demonstrates how this Jacquard loom uses punch cards to
determine the woven pattern — even though the loom was
built in the 1840s. The loom, originally built for John
Campbell, one of Canada's first weavers, was sitting in a barn
until it was donated to the Centre. Judi, an Ontario Art
College graduate, has worked part-time on the loom for more
than a year to put it into proper working order for
demonstrations in the Science Centre this summer.

A Clinton News-Record, Thursday, July 29 f 1971
"Imaginative, musical"
Dennis is eight, a healthy, robust, extremely active lad.
His background is Indian and white. He likes •playing
football and baseball and is a great hockey enthusiast.
When no games are going on, he's likely to he riding his
bike. He learned to swim last summer.
This handsome youngster is very musical and can en-
tertain himself for long periods by playing the drums —
at which he's quite good — or listening to records. In
fact, he's rather a loner except for team games; he'd
rather he on his own.
Dennis is bright. imaginative, creative and a good con-
versationalist. but because of various unhappy experiences
he finds. it hard to trust adults. Ile has difficulty concen-
trating in school. Though he can do his academic work,
and he passed into Crack :I. the distractions of an open'
class system created problems for him. Ile works touch
better with the support and encouragement of an inter-
ested adult.
This young lad will be a rewarding son for a mother
and father who have patience and understanding, and
who will give him security. opportunitieg — and love. To
inquire about adopting Dennis please write to Today's
Child. Department of Social and Family Services, Parlia-
ment Iluildings. Toronto 182. Fur general adoption infor-
mation, ask your local Children's Aid Society.
The 32nd Lawson-Clark
Reunion was held on Sunday,
July 18, 1971 at Kinburn
Forrbsters' Hall with
approximately 75 persons in
attendance,
The sports were in charge of
Mr. and Mrs. Chuck Tilsten and
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Medd with
winners as follows: candy

While some black students
waited on the south side of the
Oklahoma capitol building for
the governor to speak to them,
some white students were
waiting in an auditorium on the
north side of that building for
the governor to speak to them.
The govenor appeared before
the white students and offered
to answer any questions. The
first question was why he had
not spoken to the black
students. The governor replied
that he had three times offered
to speak to the black students if
they would lower their personal
black flag and agree to meet
under no flag but the American
flag.
Not once did the govenor
deprecate or bemean the blacks
who sought to intimidate the
gubernatorial office. He did not
deny the reality of their
greivances and of the inequities
in our struggle to build a society
of free and equal men. He
simply spoke of the need to
respect the processes of law and
order (which in turn must hold
the power of the governor and
police in check). He made
obvious that the alternatives to
legal procesSes are tyranny and
repression or anarchy and the
chaos of brute force.
There is a real parallel in this
situtation and the growing sense
of anarchy in church loyalty,
The youth of today have
As part of the University of
Waterloo, School of
Optometry's program of delivery
of vision care services to the
Indian peoples of Ontario, Dr,
John Longstaffe, Optometrist,
of Seaforth and Clinton, has

at several of the reservations
administered from the Thunder
Bay and Sioux Lookout Zones

National Health and Welfare.
The School of Optometry has

been living under the witness ,of
a generation of adults who have
not hesitated to deny any power
or discipline beyond their own
comfort, ambition or greed.
Let some obligation or
mission in the church become
too demanding and the church
members launch rebellion and
mutiny. This does NOT mean
that the church is always right.
It warns that the answer is too
often to deny one's loyalty to
the Kingdom of God if it is
going to place real demands on
personal commitment.
It is more profane to speak of
tithing in the church than to
speak of war,
It is more of an insult to call
members into account for not
attending than to say they were
not missed at all. One church
which sent reminders to
members of its official body
who missed a Sunday was met
with intense hostility, even from
some employers who would not
hesitate to fire employees for
missing to go fishing or sleep
late.
It is more hostility-provoking
to dance and shout for joy at
salvation than to sleep.
It is more immoral to send
beer to boys in their barracks
than to send them to war.
But the person who hopes for
heaven without loyalty is like
the welfare mother who bears
children to get welfare money!
elicited and many individual
members of the profession have
responded by taking time away
from their busy practices to
provide a sufficient amount of
qualified personnel to fully meet
the program's requirements.
The program supported by
the Department of National
Health and Welfare's Medical
Services Branch is part of a
planned system of delivery of
continuing health care to this
important segment of the
Canadian population, The
system involves all Ontario

Wednesday afternoon at the
22nd annual octogenarian (over

Transportation, the variety
program and lunch was supplied
by the Club with Mr, Norman
Speir of Huronview assisting
with the program.
The Ethel and Molesworth
Women's Institute were hosts for
the July birthday party on
Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. R.
Jones was master of ceremonies
for the afternoon and led a lively
sing-song. The variety program
included several musical
numbers by Norman Birne, Cecil
Bateman, David Dound, Mrs.

Rich men make better drivers
than poor men.
Maybe. But there is growing
evidence according to the people
who make expensive Jaguar
sports cars.
Says the Public Service
'Division of British Leyland
Motors Canada Limited from a
study done by Professor F. A.
Whitlock, a psychologist at
Queensland University, the man
with little property, no bank
account, no basic responsibilities
— in effect a man with nothing
to lose — may be more liable to
cause an accident, even death on
the highway.
The Professor says he has
evidence which shows that such
a man is more likely to regard
other road users as a threat to
the amount of road his car
occupies or possesses.
On top of this he believes
there is a strong link between a
high proportion of people
occupying rented
accommodation and high rates
of road deaths.
People who own expensive
cars — such as Jaguar —
invariably have a home, cottage,
family and some money in the
bank. In other words they have
something to lose.
The Professor also, in his
and readings by Mrs. Miln,
Reiroes, Following the program
gifts were presented by the
institutes to 26 residents having
birthdays in July with Mrs. Mary
Johnston celebrating her 97th
birthday, Mr. And Mrs. Jim
Barrie who celebrated their 54th
wedding anniversary this month
were presented with roses by the
ladies, Jim Barrie thanked the
hosts for the party on behalf of
the residents and lunch was
served.
The Salvation Army Bank of
Wi n g ham entertained the
residents on Thursday Family
Night with a concert outdoors.
Mrs. 0, Armstrong, who
incidentally has two
grandchildren in the band,
thanked the group on behalf of
the residents. It is hoped,
weather permitting, to hold a
band concert each Thursday
evening during the summer as all
the residents are able to enjoy
the program either out on the
lawn or being in the room on the
west side of the building.
special study "Death on the
Road", shatters the car as a sex
symbol. He says the car may
attract women not directly
because it embellishes the male
driver's allure with its exciting
shape and speed, but because the
car and the road it occupies is a
piece of territory. Women want
men who can take and hold
territory, he says.
After surveying the United
States, Britain and 25 other
countries, the Professor is now
studying the links between rates
of road deaths, and of homicide
and suicide.
And while he is Working on it
he wants drivers to be more
considerate, give way to other
drivers, and to politely wave
their thanks while they are
giving way "to appease
aggression".
