HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1972-02-10, Page 2Monday will be Valentine's Day for another year. I'm not expecting any special recognition on that occasion from my husband because he's not the incurable romatic he would need to be to get excited about hearts and cupids. But if my husband were buying me something expensive for Valentine's Day, I know what I'd be asking for. I'd want want one of those new ovens on 'the market which bake potatoes in five minutes, a roast in 20 minutes etc. etc. Where did I get my information? I thought you'd never ask. Just last week I attended a lecture delivered by a home economist with Ontario Hydro. This gal was using the "Live Better Electrically" slogan and believe me, she was putting ideas into my head and into the heads of all the women who were present. She told me what I've been longing to hear for years and years. She said that within the next decade or so, housework as we know it today will' be non- existent. In.fabt, the only thing that will limit the services we can have through invention will be --dollars and cents. Do you know, for instance, that the average housewife now spends nine years of her life washing dishes? I can believe it...and that's based on doing dishes three times a day. At our house—and many other homes I can think of— dishes are a regular routine four and even five times daily. Well, take heart girls. If you have a dishwasher now, you are one step ahead of the rest of us, But one day, judging from what this informed home economist told me, that dishwasher won't be needed. There just won't be any dishes to do. That's right. She was explaining about special chips which are coming one day soon. These chips 1 understand, will be easy transformed into dishes for your table at a flick of a switch. You can produce just enough dinner— ware for your table for each meal arid then after dinner, you simply IIINNS11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Deadline for tax savings on registered retirement savings plans Deposits made by February 29, 1972 are tax free for 1971 returns Victoria and Grey Trust offers you three tax savings retirement plans. —an "equity fund plan" designed for greatest capital appreciation —a high cumulative income plan —a Guaranteed Investment Certificate plan fully guaranteed as to principal and interest Start Retiring today at Victoria and Grey WCTORL4 and 00 GREY TRUST COMPANY SINCE 1080 Lealsinci Hifi, Manager Elgin and Kingston Streets a Godetich 524-1381 111111111i1111101111111110111ffilluillmi1U11111111111111111111 BUILDING A FILM PHANTASY National Film Board director Co Hoedeman amid a child's dream world of building blocks. Over 2,500 colored blocks are used to create a phantasy city for an NFB short puppet film. Using a stop-action technique of shooting (single shots on motion picture film), Hoedeman's story tells of the adventures of a boy and a girl in a city inhabited by a dragon. Hoedeman, last year created "Matrioska" a production employing the same technique as his latest film, which was awarded the Blue Ribbon of the American Film Festival in New York. Study shows children can influence parents to wear seat belt Yntonia Club meeting held The Clintonian Club met in the town hall on Thursday afternoon, Feb, 3.

The next meeting will be held in the town hall on Thursday afternoon March 2. p 'the SALVATION ARMY DEPOT 15A Rattenbury St, E. Clinton BY MARE Rom ', Let no one say Clinton is a dull place, at least not this Week, for there is an activity of some kind for almost everyone—cards, bingo, outdoor activities, ice Slow, dancing, etc. Not the least of these is the carnival to be held Saturday night in the arena. Throw a costume together, grab your skates and take part, It is for everyone young or old and should be fun though not much has been said about it, There will be prizes for best costumes. This is hearts and flowers weekend too, And we know of several who have'birthdays. On Valentine's Day or on a day. Very Close. Some Of those celebrating Valentine birthdays are Mrs. Effie Finley, Mr. Herb Oakes, Mr. Art Groves, Mr, Tom Leppington and Barbara and Marg Rudd, But a more exceptional group of people have reached far more important birthdays. They will all be 90 years or better, Mr, Gus Harris was 90 on Feb. 7; Mrs, John Mulholland will be 90 on Feb, 12 and Mrs. A. McCartney has her 90th birthday on Feb. 22 while Mrs, Adam Cantelon will be 91 on Feb. 12. Our congratulations to them all and many happy returns. GIVE-. ct) so more will live HEART FUND dispose of the soiled dishes. As I understood it, the dishes will simply disintegrate via some special process. Ecology you know, And stoves. Bless the manufacturers who are improving stoves. If you ,have $2,600—give or take a hundred or .so—you can have a stove which will cook your food in a jiffy. You can come home from work at 5 o'clock and have a full course dinner prepared and cooked by 5:45. How's that for keeping a growling husband happy? Another great inovention as far as I'm concerned are the new cooking tops which are solid china-like substances with no cracks and crevices to keep clean. Simply wipe as you would a counter top, and your cooking area is sparkling glean. These latter cooking tops, I think, require special cookware with very flat bottoms. ...but the whole survace becomes cooking area, not just four distinct burners such as we have today. Sounds simply- wonderful for . someone like me who hates , to" clean the stove. Of course, most of you have heard of the self-cleaning oven where you press a button and the heat becomes so intense in the oven that the spilled food is turned to grey ash in minutes. Most interesting to me was the information that these specially- equipped stoves are testing out well, and that they have a normal life-expectancy with few, problems. The future holds very little weekly cleaning for the housewife. I understand that homes of the future will have big, silent and invisible vacuum cleaners installed in them. By pressing a button on a computer, a housewife will be able to pull all the dust out of any or all rooms in ' the house—at a moment's notice, Think what a boon that would be when the neighbor's drop in unexpectedly. One thing disturbed me, wretch that I am. It is entirely possible that in the future, children will not go to school. They will be at home all day with mom my and daddy and they will do their school work by computer. 'think that's carrying electric living a step too far. .1 think such educational freedom should be available only in very special circumstances. There are too many rotten mothers around— like me—who enjoy having the kids in school for as much of the year as possible, BUYING? SELLING?

In 1973, new models will be impossible to start until the occupants are strapped in. In 1976, many new cars will be equipped with passive restraints, such as airbags, taking over the interior protection role from seat belts. "However, not everyone is going to buy a new car in 1976. Consequently, seat belt education will be needed for another 15 years or so until pre-1976 cars are no longer on the road," he added. Young children can influenee their parents to wear seat belts, according to the findings of an experimental program conducted by the Ontario Department of Transportation a ri'd Communications. Ed Brezina, head of the Department's safety research section, told 'a road safety workshop here today that last October, 5,400 children in grades two and three were exposed to a special two-hour program of seat belt education, "A few weeks later we found that the rate of seat belt use by parents of children exposed to the program increased two to three times. This demonstrates convincingly, I think, that drivers can be persuaded to buckle up by informed children." • The pilot program, conducted in 23 schools in North York and Scarborough, involved children in the use of film, play-acting, drawing, posters, crash simulations on the restraint benefits of belts, and individual practice in buckling and adjusting Mika Studio, 41 Dussek St., P. 0.

Of 633 parents observed, 280 had children who had received the education program. "Sixteen percent of these parents wore seat belts, compared with only seven percent of parents whose children had not been exposed to the seat belt program," Mr. Brezina explained. In Scarborough, the seat belt habits of 96 parents attending parent-teacher meetings were observed. "Twenty percent of parents whose children received seat belt education wore belts, compared with only seven percent of parents whose children were not exposed." Mr. Brezina commented that eventually all drivers will be provided with injury reduction systems of one kind or another and many will still require favourable acceptance by the driver, For example, the 1972 Corn course offered through correspondence A new correspondence course is now available for the agricultural industry of Ontario.
