trator. -Roy B. Dunlop, said he
expected finances would remain
within the budget forecast. He
said interest payments ,to fin-
anae borrowings during 1969
would amount to about $115,000
before the year end. Changes in
legislation trk require municip-
alities to redrit taxes' to the
•• boaad quarterly .aii.1 reduce the
amount tfie board will"-require
• to borrow in future years.
.,No decision was made on the
Aaccoustics problem at Central
Huron Secondary School; The
.• board did learn that the car-
peting treatment would be ap-
proximately half the cost of
acoustic panelling but was con-
cerned that the cost of
maintaining the carpeted walls
would. be a factor in the final
decision.
The matter was left in abey-
ance until policy is made re
garding the proper methods to
employ on such expenditures eg.
what jobs must' be tendered and
which jobs can be completed
without such formal preparatiion.

From My Wirido*
— By Shirley J. Keller —
Our mail this morning consisted of
three fliers, two coupons, one letter con-
taining five chances to win $5,000. (I may
already have qualified and the money may
already be winging its way into my mailbox)
and two envelopes with nothing much in
either, one address to Keller and one
addressed to Kleiner.
I don't Icgow whether the mailman
gets tired of carrying those useless pieces
of garbage about in his mail pouch but I
get very weary of finding them deposited
in my mailbox along with my other mail.
But if you think I get upset, you
ought to see my husband storm over a
mail delivery like the one today. '1 tell
you, hell hath no fury like my husband.
after he has sorted through a padk of use-
less mail.
He has even gone so tar as to
write to certain companies and ask them-
'no, tell them - to stop mailing their
#$Veg junk to us. it...doesn't do any good
of course, but it makes him feel better.
Not too long ago I learned how much
it costs for a company to set up for
computer mailing to change an address. It
was absolutely ridiculous. I think itrwa,A
something like $'75.00.
Today my husband started -0(rant
and rave again about"this danged fool
stuff" and warned me he was going to put
a stop to it. 1 mtplained to him what
I'd learned about computer mailing.That
was the wrong thing to say.
I wouldn't.. want you to get the
impression my husband is old'fashioned, •
but 1 can tell you he doesn't take too
kindly to computers. He works for a firm
where cam ptilers- are talikug o ver the book-
keeping System a nd to hear my husband
tell it, you'd think every invoice was
filled with errors too numerous to count.
Now to learn that'computers were
to blame for the mailing mistakes which
couldn't h: easily corrected was just too
much for my darling.
He shouted, "I'm just a number.
yOu know. You're just ,a number. If I
was three and you were one we couia
never be four, you know. These multi-
million dollar contraptions are too#$%01
stupid to add. it up right. We'd never be
Mr. and Mrs. Keller by the computer.
We'd_always be three and one!"
He was probably quite right in his
deliberations but I really couldn't see
what this had to do with our mailbox
muddle.
"It has everything to do with it,"
my husband went on. "To that a$04.82
machine down there I'm Keller on one
envelope and Kieller on another. It does-
n't matter that I'm fed up with it because
there is nothing anyone can do to change
the so called mind of that bucket of
bolts."
Well, he wasn't just right about
that. The address could be changed but
at a great expense.
"Ahha!" shouted my husband.
"That's another story. Computers are
supposed to save us money but as far
as I'm concerned • they cost far more
than they are worth. In the old days if I
wanted an address changed, I'd just write
to somebody and a $50 per week secretary
would take her pen and scratch out the
old address and write in the new. It took
naiboes.,, ut two minutes and cost just a few pen-
,
Of course lie had a point but then
he had to consider the overall per-
formance. Ce0ainly the computer was
much faster than any $50 per week sec-
retary could ever hope to be.
I had him. Gradually his face re-
turned to normal color and his cheek-
bone stopped twitching. The seizure
was over for another time.
"bang fool junk," he muttered as
he stuffed the day's entire mall into the
garbage pail, "I'd rather get bills than
that stuff."'
Well, that's his opinion. Frankly
I'd trade bills fur useless mail any day.
In fact, I'd trade bills for almost any-
thing - except more bills.

Ever,, year this farmer com-

the crops. It was too wet, or
too dry, or too many weeds, or
there was no market or some-
thing. Never anything good.
:then a year came when good"
crops were harvested. Ptices
went soaring and bank accounts
were bulging.
'Pretty good year, you'll have
to admit', a neighbour said.
'Middling', the farther al-
