Who can apply: Any Canadian citizen, or anyone resident in Canada for one year who intends to live in Canada after completion of studies, may apply for a loan under the Act. An applicant must be enrolled or intend to enroll as a full-time student at an educational institution approved by provincial authorities, and must meet the standards of academic qualification and financial need established by the student loan authority in the Province in which he applies. Amount of loans: Depending upon individual circumstances and financial need, loans up to $1,000 a year may be made, with a maximum of $5,000 during a student's academic career. The Provincial Authority receiving applications and deter- mining eligibility will issue a certificate to each eligible student stating the maximum amount the student may borrow. This Certificate of Eligibility is required before a student can arrange a Government Guaranteed Student Loan with the bank of his choice. Repayment: Interest -Free and Delayed Repayment Period To assist students, the interest on loans during the period a student continues full-time studies, and for six months thereafter, will be paid by the Government of Canada. During this same period no repayment of principalis required, nor will any service charge or fee be payable by the student. Method of Repayment Borrowers will begin to pay interest and to repay loans six months after they cease to be full-time students. The current interest rate to students is 5;A Y. per annum. Normally the repayment period will be five to ten years, Borrowers have the right to repay loans in part or in full at any time without penalty. Life Insured in the event of the death of a borrower responsibility for repayment of the loans will be assumed by the Government of Canada. Where to apply: A list of approved educational institutions in Ontario is contained in a brochure now available at banks, universities and other educational institu- tions. Ontario residents planning to attend one of these institutions should apply directly to that institution for a Certificate of Eligibility. Ontario residents planning to study in other provinces or countries should direct enquiries to: Department of University Affairs, Suite 600, 344 Bloor Street West, Toronto. The above notes are based upon the Canada Student Loans Act 1964 and are for reference only. All applications and loans are subject to the full terms and conditions of the Act.

The Kerwin vehicle, however, is still parked peace- fully on the main street inUx- bridge, having refused to carry its occupants back home. Ever, cars have their bad days, it seems!

Wingham Advance -Times, Thursday, Sept. 10, 1964 - Page 3 Better Housekeeping Is Topic at Council The September meeting of Town Council on Tuesday eve- ning saw a minimum of busi- ness, although the town fathers did take up the best part of an hour discussing the problems of keeping the train street clean, Result of the long discourse was a referral of the matter to the Public Works Committee for further investigation. It could mean that an extra man will be hired to do more street sweeping, but no agreement was reached on this point. Other business was of a min- or nature, with a decision reached to remove the old wire fencing at the ball park, Councillor Wild reported that the fire department has pur- chased a tank for rural fire fighting, but is still looking for a truck on which to mount it. Councillor Williams stated that the Industrial Development Committee had a very useful meeting with department repre• sentatives. Mayor Hetherington said that Burns Ross, consulting en- gineer, has promised to have the sewage survey of the land west and north of the river completed by the end of Nov- ember. He went on to say the main sewage program is nearly com- plete but the contractor ishav- ing some difficulty with seep- age into the lines at several locations. The Mayor also told coun- cil that the Department of Highways will pave the detour for the rebuilding of the Mc- Kenzie Bridge. The detour will utilize the Howson Bridge and will extend from the Foun- dry property around to the ce- metery and back to the high- way on the B-line. George Carter attended council and requested informa- tion regarding the construction of sewers in the Berry Sub -div- ision. Mayor Hetherington said the consent from the de- partment had been reoeived in August and the engineer had been instructed to complete specifications for the new lines. He felt the job would be done this fall. A letter from the federal De• partment of Public Works, in answer to a querie of last rnontl- regarding repairs to the town clock in the post office tower, stated that it would cost $1,200 to repair the mechanism. It intimated that this was too costly, but did not give edunci' any satisfaction as to whether or not the job would be done. Several members expressed the opinion that the clock should either be put in working condition or if this could not be done, than the hands should be removed from the clock face. A by-law closing a lane from Alfred Street which runs north to the PUC property near the river was read for the third time and approved. Five More Children Needlessly Suffocated Five children have suffo- cated and a sixth escaped death narrowly during the past month, inside unused refrigerators. Two of the children who died were Canadian, and three American. The Ontario Safety League again urges anyone with an un- used ice -box, refrigerator or other air -tight chest to make sure it won't kill a child through suffocation, by removing the door. This is a sure and simple method for preventing further tragic deaths of this type.
