The board chairman's ad- viiory .committee was authorized,. at a board meeting in Clinton Monday to ask the executive com- mittee of Huron County Council to meet to discuss setting up the committee. It •would Include elected representatives from each body. The suggestion to form the Co-ordinating Committee was made in a letter to the board by Dr. G. F. Mills, Medical Officer of Health for Huron. Trustee 'Mollie Kunder of Seaforth, chairman of education committee said with the co-ordinating 'committee the board would know ahead of time of new types ' of programs in- troduced into the schools of the county, such as the birth control type of program put into the schools, which she learned of second hand. She said the sooner the board and council committees meet the better. Trustee Charles Thomas of Brussels - said. the Board of Health in Huronis different than in most other areas where the Board covers more than one county or where there are separated cities- or towns. He said in Huron the Health Board is directly accountable to Huron County Council only, and the two boards are in a position to co-operate 'more fully. ... Complaints from •parents of grades 7 and 8 students in Goderich regarding the "distance they have to walk to school to .attend classes at Robertson Memorial School was referred back to the management committee of the board and the academic superintendents of education for •further study. The parents feel it is unfair for some of their children to have to walk more than two miles to and from school. daily in all kinds of weather to get to that school when_ they have Victoria Public School in their area with students up to grade 6 only. Ronald Bushell, representative for the concerned Goderich ratepayers, in a letter to the board last month, stated -that all the children should be bused who have to walk one mile or more one way to school and that while the Huron County: board of education is carrying out a construction program at Victoria School in Goderich "we would like to see arrangements made for the accommodation of grades 7 and 8 to be taught at this school." In his letter, Mr.. Bushell had pointed out at the present time all Separate School children in Goderich who attend St. Mary's School and living more than one mile away, are bused to and from school in the morning, • at noon and after school. "We feel if this can be done for some children in our area, it can be done for all," • he' wrote. R. L. Cunningham, transportation manager for the board, who had looked into costs of .busing these students, advised that the quotedprice from Huron Automotive and Supply, Goderich, is 840 per day for a morning and -after-school route around the perimeter of Goderich (similar to the route followed by the Huron - Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board) or 360 per day if transportation Is to be provided at the noon hour. D. J. Cochrane, director of education,. pointed out if a single bus was used to make the double run morning and night then some students would be deposited at the school long before bell time and then would be late leaving after school. Mr. Cunningham said to use two vehicles the total cost per day was reported to be 380, and Mr. Cochrane said he questioned the extra high cost for this. E. Dayley Hill of Goderich asked how much grant was available and was told 93 percent If below ceiling, but that the 680 figure was above. Mr. Hill said it was- a "fairly hot issue in Goderich" but it is some*ing that should not be confined to Goderich and the management committee should look into other areas across the county where students must walk more than a mile from school. He said' the board would be open to criticism if "we do dif- ferently than the separate school board". Three Field Trips were approved: 20 students, members of the Senior Outers Group at South Huron District High School for an overnight excursion in the Exeter area on January 24- 25, at no cost to the board; about 15 Students, memhers of the Junior Outers Group at Exeter for an overnight excursion to the Hay Swamp on January 24-25 at no cost to the Board; and for 50 grade 8 students at Clinton Public School for an over- night visit to the Maitland Block on January 30-31 at a cost to the board for one supply teacher and tran- sportation. • An allotment of 34,500 was, granted to be used for a seminar from after school on • Thursday, April 3 until noon un Saturday, April 5, possibly at the Sutton Park Inn, Kincardine or another suitable location, to which would be invited all elementary school prin- cipals, principals of schools for the trainable retarded all elementary school vice - principals, trustees and members of the executive council and that secondary school principals and vice - principals be invited after school on Friday to ' the conclusion of the seminar. Approval was given for Mrs. Marion Zinn, Lucknow and R. J. Elliott, Blyth, `to act on the budget committee as representatives from the education committee. The board approved a motion that Clarence MacDonald, Exeter, act on the budget committee as representative froth the Management Committee but rejected a motion that Jack Alexander of Wingham be named to the committee. Mrs. Mollie Kunder of Seaforth first raised the objection saying it was not right for someone to be put on a committee "when they would not be here to attend". Mr. Alexander has been holidaying in Florida since December -and is reported to be staying until March. The management committee was asked to name another member of the committee to act in place of Mr. Alexander. Three trustees were re- appointed to act on the advisory com trittee on Schools for Trainable Retarded Children for 1975- • 76 — vice-chairman Herbert Turkheim of Zurich, Mrs. Kunder and Mrs. Dorothy Wallace of Goderich.

Diamonds were found in India only by ac- cident in the search for gold. The most extensive opening. of mines in -India seems to have occurred in the 16th century. When the famous French jeweller and traveller, Tavernier, jour- neyed through the country in the 17th century, many of the mines were producing vast wealth for the native 'rulers. Diamonds were found in beds and terraces of ancient rock in the Golconda district The next most important area is the Panna group of mines, which is still Producing today. Many of the worlds most famous and large diamonds came from the mines of India. Diamonds were discovered in South Africa shortly before the Indian mines were depleted. In the, mean time diamonds were fqund In- Brazil in 1721. ttie, mot part the Etrazilfati deposit'He in present riverbeds and in terraces above the rivers. Here too, the occurances were alluvial deposits. Present-day operations in Brazil are widely scattered geographically with no signs that the Brazilian deposits are near exhaustian. Diamonds are produced also in Venezuela, Guyana, Borneo and Australia and Rustitt.: In fact Russia is the largest producer to -day outside South Africa. Sources of diamonds have been found and pr produced today in commercial quantities in South America, South Africa, and Russia. The African diamond story began in 1867 when a young child found a 21.5 carat rough diamond. Many of the earlier finds in Africa were alluvial deposits, the same as on other continents, but later finds proved to be vastly different. These deposits were found to extend deep into the earth. The most famous mines in South Africa became known as Dutoitspan, Jagersfontein, Bultfontein, DeBeers, Kimberley, Wesselton-and Premier. These mines today produce much of the world supply along with the alluvial deposits on the Gold Coast, Angola,, Sierra Leone, Ivory Coast, Tanzania and The Congo. ... Continued ...
