Mack Creek Printing
Office restored
The Black Creek Printing
Office, the newest addition to
the 25 restored, pre-Confedera-
tion buildings at historic Black
Creek Pioneer Village, was
officially opened June 18 by
William Kinmond, Queen's
Printer and Publisher for the
Province of Ontario.
The Printing Office will make
known to visitors to Black Creek
the important role played by the
weekly newspaper in a typical,
growing pioneer community, It
will also bring to the visitor the
philosophy of the early printers,
including their desire for a free
press and a newspaper which
told the whele truth —.regardless
of the consequences.
All the main aspects of. the
printing profession of the period
around 1867 will be shown in a
living atmosphere by the Black
Creek printer as he operates
several working presses of the
period.
The press has had a
tremendous influence on social
and political changes which
occurred in Ontario over the
past 170 years, and the Black
Creek Printing Office will show
how local vilhge printers helped
shape and keep in healthy
balance the culture of this
nation as it developed.
Printing equipment in the
new office includes a Hoe
cylinder flat bed press which was
donated recently by W. B.
Murkar, former publisher of the
Pickering News, and two
Washington flat bed presses.
The Hoe press was originally
owned by the British Whig
newspaper founded in Kingston
in 1849, and was later used at
the Whitby Gazette and the
By golly it is the first of July •
and 1971 is officially half
gone. Isn't that a unique way to
start a column which has to do
with smoking?
I was leafing through the
morning paper today and
discovered the picture of, a 17
month old child " from
Normanby, England. The baby .
. . I'm sure most mothers will
agree that he is still very much a
baby at 17 months . . . was
photgraphed as he puffed away
on his pipe full of tobacco. The
accompanying lines told me the
little guy had been enjoying the
smoking habit since he was just
12 months old. What do you
think of that?
His father is the secretary of a
pipe smokers' club. He feels it is
better for the little fellow to be
smoking than to be eating
candy. I'm just enough of a fool
to say the youngster • would
benefit more from meat, milk,
vegetables and fruit and an
afternoon nap in the fresh air
than either pipe smoking or
candy.
1 really cannot imagine any
mother or father teaching a
youngster such a bad habit as
smoking. True, pipe smoking is
not considered to be as
dangerous to the health as
cigarette smoking, but why on
earth would any parent get
pleasure from seeing a toddler
pulling on a pipe stoked with
burning tobacco any more than
he would methodically teach
him profanity instead of tria-tria
and da-dal It just isn't natural.
Our 15-year old son said he
Would dearly love our
permission to smoke. He is no
different than most boys his age
I suppose. We know he takes the
occasional cigarette and I'm
convinced that when he is
particularly flush on payday, he
may even purchase a pack of the
obnoxious weeds.
Whenever I converse With him
concerning the smoking habit,
tell him what f discovered about
it while I was hooked loci
tobacco — It is dirty, expensive,
offensive to others and
unhealthy, I remind him it is
much easier never to start than
to stop once you've begun
and he listens and nods
knowingly.
Then he tells me that at
school, there are plenty of films
and piles of pamphlets available
to tell you all about the ugly
smoking habit. lie says that his
Pickering News. It has the
capacity to print 1,250
newspapers per hour as
compared to only 200 copies per
hour for the Washington presses.
The Printing Office is located
in a portion of the Kettleby
Temperance Hall, which was
moved to the Village in 1967,
The 1850 building is of Greek
revival style architecture and has
been restored to the 1867
period.
It is typical of many early
buildings which over a number
of years were used for a variety
of functions, including printing,
since it was not uncommon for a
printer to move into a
community and use any
available structure for his
printing office.
The building was purchased
and restored ,through donations
to the Authority from Coca Cola
Ltd., the Ontario Department of
Education, and others. Major
donations of equipment came
from Mr. Murkar, Edwin Brown,
of Woodbridge, the Markham
Economist and Sun, and Western
Technical-Commercial School.
Dr., James Johnston, editor
and publisher of Canada's oldest
weekly, the Cobourg
Sentinel-Star, which was first
published in 1831, also donated
printers' benches, stones, type
cases and type, This includes one
of Canada's largest collections of
early wooden type which dates
back to a time when Canada was
still using the pound sterling as
its currency. Mr. Roy Gurney,
University of Toronto Press,
acted as special advisor on the
restoration of the Printing
teachers and the school medical
authorities save no effort to
discourage him concerning
smoking ... but he persists.
Why? Not because he enjoys
smoking. Not because he needs
something to do with his hands.
Not because he is prone to
over-weight. Not because he is
nervous and tense, Not even
because all his friends do.
Woul you actually believe
that our son smokes because it
makes him look older? That's
right. Our mature and well
adjusted boy who is tall and
muscular smokes to give the
impression that he is older than
15 years. How's that for
common sense in the face of all
the knowledge about the
harmful effects of smoking
which are available to the kids
these days?
I decided that since the kid
was smoking anyway, he might
just about as well smoke at
home. Some folks are not in
agreement with that theory but
somehow, I thought that was the
best way to deal with a situation
like that.
So I re-opened the smoking
subject one day with Our son. I
told him that if he insisted on
ruining his health and fouling up
the air, he might as well smoke
at home in our presence than
sneak around in restaurants and
side streets with his fags.
He looked at me with a
wide.eyed stare which bordered
on terror. In that instant I
realised that our son did not
really WANT to smoke and that
by inviting him enjoy his vice in
our home I was actually
encouraging him — daring him if
you like — to continue the habit
against his better judgement. I
was being no help to him at a
Wile when he really needed
assistance, On the contrary, I
was giving up and making it
more difficult for him to break
off:
And that's what I think about
the father mentioned in the
newspaper who is teaching his
little lad to smoke. It may seem
like the cute and harmless thing
to do today but someday, that
boy may be sink or physically or
Mentally weakened by the habit
and he may learn to hate his
father for letting hiM down
when he needed him 'most. And
that's when Old pop May wish
he'd given his son a teething
biscuit instead of a pipe.
The Summerhill Ladies' Club
held their June meeting at the
home of Sandra Westerhout. The
president opened the meeting
with a poem, followed by the
Creed and Lord's Prayer. Fifteen
members and one visitor
answered the roll call.
Thank-yous were received
from Mrs. Lovett and the S.S.
No, 4 Club.
An invitation was sent from
the Londesboro W.I. to attend
their June meeting.
The July meeting will be held
at the home of Margaret Wright.
The roll call will be "Paying Of
Fees".
The lunch and program will
be looked after by Donna and
Vera Gibbings and Margaret
Good.
Another youth
movement
It's another youth movement!
Between 3,500 and 4,000 urban
young people will visit Ontario
farms throughout this summer
for periods of one week each.
It's newt The Urban-Rural
Exchange Program — 1971, an
idea of many youth leaders, is
fast becoming a reality. This
exchange program, developed by
the Ontario Government's
Interdepartmental Committee
on Youth, is being activated
through the Extension and
Home Economics Branches of
the Ontario Department of
Agriculture and Food.
The main objective of the
program is to provide a learning
experience for urban and rural
youth, ages 12 to 15. The
responsibility of the host farm
family will be to include the
urban young person in the
regular farm life so that he or
she will receive a serious insight
into the business of farming —
an ideal opportunity for Ontario
farmers to make their fellow
urbanites aware of the
agricultural situation in 1971. In
return, the anticipated new
friendships will enable the rural
young people to visit the city at
some future date arranged
between the families involved. In
this 'way the farm youth may
receive a better insight into the
problems and pleasures of city

program will be made through

schools from those aged 12 to

of 20,000 or over.
The program's success? — Just
