Mr. Blowes and Mr. Wilson are accompanying the students who are leaving around 5 a.m. by bus. (It’s early or never that morning, Pat Hen­ nessey). Their itinerary includes a tour of the Parliament Build­ ings accompanied by our local M.L.A., Mr. T. Pryde, a visit to the Museum, Attendance at the Happy Gang program and, if possible, a tour of a factory. A trip such as this is “painless education’’.

Lorn© Keller learned a pain­ ful lesson last week while chas­ ing some girls. He fell and cut himself above the eye, the wound requiring several stitches. It could have ibeen worse—many a grown man has "lost his whole head over a woman, Marghiet Mahoney has a new type of make-up on her face, the result of applying it rather forcefully to the sidewalk. On Friday, November 17, the Ontario Safety League is pre­ senting a film in connection with the current safety campaign.

The council members are to be complimented on the new “School Slow’’ signs for the middle of Main Street at Victoria. Any driver now failing to recognize this intersection as a school crossing had bettei* check his eyesight—he’s blind! There was an addition to the Kindergarten this week—Rickey Caddey. The first day he was there the teacher told the class the story of a mother hen and her struggle to keep her large family of fifteen chickens to­ gether. Trying to impress upon the children what a difficult task this was for the mother hen she asked Ricky how many children there were in his fam­ ily. “Two,” came the reply. “How about you, Johnny Snell?” “Two,” answered Johnny. “And you, Tommy Ellerington?” “Oh, we can't keep track of them, they just keep coming all the time!” Obviously Tommy was still thinking about the chickens.

Hay To Place Controls On Lake Subdivisions Hay Township will seek to place controls on land subdivi­ sions along the Lake Huron shore of th© township.

Council met for its regular meeting last week with Reeve Earl Campbell, and councillors Wlllert, Roche, Becker an"d Rader present. Two complaints' about drains were ordered investigated by council.

Archibald, was authorized to present a report on conditions. Several landowners along the Zurich drain south requested re­ pairs as soon as possible. This was also referred to the engin­ eer. A by-law authorizing the bor­ rowing of $3,5 00 upon deben­ tures for the Township of Hay Memorial Community Centre was given final reading. ■ Grants of. $15 and $25 were granted to the Dashwood and Zurich Public Libraries.

The Reader Comments ❖ Letterw (editor published hereunder represent the viewH pl' individual person*. We invite our readers to make use of this column, Dear Editor: I hope you may find room in your column “The Reader Com­ ments” for one woman’s opinion of Exeter’s observance, of Re­ membrance Day, The service held on Sunday, November 12, was reverent and fitting in every respect. My complaint is that it was not held on November 11. On that day business as usual seemed to be the order of the day while in surrounding vill­ ages stores remained closed all or part of th© day. I would like to see the Legion take a firm stand for the ob­ servance of Remembrance Day on November 11, regardless of the day of the week it falls on. I am sure they would be sup­ ported by the majority of the citizens and surely no one in business here would Object to closing for a few hours to honor our heroic dead on the day that has been set apart for that purpose. -M.
