IN MEMORIAM
RADER- In loving memory of
my wife Alberta Rader who
passed away one year ago
July 26, 1973.
One sad and lonely year has
passed,
Since that great sorrow fell.
The shock that I received that
day,
No one can ever tell.
Your end carne sad and sudden
No time to say good-bye.
You were gone before I knew
lt,
Only God knows the reason
why,
A golden heart stopped beating
Two working hands at rest.
God broke my heart to prove
to me, he only takes the best.
I cannot forget your smiling
face; the smile that won so
many friends.
So this month comes with
deep regret; for it brings back
a day I cannot forget.
You left so sudden without a
farewell; but memories of you
will never die.
- Sadly missed by husband,
Milne. 30-p

Those people who are down
on Agriculture Minister Eugene
Whelan for his statements
that Canadian food prices are a
bargain had better do some
research before offering critic-
ism. Food prices anywhere in
the world are higher than in
North America.
Of course this is small consol-
ation for those on low incomes.
But the fact remains. It appears
from here that great many low-
er income families have the
same problem as those on high
incomes, they often have their
priorities wrong.
What should come first, food
or recreation? It seems that in
many cases recreation comes
first, or the case of beer. It
makes me tired when I see an
interview on TV with a color -
set in the background of a room
with small children around and
a woman whose husband left
her crying that she can't feed
the children properly. I believe
everything she says, but the
problem lies not with high food
costs. It lies with low income,
coupled with a lack of manage-
ment skill.
Usually this woman looks fat,
probably because of a wrong
diet, such as potato chips and
soft drinks. One can ask: "Why
shouldnt the poor have a right
to a bottle of pop?" And I can
ask "Why shouldn't it be a
cool -aid type of drink or a glass
of cold milk?"
If the income is too low to
buy nourishing food, the income
problem should be remedied.
If household management is at
fault, this should be corrected.
If priorities are wrong social
advisers should advise them.
But Whelan is right, food in
Canada is the greatest bargain
in the world. Not only that it
costs less here than anywhere
else but it also takes a lower
percentage of our income. In
most countries it takes over
fifty percent of their income for
food while here it hovers around
the 200/0 mark.
Let's be grateful and accept
the probability that for the time
being our standard of living will
not further increase. The only
way I can see to keep some of
the cost of eating down, is to
prepare more food at home.
The cost of labour in restaurants
is going up, together with the
cost of labour in packing houses
and retail stores, as well as the
cost to the farmer.
If subsidy is the answer, we
farmers don't want it. We want
a fair return for our product.
Maybe labout in other parts of
the food chain should be subsid-
ized.
Cooling Systems
No one pours gasoline in
his radiator, but a car's
cooling system can be re-
sponsible for reducing gas-
oline mileage. So can other
car parts that seemingly
have no connection with
fuel consumption.
Since the condition of the
cooling system affects en-
gine performance, abnor-
malities in cooling temper-
atures curtail gasoline mile-
age. A faulty thermostat,.
causing an engine to run
too cool, creates a condition
where more gas is needed
to maintain power. An over-
heating engine also ham-
pers efficient combustion of
fuel.
