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.

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,

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.
