(Phof By Wilma Oke) I et 'tkih- ewt. to yol, Despite a postal strike the publishers will make every Wert during the strike to ensure that subscribers continue to receive copies of The Expositor. In most rural areas rural couriers will continue to serve their routes and {arrangements are being made to move copies' of The Expositor to area post officetj so they may be distributed by the • local offices and couriers. Copies of each week's issue will continue to be available at the usual outlets in the area. Correspondehts are asked to co-operate and either send their m eekly news by phone or messenger. In some cases it will be possible to arrange to pick tip news stories from corres- pondents. ' During the strike period mail for The Expositor should not be dispatched if en route it goes to other tha'h the Seaforth post office - otherwise it may become caught in a central distrib ution office such as Stratford, Kitchener or London.

Dr. Miller spoke of the teacher being the source of insecurity and .anxiety by giving an assignment that is too difficult. He outlined how teacher's personal problems can be the cause when stress will send out signals through the classroom. He advised the teacher to be honest and explain to the pupils: "I've had a bad morning", and the children will be able to cope with the teacher's .behaviour. One of the causes of stress for a teacher is not having the tactical knowledge to deal with a problem such as too large a size of class, a "If you feel good tve 35, you teaching 20 children, then may not have the tactical background to cope with 35." Dr. Miller suggested many ways of quieting a fidgety child 'before behaviour gets out of hand including the following tecOniqueS.' of standing near -(Continued on • Page 12) (by Wilma Oke) "Misbehaviour is a symptom, not a cause" Dr. Anthony Miller, Chief Psychologist at . the Goderich Psychiatric. Hospital told a group of teachers attending a workshop on discipline during the professional development day held by the Huron-Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board at St. Patrick's School in Dublin Monday. He said children do not behave badly because they have an evil spirit in them but because they are anxious and insecure. As they become more anxious and insecure they become more undisciplined, he continued. Dr. Miller said. one cause for misbehaviour might be the social system within a class. He said in the social system it is unnatural for a large group to get together but it is natural for a small group of six or seven to get together.%-le stated some teachers try to break up a 'natural group.in'a 'classroom -- those four at the back_of .the News paper people are sup- posed to be something like the mailmen of old. You know, neither rain nor hail nor sleet will keep them from their appointed rounds. • Expositor advertising manager Dave Robb certainly performed beyond the call of duty early Monday morning. While the editor, whose job it is to cover fires and the Me, ignored the alarm ringing a block away and slept sounerly, Dave apparently dragged himself out of bed to take pictures before five a.m. And even though it was raining Dave bravely left his car and walked over to the burning barn to get a photo of the firemen in action. Only problem was, it was so dark out, what with the smoke and the rain and the hour being five a.m., that Dave didn't notice the fence that stretched out in front of him. He took a giant step towards the action, ran into the fence and landed on his rear on the ground, camera, and all. • Ignoring the grins and guffaws from a couple of firemen who saw his mishap, Dave showed a true newsman's perseverance, and cooly got up, and took his photos. That's the kind of dedication this newspaper and this town needs. Yours truly would have probably given up in frustration and gone home to bed. The postal strike is a disaster for the newspaper business, like many others. If it continues even . for a month the staff will' have to move out to accommodate addressed and ready to go papers that will have to be `stored here. But personally, we think the strike has some blessings. Think of all of us who'll get a few weeks respite from bill paying. We can write their cheques. We can even put them in the mail box. But they aren't going anywhere for awhile anVour bank balances can stay undinted. The night before the strike started, we stayed up late paying bills. The cheques are in envelopes, ready to mail. The whole exercise turned out to be useless though and we're afraid that Bell Tel and Union Gas will just have to wait. Bell will be doing alright anyway, picking up more receivables in the form of phone calls now that letter writing is obsolete. The strike doesn't r eally get us off the hook. In fact, it probably causes worry for a lot of people who like to pay their bills on time. But it gives the illusion of an extra 30 days, or 13 or five. The other personal boon that we get from the strike is an excuse to friends to whom we owe letters. There's no more naggihg guilt whenever we have a spare minute that "I've got to answer so and so's letter." We can answer it, but she won't get it. And who knows how old the news would be by the time the mail actually gets through? As long as the strike lasts we don't have to worry about our failure to answer letters ... it's like a holiday- Again we're sure that the lack of mail must really hurt people like lovers who are far apart and families .who, write oftener than our family does. A letter from a loved one is, after all, a pretty exciting thing. But look on the bright side. If you don't get any mail, you don't have to answer it. That should add at least an hour to everybody's day. 6 Something to Say by Susan White •The'mail strike's not all bad uraclean takes the soil OUT! SPECIAL 38900 Reg.
