Ontario beekeepers vote TORONTO - Ontario beekeeprs will be asked to vote between May 18 and May 29, 1992, on a fee sys- tem proposed by their association, Minister of Agnculture and Food Eimer Buchanan announced recent- ly. The vote will be conducted by the Farm Products Marketing Com- mission by mail -in ballot. The On- tario Beekeepers' Association has asked to be designated as the repre- sentative association for beekeepers under section 13 of the Farm Prod- ucts Marketing Act. The associa- tion also wants the authority to col- lect fees from producers with 50 or more hives. Under the proposal, Ontario bee- keepers would pay a mandatory, non-refundable fee of 51.5() per hive. The fees would be used to in- crease and improve the marketing, research and educational initiatives for Ontario honey, honey -related products, pollination services, queens, nucs, and package bees. The Commission will mail bal- lots the week of May 11 to all known beekeepers with 50 or more hives. Eligible beekeepers can also obtain a ballot by calling the Com- mission at 416-861-2967.

She's quoted in an ar- ticle, in Mat month's OQ magazine, on steroid use among teenagers (juicing in the current slang). It's hardly news teenagers care about who they look at and ht>w they look. It's no surprise, even to someone who hasn't been a teenag- er for 15 years, to hear young adults go to some length so get tilte "look". The look was, in my time, a result of your hairstyle and your wardrobe selection. My observation was this is still the most com- mon method. Now we are being told a number of young females are starving themselves to a vogue -like appearance or, in the case of males, "juic- ing" themselves to muscle -mania proportions. The GQ anicle's author, Paul Solotaroff, cited studies in The Jour - hal of the American Medical Association, and reports by the U.S. De- partment of Health. These studies gave his article the appearance of scientific validity. However, Solotaroff undoes this balance by quot- ing kids who said, "Their schools were swimming in juice and that something like auarter of the boys were doing `raids now." My �ob- jection to the "GOP -type" of article is the impression it leaves. What might be a relatively small and particular problem is, according to the experts, quite common and widespread. Two years ago a report was published by the Canadian Youth Foundation titled Canada's Youth - "Reacty for Today". 1t was a comprehensive survey of young people. More than 2,100 interviews were conducted across Canada by the Gallup Organization and the report -presented some of the highlights of the data secured in those interviews. When Canadian youth were asked what was imponant to them - fnendship ranked at the top. Freedom was highly valued by three in four young people. A rewarding career, a comfortable life, and a good education were viewed as very important by 65 percent. Rela- tionships in the family and concern for others were also seen as sig- nificant by the same number of this country's youth. Far down the list, valued by less than 1/3 of the young adults, was looks. If anecdotal evidence is allowed in a discussion about today's youth then allow me to give my own impressions. Last month, the two churches I minister with, gave me the opportunity to be the theme speaker at a Young Peoples' rally in Embro. For three days I was in the company of 100 teenagers and I enjoyed the experience. During the question and answer periods and the small group discussions I lis- tened to them express their thoughts and opinions on a variety of sub- jects. 1 heard the youth say friends and friendship are highly valued. Edu- cation and future careers are also important. The concern with looks was not of paramount importance. I am not suggesting this group was a representative sample of today's teenagers, they were not. But, they did give me a glimpse, however briefly, into their world. Their values appear to correspond to the polling data 1 mentioned earlier. I am not disagreeing with the parents of teenagers who, when look- ing for their children, claim the first place they check is in front of the bathroom mirror. Yes, teenagers care about how they look - but they have other values and concerns which they say are more impor- tant. Values and concerns we all share, especially the desire to have fnends. Jesus Christ recognized this basic human desire when during his earthly ministry he told the disciples their master/servant relationship had evolved into a friendship. I know I don't offer adequate thanks for the friends I have. 1 very seldom tell my friends how important they are to me. I am grateful some younger people have reminded me of the importance and value of friends. Playhouse actors need a place to call home GRAND BEND - It's that time of .
