Visions of numerous creepy crawly things, scorched noses, outhouses and sleepless nights promptly popped to mind. However if the family was to have a vacation it seemed camping was the only avenue of escape. Besides the four remaining family members were more than eager to try such a venture and heavily outvoted me. With only one week allowed for our adventure it seemed wise to try our wings fairly close to home. After much consultation the Pinery Provincial Park seemed the most logical location, It was noted that the park grows a healthy crop of poison ivy and yours truly was one of the By MRS. J. TEMPLEMAN Laurie Milne of Bornholm was a weekend guest of Nancy Templeman. Christine Scherbarth of Bor- nholm was a weekend guest of Jane Ross. The Staffa Juniors have won their last two games. They won over Fullarton 5 to 1. Ken Harris was the winning pitcher with Roger Reed and Rob Heckman sharing the loss.

Now ,armed with knowledge of the deadly plant, precaution was taken. Early Monday morning with tent trailer stuffed and canoe balanced on top of the car we set out, As we entered the gates of the park the natural beauty within began to soothe imy dark doubts. On the other hand Husband suddenly seemed to be suffering some anxiety, Amidst the flurry of preparations the obvious had been overlooked. It was noted the gas gauge was registering an ominous "empty". Driving through the entire 6,000 acres trying to locate our campsite the vastness of the park was pain- fully apparent! Our campsite turned out to be perfect for the family. The Ausable River flowed within a stone's throw. Silver birches and pines along with mighty oaks provided shade as well as resting places for countless chipmunks, bluejays and redwing blackbirds who visited us continuously. One of the many activities provided by the park is a children's nature-recreational program. The children were completely captured by its events. Birds were fashioned from pine cones, rabbits from paper cups and countless other creatures created. They also were taught to recognize the various types of poison ivy along with several wild flowers. Trees were identified. Our grade one daughter carefully instructed her parents in the differences between the white `and red pine following a session.— The river, itself, proved the most fascinating for the family, For two little boys ages 9 and 5, it couldn't have been more cap- tivating, Fishing rods were flung in during every possible free moment, Small bass were hooked and returned to their homes time and time again, but did much to fortify a little guy's fishing ego. Canoeing proved an excellent relaxation. Vegetation, turtles sunning themselves on lily pads, fish and frogs were observed from the comfort of the canoe. Water lilies were picked fresh to adorn the dinner table. Afternoon dips and early evening swims were enjoyed in Lake Huron along the endless sandy beaches within the park. Often after sunset the family would take in the late movie under the stars with hundreds of other camping families as part of the recreational program provided, Here the children discovered Charlie Chaplin. A family of hiking enthusiasts, the nature walks along the trails were time well spent. Several of these were conducted walks with interpretive park staff member, Casey, who passed on an even greater appreciation of the park itself. Very informally he ex- plained the natural environment .of the area and its many sub- tleties along with its natural and man history. He pointed out a beaver lodge which otherwise would have escaped our notice, it was so well disguised by its . builders. Sand dunes are a prominent feature of the park and some date back 6,000 years. Others are as young as 200. The forest contains many varieties of trees, Several of the plants, such as the poison ivy and New Jersy Tea are the result of fires in the park over the years, The , seeds from these plants can only germinate if they are exposed to intense heat such as fire. Grape vines could be seen choking huge oak trees, but the thrust of the Pinery is to maintain the natural environment, , enabling campers to appreciate nature as it is designed, Biking hikes and canoe hikes are also conducted by the park's interpretive staff for anyone interested. Back in Ailsa Craig, we have happy memories of evening campfires, the moon rising over the water and the sound of the . whippoorwill sounding its good night song, Also we have the pleasant reassurance that one of the finest provincial parks is located within twenty miles of us.

Two years later I got married and moved to Grand Bend. After about 3 years I went back north for a holiday and while I was there, I went to the bank to close my account. A teller told me that since it had been quite some time since I'd done business there, she would have to look up my account which would take time, She suggested that I leave my pass-book and address and • they would mail it to me, so after waiting a few weeks 1 wrote them, but since I'd mislaid my account number they replied that they couldn't trace my passbook or ac- count. It was just a small amount of money, and it isn't real- ly because of the money, but I'm curious to know what would become of my account, and if there is any way I could get it back?. The bank that you mention in New Liskeard is unable to find any trace of your account. This is most unusual, to say the least, because normally you should have received a sttstement from them at regular intervals showing your current balance. There is no way now that you can get this money, because after a nine year period all unclaimed funds become the property of the Government in Ottawa.

I've applied for several jobs in stores and restaurants. Whenever I fill in on the applica- tion that I'm an American it seems to ruin my chances. The manager or the personnel department says that they give preference to Canadian applicants. I'm getting a little desperate and I think I might have to lie about my nationality the ' next time I apply somewhere. Is this illegal? You don't have to lie. Under the Ontario Human Rights Code it is illegal to discriminate in employment on the grounds of "....nationality, ancestry, or place of origin...". Furthermore, employers cannot even use applications or in- terview forms that either directly or indirectly indicate preferences in these areas. Nor can the employer use applications or interviews which require a job applicant to furnish such information. The only exceptions are domestic service jobs, Federal Government jobs within Ontario, and jobs where national origin is a "bona fide occupational qualification and re- quirement."

He has suggested that I write to you, so here goes! We were planning on hiring someone to help with the housework and I thought it would be advantageous if we chose a French speaking woman, because it would help our children to learn the French language, but my husband says he thinks it's against the law now to advertise a job by sex and language. Can you tell me please if he's right or wrong before i start advertising, — Thank you. Ontario's Human Rights Code does indeed make it illegal to advertise a job where the advertisement indicates that sex, national ancestry, or place of origin would be a "limitation, specification, or preference" in considering applicants. However, these provisions do net apply where such ' limitations are a "boncpfide" occupational qualification and requirement, Nor do they apply where the job is for a domestic servant employed in a single family residence, Therefore you are allowed to specify both sex and language in advertising for the job.
