The 4,200 word speech read by Lieutenant Governor W. Ross MacDonald expressed confidence in attaining a provincial growth rate of 6 per cent but said present and projected unemployment levels of 5.5 per cent are unac- ceptable. From making domestic in- vestment more attractive to Can- adians, to the hazards of snow- mobiles, from parkland and the quality of life to off track betting and reform of the provincial and municipal government struct- ures, from the arts to student employment - all was' included in Premier William Davis' first major legislative progremme- since his Octoi:ler 21st election. The 'speech indicates that the Government is entering a period of constraint and restraint in expenditure, and reflects the Gov- ernment's effort to diminish its $553 million deficit. Following upon its $35 mil- lion' programme of grants, to municipalities for winter works, the Government says it will ex- pand its own Employment for youth programme to take up the summer slack and to compliment .the Federal Opportunities' for youth Programme. The Ontario Government plans to sponsor a conference of federal, provincial and municipal representatives this year in an apparent attempt to speed up neg- otiations between different levels of government. Other main points of the speech were: - - The Government will proceed with proposals to develop the lignite deposits in Northern Ontario which will support a one milliOn kilowatt power plant to help meet eOntario's growing need for power. Ontario will operate' off track betting shops as soon as Ottawa makes the necessary changes in the Criminal ,C ode. - Plans-to r regional governments in Sudbury and Kitchener-Wat- erloo will be introduced. - -The Toronto Centred Regional . Plan will be started as well as the' Design for Development of North-Western Ontario. - The Ontario Development Corp- oration. will develop a new approach to industrial devele, opment in the Province. The effort will be directed more toward encouraging Canadian Industry, but even more sig- nificant, the emphasis will be switched to help small business. and service industries get started and keep going. All in all, it looks like a busy legislative programme with the Government trying to stimulate the economy, yet et .the same time attempting to hold the line on the 553 Million dollar deficit - no small feat for any Government. .

MY TRIP High, high, up in the sky, Where the old birds fly, I'll be on that plane, Even if it's in the rain. Wowl isn't this fun, Let's get out and run, zun, run, Now out of the airport that's so noisy, Into the car that's so cosy. Off we go in a world of:wonder ; I wouldn't stop If it Started to thunder, Watch the historic sights go by, Rome looks better than from up in the sky. Now it's time to say good-bye, To-return try, Now I shall go home And start packing for another trip to Rome. - Joanne Rimmer, Gr. 6 FROM THE ROOF TOP A fire hose, a chimney top, And up abovelhe glistening sky, A building black and grimed with smoke, And in the west a sunset .bright Day's fading, colours die. s, A clothing line bare, the lit- tered ground A black bird homeward bound A garbage can upset Then the twilight dim, ' And the silver moon climbs over the rim. • ' - Jaines Learn; Gr. 6 WINTER SCENE A s I stepped through the front door, the familiar country- side had been transformed in the night into a strange white fairy- land. ,The river Chuckled happily as it swiftly flowed, like school children. dashing out of school, around the thick ice floes. The fence posts appeared like short, fat children with furry puff ball hats. The fluffy snow on the top of telephone., wires resembled delicious whip"cream. The slink- ing bulldozer like a strong giant armadillo burrowing into the ground could barely plow through the drifted road. Brightly painted cutters pulled by handsomely groomed horses moved sliding down the winding, icy road. I rubbed my eyes in wonder at the pure beauty of this magic scene. - Bonnie Storey, Gr. 'IC EMBARRASSMENT! e • The day of the public speak- ing was here ' aed I was , ner- vously • wa sting for my turn to speak. 'Suddenly. I was pushed onto the stake and told to speak. I opened my mouth but all. that was heard was a loud .gush of 'air- and I fell limply to the floor. I was picked tip and carried out to a table where I heard the 'doctor call for glue, a tire patch and a bicyCle pump. He soon had my flat lung patched and blown up. I was then .pushed onto the stage' again. - Unfortunately there was a loud crash as I bleW up and landed in pieces on the floor. When my parts were picked up, Twee again piit on the table and glued to- gether. They pumped me up and pushed me onto the stage. I opened., my mouth but noth- ing came out. i I tried and tried to speak but could not. So back I went to 'the table. Here, after a 'thorough examination theyfound that my voal chords were Miss- ing: They searched the'auditor- luni but they were' not found. TheQ crowd was raising a loud angry uproar, so the doctor took a box, stretched two elastics across it and shoved It down my throat. I was again pushed onto the stage. This time all Went Well until about half way through when I asked for a drink. A kind young man got me a glass of water -which I gulped rapidly. Unfort- , unately, the water ran out from the cracks where I was glued. The water covered the stage, and was , gradually rising. I hur- riedly finished my speech and swam off stage leaving the crowd 'realm- angrily. With my head in the corner, I cried convulsivelyArne every- one told each other 4, at a fool I was. Then I felt a kind tap 9n my shoulder and a young Alan who -was standing behind me asked me if I would step into the office with him. "Oh. No". Now I was going to get it. But the man only smiled at me and kindly asked me, to ap- pear in his and sixty other circus performances. Well, I was a failure but also a winner. - Linda Smith, Gr. 8A CANADA'S EARLY PIONEERS • The story of my early ances- tors fascinates me. Did you ever wonder about the individuals whb came before us, the persons whO laid the. foundation of our country today? They were courageous people who faced life and death in their daily living. They, were willing to come over from a country well established to est- ablish a new colony here. These people began ae civilization in a vastness of nothing but dangers, and hardships. The trip over to the new land was• a difficult one. The small type boat of that day pre- sented a -real health problem on such" tong journey,: But this was no, ing compared to the hardships they were forced to endure to become established in those first vital yearS. The 'filet thing they had 'to do was get inland without any roads or' ridges to help. Their main meal of reaching the int- erior 'wak - by the rivers and hogback hills. The term hogback hills meaning continuous narrow ridges of gravel, sand or clay, continuing for miles with very few breakee They are used today for the' sand and-gravel material they contain. The settlers used these for both entering and com- municating with lakeports. Surviving the first winter was the most difficult. When'the set- tlers first reached the interior, their work list would fall into somewhat this erder. (1) provide, suitable temporary shelter for man and beast (2) prepare materials for housing . out of raw virgin forest with nothing but ,the minimum of tools • (3) animals as well' as humans had to have stores laid in to put them over that first ' vital _winter. This, no deubte-- was the most difficult problem of all. Oxen and horses were extremely scarce and expensive for'alearing land. Neighbours were close friends regardless of race, colour, language or religion, because, having- no national laws, numbers were the only protection they had. They had to have num-' bers to protect themselves against the native Indians, wild animals; fires, and starvation,. . Little instances that • are'un- bellevalbe in todAY's thinking were common occurrences in their everyday lives. An example of this has been handed down to me today. My great-great grand- parents kept a pig in a small corral behind their log cabin. One night they heard a bear molesting the pig. Grandpa-said, "I'm. not going out in the dark with a wild bear." .Grandmother replied in her broad .Scotch, "Thart's . no dorn ' gonna eat '•-no winter's bacon". • ,.. Then she jumped into the pig corral a'd licked the bear until ' he c d out and left. This instance ?evened in Morris Report From Queens Park by Murray Gaunt,Tvl.P.P. The Speech from The Throne on Tuesday, opening the Second Session of the 29th Legislature contained little that was unex- pected or that had not been pub- licly discussed in the past year by Premier William Davis or his Cabinet.
