'• Start Christmas at Lucan group Seventeen members of the Lucan United Church friendship group met Wednesday evening for a craft mak- ing session for the bazaar, November 29. Donna Van Arenthals followed with a worship service with a Christmas theme featuring "The Child". She saluted the season with a reading of the poem "Velvet Shoes" and by paralleling the life of Scrooge in "A Christmas Carol" to that of the ver- satile writer Charles Dickins who por- trayed many of his own joys and hurts in his characters. Shirley Ryan read poems "A Memorable Day" and "A Christmas Cookie". The scripture reading was "The Christmas Story" as told in Matthew., Donna closed with a Christmas thought. Linda Froats chaired a brief business portion. She reported the pot luck on November 2 had been enjoyed by all with many eagerly anticipating the next. We were reminded of the general UCW pot luck Christmas pro- gram December 3 at 6:30 p.m. Nominations for the executive for the coming year were: Leader: Bev Miller, Assistant leader: Ruth Butler, Secretary: Susan Reese, Treasurer: Willy Yule.

Times -Advocate, November 26, 1986 Page 11A Board: plans review over •E*eter' decision The Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board at a meeting in Dublin, Monday, decided to reverse its decision made at the lasrboard meeting, to turn down star- ting a Beginners Class at Precious Blood School in Exeter. Theproposal for the Beginners Class had been put forward by Margaret Medve, principal of Precious Blood School, where she hoped to have such a class begin in January 1987, and it was defeated in a vote of seven to three. However, at the board meeting Monday night, trustees voted to have the Beginners Class referred to the board accommodation review com- mittee for further study. The Board will send delegates to the Seaforth council relative to their con- sideration to the closure of part of Gouinlock Street.

PLAN WORKSHOPS Enrolment forms for the Ontario Pork Industry Improvement Plan are continuing to flow into the Clinton OMAF office at a steady rate. With enough producers enrolled now, some trends are beginning to develop. Of close to 200 producers so far, about 70 per cent have indicated that they are already keeping monthly production records in some form. This would indicate that the majori- ty of producers will need to spend a minimal amount of time meeting the obligatory production record require- ment for OPIIP incentive grants. As well, it is encouraging to see that the other 30 per cent of those enroll- ed are willing to commence keeping a set of production records in order to meet eligibility requirements. Tome, this indicates that the OPIIP program is fulfilling its mandate. To that end, two workshops have been tentatively scheduled in December for producers interested in trying out the Pork Management 2000 system on their farm. This system is a manual one and can be adapted to be as simple or as complex as the pro- ducer needs it to be. The times and dates are as follows: Friday, December 5, 1:30 p.m. OMAF Boardroom, Clinton and Monday, December 8, 8:00 p.m. Farm Infor- mation Centre, Wingham. These workshops will be limited to 20 people so it is suggested that in- terested parties pre -register with the Clinton OMAF Office (482.3428 or 1-800-265-5170) Andy Sande Pork Advisor, Huron County • Patons Yarns Bee Hive 3,000 assorted bolls 10%-30" off Toys - Toys - Toys Stocking Stuffer Priced Hostess Chips Wide Selection of Only Thurs.

The resignation win be effective at the end of December, 1988. At the meeting the suggestion was brought up that the "Separate" in the board's name, should be dropped. William Eckert, director of educa- tion, said the name is a corporate name and the board can't change it as it must be used on all legal documents. Following a discussion Eckert said be would investigate the possibility of dripping the "Separates' if it can be legally changed.
