The Stilt reply was from Port Elgin; Superintendent Ken Saxton "told the commissioners that Pott Elgin does not have a. set charge for new installation" for subdivisions. He said that each individual subdivision's costa are assessed separate'y ,. Howevser, the letter did mention that the cost for installations in the most recent development had been assessed at $500 per lot. The superintendent pointed out that the cost here could be double that because of the difference in the soil base in the Wingham area. Iiti. • Port Elginthe soil is predoniin- antly sand -based while here there is a stronger clay base. The second reply, which was from Kincardine, also strewed the fact that burial conditions �>ie the area are excellent in Kin- cardine. n.cardiine. However, they informed the Wingham PUC that the town" has a bylaw which requires all developers to install underground hydro services. The Kincardine PUC then breaks down the difference between the cost of overhead servicing and underground ser- vicing on a one third -two thirds ratio with the utility paying the lesser portion. The PUC also does the actual installation work. Commission Chairman Roy_ Bennett suggested that because the soil conditions here are so differentfrom the areas which have replied to the commission's request for information, the cost for making such installations should be assessed to give the PUC some idea of the outlay they are dealing with. Superinten- dent Saxton thought that' rather than pinning down a cost, the. ,utility might betetter off settling on a percentage basis. He suggested that due to digging conditions the PUC might con- sider' on-°siders,a a4/a'breskdiAwn in cost with the deve%peir paying the largest portion.

L. aD According to reports from the tobacco industry brands have played musical -chairs since the airwaves' ad ban. One older menthol brand has crept much higher in the sales list with its ad campaign to "Come All the Way Up." This pitch, says the report, fits in perfectly with young people's desires for intense experience. Increased sales have come from young . adults and. blacks. A new brand has made great headway with its image of a rugged, freewheeling guy in denim with his bags all packed. The ad says the cigarette is "wide open flavor through a filter for the guy who wants it all." Feminine, flowered cigarettes and pitches to babies who've come a long way are boosting sales for the opposite sex. Smoke and be hip, right there. 1 One intriguing analysis of in - Creased sales, however, comes from a tobacco executive. Whereas the ads link youth with lots of pleasure, this executive said the most important factor stimulating sales of cigarettes in the past three years is stress, There are now a larger number of adults between the ages of 20 and 44, he said, the age group that encounters the greatest amount of personal stress. "These people are starting jobs, adjusting td the work climate, getting married, buying homes, and raising children. It all results in more cigarette smoking." The Christmas Seal association said quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for yourself by seeing beyond the ad brainwash.
