BLY'P}t ONTARIO -- WIDDN'1 SDAY, MARCII 1, 1937 Volume 78 • No, 38 Single Copies Six Cents EASTER SEAL DONATIONS HAVE Ice Objective Ne,ared; Lions Set MANY LO(AL USES Sight On Floor Project Last weekend over one thousand letters were mailed by the Blyth Lions asking- you for a donation to the Easter Seal Campaign. Last year the Lions received rec• ord support from this area and they are hoping that the cur- rent campaign will be bigger and better than ever, Unlike most campaigns, the money received from the sale of Easter Seals will remain right here in our community. All of the donations go straight into the Blyth Lions Easter Seal fund and are used by the local organiza- tion in aid of crippled children in this immediate area, There is, of course, no need to tell you just how much use is made of this money -- the Lions have been operating here long enough for everyone to know this, But we ask you to please keep this fact in mind: the money you donate will in turn, through the welfare work of the Lions Club, be returned directly to the crip- pled children of our own 'mined - late area. Although the work the Lions do in this respect is quite naturally not publicized, But rest assured, the money is well spent, and .more and more is needed each year. Winter's Worst Blast Causes Driving D i ff 1 u 1 t 1 e s Old Man Winter unleashed his hardest blow of the winter on this area over the weekend and had the entire district literally rocising on its heals waiting for the knockout punch. The preliminaries took place last Friday with Uhc stant of high winds and heavy snow and set the stage for the main event on Saturday. The men of the snow plow bri- gade' certainly earned their keep during the fiasco as the big ma- chines were kept in constant use in an effort to maintain some semblance of highway travel. At one point on Saturday morn- ing five cars were reported to have been involved in an accident approximately • two.. miles north of Blyth on No. 4 Highway. Blyth Pollee Chief Jim Warwick was given the job of holding traffic in the village until the wrecked cars could be cleared, and the old main drag was jammed with cars and trucks, ' It was rather amus- ing and in some cases, downright disturbing to see the reaction of some drivers to the delay,in their travels. Most of them stopped 'and waited patiently, Some of theni stopped to learn of the trouble ahead but refused to wait dor clearance. And a few sped on past, paying no heed Antso. ever to the flag man. This type we can well do without on our highways and should have been reported and dealt with severely, Sunday saw a gradual clearing of tvcataler conditions and by mid- week the countryside was more or less back to normal. Talent Show Ground Mork Laid, No Date Set As Vet There was an attendance of 21 at the monthly meeting of Blyth Agricultural Society, held Tues. day evening in the Orange Hall to which the members of the Ladies Committee had been invited to attend and 8 members accepted the invitation. Ray Hanna, convenor of the proposed Ametuer Talent Night to be held in the Memorial Hall, reported much ground' work had been done, but details and the setting of the date are left with the committee in charge. Mrs. Robert Marshall and Mrs. Murray Scott were added to this commit- tee. To have or not to hove the us- ual I-Iorse Show in connection with the Fair was filed. until the May meeting. It. was thought if the Horse Show committee per- sonally contacted the I-Iorse men, it would ensure a larger entry of horses. '1'hc sponsoring of a 1967-1968 Agricultural Queen's contest was left with the entertainment com- mittee. Additiontiol commercial features are to be added to the prize list, Look for them. The delegates to the provincial convention held recently in Tor- onto, Murray Schott and Donald Young, gave brief reports of the convention. BLYTH STORES CLOSED NEXT THREE SATURDAY NIGHTS Blygbh stores were scheduled to commence opening again on Sat- urday nights this week, as was announced the first of January. However, it has been the unani• nous decision 'of the local mer. chants to remain closed until Easter Saturday, March 25th. The co-operation of the shopp- ing public has been extremely gratifying in this regard and it is sincerely stoped this co-opera- tion will be Wended until March 2r51l11. Merchants in practically every municipality in this area have been observing the early closing on their respective clos- ing nights ,and most of them will also remain closed until the end of March. BIItTIIS McCLINCHEY -- In Clinton Pub - tic hospital on Mon Feb- ruary 20, 1967, to Mr d Airs. Harold McClinchey, it 4 glft of a daughter, Glenyce Marie, a sister for Doreen and Douglas. OBSERVED 51st WEDDING ANNIVERSARY A family dinner was held on Sunday at the home of Mr, and Mrs. Nelson McClure, Seaforth, for the latter's parents, Mr. and Mrs, Austin Dexter, Blyth, who observed their 51st wedding anti- versory March lst. We've 'used up practically ev- ery adjective we can think of to describe the success of the Lions Club Artificial Ice Fund, and still the money keoj)s -pouring in - thanks to the very kind 'generos- ity of practically • everyone in the entire district, - Another fifteen hundred dol- lars has been added again this week and this brings the grand total - according to the figures recorded to date in The Standard - to, $23,561.61. This is very, very gratifying to; say the least. Some of the canvassers still have calls to make and several have received - donations Which haven't as. yet been turned in. At this point in the game, how- ever, it would be save to say the project has been an overwhelming success and that the $25,000 ob- jective will go over the top. The Lions are not resting on their laurels, being the active or- ganization they are, and have now decided to set their sights on a cement floor for the arena, This would have decided advantages and would ensure the use of the building for every month of the year. Summer time activities could include such things as rot- ler sating, large dances and such like. This would involve somewhere around another six thousand dol- lars. And the Lions still have a few tricks left up their sleeves. They intend to contact suppliers of our local places of business for donations, along with contact• ing former. , resicents• of., the village in an effort -to extract a few bucks from their pockets. Just how successful this will be remains to be seen, but it is certainly worth a try if it could mean a cement floor in our arena. Most artificial arenas do have cement floors as the ttdvan• ages are numerous. Hobby, Craft Show Should Draw Good Crowd An event that shdtild have in- terest for. everyone in the com- munity will be held in the Blyth Public School next Wednesday ev- ening, It has been billed as a Hobby Craft Show and will feat. tire crafts created by the persons who have taken part in the night class courses during the past sev- eral weeks. Both the night courses and the Hobby Craft Show are under the sponsorship of the Myth Recrea- tion Committee and it is hoped that everyone will make a special effort to be on hand for the show next Wednesday evening, . Also featured will be items of interest - from as many countries of the world as can be secured. This alone should be a good draw- ing card. POSTPONED ICE CARNIVAL WILL 1II IIELD TIIIS FRIDAY NIGHT -- WEATHER PERMITTING The weatherman has been any- thing but kind to the Blyth Lions Club this year and practically ev- ery very venture they have undertaken has been affected to some degree by inclement conditions. The ice carnival last Friday might was the latest effort to be washed out. It is hoped however that this' Friday will bring a better response and that the arena will be packed for the occasion. The complete prize list appears again in this issue. of The Stand arcl, so check it over and dress the kids in something to suit one of the many - events, And then, don't just send' them off to the arena alone, accompany them there and join in the fry, '!there is still another fifteen hundred dollars needed in order to make the artificial ice plant a sure bet, so we'd better continue to direct our efforts in that di - motion, It's going to take the sup- port of all those yet to be canvass- ed in order to do this, too. So let's go folks, join your friends in helping to bring the project to a successful conclusion. We'd like to see the twenty-five grand mark reached, next week.

Well, I'll be darned if it hasn't ,happened again. The Standard has received another letter from Norm and Mrs, Garrett and in - eluded in it was a sampling of the fine weather the local couple has enjoyed in Florida this year, and with tate usual instructions to use at our own descretion. Well, with the horrible weather conditions of the past several clays, we irnmed• Way put the air to use and you must admit the results have been astounding. We can't guarantee how long we can eke out warmer tempera- tures but we will use it sparingly and in all probabilty the good weather will be with us for a couple of days at least. The fallowing is the letter and we feel sure our readers wall re- ceive as inttch pleasure in reading it as we did in receiving it. Dear Doug and Cos - Once again I ani sendhtg you a sample of Florida "hot air," This time I'll leave it to your good judgment to use or dispose of it. According to reports, it would ap- pear that at tines you have had too much in the arena area. I-Iowever, a limited amount might be used advantageously to pro - ,mote the Artificial Ice Project. If that robin (which those two observant gentlemen are repor• ted to have seen) is still on th wing, direct it south again. Tip.;; was evidently a solo flight an entirely unauthorized. The regularly scheduled fligh'_ is due to take place shontly, jud-:- ing by the hundreds and thou_ ands that are congregating. We have enjoyed one of the most delightful Florida Winters to date, although last night tha mercury dipped down close to th freezing mark for the first time. I imagine that many of the no: therners think this annual flight south is "for the birds," but on- ce you, got sand in your shoes difficult to shake It all out: If you can get that Artificis Ice Plant operating early in th,• Autumn, I might be persuaded to sharpen my "runners" and take a speedy whirl at it in slow-mo- tion. We certainly enjoy your week- ly "Edition" and the news from the home town. Sincerely, Norm and Elva. 308 Grove Street N. St, Petersburg, Florida. February 26, 1967. PAGE 'l.w0 CANVASSERS GRIPE ME I don't know whether it's the weather, but certain species proliferate in this country with the rapidity of rabbits. One is the chairman of committees. There's one for every snow bank in the nation, Another is the guest speaker. There's one at the bottom of every barrel. And another is the canvasser, In some smaller com- munities, there are more canvassers than non -canvassers, A canvasser is a weak-willed person t►who can be talked into asking other people for money for a "Good Cause," or even, more popularly, a "Worthy Cause," The number of Worthy Causes in this is only exceeded by the number of backboneless birds of country both sexes \iho allow themselves to be put on the list of eanvassers. And I know whereof I speak. In my day I have canvassed for the blind, the retarded, the resort owners, the Red Cross, the Salvation Army and eleventeen other Worthy Causes, About the only thing I haven't done is sell cookies for the Girl Guides, And I've hated every minute of it. The trouble is that the average Canadian ,citizen heartily detests the handing over of cash for an intangible. At heart lie's a generous soul.` He knows the Red Cross does good work that something should be done for the blind and that we need a school for retarded children. But he can't eat them, smoke them, drink them, or even at- tach them to his car. Therefore, the fellow wlto will fling down a ten in the liquor store as though he grew the lettuce, will dourly, head shaking, peel off a couple of thin one -spots for the Sally Ann, The housewife, «oho buys her weeds by the carton, will spend 20 min- utes looking for two quarters for the Cancer Society, And I know just how they feel. I'm the same, Some day, somebody is going to rap at my door for a Bad Cause: a free crock a clay for alcoholics; a clinic for potenttial pool players; a home for unwed fathers. And I'm going to hand over $20 cash without quivering an eyelid-. This preamble, as you have probably gathered, is because I got suckered once again into canvassing for a Good Cause, This time, it's a community swimming pool. A year-round pool, already. There's a good-sized lake within the town limits. We live on, the store of the biggest fresh -water bay in the world, Six miles away is one of the Great Lakes, with utiles of safe, sand beaches, But the kids have to be able to swim in the winter. Next summer, I'll probably be canvassing for a summer ski hill, with artificial snow, For the kids, Maybe it was the sheer audacity of this campaign that grabbed rue. This is no picking up $800 for the blind, or $500 for the crippled children, They want over a quarter of a million, The resultant campaign is a combination of The Night of the Long Knives and the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre. What it amounts to is $30 for every man, woman and child in town. Nonrealistic, you say? Nonsense, All it takes is enough canvassers, and they will cowe the citizenry into coughing up. My first night out was a typical. Six calls to make. First place, nobody home. Second place, no such address. Third place, a response, A chap on shift work tottered down, in his pyjamas and snarled the party I was seeking lived next door. Called on him. "Wouldn't give you a plugged nickel," he said, "but my wife said she'd give two bucks" At the fifth place, I rang and rang. N) answer, I looked in the window. The householder was lying on the chesterfield. There was an empty glass beside him, I threw snow at the window, No response. I kicked the door four times, I left. But I struck it rich at the last place, Caught both husband and wife at home, A very modest home, Gave my sales pitch with fervor, enthusiasm and sincerity, They admitted they had five kids, agreed they would use the pool, and looking a bit troubled, but game, pledged $50 a year, for three years. Returned, triumphant, to make my report. "Oh, yes, good old Jimmy," chortled an old-timer on canvassing. "He pledges for everything, from church to paying his taxes, Has been on welfare for two years. Can't hold a job more than a week," IT'S GOOD BUSINESS TO USE THE CLASSIFIED PAGES OF THE STANDARD Whether Shopping For a Bargain or Looking For a Buyer T1r� BLYTR STANDARD WEDNEISDAY, MAI 1, .1967 Report From Queen's Park (13y Murray Gaunt, MPP, Huron•Bruce) The estimates of the Depart- ment of Agriculture were before the Legislature this week. It was stated in the Throne Speech that the government was. under- taking a program of capital grants for farmers, Agriculture Minister William Stewart spelled out the plan when he introduced his es- timates, The grants will apply to a wide range of farm buildings, and will meet one-third of the cost up to $1,000 of new or renovated build- ings, drainage, grading, packing and storage buildings, green- houses, silos, milk houses and li- quid manure storage tanks, To be eligible for capital grants a farmer must own the land to be used for the project and must have a gross annual income of $3,000 from his farm. The prov- ince is allocating $10,000,000 to the now program this year. The program is the first stage of a twelve-year $129,000,000 plan to encourage effective capital planning by farmers. The Agriculture budget also contains provision for 50% grants up to $500 per farmer toward the cost of drilling or digging wells, This is part of the ARDA pro - grain, In my lead-off speech on Ag. riculture, I pointed out that long term government policies are needed to grapple with the diffi- cult problem of farm income. It is interesting to note that pricesof farm products rose only 6,6% be- tween 1949 and 1965, but retail food prices climbed 35,9% in the sante period. The farmer's share of every dollar spent on food at the retail level has dropped to 36c from 58c in 1949. In dealing with the Milk Mark• eting Board policy of transferable milk quotas, in other words, the sale of quotas by one producer to , another, I sated that this was_ fundameat ally wrong, lit could A man Who i ambles as a hobby and always wins has become what you could describe as a TV and Radio personality, having appear- ed with Pierre Benton, Betty Ken- nedy, on C1\V's W 5, on the CBC National News, on radio station CKEY, on CKCO's Scan and File 13 and numerous other programs. lle is Bruce Irwin, His new occu• potion is author, and his first book, entitled "The Midas Touch," reveals his perfect system for gambling at legal casinos. Regular readers of this column will recall that 1 travelled to Europe with. Mr. Irwin on a tour of casinos and. watched !him win consistently, I have read the book, with the exception of the one chapter 1 wrote, and found his experiences exciting, fascinating and enchant- ing, Ilere is a story which .Ilol- lyytvood screen writers could turn into a motion picture full of sus- pense. It's a fast-moving book and is recommended if you have pan in- terest in exciting non=fiction - difficult to find these days. The second edition is more ex- pensive, but worth every cent if you are planning a trip to Las Ve- gas, or to other pants of the world where gambling is legal, This edition reveals the system which would allow you to win far more money than die price of the book, If you want to get rich quick, don't call me. But, if you want more information concerning my trip, the hook, or Bruce lrwin, write to me in care of CKCO• TV, Kitchener. lead to control of the milk indust- ry by large operators including chain stores, simply because these people have the money to buy up these quotas, In California the quota system has got out of hand, to the extent that $1000 per can is not an unreasonable amount to pay. Every step possible should be taken to prevent this happen• ing in this province. This could be prevented by the Milk Market- ing Board taking charge of all quotas in the province and these would be allocated at their disere• tion, BELGRAVE COMMUNITY CENTRE ANNUAL MEETING CHOOSES COMMITTEES; REPORTS EXCELLENT FINANCIAL POSITION Norman Coultes is the newly elected chairman for the Belgrave Community Centre with Hugh Blair as vice-chairman.

These are the years when you can build n career and a financially secure future, But to do it, you have to look ahead. Apprenticeship Training—one way to a good job with a secure future Apprenticeship Training istailor-made foryoun people who look ahead. This program, jointly sponsored by the Federal and Provincial Gov- ernments, overnments, opens doors for look -ahead young people in over a hundred well-paid, highly - trades, It oilers classroom instruction and on-the-job training plus rising wage levels as apprentices progress to the status of fully- fledged journeymen, Can anyone qualify for Apprenticeship? Not quite. You must be 16 or older and have at least a Grade 10 education, With additional edu- cation, such as a high school diploma, you could have a shorter apprenticeship and enjoy higher earnings sooner, What can apprenticeship do for your future career? When you complete your training, you're well equipped to meet the future, Apprenticeship training can prepare you for a supervisory posi- tion or even a business of your own, And when you're thirty-five, you can look back with satisfaction.
