No matter what type of energy is used to heat or cool a home, proper insulation will greatly reduce the amount required. Well insulated walls, ceilings, and floors over unheated areas, together with properly fitting storm windows and doors, will produce significant savings in the cost of maintaining the comfort level you want inside the home. If you're planning to buy or build a new home- or improve an existing one-make proper insulation a prime concern.

The information session held et SouthKuron District High School Monday at- tracted about 75 peeple,. including a large number of children: with their parents,. Chairing the meeting was. Doctor Don Ecker of Exeter ,who along with Constable He also suggested the county send out press releases about various aspects of the county, print place mats for restaurants showing points of interest and revamp town and county brochures, Total cost for all his suggestions would be $25,000, he said. Council didn't discuss the suggestions, which will go before the county's development committee, but county development officer Spence Cummings, who invited Bayley's proposals, said Huron should get "more professional" in promoting itself. The county advertised the availability of industrial land in Huron this year in industrial and business publications but while there were 106 inquiries, he said, there were no concrete results. In other business, council learned that 23 of Huron's 26 municipalities have rejected the idea of turning over the education portion of local taxes four times a year in- stead of twice a year. Huron County board of education, which would have saved an estimated $70,000 in interest costs on money borrowed to pay bills bet- ween municipal payments in 1979 if the idea had been in effect, already rejected the suggestion in June. But the board decided to poll all municipalities so county council would know their positions. Most municipalities only collect taxes from ratepayers once or twice a year, Goderich Reeve Eileen Palmer said she was afraid that quarterly payments would force municipalities to borrow to, meet the payments. "The ratepayers of Huron County are going to pay for it one way or another." Only Clinton, Seaforth and Hensall were in favor of quarterly payments. Kevin Short of the Exeter police department, Grant Ellison of CAAD,, AlEpp; SHDHS teacher Jim Glad- ding endHigh school student Matt McClure participated in. a panel discussion on the matter of ,alcohol and drug abuse among people. prior to the discussion a. film on marijuana use by children in the United States under the age of 16 was shown with Short saying the film was realistic and many of the children pictured resembled some of the youth which he had dealt with locally. Ellison .an.d. Epp had similar feelings about the film in that it presented a realistic. picture. In one of the recurring themes of the evening Gladding. said he believed few miles away. He also noted that Dash- wood received water at a cheaper rate than Exeter had been previously quoted and wondered if the Lake Huron supply should be investigated again. Mayor Derry Boyle said he didn't think Exeter could think of going to the pipeline for at least 10 years and Davis reported that estimates indicate the town has ample supply for the next 20 years. He said the proposed Congratulations to all the boys and girls who made the school soccer teains.

"Sooner or later we'll have to look at a larger supply," Livingstone commented. Members agreed to look at the suggested projects at a later date although they agreed to have engineering studies done on a proposed improvement of the, water lines on William St.,between Nelson and Alexander. At the meeting, Davis indicated there would be no need for a water rate in- crease in the next four to five Our school put forth a great, effort,i0aoth ,tug- of vrar and the, relay races at the Parkhill Fair. Although they came in third, they tried their best and we should thank Miss McIntyre for coming out and coaching us. Many of our students had exhibits entered at the fair. When we were looking over the exhibits we ' noticed that many of the prizes came back to McGillivray.

Ii a question and answer session Shore said the courts were leveling heavier fines against drug pushers and that the penalities from drinking ant rivinghad been stiffened. After his third drinking and driving con- viction a driver could lose his licence for three years. SHDHS teacher Bruce Ferry put the blame for alcohol and drug abuseon the shoulders of the parents and suggested that as a last resort all laws be eliminated and people be made responsible for their own action. "Until we educate the parents, we can't blame the kids," according to phys-ed and family life instructor Ron Bogart of the school. Agreeing with Bogart were McClure and student Paul McAuley with McAuley saying "Kids are going to do it if the parents do it." Bill Murdock of the Addiction Research Foun- dation said that by grade 13 94 percent of students are using alcohol which com- pares to a figure of 85 per- cent for the general population. Murdock said that while alcohol was the number one problem in the schools, concern for the increased use of other drugs in the school system must be shown.

Huron County needs a tabloid newspaper to promote the county as a "good place to live, work and invest," according to an advertising, agent who wants the county to invest in his proposal. Adrian Bayley, owner of Agripress Canada Ltd., Hensall, told county council Monday that the key to at- tracting industry is to promote such benefits as Huron's rural quality of life and recreational op- portunities. - He attended the meeting with an eight-page sample of what he has in mind, in- cluding interviews with residents about their lives and descriptions of each town and , village in the county. The tabloid, which would cost $12,000 for printing and • distribution of 20,000 copies, would be sent to all levels of government, travel agents, convention associations and tourist offices, he suggested.

The projects, as outlined Friday by manager Hugh Davis, included the replacement of a 1935 engine at the main pumphouse at a projected cost of $60,000 and a $47,500 addition at the springs pumphouse to house an additional generator and the chlorination equipment. Davis said that local resident Earl Carroll was the only person who could repair the vintage engine at the main pumphouse. Livingstone said the ad- dition of sophisticated equipment could put the PUC in a position of it getting beyond their ability to maintain it and he also noted they were duplicating equipment that was only a McGillivray school students run well Good deeds are the purest form of prayer! +11.' c4 r = e
