drive you and your car
home if you don't feel
well, or have had too
much to drink, or for
any other reason. Cost is
more than a taxi, far
less than a wreck.

When parking on a hill
(facing down), turn the
forward side of wheels
against the curb. If your
car rolls, it will roll into
the curb, not into traffic.

Shock absorbers should
always be replaced in
pairs.

Dieseling — when your
car keeps running after
you turn it off — is caus
ed by excess unburned
fuel in the combustion
chambers that are ig
nited by engine heat or
hot spots.

County Roman Catholic
Separate School board
system, it has been deter
mined by the trustees the
school of attendance will be
determined by the
availability of space in the
schools rather than by
geographical location.
With overcrowding at St.
Joseph’s School in Stratford,
where there are 162 pupils in
five classrooms, the board
will relocate beginning in
September, 1978, the rural
pupils from Ellice and North
Easthope Townships from
St. Joseph’s to St. Aloysius
School in Stratford and the
rural pupils from Downie,
Gore of Downie, South
Easthope and West Zorra
Townships from St. Joseph’s
to St. Ambrose School in
Stratford.
This decision was made in
a recorded vote requested
by Ronald Marcy of Strat
ford who opposed it along
with Mickey Vere of Strat
ford.
Approving the decision
were: Ted Geoffrey, Zurich;
David Teahen, Stratford;
Michael Connolly, Kippen;
John O’Drowsky, St. Marys;
Greg Fleming, Crediton;
Ronald Murray, Dublin;
John O’Leary, Staffa;
William Kinahan, Lucknow;
Vincent Young, Goderich;
Arthur Haid, Listowel and
Keith Montgomery,
Wingham. Chairman Donald
Crowley of Gadshill did not
vote.
In another recorded vote
the trustees agreed to have
kindergarten classes in all
schools converted to full day
on alternate days commen
cing September, 1978, rather
than the present half day
system as in some of schools
to establish uniformity
within the system.
Opposing this decision
were David Teahen and Vin
cent Young with the rest of
the trustees voting approval.
A letter has been sent to
the home of the parents of
all the students being
.transferred in September in
forming them of the board’s
decision.

Members of Zone 8 United
Senior Citizens of Ontario
met in Exeter Wednesday.
Harry Baker of Bayfield
presided for opening exer
cises.One minutes silence
was observed for deceased
members.
Reverend Glen Wright of
Exeter United Church
conducted devotions.
Reverend Wright stated he
was happy that so many had
learned the Lords Prayer in
their younger years and
were still able to say it.
He added, “Something we
find lacking in our younger
generations today, is not
being able to repeat the
Lords Prayer, at weddings
or funerals. Rev. Wright
spoke on love and stressed
that love of God should in
fluence our homes and lives.
Mayor Bruce Shaw gave a
warm welcome to all Senior
Citizens who were attending
the rally.
Mr. Lalsch of Palmerston,
field representative of South
Western Ontario spoke on
what a Senior Citizen was
and is and explained how
star membership dues are
used.
Mrs. Turnbull, recording
secretary substituting for
Mr. Van Waggoner
suggested we should take
time to have a bit of religious
program in our meeting.
She strongly
mended having
membership. One of the
things that have been ac
complished because of the
money raised this way and
given to U.S.C.O. was free
drugs for senior citizens.
We should get as many as
we can to help in running a
club. You must do something
properly or someone will tell
you. Mrs. Zerback spoke of
organizing clubs in Huron
County and dividing this part
of Ontario in zones.
Recognition was given to

E.T. Smith of Toronto
U.S.C.O. the speaker, said in
his address that we should be
interested in our provincial
well as our local
organizations. We are
fortunate that we are able to
approach our governments.
He had been on a tour of
Spain and Africa and was
appalled at the conditions
there and we should ap
preciate the privileges that
we have here. The govern
ments will listen to briefs
which are presented and
consider them.
In Ontario we have 940
clubs with a membership of
250,000 at present.
In Canada alone we have
2,200,000 pinsioners, with
700,000 in Ontario alone.
The U.S.C.O. is an
organization for senior
citizens run by seniors and
special consideration for the
needs of senior citizens.
We should apply for
Horizon grants. There is
$12,000,000 available for
another 18 months.
He urged us to send
deligates to the provincial
convention to be held in
Kingston Queens University
August 14-15-16.
The 37% raise in O.H.I.P.
does not apply to seniors and
they are reversing the case
of free drugs as well for
Seniors.
They have a new Links
program which is a help
your neighbor as in ex
change programs such as
you do my mending or and
I’ll do your dishes sort of
program. We are to hear
more about this later.
There is soon to be
developed a leadership
course for seniors. They are
hoping to be able to subsidize
those who cannot pay their
taxes, rent or maintenance in
order to keep people in their
own homes.
Funds may be available in
the future so Seniors can
take in the conventions
which are held in different
locations.
The National convention
will be in Vancouver in the
fall. The trip will be a tour
taking in 23 days.
There is a leisure time
problem. Get lonely people
out to club meetings to meet
people as well as getting
exercise. They are hoping to
get more senior citizen
travel available! AU in all it
was a good day, Well spent.
Approximately 150 persons
attended the rally.
