DASHWOOD Phone 237-3381 or 237.3422 year ago at the Goderich Col- legiate concerning youth working with the mentally retarded. Mr. Hudson's topic this time was on workshops and residences. He is well inform- ed on the subject being a rep- resentative for the Ontario Association for the Mentally Retarded. With the large influx of young people coining out of over -crowded institutes very capable of going back into communities, workshops for employment and residences for living in away from home, are vitally needed, It is felt that if such facil- ities could be provided, it would permit additional space in institutes for those who really require hospitalization'. Mr. Hudson pointed out that government is very int- erested in these workshops and residences, as it enables some mentally retarded adults to help themselves. It provides them as well with a well- deserved place in the con -• munity. With some help at the local level and government grants, these workshops and residences can be reality in many com- munities in the province, Mr. Hudson said. A regional meeting for the executive is being held in Clinton, February 15, with all district Associations to be represented. The financial report was given by the treasurer, A. Jenkins. Mrs. Evelyn Carroll report- ed on the workshop activities. At the present time, she said, there are six girls engaged there. They are very active in skating, bowling and other social activities, but they al- so put in many hours of work with great success. Mrs. Bonnie Graham show- ed slides of her senior class on a return visit to Wingham. They were given a tour of the television studios at CKNX and met many television per- sonalties who were familiar to them. The group also went bowling, and according to their chaperones, tallied some enviable scores. Mrs. Graham mentioned that a trophy would be a great incentive to these young people who bowl once a weel at Little Bowl in Goderich through the courtesy of Harry Little, The league involves about 44 people from ages 9 to 27 in Goderich, Wingham, and Exeter areas.

She said the immed- iate problem was to find a suitable person to supervise and to give a helping hand to the volunteers. A nominating committee was formed to obtain a new slate of officers to be sworn in at the annual meeting in March. There will also be a report from the regional meet- ing in Clinton at this time. The public is cordially in- vited to all meetings of the 1oc al Association in the area. Help and ideas are solicited always. In Goderich, memb- ership cards are available at no charge. —0 Collection Of School Taxes Under Discussion (by Shirley J. Keller) The annual question of when to collect school taxes was dis- cussed at Monday evening's meeting of the Huron County Board of Education and a dec- ision deferred until Monday, February 1. "As far as dollars and cents are concerned we benefit from collections four times a year." stated R.B. Dunlop, superint- endent of business affairs. "And so does the taxpayer. " He said it made no difference when the municipalities made their collections but it did make a difference when calcul- ating interest when payments for education purposes were made, John Taylor said members of the board of education must live in the same county as the municipal councils and it would be good public relations to ascertain when the municipal- ities would prefer to make tax collections and make payments to the board of education. "How much does this good- will cost us?" asked Dr. A. Barry Deathe. Dunlop said he had no firm figures except to say that in 1969 when tax collection was made once, interest paid by the school board amounted to about $115, 000. In 1970 when collections were made twice, interest paid by the board am- ounted to about $85, 000. "It is cheapest for all concern ed if collections are made four times a year, " stated Dunlop, "Definitely. " THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 1971 ATTENDS GENERAL COUNCIL Rev Harold F. Currie, chair- man of Huron -Perth Presbytery of the United Church, has been delegated as a Commissioner to the sessions of the General Council of the United Church of Canada, being held in Niag- ara Falls from January 25 to February 2.

Steer This Way BY LARRY SNIDER Since 1900, 260 million automobiles have been built, of which almost 39% are on the road today (most of them on the one you want to travel!). It was also around the turn of the century that the term "horseless carriage" was abandoned in favor of "automobile". Britain's tough new anti -driver -drinking law has caused many women to apply for driver's licenses. Did you know that during 10,000 miles of driving, a set of spark plugs transmits enough electricity to power all the appliances in your home for 15 months? If your brakes squeak when you apply them, the reason could be an accumulation of dust on the drums; or worse, the linings may be worn down to the bare metal.
