One of the policies of the secondary plan for Blyth is to establish an industrial park, where industrial development can flourish, Reeve Don Noble, and councillors Bill Howson and Tom Cronin met with Morris council Wednesday evening to discuss annexation of land along the outskirts of Blyth. County planner Roman Dzus was on hand to explain the reasoning behind the need for these parcels of land. Although Mr. Dzus had not computed out the number of acres involved councillors thought it would be about 50 acres. The suggestion is so preliminary there were no figures drawn up concerning the change in assessment tor the property owners involved or the difference in taxes for Morris and Blyth. When the secondary plan was drawn up there was no suitable land available for industry and it was recommended by • county planning department that Blyth into creating space with the cooperation of Morris Township. The land being considered includes : a small section in the southeast corner of the village next to the Triple K Restaurant. This squared off section would allow for a service road. The second parcel of land is in the north east end of the village limits. The land .boundaries of the village would be squared off and would allow roads to run with lots off either way. In this area is a planned (Continued on Page 7) Christmas suggestions The glorious season of Christmas will soon be upon us and with it come all sorts of good things.

Morris Township council decided to adopt Section 86 tax assessment at a special council meeting on Thursday night, follow- ing a presentation by, Ted East and Gerald Morgan of the regional assessment office in Goderich on what the new assessment would mean for the township. Council' was told that open houses would In the residential class, 136 Morris units will get a reduction in tax assessment while 180 units will increase, Commercial property assessment also includes the business assessment. In Morris Township, in the commercial class, 15 units will come down and 14 will go up in their tax assessment, In the farm class, 72 per cent will have little change, 14 per cent will go up and 14 per cent down. About 25 or 33 farms are going to have tax changes of over $100 per farm, Mr. Morgan told council members. Prior to council deciding to adopt the Section 86 assessment, there was some discussion of the possibility that people might confuse the Section 86 assessment with the proposed equalization factor which council has decided to appeal.

More times than not both played the same shows so it was not a choice between what to watch but which was clearer.

Occasionally in the winter when we were too tired to work we would turn it on early and watch a bit of Walt Disney or whatever on Sunday evenings. But with the new antenna, the rush for the set was on right as soon as you got within a foot of the door, After two weeks of having the set on every moment we were awake in the house and even a few hours while we slept (in the upright position) it suddenly came to us that we were getting in a rut of watching the set every night, So much of a rut that we were taking our meals in front of the darn thing, Fortunately the novelty is wearing off.

In fact ...many "do- it-yoursclfers" are on their way to the biggest fall in their lives as they rush outdoors before winter sets in to make needed home, barn or shed repairs or to paint. Dr. David Goldfingcr, medical' consultant for Com- bined Insurance Company of America - 'Toronto, warns that "a fall from almost any height on a ladder can result in a serious injury or even a fatality." The safety and research team of Combined cautions climbers to -- •never use ladders that are too long or too short for the job, and always place the ladder in a position where you will feel most comfort- able in working from it. *stabilize both the ladder's base and top before taking the first step upwards. When working. cin. cement or other slippery flooring, place rubber "boots" on the base of the ladder. These may be pur- chased at your local hard- ware store. *check rungs for rot or defects before stepping on than. * never paint your ladder as it hides rot and defects. • use only ladders that have rungs "rabbited" into them. *always use accessory equipment to hold your tools or paint. "If you conte across a person that' has fallen and appears injured, let the pat- ient lie as motionless as possible exactly where he is. Don't try first aid unless you've been trained," said Dr. Golclfinger. "Do call a doctor, an ambulance or your local fire or police emergency station and then cover the patient with a light blanket. Above all, do not give the injured person a stimulant to drink," concluded the doctor.

They, meaning characters on the screen, try to make the average viewer believe everything on the set. When they advertise products there is always some sort of machine that can measure the results of the product to show you it is better than others. Like a linament, The fancy gadget they pass over a person's back measures the heat radiated off. Humbug. To the average person it may look plausible but if you stop and really think about it, who is to say that the manufacturers don't just make up a machine that they say can measure the heat and leave it at that? 1 am sure that the government tries to maintain some sort of order among the promotors and advertisers, But silly people on the screen talking foolish nonsense about their products has become irritating and I for one am going to devote my time to more thought provoking things like reading or finishing that pillow I started last year. All of this brings to rtiind the concept of pay TV, When you pay for it directly perhaps you will demand better quality programming, and with the money involved people will be more selective about their viewing habits, It could be less TV will be watched but more will be learned and that may be just what the TV was meant for, With the winter seaon coming up and more and more people staying indoors now is a good time to get involved in local groups and sports and get out of the house, and away from the television, 1 for one am going to ski every Sunday morning and restrict my TV diet to shows that 1 find truly interesting, Now that 1 have blown off about TV and the better half is sure to read this column 1 will have to show a bit of strength and be able to turn the TV off when there is nothing productive or truly entertaining on. cSUPCIZ LOO 523-4351 Your Own Special SUPER LOOK' Style .NOW ON SALE at extra special prices and .

It's obvious that a lot of people have appreciated the effort that went into them, as many compliments have been received at all three newspaper offices. And people are gathering a number of the books up to send to relatives as Christmas presents. It's not often that newspapers get complimented for the work they've done, but judging from the response to the cookbooks7staff here knows it was one effort that was worthwhile and appreciated. And thanks once again to the people who submitted the recipes. It's good when the newspaper and the community can work together to accomplish something positive. Small business hurts While major corporations can usually weather short economic squalls, says The Glengarry News, small businessmen tossed upon a similar sea of financial instability can very often find themselves at the bottom of the lake. Many small businesses order stock about three months in advance and pay with money borrowed from the bank about 30 days after delivery. However, the interest rate paid on the borrowed money increases automatically with the bank rate and most small businesses are paying about 16 per cent interest on their loans. Since small businessmen do not usually have vast amounts of cash on hand to float them over troubled waters, such sharp hikes of the interest rate over such a short period of time can be fatal. By following the former Liberal government's policy of raising interest rates as a matter of form, the new Conservative administration has shown .a comparable disregard for the welfare of our small business sector. The irony of this interest rate policy is that it penalizes those who are doing the most to alleviate one of our major problems - unemployment. In other words, we are killing the goose that lays the golden egg.

(Standard Photo) Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston Do we care? Why did they ever decide to make 1979 the International Year of the Child? This "celebration" has come at a time in history when children have never before been so worthless in the eyes of society. Sure we treat our children better today than in the past. We don't make children go to work in the mines or the factories for 14 -hour days to be sure. We don't condone parents taking children to the woodshed and flailing away • with anything handy when they feel discipline is required. Our schools stress understanding, not intimid- ation these days. So thinking back to the distant days of our childhood past we may envy the kids of today's generation. Yet children growing up in the 1970's must be able to gather an uneasy feeling after a while that they are the excess baggage of our western society. Treatment of children in the old days may not have been kind but at least children were a desired commodity. Even if for only economic terms parents wanted children because they could work on the farm, could earn a few pennies extra working those horrible hours in factories under conditions children shouldn't have been exposed to. In contrast children today are looked at as something that stands in the way of economic prosperity. For a young couple getting married the decision is often between having a new gadget -filled house and a new gadget -filled car and having children, Children are a problem. Having children means certain time will be lost from work while the wife is in the advanced stages of pregnancy. The decision must either be made then whether one of the partners is going to stay home to look after the children or if both will continue to work and look for someone else to look after the child, If the former course is chosen then a large portion of the family income is lost. If daycare is chosen then there is still a high expense of paying for it. But above all that there's just the bother of it all. I mean it's pretty 'lard to go out to the disco three times a week if you've got kids at home. It cramps your style as a world traveller if you have to worry about either travelling with the kids or finding some relatives to dump them on. And so in our hedonistic lifestyle of the 1970's children are definitely unfashion- able. There is no room for children in the world of the young swinging professional couple. This group has turned an economic and social decision into a moral one as well. Isn't the world already overcrowded? they ask. Mustn't we do our part to control the population explosion? Isn't it thoughtless to bring a child into this world where they could be killed by atomic warfare, poisoned by acid rain or die from breathing too much leaked chlorine gas? Surely as they grow older the children of the 70's must sense the low priority 1 hey and their friends have in this hedonistic society. Those who argue for abortion and other birth control measures say it is wrong to bring an unwanted child into this world and yet it seems we have a whole generation of unwanted children in the world; unwanted not by their parents, but society in general. Take a look at. children's favourite learning tool for instance: television. After watching hours of television featuring young, unattached swingers from Mork and Mind y to Charlie's Angels the kids must begin to wonder about their own place in society. Why are there no children there? To those old enough to know that television is designed for maximum expo- sure to the audience that spends the most money, the current trend in television is easily understood. Demographic research shows that the people with the most money to spend are the young people without families. They're not interested in children either in their home or on television and thus the kids disappear. Gone are the days when the family with 2.3 kids was the most lucrative market for television advertisers; the days when Father Knows Best, Leave it to Beaver and My Three Sons were the ultimate in programming. And so we have International Year of the Child declared in this era when the child is anything but something to celebrate in our society. It seems. like giving a party to which nobody comes. While the year may emphasize the plight of children in other parts of the world where food, clothing, (Continued on Page 5) THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 21, 1979 — 5 New businesses in Walton BY DEB'i1E RANNEY Walton may be just a small community but lately it's been showing signs of getting bigger as development in the area increases. One of the newer businessess in Walton is Don's Antiques and Gifts, across the street from the Walton Inn, The business is owned by Don Goetz who moved from Kitchener up to the Walton area around June. He worked in Kitchener, and collected antiques and furniture on a part-time basis for six year, but moved up to Walton because he wanted a place in the country. He's a collector of china, glass and furniture, items which can now be purchased in his store and he does take things on consign- ment. Don says that the business is going over fairly well, except that he's finding out that it's a sometime business—meaning about six months of the year. The store is open on Sundays from 12.8 p.m. and Mr. Goetz also opens up some- times on other days when he is working in the store. The store is really a Sunday business right now, but Mr. Goetz said later on, he will think about having the store stay open longer. Currently, he is looking for china cabinets and rocking chairs for the store, One of the more unusual items he now has in his store though, is an 1898 Edison phonograph. A business which has already established itself in Walton, but which recently expand- ed is McGavin's Farm Equipment. McGavin's recently purchased five acres of land on Lot 30, Concession 9 of Morris Township. Owner Neil McGavin explained that they had machinery sitting on top of machinery before, but now all items that are the same can be put in the same row. McGavins have been using this lot since last spring and rented the land until this fall when they bought it, Another new development for McGavin's was a new workshop 40 x 80 for the mechanics. Previous to this, the men worked in the old church shed, but it was too crowded, according to Mr. McGavin. Mc- Gavin's bought this building from the plowing match in Wingham. Walton Welding has been in Walton for two years now, but recently moved to a new location, The business was previously loc- ated in a shop that was owned by McGavin's Farm Equipment across from the Walton Inn but was moved in September of this year according to Elsie Carter, who works there and is the wife of owner Jim Carter. Presently the welding shop is located close to Ryan's Drying, And across from the Walton hall, people may have noticed new construction being added to the building across the way. That building is going to be used as a repair shop by Kirkby, McCallum and McClure Drainage for their farm drainage equip- ment, And it will also be used to store fittings, truck overhaul and will function as a headquarters. Doug Kirkby, a partner in the first said construction of the building started a month ago, and it should be finished by this winter. Although it's not new, the Ryan Corn Drying plant has certainly played an important part in the recent development of Walton. This year there was more corn to dry, and whereas last year it was all done in a month, Gerald Ryan, president of Ryan Drying said this year they had been going for six weeks. On Monday when the Post talked to him, he said the driers would still be going another couple of days or so. The plant stayed open 24 hours a day, but Mr, Ryan said the moisture's been higher this year so it takes longer to put corn through. Two or three years•ago, I swore 1'd never write another column about Remembrance Day. I'd milked every emotion, flattened every cliche, and I thought perhaps it was time to let it fade away, as old soldiers never do. However, 1 reckoned without our vice- principal. Each year, for the past three or four, as Remembrance Day approaches, he sidles up and wonders "if I could have a minute of your time?" That means he wants something. If he wanted to bawl me out, he'd probably say, "Mr. Smiley, I'd like to see you in my office at 3:45." When l reported at that time, he'd likely give me the blast, in front of witnesses, and I'd tell him to go to hell, or shove it where the sun never shines, or something equally vivacious and vulgar. Vice -principals do not easily upset old fighter pilots. But when Dave give me the old soft soap and asks if I could do something about a Remembrance Day programme for the school, I get all soft and gooey and limply agree. When I joined the high school staff, there were plenty of veterans of World War Il.' A bomber pilot or two, a navigator, a radar man, some air force ex -technicians, .and a rabble of former navy and army types.

Instead we deal with the problems of enrollment declines in schools and the other headaches that our lack of importance of children has brought. And Sugar Sr Spice by Bill Smiley Nowadays, I'm just about the oldest veteran on the staff, so I'm stuck with the Remembrance Day hokum. The oldest veteran is a German, who fought in the North Africa campaign, was wounded, and spent the rest of the war in a prison camp in the States. It would hardly do to have him talking to the students about "our sacrifices in two great world wars." He might get carried away and say something like, "If it hadn't been. for that maniac, Hitler, we would have kicked the stuffing out of you." So I'm stuck with it. For a few years, we had a full period programme, with the students making it up. They were awful. Full of folk songs, like, "Where have all the soldiers gone?", and the local Legion marching around on the stage of the cafetorium getting all tangled up in their flags, and the reading of a List of the Fallen. For the kids, it was a period off school, and a sort of bewilderment about what these crazy adults had been up to, in a time of which they knew nothing. So we gradually cut it down. The Last Post was eliminated. I gave such an anti -war talk at one of these sessions that even the students were startled. For the last two years, I've been asked to the question must be asked: who will feed the hungry mouths of the third world in another generation when we have such a small working population in the prosperous west? And who will look after today's swingers in their old age? write a two or three minute "message" about Remembrance Day, full of meaning, poignancy and sentiment. I'd never give an assignment like that to a student. It would be like asking them to give a summary of the Bible in 200 words. However, I'm going to do it again this year, because I am soft in the head, or something. Let us hope that next year, the thing will be reduced to an announcement: "We will now honor our war dead with one minute's silence. On the sound of the bleep, shut up for one minute. Then go to your regular classes." Here is a sample of what I write. It is spoken into a mike by a student who doesn't know how to use a microphone and has a bad cold. This is last year's bit: "When you are young, life is forever. When you are old, Death sits grinning and nodding at your elbow." "Hundreds of thousands of young Cana- dians sneered at that old witch, Death, and offered their most precious possessions, themselves, to the bullets and the shrapnel, the mortars and the cannon. They didn't say to themselves, "I'm going to die so that the students of Blank Secondary School can have gravy on their french fries." "They didn't say much of anything: They just went off to fight against something they thought was evil. "Most of them were just kids, two or three years older than you are. They had the same hang-ups you have: bad marks in math; frustrated love; uncertainty about the future. "Maybe they weren't too bright. Maybe they should have said, 'I ain't gonna get killed in some stupid war over in Europe.' "Maybe. But they went, And they were killed, in their thousands, So that you can have gravy on your french fries. And a lot of other things you take for granted. "Most of us don't want to leave the world without making some little mark on it. Every human being is a precious thing. Whatever you do, you will leave something of yourself behind, even if it is only dust. "Those young fellows who were killed in France and Holland and Italy didn't have much chance of leaving anything behind. "But they left a memory. Once a year, on Remembrance Day, we take a silent moment to think about those laughing boys • and most of them were boys - who went across the ocean so that we could have freedom of speech, open elections, letters to the editor, and gravy on our french fries." What in the world am I going to write this year? 6 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 21, 1979 Australian letter arrives in 6 days Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Jardin spent a few days last week in Meaford with.

If the land becomes part of the village then expanding the subdivision plan may be considered; that is one of expansion. Mr. Dzus suggested that in the future Blyth consider servicing 5 acre plots, Although Blyth councillors said they can't really entice industry in due to high costs of servicing now, after the land annexation they would be able to plan for it (develop- ment.) Mr. Dzus pointed out to those present that many young people are forced to go to the larger centres to find jobs and this leaves smaller areas like Blyth with a high percentage of elderly. The strategy is to provide land and improve the employment opportunities. Morris Councillor Ross Proctor made the help unicef comment that it is "inevitable that industry locates in good farm land". The other directions around Blyth have been consider- ed too rough a terrain for developing anti would require a lot of expensive land fill.

Everyone agreed to have the farm owners involved notified of the intent and Reeve Elston suggested an informal meeting with them, Mr. Dzus was assigned to find out exactly how many acres are involved in the change in assessment, the tax loss for Morris and tax increase for Blyth and if there is any compensation offered to Mt..rris for the land annexed by Blyth.

The efforts of the Ministry over the past twenty years to introduce splake have been a failure, and the tourist industry has suffered serious harm from poor angling, told the committ ee that the constituents of Huron•Bruce arc up in arms over the failure of this program and the Ministry's decision to continue with the experiment. "The natives are restless. The Grey -Bruce arca has been deserted by anglers, You might just as well be out there fishing for passenger pigeons -you just can't find these fish. You spent twenty years and a lot of money to find a fish which could survive the lamprey... but they seem to disappear out of the bottom of the lake," The Legislature's Select Committee on Hydro Affairs has concluded that Ontario's nuclear reactors are "acceptably safe". However, the final report of the all -party fourteen Belgrave UCW There were twelve in at- tendance when the afternoon unit of the U.C.W, met November 13th, Mrs, William Black opened the worship service with a thought for the day, "He who serves another in a community reaps a better place to live, then read scripture from Romans. The New Testament, she com- mented, teaches om-mented,teaches the concept of love and service, Mrs. Leslie Bolt expressed appreciation for the feeling of security given to the Belgrave area by the Kins- men on Hallowe'en, Fellow- ship and service to others are the foundation of the group, The first Kinsmen Club started in Hamilton in 1920 peaceful use of nuclear power and„ absolute safety can never be totally assured," The report makes several recommendations to improve nuclear safety, while pointing out weaknesses in the design, opet ation and regulation of Ontario's nuclear industry. "The committee learned that it is impossible to assure that there is absolute safety in the operation of Ontario's reactors—There is a broad range of possible accidents and subsequent consequences with varying likelihoods of occurence. THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 21, 1979 — 11 Fisherman concerned up, the infected member committee adds "there are real risks in the CP rail freight train, When the train was derailed, a tanker containing lethal liquid chlorine sustained a two -foot tear, it immediately began leaking chlorine and it was feared that explosions of other chemicals being transported by the train would completely rupture the container. The disaster closed three major highways, caused 700 patients to be moved from two hospitals, and something Ifkc half a million people in the area to be evacuated and housed in private residences elsewhere, in high schools, shopping centres, etc. The crippled freight train was one of dozens which pass through the city of Toronto evry day hauling deadly chemicals. Yard Marshals often place , the tanks of dangerous substances between other cars that act as buffers, but the practice is not required by law. Fifty or sixty tanks of deadly chemicals are sometimes strung together, according to a CP Rail official. Brucellosis should be eradicated in Canada in ten years, according to an official of Agriculture Canada. The prediction is based on computer projections on the federal campaign to eradi- cate the disease that causes abortion and reduced milk production in cows. Since the campaign has been stepped number of known herds across the "Even so, given the clear commitment of Ontario Hydro to safety, the past safety record of the existing reactors and the design mechanisms to limit the consequences of possible accidents, the committee found that the risk of a serious accident occurring in any single reactor is extremely small and that the reactors were, therefore, acceptably safe." Catastrophic accidents are very much on people's minds at present, with the potentially very dangerous situation in Mississauga following the accident to a Thanks Kin when twelve young men were brought together by loneliness and a craving for companionship.

Child He said "your sins are forgiven. God is not angry with you; come home and don't be afraid." Mrs. Cecil Coultes, in her study of Japan, began with interesting slides of Pearl Harbour which she visited while in Hawaii. She said there is growing nationalism in Japan. The Yasukuni Shrine was built on the edge of the imperial Palace in Tokyo to honour the war dead. The post-war constitution said that religion and state should be separated so government support was withheld from all Shrines. People are fighting against a movement which would return the Shrine to state control and restore the Emperor to his pre-war status as God. They see the nationalization of Yasukuni as a threat to free- dom of religion guaranteed by the separation of religion and state in the constitution, Shopping for a COLOR TELEVISION The 1980 MAGNAVOX COLOR T.V.

Mr. Henderson has recently stat- ed that a farmer should be allowed a lot on which to retire or to help get his children started on the farm." Merle Gunby, President of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture noted.. Don't forget the Londesboro Poker Car Rally Details Page 13 "These statements appear to run counter to Government policies as outlined in the Food Land Guidelines pub- lication," which states... "If a farmer who has been farming a substantial num- ber of years and who is retiring from active working life needs to sever one lot on which to build a house in which he intends to retire - because the lot may sub- sequently be taken over by others and create problems for adjacent farm operations, the farmer should be encour- aged to consider retirement in a nearby village or town. Alternately, if a farmer wishes to retire to a relocate - able house on his farm, he should be permitted to do so. "If a residential lot ' is required to provide ac- commodation for full-time ;farm help -this may be for hired help or family mem- bers (son or daughter) whose working activity is primarily lcvoted to the farm oper- ttion and where the nature of the farm operation requires this help to be accommo- dated close to the farm. This accommodation should be provided as part of the farm unit rather than on a separ- ate lot.

Both sides claim many of the delays in the negotiations were not due to contract issues but were caused by circumstances neither party could avoid. 1 A provincially appointed fact -finder reccomended that elementary school teachers receive pay raises of 6.5 to seven per cent for the 1979- 1980 school year. The board is offering 3.5 to 4 percent and teachers are seeking 9 to 10 percent. A fact finders report rt • leased last week indicated that contract talks with secondary school teachers centered around two specific areas, money and job security. The report by fact finder David Moore said there are "a large number of' out- standing issues between the parties and in some cases the difference between their re- spective positions is wide", He said it was obvious to him both parties will have to modify their positions "sub- stantially" in order to settle, Morrc said it was necessary for the teachers to recognize the fact that thc board wsa operating under economic restraint but added the board had to realize the teachers' concern for job security was real and had to be dealt with. Moore said the most im- portant recommendation he could make was that each party "sincerely attempt 10 perceive the difficulties faced by the other." Both parties said Moore's comments on the state of negotiations were fair, Both felt thc fact finding exercise had some merit but both indicated the matters would have been settled without the report. Shirley Weary, head of the teachers' negotiating team, said contract talks were "progressing" claiming she was confident a settlement would be reached by Christmas, She said the con- tract talks did not centre around a specific issue claiming unavoidable delays in getting to the negotiating table had as much to do with settlement delay as any issues. Weary said talks were stalled during the summer months and just nicely got going in September when the fact finder was appointed, She said both parties deal with the fact finder and negotiations arc in "limbo" while that is going on. She said both parties are now back to the negotiating table and working things out. John Cochrane, director of education, called the fact tinder's report a "fair summary" of contract talks. adding it would appear the' exercise was needed. He said since the report was completed both parties have been negotiating and are "making more progress." He said the talks have been slow but there was never any concern they would end. Cochrane said money was an issue but added it was "not a big issue", He said financial clauses in the contract were being discus- sed as well as clauses dealing with job security. Moore felt that a cost 01 living clause the teachers wanted was too expensive for the Huron board anti did not consider it to be in the public interest, To protect jobs the teachers suggested ' a reviewed policy for the pupil - teacher ratio, Pupil -teacher ratio determines the number of students one teacher is responsible for in one subject arca. The teachers' proposal would mean the addition of 29 teachers in the Huron secondary panel according to Moore.

"Since statistically so- called retirement homes are used for their original . pur- pose for less than five years, the Directors of HCFA would like to know what proposals you would bring forward to protect the Agricultural in- dustry from these non-farm interests? We would suggest that permitting residential severances in an agricultural area is a very shortsighted policy that has historically caused harrassment of far- mers and created pressures for further development causing serious social and economic disruptions in our agricultural oriented com- munities which are trying to plan meaningfully for our agricultural industry in Ontario."

John Cochrane, director of education, told the board that a recent appeal of the board's education requisition to the village of Bayfield had been appealed.

It's a great invest- ment in our country's future. Every time Canadians buy their own products, they give Canadians work. Right here in Ontario, .manufacturing industries employ about one million people. That's 25% of all the jobs in Ontario. When we shop Canadian, we strengthen the economy of our prov- ince and our country. By purchasing products that say "Made in Canada'; we're develop- ing and maintaining the industrial strengths we need to compete in world-wide markets.

So the next time you're buying something, look for the symbol that says "Made in Canada' Larry Grossman, Minister of Industry and Tourism Ontario William Davis, Premier Buses, boilers needed- B of E The Huron County Board of Education learned Tuesday that any money it docs have for capital ex- penditures in the next five years will probably be uses to replace buses and boilers. John Cochrane, director of education, told the board the county was "suffering from a case of worn out heating equipment". Cochrane told the board that of the nine items listed 'in the five year forecast four involved re- placement or repairs to boilers, one was to purchase school buses and two were to do with alterations to school buildings, Cochrane suggested the board support the recom- mendation of transportation manager R,L, Cunningham to replace six school buses a year for the next five years. Cunningham reported to the board that the county now owns 43 buses and that 30 of those should be re- placed by 1984. The report estimated six buses to cost $135,000 next year and by 1984 estimates another six to cost $216,000. An engineering report on the conditions of boilers at J.A.D. McCurdy Public School in Huron Park es- timates costs to replace three 30 year old boilers to be $42,000, Cochrane said the report indicates the board sliou1dlattempt to• have that work done in the next year. Boiler repairs at Hensall Public School will cost $19,000 according to an engineer's report and Cochrane said the board's senior management felt that structed at the same time. He told the board Colborne work should be done, Scaforth High School is also in need of new boilers according to an engineer's report and estimates to do that work price it at $45,000, Cochrane said the board should look to 1981 to handle that job. Estimated costs to replace worn out boilers at Brussels Public School are $19,000 and an engineer's report indicates that should also be done by 1981. Cochrane said two ad- ditional classrooms should be constructed at Colborne Central Public School by 1981 to replace two portable classrooms. The director said the school also needs a library resource centre, boys' and girls' change rooms and showers and a storage area which could also he con - Children born near Christ- mas often feel cheated so why not celebrate their birth- days on another day -a holi- day or on the birthday of a favourite friend or relative.

High interest rates cost $60,000 Consumers in Huron County may guard against high interest rates through careful spending but it appears taxpayers won't be able to avoid the record rates. Roy Dunlop, superintendent of education for the Huron County board of education, said Tuesday that high interest rates have already cost the hoard about $60,000 and will probably cost more, Dunlop said the board is about $60,000 over budget because of the recent hikes in the interest rate and appears to have little choice but to keep paying the cost. He told the board the methods used to finance the board's operation make bor- rowing a necessity. He said the boad had budgeted about $120,000 to pay interest costs for the year but that quickly dis- appeared when the rates went up. Dunlop explained the methods used by the board to fund its operation. He said the board requisitions money from municipalities in the county but those municipalities don't pay that bill when they receive it. He said the towns and townships collect taxes twice a year and after those taxes are collected sends its portion of the education costs to the board, Until that money is sent by the municipalities the board of education has to borrow funds to pay its bills,That borrowing is now being done at a 15 percent interest rate. Dunlop pointed out that there is little the board can do to get out of its jam. He said if municipalities pay their bill early the board rewards that effortwith a rebate, He added that most municipalities collect their taxes, invest the board of education's money until it has to be sent to the board and enjoy windfall returns, THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 21 1979 — 15 'DAIRY PRINCESS Susan Zielman of R.R. 2, Dashwood, centre, was named Huron County Dairy Princess at the dairy princess ball In Holmesville Friday night.

Put cooked potatoes in a FUELISH QUESTIONS Right or wrong? To save gas, it's best to: - -Turn on the air -con- ditioner rather than open the car windows. - -Warm up your engine for only 30 seconds be- fore driving off. Right, on both counts. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, It's more fuel-efficient to turn on air conditioners In late -model cars rather than open the windows. At speeds of 40 m.p.h. or more, the wind drag from open windows re- sults In more gas con- sumption than using the air -conditioner. Warm engines do per- form best, but keeping an engine running for more than 30 seconds does no good. It takes 20 minutes of warming up to reach maximum ef- ficiency. It's better to keep the engine only running a half -minute or so before you drive off. The engine warms up as you drive. Short trips of five miles or less amount for 15 percent of the mileage on most cars, but con- sume over 30 percent of the gas. Why? Because the trip Is over before the engine begins to operate at peak ef- ficiency. Conserving gas not only saves money but also curbs car exhaust, a major cause of air pol- lution, says the Lung Association. To continue the fight against pol- lution and lung diseases, answer your Christmas Seal letter. It's a matter of life and breath. I -quart casserole. In a skillet rook bacon until crisp.

The only stipulation the lions pressed for was that their banner be in full view. Also discussed at the Blyth Lions Board meeting recently was an agreement to buy only Tuckey Beverage products for the next five years. The decision has been left to the Arena board whether to sign the five year contract. At a regular membership meeting last Thursday, the Blyth Lions gave a grant of S100 to the Brownies organization in the village. Mason Bailey spoke to the Lions about the possibility of having a dentist locating in the village and requested support from the group. Lion Paul Josling won the draw prize, The Lions ended their meeting by going out into the community and canvassing for the CNIB.
