once at home, there's those 24
trips from the trailer to the
house and from the house to the
trailer.
Last summer, we didn't even
try to camp out. It was far more
relaxing just to stay at home.
"The only way we can
camp," I preached to my
beloved family, "is with a fully
equipped house trailer on a fully
equipped lakeside lot which
requires only to have the door
unlocked before you begin living
the leisurely life."
Apparently my loved ones
took my message to heart. I have
been presented with the
house-trailer of my dreams so
that now I have no excuse when
the camping bug strikes. All that
remains is to find the right spot
to locate our home-on-wheels
and we're ready for a summer of
enjoyment,
Now I am assured my family
loves me. They have shown me
they want to get me out of my
large, well-ventilated kitchen and
into a 'cramped hot little trailer
galley. They have helped me
leave my Frank Sinatra records
and bedroom television for the
sound of swinging public
washroom doors and the sight of
neighbors swatting mosquitoes,
How can I thank them for
their generosity? How can I
convince them that I don't
deserve this great sacrifice and
would be content to recline at
home by the air conditioner?

BICYCLE ACCIDENTS CAN BE PREVENTED! Here are some tips from the Ontario Department
of Transport. MAKE SURE THE BIKE FITS THE CHILD. A youngster on a bike too big for him
is five times as likely to be involved in a collision as one on a bike of the proper size. The ball of
his foot should reach the ground comfortably from a seated position. MAKE SURE YOUR CHILD
KNOWS AND OBEYS THE RULES OF THE ROAD. Cyclists must obey traffic signs and must
signal their turns, stops and lane changes , and NO STUNTING OR SHOWING OFF in traffic.
MAKE SURE YOUR CHILD'S BIKE IS IN SAFE MECHANICAL CONDITION, Nuts should be
tightened, moving parts lubricated. For after-dark driving, the bike must have a front light and a
red reflector or light on the rear; plus reflective tape , . . red on the rear fender, white on the
front forks.

CFSIT staff
member
promoted
to Corporal
Nancy Ann Phelan was
promoted to Corporal April 19.
Nancy, an Administrative Clerk
in the orderly Room at CFSIT,
arrived in Clinton fresh from
course at 13orden in October
/1967.
CPL Phelan's hometown is
Moncton, N.B. She graduated
from High School there, and
worked in Halifax and Toronto
before enlisting in the Canadian
Forces,
In September 1968 the
former Nancy Doiron and PTE
Ken Phelan from the Supply
Section were married in the RC
Chapel at CFB Clinton. Ken
became CPL in September last
year to manitain the appropriate
seniority. Nancy and Ken are
both posted to CFB Borden.
Nancy is proceeding to Borden
at the end of May to assume
charge of the CFSIT Advance
Detachment administrative
support service:
On May 1 approximately
1500 farmers of seven locals,
317 South Huron, 352
Northwest\ Middlesex, 312,
Northeast Middlesex, 353
Southeast Middlesex, 354
Southwest Middlesex, 329 North
Lambton, and 306 West Elgin
participated in a give-away
program of many types of farm
products, with the exception of
milk, which Dr. D. A.
Hutchinson, medical officer of
health for London and
Middlesex warned the farmers
they could not give
unpasteurized milk away for
human consumption.,
Randy Collins, vice-president
of Local 317 and project
co-ordinator, and Paul Steckle,
spokesman and director,
emphasized our plight is to
educate the consumer to the fact
that when prices go up, the
farmers do not get any extra
raise.
* Mr. Steckie and''Mr.',Collins
said "We are not here to defy
the law on the milk situation, if
we were, we would have
challenged it, but that's not our
purpose. We wish solely to
inform the consumers.
Mr. John Mcilhargey,
president of Local 312, N.F.U.
said a few months ago farmers
were dumping surplus milk, due
to the present quota system, to
sell it cost more for shipping
than his actual income.
"Now we do not even have a
right to say we will give our own
milk away."
In the three London locations
the Trade Union and Consumer's
Association gave tremendous
support to the farmers.
Information leaflets and a
questionaire was given to each
consumer. First prize was a hog
won by Paul Robert of London
and second prize was a chicken
drawn by Teddy Kremer, The
winner was Keith Van Geel,
Lucan.
Despite the extremely poor
weather there was a remarkable
turnout.
Flower arranging
demonstration
May 14
The• Clinton Citizen's
Horticultural Society will
feature a flower arranging
demonstration at their meeting,
Friday, May 14, at 8 p.m. in the
Clinton Town Hall.
Mrs. Jean McKee, Benmiller,
will be the guest speaker and will
demonstrate the art of arranging
flowers for all occasions. Mrs.
McKee is a graduate of the
Course in Floral Design at the
Royal - Botanical Gardens,
Hamilton. She is also an
accredited flower show judge, so
is well qnalieied, in this, field.
There will also be an exchange
of plants and slips at the
meeting, Everyone is welcome to
attend.
The Horticultural Society are
now busy planning their summer
projects to help beautify
Clinton. Flowers are to be
planted in various locations
including under the Radar
Antenna, around the front
entrance of the Clinton Hospital,
in the outdoor part of the new
solarium at the Hospital, and at
the Cemetery Mausoleum. As
well, geraniums will again be
provided for the beds at the
Clinton Public School.
Anyone wishing to help with
these projects should contact
Mrs. Don Pullen. A Red Maple
has recently been planted by the
Society beside the Cemetery
Mausoleum. This tree is in
memory of Mr. Clifford Epps,
who for years devoted much of
his time and knowledge to the
cause of Horticulture,
Last year on Mother's Day I
was a disaster area. I think I
cried for the greater part of the
day. It wasn't just that my
family hadn't remembered me
with a whole bundle of silly
little trinkets. It was simply that
I was feeling sorry for myself ...
having no mother of my own
alive, no brothers and sisters, no
one in the world to care for me
except my own family . . . and
even they had forgotten me.. .
(Boy, if I keep going in that
vain I'll rust the typewriter
mechanism.)
This year, things were
different. After the horrible
events of last Mother's Day my
family knew enough to make
this year's version more
personalized. They wanted to
buy me something I really
wanted more than anything else
in the entire world ... and bless
their hearts, they found it. It is
parked just outside our
diningroom window.
No,- it, is not ,a- sports
convertible . . . although that is
something I would really enjoy.
And it isn't a bicycle although
I'm wanting one to help me keep
in shape for the day to day
grind.
Actually, it is a 28-foot
house-trailer which is shutting
out all the sunlight from our
usually bright home and
somehow or other, my family
believes this latest purchase will
help me get away from it all for
the summer at least.
I think most of you are aware
that the Keller family enjoys
camping. It is a great hobby in
the summer for people who live
normally. But we've never lived
normally at our home and we
find it a real headache to go
camping by the tried and proven
methods.
We have a tent trailer, you
know, and all the accompanying
gear. Husband finishes work on
Saturdays about 4:30 or 5 p.m,
and I can assure you he's in CO
mood at that hour of the day
after a long, gruelling work week
to pack a trailer and trunk full
of dishes and food and sleeping
bags and clothes and lanterns
and stoves and camp stools and
folding tots and frying pans and
toilet paper etc. etc. etc. to set
off for a Weekend hi the
country. No sireee.
We've tried that. We've
arrived at a park just at dtisk.
We've managed to select a site
by dark and we've even been
able to get the camper -set up
before midnight. Then the
children are hungry and want to
be fed. By the time they're
bedded down, mother and father
are too exhausted to do
anything but retire.
Next morning, there's time
for breakfast, a quick tour of the
camp, perhaps a swim, a hurried
lunch and then begins the
backbreaking chore of packing
up for the trek home — and
NFU food give-away

Only with this distributor-unloadei do you en-
,joy the advantages of true three-point suspension.
Most silo unloaders are either hung from a
single (or looped) cable attached to the center of
the machine or ride on the surface of the silage
with no suspension.
The suspension system of this distributor-
unloader is different. The machine is suspended
from three widely-spaced points so it cannot tip
or tilt.
A hexapod (not tripod) on the top rim of the
silo wall feeds down three high tensile steel
cables just inside the silo wall.
The cables attach to the very outer ends of
three interlocking support arms that extend from
the center of the silo out to the wall.
The silo unloader is attached to these three
support arms and hangs down into the silage.
Suspended in this,way (at three evenly-spaced
points around the wall), it has to cut level. A
one-time adjustment keeps it level from top to
bottom. It can't ride high over hard or frozen si-
lage on one side of the silo and then sink low
into light or unfrozen silage on the other side.
Single-cable unloaders, on the other hand, all
have adjustable weights. These take time-con-
suming adjustments and another trip up the silo
to keep the unloaders cutting level every time the
condition of the silage changes.
True three-point suspension eliminates the
need to adjust weights. This means fewer trips
up the dirty silo chute and less time wasted keep-
ing your unloader balanced and working properly.

Hexapod Support
Because of its unique design, the
hexapod suspension system exerts
from 65% to 70% less outward pres-
sure against the supporting staves of
the silo wail than a tripod does. The
six (not three) legs are wide-spread
so weight is dissipated over 1-1/2

tubular steel legs are factory-assem-
bled with heavy gauge tie plates.
