The Minister said that
nobody especially him, wants
to create undue hardships for
the agriculture community.
Some of the municipalities,
he said, have overcommitted
and some have not committed
their total allocation and
when all the facts and figures
are put together the whole
situation can be assessed and
an equitable basis can be
worked out within the means
they had.
Ontario may start issuing
driver's licences which carry
a picture of the driver, ac-
cording to the Minister of
Transportation and . Com-
munications, who has been
considering such a scheme
for sometime.
He has ordered his officials
to speed up their in-
vestigation of the scheme's
implications following this
week's report on the
problems of alcohol abuse
among young people, which
recommended the legal
drinking age be raised from
18 to 19 yearsof age and
young drivers should be
required to carry iden-
tification cards.- Both
Opposition Leaders indicated
that they are concerned that
ID cards for young drinkers
may infringe on the civil
rights of young people.
Anyone selling meat for
human consumption from
animals which died from
causes other than
slaughtering will be subject
to suspension or revocation of
his licence to collect and
process such -animals. This
new rule is part of a bill
passed by the Ontario
tegislature, which according

e Acting arm
4 o'cloclt to 6 o'clock. We
emphasized the economic
irmpa. t theclosing of the
Mita would have on the
community as it was the
largest employer in Clinton,
and that the closing- of the
hospital coup quite icon-
* eeivab1y lead to the disin-
tegration of the community.
This is evident from the
number of homes that have
gone up for sale since the
announced closing.
Failing our efforts to keep
the hospital as an active
treatment facility we asked
the Minister to defin+ the
extent of the ambulatory
services.
The Minister went into
some detail on this particular
Matter with the medical staff
who had private conversation
with ' her, and to the
remainder' .of the delegation
she expressed her sym-
pathies and indicated that she
would have further
discussions with, the Minister
oflHealth,'Frank Miller.
I was prompted to direct a
question to the Minister of
Agriculture and Food this
week because of the situation
farmers found themselves in,
in view of "the restriction in
-the availability of money for
farm drainage loans. I asked
the Honourable Bill Newman
whether he could yadvise how
the townships are expected to
live up to their commitment,
not knowing that there were
going to be restrictions when
theyapproved the loan ap-
plications and could he advise
flow the farmers are expected

installed on the strength of
the fact that the loan would be
taming through the Town -
Mr. Newman replied that
the allocation of the budget is
;now $13 million Which Li
approximately the same as it
was last year. It's gone up
Srom $4.5 million about three
. ears ago and because of

Plan, Liberal Leader Stuart
Smith said in the Legislature,
when he asked the Minis.•,ter:of
CommunitY and Social
Ser: vic es achy hehad not
advised the Treasurer of the
new federal proposal in ad-
vance of Ontario's April Ist,
presentation.
The Treasure had told a
meeting of finance ministers
that Ontario estimated the
plan would have cost almost
three times the $1.1 billion
estimated by Ottawa. The
Minister of Community and
Social Services said the most
recent federal proposal in-
troduced in February had not
been universally accepted by
the provinces.
Albert Roy, Liberal M.P.P.
(Ottawa East) called at-
tention to the fact that former
MPPs now employed on
various provincial govern-
ment boards and com-
missions should not be
allowed to collect govern-
ment pensions.
Former Legislature
members receive a gover-
nment pension, the amount
'depending on the length of
time served in the House, and
some 'former members
receive up to $40,000 a year
for sitting on various boards
and commissions.
The Minister of Govern-
ment Services told theilouse
she will investigate the
situation and report back to
the Members.
The Minister of Colleges
and Universities said in the
Legislature that there is a
gap between school and work
which is not bridged, and he
feels that industrial training
needs in Ontario are not being
met. As a first step he is
appointing a new Industrial
Training Cjuncil to advise the
Government. and he wants
the council to study some of •
the more controversial
recommendations of a task
force on industrial training.

Each year a private school
presents a classical play such
as "Hamlet", "Macbeth", or
"Romeo and Juliet." A few
days before this annual event
was to take place, the fifth -
grade teacher decided to
prepare her class for it.
"Does anyone know who
Shakespeare is?" she asked.
One child, raised his hand.
"Sure," he answered, "he's
the guy who writes the eighth
grade play every year."

da
sp ant, which has
under installation in the.
Clinton system since the
beginning of the year.
The dialing of the lull seven
digit* is part of an automatic
number identification system
which will take place May 15,
1978. At that time if You have
individual or two-party line
service, your telephone
number will be automatically
recorded when you dial your
own long distance calls.
Because of this system. the
Clinton exchange 482 has to
baa used all the time, including
in town calls.
Due to a mix up, the News -
Record was not informed of
the change in the system in
time for last week's paper.
This mix up made us unable
to inform the public of the
switch over before it hap-
pened. However, Bell
Canada did include a notice in
Clinton area phone bills
received last Thursday, in-
forming, its customers of the
change taking place the
following MondaYkt:�

distance calls. -
This applies to customers
with individual or twoiarty
line service ONLY. II you
have ruralline service, you
, will still' be required to give
you telephone number . on
direct dialed calls.
Cutover to the dial system
from the common battery
system took place in Clinton
in
1956. At the thine., there
•were 1,500 phones in service,
and each subscriber received
a new telephone number
beginning with "Hunter"
followed by five digits.
The first dial telephone was
installed in the home of
Mayor Morgan Agnew of
Clinton its 1955, but by the
time the dial system was in
operation there was a new
mayor, W.J. Miller.
By 1961, the 2,000 telephone
mark had been reached and
Clinton's subscribers were
introduced to "All number"
calling in 1963. in preparation
for Direct Dialing which
Telephone users on the 482 Clintosn exchange will have to
dial all seven numbers now, as Bell Telephone switches
their equipment over to an automatic long distance
recording system. Here Willard Conn of London, on
ladder, and Don McIvor of Exeter check over . the new
equipment. (News -Record photo)
