Also, with the approach of the Christmas shop- ' ping season, Chief King reminds shoppers to keep their car doors locked or better still, lock parcels in the trunk. He says about 60 thefts last year could have been prevented if people had done this. Very few thieves will actually break into a car to steal, he says. It is important to keep your car locked even in your own driveway, says the Chief, especially if you have a car tape deck, tapes or CB radio. You should jot down the serial numbers of these things or if they don't have serial numbers, borrow the electric engraving pen from police to put identifying marks on them. of years and is moving from his Morris farm to Grey county.

In June, changes in the dietary staffing pattern were introduced resulting in savings of $3,000 in 1979-80 and in $3,564 annually. On the first of October, there was a reduction, in overtime in the laboratory resulting in savings of $1,576 in 1979-80 and $3,151 annually, and changes in evening staffing in emergency accounting for savings of $3,602 in 1979-8Q and • $7,203 annually. • On October 22, there was a reduction in relief in radiology amounting to savings of $5,225 in 1979-80 and $10,450 annually. Not all recommendations were for staff reductions, however. On July 1,1979, there was an increase in nursing staff which will cost $20,000 more in 1979-80 and $45,706 annually. The sixth recommendation from the con- sultan•.s to be approved by the board will produce the greatest savings. Implementation date is November 1,1979.
