BLUEBERRIES Pint 49 Public meeting on beer tents to be held The future of beer tents and music festivals may well hinge on the input and comments of local citizens at a special public meeting Thursday. Town council has called for a public meeting on beer tents, music festivals and related matters after receiving a petition following the Optimist Club's second annual festival in Harbour Park. The meeting will be held at 7.30 p.m. Thursday, in the board room • of the Regional Assessment Office on Gloucester Terrace. Council has been dealing with the controversy of beer tents for over a year and while they at one time • considered restricting beer tents to the harbour area, they have weighed each case on its own merit. Subsequent to the Optimist Club Music Festival in June, council received a petition froin 73 citizens who claimed the festival created undue noise, unruly behaviour, loud music and traffic congestion. The petition urged• council to ban all beer tents in town, including an outdoor licenced area set aside for the cor.sumption of alcoholic beverages, especially in a residential area. Through the vehicle of a public meeting, council hopes that comments and suggestions will be for- thcoming from a cross-section of the affected com- munity. Last year council had solicited comments -from affected service clubs on matter but declined to make a firm resolution on a relocation site. Service clubs involved were not in favor of ' relocation last year, but such a move may be inevitable. House robbed A house on Picton Street was broken into on Friday evening and several items, including a stereo, were stolen. Poligetre Obit investigating. • . ,t�,\. • An incident involving a local man who drove his vehicle onto the CPR trestle late Saturday 'night, becoming stranded, has been turned overle CPR police for investigation. Police also report a few inciden ilful damage and minor thefts along With a high speed chase over the weekend. • Round'n About with Martha Rathburn I'm . still taking things apart and putting them back together again: It is one of my good or bad habits - sometimes .I wonder. AND I'm still unpacking and re- packing things. Now, what kind of a habit is THAT? Well it seems I have so many things I want to keep that I'm running out of places to keep them. So many boxes have yielded nothing I can use at the mo- ment but I haven't created a parking place for them to be on hand when I want them. When I DO want them I can't FIND them - and so it goes on and on! . I • found my precious old magazine - a Ladies' Home Journal of April 1907 again. Every time I come upon it I have to look through it from front to back - ,re -read the items I have read before and so many of them 'make you realize how fortunate we are in the .80's compared to the early 1900's. I'll bet there isn't ane teenager in 100 who has a cedar chest or a "hope" chest. Both were a must in those days. At least they had somewhere , to hide their precious "junk that they wanted to keep and a place to store good woollens. We have so many man-made 'fibres now that the moths don't like, that we don'tneed to worry about them. In glancing over the GOOD ideas for the homemaker - we still have them don't we" The homemakers that is if _used with care - kerosene or coal oil was a great aid for cleaning: I'm sure these two names are for ONE item! It is still' on the market and still a great cleaner. The best cleaner, I find, is WATER. No, not a funnel. So many of our quickie 'cleaners' aren't any better than simply wiping with water before you use the cleaning product - or NO cleaning product - .most of the time the water does the job: Magic! Almost any of your regular soaps 'or detergents can be put up against 'the new ex - .pensive stuff if you will only make two wipes instead of one. Try it even on your food splashed stove or the countertop' - as I said - magic! Kerosene and coal oil are, or were, stinky, hard to store - and not always easy to find. BUT, a.little goes a long way - and that little bit of oil in your pail for cleaning paint, indoors or outside, and for the windows and other glass, removes dirt quickly and leaves a great shine. If you happen to add too mulchoil you get a great SMEAR and. W.I. sees sli Martha Rathburn you'll be a-cussin' before you. get that off. Sb WATCH it! It. is also great for stains - rust • or fresh paint and especially tar or heavy black grease stains. I've tried the great foam- ing sprays and gels but wasn't convinced. If we just hada fancy container for the product, we might still be us- ing that "little bit of oil" in- stead of polluting 'your lakes and rivers with the suds of these "new" products. . Another item 01; this great old list was i et.: care. If yoe don't want t" Stang yeur rugs on the clotteeluu.' and beat them with a beater or broom or turn the hose on them — what a mess.

As far as I'm concerned everyone should have one and I haven't one because it has disappeared - vanished! Tiger Dunlop Women's In- stitute July meeting was held in Colborne Township Hall on 'Thursday, July 30 at 8 p.m. President, Mrs. R. Buchanan, opened the meeting and welcomed all present who then took part in the opening exercises with Mrs. G. Kaitting at. the piano. Mrs. Allan Stoll introduced the " guest speakers,;. Bud gChamney and Don Haines of Auburn who, on behalf of the Auburn ,Lions Club, .showed very interesting slides on the seeing eye or leader dog for the blind which is a special project of Lions Club Inter- national. They showed train- ing at the leader dog school in Rochester, Michigan, both for the dogs and for those who require the help of a leader dog, all of which was very enlightening and educa- tional. After a question and answer period, M.rs. Buchanan thanked Mr. Charnz1 y and Mr. Haines for their talk and interesting slides and presented them with a cheque from the In- stitute to help in this wor- thwhile program. The rol call, "An achieve- ment by a handicapped per- son", brought to mind many of the achievements of peo- ple known in the surrounding district and made one ever grateful for the perseverance of those who are handicapped.. Minutes of the last meeting were read by the secretary, Mrs. Allan Stoll. A request for leaders for the - 4-H project, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" which is a project dealing with food, was an- nounced and anyone in the district interested in being a leader or assistant leader for this project is asked to con- tact Mrs. Helen Stoll at 524- 2502 or Dorothy Feagan at 524-6491 this week if possible. The Institute received an es nle.d olborne corner Gertrude Kaittiug,:correspondent 524-2076 invitation from the Dungan- non Women's Institute to join them for their August meetiet Thursday, August 6 in the Nile Church with, the speaker being a member. of the O:P.P. Mrs. Buchanan gave a very interesting motto, "Your attitude toward the disabled can be their biggest handicap". Many people have a handicap, be it a minor or a major disability, and tolerance of the public and a helping hand from -friends and acquaintances is of. great assistance. One rule to follow in this regard is, "See the person first, the handicap second." Members discussed plans for the August meeting and those present chose to visit the museum in Goderich as a group on Thursday, August 27 starting at 1 p.m. Those who are free can enjoy lunch in a group at a restaurant afterwards. After the closing exer- cises, members and, visitors GODERICH`SIGNAL-STAR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5, 1981—PAGE 3 og training enjoyed finger food for lunch and a ° very friendly at: mosphere. It has been an annual custom for many years to' observe Colborne.X.ernetery. Memorial Service, ustially the first Sunday in August. Approximately 100 men and women gathered at the cemetery this past Sunday to take part in. the Memorial Service and to pause and remember loved ones and friends who have departed. The beautiful flowers placed at the graves of loved ones and the well -kept cemetery speaks for itself. At 2 p.m. Reeve William K. Bogie welcomed all pre- sent and thanked all for at- tending and introduced the guest speaker, the Reverend G.L: Royal and the McMillan Family, musicians for , the service. Rev. Royal presided and read the scripture from 1 Corinthians, Chapter 15 from willich his inspiring Jesuit priest, Father 0 Keefe dies in Pickering The Reverend Cyril B.

Since most lumps in the breast are discovered by a woman herself, it is recommended that all women practise regular Breast Self -Examination (BSE In this way, early changes in the breast tissue will be recognized. A woman learns to recognize what is normal for her and can, thus, detect abnormalities earlier. If these changes should be cancer, the sooner they are treated expertly, the better. What dangers are associated with air pollu- tion?— Since . the atmosphere of large industrial centres is polluted with much waste material and since some of this material contains chemicals which are capable, of causing cancer, there is evidence that there is a Is cancer a single slightly increased risk of disease? — developing some cancers, No. Cazli er is the name such as lung cancer, if you given to a group of over one live in a city.

The Canadian Cancer Society stands ready, through its education pro-, gram, to answer many of the questions that Canadians have about this disease, ac- cording to Maurice J.

Here are some , of the queries most commonly asked: What causes cancer?— In experimental animals different , types of cancer. can be produced by amany agents, including certain chemicals, hormones, viruses and radiation. Some of these agents have also been shown to cause cancer in humans, but in most cases of human cancer the cause is not known. There is a direct relationship between the smoking of cigarettes and lung cancer, and in industry a number of cancer-causing chemicals have been iden- tified. years until the time of his death. - In 1969, Father O'Keefe asked to be relieved of his administrative respon- sibilities to allow him to devote most of his time to his two main interests - teaching and research: In recent years, Father O'Keefe has done extensive research on the period of the French Enlightenment, resulting in a number of ar- ticles: and papers, as well as two books.
