Change restrictions for water use
During Monday’s regular
monthly meeting, the Ex
eter Public Utilities Com
mission set restrictions on
the use of water this
summer.
In a slight change,
residential property owners
will be allowed to water gar
dens and lawns seven days a
week from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Commercial users
use extra water every Mon
day, Wednesday and Friday
morning from 9 a.m. to 11
a.m.
PUC manager Hugh Davis
said these restrictions would
probably go into effect about
July 1 and continue until ear
ly September.
The restrictions are
necessary because of the use
of extra water by Canadian
Canners for the pea and corn
pack.
Davis said he didn’t expect
the canning pack to start
before July 1 because of the
lateness of the planting
season.
For the 1977 season
residential watering was
restricted to three days a
week.
In his manager’s report,
Davis said it was a busy
year for the utility. He con
tinued, “we are having a lot
of work with the two new
shopping areas. We have put
in 22 water services this
year so far.”
He added, “The water
lines are now in for the Zehr
grocery store expected to
open in mid-June. The lines

samples taken. We are star

Davis said some problems
had been encountered in ser
vicing the mini-mall on the
former Chainway property.
He added, “I think we have
everything solved now. All
poles are being eliminated
in back of the stores. It
should be pleasing to council
and businessmen, but, it is
costly. We already have $2,-
500 worth of materials on
order.”
The manager continued,
“We will build as much as
possible during regular
working hours, but, we will
need to have some power in
terruptions .They will likely
come from 6 to 9 in the even
ing. We had a four hour in
terruption Sunday in the
James street area. It’s a big
job.”
“A new laneway in con
nection with the addition at
South Huron Hospital will
necessitate relocation of a
pole there and cause for a
slight interruption,” Davis
concluded.
Davis said
lighting which
proved for 1978 has been
completed.
On the subject of street
lighting, mayor Bruce Sbaw
suggested some streets may
have more lighting than
others. He remarked, “It
appears that there is a waste
of lighting on No. 4 highway.
Manager Davis disagreed
saying, “You won’t find it’s
overlit according to the
book. Actually the lighting
on No. 4 has been in for 16
years and is outdated. I have
never received any com
plaints on this subject.”
Davis said he was provok-
ed with conflicting
regulations of two provincial
bodies. When reconstruction
of William street takes
place the new grade will
leave only four feet of cover
over water mains in the area
of the Exeter Legion.
“The Ministry of the En
vironment calls for five feet
of cover but the Ministry of
Transportation and Com
munications refuses to sub
sidize anything more than
four feet. The main will
never freeze, but, services
might,” Davis added.

Two principals were hired
by the Huron-Perth County
Roman Catholic Separate
School Board at a meeting in
Dublin Monday night.
The two new principals
were chosen from
applicants for the two
vacancies from teachers
now on staff within the
system.
They are Ray Contois,
now teaching Grade 5 at St.
Patrick’s School, Dublin, to
St. Columban, and Miss Bet
ty Clark to St. Mary’s School
at Goderich. She is now a
part time French teacherat
Mount Carmel and Exeter
and in social environmental
studies at the board office.
She was formerly with the
Royal Ontario Museum in
Toronto. Trustee Ronald
Murray of Dublin, one of the
committee members who in
terviewed the applicants,
stated: “I was impressed
with the calibre of teachers
who applied for the two
positions.”
The board accepted the
resignations of Loretta
Hoad, special education
teacher at St. Aloysius
School, Stratford, and
Evenne Carter, Grades 1
and 2 teacher at Sacred
Heart School, Wingham.
Grants amounting to $12,-
000 for Experience ‘78 —
program funded by the
Ministry of Education will
be received by the board this
year. Superintendent Joseph
Mills, who applied for the
grants for the board explain
ed that one will be to hire six
students for a summer
school at St. Patrick’s
School, Dublin: and the
other to set up a resource
centre, also at the same
school, to be manned by six
students.
Mr. Mills said the students
to be hired will range in age
from university to Grade 11
students. They will be given
workshop training for the
jobs.
A project co-ordinator has
been hired for the two
programs — Barbara Lillow
of Bluevale.
For the summer school
the first three weeks in July
will be for Perth County
children and the second
three weeks will be for
Huron County children,
altogether involving about
65 children. Mr. Mills said
this could be expanded to 90
pupils.
The ministry of Education
will pay the full cost of the
programs with no cost to the
board — salaries, transpora-
tion to and from the school
for the children, supplies ...
Only three trustees in
dicated they would attend
the Canadian Catholic
School Trustees’ Association
annual convention to be held
in London this year — Chair-
man Donald Crowley,
Ronald Marcy, Stratford
and William Kinahan,
Lucknow.
During Dublin’s centen
nial celebrations the board
offices and board room will
be open to the visiting public
on Saturday. July 1 and
again on Sunday. But only
until 2:30 p.m. and on Sun
day the board room will be
available to the Ursuline
Sisters for a luncheon.
The board will reply to a
letter from the Huron Coun
ty Board of Education that it
is not interested in the two
school properties which the
Huron Board has for sale,
located just out of St.
Agustineen part lot 27, con
cession 7 of West Wawanosh
Township and the property
at part lot 5, concession 7,
Hullett Township.
In other news, the board:
The board approved the
purchase of a new school bus
to replace the 1976 model at
an approximate cost of $17,-
500.
The board renewed the
lease with the Goderich Day
Care Centre for the former
St. Peter’s School for
Rec board
another year at a rental fee.
of $18,000 up from $16,240.
The board approved the
request of H. Allan
Nicholson for the transfer of
his school bus contract to
J.R. Armstrong for services
to Sacred Heart School,
Wingham.
The board will eliminate
the school route by G.T.
Montgomery for Sacred
Heart School, Wingham, on
June 30,1978.
Due to the decreasing
numbers of students in
Hibbert township attending
St. Columban School, an in
dependent service is no
longer feasible and the
board will solicit United
Trails’ co-operation in ex
tending Keith McCarthy’s
licence to include this area,
and other areas.
The board will petition the
ministry of transportation
and communications and the
Ontario Provincial Police to
survey the existing condition
of intersection of No. 8
highway and Perth County
road No. 10 south and Huron
County road No. 14 in the
village of Dublin leading to
St. Patrick’s School.
Concern was expressed
that patrons at Huron Hotel,
Kramp’s service station and
lunch bar obstruct the
visibility for motorists
generally and school buses
in particular. The im
mediate neighbouring
municipalities will be asked
to support this in the in
terest of traffic safety —
Hibbert, Logan and
McKillop township, Village
of Dublin and Perth and
Huron County boards of
education.
The board will assist and
co-operate with the Univer
sity of Western Ontario
multi-disciplinary accident
research team in investiga
tion of the recent collision
between two school buses on
May 11 at the intersection of
Oxford Road and concession
10-11.

$12.50 for a single set of
lessons, $22 for a double set
of lessons and $33 for a

Tots lessons are $12.50 for
two weeks.
An adult safety course in
pool maintenance and sur
vival techniques will cost $5
for five consecutive nights.
The wading pool in Vic
toria park will not be
operating this year,barring
an unforseen occurrence,
the board learned.
Armstrong said he has no
intention of operating the
pool due to a lack of use of
the facility and the costs in
volved in its running.
When it was suggested
about the possibility of hav
ing volunteers supervise the
facility, Armstrong said the
town could be liable if an ac
cident was to happen and
qualified personal were not
present.
A request from councillor
Lossy Fuller asking for the
board’s support in staging a
Canada Day celebration fell
upon deaf ears.
Board chairman Bob
Down said ‘‘We’re only a
board,” and the initiative
for such an activity should
come from the town.
Town council had turned
Mrs. Fuller’s request for
such a celebration.
