Authority plans trails for winter Due to the recent record- setting warm temperatures, snowmobilers and cross- country skiers have probably not been thinking too much about their favourite winter- time activities. Now with snow just around the corner it's time to turn some atten- tion to winter trails. The Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority will once again be maintaining winter trails in the Exeter, Hay Swamp and Parkhill areas. Trail maintenance includes the clearing of brush and vegetation which has ac- cumulated during the sum- mer months, the installation of proper trail signage, the regular grooming of trails, the bridging of wet or steep areas and the setting of tracks on the cross-country ski trails. The Hay Swamp trail net- work will consist of a series of snowmobile trails. A good place to access the trails is from the parking lot developed last year on Hay Township Concession Road 4/5. Cross-country skiers will find the ski trail along the / Ausable River east of Exeter an attractive and accessible route for a few hours of ski- ing. The trail starts behind the South Huron Recreation Centre, runs along the south side of the river, and connects with Morrison Dam Conser- vation Area before returning along the north side of the river. At Parkhill Conservation Area both snowmobile and cross-country ski trails will be maintained. Brochures' which provide more detailed information about the Conservation Authority's winter trails are available through the Exeter office or by calling (519) 235-2610. Snowmohilers, cross- country skiers and other winter enthusiasts should also keep Sunday, February bin mind as that is the day the Conservation Authority will be sponsoring the Parkhill Winter Fun Day. The pro- gram for the day will include snowmobile and downhill inner -tufa races, a cross -cut sawing competition, in- teresting displays, films and hot refreshments. - ill HARRY E.

Women Teachers' Association held their annual tall banquet in the Strathroy United Church November 25. This fall banquet was also the occasion to honour their retired teachers, namely Audrey Atchison who retired as principal of Caradoc south, Mrs. Edith Hardacre, a former Mosa teacher, and Mrs. Nola McEwen a former East Williams teacher. Best wishes were extended to each in their retirement. The .Activity Centre was full to ovcrtlowing with euchre players Monday afternoon when the Leisure Club members of Parkhill ac- cepted this invitation. Eleven tables were at play for, the eight games with prizes going to Mrs. Nola McEwen, Mrs. Olive Volk, and Mrs. Roland Neil. 'Tea and cookies were served by the Activity Centre committee. Ellison Whiting invited the Craig seniors to visit the Parkhill Leisure Club, January 6. The Ailsa Craig and Town okays pay hikes Pay increases totalling a pro -rated cost of $6,061 for the 1982 budget were granted to several employees by Exeter council last week. All town salaries were "froze," by council earlier in the year after it was decided to have Personnel Manage- ment Associates undertake a complete review of the town's . salary and organizational structure. The executive committee, in its report, said they con- sidered the 1982 merit in- crements that were possible under the employee relations committee report in relation to the increments suggested by Lion Sharzer in his study. The committee's recom- mendation suggested the ad- justments be made to the respective employees' an- niversary date. No increases were given to employees who had been "red circled" in Sharzer's report, nor were there increases for• the police in view of the fact they are under contract, although Dan Kierstead was boosted $1192 as he was elevated from a second class constable to first. class. That puts his salary at 524,900, the same as the other constables. • Rec centre assistant facilities manager Cam Stewardson was boosted to an annual salary of $16,125 while secretary Joanne Field received a hike to $11,500 and town office secretary Donna Glanville was moved to $12,575. Rec director Lynne Farquhar now receives 515,456. The only other increases went to works superintendent Glenn Kells, foreman Bill Hirtzel, and police secretary Elaine Baynham. -Their respective annual salaries are now at 527,000, $21,200 and 510,311. District Lions' Club recently gave: 5100 each to Girl Guides and to LucanLions'club in ap- precit,tion for helping with the Ailsa Craig and District Lions' club car draw; $200 to the Parkhill arena and 15 poinsettias to the Craigholme.
