Anti -drinking campaigns increase
EXETER - The Ontario Provincial Police are not
the only group this holiday season who are reminding
motorists not to drink and drive.
This weekend marked the beginning of the annual
Red Ribbon Campaign that
was kicked -off at Oscar's
Video in Exeter on Thursday.
People renting movies were
given a red ribbon and an in-
formation sheet asking people
to show their commitment to
the anti -drinking and driving
campaign.
Free ribbons are alarnbeing
handed out at the Emirs de-
tachment of the OPP during
the Christmas season.
The campaign is sponsored
in part by MADD - Mothers Against Drunk Drivers.
As well, last week marked the -beginning of the
RIDE program that will be in effect until January
1994. This year, motorist who are pulled over will
qualify for a 10 per cent discount at participating win-
ter resorts listed in the Winter Great Escapes Guide
which will also be given out.
The discount offer is the result
of a new partnership with the
Ontario MInistry of Culture,
Tourism and Recreation, Ontario
:Resorts and the OPP.
"This offer will stimulate tour-
ism throughout Ontario during
the winter months and encourage
safer travel for motorists on our
roads and highways," said Anne
Swarbrick, Ontario Minister of
Culture, Tourism and Recrea-
tion.
The RIDE program has been
in operation since 1987 and in
the past four years, the OPP have checked more than
1.2 minion cars during holiday campaigns.

A well prepared resume will help you
get the job you are looking for!
A resume detailing an applicant's work history and
education is extremely helpful to an employer who
is seeking a person for a specific job vacancy.
Your personal resume should accompany
your letter of application.
Here are some guidelines to follow in preparing your resumes:
U Make it clear, concise and easy to read - and no longer
than two pages
U The resume should be typed on 8 1/2" x 11" white paper
with enough white space to prevent a cluttered look
U Start with your name, address and phone number
LJ Next under a sub -heading "Work History" detail the
previous jobs you've held - in reverse date order
- that is, last job first.
U Use a separate paragraph for each position and
precede it with the dates you held that position.
U State the job title, a brief description of the
responsibilities - and the results you achieved.
U The next section of your resume should come under the
sub -heading of "Education". Start with the highest
degree obtained or grade completed, followed by the
name of the institution at which you studied. Follow
this with previous education attainments. At the end,
list any specific instructional courses you have
attended in conjunction with your work.
U Under the sub -heading "Affiliations", list memberships
and/or offices held in professional or industry
associations.
U ilnder the sub -heading "Personal Interests" list any
activities which you feel will be of interest to the
employer - such as volunteer work, etc.
Your letter of application and your resume will be the
factors that make the employer decide whether to short
list you for an Interview. 5o make It as Impressive
' rni you can - but Stick to the facts.
We can help you get an impressive and
professional -looking resume
