seems to do the trick.
That worked pretty well when the old girl
had twenty-odd students, And was churn-
ing out prize-winners by the dozen at every
festival. She'd be satisified that I was
listening and would go right ahead and
have the kid play the piece the way she
knew it should be played.
But this time around, she doesn't have
the same old confidence, because she's
been away from it so long. She makes me
actually listen, instead of just appearing to.
When 1 question the speed of a piece, she
plays it at four different speeds, and forces
me to make a judgment. They all sound the
same to me.
Should I suggest that the minuet seems a
trifle fast, she makes me get up in the
living-room, pretend I am a bewigged,
bepowdered French gallant in tight pants
in the court of Louis Fourteenth, and dance
a minuet. It's hard to get into the mood
when I'm in my bedroom slippers, painting
pants and old sport shirt.
Have you ever tried prancing around on
the strains of a gavotte, or a Saturday
morning, when you know your neighbours
can see in the windows and are wondering
what on earth Smiley got into at this hour
of the day?

MVCA starts
planning for
Wawanosh
A committee has been
struck to act as a steering
group for the planning of the
newly acquired Wawanosh
Lake area near St. Helens.
The 200 acre property has
potential for fishery, wildlife,
forestry, recreation, edu-
cational and water manage-
ment development. Follow-
ing a thorough site inspec-
tion of the property, the
committee will begin setting
long term goals and object-
ives and will review inform-
ation that will help to deter-
mine the best use of the area.
The committee consists of
all the Advisory Board vice--
chairmen, Foundation Chair-
man, the member from West
Wawanosh Township, and a
representative of the Wing-
ham District, Ministry of
Natural Resources.
The Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority has
been awarded a Junior
Conservationalist Award
Program group for the sum-
mer of 1979. The group will
consist of 7 secondary school
students and a post-second-
ary supervisor who will con-
duct research and inventory
work in the Pine River area.
Each year the Conser-
vation Authorities Branch
sponsors 5 J.C. groups to
work in different Authorities
throughout the Province of
Ontario. Maitland Valley has
hosted other projects done on
the Lakelet Lake area,
Lorne Murray of Moore-
field was recently elected as
chairman of the Ontario
Conservation Authorities'
Chairmen's Committee.
After winning the South-
western Ontario represent-
atives election, Mr. Murray
went on to be chosen as the
senior executive member of
the group that represents
Ontario's 38 Conservation
Authorities.
Mr. Murray has been the
Maryborough Township
representative to the Mait-
land Valley and Grand River
Conservation Authorities for
several years, and is current-
ly serving his fourth term as
chairman of M.V.C.A. He is
the past reeve of Mary-
borough, and a past warden
of Wellington County,
The Township of Howick
recently requested that the
Maitland Valley Conser-
vation Authority investigate
the cost of preparing 1 in 100
year flood plain mapping for
the villages of Gorrie, Ford-
wick and Wroxeter. This
mapping would indicate
where flooding hazards exist
in the villages, and where
development could be
dangerous.
M.M. Dillon Ltd. has
submitted a cost estimate of
$8,000. to complete the pro-
ject that would give the
Township and the Authority
a basis for establishing
special policy areas. Follow-
ing a meeting of represent-
atives from the council,
M.V.C.A., and the Wroxeter
Floodplain Committee, the
proposal was sent to the
Ministry of Natural
Resources Regional Office
for final approval.
The Ontario Youth Secre-
tariat will provide funds
again this year to employ
secondary and post second-
ary students for the summer
months. The Maitland
Authority has submitted a
preliminary budget that will
provide jobs for 22 local
students for periods of 8 to 15
weeks.
A supervisor and 5 tech-
nical staff will be hired in
early May, while 3 foremen
and 13 labourers will begin
work in June. These students
will be working along with
the Authority's regular staff
on environmental manage-
ment programs.
stock will be used to begin
the wildlife management
plantings at the Wawanosh
Valley Conservation. Area.
New signs have been
designed, to identify proper-
ties where the Authority
works in co-operation with
the landowner. These metal
Conservation Services
markers will be used on
reforested lands and on sites
where erosion control work
has been done.
Local fishermen will be
pleased to note that the
Ministry of Natural Re-
sources is stocking ponds on
some of the Authority's
properties again this year.
Rainbow trout will be put
into the large pond at the
Falls Reserve Conservation
Area near Benmiller, and
Brook Trout will be put in at
the. Wawanosh Valley and

your way through a sonatina, at the same
time trying to clap your hands to establish
the time and to read the headlines about
the coming election. It's nerve-wracking.
Our social life has deteriorated, too, as it
always has at festival time. Instead of
going to sparkling parties where all the
guests are full of repartee, among other
things, we sit in the Living-room with her
pounding the piano, and me waving my
foot. It's not enough to keep the mind
alive.
Oh, we do take a sashay into high life
occasionally. On Easter weekend, we really
lived it up. We went to see Great-Grandad,
who is recovering from an operation, and
came home the next day to help Kim, who
arrived with Batman and Robin, as they
call themselves, figure out her income tax.
Naturally, she didn't have half the inform-
ation. And Balind, three, asserted that he
was no longer Robin, but the Incredible
Hulk, whatever that is.
But The Festival is right up there like a
bill board, with all its infighting, anxiety,
lousy adjudicator (if you lose), teachers
teetering on the verge of a coronary, and
mothers tearing their hair out in clumps.
Next year, I hope the old lady takes up
karate or skydiving, or something sane and
sensible and safe. Music festivals are
murder.

Although all of these

live over the winter and serve
as a fine catch on the
season's opening day.
Several new members
