We have recently placed an order with Northern Electric Co. Ltd. to supply equipment extensions for all three of our ex- changes; the equipment being necessary to meet the re- quirements of existing and potential customers, We are con- tinuing to replace our existing pole lines with underground cable; our goal being to have all major lines replaced with un- derground cable. We are continually working with Bell Canada and other independent telephone companies in regard to extablishing Extended Area Service to neighbouring communities. As we are all aware the costs of materials over the post years have increased substantially including those required in the telephone industry. To meet the costs of equipment and cable necessary to supply the demands of our customers we find that we must look pt our rate structure which has not in- creased since 1971. The rate increases we propose are in line with other telephone companies in Ontario. Application has been made to the Ontario Telephone Service Commission for authority to make the following charges for telephone service, effective January 1st, 1974. EXCHANGE RATES - Individual line Two-party line Multi-party line PBX Trunk GRAND BEND ZONE RATES Zone 1 Individual line Business Residence Two-party Business Residence Zone 2 Four-Party line Multi-party line Business Residence Business Residence Per Month $ 7,75 4.30 6.25 3.35 4,65 3.25 11.00 8.50 5.05 6,75 3,85 5.75 3.45 4,65 3,25 All Exchanges Business Residence Business Residence Business Residence If individual or two party line service is required outside the Base Rate Areas of the three exchanges or Zone 1 (Grand Bend), excess circuit charges will apply. SUBSCRIBER RATES: A paid-up subscriber shall pay 50 cents per month less than the above listed renter rates. a' new subsdiber shall pay the sub- scriber's rate plus $1.50 per month for ten years at which time he will be con- sidered to be a paid-up subscriber. SUMMER SERVICE RATES Application has also been made to the Ontario Telephone Service Commission for the cancellation effective April 1, 1974, of "Summer Service Rates" which provided that the system charge full rates for seven months and $1.00 per month for the five winter months. It has been found that more and more people use their cottages and summer homes all year round and in any case the cost of the system is the same when the phone is used during only part of the year as it is when it is used on a year-round basis. Customers may still cancel their service in the Fall and have it re-installed the following summer, but the system could not guarantee that they would be assigned the same telephone number or that their name would appear in the telephone directory. Furthermore, installation charges would apply if a customer wished to re-establish service. This application will be heard before the Commission at its next regular meeting in Toronto. Any representations to be made to the Commission with respect to this application should, therefore, be submitted on or before December 24, 1973, and addressed to the Chairman, Ontario Telephone Service Commission, 1201 Wilson Avenue, East Building, Downsview, Ontario, M3M 1J8, If you desire any further information in reference to the need for increasing the telephone rates, you may apply to the undersigned either personally, by telephone, or by letter. W. C. Horner, Secretary-Treasurer, Hay Municipal Telephone System, Zurich, Ontario.

Pao" With the current school term nearing completion,no settlement has been reached between the Huron-Perth Separate School Board and their teachers. The teachers held a meeting in The Strathroy Middlesex museum board met November 27, with six members present, plus Mrs. M. Wardell and Mrs. A. Lumsden, representing the Women's Institutes, and Mrs. J. McDonald, the curator. Business included approving the purchase of a typewriter, making plans for the Christmas tea, improving lighting, con- sideration of rents of the apart- ments in the museum building. It was reported that William Lyon McKenzie's printing press, which Kenneth Campbell, editor of the Strathroy Age Dispatch, had offered to put on display in the museum, was too big to go in, either by the door or a window. One of the pleasant events was the presentation, by Jack Eakins, on behalf of the board, of a painting of the museum, done by John Koistein, to Nelson Johnson, as a tribute to his hard work and dedication, as chairman during the organizational years of the museum. Mrs. Johnson was also present for this part of the program. The museum was represented in the Strathroy Santa Claus parade when Lloyd Smith drove his antique car, carrying museum banners, and Luke Bowley, dressed in a fur coat and top hat donated to the museum. The display of old fashioned Christmas cards and gifts con- tinues until the end of December, with the museum open Wed- nesdays and Sundays, from 2 to 5 p,m., and at other times by ap- pointment. The museum will be closed during the month of January, to allow for refinishing the stair- case, and doing some other painting. It is hoped to have a euchre party, perhaps in February, as a means of making money, and attracting visitors to the museum. The next meeting of the board will be on December 18, at 8 p.m., when the main business will be discussion of the 1974 budget. Anyone interested is invited to attend. Tuesday that their prime concern is still in the education of the students and they are not anxious to have the schools shut down in January. Apparently the board has refused to meet with the Provincial Association of the English Catholic Teachers Federation and still request negotiations with the local committee of teachers. In contrast, the local teachers feel negotiations are out of their hands since they turned the problem over to the provincial group. Following the Tuesday meeting, the teachers sent a telegram to the board asking to reconsider their decision and meet with provincial negotiators. The board was asked to reply by Wednesday night. If this request fails, the teachers agreed to telegram the Ministry of Education and ask for mediation to settle the salary dispute. At the same time, teachers voiced strong opposition to the new bill being presented in the Ontario Legislature regarding teacher resignations. Gary Birmingham, public affairs chairman for the teachers will attend a mass meeting in Toronto where delegates will thoroughly discuss the new plan and compose strategy to oppose. formerly housed a Newby Tire warehouse. The application which stated as many as six homes may be built was approved provided all requirements of the Huron. County Health Unit are met. Clayton Ross of Kirkton at- tended the latest meeting at the request of council and agreed that arrangements can be made to provide a waste disposal site on his father's property at Lot 10, W.O. Concession in the township of Blanshard for the new Cook's Division of Gerbro plant being built at Kirkton. The contract to produce tax billing procedures for 1974 has been awarded to IBM Canada Limited of London at its total estimated cost of $603.60 based on 1973 requirements. Tax collector Harry Strang reported a 1973 tax collection to date of $279,991.54, The total tax roll is $324,027.14. One tile drainage debenture in the amount of $7,200 was ap- proved. Passing of a township recreation bylaw and appointing a committee to govern same was deferred until a special meeting to be held this week. Also deferred was a decision on a proposal from the Huron County engineer's office for the township road department to take over the dragging of County road 11 as a means towards more timely summer maintenance. County road 11 runs from Whalen in a northerly direction, through Winchelsea and across Highway 83 to the north boun- daries of the municipality.
