Kinettes entertclin grand-
mothers.to party, cards
The local Kinette Club has
been busy this fall with
preparations that range from
constructing 'ducks' to adver-
tise Clinton's Centennial, to en-
tertaining their adopted 'grand-
mothers' from Huronview.
Once again, the Kinette Club
is sponsoring a foster child.
This year their support will go
to Alba Maria, a youngster in
Costa Rica, San Jose.

mark a considerable amount of
money for the Ausable-Bayfield
Conservation Park project.

for the Arthritis and
Rheumatism Society was con-
ducted this fall by the Kinettes
and the Beta Sigma Phi
Sorority. An approximate total
of $700 was raised in the door

evening of bridge, crokinole
and dessert at the Public

BY WIVAA OKE
At A ratepayers' meeting held by Tucker-
smith Township Council last Wednesday,
NOV. 6, only one percent of the 2126 voters
turned up to hear Reeve Elgin Thompson;
Deputy Reeve Ervin Sillery; Councillors
Cleave Coombs and Lambert Bran-
clerhorst; Huron County Board of
Education member, Mrs, Mollie Kunder;
and Huron-Perth County Roman Catholic
Separate School Board member Michael
Connolly give a summary of their last two
years in office,
James McIntosh, township clerk-
treasurer, was appointed chairman for the
meeting held at Huron Centennial School,
Brucefield,
Mrs. Kunder of Seaforth said the
facilities in Huron schools were being used
to capacity. Speaking of the trainable retar-
ded she said they are being assimilated
into the regular school and are being accep-
ted by the other students. The pupils at the
Queen Elizabeth School at Goderich for
the trainable retarded will be moved to
Victoria Public School when the new ad-
dition is completed next year.
Mrs. Kunder said all the board's schools
have libraries except at two of the smaller
schools in Huron at Walton and East
Wawanosh, and all schools will soon
benefit from home economic and industrial
arts in all grade 7 and 8 classes. She said
the board was keeping the older school
buses for field trips when new buses
replace them.
In answer to a question she said the field
trip committee of which she is a member
does not consider overseas trips, field trips,
She said the overseas trips are organized
by private organizations or by teachers and
are not under board control.
She asked for support in her bid for re-
election, as did Mr. Connolly, He expressed
his disappointment that none of his
separate school supporters were at the
meeting. He is presently chairman of the
Separate board and thanked the township
council for keeping the roads in good con-
dition for the school buses.
Reeve Thompson stated he had had
more requests than ever for him to con-
tinue on council. He said the reason his
council does so much for Vanastra is
because they ask for it and they are paying
for it. He said the roads at Vanastra were
all black-top and in good condition.
Speaking of the Day Care Centre
promised for Vanastra, he said the council
went along with it because it is to pay its
own way 100 percent and he said he was
willing to go along with Seaforth's Day
Care Centre as long as it pays its way, "We
have two council members on the Vanastra
Recreation Committee but we don't in
Seaforth", he' said.
The reeve spoke of the recently installed
water system in Brucefield, the six
municipal drains completed this year and
the (31 building permits for building
projects of $1,787,$80, the upkeep on the
township roads, the condition of the
bridges and the need for replacing four of
them, his work on county council and with
the Ausable-Bayfield Conservation
Authority.
Deputy-reeve Sillery of Brucefield spoke
of his 13 years on council, two of them as
deputy-reeve. He spoke of Huronview
which is full at the present time, He asked
for support in his bid for re-election,
Mr. Coombs of Egmondville talked
about fire protections in the township. He
said the new fire truck ordered by Seaforth
will be delivered next month at a cost of
abcut $36,800. He is the Tuckersmith
representative on the Seaforth Fire Board.
He spoke of the new Elizabeth Park for
Egmondville, He asked for support as he
seeks re-election,
Lambert Branderhorst of Kippen spoke
of the co-operation he has received on
council during his four years, "especially at
the south-end" and the co-operation of
council members. He asked for support for
the election.
Bob Drummond criticised the
"disgraceful condition of the road east of
Hensall with its six-inch pot holes" and
asked when it would be paved. The reeve
assured him that he would ask the road
superintendent to look into it and said to
have a road fixed up you have to put up
with the bad during re-construction work.
Mr. Branderhorst said the gravelling on
the section of road should be finished by
November 16.
Bill Rowcliffe questioned if the sides of
the road should be higher than the middle
of the road and asked when it would be
paved.Reeve Thompson said "money is
tight, we hope not too far away". He said
he does not know if he can get enough
money to even build one bridge,
Robert fotheringhain complained about
the hollow in the Flewitt Bridge and was
willtold it b
James
elooked into,
HowardMrs. of Egmondville
questioned the water installation rates in
Egmondville when they could double over•
night just recently from $200 to $400 and
then council made an exception and
charged one resident an additional amount
above the $400. (This was because of the
distance council had to run the waterline
to service his home,) Mrs. James said she
thought the rates set should hold and no
exceptions made.
Mrs. Robert Watson of Egmondville
questioned why the township council did
not support the Day Care Centre in
Seaforth for the benefit of Egmondville
and Harpurhey residents when it supported
one at Vanastra. The reeve suggested these
residents could drive their children to
Vanastra, which Mrs, Watson said was not
feasible, Mr. Sillery said he agreed with
Mrs. Watson and that he would not con-
sider the long drive a solution,
