Natural Resourses Minister Alan Poper announced. The province's snow- mobile and cross-country ski trail clubs were recently notified by his ministry that the grants, offered since 1974, were now being discon- tinued "We believed the clubs were sufficiently established and that there was an exten- sive enough trail network for us to justifiably discontinue the program. But it is realiz- ed that some clubs did not have enough advance notice and some assistance will continue for one more year." Mr. Poper said. This will give all clubs enough lead time so that by next winter they will be able to handle their own fun - 1 NNTRi TO THE RATEPAYERS OF THE TOWNSHIP OF STEPHEN The Second Instalment of the 1981 Taxes of the Township of Stephen are due on or before the 30th day of November, 1981 After November 30th, interest will be charg- ed on outstanding taxes at the rate of 1 14 % per month.

In ancient days (we were told in school people con- jured up stories to reflect the origins of the things around them. These basic explanations grew with the telling and evolved into an oral and eventually written mythology. Infamous pantheons of gods. giants and even aspir- ing human heros became part of the people's lives and beliefs and eventually became part of their history. While parts of history became part of the mythology. the gods are often named as inspiration or in- stigation of various ancient world events.) Mythologies then, can be classed as explanations for something which is not un- derstood. Not surprisingly. gods reflected the culture - The Greek gods being refined and educated, Norse gods boozing and a' viking in Valhalla: and most other gods were part and parcel of the nature of a region. Jumping to the 18th cen- ing done by live steam; through several world wars there were more than two); the bomb and into the com- puter age. Along the way mythology took a terrible beating.

Along the way deeds of great heros became the ac- tivities of minor tribal leaders. and theories based on Darwin or Oparin's work would bring into question the very notion of the gods themselves. Fantasy lived on in children's games and pulp magazines. but nobody real- ly took it seriously. Fantasy became entertainment, something to spend an even- ing with and have a good laugh. On film. beautiful people danced the night away, and never woke with a hangover: ghouls stalked, comedians stumbled and the odd monster devoured Tokyo. In the late sixties, fantasy became politics - everybody could share the land high on drugs and life itself. A revolution began to fight the realities of the mainstream political scene and the Vietnam war. But reality came back with a vengeance. Old age crept up on the generation who didn't trust those over 30; the realities of increasing costs and taxes turned people around - a job hcc'amlifestyle.e a desireable The mind however (Thank God!) is not the least con- strained by the pocket book. Fantasy. the pure dreams of elsewhere, the riches and the adventure, is returning. We see this in movies, honks and magazines; the promotion of everyday items which will not only clean your floors but make your life happier too; and the now almost automatic shell -out for a weekly lottery ticket. Fantasy is the niche we hide in to escape the high mortgage rates, the con- stitution and spiralling infla- tion. The radio blares as we drive along. the TV stains our skins a permanent blue with its glare, and even at work. the shores of Tahiti are not far off... It's all a fantasy. Movie night should be horror night This Friday, November 13, the South Huron student's council will run a Horror Movie Night. "The Awakening" with Charlton Heston and the 1980 version of "Dracula", starring Lawrence Olivier will make up this spine -chilling double feature. The movies start at 8:00 and admission is $3.00. "The sound system is im- proved over last year", said council social convener, Joanne Malone. "You can get two movies for less than the price of one in the theatre."
