In at least three cases, expansion of voca- tional training is involved. Goderich district Collegiate, ' in a „proposed 1967 addition, is "switching to a vocational pro- gram"—cost, $1,027,546, with , debenture issue of $400,000.00. Exeter's vocational addition was estimated last July to cost $1,- ' 851,814, but Elmer D. Bell told county council "it would not he realistic to believe we can build it for that today." Clin- ton, which has 37 classrooms and eight shops now, is to have an addition costing $467,120. Seaforth plans a 16 -room school to replace one of 12 rooms. Wingham intends to increase capacity from 970 to 1,310 stu- dents. County appointees to these boards reported at the Novem- ber session under a new plan. They brought completed ques- tionnaires provided by the coun- ty clerk, and every councillor had a copy. Thus was achieved uniformity, an opportunity to make comparisons a n d to ask intelligent questions. Who thought it up was not divulged, but it may have been Warden Webb. It was so uniformly ap- proved by the representatives and so effective in council that Reeve Duff Thompson, of Clin- ton, proposed a similar plan in connection with the county's appointees on, hospital boards. One question asked was re- garding the spread in cost of bus transport per mile. It rang- ed from 33 to 46 cents. This led to an enquiry by Reeve Wilmer Hardy. Colborne, as to whether any schogl boards own and operate their own buses. "Regardless of the eventual Couple Move to Town On Saturday evening neigh- bors of the 6th and 7th con- cessions of McKillop gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Kerr, in Seaforth, to honor them on their recent retire- ment from the farm. An address was read by Mrs. J. Hillebrecht and a mirror was presented by Mrs. Aaron Jantzi. The evening was spent play- ing cards, with prizes going to: ladies' high, Mrs. J. Connolly; low, Helen •McKercher; men's high,, Joseph Connolly; low, El - din Kerr. comparative cost," said Elmer Bell, "we are just not in posi- tion to raise the capital involv- ed. and not likely to be for some time." Reeve Robert Gibson, of How - ick, reported that Palmerston secondary school board owns its buses. and thus controls the drivers. One bus is turned in annually. Howick rents from the Palmerston board. Clerk:treasurer John Berry tossed in a mention of failures in Grade 13, and in the re- sulting free-for-all Wingham District High School received bouquets for a statement in John Brewer's report: "84% of the papers written by Grade 13 students were above 90%. Our students won one Ontario schol- arship, a University of Water- loo entrance scholarship, two Leonard Foundation scholar- ships, and one Huron WI schol- arship." Russel Kernighan, of the Goderich board, said it was possible for a principal to "make sure' the worst pupils are gone before graduation time.' '''We should be seeking the excellent in results, rather than the plant, the amount of chrome or 'football grounds," said Reeve F. A. Clift, Bayfield. "You should ask principals to indicate in the report what he considers the improvement fea- tures." "Provision should be made for those who cannot keep up the pace, to get their education more slowly and possibly more thoroughly," suggested Reeve Clifford Dunbar. "As long as they don't drop out, they are at least learning,„". said Reeve E. Talbot, Stanley. "One reason for dropouts," pointed out Reeve Tom Leiper, of Hullett, "is the requirement for labor on the farm." "I understand," said deputy reeve Robert Squire, Goderich, "that a majority of (Grade 13) papers re -read received pass marks." "A lot below 50 had papers re -read and got to," said Mr. Church Groups NORTHSIDE UNIT ONE Northside UCW of Unit One met at the home of Mrs. H.
