I first took over this column, I wrote about beginnings; • well January has got to he full of the most beginnings I know of. For exaimple: it's the beginning of a new year - thank goodness because I deal think we could have packed much more in the last one. It's the beginning of the pain of remembering to write 1981 net 1980 on our cheques. R's, the beginning el back to school for the kids - I heard one mother remark if the buses weren't running because of certain weather conditions she was Walking the little siblings to school. It's the beginning of balancing the cheque book Brd. of Ed. support changes A resolution from the City of Stratford asking that the Minister of Education be petitioned to make changes m the representation on boards of education in the province was endorsed by the Huron Board Monday. The Stratford resolution asked Education Minister Bette Stephenson to make changes so that membership of boards of education more adequately reflects student population and education taxes paid. Representation by trustees is determined by assessment and commercial and in- dustrialussessments are not permitted to be used to dtermine urban represen- tatioin Stratford contends that rural and urban - - — -representation on hoards has been changed because of higher rural assessments - The resolution added that through re -assessment urban representation does not reflect population, student population, or • education taxes paid The resolution came to the board's attention, after it was endorsed by the town of Clinton. Trustee Frank Falconer took exception to the endorsement claiming it reflected on him. "Clinton is just a rubber- stamping copycat of Stratford," he said. "They're sore because they don't think they have representation and that comes back tome.", Falconer, a resident of Tuckersmith Township, represents both the township and town of Clinton. Goderich Trustee Dorothy Wallace said Stratford had the right to , protest their representation on the Perth Board of Education. "Goderich is the biggest centre in Huron County and they may be left with only one representative," she said. "Representation has no relation to the number of • kids or taxpayers." The Stratford resolution has been forwarded to all towns and cities in Ontario. Phoning made easy when the Christmas bills come in - mine never balances anyway so maybe that one doesn't count.

A person can dial without lifting the receiver, and up to 12 telephones, including six outside lines, can be accommodated on the system. So far, says company purchasing manager Brenda Ginty, only about 30 sets have been sold. But it ap- pears that the St. Marysfirm is the first to have one in- stalled. Mr. Ginty Said that Veterinary Purchasing had to change its phone system because it needed more than the previous four -line system it had been using.

It serves about 242 vets and their associates across Ontario and employs 32* people. Have your skin deep cleansed massaged and conditioned and enjoy a manicure FREE!
