Board of Education. We have examined the Balance Sheet of The Middlesex County Board of Education as at December 31, 1979 and the Revenue Fund Statement of Operations, •the Capital Fund Statement of Operations and the Statement of Con- tinuity of Trust Funds for the year then ended.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Board as at December 31, 1979 and the results of its operations and the changes in its financial position for the year then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for Ontario school boards applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding 'year.

Unfortunately, within the watersheds of the Ausable and Bayfield Rivers, there are relatively few waterways left that can support productive sport fish populations. Chemical pollutants, manyure and unsightly garbage make many of these natual resources unfit for human visitation, let alone game fish populations. Now there is an organization devoted to the conservation and restoration of such waterways entitled "Save Our Streams." S.O.S., centered in Toronto, has developed an Action Kit which is a self-contained manual aimed at revitalizing the fish and wildlife potential of a river and its tributaries. This Action Kit is now available at the Ausable- Bayfield Conservation. Authority. There are two major criteria to be fulfilled before the Action Kit can be used. Firstly, there must be a willing group of concerned citizens who wish to "adopt" a stream and with the consent of landowners, improve and maintain it. Secondly, they must have the resources and expertise to discharge this respon- sibility effectively. Towards . the latter criteria, the Ausable- Bayfield Conservation. Authority • is prepared to sponsor such an interested group of citizens by donatng the S.O.S. Action Kit towards their cause and providing some technical expertise and equipment to achieve such a valuable end-that being, making the river courses of the • Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority wateshed clean and ap- pealing again. Interested groups and individuals are invited to contact AUsable-I3ayfield Conservation Authority Headquarters, 175 Thames Rd. W., Box 459 Exeter, Ontario, 235-2610, for more • information.
