In \1('nlOriitn1 OSBORN: In memory of Howard Osbom who died Dec. 7, 1989. Dad, Heroes are regular people just like you. They give instead of take. They act instead of talk. They step forward and do the hard and unseen jobs, to give the best of themselves - measuring their own success not by wealth or comfort, but by the lives they touch along the way. You've lett quite a legacy that we're all so very proud of. You could have written a book (actually mom did). And life certainly wasn't easy but you never let us know that at the time. We never had a lot of money but we always had enough. Little did we know that the evening ball games on the front lawn after chores with us kids would turn you into such an armchair athlete later in life. Wrestling, baseball, hockey - all your favourites. You certainty were more of a teacher than you ever thought you were. You always said you weren't good at speeches but we can all remember some of them. Pretty colourful, short and right to the point. You weren't afraid of your respon- sibilities as a parent. If we needed disciple we got it. Thanks. It's made us honest, hard working, respectful people. With these values and prin- ciples we were ready to raise our own children. Thanks for the sense of humour. It makes a lot of situa- tions take on a whole new look. Most of all thanks for loving mom and keeping us all together. That's what heroes do and you'll always be our hero. - Lovingly remembered by Lenora, Earlan, Karen, Lyle, Pauline, Diana, June, Mary Ellen, Cheryl and Jackie 46-49x 1 cc HUGILL: In loving memory of our father, father-in-law, grandfather and great grandfather Harold Hugill who passed away 31 years ago, Dec. 1, 1973. He had a nature you could not help loving, And a heart that was purer than gold, And to those who knew him and loved him, His memory will never grow cold. - Love always, Doug, Gall, Jonathan and Theresa, Jason, Doug Jr. and Stephanie and great granddaughter Alexa 46-49x1 1 (',II( I' ttt III,IliLs MAPLEWOOD MANOR The residents and staff of Maplewood Manor wish to thank everyone for the overwhelming sup- port of our Christmas Bazaar and Tea.

Brock Sinnamon expressed concem with the quality of snow removal on Dublin sidewalks. Operations Manager Mike Kraemer said the municipality simply does not have the man- power or equipment to do all the sidewalks within West Perth. • Operations Committee Chair and Hibbert Coun. Walter McKenzie said the main core of north/south side- walks in Mitchell (St. George, St. Andrew, St. David and Wellington streets) are done for safety reasons becauselhey are the main arteries to the schools. Downtown sidewalks are supposed to be cared for by the merchants. Sinnamon said he was wor- ried that kids are being put at risk in Dublin when they walk out onto the street on their way to the•bus pickup at the gas sta- tion on Highway 8 in the vil- lage. "It's a pretty lousy excuse to tell parents that, well, we couldn't get the equipment out there," Sinnamon said. West Perth Mayor John Van Bakel said one option would be to pass a bylaw requiring all residents to be responsible for clearing sidewalks in front of their homes and businesses. Van Bakel said people in the community always want things perfect but come tax time, they do not want to have to pay for the increased servic- es. Sinnamon supported the idea of a snow removal bylaw. "I don't think there is any- one in Dublin who would have a problem with that," he said. "Most of them do it anyway." For the time being, the com- mittee decided that the school board should be contacted to see if an alternate pickup spot could be used. Huron - Perth Grade 9s in the lead in math Grade 9 public school stu- dents in Perth and Huron counties are among the provincial leaders in math. The latest EQAO test results were released yester- day and, for the fourth year, students excelled in math. Students did even better than last year, with 76 per cent of academic stream stu- dents meeting or exceeding the provincial standard. That means they scored eight per- centage points higher than the provincial average and five percentage points better than last year. Applied stream students also fared better than the provincial average with 42 per cent meeting or exceeding the provincial standard. Across the province, 26 per cent of applied students were successful. Applied students also showed a vast improve- ment over last year by gaining 12 percentage points. "Our schools are doing a great job with their strategies for improvement, but we rea- lize more work needs to be done, especially with applied - level students. Even though we have made significant strides with these young peo- ple, we must continue build- ing on our local successes," said Patricia Stanley, superin- tendent of education responsi- ble for education. • -:N".•;4.1oaA P4. �.kar+i iitr i.fiN .Aii'i r`��rif�itti �,7w.1 ^, .•�-�W��T.�J IIA�+�.,�Ni 114���`.1fiYl�" ! •�.- ry�'�c' 'i1' Oi: �'�
