'rhe month of August is to be devoted by the conversion crews to work at Grand Bend and other summer resorts along the lake- front. The conversion plan has been arranged so that the crews will be in Grand Bend when cot-' tagers will be there on vacation. and the greatest possible number of property owners will be on the spot to co-olierate in the conver- sion work. For the same reason, the in- ventory of electrical appliances that has' to precede the conversion is to be done at Grand Bend just before 1 h actual conversion, in- stead of several weeks before, as at other peaces. At Grand Bend the conversion d rectors plan to use one hulinay month, July, for in- ventory, and the other holiday month, August,•for conversion. At any other time of year they would find mar,, Grand Bend hydro users absent, and their cottages locked. Once the work at Grand Bend has been completed, the conversion effort is expected to be directed to the rural lines in • the northwest corner of the Exeter rural operat- ing area, in and around the ham- lets of Zurich and Dashwood. The first week of September will prob- ably be devoted to conversion in the Zurich -Dashwood area. The Clinton area is scheduled to be converted starting early in Sep- tember; Goderich, and then Mit- chell, are to follow Clinton. • Father (to ,five-year-old who'd complained a boy had hit hits) "Did you hit him back?"
