Since their parents were brothers and sisters In Holland, Tony and Peter have had very similar upbringings. Yet there is one major difference between the two 24 years olds. While Tony grew up on an onion and potato farm lust outside of Grand Bend, Peter was raised on a dairy farm in New Zealand. When the economic situation was bleak in Holland after the second world war, many Dutch people came to Canada to start new lives. Tony's late father and his mother were among them. Peter's father, however, decided that the cold weather of Canada did not appeal to him, and for health reasons chose the warmer New Zealand. Peter says that it never snows in the northern island of New Zealand where their home is, and the climate is usually pleasant. Even the heat of summer is more tolerable than it is here, because there is less humidity in the air. Peter and his wife Carol have been travelling for the past two years--driving throughout Britain and Europe. After touring some of Canada and the United States, they plan to return home, and Peter will again work on the dairy farm. The Loomans are enjoying their visit in Southwestern Ontario and have spent the summer with Tony and his wife June. They have been waiting for the birth of Tony and June's baby before continuing on their round- the-world trip. A daughter, Crystal, was born last week, so now Carol says they can head home armed with photographs to show the New Zealand cousins. The Loomans come from Morrinsville which is near the city of Hamilton in New Zealand. Dairy farming is different in New Zealand because they don't have the expense of building big barns. The climate allows the cows to stay out all year, and electric fences keep them in the correct pastures, Tony, who visited his cousins in the other half of the world three years ago says that the pace in New Zealand is much more easy going. The Lonrnans agree, saying "Our country's not into progress," Carol says that there's only one night club in Hamilton, which is the nearest city, She com- pares Hamilton to London. Their social life consists mainly of going to the beach. Rugby, field hockey, cricket and tennis are the main sports. Television watching is limited to two channels, and most of the shows are American just as they are here. They do get some English and Australian programs. Carol describes New Zealand is a country of a lot of different nationalities. The Maoris, or natives are integrated with other nationalities, not kept on reservations the way Canadian natives are, she has noticed. New Zealand has already let several loads of boat people into the already racially mixed country, she adds. "And on the whole, nobody worries about it," Carol says. Carol and Peter say that the educational system seems to be different in New Zealand. From ages five to 10 they attended primary school. After that there is two years at intermediate school and then four or five years of college depending on whether or not you want to go on to University. The fifth year of college com- pares with our grade 13, Carol says. However, very few people do go on to university. Peter and Carol agree that most people go into an ap- prenticeship after the fourth year of college. Many go into trades to become plumbers, brick layers or electricians, they added. Most of New Zealand is Americanized with big supermarkets and depart- ment stores such as Woolworths and Mackenzies. Their stores are bigger and more modern than those in Holland and the rest of Europe, the Loomans say. Carol says she has enjoyed travelling with her husband to visit his relatives in Holland and his Dutch Canadian cousins. But is her background Dutch? "Oh no, I'm true Kiwi," she replies. Her T-shirt with a picture of a Kiwi on it confirms the answer. The New Zealanders call themselves Kiwis after the strange birds that are native only to their country. These peculiar birds have no wings or tails and could once be seen strolling around the Cleaning the lenses of your safety glasses before you put them on could prevent an accident, says the Industrial Accident Prevention Association. So check on some of the little things I you do on and off the job, such as keeping your glasses clean. Spotting hazards) like that could prevent an accident.
