Huron County council recently passed a bylaw setting the school districts. County council reviews the boundaries in the year of a municipal election. The boundaries lump municipalities so that, based on assessment, there is equal representation across the county. There is a total of $1.3 billion equalized public school assessment in Huron County. Ibis is divided up on a percentage basis to determine the number of trustees to serve that area. The combined municipalities of Seaforth, McKillop Township and Hullett Township is 10;67 per cent of the public school assess- ment while W ingham, Turnberry Township and Howick Township with 11.36 per cent each have two trustees. John Jewitt and Graeme Craig now represent the Seaforth area while Art Clark and Murray Mulvey are from the W ingham area. All other areas have one trustee. Stephen Township is on its own with 7.96 per cent of the equalized assessment. Harry Hayter is the trustee. The combined municipalities of Exeter and Osborne Township equals 9.81 per cent of Huron's assessment. Clarence McDonald represents this area. Hay Township, Zurich and Hensall Gorn- to make up 7,13 per cent of the � sment base. Dr. John Goddard repre- se the area. Robert Peck represents the combined municipalities of Stanley Township and Bayfield. They make up 7.45 per cent of the assessment. Clinton and Tuckersmith Township com- bined make 7.52 per cent of the equalized assessment. Frank Falconer is the present trustee. ,.loan Vanden Broeck now represents the townships of Goderich and Colborne. To- gether they have a 10.39 per cent share of the assessment, just .28 per cent below the Seaforth and municipalities which have two trustees. Goderich makes up 6.33 per cent of the equalized assessment. Dorothy Wallace is the present trustee from the county's largest town. Tony McQuail is the trustee representing Ashfield and West Wawanosh townships which have an equalized assessment of 8.43 per cent.

Lisa Beuttenmiller, daughter of Bob and Betty Beuttenmiller, of West William Street says the first question most people ask when they find out she went so far north is, "Was it cold?" The answer, she. says, is, "Not really." Next to her trek to the tundra, her favorite part was a small Norwegian town in which she stayed, called Elvrum; about two hours outside Oslo. What struck her most about Norway in general, she says, was its size. "It would fit into Manitoba," says Miss Beuttenmiller. "But it's like a miniature of Canada. To her surprise, she also saw snow there on May 17, in spite of the fact she wore shorts the day her excursion went some 300 miles inside the Arctic Circle. ' • • Her next stop was Paris, of which her memories, unfortunately, are not quite as fond. It was as if the Parisians, she says, didn't "want to talk to us at all. We asked them for directions and they would turn their backs." While in France, she met a girl from the Cleveland, Ohio suburb of Shaker Heights. The girl was a blond, which caused Miss Beuttenmiller to notice something remark- able.' ii ...treated like goddesses..." "Blonds are treated like goddesses (in. Europe)," she says. She also 'found the attitude of French merchants somewhat curious. It was as if they "didn't want our business," she says. "It's not like tourists are going to buy'just bubble gum or magazines," she says. "If you did that in Seaforth, your customers would never come back." Miss Beuttenmiller travelled on a Eurail pass, with hundreds of others doing the same thing wherever she went., "You could spot them from a mile away," she says. Many of her fellow travellers, says the articulate 19 -year-old, had things stolen from them, often while they slept in youth hostels. She knows of people who lost Wallets, passports, purses, food and cash, she says. "I was fortunate," however. She was not robbed 'at all. She also found it interesting that although much of the music and television Europeans consumed was American, most of them knew Bob and Doug McKenzie, the fictitious characters from the Second City Television program, who were "stereotypical" Cana- dians. She also got to do some fishing, and on one outing was 100 feet away from a whaling ship. Above all, she says, her trip was a real education: "I learned more in five weeks," says Miss Beuttenmiller, "than in the past 10 years." r WE PUT IT ALL TOGETHER FOR YOU!!!
