WALLY'S MARKET
I've just about made it.
If this column gets finished
and goes to press it will complete
a year of grinding one out every
week.
There were many times when I
• was sure I'd never make it this far,
and after one year on the job I
admit I've a lot more respect for
newspapering, and for column
writing in particular.
It's gratifying to know I have
some readers, and one of the
questions they most frequently
ask is, "How do you think up all
that stuff every week?"
Well, to tell the truth, I pray a
lot!
If by Monday noon I haven't
an idea in the world of what to
write about, I light up my little
pot of incense, and commence to
send up incantations for a 'good'
suggestion.
If, by Monday night, I haven't
received one, I change the
supplication to 'any old idea at
all.
Should Tuesday morning
break and find my mind still
• blank I really get down to
business and earnestly plead that
the roof will fall in, that I'll trip
and break all my typewriter
fingers, or fall into a deep coma
until the newspaper has been
printed and the crisis passed.
And if by Tuesday at 2:30
p.m. no miracle or catastrophe ▪ has occurred, I'm sitting at the
typewriter in a cold clammy
sweat and sick at my stomach.
Like right now.
So, why do I keep it up?
For fame? Well hardly. The
times I am recognized when I go
out is by people who poke each
other and whisper, "There's that
kook who writes for the paper."
To impress my family?
Hah! Nobody in my crew has
broken out in a rash yet over any
of my material.
Our littlest guy read one
column and snorted with disgust,
Plan corporate communion
A C W elect new slate
"You're a liar, Mom, and that's
the worst kind of mother to
have.."
My husbancl,also,pursued one
column quickly and asked, "Is
that what people are reading
these days? Why the heck isn't
there any food in the
refrigerator?"
Which leads me to the business
of working part time and trying
to keep the old home ship on even
keel all at once.
I've learned to rush home and
throw the potatoes in the pot
before my spouse hits the back
door. For regardless of what the
T.V. ads tell him, he still thinks
the smell of dinner cooking is far
more important than if my
deodorant keeps me fresh all day.
So, what is it that keeps me
sitting here, staring at a blank
piece of paper while the minutes
tick steadily past that cursed
deadline and the editor gives me
the beady eye everytime he goes
by my desk?
Money? How did you guess?
Perhaps, you too, have had
frustration of going through
motherhood without putting a
nickle by toward old age
(persuming you will reach old
age.)
And, what else can I do?
Nothing. Too stupid to run a
computer, no education to teach;
a rotten back which prevents
Eleven registered nurses'
assistants graduated from a
diploma course conducted at
South Huron Hospital, Friday
evening, in an impressive
ceremony at Exeter United
Church.
Dr. J.C. Goddard, M.D.
introduced the guest speaker,
Miss Doreen Baker, Reg. N. who
spoke briefly to the graduates
about the expectations, aims and
purposes of their role in society.
She continued with an
interesting talk on her
experiences in Malayia where she
worked for two years as part of
a medical team sent there by
CARE.
Miss Alice Claypole,
scrubbing or ditch digging (thank
heavens), and an inaptitude to
learn plumbing . . , I always try
to screw things together
backwards,
But while I admit the money is
great, the biggest thrill I get out of
writing is to have someone stop
me on the street and say, "I got a
real chuckle out of your column
this week."
That's heady praise and it lifts
me two feet off the ground.
As a long time advocate of
laughter, I'm of the viewpoint it is
one of the staples of life, and that
there is far too little of it in the
world.
We all tend to take ourselves
and our society much too
seriously and while the problems
each of us face are difficult and
sometimes even heartbreaking,
we can never better them by
preaching doom and gloom and
wearing thunder cloud faces. So,
if I can make some people smile
and forget their woes for just a
few brief munutes, then that's
one of the most rewarding
payments I can receive for filling
this corner each week,
Of course, like I said, the
money's nice, too.

Better never trouble Trouble
Until Trouble troubles you;
For you only make your trouble

Ontarians are the kind of people who wouldn't be
here if there was any place better. We are people
who came from a hundred lands and stayed to build.
People with backbone and brawn and a hunger to
succeed. Men and women who've created a stan-
dard of living in decades that other lands worked
centuries to build. If we have a flaw it's our chronic
modesty. Ontarians may be proud to be Ontarians
and Canadians . . . they just seldom tell anyone.
From an economic point of view that's wrong. The
more people we have boosting Ontario and
Canada the better it is. And we've got a lot to
boost with. At a time when the dollar is having
many demands made on it, Ontarians can note that
provincial takes have held the line in 1970. And

Impressive ceremony for
South Huron Hospital grads
we had a surplus to boot. Yet, needed programs
have not been neglected. The Ontario Housing
Corporation for example, has housed 120,000
people to date and currently has almost a billion
dollars worth of programs active in nearly 200
Ontario Communities. We need a vigorous
economy of course, to support these important
programs. And, that's where you come in. Though
our productivity has doubled in ten years and our
incomes in twelve, Ontarians don't sit on their
successes. There's a demanding decade ahead full
of challenges and opportunities to make the quality
of our lives better yet. To meet these challenges
we've got to believe in ourselves._ Which, when
you think about it, isn't such a bad idea.
