Clinton News-Record, 1980-05-08, Page 3Hope for entire system Hullett gets integrat BY CAM WOODEN The Huron County. Board of Education got one step closer to its goal of .,controlling the entire bussing system for all Huron County schools at its May 5 regular meeting.

The words and their meanings are complete opposites.. One is sweet and tender the other is loathsome and mean. But it's not quite that simple and I've discovered a strange common link between the two words. My discovery had it's beginnings in a Somewhat mediocre column idea. I had begun writing about lists, of things I liked and disliked, but I soon found that that things I'm fond of are also the things I despise. Here, this is a good example. Take your basic, rich, moist, dark chocolate cake, I love it. Yet I also hate the stuff. It makes me fat and I break out. Then there's sleeping. I'm sure I could do a great Rip Van Winkle impersonation and comfortably doze of for years and years. But, you know, I hate going to bed. I'll prop myself up in front of the television.... half the-, night,:' with one. eye open and one half shut. I hate giving in and hitting the old sack, it seems such a waste of time. I like my job, but I can't stand working. I love- spending money, but I hatebeing broke. It's• nice just - to be alone sometimes, but I hate the thought of loneliness. It's a mysterious connection, something psychologists could figure out I suppose. The examples are more than mere coincidence and there seem to be endless lists. I hate soppy, mushy romance, but I watched. Love Story and cried. I love. music and dancing, but you wouldn't catch me doing it in public. There's nothing nicer then hearing birds sing, but I hate it when they start tuning up at five in the morning. Hullet Township students attending the Central Huron Secondary .School, the Clinton and District Christian School and the Mullett Central Public School was accepted by the board. Students will all, be bussed into. Londesboro" where :}Juliet Central is located and those that have to go tai. Clinton schools will be express bussed there," This will make it 'possible to .eliminate one bus and save" $5,1/Q0 a year. 'Hullet nQW ioins Usborne shelley by mcphee d bussing I love heariinj from_an old friend comislaTn That I don't get enough letters. Perhaps the reason my mailbox is always -empty is .because I really .don't like writing Tetters, just like receiving them. After years of seemingly unfair parental pressure I'm enjoying the freedom of living on my own, but now I sort of wish mum and dad were around a little more. It would be so much easier if mum could wash my clothes and dad could keep my car in shape. I want to be skinny, but I hate dieting. I hate violence and crime, but I squirm with excitment when I watch a good scary detective movie. I don't cope very well when I'm criticized, but I' find it easy to hand out judgements on others. I love compliments, but I don't like getting them. They make me blush. The comparisons between my likes and dislikes could go on and oon..., I.. figure that the reason why I like and dislike manyof the same things is because I have few firm convictions.. , • Not having a strict opinion on many thoughts does not mean I'm a disinterested, human. Some might call me insincere or label me a traitor because of my see -sawing attitudes, but in truth my feelings are the complete opposite. I spend a lot of time thinking about things, from chocolate cake to violence and usually see the pros and cons in each subject. Often I end up confused, deciding. which is wrong and which is right, which is good and which is not so good. But I'll remain the way I am. I'd rather unsteadily sway .back and forth on the see saw, ahead of sitting on the ground, passing perfect "I'm right, you're wrong" decisions in a closed -minded, conservative fashion. it only comes once a year...a gift from Anstett Jewellers tells Mom "I love you" all year round See all our gift ,ideas...diamonds in every setting imaginable...gold jew- ellery...watches by Bulova or Seiko...charms, pen- dants, silverware, Royal Houlton figurines, crystal.

Seaforth area in the integrated bus system. . In the same recommendation to the board the committee stated that the board should drop the idea of corn-'' bined bussing for Stanley Township. (The students involved attend high school in Clinton and Huron's Cen- tennial Public School at'Brueefield.) "We went over every route and no, matter what we do, we won't save a mile,", said trustee R.K, Peck. He explained that the Bayfield River makes it a more difficult township than Hull et. Trustee John Elliot said he could not accept that part of the recom- mendation and stated that "if it works in Hullet, vghy not Stanley? Why not bus tlien bus the•high.school students on to Linton?" As a result, the board suggested that the committee look into the matter again. "' Another section of the recom- mendation also came under the board's questions, but was grudgingly passed. It stated that "the present arrangement whereby the Clinton and District Christian School settles its financial responsibilities for such transportation directly with the bus contractor be continued." Elliot again protested, arguing that, "if the Huron County Board of Education is _going to establish co- operative bussing, then it should control the paying of the contractors.,... Thereshould be no private deals." This triggered a discussion among trustees who said that the whole county should have integrated bussing now rather than doing a bit at a time. Trustte Herb Turkheim said that Kent County Board of Education controls the bussing for all the schools • eluding the Christian schools and . oman Catholic schools. "They save a lot of dollars." Trustee John Henderson reminded him that the separate schools here "just won't go along with it, so why not let the Christian school settle their. bill with the bus contractor without us?" "Well, it's time to approach the separate schools 'again. It will save everybody money," said_ trustee B.P. Morin. ,"But we can't do all of this at once. It's no time to• be rash." You don't have to be a student to take part in Education Week or the National Book Festival. For Indstance, Mrs. Edgar Rathwell of Vanastra is still taking part in the learning process by researching her family history at the Clinton Library. Reading is an excellent way to learn new things and now is a good time for everyone to start • from page 1 The switch to an automated system here could leave a gap in weather information from Sarnia to Wiarton. The Mount Forest office has been automated but is also staffed however, " weather varies between here and there. With an automates system in- formation could be obtained by calling Toronto, London, Sarnia or -any other area weather station but the informati9p may not be up to date or of ay'benefit to boaters -or aviators. Goderich council has a plan for a new airport terminal in the works and it includes space for a weather office, What will happen to that is not yet known. A group of concerned aviators have voiced their intention to petition MP Murray Cardiff to bring pressure on the Ministry to keep the station open and staffed to provide current weather information. Ifthe station is needed here that appears to be the route to go. With the value of your furs soaring...
