A tradition of Quality, Value and Service in Jewellery retailing and guaranteed repairs that, spanned 31 years at the same location. Six months ago, after much negotiations, a compromise was reached concerning the expansion plans of our landlord. We were thrilled! Even ' though temporary closure, to allow for major renovations, would be a necessi- tY, our eventual continuation of retailing at this location would indeed be a reality again. We are proud to announce that that day has come! • Thday, we have a totally new look outside and in. But that is, in fact, all that is new! Thday, we are proud to • announce, the Tradition Continues. Drop in soon. Reaquaint yourself with a proven and trusted business philosophy, a retailing tradition, that withstands thepressures of progress and the test of time. We think you'll like our new look. We know you'll like our prices. QUALITY, VALUE & SERVICE , •IN DIAMOND, GOLD JEWELLERY Si WATCH RETAILING "& REPAIRS SINCE \\I 1955 44.

(photos by Lou -Ann Hope) Nico Peters advocates wise spending It pays to be a Conservative riding even when a Liberal Government is in power stated Nico Peters; Huron Progressive Conservative candidate in the next provin- cial election. Pointing out that more, money was being allocated to Conservative -held ridings to build roads than to ridings such as Huron in a con- certed effort to buy more votes in those Conservative ridings. Peter pointed to Highway 4 between Blyth and Wingpam as a road desperately in need of rebuilding. He pointed out that current plans are to merely patch and, repair only the poorest portions of the highway. "We have a right to expect that the major roads in our coun- ty are up to standards," he said. Over 50 area supporters turned out to a luncheon at the Wingham Golf and Curling Club to hear and meet Peters and Ross Stevenson, the Conservative Agriculture Critic, last Monday. • Stevenson stated that while the Conser- • vatives had always worked to keep the number of 'government employees at a minimum, the Liberals in just the past two years have increased the number of civil servants by 5,000 new employees fully at taxpayers expense. Noting that there had been nineteen (19) tax increases since. the Liberals came to. power, Stevenson said, "...the (Liberal) government has 35% more money taken from taxpayer's pockets and as long as we are willing to pay it they will be happy to spend it." • Affirming that the agricultural crisis is not about to quickly disappear, Stevenson advocated giving farmers richer subsidies • along with incentives to take some. - cropland out of cash crop production. Though not giving further details of his party's position on 11# .he says that "an agricultural flyer" would soon be available to the public. • Peters stated that he would like the cur- rent provincial government to display "more of the ,financial management. that all wage earners, farmers and small businesses are expected ' to display". "I want my children to inherit the prosperity and riches of Ontario, not the mounting , provincial deficit and a group of aimless programs... financial management does • not mean no spending — but rather wise spending. We are expected. toi do this, why , can't we expect our provincial government to do the same?" . Dr. Kahn delivers paper at Oxford • from page 1 Dr. Khan has taught graduate courses at the University of Ottawa and at O.I.S.E., Toronto. According to Dr. Khan, his dream came true nearly two decades ago when he was appointed Chief Clinical Psychologist by the Nepean Township School Board. He was the first Canadian Psychologist to organize clinical services within the Board of Education in Canada. Most of the children were treated within the school and the classroom teacher was a part of the treatment program. The clinics became very popular and not only the Ot- tawa dailies "The Journal" and "The Citizen", but the Winnipeg Tribute, the Ed- monton Journal and the Vancouver Sun also wrote articles on Dr. Khan's clinics. Dr. Khan's next goal was to work with • the Department of Psychiatry. He found that it was most important to work in dif- ferent areas of psychology to become a good clinician.. An opportunity came in 1970 when Cornwall General Hospital (200 bed hospital) reorganized the Department of Psychiatry, and appointed Dr. Khan to be its firgt Chief psychologist, as well as a - lecturer at the Regional School of Nursing, at Cornwall. He found the experience fascinating and it was a wonderful opportunity to work under the supervision of a psychiatrist. Dr. Khan next headed towards Newfoundland.

"Pr Canatht Canada.atiaTra („partMen1 of rinoeo W nnistens des Finances He was appointed Chief Psychologist of James Patton .Memorial Hospital, Gander, Newfoundland. The hospital had a catch- ment area of 100 miles. It gave his an op- portunity to lean abut obsessive- compulshie syndrome as well as alcohol addiction therapy under an intelligent psychiatrist. 4 Dr. Khan next decided to learn about Mental Retardation and Neuro - Psychology. The opportunity came ten years 'ago when Bluewater Centre adver- tised the position and Dr. Khan became its first Chief PsychOlogist. During his stay at Bluewater Centre, Dr. Khan had an oppor- tunity to meet Dr. M. F. Conlon, the Chief of Psychiatry of Alexandra Marine and General Hospital, Goderich. He felt that he had found the right person for whom to work. He, was encouraged by Dr. Conlon to 'return to Psychiatry and he became Chief Psychologist under Dr. Conlon in 1978, at the ,Alexanda Marine- and General Hoipital. • According to Dr. Khan, this last job has been just right and although he has had at • least ten job offers from Edmonton, Win- nipeg, Newfoundland and Ontario, he has preferred to stay in Goderieh. He feels that he has everwpportunityto learn and grow under Dr. anion and there is no need to change the job. Dr. Khan believes that a goodti psychologist needs long years of appren- ticeship in order to learn the various aspects of human behaviour,: A Clinical Psychologisthag to be good in psycho- diagnosis; psycho -analysis and in psycho- therapy. The psycho -diagnosis helps in understanding the Intellecuthl and the per- sonality profile of ,the Person; psycho- analysis helps in understanding the socio- emotional and developmental factors causing the problem. These two areas help in organizing a psychotherapy program. Dr: Khan is now especially interested in psychosomatic probleins. According to him, 1 hypertension, psycho -physiologic problems (asthma, pain), phobias and depression are caused by psychosomatic problems. Dr. Khan has been working on these problems for the last twenty years. Lastly, Dr. Khan says that normally in 90% of the cases, he can tell the person the diagnosis as well as the prognosis of the problem within two clinical sessions and the patient starts improving from the third session. The most important thing for a clinician is to work hard, to explain everything . about his therapy program to the patient, to allow every question -to be asked by the patient, to give no surprises or excuses to the patient and to leave the result to God. aufWieoveiffu CANADA'S LARGEST AND BEST KNOWN RECORD STORE A Division of Wheeler Electronics Ltd. 1 .
