EXETER — Exeter
Scouts and the Ausable
Bayfield Conservation
Authority are doing the
work of squirrels this
fall by reforesting an
open field near Exeter
with walnuts and other
tree seeds.
Squirrels often bury
walnuts and acorns in
the fall and use the
cache later for food.
However, squirrels often
forget where they
planted the nuts,
allowing new trees to
grow.
"Darrell Keys, a
landowner west of
Exeter, wants this field
planted in trees because
it is difficult to work with
today's farm
equipment," said ABCA
Forestry Technician
Stephen Harburn.
If anyone is interested
in helping with the
project by donating
walnuts or providing
labour, contact scout
leader Darrell Keys at
237-3782.
Drivers beware of deer
on Huron County roads
HURON CTY.• — The
Huron OPP are" warning
motorists to be on the
lookout for deer on the
roads over the next two
months.
Const. Don Shropshall
said there have been 118
accidents on Huron roads
involving deer in the first
nine months of this year.
The Ministry of Natural
Resources (MNR) has
indicated deer popula-
tions in the county have
increased over the last
few years due to the mild
winters we have had and
it's estimated there is
over 8,000 deer in the
county.
Shropshall said deer
movement will increase in
October and November
because 'these are the
deer breeding months.
Deer are usually seen
around dusk and dawn.
but a number of accidents
have happened during the
day and evening.
Shropshall asks all
motorists to drive with
caution near woodlots
where trees and brush
come close to the road on
both sides.
Other areas to be care-
ful near include swampy
areas and cornfields
where deer feed.
Shropshall suggests dri-
vers slow down and scan
both sides of the road. If
you see a deer it usually
means there are three or
more since they travel in
groups.
Shropshall said drivers
often hit the second or
third deer when they
cross roads as a group.
All accidents where
there are injuries or dam-
age more than $1,000
must be reported to the
OPP and if the deer is
killed the Ministry of MNR
must be notified.
Drivers may keep the
meat after killing a deer if
they wish.
News from St.Anne's
BY PHILIP J. McMILLAN
The students of Sty Anne's will host their Halloween
dance this Thursday. It's a costume dance, so dress up
and get involved. Make it a great evening.
The walkathon was great success thanks to all who
helped. A special thanks to all who sponsored students
on their walk.
As we approach November we begin to get con-
cerned about the possibility of bad weather and the
potential for school closures. Parents are reminded
that any decision to close schools is made very early in
the morning after discussion with the bus companies
that transport students to St. Anne's. The minute the
decision to close a route is made we will let you know
by radio. Listen to CKNX FM 102, CBC FM 93.5, or
CFPL at radio 98.
This week we are in the last full week of rehearsals
for OUR TOWN. Watch your local papers for adver-
tisements about the show. The cast will be going to
Huronview to showcase pieces of the show for the resi-
dents. It's our hope that the show will trigger memo-
ries of years gone by and the residents will share their
experiences with our student actors.
Some students are traveling to Ottawa next week to
take part in a great conference on the Sanctity of Life.
Members of "The Students for Life" group are doing
some fundraising to offset their trip costs. A second
group of students will be attending the Northern Lights
Conference in Windsor, Ontario. This conference is
designed to promote leadership among Catholic youth
and was a hit with all who attended in previous years .
November is also a time to send reports out, and host
parenV'student /teacher interviews.. This year all grade
nine students will be getting the new Provincial Report
Card. Parents will recognize some areas of the report
from the new formats introduced recently in 'the ele-
mentary school s in the province. There will be distinct
assessment in areas of learning skills, separate from
the achievement areas of subject evaluation. The
number of times late and absence will also be report-
ed. Also included are the subject median and a mid-
point average of all currently studying in that subject
area. Reports will me handed out on Friday,
November 12th. Parents' night will follow on the next

BEST SELLING PLANS OF THE DECADE 1994
' The basement entry style home has always been. a popular choice for those just starting out because
they could have two (WI floors: one finished and the other finished when time and finances would
allow. In the nineties, the basement entry home found another market: older families with grown
children still living at home, and families wanting an in-law suite for aging parents. The design was
purchased with the intent to create two separate units instead of one. As a result, the main floor
became more elaborate, and the exterior more in keeping with the higher end homes common to
veterans of the home market.
The exterior of this home is right in style for 1994 boasting a combination of stucco and brick, and a
high arched entranceway.
A finished den, strategically placed in front, is ideally located for a horse office. A shared laundry room
has two entrances. A large unfinished area provides plenty of space for future finishing. A curved
staircase leads upstairs to a deluxe layout with large room sizes and all of the amenities normally
found -in larger homes.
Plans for GL -614 may be obtained for $425.00 for a package of five complete sets of working prints
and $35.00 for each additional set of the same plan. Allow $20.00 extra to cover the cost of courier
All B.C. residents add 7% sales tax to plan total. All Canadian residents please add 7% GST to plan
total plus courier charge.
This is one of our new designs. Many innovative plans are now available In our NEW catalogue:
Basement Entries and Cathedral Entries, which is available for $8.51, including postage and handling
and GST.
