principal J. T.,. WoOden
presented a brief on budget
reductions to the Huron County
Board of °Education Monday
night. Parts of the brief follow:
"The principals are concerned
about the effect of the operating
budget reductions, We have
never enjoyed the luxury of
affluence in our supply budget or
in the gencial,M.,school budget,
consequently, the effect of
reducing the budget by 10
per cent and eliminating new
capital as well as requiring the
inclusion of replacement capital
within the overall budget will
have a negative effect on
programmes. '

If you have teenage children who may in
the next decade get married and have
children, it is not too early for you to start
getting into condition. The life you save
may be your own..
I'd suggest a tot of jogging, for a start.
Get your wind together. You'll need-it.
Then you should get your back in shape.
Practice leaning over a bath-tub until you
can do it for 10 minutes without a stitch or a
twinge.
Next, you should work on your arms and
shoulder muscles. I suggest you buy a baby
cot and a high chair.Then get hold of a
large plastsic bag and fill it with 25 pounds
of sand or old iron. Nails might be even
better.
Now. Put the bag of sand in the high
chair and practice hoisting it out until you
can do it 10 times in a row without puffing.
Do the same with the baby's cot, with the
sides up.
This is only a facsimile, of course, not
the real thing. One hopes that the bag of
sand will not be struggling, or screaming
that it doesn't want its bib on, or doesn't
want to go hye-byes.
Next, put" on your winter clothes, tuck
the bag of sand under one arm and a 20 lb.
bag of groceries under the other, and
practice walking out to the car with them,
over the slippery sidewalk,. If you see a
dog or cat or kid, you must stop and•look
for a‘suitable interval, saying: "See the
nice doggie," about eight times.
If you followed this regime for five years
or so, you might be physically able to cope
with a lively two-year-old- grandson or
daughter. I wish someone had wattled me,
We're into our third week with Pokey,
and we're getting a bit tattered around the
edges.
When I was a y oung father and had
young children of my own, for some reason
I didn't get so exhausted.
Of course, then, I didn't get home from
work until about 6.30, The kids were fed,
bathed by their mother, and I told them
their bed-time story. There was nothing to
it.
Nowadays, I get home about 4.30, and a
little demon hurls himself at me. He's just
up, refreshed, after his nap,'and I'm a little
pooped after coping with the life styles of
150 adolescents, It's no contest. •
I'm beginning to have the, deepest
sympathy for y ouiig mothers. With one
child, it's about a 16-hour a day shift. With
several Young ones, it's got to be the
modern answer to the Chinese water
torture.
Now many of you old-timers have tried
recently to get an infant into one of thbse
winter snowsuits? The boots won't go
through the legs, the zippers won't zip.
Yesterday, I spent eight minutes getting
one leg in, and for once the zipper worked.
I straighteped up to draw breath and ease
my back, looked down with some satisfac-
tion, and saw to my horror that the child's
leg was in the wrong leg of the snowsuit.
Back to scratch.
Sunday, there was a fresh fall of snow,
and I thought I'd take Pokey for a toboggan
ride. After the usual ordeal of getting him
dressed, I was sweating and puffing. He .
was calm and keen to get going.
Unfortunately, our house is surrounded
by hills. If you start off downhill, you'll be
going uphill on the way home. I was smart,
I tackled the 'steepest hill, going up, so it
lek,uld be easier, downhill, on the way
loaCk, when I'd be tired.
Oh yes, I was smart. Near the top of the
first hill, an elderly lady, out shovelling her
snow, remarked: "Well, you must be a
devote d grandfather. I've seen men
pulling kids on a toboggan before, but I've
never seen one doing it on his hands and
knees, pretending to be a sleigh dog." I
wasn't pretending.
After three blocks, all uphill, we hit the
road home. I didn't know, by this time,
whether I. was going up, down, or
sideways. I was lathered in sweat and my
knees were trembling like a virgin's on her
honeymoon.
If you're wondering how your heart is,
take your grandchild for a toboggan ride,
preferably with long patches of bare
sidewalk covered with sand. By the end of
it, you'll either be dead, or you'll know
your ticker is in pretty good shape. •
But the outdoor games are mild
compared with the indoor. At least, when
he's swaddled in a snowsuit,-he cant move
much, All he could do was yelli "Go
more!" every time stopped, gasping.
Ipdoors, he's a living, breathing mobile.
Favorite game is to line up at the other end
of a 30-foot room, run as fast as he can,
chortli ng fiendishly, and hurl himself
head-first, into my stomach.
On SAturday mornings, I like to read the
book reviews in the daily paper. Last
Saturday, I spent four hours trying to read
a six-paragraph review. In between I was
changing records on the record player,
which must be playing simultaneously with
the tape recorder, fetching drinks of juice
and crackers with peanut butter, hoisting
him onto the pot (he's too busy to be
bothered), helping him build a train., trying
to keep him from pulling the cat's tail and
60 or 70 other things.
No wonder he likes it here. H e's like a
little prince, -with 'two serviledgattendants
who leap to cater to his every whim.

Trials of old age
We accept the first 10 per cent
reduction but . , austerity in the
areas of supplies, capital
replacement and capital addition
will result in our schools inability
to carry on programmes involving
equipment which has a relatively
short life span unless a regular
replacement programme is
maintained. The principals are
concerned that the n ew
budgetary restrictions have been
imposed in the middle of the
current school year when it is
virtually impossible to make
changes in programme.
We suggested that with the 10
per cent reduction and the other
restrictions already pro posed we
are, facing an approximate reduc-
tioin of 28 per cent. If inflationary
trends continue the actual
