ment was $2,254,000."
Tax collector Ben Whitely

applications for the Construe-
tion Safety Inspector's job at
$4,800.a year; need for continu,
ing the ambulance service in
the county; need for control of
the dump.
McIlwain commented that it
would be 'difficult at present to
combine the offices of EMO
with the Safety Inspector's
post, since the former received
provincial and federal grants,
while the other was purely the
county's expense.
Councillor Oakes reported on
township road work, and the
need to replace the 1949 grad-
er. "The other one (bought in
1956) is also getting old, and
we need one new one," stated
Oakes.
Oakes noted that inetead of
farm ponds; the Conservation
Anthoeity was experimenting
with a new irrigation Method,
called a "hillside . trickle".
"One is installed already, and
we're preparing one near Sea-
fOrth in 1966, so that people
can see it in operation." He
warned' against closing the
dump, since it would encourage
people •' to dump garbage on
roadsides.
Councillor W. R. Jenkins
joined Oakes and Mcllwain in
congratulating Forbee on the
cemetery clearing, and suggest-
ed a chain-link fence around
it to make it look finished.
"If it weren't for those settlers
and the work they did," -said
Jenkins, ."a lot of us wouldn't
be here." He noted that gar-
bage control was difficult and
that on the sideroad from the
Base Line to the 16th, which
was cleaned up just this sum-

ed municipal ditches.
Councillor Wilmer Riddell,
spoke briefly thanking .the
school area- board for work
done in the past. "Our child-
ren are going to reap the bene-

he said.
John Semple (re7n,amed to
the public school board) Was'

ing until his turn to speak,

Jelin Westbrook ,spoke brief-
ly stating that though reason-
ably new to the township he
was interested in public ser-
vice. He had no argument With
the present school board, how-
ever.
When the nominees had all
spoken, John Tebbutt, chair-
men of, the board, wee put .on
the ."bot seat", while ratepay-
ers questioned him about costs,
numbers of pupils, etc.
Tebbutt reported teachers
Salaries of $38,500, plus $1,200
for music instruction, There
are 320 pupils, And the school
is large enough to accommod-
ate 440. The addition had been
put up at the cost of $1.3 per
square foot, which is considered
good.
Mr. Tebbutt thanked his
board for their work during
the year, and thanked council
for its support. He said - they
would be happy to make •the
auditorium available for future
nomination meetings.
All of the one-room schools
in the township have been sold,
and though they were selling
the old school at Hohnesville
to the township, they expected
to retain use of it (if needed)
for extra classroom space. '
Ed-Wise, another board mem-
ber, spoke briefly,
Chairman Forbes asked
about public school trustees'
salaries, noting that he had
served some years ago for $9
a year.
From the audience came a
chuckle la's Bob Elliott chided,
"You only get what you pay
for, Walter."
Then Forbes turned the.
tables by saying, "well from
the High School board we must
be getting something good.
How about your report on
CUSS?"
Mr. Elliott proceeded to give
a comprehensive report on
statistics concerning CHSS and
the 1,212 students there. He
said he was proud to represent
Goderich Township, since it al-
ways stacked up well against
other areas taking part in
CEISS affairs.
SalarieS at CHSS. range from
$4,800 to $13,500 for the 69
teacherse...repoeted Elliott, plus
15 night school instructors
paid $12 per night. Other staff
includes three secretaries, five
clerk-typists, six custodians,
four engineers, and nine buses
covering ten routes, art 44 cents
per mile.
"Our mill rate is down," said
F-Illott, "now only 16 mills.
(Here he made an aside to
Chairman Fortes; "Not bad for
a two year man, Walter.") He.
predicted 1,467 pupils within
the next five years.
The proposed addition is ex-
pected to cost $467,120, at
about $21 per square foot.
However, Mr. Elliott felt that
the' mill rate might be lowered
by two mills in 1966. He fav-
oured this, • though it might

Walter Forbes, former reeve
of Goderich Township, and a
former warden of Huron, was
chairman for the public meet-
ing which followed the non cim.a-
tion period. He kept an in,
formal manner as he introduc-
ed each speaker,- and sometimes
commented on the remarks
each made.
He noted among other things
that credit should go to Bob
Welsh for starting the central
school in the township seven
yeaps ago. "We had a lot of
arguments with Bob,. but he
was a good trustee, and .he got
this school under way at a
good time. Central . schools
could be seen in the future
then, 'and they are a good.
thing. There is not .. so much
change for youngsters now, as
there was 'Changing from a one
room school to high school,
You know, I went to s'choo'l on
my bare feet," summed up For-
bes, "niy sons went to school
on bicycles, and their children
are going to school in buses.",
Mr. Fol.-41;es commented in
favour of municipal drains; his
sorrow that Concession 11 was
clue to be turned back to the
township from the county
roads. system (Holmesville is
the heart of the gravel indus-
try, he pointed out, and there
is a lot of heavy travel on
this read); the, importance of
re-huilding north-south roads,
since they cost more to snow-
plow than those running other
directions; commented that
Roy Tyndall was ein his 33rd
year -of service to. the township
as road superintendent.
Reeve Grant Stirling felt
that a Construction Safety In-
spector was in the .near future
for the county. He added that
this office could be combined
with that of the Emergency
Measures Organizer, "it would
give one of them something to
db. But I'll be classed with Mr.
Hindmarsh if I say anything
against EiVIO," he ended. '
