Hugh is giving two piano recitals befere trying his music exam, the Pule .rainaticet of ten years of lessons. It's Oust about the culmina- tien of the old man's credit in 'these parts, .too. All it involves is the rentals of two halls, the Printing of two sets of d_riveta- tions and programs, and the purchase of new suits and dresses for the whole eamily.. LNeri, at that, I could fight my way out of the morass of bills and face the future, shaken but game, if this were the end of the affair. Put I learned, in a short but devastating exchange with my wife, that it's only the begin- ring. "Well", I beamed, "at least it'll be nice not to have to pay for lessons next year; what with all the expenses of sending him to college." "Don't be eillie" she snapped. "Of course he's going to go on with his music next year. He's scarcely begun. And I reeled' out of the room, speechless. I could see the fu- ture: old dad pumping the treadmill for the next ten years' in a welter of music lessons at $13 a rattle and university fees- at $1500 a year. You see, just as Hugh gets out of college, his sister, who has also takes piano lessons at the same tariff, will be ready to begin.

He did. "-'Smiley, old boy," he chor- tled, there's nothing to it. But you've feegotteti a few itenes. First of all, your son gets mar- vied in third year college and you subsidize them and the baby, until 'he graduates. Then there's your daughter's wed- ding. Knowing your wife, I fi- gure that it will cost you one cool grand. Then your son, and your son-in-law, will -take turns hitting you up for a couple of thousand for down payments on a house or funiture' or a second ea-1;. or something. "It's not that they're grasp- ing," he went on, chuckling. "It's just that this is the way the system works' nowadays. They'll be -making good money, but they won't have any credit, and you have. So they'll use yours." "But when do I start paying off my mortgage on the house and putting by for my old age?" I whimpered. - "Don't worry about that", he twinkled. "You can always re- finance 'your mortgage at 18 per cent interest. And I would- n't worry about your old age. By the time you've paid to have your grandchildren's teeth straightened and" (here he posi- tively cackled) "paid for their first ten years of dancing and skating and music lessons, you Won't have 'any old age left," All I could do was quote from. Hamlet, "For this relief Much thanks," and go quietly off to check my insurance pol- icies, and look for my wife's bottle of sleeping pills. Wesley-Willis UCW Group Holds Plenary Session Mrs. K. Bennett, program convener of the IJCW of Wee- ley-Willis United' Church was in charge of the first meeting of 1965. After a short invoca- tion a hymn was sung followed by a scripture les'son, read' 'by Mrs. Bennett who also gave the meditation and led in. prayer. A New Year's message corn, piled by Mrs. McCreath w a s read by Mrs. N. Holland, and a poem was read by Mrs. Ben- nett. Miss Kate McGregor, Dreg- dent-elect for the coming year, took the .chair aad called on Reve .Park who conducted the installation service' for the new officers,- The minutes of the previous meeting were read by the secre- tary, Mrs. G. Rathwell, and 'ap- proved. A committee consisting of Mrs. Oliver, Mrs. W. Jervis, Mrs. Park, Miss B. Swartz, and Miss McGregor, was appointed to approve the refurnishing of the church parlor. Instead of a St. Patrick's Day tea and 'bazaar, it was de- cided to hold a Spring and Autumn Thankoffering, and fowl supper will be held Oct. 20. Reports were given by con- veners. of various gioups. The president announced the Minima meeting. 'will be held Jan. 20, with the social com- mittee in charge of the lunch. The World Day of Prayer will be held March 5 in the chapel at RCAF Station Clinton. The Meeting was closed with prayer and a hymn. Fidelity Unit Meet Attended By 19 Members Nineteen members attended the January meeting of the fidelity Unit, answering roll call Unit, answering 'the roll cal] with a scripture verse on "Life". Ws. L. Jervis Was as- sisted In the Worship service by Mrs. N. Holland and Mrs. B. Hearn. Mrs. Jervis presented a double topic. The first part was a discussion of the first chapter of "God and His Purpose", deal- ing with the subject 'Religion and Life". The second was a resume of the biography of Dr. Darby, one of 'the early mis- sionaries to the Indians of our own west coast. This book, en- titled "natty of Bella Bella", may be 'borrowed from the Clin- ton Public Library. As a means of increasing their gleings, 'the members of the unit decided to use mite boxes this year, each member to place a cent a day in her box. 0—, Seatel Evidence Sways Suit An interesting court case has raised the possibility that drivers who fail to put on seat belts may be held legally "negligent" in the event of an accident leading to per- sonal injury. In this connection, the On- tario Safety League points out that although a seat belt normally protects only the wearer, in rare cases a driv- er's failure to use a belt may lead to a collision involving many people: For instance, a side-swipe collision, may throw the driver out of the car, or away from the controls, leav- ing the vehicle to go on to a head-on crash with another car; if the driver is belted in he remains at the controls, • and may be able to avoid a second collision, The report of the count case comes from N.S.C, magazine "Traffic Safety": "The drive Ito get people to use—rather than sit on—their seat belts recently received assistance from the courts in Sheboygan, Wis. ' A. woman was suing for in- juries suffered in an auto- mobile accident. Although the car she was riding in was equipped with seat belts, at the time of the accident she had not been wearing one, The judge reminded the." jury that, 'according to Wis.. consin law, new ears sold in the state must have seat belts. "It must follow that the leg- islature intended that these seat belts be used", he added. The jury found the Woman negligent for not using her belt and deducted ten per cent from the damages awarded her. This was the first time a jury 'had been asked to take the Use of seat belts into ac- count. The jury's decision to drr eo may well seta preced- ent If so, many drivers who refuse to wear seat belts to protect their lives may buckle. up to protect their pocket books." I have the type of mind that while I am sitting before a TV set feeling the duck bumps along the top of my arm react to "Train of Murder" I am also rearranging in my thoughts the fact 'that "tall oil" is being. shipped by CN to the West Coast,' Where it will eventually find its way to Japan' for re- finement. While I am trying to con- centrate on "who done it" an- other nook or corner under my scalp is trying to absorb what tall oil really is. I suppose the two have some sort of an assoc Wean in my mind for it isn't so long ago that I was stand- ing on a rampart overlooking Hinton, Alberta, watching great plumes of smoke belching from the plant of Northwestern Pulp & Power Ltd, It was a lonely and beautiful scene and I rem- ember remarking to my travel- ing iompanion "Gee, what a spot for a murder," -So perhaps my mental process isn't so far fetched after all. Before I tell you about tall oil, you might like to learn a little about the story which has appeared in the CBC slot tab- bed "The Serial". I missed the first episode simply because I was one of hundreds waiting patiently in Union Station, Tor- onto, while the railways tried to accommodate hundreds w h o had had to abandon other means of transportation be- cause of a dense fog that en- shrouded much of the Great Lakes area. However, I caught up with this thriller diner on New Year's Eve and realized I was visually aboard my fav- ourite mode of travel. In my considerable travel ex- perience I have known of sud- den death, birth, romance and personal tragedy aboard trains but, fortunately, the only mur- der I've 'become acquainted with is this one, born of the brains of Kay Hill, well known Hali- fax writer. Much of the five episode's of 'this mystery-comedy were set against the background of ON's Super.continental train en route from Vancouver to Mont- real. In fact, dt was while Kay Hill was making this trip by CN that she conceived the idea for the play---u drama where all the action takes place en the train. The new serial fea- tured Don Francks, Beth Mor- ris and a cast of over 50. Kay Hill is well known in. the Maritimes and nationally for her comedy, Three to Get Mar- ried, arid for the. series on In- dian legends, Gloos'cap and his People. And Now For Tall 011 It says here in a brief news 'release that a new' export moverient for Canada's public- ly owned railway has begun. It is the result of a. long tern: -transaction between the pulp and power company at Hinton, mentioned above, and the Mit- sui Co. Ltd. Vancouver, to ship the first-ever "tall oil" to Jap- an. Tall oil is a fatty acid resin, a by-product of the pine forest industry. The initial crude shipment left VatiCativer aboard the MS IVIaltolutru Marti. Plans call for additional monthly Ship- ments for the rest of the five. year contract: The Oil, from North-Western's erude tall oil rovpmf, and Obogt a helf,"bleb long, Anteentee are long and slender, as are three apipao-14.gga (briotle the tails) at Mar. ,$ilverfitsh. are 414, fomAily a4vor ,ecriPte-. .fleebrate .are grayish, rootWI, with darlr, er ,appits, The farmer prefer a moist environment with temp- eilettreee of 71) sto $0 cleigraie F„ but .raay occur generally in- a building.
