Employees using their vehicles will be paid a mileage rate of 20 cents per mile, although the original suggestion was for a fee of 25 cents, Councillor Ted Wright said he thought the 25 cent figure was too high. "With thinking like this, we'll never lick inflation", he suggested. Reeve Derry Boyle said he fought against a county council motion to pay 21 cents per mile, while other members thought if county people were receiving 21 NO DECISION Although it's a long way from being ready forice,an enquiry has been received for the use of the new South Huron Recreation Centre for a hockey school next summer. The Huron Hockey School, which presently uses the arena at Huron Park, have advised local officials they plan to extend their program and require a second ice surface. If agreement is reached, the rec centre could be used from August 7 to 27 next year. The program would be in operation for eight hours a day for five days each week. Mayor Bruce Shaw said this week at council's meeting that no answer could be given to the enquiry until the new year. It is expected that deliberations will take place shortly over the method of operation for the new rec centre and Mayor Shaw has advised that Stephen and Usborne officials will be invited to take part in those deliberations. i.a•r•a•:ia.oaa••••aa•••••••Is•...a.szesasrle SMITH — To all our neighbors, relatives and friends, a very merry Christmas and best wishes for the new year. John and Mary Smith and family cents, that is the figure that should be paid in Exeter, However, a show of hands at Monday's meeting approved the figure as 20 cents. The new fringe benefit package also indicated that employees would be covered with a $30,000 life insurance policy. "That's a pretty big, hefty life insurance policy," Wright noted. Reeve Derry Boyle replied that the matter was now under in- vestigation by the town's in- surance carrier and said it may not be possible to get that much insurance. He noted that the police presently are covered by a $20,000 policy. One of the other changes in- cludes sic* time. Employees will be allowed one and a half days per month and may accumulate up to 100 days in sick time. However, they can receive only the maximum if they are actually sick, As a retirement gratuity, employees will fall under a schedule whereby the number of sick days accumulated will be divided by two and then multiplied by their daily rate of pay, It was noted as well that this is for retirement only and em- ployees leaving the town's em- ploy will not b0 paid for sick days accumulated. BIG RISK Farmers who use un- pasteurized milk from their herds are "taking a big risk" according to Huron Medical Officer of Health Dr. Frank Mills, He made the comment in view of the increase in Brucellosis being reported in Huron and throughout Ontario. He said Brucellosis in milk causes Undulant Fever, which is a chronic relapsing fever. Dr. Mills also had a warning for area cooks as the festive season approaches. He said that fowl should be kept refrigerated at all times and once dressing has been put into the bird, it should be immediately cooked or refrigerated. 141 cit,t,ia S14a C 0.

Constable Ron Fice set damages at $225. As the result of a collision Saturday, local police officers are looking for a green colored vehicle with damage to the left front. The unkown vehicle was in- volved in a crash on Main Street near the bridge with a vehicle driven by Raymond Snell, RR 1, Hay. Constable George Robert- son listed damages at $600. Sunday, the police department was called to the Les Pines Hotel to investigate a disturbance, As a result, two patrons were removed and will be appearing in court at a later date facing charges of causing a disturbance. Bachelors' wives and old maids' children are always perfect. • Exeter Police Association whereby the local officers will receive an 11 percent pay hike for next year. Improvements in fringe benefits are on top of that. However, the contract is subject to approval of the Anti- Inflation Board and Reeve Derry Boyle said the administrator could levy a fine against the town for approving a contract above the six percent guideline established by the A.I.B. and he could also order the town to pay for the over-payments rather than having the officers pay back any amount found in excess of the guidelines. Boyle said the A.I.B. appeared to be sticking very close to the guidelines in approving contracts for 1977 and he said county council members had the feeling that they would have to roll back wage settlements to the six percent increase. Boyle indicated the six percent increase was supposed to include added fringe benefits as well. Mayor Bruce Shaw said he was rather disturbed over the situation if in fact the town could be held liable for fines or penalties if the guidelines were exceeded. Boyle said the safest thing to do would be to pay the six percent increase to the police and if more is approved by the A.I.B, this could be paid later. Shaw said the only argument the town could have for ex- ceeding the guidelines was the fact they were coming out of a two-year contract. SHELVE DRAIN Stephen council this week notified Exeter that they have shelved all plans for the Waterloo St. drain. "It's too costly for the benefits to be gained," Clerk Eric Car- scadden said in explaining Stephen's position on the drain, Ted Wright asked how long the drain may be shelved and he was told no time period had been established. Exeter and Stephen had planned to cooperate on the storm drain, but an en- vironmental board hearing this fall had altered the plans sub- stantially and both councils decided not to proceed with the work at this time.
