The purpole to' present the financial reports for' 1975, review the work accomplished during the year, receive the auditor's report, and elect a new commissioner.

He also explained that a small increase in rates, may be approved in:the near. future.. Clayton Nicholson, manager and superintendent of the Huron and Kinloss System, stated that a new toll contract has been signed with Bell Canada which will increase 'our local commission about six, cents per call. He also fielded questions about the large size of party lined, the constant use of such party lines and the demand for lines and two party lines in the rural 'areas.' As these are in the field of the commissioner's jurisdiction he was ' unable to answer except that such matters will receive consideration at their regular meeting. Huron Township clerk treasurer, Mrs. Marie& Coiling, was chair- lady for the' election of a commis- sioner for a three year term. Commissioner Stewart Needham, who has served the system and its ' people for 38 years thanked all for their support over these past years. John H.
