coating that guards against rust build-up on the interior walls of tanks, fuel lines, pumps, carburetor bowls and even storage tanks. When you want the benefits of an additive but you don't need the higher octane of a premium grade gasoline, use CO-OP Regular. Exeter District- Co 235-2081 Beside the C.N.R.

Mr. Lutchin has been in ill-health since mid-November, said Mr. Shaw, and submitted his resignation, effective January 1. In addition, the association is in the process of selling the north part of the building to local businessmen Mel Gaiser and Jim Kneale. Final negotiations of this $40,000 deal are pending on the acquisition of severance per- mission. These delays have also caused a postponement in the campaign for funds which the association had planned to conduct around Exeter before Christmas. "With the windfalls we received (the acquisition of the former DIL plant and the sale of part of it) we didn't know where we stood financially," said Mr. Shaw, "and we didn't want to ask the people of Exeter for more money Controversy continues over the proposed "seven to thirteen concept" for North Middlesex District High School. On January 8, a delegation headed by Dr. Murray Boyce representing the areas of Parkhill, Ailsa Craig, East and West Williams and McGillivray townships presented a brief to Hon. Thomas Wells, Minister of Education at Toronto. The brief outlined the group's opposition to moving grade VII and VIII students from the elementary feeder schools to NMDHS and their desire to have better facilities at both the elementary and secondary levels. Three members of the Mid- dlesex District School Board Considering new facilities Two directors of the 'Exeter District Co-Op were told this week Exeter council could see no problems related to plans to add extra facilities at the local Co-Op. Bob Down and Fred Miller attended Monday's meeting, with Down explaining the Co-Op is considering the possibility of building an elevator, dryer and holding bins. He said the pollution problem — stemming from dust — was a concern and he wondered what council would have to say in this regard. Reeve Derry Boyle said there was no problem as far as zoning was concerned and he said complaints had never been registered regarding similar facilities in the area. Down questioned if the provincial government may have more to say regarding pollution than council does. "Definitely," Boyle replied. before we could give them a fairly good estimate of how much it was going to cost us". Tentative estimates for con- struction and renovations are around $70,000 said Mr. Shaw. He added that final specifications from the architect will be presented in mid-February, and they hope to start the canvass the first week in March. Members of the Kinsmen Club and the Ladies' Legion Auxiliary will co-ordinate the canvass with the help of other service clubs. A general meeting of the South Huron Association for the Mentally Retarded will be held January 24 in Exeter Public School. Bruce Heath, director of the Children's Aid Society for Huron County will be the guest speaker. "From this stage on, we plan to keep close contact with the community," said Mr. Shaw. were also present for the presentation of the brief to Mr. Wells. They were Thomas Green, Board Chairman, Dr. F. F. Boyes and Kelly Robinson. In a letter released by the delegation, they said their brief was "very favorably received by Mr. Wells. Mr. Green was told by Mr. Wells," the letter continued, "that Toronto would be happy to hear, and quite ready to consider a new proposal, rather than the grade seven to thirteen concept". John Gummow, Director of Education for Middlesex County, said that this brief has not been submitted formally to the board. He did say, however, that a copy of it, along with a copy of the letter stating "what they thought Mr. Wells said" was sent in- dividually to the home of each board member. Mr. Gummow said that they hope to have a special board meeting in the latter part of February and "settle the question and stick to that decision".

McDOWELL "Things are finally getting under way again", said Bruce Shaw, head of publicity for the South Huron Association for the Mentally Retarded, with reference to the adult workshop at Dashwood. At a meeting held Tuesday night, the association accepted the architect's preliminary drawings for the workshop, and Mr. Shaw said he hopes con- struction will begin by April 1, The plans, which were drawn up by the architect and Chuck Lutchin, will involve construction of coatrooms, offices, washrooms and a staircase, and the renovation of present areas into a cafeteria, library and training room. There will also be a new ceiling in the workshop area. Mr. Shaw said the workshop will be ready with a full program in September. They hope to start off with 10 trainees, and expand to 25 within two months. He estimated that work was approximately five months behind the original schedule and attributed the delay to several things. These include difficulties encountered with getting the centre part of the former Dash- wood Industries building demolished; "internal Parkhill school plan controversy continues Page 14 Times-Advocate, January 18, 1973 Hear speaker at Woodham
