Some adults are fuels, show them how to conserve the world's resources. They will tank you for your reminders one day. Pump this information to them now: the use of gasoline is acce- lerating! How to conserve gasoline: 1. Don't be an idle fool; turn the car off if it's not moving. 2. Quick starts and stops may be moving experiences, but they waste gas. 3. Air conditioners in cars increase gasoline use. Be cool and turn them off. 4. Life in the fast lane may be fun, but slower speeds use less gas. 5. Don't drive around the bend — walk if you can. 6 Make sure your tires are inflated properly. Tired tires need more energy to make the move. 7. Take heavy things out of the trunk and have a gas in a light oar. 8-. Unless you want to stop, keep yorurfoot off'the. brake. A lazy food can break the world. 9. Do as many errands as you can at once. One trip takes less gasoline than four. Be car full. (c) Toronto Sun Features 1980 by MacKay Fairfield Tate owls sitting on fence posts'.'

(James Fitzgerald photo) Young author on tour Meet Gordon Korman! This young Canadian author is 16 years old and he has already published four books. The presses haven't stopped rolling since Gordon wrote "This can't be happening at. MacDonald Hall" when he was 13. It began as an assignment for Korman's Grade 7 English class. His teacher told the class to write a novel. Most of his classmates did stories about 20 pages in length. But Gordon. just kept writing. Author Gordon. never went to boarding school and the hilarious escapades of the two heroes, Bruno and Boots, are purely a work of his ii'nagination. The second book "Go jump in the pool" and his third work "Beware the fish" continue the Bruno and Boots series. These books are aimed at readers ranging from 8 to 12 years old. Gordon's fourth book, due .for release in Sep- tember, is the book that's going to be his biggest. Entitled "Who is Bugs Potter?", it deals with a 15 -year-old high school musician who worms his way into drumming with different rock groups, accidentally becoming famous quite unbeknown to himself. The film rights to "Bugs Potter" ' are also being purchased with a full-length motion picture in mind for theatrical release. It goes on. He's also sold a fifth book, called "I want to go home!" about summer camp. That one is probably the funniest of the lot and is scheduled for release, also by Scholastic TAB, in Spring 1981. Huron County Public Library is pleased to have Gordon Korman on Saturday, November 29, at the Goderich Branch Library at 10:30 a.m. and Clinton Branch Library at1p.m. Get your free ad- mission ticket .,at the library.

Column praises Bartliff's A restuarant column in last Friday's London Free Press says that doughnuts from Bartliff's Bakery in Clinton are among the best in this part of Ontario. Barb.•and Chris Dennett in their weekly column "At The Plate said real" doughnut freaks should take a drive to Clinton. Part of their column reads: "First, the subject of doughnuts, a food favorite that has been receiving a great deal of attention from the fast food boys in recent years. To cut a long story short, although the availability is up, the quality in many cases is most definitely down. "It was with great interest then that we received a short note from an interested reader, who advised that the best doughnuts in Southwestern Ontario were to_ be found at Bartliff's Bakery on Albert Street in not -so - far -away Clinton. "We happened to be up that way a weekend or so ago and dropped in for coffee, lemon meringue pie and a peek at the doughnuts in this com- bination bakery and lunch counter. "In the end, that``'"in- nocent peek turned into a major investment. We bought a dozen and a half in a huge confectionary box and carried them back to try on friends and neighbors. The com- ments, accommpanied by gradually widening eyes, included `terrific,' `great taste -and texture,' and a 'how did you pay for these.' "Doug and Helen Bartliff bake six days a week in an establishment that was started by Doug's father in 1906. As well as great doughnuts, they also turn out a wide varity of cakes, breads, pies and cookies. If you happen to be up that for a weekend drive, or you can't wait for a good doughnut, drop into their Albert street shop. It's right downtown by the main intersection and open seven days a week. Sunday the door opens at noon."

It takes skill Drive perfectly each time What is a perfect' driver? Cananyone ever be perfect in anything? Young Olympic athletes have proven on more than one occasion that perfection Is possible in human endeavours, and yes, the Canada Safety,. r Council says it ispossible for a driver to be perfect, Perhaps not quite all the time.l3ut almost, "Perfect Driving" is described in the Defensive Driving Course us a trip completed. without having been involved in an accident; without having caused or contributed to an• ac- cident; without having violated the law; without having abused or misused the vehicle, and; without having been discourteous ..to other road users. .When looked at that way, perfectionin driving does not seem to be so far out of reach. Driving perfection requires a degree of continual self- analysis of driving skills and behaviour as an important part of driving responsibility. A. perfect driving recordis based on one. safe trip at a time! Man's ears are not made to shut, but his mouth is.
