This will date from February 26, 1977 to October 26, 1977, a period of eight. months.

Trustees are insured by the board when they are on board 'business. Insurance representatives from Stratford, David Reed and John Lawson, said this was possible but to estimate the extra cost it would be necessary to know.. what type of work each trustee was employed. The insurance and finance committee will look into this before next renewal date in October. In other business, mileage allowance paid to trustees was increased from 16 cents to' 18 cents per mile retroactive to January 1, 1977. The board will again this year ask the municipalities in Huron and -Perth to pay the school levies in two in- stallments on June 30 and December 15. Trustee David Teahen questioned why municipalities do not pay _ their school levies on the same dates they collect their taxes such as Stratford which collects four times a year. Trustee Connolly said he felt all municipalities should be dealt with in the same manner and all pay twice yearly. Jack Lane, superintendent. of business, explained that the board would have to have its budget completed much earlier than it does at present in order to get requisitions out to municipalities so that they could -pay in March. ,q John McCarroll of Stratford (continued on page 8A) CLivi s 'Easiefin afriobile Z n'L AND A LOT MORE INEXPENSIVE RIGHT NOW!

GODERICH I worked as a clerk in a discount store, but the last thing 1 expected to be discounted was my wages. We are paid every Friday. This Friday' I not only got my pay cheque, but also a notice that as of that day my services would no longer be required. It seems that business has been bad, and the store decided to cut back on staff. But I think that I'm entitled either to notice or to an extra week or two of pay. Am I right?

Can my lar.4lord enforce the lease against me? Under the Age of Majority and Accountability Act of 1971, the age of majority in Ontario for civil purposes is now 18, where it formerly was 21. This means that you are still a minor. Now, normally a contract entered into by a minor, is not en- forceable against film unless he ratifies it after he reaches the age of majority or unless it is a contract for necessities, Necessities include food, clothing, and -shelter. A lease can be seen as a contract to provide you shelter, and so it is binding, even though you are under age. CHISHOLM'S FUELS & SERVICE 20 ALBERT N.
