Steer This Way BY LARRY SNIDER If the brake pedal shudders when you brake hard, a front brake drum may be out of round. It can be reground or replaced. To test your own shock ab- sorbers -driving at 10 miles per hour on a smooth surface (an empty parking lot is perfect) apply brakes repeatedly. If car rocks back and forth, you need nevi shocks. * Using more gas? Perhaps the automatic choke adjustment is too rich for warm weather, allowing raw fuel to be wash- ed into crankcase. Not only wastes gas, it thins out engine oil. Car wax will smear on win- dows. Remove it with am- monia and water, or a cleaner fluid containing ammonia. Noises, such as humming and whining, are clues to the beginning of most abnormal transmission conditions ... or kids in the back seat. * If the noises are getting to you, come in to Larry Sniders. We'II sell you a car that runs quietly, As for the kids, how about a station wagon - or a rumble seat?

ARC hires new administrator The Adult Rehabilitation Centre in Dashwood has a new administrator to replace Don Rawlings who resigned as man- ager of the workshop at the beginning of the summer. Bob Fry, 24, began duties last Tuesday as administrator - manager of the workshop. Prior to his appointment Fry was employed as manager of the ARC workshop in Barrie. He is a graduate of Trent University with a BA in Psych- ology. After graduating he worked for four months at a boys club near Lindsay as prog- ram director before going to Barrie. Fry said that he hadn't been at the ARC long enough to know what changes would have to be made. He said that work in a rural area workshop was much different than in a large city, and that changes would be made only as they are required. Fry said that his new position was a challenge and he felt that it was a step up from his position in Barrie because he would be more or less on his own as far as operations at the ARC were concerned. "The field is one in which things are rapidly changing, " he said, "and it is just within the 'last few years that society has begun to realize the defin- ite contribution these people can make." He said that he really learns as much from rhe Trainees as they learn from him, Although there is at present no standard in Canada for face protectors for motor -cyclists, Consumer's Association of Can- ada recommends the use of a full face coverage helmet for protection of eyes, teeth, nose and as a further safeguard against brain injury. A face shield also protects the wearer from small flying objects which might strike the face and prec- ipitate an accident. Public relations and co-oper- ation will be of prime import- ance Fry said, because without public support the workshop cannot exist. The public crust realize that the ARC is not a "day care centre" but a work- shop where handicapped adults can work and enjoy an all round program, he said. "The work done is just one important tool in the rehabilitation program." The Garden of !lope project at the ARC has progressed well over the summer and will be continued next year. The back lot has been levelled and clear- ed and trees will be planned. Co-ordinator of the project, Olga Zeulitis, will he leaving next week but said that she hopes community support for the project will continue. The official Opening of the ARC workshop willbe held October 20 at 3 p.m. Included in the opening will be a ribbon cutting ceremony and tours of rhe i'acilitte.s. nt rrtationa Scene so it was a fatigue brought on by the constant treatment, over a period of 40 years, of all these doctors and dentists. In the play that I have ment- ioned, two of the funniest scenes contain cunsultations and conferences of the doctors. We find them funny because it is just inconceivable to us that such a thing could happen. The sad fact is that these two scenes are as realistic as any presented on the twentieth century stage. I think that most docters would agree that there are still a few charlatans about preying on the fears and hopes of gull- ible people. They are, of course, a distinct minority but think that it must have been like when such charlatanism was the rule and not the except- ion. xcerr•ion. It seems safe to say than people went on living not because of doctors but in spite of them, uris ans jobs �� :p �� ;t i�� tr � , . ty , This is what Ontario is doing to keepthe tourists coming. Tourism is good for Ontario. Tourists take nothing away except happy memories, but they leave plenty of money behind them. That's why your Ontario government seeks to attract visitors to our province, and asks for your help in making them feel welcome. Already, tourism is Ontario's 3rd largest industry. It provides jobs for over 154,000 people, quite possibly including you and your neighbours. What's more, by 1978 Ontario expects to play host to enough visitors to create 85,000 additional jobs. A worthwhile goal, certainly. But how can all this be accomplished? Here are some of the things that your Ontario government is doing: We're making loans for the development of tourist facilities —through the Ontario Business Incentives Program, Ontario Development Corporation, Eastern Ontario Development Corporation, and Northern Ontario Develop- ment Corporation. Ontario now has Tourism specialists in London (Eng.), Los Angeles, Frankfurt, and Tokyo. We are working with airlines, railroads and bus companies to promote the pleasures of Ontario. We are striving to bring conventions to smaller as well as larger communities, and to resort areas, especially during off seasons. We are supporting your local Travel Associ- ations, with ample money to promote local tourism. We are promoting the attractions of our Province by advertising throughout Ontario and nearby U.S. states. You can help us welcome visitors by greeting them in a friendly manner, and showing them genuine hospitality. Encourage visitors to come back, and to bring their friends. If we all do our share, we can increase the number of tourists who come here, and that's not only good for the tourists—it's good for Canada, good for Ontario, and good for you.
