Teams End Season SaturdayNig Last Saturday was the final bout for the 140 boys who play- ed hockey in the Legion House League., It was a- big day for the boys.

The- present fee of 10 per cent of the winnings will continue on prize money amounting • to - $10 or less.-Winninga over that amount, however, will be assess- ed 20 per cent. A suggestion advanced at the annual meeting , in February called for increases in mem- bership fees, but directors felt that a larger membership fee would tend to lessen 'the num- ber of smaller -exhibitors, whose .winnings might . be less than 410. Instead of making this in - ,crease, directors. agreed to in• stitute a new schedule of entry fees and exhibitor passes. Membership fees will remain at the $1.00 figure, allowing any number of entries to be made at the fair. Membership tickets, to be issued with the fair books early in July,_will be accompanied by one free pass good either Thursday evening or Friday afternoon for one ad- mission only by the exhibitor.

S. Thurlow, psychology lecturer- at Stratford Teachers' College, spoke on "The Normal Child." Mrs. Thurlow, who was in- troduced by Miss Wood, has had a long and' diversified ex- perience in this field. Her re- marks unfolded surprising facts about the complex development in the five basic stages of a child's life, namely: infancy, 2-5 years, 6-8 years, 9-12 or pre- adolescence, 13-15 and adolesc- ence. Mrs. Thurlow stressed that the• basic patterns for life are formed in the first two years and while the all important emotional factor is not inherit- ed but developed, gentle but positive control should be taught at this early age to carry the child through to a well -adjusted maturity. T h e speaker reminded parents to take time to recognize and un- derstand the five various stages of development " and their re- cognizable features, and ' to re- alize that most of the actions we see are natural for the par- ticular stage of growth, and and that they are a necessary experience for the child to emerge as an independent adult. Mrs. Thurlow answered many questions, and was thank- ed one' behalf of the audience by Mrs. Bruce McMillan. .Mrs. William Bell was the parent of the month, and Mrs. Ellis' class won the attendance award.

While- primary schools are holding the line, there,.,•will be a three -mill increase in the Sea - forth District High School rate, officials said. This will bring the rate to. 13.8 mills. The increase reflects a deficit of $15,000 in the 1961 opera- tions. In additions (Metall the cost of alterations to the home economies room will be includ- ed in 1962 costs. Another 'fac- tor is „the annual increment of increase , in salaries totalling $5,600. Adjustments in salary maxima from $9,000 to $9,200, and -,in minima from $5,300 to $5,400, amounted to air addi- tional $1,000. Dr. J. C.

Council acted to bring in the provincial department follow- ing •a, meeting with a representa- tive of the department Wed- nesday. It was indicated the survey would be undertaken to- wards the end of May. R. B. Bradley, who represent- ed the department at- the meet- ing of Seaforth Council and Chamber of Commerce. officials, outlined the requirements to be met in order to take advantage of subsidized housing. A first requirement, he said,, was that the. need for housing must be established, and to this end the Housing Branch of the Depart- ment initiates a survey of the town. The 'survey is conducted in two phases: (a) Discussions with local leaders in the industrial, social and welfare fields to ob=• tain their opinions and provide necessary background informa- tion on housing and wage struc- tures; and (b) determination of the effective demand for such housing by advertising in the local press for persons in need of it. The municipality is ask- ed to bear the cost of advertis- ing. All other costs are met by the senior partners. The adver-. tisement will ask residents who are interested in obtaining ren- tal housing to complete ques- tionnaires and return them to the municipal offices or other designated locations. On completion of th'e"'survey (normally in two weeks), the completed questionnaires are analyzed by t h e Housing Branch. The results of the sur- vey will be presented to the Municipal Council, together with the recommendation on the type and size of 'project re- quired. If, on the basis of the s ey, the municipality con- siders that .rental accommoda- tion is needed, a resolution is required asking the Federal - Provincial Partnership to .con-• sider the construction of a pro, jest of the type and size they deem suitable for the munici- pality. On receipt of a resolution re- questing a rental housing pro- ject, an agreement is prepared for discussion with municipal officials. If satisfaetnry, it is then submitted to the nwnici- pal council for formal approvaL This agreement provides, in general, for the following: (a) Acquisition of the Iand by the Federal -Provincial Part- nership at its own expense; (b) .Planning of the subdivi- sion by the Federal -Provincial Partnership. The plan would be submitted to the local planning hoard and municipat-eouhcflfor draft approval in exactly the same way aswould• apply too a, ptioate aubdiliidex's,_plan�. •
