Spending
fever ° °
hits Rae
Goforth meeting in Wingham
Girl -child discrimination was the
topica of the Goforth Auxiliary of
St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church
in Wingham last Tuesday evening,
March 21.
Audrey McKague welcomed
those present and introduced the
topic of the night by ,sharing facts
about the neglectful and abusive
treatment of girl children in many
countries of the world, even Cana-
da.
Children's hymns were used to
set the mood for the topic, includ-
ing many familiar favorites, accom-
panied by Betty Richardson. Mari-
lyn Baird led the group in a current
QUEEN'S PARK —*Ontario Liber-
al Leader Lyn McLeod said today
that Bob Rae is engaged in a fit of
pre-election wending fever, trying
'to bribe the taxpayers with their
own4noney.
"Between Christmas and the first
day of spring the NDP government
has spent at least $708,223,340, in-
cluding millions on glossy ads
which use a likeness of the NDP's
party logo and feature pictures of
NDP cabinet ministers," McLeod
said.
In the 13 weeks since Christmas,
Bob Rae and 'his ministers have
spent at a rate of over $54 million a
week.
"This three-month fit of • pre-
election spending fever is a last -
'ditch attempt to make up for four
and a half years of mismanage-
ment," McLeod said.
The Liberal leader said that the
NDP continues to fail to understand
the priorities of Ontarians.
"The people of this province
want a government that will' man-
age their money carefully," McLe-
od said. "Bob Rae and the NDP are
throwing the taxpayers' money into
the wind, hoping votes will come
back."
Noting that March 20 is the tradi-
tioral day for recalling the Legisla-
ture, McLeod said it was time for
Rae to recall the Legislature and
start 'working, or call an election
and give the people a chance to
choose a government that will.

Mrs. •Dianne•Taylor and Mrs. Mar-
ilyn King. Executive members are
Christine Hawkins, president; Me-
ghann Taylor, vice president; Sa-

uring ingredients and looked at
tools and utensils used for baking.
They matched definitions to the
names of baked goods and enjoyed
a pan of brownies they baked.
At the second meeting, members
read some historical notes on bak-
ing. They learned the method for
mixing ingredients of muffins and
tasted the peanut butter and jelly
muffins they baked and compared
the taste, texture, appearance and
tenderness of different muffins —
homemade, homemade low fat,
bakery, and muffins made from a
mix. The winner was the home-
made low-fat muffin.
At meeting three, members dis-
cussed methods of mixing cakes
and made, frosted and filled a but-
ter cake.

challenge for inexperienced bak-
ers. They learned different ways of
decorating a pie crust and created
an apple pie.

judge, the cookies and muffins the
members bring. At the final meet-
ing, a guest will demonstrate mak-

was two piano solos by Mary
Vaudry, "Any Dream Will Do"
from the musical "Joseph and His
Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat"
and the well-known hymn, "Man of
Sorrows".
Audrey McKague, Helen
McKague and Joyce Bain presented
some of the causes of discrimina-
tion against girl children, including
culture, tradition, sexuality, relig-
ion, laws and poverty. The disturb-
ing facts of selective abortion and,
female genital mutilation were de-
scribed as a means of limiting and
controling.
Isobel Arbuckle read from Mark
10: 13-j6, Mrs. McKague dis-
cussed the passage, drawing out its
implications for the treatment of
children. The group enjoyed the
World Vision videotape "Girl
Child", narrated by Jan Tennant,
showing the difficulties experi-
enced by girls in Africa and Asia
and how they can be alleviated by
education. World Vision has a plan
to raise the standard of 4I,iving in
such countries through the Girl
Child Partnership program.
During the Missionary Moment,
a letter from David Barrie in Mala-
wi was read. He reported that the
drilling for water . is progressing
well and that the country is expect-
ing a new freedom under its recent-
ly -elected president.
