The new schedule, adopted by the school board at its regular meeting, boosts the minimum from $4,000 to $4,500, and creates a new maximum of $8,000. No Alternative Commenting on the increases Trustee E. L. Mickle, Hensall, said: "I certainly don't want to do it, but we have no alternative." "Teachers are so scarce, there isn't much we can do," agreed Trustee Oscar Greb, Hay Town- ship. H. L. Sturgis, principal, had pressed for early adoption of the schedule to forestall any mass exo- dus of the staff. Nine new tea- chers had to be engaged last year. An unfair element of the wage negotiations, said Mr. Mickle,.was the fact teachers would not guar- antee none would leave even if salary demands were met. "We could grant their requests and still find ourselves with 15 teachers instead of 21," he said.

Pair of Villagers Fishing Through Ice at Bayfield Pier Trip to New York Mr. and Mrs. Ross Johnston, ac- companied by Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bennett, London, enjoyed a trip to New York city last week. They also spent some time in Rochester visiting with the former's sister and brother-in-law. Home From Mexico Mr. and Mrs. Ward Fritz, Zu- rich, and Dr, and Mrs. H. Cowen, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 11, 1959 Exeter. have returned home from an enjoyable trip to Mexico. They left about three weeks ago, cross- ing through, Texas. On the way home they spent a few days in New Orleans. They travelled close to 7,000 miles on the entire trip. Mr. E. H. Edighoffer, a patient in Clinton Public Hospital for the past three weeks, has returned to his home, and is feeling much bet- ter. Douglas Gemeinhardt and Jack Fraser, Bayfield, are carrying on a winter fishing operation which brings them about 30 pounds of suckers a day, and sometimes perch, herring or pickerel, besides. Recent mild weather produced a slushy top on the ice, which made walking on the surface un- comfortable, but it was quite safe. The two fishermen have nets strung about 200 feet out from the end of the piers, at Bay- field, and make daily trips to lift them. Jigging for herring has been tried a few times, but so far this spring these fish are not biting. Bait used, according to Mr. Gem- einhardt, is a pearl button on the line. Sitting in a tiny ice house, set over the hole, the fisherman watches down into the water, and when a fish is seen taking the bait, he is hauled to the surface. Heat in Doug's ice house is pro- vided by "summer girl" Coleman heater, the last of half a dozen he once owned. These little heat- ers were once used to great ex- tent by cottagers before hydro was obtained in the village of Bayfield. Nets for the main fishing oper- ation are laid under a strip of clear ice which occurs between ice jams on the lake. During the winter, as the ice forms, it goes out into the lake and comes back again suddenly, forming jams of ice right down to the bottom of the lake. Between these ice jams are strips up to a half mile long where water below is not packed with ice. It is here that nets can be lowered. They are laid "in -and - out" from the lake shore, so that as the fish search up and down for entrances to streams to spawn in the spring, they can be caught. Greatest excitement of the job is the actual pulling up of the nets, when the men watch to see just what they got "this time". Mr. Gemienhardt and Mr. Fra- ser expect to keep on with their fishing for several days, or even weeks yet, depending on the br- eak-up of the ice. During the period of Lent there is a great demand for the fish, and all of the finny creatures are rapidly sold. The demand far out- strips the supply. Other similar fishing operations are being carried out on the lake north of Bayfield, and at Grand Bend. 0 CHURCH DIRECTORY Emmanuel Evangelical United Brethren Church Rev. A. M.
