Planning $160,000 Addition to School Members of South Huron Dist- rict High School decided last Tues- day night to ask seven municipal- ities in the district to approve a proposed $160,000 addition. The extension will include two classrooms, one laboratory, one shop and one cafeteria. Existing cafeteria will be remodelled into two classrooms. With these facilities, the board proposes to offer limited techni- cal training courses for boys and extended cornmercial course to girls. Board members felt this trend toward practical education would meet with general approval throughout the district. Through it, boys will be able to specialize in manual training for two years, then transfer to a more ad- vanced technical school in London, if they wish. The new commercial facilities would allow four years' training in this subject. "The existing cafeteria will be remodelled and become two class- rooms. When the project is completed the entire school will offer normal accommodation for 770 pupils. "The estimated cost of the project including building con- tract, architect's fees, furniture and equipment may be taken roughly at $160,000.00. "Legislative grant for approved facilities will be on an amount up to but not in excess of $125,000. This is the maximum amount upon which the board's percentage for grants will apply. This percentage is not guaranteed but may be var- ied by the grant regulations from year to year." Seven municipalities concerned include Exeter, Grand Berid, Hay, Hensall, Stephen, Usborne and a portion of Tuckersmith. The board proposes to use the new cafeteria as a second gym- nasium in order to provide ac- commodation for physical training which is not now adequate. Some concern was expressed at Tuesday's meeting over the drop in the number of students using the cafeteria. When the price was increased to 35 cents after Easter, number of meals served dropped from around 300 to half that amount. Quite a few students bring their own lunches but an increasing number go down to purchase meals from the restaurant. Members weren't happy about this situation since they suspect the students are buying confectionery instead of wholesome food. One member suggested the board might adopt a policy similar to another school which forbids students from leaving the grounds. Hensall Council Gives S'60 Grant To South Huron .Agricultural Society South Huron Agricultural Soc- iety will receive a grant of $60 from Hensall village council. The Stephen Council Stephen township, council, at its regular meeting last Tuesday, de- cided to install a aavatory at the clerk's office. Freeman Hodgins waited on the council in regards to a by-law respecting the low-lying lands of the township. The council decided to study the proposed plans, General accounts amounting to $125.35 were passed as were the township road vouchers. All members were present with the exception of Councillor Ed. Gil. Bayfield Baptists Burn Mortgage Bayfield Baptist Church last Thursday evening burned their $8,000 mortgage, and now is debt - free. The church will celebrate its fourth anniversary on June 17.

Plans are now under way to building next year. TRY THE WANT ADS, THEY BRING RESULTS grant was passed at the meeting of council Monday.
