The newly approved budget is to cover maintenance and new equipment and does not include wages of the volunteer firemen. One land severance application was approved and a second was rejected. Given the okay was Arnold Keller at Lot 23, Con- cession 16. Continued from front page Hazlitt said she was not opposed to defining an area for study but Price hiked for dairymen Ontario dairy farmers are to receive a price increase of five percent for the milk they produce for table use, effective April 1. In announcing the increase, the Chairman of the Ontario Milk Marketing Board, Kenneth G. McKinnon, stated that for several years the Board has determined the price to Reproducers by using an economic formula as a guide. 'The formula," he said, "more than justifies this five percent increase. "The last increase in producer returns for fluid milk," Mr. McKinnon said, "was on April 1, 1975, and in the two-year span the cost of producing milk, as with other agricultural commodities, has conintued to rise." Skaters plan for carnival The annual carnival of the Exeter Figure Skating Club will be held this year on Saturday, March 12 at 7 p.m. at the Hensall arena, The theme of the carnival is "Happiness Is". Adding to the regular program by the more than 100 local skating club members will be the appearance of four top notch skaters. Heading the cast of visiting skaters will be the Canadian novice pairs skating champs, Laurie Baier of Mitchell and Lloyd Eisler from Seaforth. Also performing will be Jeff Loosley and Keith Baker of the Wood- stock skating club. The bid by John McInnes for a severance at part of Lot 3, Concession 12 was opposed because council felt the lot being severed was too large for residential purposes. Clerk Wilmar Wein was in- structed to invite bids for the supply of a radio system, tower and antennae to be used by the township's road department, Larry Desjardine and Allan Turnbull were named to wanted to be sure that the area chosen provided a cross secion of the county programs. She said some curriculum such as home economics and shop was provided in some schools and not in others and if they were to be evaluated they should be in- cluded in the schools chosen. Exeter area superintendent Robert Allan said the Exeter family of schools included kin- dergarten to grade 8 at the elementary level and also in- cluded the programs offered in most other areas of the county. He said the secondary school was very similar to other areas and the home economics, shop and language programs offered in some county schools would be included in Exeter, Superintendent of supervisory services for the ministry Jay Lockerbie said the first phase of the program was to orientate the school principals in the area chosen. He said the ministry staff would meet the school heads to explain to them that the board was not on a witch hunt but merely taking a look at its system. He said once the comfort level amongst the professionals was established the principals would meet with their staffs to outline the program and get their opinions on it. From there volunteers would be sought and appointed by a committee headed up by the co-ordinator to start the wheels in motion. The board selected the Exeter school area because of its in- dependence. The family of elementary schools all feed into South Huron Secondary School, something unique in the county. In the Clinton, Seaforth, Wingham, Goderich area elementary schools students quite often separate when they reach secondary school due to their home location. In the Goderich-Clinton area students attending the Holmesville Public School in Goderich township may, because of the location of their homes, attend either Goderich District Collegiate Institute or Central Huron Secondary School in Clinton, The Exeter system does not suffer that fate. represent Stephen on the Huron County Farm Safety Association.

There were 13 speakers in the two divisions from separate schools in Huron and Perth counties. The event, in its second year, was sponsored by the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association in the two counties. Cemetery line problem solved A settlement should soon be reached on the Exeter cemetery lot line, Council agreed this week with a recommendation from the cemetery board that they comply with a suggestion from local lawyer Gerry Gray to issue a quit claim to settle the ownership of the property as it applies to property owned by Lloyd Stanlake to the north and east. In return, council will ask that Stanlake provide a quit claim to follow a survey line established by B. M. Ross in 1958. In addition, Stanlake will be asked to grant a 16-foot wide easement across his property for a water line to the nearby Ausable River which is used for watering purposes at the cemetery. Councillor Ted Wright said the recommendation was worked out at recent board meeting which Gray attended. The lawyer had attended council's last meeting to request the quit claim in order that property to the north could be sold. The matter had then been turned over to the board for their recommendation.
