Around a two inch snowfall will bring out the West Wawanosh plows. They try to have the roads open by 8 a.m. Normally roads in West Wawanosh are plowed twice a day, however severe weather conditions could necessitate three passes during the day, said Mr. Humphrey. Weekends are pretty well handled the same. Mr. Humphrey said there are winter parking bylaws in effect in his township. All rural road superintendents agreed that people pushing snow from their laneways across the road can leave dangerous drift areas on the road. Those in the habit of this practice should be aware . that they can be charged. 1993 Mary and Russell Chapman, of Whitechurch, celebrated .60 years of marriage during an open house last Saturday.

At its Nov. 1 meeting, trustees approved policy that requires children to prove, with a baptismal record, that they are Catholic. Dr. Brown said 'Ihe policy does not intend to stop non-Catholic children from attending a Catholic school or to get any extra tax money. "We do not wish to be taking taxes that should rightfully 'go to the public system," he said. Dr. Brown explained that, under the Education Act, the public school system is the predotninant school system in the province. As a result; all taxpayers are legally obligated to support it with their taxes. Only Roman Catholics are eligible to direct their taxes away from the public system to the separate system. This policy will not affect noh- Catholics who want to send their children to a separate school. As usual, those children will be. accepted into the system as long as space is available. A family will be charged a $740 fee in lieu of taxes, which is set by the provincial government, regardless of the number of children in the system. Huron/Perth DHC leaps through hurdles with ease BY ANDY BADER What looked like difficult hurdles' to leap through went surprisingly easy. at the initial meeting of the new Huron -Perth District Health Council Steering Committees last week. The two ' steering committees decided on an equal split of mem- bers (10 for each county), the rec- ommended location of an adminis- trative office (in Perth) and the criteria for membership in a little over two hours last Wednesday night at the Mitchell Town Hall. "I think we moved the process along quite well," said Jeff Wilbee, chairman of the Perth steering committee. "I don't think I can be more pleased." Huron Steering Committee Chair- man Paul Carroll echoed Wilbee's comments, calling the decisions made "very gratifying." "It's going to be a real comfort- able ride home tonight," he said. Bob McTavish, Warden of Perth County, proposed that the. new DHC be an equal split of ,10 mem- bers each, rather than an 11-9 ratio, with Perth's greater population giving them the extra member. McTavish felt that "10-10 is a better arrangement....making it work as well as it can." He added that since the DHC is officially' called Huron -Perth (thanks to a coin flip), rather than vice versa, that the administrative offices for the joint health council be located in Perth, somewhere along the Highway 8 corridor. McTavish went on to offer that 4-H NEWS Donnybrook 4-11 The Donnybrook 4-H drama club held their first meeting at the home of June Robinson on Oct. 30. This was - an organizational meeting and the leader, June Robin- son, explained that the books for this club were different than that of the normal 4-H manuals. Some time, was spent discussing how members could add illustrations and other pages to the book. Mrs. Robinson's daughter Janice, ,will also be helping with the club. She has a Bachelor in Dramatic Arts and will be leading in two weekend workshops. The youth leader, Patricia Robin- son, conducted the elections for the executive positions resulting in Heather Robinson as president, Jennifer Robinson as vice, and Charlotte Drennan as treasurer. The secretary and - press reporter positions will revolve. Rollcall was answered by telling whether we had either been to a play or in a play and what it was. Members are to bring a favorite book to read to others, ideas ,for names and cover pictures, and also a log book to the next meeting. A tentative date for the achievement program is Dec. 12 at 2 ,m. A decision was made to put P on a play to show all the different aspects of drama. Mitchell be the site of the office, although he admitted that a sub- committee he chairs didn't have time to properly debate the merits of this proposal. The ensuing vote was passed, with just two dissenting votes. Ken Englestad, of Goderich, said Mitchell would be &logical choice for the office because the town doesn't have a major health facility (hospital) and is fairly central and therefore easily accessible for all DHC 'members. Six members of both steering committees (three • from each county) formed a selection subcom- mittee to co-ordinate the, search for the first DI -IC members. Advertise- ments, press releases, letters te. -county groups, agencies and boards inviting applications and nomina- tions as well as letters to ,municipal government officials inviting their nominations were offered as methods of recruitment. Due to the Ministry of Health guidelines, the new DHC will have membership of 40 per cent health providers (likely eight of the 20), 40 per cent health consumers (eight) and 20 per cent municipal government representation (four in total, two from each county). An information night for prospec- tive members is scheduled for Tues- day, Nov. 30th at the , Mitchell Town Hall. The final submission, as well as a list of proposed inapgural members, will be completed prior to the steer- ing committees last joint meeting, scheduled for Jan. 25., 1994. A district health council is a local health planning board made up of concerned citizens who volunteer their time and expertise. With the assistance of a small professional staff, they plan health care service for their communities. Perth and Huron were the last two counties in the province to become part of the district health council system, when Perth agreed to jour— - Huron on Oct. 26th. Who's been sleeping in my bed?
