The Goderich Signal-Star, 1974-12-27, Page 15P M P , OQDERICHI SIONAL.STAR, PWDAY, DECE! B$R u , Dad .needs Iotterywin to fix up the basement MY HOPES FOFI 1975 For the year of 1975 I hope that Dad wins' the Olympic Lot tery. This is because if he doesn't he will have to take out - a second morgage to fix up the house. By fixing up the house I mean that he might build a greenhouse, beam the down- stairs, install a new septic tank, fixup our celler (almost im- possible) and maybe even build a pool. In 1975 I would like the town to build a new pool and arena because they,have each searved the town .well since they were built and now deserve to have a load taken Off their shoulders. I would also like the town to .retain it's small town size and friendlyness while at the same time build the new shopping, malls for greater selection and better prices Oh yes, one last thing I would like •the town to covert to solar energy so as to save much needed energy and to set an example toother towns.

Also I hope Canada does not have a civil war because civil wars are alway the worst kind when brothers a fight against brothers. In 1975 I hope the United Nations can declare "world peace" to the rest of the world. I think I should also say that I hope we find a way to manufac- ture tasty, nutritcous food and a cure for diseaces like cancer. My last wish that I would like to come true in'1975 is that the wars in Ireland and the Middle East are stopped. Mike Grace Grade -8 St. Mary's MY HOPES FOR THE FUTURE, For the New Year., I think the important things I'm hoping for are: - 'that there will be less traf-' fic. - this'would mean fewer traf- fic accidents and death's. - the world would be a' lot these products cost more than you think. Another killer is "Pollution". Garbage corning out of pipes leading to our lakes and river*. are killing hundreds of fish and slowly ruining the thoughts of going down to the town beach for recreation in the summer. Factories are letting At smoke and smog everyday. In the United States of America, the death rate is tremendous Man wasn't made to kill eact}, other but the way people are being murdered each year you'd never know it. I._think machines will over- power the skill of man. For in- stance in the past, cars, air- planes and trains have put the use of the foot,' to almost null except for those who are -energetic. Will our gas and oil lase -or by the end of 1975 will we be paying even more for the oil we, have to have imported to -Canada? • Arson is becoming a more noticeable crime than it was thirty to forty years ago. Today The prices will climb higher and higher if the government wouldn't do anything about it, and 1 think, its starting to cause a Depression. Tom Koster 90 Wellington St. Grade 8 ,.St. Mary's. MY PREDICTIONS QF THE YEAR 1975 I will be lf4 in 1975, and I predict th.at'the Buffalo Sabres will win the Stanley Cup. 'I hope that I pass in 1975, and do well in high school. To be five feet, nine inches in 1975 would be just my wi ,h because I wanted to be on the football team in high school. My mom and Dad are real nice people so I hope that they win• the Olympic lottery. To have a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year for the under- privileged people would be just what I would want.

That is what I am hoping for in 1975, and I hope for everyone to have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS. Deborah Buchanan Age 12 St. Mary's Grade 7 WHA I HOPE WILL HAPPEN, IN THE YEAR '75 What I am hoping'for next Christmas is, I' would like tai see more colorful and different decorations on the hydro posts on the square. I also hope they don't just go around the square but also down the streets from the square. But, also reaching as far out the highways as possible so that people from far .and near towns would come ;t.. just to see 'our town.

There .is just one though which sends shivers up and down my spine. It hurts me deeply when I think of this. I then get down on my knees and pray to God Almighty that the children of underdevetoped countries have a Christmas as happy as the one which I am about to witness the following day. I am now concentrating on my beloved country which is slowly falling apart from the' force of inflation. My hope is that the major governments of the world come together in a convention and discuss way to control inflation. My last sorrowful though is that the `town folk respect. the trash -cans instead of throwing their garbage onto the streets of our beloved town.• In , con- clusion these issues would be improved so everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous 1975. • Rick Leddy St. Mary's 'School Grade 8' I'd like it .to be the best it possibly can. If we all work together maybe someday it will, Annie McDotlald R.M.P.S. Age 1a; Grade 8 THE, PREDICTION OF THE YEAR 1975 0 • I predict, that jobs Will, be more scarce because of com- puters. Jobs will be harder to. get a hole ,of. The'prices of Food will be unbelievable all over the world. I will give you some examples that I predl:ct• that has already gone up and ;climb even higher. Gas will . be skyrocketing, pop will be up to thirty cents and gum for small .people will be up to three cents. The. price of meat is bad now, just wait until 1975. It was said that there was a oil shortage in the united States, but there wasn't. When there was a show on the oil shortage, they found out that there wasn't. They said there was enough oil : in the United "i States to last up x to seventy five years without 'even pumping for . oil out of the ground. You won't . be able to buy anything for „under a dollar, sugar will go up to two dollars anal fifty cents a pound. Yc u won't be able .to go out of Canada much. Holidays will he too expensive, .everyone will complain because taxes will he `too high,..there will be strikes and more strikes of salt, -fishing industries and other strikes for higher wages. WHAT WILL BECOME OF 1975 In 1975 will we live in houses or will poverty send us to shacks? Will prices go skyhigh until we have snot la penny to our name? Who ^tnows? Cer- tainly not "me, taut I do have ideas. ;Mead the newspapers, ' . �. In 1975 will they say "In- flation a Killer of Man and • 'Money” or will they say "In- flation cut.in Half" It all depends on the prices of food such as canned goods, beef, and sugar. You can't blame the far- mer for the price of beef, dairy products and eggs because to buy the materials to produce Fertilizer & Chemicals 8-3\2-16 6-24-24 16-16-16 THERE WILL BPRICE INCREASE ON JAN. 1, 1975 Buy NowandBe�tThe Increase LET�US ASSIST YOU WITH YOUR CHEMICAL -REQUIREMENTS NOW 4 Port I TH ert 529-7 • people ,will go without food, presents and all "the other pleasures life 'brings. I feel a depre:ssi n is coming closer and closer, 'pretty soon pop will he thirty-five to forty cents. These are my hopes and predictions of the year 1975. )y Pat' Murphy St. Mary's Grade 8 GODERICH IN 1975 In the ver of 1975, I think "that Goderich will have drastic changes made.. For example Goderich (after` building the mall) will expand in population and also in business. Goderich is not my home town but I would like very much to see this town grow. With more people' coming into Goderich that means more business. With more business • that means more larger com- panies: With these expanding more goods will come in",and thus this later on will lead to • an industrial empire: This con- cludes on how Ithink this town will-` be. looked upon in 1975 and on.
