Board at its meeting Monday
afternoon, it was the lowest of
twelve tenders received.
Mr. Young Vilr carry mail,
films and packages from the
main administrative office in
Clinton to and between the various
schools in Huron. The need for
the courier service was precipi-
tated• with a requirement to
distribute films to the schools
when the Department of Educat-
ion informed the • Boards of
Education it would no longer
despatch them.
W. T. Langille, Goderich,
attendance counsellor, will be
paid an hourly rate 44,00, an

A policy review committee
report on procedures for Board
Meetings (by-laws) was set over
until the September meeting. ,
Amended policies and pro-
cedures were adopted for three
policies: administration time for
elementary school principals --
all teachers, including princi-
pal's relief teacher, are to be
hired in accordance with one
policy; authority to approve field
trips and excursions-- the Board
should not amend any requests,
but either approve as presented
or refer back with a recorriran;-
dation; wilful damage to school
property - compensation by
pupils-- it was :the feeling of the
Board that the procedure for this
policy should include provision
for involvement of local laW
enforcement agenCies when
damage is of a serious nature
and that the Director of Educat-
ion should be consulted first if
the principal is inclined to prefer
charges against a pupil.

Be extra
• careful 'With
summer food .
Here are 'some rules to keep
ts, summer meal preparation safe:
1. Wash hands before prepar-
ing food and following any inter-
ruptions during food preparation.
Special precautions also should
be observed when handling raw
meat, iish, poultry and eggs.
2. Wash utensils and food con-
tainers in soap or detergent and
the hottest water available,. pre-
ferably in an automatic dish-
washer. wash chopping blocks
and counters before and after
each use. If not properly steril-
ized, these utensils and equip-'
ment can "harbor" harmful mi-
croorganisms.
3. Do not wash dishes used by
pets in the kitchen sink or in
the dishwater with other dishes.
4. Exterminate flies, insects
and rodents.
5. Use separate sponges or
dishcloths for counter-wiping and
dishwashing.
6. Cook food thoroughly and
serve immediately after cooking
or refrigerate. Store leftovers in
the refrigerator immediately or
discard them. Avoid serving
foods containing eggs such as
custards or sauces, and salads
made with mayonnaise unless
they can be refrigerated as soon
as they are prepared.
