First Meeting n Inspector James Kinkead ad- dressed Huron County council last Thursday afternoon and at- tempted to explain some of the mysteries surrounding the prob- able swing to county school boards, now proposed by the government of the province of Ontario. Although Mr. Kinkead wished to impress upon council that the consultative committee's in- terpretations of statements by Premier John P. Robarts on November 14, 1967, had not yet been confirmed, he did assure council that the committee had every reason to assume that the report prepared was generally considered to be accurate. "It is assumed—although this must be an assumption that the boundaries of the proposed school areas will correspond with the county boundaries," said Mr. Kinkead. "Pupils from this county who attend elemen- tary and secondary schools be- yound the county boundaries will continue to attend these schools. Similarly pupils from outside this county will continue to attend the schools in which they are now enrolled. Tuition fees will be paid." The UCW of Zurich United Church held its January meet- ing in the basement of the church. Miss Ethel Gabel, as chairlady, opened the meeting with a New Year's poem. Sing- ing ,of a hymn followed. Scripture was read by Mrs. T. Meyers. Mrs. M. Hoffman offered prayer. A New Year's reading was given by Mrs. M. Deitz. Two pleasing piano solos were enjoyed, rendered by Con- nie Dietrich and Idella Gabel. A presentation in the form of Front Page Challenge was given. Mrs. Deitz, Mrs. Hoffman, Mrs. L. 'O'Brien, Mrs. W. Siebert, the challengers, represented Bible characters. The panel consist- ed of Mrs. Allan Gasoho, Mrs. Meyers, Mrs. M. Brown and Miss Ethel Gabel, with Rev. J. W. Huether as moderator. This proved very interesting. Mrs. M. Steckle presented a very interesting chapter of the study book. A business period, conducted by the president, Mrs. 0. Greb, followed. 0 About People Mrs. Margaret Pfaff spent some time last week with her sister, Mrs. Frieda Keller, of Dashwood. Mrs. Albert Hess is a patient in Victoria Hospital, London. Visitors with Mrs. Myrtle Hey during the week -end were Mr. and Mrs. Jack Shoebottom, Lon- don; Mr. and Mrs. •Jack Francis and family; Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Prance and baby daughter, and Miss Kay Hey. tion in the county for 1967 was $429,515.75, with bridges and culverts costing another $159,- 468.89. Maintenance of roads accounted for $423,880.92, while keeping up bridges and cul- verts took another $10,064.55. Machinery was purchased at a cost of $23;321.83 and the shop at Zurich was built for $44,616.05. Committee pay and bank in- terest ("bank interest being the larger of two by far", added county engineer James Brint- nell)) totalled $36,288,21. In the road report was a rec- ommendation by the committee that Engineer Brintnell be paid an additional $2,000 annually for services rendered. McKillop reeve Ken Stewart told council he had every re- spect for Jim Brintnell but asked, "Is $2,000 a reasonable increase in one year?" Committeeman James Hayter, Stephen, explained the commit- tee had no intentions to play the old game of losing a good man because you won't pay more and then paying more to a newcomer who doesn't know "It is assumed that the coun- ty school board will be respon- sible for all phases of education including direction and all Fu pervision," he continued. "It is assumed that members of the board will be elected. It is fur- ther implied that wards will be established from which a mem- ber or members will be elected." "It is assumed that all con- tracts made by the various boards :for the school year 1968-69 will become the respon- sibility of the county board of education at January, 1969," Mr. Kinkead concluded. "These will include agreements with the members of the teaching staff, the maintenance staff, transportation • arrangements, etc." Accompanying figures show- ed that there were 8,632 stu- dents enrolled in Huron Coun- ty elementary public schools; 1360 children enrolled in ele- mentary Roman Catholic Separ- ate School, and 188 at Calvin Christian School, Clinton. Hur- on County pupils at secondary schools in and out of the coun- ty number 3736. Mill rates for .elementary school education range from nine in Huron County School Area No. Two and Grey Town- ship School Area to 20.65 in the town of Clinton. Debenture debts run from $785,00 in Hur- on County School Area No, One to $110,000 in the town of Sea - forth. In a later recommendation to Council, the school consultative committee suggested that the public school consultative com- mittee and the secondary school consultative committee be amal- gamated to form a county edu- cational consultative committee under authority of the Schools Administration Amendment Act. Council agreed that a by-law be passed to that effect.

"Jim Brintnell is too valuable a man to lose at this stage of our road program," insisted Hayter. There was word in the report as well, of a new needs study to be begun within the next year or so. "Surely this won't cost as much as the last 'one," ques- tioned Grant Stirling, reeve of Goderich Township. ' The ink is hardly dry on that." Brint- nell said he had no idea .of the cost of the project. Noting in the report that there would need to be a slight increase in mill rate for county road purposes during 1969, Carl Dalton, reeve of Seaforth, asked, "How much?" Brintnell esti- mated "less than mill" but could not say just how much less. Auditor's Report A net surplus of $57,358 for 1967 was shown in an auditor's report to Huron County council, read by clerk John Berry. This figure is slightly higher than the 1966 surplus of $34,366. Net revenue last year amounted to $2,151,342.
