Its at,- pearanee marks the end of the "semi-cling" and the beginning of the "freestone" peach crop, These freestone varieties are the ones whose flesh "comes away" from the stone so easily. They are ; excellent eating peaches and are well suited to canning and freezing. Generally the crop of peaches should be plentiful and of good quality this year; the lack of moisture during the first two weeks of July has not had a significant effect on the peach size. The warm, dry -Ontario weather during June and July has resulted in the first varieties of peaches appearing on. Our markets approximately one week earlier than expected, say food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Normally, semi-clingstone varieties of peaches such as Earllred and Sunhaven appear around August 1. This year, they should be available starting July 23 in most Ontario areas. These varieties "semi-cling” to the stone. They are an excellent eating peach but not particularly suited to canning or freezing, Motherhood is fulltime em- ployment. Feminists quickly point out that the woman who works outside the home provides the same benefits for her family as the woman who stays at home. While she's away, though, a substitute mother or a day-care centre looks after her children. The woman who stays at home tends her children twenty-four hours a day. Contrary to popular belief, she isn't taking the easy way out. Since when did raising children and running a house become simple? Some women sacrifice their careers to raise their families; other suppress their motherly instincts for the sake of their jobs. Some women successfully mix a career with motherhood; others find complete fulfillment in being a wife and a mother. Society pressures all women to fulfill themselves outside the home, even though it may go against their natural instincts. As a result, the women who wish to stay at home are sometimes made to feel inferior. They are fulfilling their lives and contributing to society, though, in the way that is right for them. They are also" fur- thering the rights of women, because they make their own decisions. The pressure applied by today's society makes their choices difficult ones, But, like the female MPs, doctors, police and executives, these women are doing their own thing. Why not? consider women to be "persons", Nellie McClung, one of Canada's pioneer suffragettes, appealed to the Privy Council in London, which overruled the Supreme Court. In 1929, women were recognized as "persons", This recognition existed in theory if not in practice. Women had to pry open the political, educational, industrial and professional dears. They worked hard; they demonstrated their competence, and they proved they weren't second-class citizens, They wanted equal opportunity with their male counterparts; they also wanted equal pay for equal work, and they still do. The number of women in the upper echelon of the work force continues to he small, and the liberationists maintain that much remains to be accomplished. The feminists strive for equality, freedom and respect for their peers, They challenge all women to seek fulfillment; they encourage them to do their own thing. They want to end the discrimination against women. Perhaps, without realizing it, the feminists and our society discriminate against a segment of women those who find fulfillment in the traditional role of a wife and a mother. A phrase often heard today, "working mother," puzzles me. It refers to a mother, who is employed outside the home. In my observations all mothers work whether they toil in a factory, office, school or at home. By ELAINE TQWNSHENP International women's year is more than half over. The government has spent million$ of dollars publicizing the point "Why not?" Why shouldn't women en- courage their young daughters to porsue any career that interests them? Why shouldn't politics, law, medicine, psychology, journalism, business, industry and all fields of endeavour be open to women who demonstrate an ability for the job? Why not? Women answered that question long ago, and now they're poving their capabilities, Female police, truck and taxi drivers, medical doctors, veterinarians, lawyers, professors, members of parliament and executives are invading the so-called man's world, Women have come a long way from the early 1900's, when girls worked for meagre wages in foul cellars that had no ventilation and no heat. By the 1920's, Canadian women could vote and hold public office in every province except Quebec, but they couldn't sit in the Senate. The British North American Act stated that only "qualified persons" could be summoned to the Senate.
