For those students, though, who have been striving for above average marks all year,, exemptions are possible. All yoju,need is hard work and a 75 per cent average of all year's work. It's always nice to sit back and think all that work was worth it when you see your classmates biting their nails. For those lucky people, the names will be posted on June 3. Good Luck ! —Lynne Chambers 4 4'0 EXAMS AND PREPARATIONS Third term exams are soon ap- proaching and we have to start studying. The grade 7 and 8 exam timetable is: Monday, June 6, Math; Tuesday, June 7, English; Wednesday, June 8, Science; Thursday, June 9, French ; Mon- day, June 13, History ; • Tuesday, June 14, Geography ; Wednesday, June 15, Music. These exams should be studied for and to be able to be a success- ful studier you should have a pat- tern of Study Methods. Howick has established a definition for the words STUDY METHODS. 0-0-�0 S --Setting : quiet spot where you have ail the necessary equip- ment. Proper lighting, sitting up straight. T — Time: set aside a .certain amount of time and a certain time of the day for systematic review. Not just the night be- fore. U — Use: your time wisely: not in front of TV or with radio on. Your mind can't be preoccu- pied. Perhaps 45 minutes of study and then a 15 minute break — then back to study. D — Develop: a method of study that works for you e.g. a) read, b) go over points without look- ing at page, c) write. Y — Yearn: (long) to do your best. You must want to do well if you are going to set aside time and use your time wisely. M — Mental alertness — to be mentally alert you must get your proper rest and proper food. Your mind can't be pre- occupied on other things. E — Make efficiet use of your time. Spend your time studying the most important things first. What has your teacher stressed? T — Be thorough — if there are 10 points, don't be satisfied know- ing 8. Know all 10. H — Happiness — is having a neat, concise, precise and correct set of records from which you can study. • O — Overlearn — To overcome the forgetting process you must overlearn. Overlearning will give you more confidence in the testing situation. Being satis- fied with knowing just enough to get by isn't adequate. This is a dangerous attitude. D — Diagnose—If obstacles seem to stand in your way— diagnose. What is the problem — e.g. not enough time, too much home- work, etc. Look for a solution not an excuse. • Am I making good use of my time at school? S — Systematic Study Stimulates Students So Start Studying Systematically Soon. If you start studying now you should have a successful year. —Tammy Brown 0-4-0 PROJECTS DISPLAYED The students who won pdizes in the Howick•Central Science Fair have had their projects displayed to the public: There are three projects displayed in the windows of area businesses. These busi- nesses are Currah's • in Gorrie, Kaster's in Wroxeter and the Bank of Commerce in Fordwich.

Hayden recently brought this high spirited Appaloosa stallion home from a ranch near Cambridge. Mr., Hayden, who raises Arabian horses on his ranch in Lower Town, said he hadn't intended to buy an Appaloosa 'but: "I made up my mind when I first saw him .that I would own him" The horse, aptly named High Tension, is slightly under two years old and unbroken. Mr. Hayden said he intends to keep the horse for his own use and does not plan to use him for breeding purposes. A t County Council Differing views expressed on health council decision Bayfield 'Reeve Ed Oddleifson' told Huron County council Friday that his failure to support a recommendation that Huron - Perth form a health council did not result in the defeat of the' recommendation. He said the Additio a! money is available for drainage projects The development committee of Huron county council reported to ,council Friday that it had learned of additional money to be spent on tile drainage in the province. The committee said that a news release on May 2 announced an additional $2 million is to be spent on drainage and additional allo- cations in Huron totalled $167,000. Committee Chairman Clifford Bray, Grey Township deputy - reeve, told council a, letter had been received from a liaison offi- cer for the ministry of agricul- ture and food listing local munici- palities and the money being made available to them. The Township of Stephen top- ped the list, receiving $45,000 ad- ditional money. Usborne Town- ship received $27400; Goderich Township $28700'; Ashfield Township $27,100; Howick Town- ship $11,800 and Colborne, Turn - berry and West Wawanosh Townships $9,000 each. • • The committee also recom- mended. that an additional $3,000 be granted the local committee for the International Plowing Match to beheld in Huron in 1978 for financing of preliminary work on service roads to the match site,. It also recommended that quotes be sought on 35,000 book matches showing the site of the 1978 match. vote not to form the council was 8- 7 at a special steering committee meeting but added that' his nega- tive vote did not break a tie. The committee has been work- ing for two years to look at all the aspects of forming a two -county health council. The investigation was made after medical profes- sionals, hospital staff, and most other professionals connected with health services balked at the idea ofbeing grouped, with 'Middlesex, Oxford and Elgin counties in one council and both county councils voted to look at a two -county system as an alter- native. Health councils were a project developed by the provincial ministry of health to cut. costs of health care delivery, remove competition between neighboring. municipalities and allow people better access to people at the, top of the health care bureaucracy. Oddleifson told council that he voted against the formation of the council becaue it din't, leave any flexibility, for timing the forma tion.'He said other municpalities had formed councils in the prov- Workers improve Fordwich cemetery FORDWICl'-1 —During the past week several men have been busy cleaning the Presbyterian Church Cemetery on the outskirts of Fordwich. Brush was cleared away and burned fences were 'taken down or repaired. Broken tombstones were also repaired. This is a great improvement to.. the cemetery and also to the looks of the outskirts of this pretty vil- lage. It is a credit to any place to see cemeteries that are no longer in use being well cared for. ince and he was in favor of Huron -Perth just sitting back and watching their development. He said by doing this a Huron -Perth council could benefit from the ad- mirable qualities and not be bur- ' dened with the problems others faced. "The council could storm in overnight or it could take two. years to develop," said Oddleif- son. NO TIME FRAME He added that the vote did not put any times' on the formation and if' that had been added he would have supported the motion. He said the vote was merely to form and he wanted it to say more. The ministry used the number 100,000 as an .arbitrary figure when setting up health councils and decided that a council should be formed for every 100,000 people at least. That means that Huron County did not ' have enough people to warrant an independent council and had to be, linked with another municipality. Oddleifson said Perth was a logical choice but pointed out that even Perth was distinctly dif- ferent from Huron. He said Huron had 'a completely rural base and Perth did not. The city of Stratford gave that county a different attitude than Huron and suggested possibly Huron should be seeking its own council. "There's no magic in the num- ber 100,000," he said. "It appears to be inevitable that we get a health council but it could•still be one for two counties or one for each," said the Bayfield reeve. He said the ministry would not force a health council on the area, pointing out that then minister of health Frank Miller made that promise two years ago when the steering committee began its FOUR GENERATIONS—A family birthday party produced this four generation picture with Harry Waller, right; his daughter, Mrs. L. Hayes; her son, left, Len Hayes; and his son, Leonard, sitting on his grandmother's knee. work. He said he felt that promise would hold true now, despite .the formation of 18 health councils since that time and 98 per cent of the province being under counclls it Metro-'foronto-votes in favor of them. "The ministry has its plateful now and would probably like to sit back and review what hap- pened," he said. DALE REPORTS In a report to council Bill Dale, Seaforth deputy -reeve, said the steering committee met with physicians from both counties to try to deal with some of the concerns the doctors had with councils. He said the medical of- ficer of health for Huron, Dr. Frank Mills, reported to the board that the conclusion he drew from the meeting was that a council formed at this time would interfere with the present process of health care delivery in the two counties. He added that the doc- tors agreed if the formation of a council was deemed necessary in two or three years they would co- operate completely with the ministry. Two members of the 15 -person committee said they were confi- dent a health council would be formed here despite a committee recommendation against them. -Dr. Mills and Lloyd Morrison, chairman of the steering com- mittee and reeve of Fullarton Township, said they didn't feel the committee's decision against the council would prevent it for long. Both men felt confident that the two counties will not be amal- gamated with the larger muni- cipalities but Morrison said he got the impression from ministry personnel that a situation could be created where the counties ask to be allowed to form the council. Mills backed up the comment adding that every time the county applies for more funds it will be plagued with comments to the effect that no. council has been formed yet and he believes it will eventually be a strike against the area. NOT COMPATIBLE Mills added that he does. not feel the ministry will permit. William J. Haines graduat- ed from Sir Sanford Fleming.

Former Wroxeter postmaster 96 WROXETiR — Four genera- tions were present when Harry Waller, a , former resident and postmaster at Wroxeter, cele- brated his 96th birthday on May 7. The occasion was marked with a delicious buffet supper. Helping him celebrate were his daughters and their husbands, Mr. and Mrs. L. (Kay) Hayes, Mr. and Mrs. R. (Madge) Silk, Mr. and Mrs. J. (Lil) Murray and Mrs. June Tremblett, Grandchildren, Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Hayes, Mr. and Mrs. R. Hopper, Mr. and Mrs. D.

Huron and Perth to, stand apart from the remainder of the prov- ince, the bulgy,- of which has for- med councils. He said the ad- ministration of health care in the - province -would be different frons Huron and Perth and thetwo systems would probably not be compatible, forcing Huron -Perth to follow in the way of a opuncil. Norman Hayes, Wingham Dis- trict Hospital administrator, and Dr. J. K. McGregor, also of Wing - ham, feel that the ministry will support the committee's recom- mendation not to form a council. The two members of the com- mittee said the ministry has indicated it is not as convinced of the worth of health councils as it was a few years ago and may be willing to hold up the creation of -more councils pending further study. ;Hayes added that the com- mltfee w`as"told -the ' ministry Is thinking of declaring a mora- torium on the councils across the province until there is proof they are as effective as hoped. McGregor said he thinks the ministry will be happy Huron - Perth rejected the council forma- tion and will believe It was an in- telligent appraisal of the people's views. He said he felt the speed at which the councils formed caught the government off guard and they would welcome a chance to take it easy for a while.
