Honourable John White, Pro- vincial Treasurer announced this week that the province is going to introduce a bill to establish the Ontario Land Corporation. The Ontario Land Corporation will have three principal func- tions. It will finance the assembly of land for new towns and industrial parks. It will finance certain forms of government accommodation involving lease- backs. The O.L.C. will not develop or hold in perpetuity the land it assembles. Instead, it will turn the assembled land over to a special project corporation which in each .case will report to the appropriate Ministry. Each project corporation will be set up to manage the develop- ment of a specific project and the private. sector will participate fully in every phase including the planning, development, and con- struction as well as in the ownership rental and leasing of the developed properties. The O.L.C. will initiate new towns and industrial parks in parts of the province where the private sector is unlikely to venture on its own. Further O.L.C. will lend money to municipalities or their agencies to jointly develop provincial- municipal industrial parks to help attract industry in parts of Ontario where additional economic growth is desired. At the same time the Govern- ment is going to ensure that the Corporation takes special measures to keep all useable farmland, which it holds, is kept in continuous food production as Pro-life group An executive meeting of The Voice of the Unborn, was held on Wednesday of last week when events since the last meeting were reviewed. These included: the Pro Life Booth at Teeswater Fair sponsored by the Wingham, Goderich and Walkerton Pro-Life Groups; Purple Grove Women's Institute Presentation. Mrs. Sally Campeau, Doctor Clark, Father Nolan and Barbara Murray made up the group who went to Purple Grove; Rev. Carson, Chairman of Education Committee, pre- sentations to Young Peoples Groups in Blyth and Brussells. Application has been made for a charter for the Wingham Pro-Life Organization. When obtained official receipts for Income Tax purposes can be given for donations. The first anniversary of the organization is January 28, 1975, and an annual meeting will be held near that time. The Nominating Committee will seek long as possible,. Directors for the corporation will be drawn from the private sector as will the management and staff. Cooking Elective One day, sitting in my desk, I smelled something just mouth- watering, so I followed my nose and ended up in the staff room. There I saw the cooking elective. There are eight boys and seven girls in this group. Every day six, from 10:35 a.m. to 11:50 a.m. this elective heads clown to the staff room and makes something. So far they have made pancakes, macaroni and Cheese, cheese dogs which are. really only hot dogs with cheese, sloppy joes, milk shakes, and candy apples. Doestit .that sound good? Mary Lou Clarke Candle Making in Room 15 Rcently, Miss Amos' grade 7 and 8 class, supervised by Mr. Fisher, made candles. The purpose was to raise money for our upcoming trip to Ottawa. Many shapes and sizes of bottles were brought in for forms. Everyone put a good effort forward in making them, so that they could be sold. I think everyone really enjoyed making them. Another possible method of making money in our class room is to sell tickets for a lottery. This idea struck Mr.Fisher over the weekend. Mr. Fisher is not sure about it yet but we hope to find out the definite decision -soon. Barbara Kaufman Editor Something New In Mrs. Kirkby's Room 14, the class has started a debating t eam to present issues to the class. It will teach the students to respect the opinion of others and also let them have a change of lesson with a lot of participation of the class. On Tuesday, they debated on "who won the War of 1812". It was fairly well presented, considering it was the first time for most of them. Only those who are willing to get up and have their say are picked by the meets officers previous to the meeting. Rev. Carson is drafting a letter to go to community organizations to inform them of the willingness of the Wingham Pro-Life Group to speak to community organiza- tions. Such a presentation includes: "Abortion - How it is", a slide and tape talk by Dr. & Mrs. J.C. Wilke. Ideas for increasing member- ship included having a "Membership Sunday" at the area churches and challenging each present member to bring, a new member. A letter from the Hamilton Right-to-Life Organization dis- cussed the possibility of directing in union, activities toward the provincial government.

Ann Gibson The Vincent's Presentation Mr.Vincent came to our school to give a presentation onSouth America in the auditorium. The presenation lasted for forty-five minutes and was followed by ten minute question period. The slides which he brought were very enjoyable and interesting for all who were present.The pictures had been taken by him or his wife on their travels. Mr.Vincent told the school that he had driven in buses without brakes and flown in World War II planes to get across the continent. The people on the bus would ask if they could see the wonderful things which the Vincent's children had and it would just be a diaper or something very common to us in North America. When he left the school he told Mr. Robertson that.this school had been one of the best behaved schools he had visited. Lars Rasmussen Howick Central School, R.R.#l, Gorris, Ont.
