Expenses retroactive
Concerned about its
members having enough
money to cover the costs of
attending conventions,
Tuckersmith Township
council postponed setting the
amount paid to delegates un-
til after they return from
their first convention.
At that time they will
make it retroactive to the
first of January. Last year a
member was paid $75 a day
for hotel and meal expenses
but with mounting costs this
is not considered enough to
cover these in 1981.
From February 8 to 11
four delegates from

Girl's Floor Hockey
On Friday the Stephen
Central girls floor hockey
team played in a tourna-
ment. It was held at Exeter
Public School. They played
five games in which they
won two and tied one. They
played against Zurich, Hen-
sall. Exeter, Usborne, and
McCurdy and placed third.
All teams played well. -
Stephen Anderson
Boys Floor Hockey
While the girls were
playing in Exeter, the boys
floor hockey team travelled
to J.A.D. McCurdy School in
Huron Park. The first place
team was Usborne and
Stephen came in second. It
was a very successful tour-
nament. - Jerry Lamport
Bake Sale Successful
January 22 the grade
sevens held a successful pop-
corn and bake sale. We made
$69.55. We would like to
thank the grade 7's who
brought goodies to sell and
the people who bought them.
Thank you. - Heather Brow-
ning
Winter Carnival
In late February, Stephen
Central School is having
their annual Winter Car-
nival. The events will be
sawing logs, skiing,
snowshoeing, piling snow,
and a refreshment booth.
There will be a draw for a $5.
cash prize. Here's hoping
that the weather is nice! -

Hewitt
Science Fair
A, special up -coming event
is the Science Fair. There
will be many different topics
of Science entered. It will in-
volve grades 5-8. This will be
held in late February and
prizes will be awarded to the
winners. We hope many will
participate. - Jack
Fitzgerald
Tuckersmith will attend the
Rural Ontario
Municipalities Association
convention in Toronto -Reeve
Robert Bell, councillors
Robert Broadfoot and James
Papple and clerk -treasurer
Jack McLachlan.
The next convention will
be the Good Roads conven-
tion at the end of February.,
which will be attended by
several members of council
and their wives.
It was on the agenda for
council to set the stipends
paid to members of council
but this was postponed along
with convention money.
Deputy Reeve William
Brown stated he was
satisfied with the money
($300 a year plus $45 per
regular twice monthly
meeting) paid last year, that
he was receiving
Councillor John Brow-
nridge said because he was
new on council he was not in
a postion to know whether
the money ($300 per year
plus $40 per regular meeting
twice a month) he would
receive would be enough.
Reeve Robert Bell said he
would be satisfied with the
$500 per year paid the reeve
last year, plus the $55 paid
for each of the two regular
meetings per month.
Councillor Robert Broad -
foot's suggestion was
accepted that the discussion
on convention money and
stipends be left until after
the ROMA conventon.
Ervine Sillery, who
represents the township on
the Ausable-Bayfield
Conservation Authority,
gave a brief report on the
authority. He said the
township is not affected too
much by the authority as
most of the money is spent in
the southern part of the
authority area - Ausable
Creek area.
Deputy -reeve Brown ask-
ed Mr. Sillery about the
work that was supposed to
have been done in the
Egmondville bridge area to
clean it up by employees
of the authority. The deputy
reeve called it "a real
eyesore".When Mr. Sillery
was unable to report on
this. road superintendent
Allan Nicholson said that
one day some workers arriv-
ed unannounced to do some
work but left early and never
returned or reported. He
said. "The Authority owes
us time on this project."
Mr. Sillery spoke about the
assistance program offered
by the authority on minor
erosion control projects with
technical expertise and
financial assistance cover-
ing 50 per cent of the cost up
to $1.000, helping to imple-
ment projects such as grass-
ed waterways, retorestation
on farm land to combat wind
and water erosion and as
windbreaks around buildings
and fields and to increase
the water holding capacity
of the soil.
Two new councillors
attended a recent seminar
for newly elected council
members -John Brownridge
and Jim Papple. They
reported that they were told
that a council should have a
policy book and a by-law
book for the information of
all members of council and
especially new members.
They were told that a map of
the township would be help-
ful with drains marked and
other information included.
Councillor Brownridge
suggested that Karen
McEwing, director of the
Vanastra day care centre
and Diane Durnin, manager
of the Vanastra recreation
centre, should report to
council regularly.
He suggested that one at-
tend a council meeting one
month and the other the se-
cond month to keep
members informed and to
answer questions. He
pointed out that the road
superintendent, Allan
Nicholson, attends council
meetings to report to coun-
cil.
Three Vanastra property
owners attended the council
session. Mrs. Nellie Gonie,
Harvey Hammond and
Leslie Graham. They com-
plained about the snow on
Vanastra roads which made
them hazardous for driving,
especially at the corners.
Mrs. Gonie said she had
been stuck three times and
had barely avoided an acci-
dent and asked that a grader
be used to clear the snow.
The road superintendent
agreed.
Mr. Hammond and Mr.
Graham complained about
"a bad dog problem at
Vanastra." Mr. Hammond
the spokesman, said that
some people carried sticks
to ward off dogs running at
large.
He said, "We're not get-
ting coverage, we have dogs
running at large right on the
dog catcher's street, even
his own dog!"
At the request of Reeve
Bell council went into com-
mittee of the whole and the
road superintendent; Mr.
Hammond, the only visitor
left in thecouncilchambers,
and the press reporter had to
leave the meeting for the icy
chill of the corridor.
When the door was finally
opened for us to return we
were told the council had
agreed on action. but council
refused to report on the
committee -of -the whole
meeting.

You Are What You Eat
If you are tired of the cheap, mass
produced breads loaded with ad-
ditives and preservatives, come back
to the old fashioned flavor and
goodness of fresh bakery bread. It
costs a little more but with no preser-
vatives and the finest ingredients it is
a better food value.
"Tasty Nu" bread is baked on the
premises in Zurich fresh daily!
