(continued from page 3) Township will buy 160 tons of chloride again this year for township roads at a cost of $89 per ton from Pollard Bros. Ltd. up from $82.50 last year. Mr. Nicholson said quite a few ratepayers want more of the township roads covered but the budget will not permit the increase. This purchase will be subject tb approval by • Ministry of Transportation and Communications. Diane Durnin, director of Vanastra recreation centre, was told at the council meeting the parking lot would be enlarged by the addition of more gravel'south of the day R care section of the building. Council agreed to ask the councils of Clinton and Stanley Township to allow -a delegation from the Vanastra day care centre to address their meetings. The delegation would include township councillors Frank Falconer, and Robert Fotheringham as well as Karen McEwing, director of • the day care centre and Diane Black, chairman of the centre, 'board. Both Clinton and Stanley Township have decided not to accept their portions of deficits from the operation of the centre. The operating deficits are calculated monthly and billed to co- operating area municipalities on the basis of how many youngsters from each attend the centre. Clinton decided to opt out last month because the town • has its own nursery school: At Tuesday night's meeting of Tuckersmith council, Miss McEwing and • Mrs. Black said they want to appear before Clinton council to explain the value of day care centres and the differences between them and nursery schools. Council will ask Engineer Henry Uderstadt to bring in a report on the Tyndall drain which George Romanik believes caused severe flooding at his trailer park during recent spring rains. Building permit ap- • plications were approved: Robert Sallows and Don Hoffman, Egmondville, new modular homes; Charles Geddes, Egmondville, ad- dition to house; and John Haverkamp, Lot 35, Con. 2 LRS, broiler barn. The salvage yard licence for Bill Brown at Egmond- ville was renewed. Robin Gates of Vanastra attended the meeting to complain about the way the water meters were installed in homes at Vanastra and that council paid the in- stallation costs without having the work inspected for faulty workmanship. Clerk McIntosh said that when the Huron Health Unit was asked to inspect the work they were "flatly told by the county that they would not do it". Deputy Reeve Robert Bell and Councillor Robert Drummond said council was never informed by the homeowners at Vanastra of any complaints they had with the installation of the meters, and rest of council confirmed this. Mr. Bell said, "The in- stallations were spread over a two month period and no one complained to us during that time. Now a month after the meters are installed we get a complaint. Council's hands are tied. How do we police a thing like this? The county health unit refuses to do it." The reeve said that following Mr. Gates' com- plaint to him prior to the meeting, he had asked Dr. F. Mills of the Health Unit to check into the problem. Mr. Gates said, "Everytime my wife does a wash I have to go downstairs and tighten up the pipe as it vibrates like everything." Mr. Gates said he had seen a half-inch hole drilled through siding and not caulked. Mr. McIntosh said he had been informed that a few people at Vanastra had pulled the wires off their meters. Board to help Blyth with Centennial expenses Huron County Board of Education trustees played politics "at the Monday board meeting when a request for Centennial Funds came to the board from Blyth Public School. The request was for a $200 grant for a school reunion in conjunction with the village's 100th birthday this summer. The expenses with which the reunion organizers wanted help were listed and totalled $75 for publicity, $40 for ticket printing, $35 for postage and $50 for display material. i Goderich Trustee Cayley Hill, recalling a similar request from organizers of a reunion at Goderich District Collegiate Institute for the town's 150th celebration of its founding, said that Goderich got one third of what it requested. The organizers asked for $700 and received $200 to be used strictly for postage. • Blyth Trustee R.J. Elliott replied to Hill that Blyth had asked for a realistic figure when requesting their grant. had it for that," "They probabl pumped up to all said Hill. Colborne Truste . • Shirley Hazlitt ,moved that the board give Blyth $35 for postage and the board's best wishes. 116 Elliott . said that as he recalled, the board gave Goderich $200 after a request for $700 was made. He also recalled the grant was being used for postage, coffee, cookies and other similar things. Director of Education John Cochrane looked up the minutes of the meeting where the Goderich grant was discussed and said that the board stipulated that the $200 was to be used strictly for. postage. Hazlitt's motion was defeated and Elliott moved 'that Blyth be given the $200" requested and that the board establish a policy for financial involvement in centennial projects in the future. The motion was carried. Are you part of the human race or just a spectator? -paimam moh? Fitnrrv.'tn u* r heel pai MI" it% rioiw. "They will have to property damage.

He said they select `the books' they wish to use adding there is no prescribed list of books to choose from as there was in Barth's teaching days. Canadians swallow thousands of doses of medi- cine each year. Many of these are over-the-counter items such as cough reme- dies, antacids, laxatives and headache tablets. Play it safe with these readily -available medicines: - Always read the label and follow directions carefully - Avoid frequent use and sec your doctor if symptoms persist - Keep all medicines safely out of reach of children. A suggestion to turn the matter over to the education committee was rejected by Trustee Eugene Frayne, who said ,the subject is one the entire board should be looking at. Frayne said that when situations where "board members.and parents are not filled in enough on what children are being taught it's time it got looked at". Frayne also indicated that he felt the board should hold a special meeting and that. It 6, should be closed to the press and public.
