"It's not only the drinking driver we are trying to reach, but those who are able to take away somebody's car keys or have the foresight to appoint a designated driver," Mr. Scott said. Alcohol-related driver fatalities over the last three Christmas periods averaged 14, down from a previous 10 year average of 39 deaths. The public education campaign an- nounced is designed to sustain the general public's awareness of the perils of drinking and driving, while bringing the message closer to home. "Research has shown that while most peo- ple are now aware of the dangers of drinking and driving, very few are aware that they are part of the problem and'the solution. Our theme 'Only you can stop drinking and driv- ing' was developed to have each and every Coming Evnts BINGO: Vanastra Rec Centre, Tuesdays, 8 p.m. First reg. card $1., fifteen reg. $20. games, three sharePthe-wealth.

The exhibition includes 77 serigraphs and serigraphic proofs produced for the series, 12 unpublished serigraphs, and selected documentation. The series was published by William E. Coutts, the founder of Hallmark Cards Canada. Twenty-six Canadian artists contributed to the series, among them several members of the Group of Seven such as Franklin Carmichael, Lawren Harris, A.Y. Jackson, Franz Johnston, -and J.E.H MacDonald, who as a group had already gained national recognition. Among other artists represented are Charles Comfort, A.J. Casson, and Dr. Frederick Banting, co - discoverer of insulin, who was also an ac- complished amateur painter. • A.Y. Jackson, who encouraged William E. Coutts to issue the series, saw the project as a source of revenue"for some of the artists who were experiencing. financial dif- NEW YEAR'S EVE with "Brenden Gillam" TICKETS: $30. per couple.

CANADIAN SOCIETE SET' DU CANECER E at the AGO ficulties, and also as an opportunity to break with previous traditions and create contem- porary Canadian greeting cards. Unfor- tunately, the series was launched during the Depression and proved to be a financial failure. Although the actual number of cards printed is uncertain, it is known that the price ranged from $37.50 to $67.50 per one hundred cards, and that only 25 to 50 ex- amples of each were sold. William E. Coutts was a great supporter of the arts in Canada and since the founding of his company in 1916 (then The William E. . Coutts Company), he had often turned to Canadian artists for greeting card subject matter that illustrated Canada. The Painters of Canada series, which began towards the end of the 1920s, started an on- going tradition for the company. According to Mr. Michael Chortyk of Hallmark Cards Canada, who took part in developing the series, it represents the greatest achieve- ment in Coutts's production history with respect to style, processes, and quality of product. At the AGO, the exhibition is sponsored by Canada Post Corporation and Hallmark Cards. Addiction program for the county TORONTO - The Huron County Health Unit has received approval to establish a full-time assessment and referral service for people with alcohol and drug abuse pro- blems, Health Minister Murray Elston and Agriculture Minister Jack Riddell, MPP for Huron -Middlesex, announced recently. "Until now, addiction assessment and referrals in Huron County have been' handl- ed by the volunteers of the Huron Council For Action on Alcohol and Other Drugs (CAAD)," Mr. Elston said. "I am pleased to announce that my ministry will provide an- nual funding of $97,000 and start-up costs of $4,160 to the Huron Addiction Assessment and. Referral •Program.". .. ., , .. . The funding Will payfor rent, supplies and the salaries of co-ordinator, an assessment and case management counsellor, and a part-time secretary. The program will operate out of health unit offices in Goderich, Brussels, Clinton, Exeter, Seaforth and Wingham. It will pro- vide comprehensive assessments for pro- blem drinkers and drug abusers, and refer them to community agencies for treatment. Mandatory training in 1987 About 100 persons will be served annually. and many other people - families, friends, employers - will benefit from the results. The program will also assist the Huron County Health Unit, the Huron Council for Action on Alcohol and Other Drugs, and the Addiction Research Foundation in develop- ing preventive, educational programs for schools, agencies and community groups in the county. , "I am confident that this service will reduce alcohol and drug abuse in Huron County," Mr. Riddell said. This funding initiative is part of the almost $3 -million in new money being an- nounced this week for nine new commuhity- based addiction programs and the expan- sion of three existing ones. "In making these funding decisions, I have taken into account particular local situations, such as the •need for programs for' youth, native Ontarians, francophones, and women; I have also continued to expand the general residential and day treatment programs,". Mr. Elston said. Effective January 1, 1987, 'hunter educa- tion courses will be mandatory for all pro- spective hunters and any hunter who cannot provide proof of previous hunting ex- perience before they will be permitted to take the hunting licence examination, On- tario Natural Resources Minister, Vincent Kerrio announced recently. Hunters who can produce an Ontario resi- dent's hunting licence issued after January 1, 1968, hunting licence examination cer- tificate issued after January 1, 1968, or hun- ting licence verification certificate will not be required to take the training courses. Currently, only hunters born after December 31, 1954, are required to complete the training courses before taking their On- tario resident hunting licence examination.

"They will.also ensure that all candidates, regardless of age, are treated equally." Ontario's Hunter Education Program — established in 1957 — has been instrumental in improving hunter behavior and reducing the number of hunting accidents. In 1960, there were a total of 154 hunting accidents including 36 fatalities, compared with 39 including four fatalities in 1985. "Hunting remains one of the safer outdoor activities, considering that each year there are approximately 500,000 individual hunters who participate in a total of 5 million hunter days," Mr. Kerrio said.
