KELLER When school opens next month, parents will not be able to buy accident insurance for their children through the school. This fact • was made abtterlaritlk e,feat.. Monday evening at the board of education meeting in Clinton. The accident insurance, which was available in previous years, has been discontinued because it wasn't considered too valuable in case of student accident, Some claims have been settled only after considerable dispute concerning legal interpretation of the policy and the board agreed that since students are covered by OHSTP,Ihrough their families, the insurance could be dropped. Some suggestion was made that dental insurance would be useful, but it was learned that this, too, was unsatisfactory at this time. Garden care Knowing how and when to trim hedges properly will give them a well.balanced, attractive appearance. There is a right way to do it and that little extra care will add the pleasing visual effects needed for an effectively landscaped home. Two or three trimmings a year are required. Late spring or early summer, early August, and late slimmer prunings are best. At planting time, the hedges should be pruned back severely to encourage branching out at the base. After that, trim them so the top is narrower than the bottom. The sun can reach all branches allowing uniform vigorous growth. Cut the sides first then the top, recommend horticulturists With the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. It would be Wise to trim during a period of dull weather so the sun won't burn the freshly cut tips. All hedges require some pruning to shape them regardless of their growth habita, so take the time to do the job properly.

Cochrane, director of education, that Education Week in Ontario should be held in October rather than in March. The board reasoned that inelerfierit weather in March hampers full participation by the parents. The board hassled over whether or not to approve an estimated expenditure of $1290 for a county principals' seminar to be held during September, possibly in Grand Bend. The Associate Superintendent in charge of planning, W.D. Kenwell, said that arrangethents called for two nights lodging and meals for two days. Discussion centered around the value of staying overnight rather than returning home each evening and reconvening the next morning. Kenwell claimed the trek home each day would "break up the continuity of the seminar"' "As much is to be gained by the informal sessions as the formal sessions," said the director. "I don't know what the Good Roads Convention costs the county each year," mused the chairman. Final decision was for the seminar to be held as planned with all expenses for the staff paid by the board. Mrs Marilyn Kunder suggested that students should be included on the new communications committees to be set up this fall with board members and teaching staff and now students working toward better relations. The idea received full board support. The decision came after a department of education edict urging more student involvement in the education process. Progress on the construction of the addition to Seaforth Public School was reported to the board. The masonry work is approximately 75 percent completed and mechanical work, plumbing, heating and electrical work at the 45 percent mark. Preparations are going ahead for the pouring of the concrete and terrazzo floor bases. The steel deck application has commenced. The board also learned that work at South Huron District High Schaal is progressing well with completion date likely to be before school opens.
