IN MEMORIAM —
CORNISH – In loving memory of
a dear father, grandfather and
great grandfather, Fred Cornish,
who passed away twelve years
ago, October 13, 1971.
God made a father so loving and
kind,
We had the honour of calling him,
"mine."
Till God reached out and took
Dad's hand,
And led him to the Promised
Land.
It's lonely here, without you Dad,
And it's hard for us to see.
What he suffered, he told but few,
Tired and weary, he made no
fuss,
He tried so hard to stay with us.
You are where we cannot see you
Dad
Your voice we cannot hear,
Yet beyond our smiles there lies
a tear,
For a Special Dad we lost and
loved so dear.
Our hearts still ache as we
whisper low,
"God Bless you, Dad. we miss you
so."
Always loved and dearly
remembered by your family.41*
MUNN -- In loving memory of a
dear mother and grandmother,
Mabel A. Munn who passed away
two years ago October 14, 1981.
Time goes on with many changes,
Joys and sorrows, smiles and
tears,
But her memory will never leave
us,
With the passing of the years.
Lovingly remembered and sad-
ly misse-1 by Aileen and Don and
grh.idchildren. 41c
PARSONS — in loving memory of
a dear son and brother Jeffrey
Leslie who left us suddenly, one
year ago October 10, 1982.

Treasured forever in our

Introduce
Katimavik
The 12 members of the
Katimavik group who will be
living at 313 Carling for the
next three months want to get
to know the people in this
community, and in exchange
let the community know more
about them. To accomplish
the latter half of this objec-
tive, personal profiles written
by some of the Katimavikers
will be appearing in this
paper, beginning with this
issue.
"Hi. My narra is Scott
Paulley. I'm from Sarnia.
Unlike some of the people in
this group, I can go home for
the weekend and see my
family.
"I had a very hard decision
to make before joining
Katimavik. Before I left on
September 14 i had three job
opportunities and had to
decide whether to see Canada
right now or get a job and see
Canada later. I came to
Katimavik and I feel I made
the right decision. (It is
cheaper to let the government
pay my way.) •
"When I got notice that I
was accepted, and where I
was going, i said 'Great.
When I am in Exeter I won't
miss any hockey, that's for
sure.'
"Since i am partly in
charge of billeting I would
like to tell you we are looking
for people to billet each of us
for a two-week period later
on.
"We invite you to our open
house at 313 Carling Street on
October 12 from 7:00 p.m. to
10:00 p.m. We would like to
meet you. If you can't come,
and have questions, call us at
235-2351."
If you think we have crazy
weather patterns in
southwestern Ontario, you
should try Manitoba for a
week. Particularly the week
of September 26 to the 30th,
1983 - if you really want to see
weather changes.
I was in Manitoba that
week on a business trip. It
was cool here in Ontario when
I flew to Winnipeg, so I was
dressed warmly in a kilt and
wool jacket. 1 got off the plane
to find 80 degree
temperatures, and Winnipeg-
gers dressed in shorts and sun
dresses. Fortunately, 1 had
packed some light weight
summer dresses and i was
able to keep cool.
Unfortunately, trying to
keep cool did not remain a
problem. Two days later
temperatures had dropped to
freezing levels and the dif-
ficulty was in keeping warm.
My wool jacket was not suffi-
cient - a Hudson Bay coat
would have been more ap-
propriate.. Winnipeggers
changed from sun dresses to
furs.
You've probably heard it
said that Portage and Main in
Winnipeg is the coldest corner
in Canada. Well, not only is it
the coldest corner, it's also
the windiest. I'm sure Win-
nipeg could challenge
Chicago for the title "the Win-
dy City."
in any case, it was on a
very windy day that 1 had to
keep two appointments near
the corner of Portage and
Main. 1 was staying at a
downtown hotel just a couple
of blocks away, and decided
to walk to meet the people i
was interviewing.
1 soon learned that one does
not wear a wrap-around skirt
in downtown Winnipeg - i
won't go into the details - but
it is very difficult to juggle a
camera bag, brief case and
purse, while holding on to

Travelling throughout the
Province on a Task Force
looking into problems of those
living and w. rking in Rural
Ontario it became increasing-
ly obvious that certain sectors
of the Agriculture industry
was in very serious trouble.
Just recently I wrote an open
letter to the Minister of
Agriculture and Food which I
believe you will find in-
teresting. The text is as
follows:
"In your travels throughout
the Province, you have no
doubt become aware as I
have of the serious economic
problems that continue to
face much of our agriculture
industry.
These problems are par-
ticularly acute in the red
meat sectors, specifically the
beef industry. With livestock
prices low and crop prices
and other input costs high,
many of our farmers may be
left to harvest nothing more
than bankruptcies this fall.
Cattle prices have declined
from $83.00 per hun-
dredweight in the second
quarterof1983, to the low 70's
in 1982. Your own Ministry of
Agriculture economic
forecasts predict poor profits
in feeding cattle through
mid -1984.
Contrary to the assertion in
your recent speech this past
month in Owen Sound, where
you stated that that farmers
"are on the way out of the
recession, financial binds and
low returns", the sad truth of
the matter is that things have
never been worse for a ma-
jority of our hog and beef
producers.
Without some emergency
financial assistance from
your government, part of the
beef industry will quickly be
lost to Ontario and shift to .
Beef in
Times -Advocate, October 12, 1983
trouble
other provinces. As you are
no doubt aware, the Quebec
beef stabilization program of-
fers a total of $191.60 per cow,
and $165 for each feeder
animal carried to slaughter.
With these levels of govern-
ment guarantees, our
farmers cannot hope to corn-
pete with Quebec farmers
who are coming here to pur-
chase cattle, and who can af-
ford to pay more. In many
cases, these cattle are being
fed here and later being taken
back to Quebec to be includ-
ed i.. their program. The
Saskatchewan Beef Stabiliza-
tion Plan has paid out 82.6
million in subsidies for the
month of April, May and June
of this year.
Our beef producers need
emergency assistance now, in
order to keep them in produc-
tion. They can no longer wait
for a yet to materialize Tri -
Partite Stabilization Plan. If
there is to be a stabilization
program, beef producers
must be assured now that
there will be an announce-
ment for a stabilization price
made retroactive to this year.
Moreover, any such program
must cover all sectors of the
beef industry, including cow -
calf, stockers and slaughter
cattle."
I also issued a joint settle-
ment with my colleague, Jim
McGuigan, Liberal MPP for
Kent Elgin, describing the
Government's Beginning
Farmers Program as "accep-
table to farmers in name on-
ly since it lacks any real
substance.
"The program excludes
farmers whoe • income has
been derived 60 percent from
rented land or rented
facilities" thus excluding
"enterprising farmers' sons
or daughters who realize that
Read for MS
Starting this week, ten
schools from the Public and
Separate School Baords in
Huron County will be reading
to raise funds for the Multiple
Sclerosis Society.
The READ-a-thon program
in Huron County will involve
1264 students who hope to
raise $3,600. The 1982 pro-
gram involved five of those
ten schools. These schools
registered 227 students who
read a total of 1388 books rais-
ing $1,102.25.
Mary Vezeau, regional
READ-a-thon coordinator
said, "If everyone in the
Huron area sponsored a child
in their neighbourhood they
would be helping to motivate
that child to read while rais-
ing funds for the crippling
disease of young adults."

your skirt an' rying to main-
tain some dig ty. I noticed
that businessw, 'ten in Win-
nipeg do not '. 'ar wrap-
around skirts, no si, *is of any
kind. Most were wise'v dress-
ed in pants.
But I don't want y 'u to
think 1 spent hours wand€-ing
around the corner of Portage
and Main trying to hang on to
my skirt which was blowing
in the four winds. The truth is
that one can't cross the street
at the corner of Portage and
Main, and all this nonsense
about it being the coldest cor-
ner in Canada is a myth that
Winnipeggers continue to
perpetuate for some reason.
You see, the intersection is
serviced by a climate -
controlled underground con-
course that is just like a shop-
ping mall. Outside, three foot
high walls along the curb pre-
vent people from crossing the
street and force then to use
the underground concourse.
This presents a new set of
problems to visitors in Win-
nipeg. One could wander
around the concourse for
hours before you found the
right escalator to take you to
where you wanted to be on the
surface.
In any case, i was able to
find my way out of the maze
to catch my flight home, and
also dash my little rental car
all over the countryside first.
I visited such spots as Por-
tage La Prairie, Brandon,

because of the low down
payments on a farm which
they could make and because
of the currently high interest
rates, they could not present-
ly survive as farm owners. As
a result, they have been left to
rent their land and often swap
labour for machinery so they
can work leased ground..."
"These enterprising begin-
ning farmers are the very
people with farming ex-
perience and risk taking at-
titudes that Ontario should
assist to become farm
owners. It makes no sense
whatsoever that if a new
agricultural graduate is suc-
cessful in making money for
the $100,000 down payment for
a farm by renting land, then
that person is doomed to be a
perpetual renter as far as the
Conservative Government is
concerned.
"Those eligible under the
program are recent
agricultural graduates who
often lack farming experience
and those who have worked
for their fathers or other
farmers for wages.
"The other major
drawback of the program is
that the Government has

chosen not to make the pro-
gram retroactive. The
farmers who have been in the
most serious financial dif-
ficulty in the last three years
as a result of unprecendented
high interest rates and low
commodity prices have been
the young and starting
farmers. However, according
to the Conservative Govern-
ment, these farmers are also
ineligible for financial
assistance.
"If this program is to be of
any real assistance to Ontario
farmers, it must be changed
to include beginning farmers
who presently rent their land
and must be made retroactive
to the last three years. Other-
wise the program is a sham."
