BY PATRICIA RIMMER The sound of the fire alarm, anibulauice and police sirens, and people talking about an accident_have not been unfamiliar in Seaforth this summer. Sad, but true. It is becoming more and more worry to ge out in cars at eight, and even to stay home for fear of news you plight hear. . , not sure it slows people down much for long, or even stops teenagers from drinking, but it- does make them think.

There will be at least one band, perhaps wearing kilts, and no doubt some spectators will be hoping for a gusty wind to liven up the march. , there may be two fire engines, one old and one new. Both will have sirens and bells blaring. Vintage cars will follow, and 'no country parade would be complete without some pioneer :farm equipment and magnificent horses pulling wagons.

If a spectator ducks the first time, the clown will just circle back and try again. Kids on floats will throw packets of candies, sending kids that line the route scurrying for sweet surprises. Young people on another float may sing songs around a mock campfire - a reminder of the season past. Near the end of the parade will be some ponies pulling wagons. There may ben hint.° or two. And, of course, there will be several horsei and riders. Some of the horses will parade with shiny. .saddles, bridles and all the trappings; some riders will wear trim English riding habits; others will choose silken western' shirts.. and some will wear the traditional cowboy hats •and-bouts-.--:‘ -Bringing up. the, rearis the street cleaner.

Organizers of the program hope to attract new members this year, expand to include Walton Public School, and share more information with volunteers about how children learn. Volunteers participate on a regular, half-day per week basis. Or less if they are strapped for time. They can assist with instruction, clerical duties and in the library or help prepare learning materials and teaching aids. Volunteers can also share any specialized knowledge, skills or 'talents they, might have. If you're interested you can contact Jill Johnston at SPS, (Photo by Campbell) material for historical re- search or geneology buffs. • - -kiyway,-to"ntake a More complete transcription the organizer of the project would like anyone who; ows of any burials without`'mark- . ers in the _past at the „Harpurhey cemetary to give him a call so the information can be included. Dave Kemp is the history 'teacher at the school to talk When I was small I was brought up in a fantasy world of my own. I got lots of things to eat, a new outfit to start school in, warm clothes for winter, cool clothes for sum- mer,iind had lots of friends to talk to. The most traumatic times were when Santa Claus didn't bring the right pre- sents, or someone forgot to come .over to play. These days Seaforth doesn't seem lite such a quiet place to live. Every weekend there is some sort of accident, whether serious or not, reported or not. Even if it is just nicking the paint off -the side of the car door. When you come that close you know it might have been a lot worse. When an accident happens people tend to ask the question: "What if?" Who knows how many times you may have been ten minutes away from where an accident will happen? Or who knows about the time the truck didn't stop at the sign and could have hit you if you had been there. No one knows because you weren't there so it might as well not have happened. It is upsetting to think if someone had taken a differ- ent turn, or waited at the store a few minutes longer, an accident might have been avoided., at least for the time being. T'hi's " al-inner been a bad one for many people. Seaforth District High School lost students who were killed in traffic accidents. It is hard for others who knew these stud- ents to go ahead and get their driver's license, and act as if it never happened, . Because it did happen. I'm give the ' right of way. It might not be your fault. But it would still happen. It has been a bit of a relief to see Seaforth people have not been listed in the weekend accident report in the London Free Press over the past couple of weekends. Just the other day someone was tell- ing me of a morning after an accident this summer. When her father told her of the accident, and that someone was killed, she answered: "Who now?" This is how it has been this summer. One person after another involved in car ac- cidents, whether in town or on the outskirts. There should be something done about these accidents, but is there a real solution? The arena has been condemned for the winter so there will be no dances held there. Per-, haps teenagers will have to drive out of town just entertainment, as was men- tioned in my column last N week. However, Terry John- ston, head of the physical education department of SDHS, has organized a "Concerned Parents Night" at the high school on Thurs., Sept. 17 at 8 p.m. Tiffs might just be a step in the right ' direction for a safer winter, and Summer to follow. Let's hope so. If you know of anyone --celebrating -2their -birthday soon, please send their name.. age and birthday to Birthday Notices, Box 69 or one 527-0240.
