The first Weapon is proper clothing to avoid bites. The second weapon is insect repellant. Keep a fresh container handy. The older it is, the less effective it, will be. The repellent that's been sitting in the garage fora couple of sum- mers isn't likely to deter blackflies, mosquitoes and other airborne at- tackers as effectively as a newly prepared batch. When these insects do get past .your guard, calamine lotion is the. best thing for relieving the irritation caused by their bites. 0, When it comes to dealing with wasps, bees and hornets, the best approach is one of live and let live. Never slap a bee or wasp. Brush them off or blow them away quick- ly. Stay away from. their nests espeCially children. Try not to ag- gravate these creatures — or to encourage, them by leaving food, particularly sweet food, uncovered outdoors: While wasps can sting several -times, the bee can only do so once (a fact which may be of little con- solation to .the victim), because it leaves its sting embedded in the person's skin. The only true pre- FROM WITHIN ' Be honest -- true reflections come from one's thinking, not looking into, mirrors. caution is to keep the skin covered. Multiple stings can produce a dan- gerous toxic reaction because of the amount of venom injected into the syitem, and, people whO suffer mul- tiple stings as well as those who know they are allergic to bee venom should seek medical help when they're stung. In fact, a sizeable segment of the population is allergic to stings. To such people; stings could be fatal if unattended by a medical profes- sional. • A less commonly known type of insect attack in summertime comes from the fleas that may reside on your cat or dog. Dr. Harding LeRiche 'of the University of Toronto's School of Hygiene urges vigilance about fleas: As he puts it: "When the domestic pet goes to the cottage, the fleas may decide to stay home' and bite father." Predictably, the solution here is better hygiene. Dr. LeRiche points out that at least one summer insect, the horse- fly, is fast disappearing. But the rest, of them aren't likely to go away in a hurry, and' the best thing you can do about these unwelcome guests is ` to discourage'them. Steer cleat of insects whenever possible. Proper clothing helps; and the use of insect repellent, too. And, if, this doesn't do the trick; keep calamine lotion handy. And seek medical help if you have,an allergy problem. This. way, you should be able to ,ward off most insects or bugs that come your wa), — and have' a 'happy summer. BAR NONE The two salient attributes pos- sessed by all great men are courage and sincerity. 11 •6 41 • ' • nu 2 SHOWINGS t W s, N n G u S . O i Ai L A T . 1 7. 0 S o U w M i 0 1 : 11, S M P O .

I was reminded of those days when I was reading a fairly new book - Early Ontario Gravestones by Carole Hanks. There was actually not much to • read, but it was full of photographs of early gravestones and had good information about what. Miss Hanks calls "funnerary' art". I shall take a closer look at the carving and ornamentation on old gravestones after this. MoSt of the pictures , are from cemeteries along the southern fringe of Ontario, although there are a few in Bruce Peninsula. It is just another thing to look at on the rare occasions when we find some *time to 'stand and stare'. Did you ever find yourself a very small minority in a group of people of a different colour, language .or fashion? . Several years ago, I got an idea of what it must feel like when Ernie and I attended a meeting of the West Indian Club at Toronto University. There were three white people' there. It gave us a peculiar sensation. .I have just finished a book about a small group of 'different' people in Ontario. The book is "A String of Amber" by Blodwen. Davies, and the people are the Mennonites, Dunkers and Amish. Miss Davies calls these people The Defenceless Christians because they would not fight to defend their rights, and because they were different, they were harrassed and persecuted and, pushed around from one hiding place to another, not just for a few generations but for centuries. Their story certainly goes back to the beginning of the Christian Era and there are legends that peace- loving people were living in small groups, probably in Asia even before the time of Christ. • Sometime in the 1700's groups of the ‘iso-called Pennsylvania Dutch tame to North. America and found peace and security under the rule of Britain in the American Colon- ies. After the American Revolu- tion, many came to Canada and there were settlements in Welland County (some of my own ancestors Readers Write . . 2428-54 Ave. S.W., Calgary, Alberta, March 25, 1975. Lucknow Sentinel, Lucknow, Ontario. Dear Mr. Thompson, Enclosed please find cheque for 1 more year of your. Sentinel for Mother's reading. Although she just celebrated her 93rd birthday in January, she's still very interested in any news of her home town. My cousin Angus MacPhee and myself are still trying to find any clues as to our Grandfather, the late Peter MacPhee and husband of Sarah McDonald . MacPhee, who was drowned I believe in the Great Lake in 1882, But we can't find, out the name of the ship he was aboard. It seems Canada has no trace of his death so we are wondering now if he became an American citizen and would be a record in Wisconsin or Michigan somewhere. Through your paper and a Mr. R. -Proule of Toronto, we have been given Murray Murdoch's address and I will, be writing him. His folks were very good friends of mine and we lost track of where he went to live. Also, I have now several relations to correspond with, thanks to the Sentinel. Sincerely, Elaine Beaton, (daughter of• Mary Ann (McPhee) Beaton. TODAY'S HEALTH SUrnmeeS. almost here - so et oattheinsect repellent by David Woeds • • • • • • o • "WEIR ON : • Tit ORIENT.

Their communit- ies were closely, knit with their own customs,' beliefs, dress, and lang- uage. The Dutch in the name was most likely and English language corruption of the German Deutsch, which these people were as most of them had come from Germany to North America. As we can see when driving through a Mennonite community, the farms look thrifty and prosperous., Miss Davies quotes one writer as saying, "The Pennsylvania Dutch are of the earth, earthy, and of heaven, heavenly. They are perhaps the most unique combination of the practical and the spiritual in 'all America". The title "A String of Amber" is, used . because every family had a string of amber beads, not for ornament, but for curative qualities for throat admehis. The' third book I nibbled at, I really nibbled. It made me so mad that I couldn't take it. in gulps. It is "Hard to Swallow" by Walter Stewart. You may have read some of his articles, in MacLeins. It was not Mr. Stewart I was mad at but the thin& that go on in The Marketplace that he was exposing. We consumers howl about the prices we have to pay for food, and complain about' the higher prices that the farmers are getting, quite forgetting that any increases the farmers have been given, they more than deserve, and also that farmers are consumers too and are paying many of the inflated prices that we are. There is no doubt that the farmers are handling a lot more money than they were a generation ago, but that does not necessarily ' mean that they have any more profit at the end of the year. And certainly the farmers are working hours that any other person in the whole of the country would never considet. It is hard to believe the trickery, hanky-panky, double-dealing, manipulation and almost legalized dishonesty, ,that goes on in the food chain from producer to consumer, but Mr. Stewart had his statements well documented and I for one believe what he says.
