Kick The Habit The Huron-Perth Tubercu- losis and Respiratory Disease Association has forwarded anti- smoking leaflets to all physicians nurses and dentists in thaHuron- Perth area to help them help their patients kick the habit. One leaflet, "Me Quit Smo- king, Why?1, outlines the health hazards of smoking. The second, "Me Quit Smoking, How?" spells out the steps to stop. "Kicking the habit," accor- ding to Dr. G. P. A. Evans, board member of the Huron-Perth As- sociation, "is especially urgent for patients aiready suffering from diseases of the heart and lungs. "But it is important for all smokers to quit smoking. "Although 21 million people have already kicked the habit," Dr. Evans says, "Too many people still smoke. And national surveys show that 84 per cent of the general public think people will not quit smoking until their doctors urge them to. These pam- phlets should help doctors help their patients to quit." Copies of the leaflets are available from doctors or by, contacting the Huron-Perth TB and Respiratory Disease Asso- ciation. Present. Weather Services OTTAWA - In a few more weeks Parliament will recess for the summer, inducing an attack of that habitual Press Gallery ailment - the Cabinet shuffle syndrome. Governments like to shuffle Cabinets when Parliament isn't sitting, so new ministers have the opportunity to grasp their departments before facing .op- position 'questions in the Com- m one; hence summertime is Cab- inet- shuffle time. Remember the predictions last summer of a major shuffle. I know that shuffle became only a minor two-step, but this summer the odds do favor a major shake-up. When Parliamentary corres- pondents write Cabinet-shuffle stories, they seldom do so on the basis of a 'leak." The accuracy of such yarn s with Ottawa datelines can be gauged almost infallibly on the experience and judgment of the writer. He must know the Cabinet ministers, know the- Prime Min- ister's criteria for decision- making, and have a well-tuned political ear. With these assets, a parlia- mentary correspondent has a reasonable chance of predicting Cabinet switches with accuracy. Playing the Cabinet-shuffle game can be an extremely in- teresting political exercise - one that can often be played succes- sfully from your living room armchair. So this week perhaps we Could take a crack at doing it together. ' Start by listing' the Cabinet with present porfolios opposite each name. Now set up four columns headed: Definitely Will Go;Might Go; Switch Likely; and No Switch. When you enter 'names in the first column, consider age, per- formance in portfolio, political compatibility with Prime Minis- ter Trudeau; and health. A Cabinet minister is ap- pointed for three 'main reasons - and he's kept in his job for his ability to continue perform- ing. He must be a good adminis-„ tratpr, able to handle himself in Parliament, and be a politi- cal asset to the party on the hustings. Prime Ministers give varying weight to each attribute, depending on the circumstances, and they also consider individual contributions to the decision- making process during Cabinet meetings. 'In this Cabinet, it's difficult • to put a name in the first column - "Definitely Will Go." Until the' middle of last month Joe Greene's name would ha'e Accepts Drain Petition East Wawanosh council 'met in Belgrave Community Centre with Reeve, Roy Pattison, pre- siding and all the members pre- sent. Resolutions included: That the Belgrave Library remain in the Community Centre Room re rumours of Huron Coun- ty Board moving same. That the "Voelmle Drainage Works" be referred back to ,the Engineer for further informat- ion. That Council accept a drain petition re clean-out on the South Branch of the Hailahan Drain. That Council accept a drain petition from Janies Hunter and Engineer Gamsby and Manderow be notified subject to approval of the Maitland Conservation. That Council accept the tend- er of Roger F. MacEactiern, Mount Forest @ $22,026 re build- ing of Taylor Bridge. That G'eo. 'Radford Con- struction, Blyth 'be awarded the tender re the "raretzke Drain- age Works" at $750. That Township Livestock Val- uators be paid an hourly wage of $2.00' plus mileage. (Minimum of $2.00 on any call). That the Road accounts in ,the. amount of .$9,953.37 and the General Accounts In the- amount of $9,7139 as presented be passed and, paid. been there, but his recent and strident promotion of nationalism indicates he intends to fight to stay in the Cabinet. He could, be successful, al- though, Mr. Trudeau has often stated that he considers nation- alism outmoded and destrictive. The column headed "Might Go" will -include a great many more names - about seven. I'd suggest you pick 'em. Next, fill in the last column - those who aren't likely to switch portfolios. Judge the ministers on their performance again, but keep in mind those that have impor- tant and unfinished business on their books. Finance Minister Benson is one of those, by appearances. So are Justice Minister John Turn- er and Transport- Minister Don Jamieson. About eight names should go in the "No Switch" column. You're left with a list of names in the "Switch Likely" column, and that's where the fun begins. You must take into account each man's ambitions, performance. in past portfolios, and the region of his riding. No Prime Minister can load his ,Cabinet too heavily with min- isters from a particular area, although this one has gone far- ther than most. Some ministers will move to more important ,portfolios;some who are older, but still valued' for the wisdom of their advice, may be kept in the Cabinet, but shifted to jobs which are less. onerous. So there are , the ground rules. When you find ypu can't pigeonhole a name because of lack of information, fly by the seat of your pants and wing it. That's what we do. - INSURANCE Auto, Fire, Life Donald G. Eaton insurance Agency Limited Office in Masonic Block Main Street Phone 527-1610 Seaforth UCW Has Meeting The May meeting of the Burns' U.

For the fourth consecutive year, the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food and the Department of Transport are join- ing forces to present weather fore- casts designed especially to serve the farming population of south- western Ontario. Presented twice daily at 6:30 ,end 1100 a.m., seven days a week, the forecasts are designed to persuade the farmers to use the program as a tool for farm management, says David Pallett of the Ontario Farm Weather Ser- vices, The weather forecasts are, designed to assist the 'farmer - in the timing of his planting and care of his crops during the growing season. For instance, the forecast on wind velocity will 'help the farmer make his decision on whether or not to spray field crops. "This year," says Mr. Pal- " we are better prepared for a three-to-fourzday forecast." Tobacco farmers find the ser- ' vice particularly useful as their crops are greatly affected by weather. With the assistance of the weather forecasts they can schedule the planting and Care of their crops more effectively. Forecasters also hope. to pre- dict the possibility of disease and insect invasions, says Mr. Pal- lett. For instance, the hatching of the red mite is closely tied to temperature and humidity. An accurate prediction of the hatch- ing date will .give the farmer a " chance to take preventive' mea- sures. . The forecasts will continue through the' growing season until October, says Mr. Pallett, to give farmers the advantage of accurate weather predictions duriqg the crucial harveet season. This. .year, 17 radio stations, including one Toronto station with Canada's largest radio audience, have included the farm weather forecast in their daily program- ming.
