The new Ontario Child Welfare Act requires that professional persons who work with or who treat children must report suspected cases of child abuse to a Children's Aid Society. That's the law. Reporting suspicions of child abuse is one of the best ways to help prevent child abuse happening again. Child abuse is everyone's concern. Teachers, doctors, nurses, social workers -all persons who work with or who treat children -need your active support if they are to keep children from being abused. The professionals need your assistance. You're part of the solution. To find out more about child abuse write for our free booklet, "YOU AND THE ABUSED CHILD".

There were five accidents investigated by the Exeter police department this week, including one involving the town's new garbage packer which went into service last week. It was involved in one of two of the accidents which occurred on Monday. The truck -was being driven my Ross Mathers and was pull- ing onto Main Street from Nelson when it collided with a car being driven south on Main Street by Claudette Doiron, Hensall. Constable George Robertson listed total damage at $700. The other Monday crash• occurred at the intersection of Main and James Street when a vehicle driven by Margaret McClure, RR 1 Crediton, backed into a car driven by Garry Cottle, RR 1 Woodham.

This song-writer folk-singer is touring southwestern Ontario promoting his nationalism. He'll be giving his lively audio-visual and musical presentation at Exeter Public School next Tuesday, (March 18) at 2:00 p.m. The concert is sponsored by the Outreach program and the Midwestern Regional library system with help from Huron, County library.

There was no damage to the McClure vehicle. On Sunday, a car driven by Leonard Davis, Lucan collided with a parked vehicle on William. Street, the latter vehicle being owned by James O'Toole, Exeter. Total damage was estimated at $900 by Con- stable Kevin Short. Minor damage was reported in a Friday collision when a car driven by Kathryn Sleaford, Hensall, struck a car parked at the Zehr's lot. The other accident oc- curred on Thursday, in- volving vehicles operated by Albert Edward Smith, Huron Park, and Margaret L. Herr, RR 1 Woodham.

His presen- tation is called the Ballads of Canada and he has an album out by the same name. Wiz says he's singing about the folk, heroes of Canada. He immortalizes such Canadians as Tom Thomson, Pauline Johnson, Louis Riel, Grey Owl, Sir Wilfred Grenfell and the Nova Scotia Bluenose in his songs. If you don't recognize some of those names, then you're just the person Wiz wants in his audience. He believes that optimism and a loyalty to Canada are the first steps to building a solid future. rec centre. Boyle Said he didn't know whether Gower had donated but Pyin said later in the meeting if he had to hazard a guess, the Usborne welder did con- tribute to the fund. The Unofficial meeting then turned its attentions to other activities, until the arrival of Usborne represen- tative Ann Prout which enabled the board to conduct an official meeting. Boyle then proposed a mo- tion which called for the awarding of the contract to MacGregor, The motion then died on the floor when no seconder could be found. Jerry MacLean told the board he would, have no qualms in hiring either of the two gentlemen but that the contract should go to people who donated to the centre. Boyle added that the contract should be awarded' locally. Opposing the awarding of the contract on that basis were Prout and Exeter councillor Don Cameron. Prout said the name of the facility was the South Huron Rec Centre and not Exeter Rec Centre. Cameron added he "just couldn't see how they could ge_the other way (from Gower's price)." Smith opined that "If it gets down to brass tacks, "all other factors being equal, the contract should be awarded to the lowest bidder." Sounding somewhat an- noyed, Boyle told the board "You don't have to agree with me." Cameron then proposed a motion which called for the board to go with the lowest tender. It appeared for a moment that this motion could die with Prout finally giving her support. Pym was met with silence when he asked who was in favour of the Cameron mo- tion. In a surprising move, Boyle changed his mind and supported the motion. . On the question of mileage for centre employees no decision was made with the board appointing Prout and Boyle to look into the matter. As a result of a meeting with his staff, Smith suggested to the board that he be paid $20 per month for in-town driving and the town rate for out of town driving. Smith is presently receiving a flat $500 per year for mileage. Facilities manager Alvin Willert had requested an in- crease of $100 per year for mileage, upping his yearly mileage allowance to $580.
