conditions, holding tanks are
allowed.
"If they are approved by the
county health unit, there's not
much we can do about
withholding the building permit,"
complained Ginn.
Dr, Mills advised Ginn that
sometimes it works the other way
around - with the municipality
issuing the building permit and
the county health unit having
little choice but to issue a permit
for a septic tank system.
"Maybe what we're talking
about here," observed Dr. Mills,
"is a central agency to give out
building permits in the future."
Tuckersmith Reeve Irwin
Sillery said that in Brucefield
there is a lot with an 85 foot
frontage, but the owner cannot
install a new septic system

Black flies affect the health and -
productivity of animals and
poultry in many parts of Canada.
In some , areas of the Prairie
Provinces attacks are severe
enough to kill animals. Between
1944 and 1948, more than 1,300
animals were killed in Saskat-
chewan by black flies.

property is on the property line
and the health regulations
require that a septic tank be at
least 100 feet from a well. He said
that Brucefield does have a
municipal water supply system,
but there is no way to force a
property owner to hook into that
supply.
Dr. Mills conceded that in a
case like that, the owner of the
well could, underpresent
regulations, hold up building on
the next lot indefinitely.
Bayfield Reeve Ed Oddleifson
said in his municipality some lots
are under the required standard
sized lol. He was told that there
will certainly have to be ex-
ceptions to the rule for some of
these lots now in existence but
that in the future, the size for
building lots will become stan-
dard across Huron County.
Rec Centre to open
The South Huron Recreation
Centre will be officially opened,
Thursday, and by the time the
Labor Day weekend is concluded,
it is expected most area residents
will have visited the new facility.
In addition to the official
ceremonies, a full weekend of
'special events is planned, in-
cluding three dances, a bingo,
barbecue and gospel service.
Emcee for the Thursday night
grand opening, to which the
public is invited, will be Carf
Cann,
Speakers on the brief program
will include Huron warden Doug
McNeil, Huron -Middlesex MPP
Jack Riddell, Huron MP Bob
McKinley, rec centre committee
chairman John Stephens and the
heads of the three contributing
municipalities, Exeter Mayor
Bruce Shaw, Usborne Reeve Bill
Morley and Stephen Reeve Cecil
Desjardine.
Representing the minister of
culture and recreation will be
London South MPP Gordon
Walker.
The keys for the centre will be
turned over by Northside Con-
struction to engineer George
Naom, who will in turn present
them to the heads of the three
councils.
A ribbon cutting ceremony will
involve the council heads, John
Stephens and Gordon Walker.
A wine and cheese reception
will follow the official opening
and after that, the Walter
Ostanek band will commence the
special events for the weekend.
A monster bingo is scheduled
for Friday, while Saturday's
program consists of a dance with
the band of Tommy Dorsey.
On Sunday, a barbecue and
gospel service will be held and
the weekend activities conclude
on Monday with the rock band,
Liverpool.
Members of the rec centre
board of management and the
building committee met with
officials of the engineering and
contracting firm on Friday and
were advised that the building
will probably not be completed
until later this fall.
It had been anticipated that ice
would be available by October 1,
but that now appears doubtful.
The contracting firm
representative indicated it would
take over three weeks to have the
boards erected, and with the time
lost due to 1 official opening
and the upcoming fall fair, said
he could not envision ice until
near October 15.

It's a very easy system, and most
countries around the world already
use it. Ontario anc' other provinces
are adopting it under a Canada -
wide plan approved by Metric
Commission Canada.
Speed limits are measured in
kilometres per hour (km/h). Dis-
tances are measured in kilometres
(km) and metres (m).
One metre is approximately the
length of a long stride. One kilometre
is 1000 metres or 5/8 mile (0.625).
(One mile =1.6 km)
An easy way to familiarize
yourself with kilometres is to consider
the time factors involved—for
example, 80 km (50 miles) would take
about 1 hour to drive at a speed of 80
km/h (50 mph).
Study the signs shown here and
you'll get the picture quickly.
To learn the system faster,
"think metric"—don't convert back
to the old Imperial unit of miles. And
to measure your gas consumption in
kilometres per gallon, divide the
number of kilometres travelled by the
number of gallonsused.

tive booklet "Ontario Roads Go
Metric" from any Ministry of
Transportation and Communications
office or LCBO outlet in Ontario.
