In what he said would be last report, Mr. McGavin t the meeting that relativ speaking, education costs SDHS had not increased. 1947 buses had brought in pupils from McKillop and the township paid 5.5 mills to the school. Today 105 pupils at- tend SDHS from the township, but the rate has increased only to 14 mills. During the same period, average salaries have nearly doubled, from $3,970 to $6,962, and the #. number of teachers increased to 17. mated, the same as had been done at Beechwood. They, are hazardous and create problems in snowplowing. Work, too, was his needed on several bad bills, old There was need of consider- ely ing some permanent type road at construction on roads leading In from Kling's gravel pit, he said. 27 It was almost impossible to maintain the roads by ordinary means in view of the hea\ y trucks using them. Referring to contracts for snowplowing, Mr. Stewart sail the township was using a blow- er this year. "The V -type plow has served its day and we need to have something bigger," he said. "We hope after the season is over to be able to compare the two methods to determine which is best." The council has little to say concerning taxation, Councillor Allan Campbell said, as he re- viewed bridge construction. The proportion of taxes available to the township was small, with nearly three-quarters going to the county and for schools, "We get the short end of the stick." Councillor W. J. Dennis, township representative on the Seaforth Hospital Board, told the meeting the campaign for funds for a new hospital was progressing quite well. in . Mc- Killop. About a third of the township had been covered, he said, and nearly $4,000 sub- scribed. Reviewing plans for the new hospital, Mr. Dennis said it would provide for a to- ol, tal of 48 beds, as compared to id 33 beds in the present hospi- r- tal. Provide Opportunity The main feature, he said, is that students .from McKillop are getting an opportunity for edu• cation compared to pupils from other centres. I would rather spend money on educating chil- dren than ,on a ditch we didn't need, he said. Referring to his years on the board, Mr. McGavin said he had enjoyed the work. He recalled that during the first 10 years he had served, there had been no remuneration, but now board members receive $75 a year. Mr. McGavin, in concluding his remarks, didn't indicate whether or not he would be a candidate. Following the meet- ing he said under the circum- stances he would not qualify, since he did not wish to cause an election. Councillor Ralph McNich referring to drain work, sa once a matter had been refe red to an engineer, there was little a council could do or say. He felt the same applied to edu- cation and that school boards, too, were restricted in the deci- sions they could reach in the face of. direction from the De- partment of Education, Mr. McNichol reviewed the mower and dragging work car- ried out in the township dur- ing the year. He mentioned particularly the good job done on weed cutting. "The operator got pretty well to the fences. While it is ex- pensive, it 'is worthwhile when we consider appearance and the damage weeds can do to nearby properties," he said. Eliminate Jogs Councillor Ken Stewart dis- cussed road construction. He said he would like to see all jogs on township roads elim- School-Report (Continued from Page 1) - ing schools have one rural mun- icipality which pays the largest share of their school's budget. As a ratepayer in •McKillop Township I am aware that we have that responsibility in our District High School. On January 1, 1963, the Cen- tral Huron Secondary School will come into being, and on Sept. 3, 1963, the doors to Hur- on County's largest secondary school will open_ Central Hur- on Secondary School plans to offer the five-year science, tech- nology and trades programs. Students who wish to enroll in these programs may do so in Grade 9. If .there ..is any doubt regarding' which five-year pro- gram to choose, students should enroll in their home school. All four-year programs, two-year programs and diversified occu- pational training classes Will be offered at Central Huron Sec- ondary School. A four-year agricultural pro- gram is being offered in the science, technology and trades branch. This program is design- ed for boys who plan to return to the farm after completing four years of secondary school. The right to limit the enrol- ment in any particular course or to withdraw a course from the list' of those being offered if en- rolment does not warrant such course or courses being offered, has been reserved by the board. This will also apply to night school classes, I would appreci- ate hearing from anyone inter- ested in night school, so the class they are interested in can be offered if at all possible. .I am very pleased to see edu- cation changed from saying, "The sole responsibility of edu- cation is to teach boys and girls to think", to a positive approach to the times in which we live and say, "Education fails if it can not be translated into the ability to earn dollars and cents." Our boys and girls in Huron County are the most precious and important part of our com- munity. We now have the op- portunity to offer them the edu- cation at secondary level most suited to their individual needs. Mrs. Govenlock concluded by expressing the hope that a' concluded, ents' nights could be held when "you can go to Clinton and see for yourself what Central Hur- on Secondary School can ac- complish if we give it our sup- port .11 on Wednesday at 2 p.m., with Rev.
