Everybody should enjoy the arts Continued from page 5 reverse snobism in the arts that holds that the fewer people see and enjoy something, the better it must be. The thinking is that if too many people understand and enjoy it, it must be crassly commercial and low brow and therefore not be worth anything. It seems to me that what this country needs most is art and movies and television and music and theatre that reaches ordinary Canadians telling them something about their own country and the people who live here. We are a nation bombarded by imported popular culture to the point it’s a wonder if we don’t all speak southern accents. We need the arts to help us see and understand ourselves. In that way we’ve been fortunate here in Huron county for the last 15 years. The Blyth Festival has proven that you can say important things and still be popular. Plays like “Quiet in the Land’’ and “Fires in the Night” and “The School Show” and “The Mail Order Bride” tell us about what it’s like to live in this country and they still provide entertainment to ordinary people. And that includes pig farmers. Money announced for school projects Jack Riddell, MPP for Huron, has announced a total of $1,829,000 in funding assistance from the Ontario Ministry of Education for six capital projects in Huron and Perth counties. Joining with Perth MPP Hugh Edighoffer, Riddell said the Huron- Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board has received an allocation of $47,000 for roofing at Our Lady of Mt. Cafmel Elemen­ tary School in Dashwood. The Huron County Board of Education will receive a total of $1,782,000. Included in this amount are plans for additions to Grey Central and Holmesville Public Schools, a site purchase for the Wingham Public School, and heating and renovation projects for Central Huron Secon­ dary School in Clinton. On a province-wide basis, the Ontario government pays an aver­ age of 60 per cent of the approved cost of building a new school, 75 per cent of the approved cost of replacements and renovations, and 100 per cent of the cost of a child care centre. The provincial share of funding any individual school board re­ ceives for capital projects varies according to the number of pupils attending the board’s schools, and the size of the board’s relative wealth measured by its local tax base - in other words, its ability to raise taxes. This means that a board such as Huron County, with a smaller local tax base, may receive around 60 jjer cent of its funding from the government while a large board such as Metro Toronto, receives only around one per cent. Riddell expressed his pleasure with this year’s capital grants, saying, “I am sure the Huron Board will be pleased with this assistance to help them meet their budgetary commitments.” Blyth card winners announced Winners at the weekly Blyth euchre party at Memorial Hall April 30 were: high, Clara Rinn and Murray Scrimgeour; low, Margaret Nesbit and Alvin Procter; lone hands, June Jacklin and Walter Pepper. The special prize was won by Mel Jacklin. There were seven tables in play. Blyth people Continued from page 3 ciency of Norway’s train and bus systems. They make transferrals almost instant. He benefited from that. Steve enjoyed living in a country where the air is pure, because of more oxygen available and less carbon dioxide, and where cleanli­ ness has top priority. Pollution is at a minimum because of the people’s life style. Their taxes are three times as high as ours, but they do not seem to complain, because they benefit from an abundance of services in-this socialist country. On his departure from Norway, Steven Souch’s appraisal of its people had changed considerably. For the first few months their manner appeared cold and distant. After almost one year living and travelling in a large section of Norway, a succulent remark of his was, “To make a friend in Norway, you have made a friend for life”.
