Hockey Game Should Draw Good Crowd Toll Horses Off To Flyers Win
With Many Former Stars In Action
Another big game has been
planned for the Blyth arena this
Friday night and besides present-
ing a bit of fun and frivolity,
will probably he the last chance
that local fans will have to see
hockey action here until next fall.
The Blyth Firemen have again
been challenged to ,a duel, and
what a team they will be meet-
ing, We all recall the great team
Londeshoro had something like
twenty years ago, and many of
these chaps will don the blades
nn Friday night in an attempt to
end the firemen's undefeated
record,
Playing for Londeshoro will be
such former stars as Jack Lee,
Ben Riley, Glen Carter, Hugh
,Miller, Allan Shaddick and Char-
lie Bromley, They will he aug-
mented by several of the young-
er bloods like Ron, Gary and
John Jewitt, Doug Riley, Tom
Mize'', Buster Peekitt, John Rad-
ford, Keith Allen and Gordon
Shobhrook. 1t. is also reported
that Jack Snell is considering
scraping oft' the rust and hunting
tip the liniment in order to make
an appearance.
You, of course, know the fire-
men's lineup from a past issue
of the Standard, They will prob-
ably have a few more tricks up
their sleeves.
Come out and offer your sup-
port and help the fellows add a
few bucks to the artificial ice

County Council Approves $500,
Road Improvement Budget
Huron County council on Mon-
day approved a $1,930,000 1968
roads budget, including $500,000
for road development.
A tax rate of 10 mills was set
to raise $692,639, slightly more
than the $689,000 it will cost the
county. Remainder will be paid
by government subsidy.
The 10 mill rate is ,7 mills high-
er than last year's 9.3 mill rate.
James Hayter, chairman of the,
roads committee, said in his re-
port to council, "We are faced
with rising costs of labor and Xna-
terial,, coupled with a public de-
sire for better roads and higher
maintenance standards.
Mr, Hayter said this was the
first lax•rate increase since 1966.
Of the total budget, $680,000 is
earmarked for road reconstruc-
tion, $150,000 for bridge and cul•
vert construction and $550,000
for maintenance on roads and
bridges.
Largest bridge slated i'or con-
struction is a 100 -foot, $80,000
span on the StanleyGoderich
townships boundary.
Nearly 26 miles of road con-
struction is slated, including Road
31 from Hillsgreen south 212 ml•.
les, $80,000; Road 27 from Luck -
now sough 41/: miles, $50,000;
Road 30 from Fordwich south 41/2
miles, $160,000; and Road 12 from
Wroxeter south 21/4 miles, $100,-
000.
100,000.
County engineer J. W. Britnell
said the Ontario department of
highways plans to take over de-
velopment this year of Road 899
(Huron County Road 3) from
Brucefield to Varna at an estimat-
ed cost of $469,000. Total cost will
be borne by the department.
In other business, council ap-
proved- • a 1968 hoard. of health'
budget of $187,260, an increase
of $10,000 over last year, but
turned down a proposal to extend
program development.
Huron County's public library
hoard budget was set at $124,000,
an increase of $22,000, and the
1968 proposed budget for Huron -
view county home was set al
$672,500. -
Increase in the library hoard
budget was the result of hiring
a qualified librarian and elimina-
tion of a provincial incentive
grant, available only in the ini-
tial year of library board opera-
tions.
County's share of the 1hr on -
view budget is $75,300, Wages ac-
count for nearly $470,000 of the
total budget,
The home has 257 residents, 20
admitted since the beginning of
the year.

Stop roaring with deep indignation.
Pretty rotten doggerel, but I hope 1 speak for the rest 01

With one more tax hike of any kind, the hall of the 13as-

of Sunday school outings. The gutters will run with blood, and
heads will roll.
I've never seen a gutter running with blood, but t don't
think it would bother me much. Not this. month, at any rate, And
how would the head of the Finance Minister look, stuck on tlw
end of a pike? It certainly wouldn't do much for his image in the
Liberal leadership. race.
Remember what happened to the British when they went
too far with taxation! It was a nice cup of tea, with Boston harbor
as the teapot. Shortly' afterwards, they bad lost half of North
America.
Eighteenth•century France had absentee landlords. We have
absentee M.P.'s. But the real cause of the French revolution was
oppressive taxes. The absentee landlords lost their heads. Some
of our absentee M.P.'s may lose their seats. And if you wantto he
vulgar, there's not .much difference, come to think of it.
Same story in Russia, Inflation and taxation. Ivan was
making four kopecks a day. It cost him three to live, one for taxes.
The Czar jacked up the tax on vodka by one kopeck and something;
had to give. It wasn't Ivan,

FROM THE MINISTER'S STUDY
Cl{V OF DESOLATION
Mark 15: 34
Close to the Cross of Jesus stood His mother and with her
were two other women and His disciple John. They simply stood
and watched, waiting with flim in love and sorrow.
After Jesus had spoken three times • each time to give some
help or comfort to !hose around Him - a long silence followed, ac•
cenluated by a strange darkness which came over all the land. Then
from the lips of Jesus broke forth the cry, "My God, my God, why
hast thou forsaken me?"
We will never be able to understand the depths of mystery'
which this cry implied. God made flim to be sin for us, who knew
no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him,
The horror and the darkness which this involved are beyond our
understanding,
Olive Wyon, in his meditations on the Passion of our Lord
("Consider flim") quotes here the words of George Macdonald
("Unspoken Sermons"): "It was a cry in desolation, but it. came out
of faith. 11 was blackness of darkness, And yet Ile would hold
fast .. . My God." This was a real cry of desolation, uttered out of
a (seep and terrible experience - the experience of being identified
with sinners! Ile telt utterly alone, in a waterless desert, in a
valley of deep darkness • and yet he held on in faith and cried out
My God!
Let us remember that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Saviour
promised to the fathers in the Uld 'Testament and that Ile bore for
us the wrath of God under which we should have perished ever-
lastingly. Let us remember that Ile was innocently condemned to
death that we might be acquitted at the judgment seat of God and
that Ile humbled Himself on the Cross to hell's deep agony, which
wrung from Him the cry, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken
me? that God might NEVER forsake Us!

THE INTERNATIONAL SCENE ..
THE GOLD RUSH
by
Raymond Canon
"What's all this 1 read in the
papers these days about a gold
crisis?" I don't know how many
times I have heard this statement
these past few weeks, with the
result that. I have a speech al-
most memorized to explain the
reasons behind all the panic buy-
ing of gold and the threatened
devaluation of various currencies,
foremost among which is the Am-
erican dollar.
To understand what is going on,
we have to return to the days
when you were able to go into
a bank, put down a sum of money,
and buy gold at a fixed price.
Over the years while the value
of gold remained stable, the cur-
rencies used to buy gold dimin-
ished in value, so that, rathtr
than sell gold at a loss, govern-
ments and banks put a damper
on sales, However, so acceptable
was this metal to almost every
nation of the world that it began
to be used more and more as a
means of making international
payments. The price of gold was
pegged at 35 U.S, dollars an
ounce, so that if a country want-
ed to pay another country for
1
1
some goods or services, the pay-
ment would often be effected in
gold rather than in a paper cur-
rency. At the same time, some
currencies became more accept-
able as a means of payment, and
gradually there emerged three
main methods of paying interna-
tional accounts: gold, British
pounds and American dollars,
However, in the period follow-
ing the last world war, the value
of the British pound dropped from
almost five dollars in our money
to about two dollars and forth
cents, the latest devaluation being
only a short while ago. The con-
fidence of the world bankers was
shaken by this devaluation, and
this together with the inability of
Gt. Britain to put their financial
house in order, brought about a
situation whereby the American
dollar and gold became the only
important means of transaction.
Unfortunately, however, the Am-
ericans themselves have been un-
dergoing financial problems of
their own. 'Phe cost of the war
in Vietnam, as well as an unfav-
ourable balance of trade the past
few years put the dollar in some-
what the same position as the
British pound.

in clanger of being devaluated?
You would invest all you could
in gold; of course, since there is
no indication that it, too, would
sink in price. In fact, there were
many indications that it might
officially increase in price.
Now, it is only logical that the
Europeans, with - their long hist-
ory of devalued currencies, should
be the first to buy gold as a
hedge against a possible deflation
of their currency or as an invest-
ment against a possible rise in
the price of gold, The stories of
the gold hidden away by the
French are legendary. Anyway,
rumours started of an impending
devaluation of the American dol•
lar, or an increase in the price
of gold, which is tanamount to the
same thing. A wave of panic
buying of gold started, which
drove up the price on the free
market to over $44 an ounce, an
increase of 25 per cent. -
It was then that the govern-
ments of the leading banking
countries stepped in and set Iwo
prices for gold. The price of
gold on the free market woud
find its own level, subject to the
laws of supply and demand,
while the price of gold used for
international payments would re-
main the same, This effectively
avoided the devaluation of the
dollar, but the measure is only
temporary, designed to give the
Americans some breathing space
until they can set their financial
house in order.
The French, strange as it niay
seem, were not partners in these
transactions, an absence which
led many people to see thr, fine
hand of De Gaulle attempting to
embarrass once more the English.
speaking world. While such ac-
cusations are often difficult to
prove or disprove, I will say that
our French friend has done or
said nothing to improve the sit-
uation; although he was in a pos.
ition to do so.
Finally, how did the whole sit-
uation affect us? The answer is,
"Relatively --little!" As long as
we do not panic into buying gold,
and as long as the American dol-
lar remains firm, we are all right.
However, we could' be affected
if the Americans are unable to
solve their financial ,problems,
tend if our govv.rnment cannot
present more or less of a balanc-
ed budged. Although the crisis
has passed for the lime being,
we must continue to practice a
certain measure of austerity at
hone, all the while hoping that
the Americans do the same.
1n short, we can back our gov-
ernment to. the hilt in any accept-
able measures they may wish to
take against inflation, and . keep
our fingers crossed that the Am-
ericans do the same.

GAUNT REPORTS FROM QUEEN'S PARK
Progress in education is being
slowed by the false confidence
of parents and teachers in marks,
grades and textbooks according
to the Deputy Minister of Educa•
lion, Dr. J. A. McCarthy.
"Marks have become carrots
which stu(lenls follow throughout
their school careers,' he told a
meeting of the Ontario Princi-
pals Association this week.
Mr. McCarthy said both letters
and marks are meaningless. "Can
anyone really say that a child's
talent in English is worth 68 per
cent?" he asked.
The Deputy Minister said eval-
uation is still essential for a
child's improvement. However,
the child's progress should be
measured in terms of his poten-
tial and past record, not against
the performance of another stud.
ent not similarly endowed.
Food manufacturers were warn-
ed against calling any product a
milk substitute or replacement
unless it is nutritionally the equiv.
alent of milk.
The federal food and drug di.
rectorate said it plans to draw tap
regulations on such products.
The Minister for Agriculture
and food for Ontario, William
A. Stewart, said previously that
extensive research was being eon -
ducted to determine the nutrition-
al value of such substitutes be-
cause it appeared that the food
value of most if not all substi•
lutes was Considerably less than
milk, The composition of these
foods varies considerably and

Here's a special offer just for you
The Government of Canada has created a special
new high -yielding security for the advance refunding
of 1959 Canada Savings Bonds, These Special
Replacement Bonds will be dated May 1, 1968, and
will mature in 10 years 5 months on October 1, 1978.
They will be available only in exchange for an equal
amount of 1959, Canada Savings Bonds, and not for
cash. Their average annual yield to maturity will be
6.88%. They will retain all the standard features
which have made Canada Savings Bonds the most
popular' investment in Canada's history. This in-
cludes the right to cash them any time at any bank
for full face value plus earned interest.
In addition, Special Replacement Bonds offer the
opportunity to double your money. if you choose
not to cash your regular interest coupons during the
life of the bond, 3 Compound Interest Certificates
then become payable for a total of $280.00 extra
(on each $1,000,00 bond). This amount plus your
regular interest coupons doubles your money. You can
take advantage of this compound interest feature in
various ways,
And that's not all. There will be two Prepayment
Coupons, cashable May 1, 1968, attached to each
Special Replacement Bond. They represent the 6
months' interest already earned by your old bond and
the prepayment of the 3% non-taxable premium
originally due November 1, 1968. On a $1,000,00
bond, these two Prepayment Coupons will be worth
a total of $55.00.

ONTARIO HOSPITAL SERVICES COMMISSION
NEW HOSPiTAL INSURANCE PREMIU,1S
HOSPITALS AND HOSPITAL SERVICES ARE BETTER THAN EVER,
BUT THEIR COSTS ARE RISING STEADILY...AND SO ARE OURS.
BETTER CARE -.BETTER PROTECTION
Modern scientific hospital care is putting thousands
of patients on the road to health every day. This care
is the best that has ever been available—but it is
becoming more and more costly to provide, Steadily
rising hospital costs have, for many years, affected all
hospitals across Canada and in other countries.
Nevertheless, the quality of hospital care cannot be
WHY COSTS C
PRICES ARE UP
Hospitals, like everyone else, are paying more for salaries,
wages and fringe benefits, and more for food, drags,
equipment, supplies and services.
SERVICE IS BETTER
Medical science now provides many new, costly types of
treatment which require admission to hospital. While
these procedures prolong life and improve health,they
also increase the use of hospitals and require more skilled
staff, more facilities, more drugs and other expensive
supplies.
sacrificed—facilities and service must constantly attain
increasingly higher standards, In 1959, however,
Ontario Hospital Insurance ended the worry of hos-
pital expense for patients who need such care. Over
7 million Ontario residents, 99 % of the people, have
peace of mind in knowing that their hospital bills are
'prepaid' through their Government -insurance plant
ONTINUE TO RISE
HOSPITALS ARE USED MORE
Greater use is also being made of hospitals because there
is no longer a financial barrier to necessary care, more
hospital beds are available and there are increasing num-
bers of elderly citizens, many of whom require prolonged
treatment in hospital. In 1947, Ontario had only 17,473
active treatment, chronic and convalescent hospital beds;
in 1958 there were 31,000, Today there are over 46,800
such beds available to insured persons. More beds mean
more patients, more cost.,.
PAY ENVELOPES TAKE MOST
About 75¢ out of every $1.00 in insured hospital services
represents salaries, wages and fringe benefits for hospital
employees. Hospital staffs now enjoy employment condi-
tions which are comparable in rates and hours of work
NEW PRE
There has been no change in Ontario Hospital Insurance
premiums since 1964, and this has been made possible
through increased Provincial Government contributions
from general revenues to maintain the premium rates
established at that time. In the years 19b5, 1966, and 1967,
the Provincial Government contributed $176,5 million in
support of the plan, plus some $334 million for mental and
tuberculosis care, and for special and capital hospital
grants, to a total of $510,5 million,
and fringe benefits to other similar occupations in the
community. This means that hospitals, today. have in're
and better paid employees to provide their essential round-
the-clock service for the sick and injured.
MIUM RATES
The Government has now found it necessary, however, to
introduce new premiums to help meet the sharp increase
in the cost of the Ontario Hospital Insurance Plan. The
Provincial Government will continue to contribute sub-
stantially to the cost of hospital care, and the Federal
Government's contribution will also keep pace with the
rising plan costs.
'The new premiums effective with regular advance pay-
ments for the benefit month of July, 1968, are;
BASIC STANDARD WARD INSURANCE
Single (no eligible dependants) $ 5.50 a month
Family (one or more eligible dependants) - - - $11,00 a month
The above new rates will be payable on all regular group and pay -direct billings
due in April, 1968, to cover the benefit months) beginning with July, 1968,
NEW BENEFITS
Consistent with its policy through the years of adding
wherever possible to the benefits of Ontario Hospital
OUT-PATIENT H
Coverage for hospital out-patient services prescribed by a
physician when associated with necessary medical treat-
ment—but not drugs taken home, or diagnostic x-ray
examinations or laboratory tests which are listed as bene-
fits of the Ontario Medical Services Insurance Plan
(OMSIP). Such x-rays and laboratory tests, however, will
continue to be covered under present "emergency" benefits
ESSENTIAL AMBULANCE SERVICE
Insurance, the following new benefits will be available to
insured persons on and after July 1,196&
OSPITAL SERVICES
and in follow-up treatment of fractures.
These added benefits will include the use of a substantial
list of care facilities at hospitals which are necessary to
modern medical care and will close the gap between
present insured services and those services normally
covered by OMSIP.
Also, benefits will be provided for ambulance service
which is essential for the transportation of a patient. The
patient will be required to pay a small portion of the cost
to the ambulance operator at the time the service is
provided. Details of the benefit will be announced at a
later date.
