WESTONS M�ALTYME HAM$URG oR It was quite a project initiated by Mr. Maguire and the executive of the branch, one of the truly- needed projects. Just think of the amount., 440 hours at so many dollars per hour would come to? What would the job have cost had it been , con- tracted on-tracted out? A sign of bigger and better projects to come for our Branch, as our president. stated recently, "you ain't seen nothing yet!'_' Our members can 'be justifiably proud of a job well done.

Then we were free to do whatever we wanted. "Classes were mostly about leadership skills and we talked about communication with others, listening and helping others. There was tennis, badminton, basketball, canoeing, everything! 1 even water skiied for the first time. "There were 19 of us, and we all stayed in one big house called a wig- wam. I really enjoyed this camp and. I thunk it Was a good learning experience with' the • classes,.. andalso *good_ experience in our free time with all the recreational - activities available. "This camp, was sponsored by United Co- operatives of Ontario and I am grateful to the Hensall District Co-op for sending me to this camp."

The sweet taste of corn The flavor of sweet Ontario corn is in- describably delicious, one. that most of us eagerly look forward to this time of year. For superb results 'buy the freshest corn you can; keep it refrigerated, plan to use it the same day, and cook it properly, suggest the marketing specialists at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. When boiling corn, simply drop cobs into boiling water and cook medium to large size ears for 5 to 7 minutes. That's all it takes for corn to be cooked to perfection. Boiling longer toughens the kernels and flavor is lest. Remove the . cobs from the water as soon as they're cooked. They become water -soaked and lose flavor if left in the cooking water. Corn can also be Smile The best reducing exercise is moving the head slowly from left to right just after being b-ffte d a second helping. barbecued, which is very convenient during the summer days. First, peel back the husks without removing them. Remove the silk. Soak the ears in cold water for 5 minutes, then reclothe in the husks. Wrap each ear in foil and twist ends closed. Use enough foil to cover three times. Place the wrapped corn on a grill above the fire. Cook 20 to. 25 minutes: Give each ear a quarter turn every five minutes. Sportsfest's a winner for Goderich GODERICH - Every sporting facility in Goderich was taxed to the limit , as over 2,000 athletes from the region participated in Sportsfest '80 on August 15, 16 and 17. The .weekend event was sponsored by the Lake Huron" Zone Recreation Association and offered competition in 18 sports. Despite the success of the event, recreation director Jim Moore said that the organizing committee may have gone too far,,this year, creating some organizational problems. was too big to handle," Mr. Moore admitted and he is now exploring the possibility of holding an annual Funfest in Goderich. This would feature a more manageable eight to 10 events and 1,000 to 2,000 participants. • At the Sportsfest, only two events had to be cancelled, gymnastics and archery, because of a. lack of entries. However, most of the others events were well attended and the 10 kilometre' run attracted a record 46 entries. Cycling was a major attraction as well with over 125 cyclists 11-4 competing in the event. Political opinion.... ,• from page 4. bilingual bill was passed making everbody learn French if they want a job in the federal house as a civil servant or anything else unless maybe a janitor. Bill Davis and his government has gone bilingual, giving services at all levels of government, federal, provincial, municipal, , in crown corporations, in the Armed Forces, the RCMP and in all government commissions and agencies, in all parts of Canada excoOt Quebec. Such insistence would come from the federal house itself or from the French Canadian organization, in- cited and funded by the Trudeau government. When their bill was passed Mr. Pelletier said now this is not to be discussed in any way. The media and magazines wouldn't write any article on the matter unless favorable and to this day there is only one that I know of that has, the Toronto Sun. 1 congratulate the editor of that paper. When it was before the house there only two members spoke against it. When the Quebec referendum was on and the "N'o's" won Mr. Davies said that now that they have to put their trust in the rest of Canada we will show them what we will do for there when they are all ready in control of our country unlawfully. All these privileges are breaking the BNA. They sure won't worry about it but he wants to make a new one French. Before they do anything about the BNA the people should have a vote on it and it should have to carry by 75 per cent to bring it back and Quebec should not be allowed to vote. They have gene only French speaking while shoving their French down our throats. We haven't got too many heroes on our side. J U. Andrews, author of Bilingual Today, French Tomorrow and Back Door Bilingualism deserves a lot of credit and Mr. Joner of Moncton, New Brunswick and Mr. Richardson of Winnipeg. There is an order alliance for the preservation of English in Canada and they are doing a good job for English. The heroes for the French are' Trudeau and his government, Joe Clark and his party, Bill Davis and his government, Smith and his party and , the NDP of both houses. So if they don't give us a chance to vote on this and bilingualism is repelled, we have had it and Trudeau has won Canada without firing a shot.English "' A disgusted speaking Canadian a Mr. Asa OeeveS, Henson
