Falling Ice Caused Alarm In Goderich
Last Thursday
Although we aren't blessed
with a tremendous amount of hall
storms in this area, Local residents
who happened to be in Goderich
late last Thursday afternoon
found themselves in the midst of
what must surely be a record per.
formance by the weather man,
The hall came down in the
form of huge chunks of ice and
driven byvery high avinds,
did considerable damage to motor
vehicles and homes,
Rob Davies of Blyth, who works
in Goderich, had considerable
damage done to his car when the
hail left paint chips and dents in
the vehicle. Mrs. John Buchan-
an also returned home from work
with a great many paint chips
in., evidence on the family car and
Bill Patterson had the windshield
of his car .literally smashed with
one of the hail stones while he
was driving through the town.
Thomas Lawrence, who resides
near Goderich, .tells us , he has
hail stones in his freezer at home
measuring four inches in diem.
eters ' And . we can believe him;
Earl Caldwell picked up one of
the "falling missiles" 'at .four
thirty and when he returned home
at five -thirty it was still a good
sized piece of Ice. And the BIs•
set ice cream truck driver placed
sonic of the hail stones in his
vehicle for storage that were the
size of a baseball.
Yours truly happened to be -at
the cottage nine miles south of
Goderich when the storm hit and
we can vouch that it wase real
dandy. Although the hall .stones-
were
tones.were not quite as large where we
were, they were still larger than
any we had seen before. Coupled
with the driving wind they made
quite a racket on the . roof and
windows of the cottage. •
Blyth was treated to a small
hail storm later in the evening
.but nothing like the people of
Goderich were forced to contend
with — thank goodness! .

Blyth Delegation Makes Plea To County
Board For Portable Classroom
A delegation from Blyth attet,J•
ed a meeting of the Huron County
Board of Education Monday night
to request a mobile classroom for
the Blyth Public School,
The delegation, with Mrs. R. W.
Street as spokesman, told the
board that overcrowding at the
Blyth school had reached a point
where it was detrimental to the
academic and physical fitness
instruction of all pupils attending
the school,
Half of the grade one pupils
'attending the school are forced
to attend classes on the stage
area of the gymnasium and the
delegation implied that this was
not only detrimental to those in
the class but also to the remains'.
er of the students in the school
as gym time has had to be re-
duces',
The board was told that since
'the eight -room school opened in
.fanuary of 1967 enrolment has
risen from the approximate 200
at that time to the •point where
an estimated 306 pupils will be
attending in the fall of this year.
A petition carrying the names
of 37 local residents was also
presented to the board by the
delegation.,
J, W, Coulter, superintendent
of schools, said the government
pays grants of classrooms of 35
students. Chairman John Lavis
said the board would have to pay
100 per cent for a portable .class-
room because it would not be el-
: egible
l•:egibie for ..a grant,
The • :bbard did authorize Mr.
Coulter to look into the enrol-
ment situation in all elementary
schools in the county and to also
confer with the department of

Recess.
i The Starlight Unit of the Blyth
U.C.W. held their meeting on
'Tuesday evening, June 3 in the
church. parlour. The worship ser-
vice was taken by Mrs. Harold
Campbell and Mrs. Keith Webster.
Mrs. Del Philp; favoured with a
piano solo and the study on
"Stewardship" was given by Mrs.
Varve Brown. Twelve mem-
bers answered the roll call by giv-
ing
iwing their Grandmother's maiden
name,
The business part of the meet-
ing was then presided over by Mrs.
L. Scott, It was decided that the
meetings for July and August be
cancelled, This unit is to be in
charge of church duties for Jul)'
and also the September General
meeting. Cook Books are to be
sold on July 12th, Threshers Re-
union and Blyth Fall Fair. Mrs. L.
Scott then closed with prayer and
lunch was served by the commit-
tee. •
education regarding the Blyth sit-
uation.
During the meeting the local
delegation also asked if anything
had been done in regards to ac -
()Wring more play area. They
suggested to the board that they
consider buying sufficient land
for a senior play area, keeping
in mind the possibility of a fut•
ure need of a junior or senior
site. It was also suggested that
the board purchase outside play
equipment such as a jungle gym,
etc.
The Standard contacted Mrs.
Street on Tuesday and received
from her the following statement
regarding the meeting in Clinton:
"Mr. Cochrane, director of the
Huron County Board of Educe•
tion, has mentioned that the
people of Blyth built their own
school and the delegation is now
castigating the Huron County
board for the school's' shortcom•
ings, Maybe he doesn't realize
that the school was built by the
first amalgamated board with
Blyth people having little or no
say as to its location or size."
"Mr. Coulter, the public school
inspector,implied that the Blyth
school play area was sufficiently
large for the 300 students enroll-
ed there. He stated this in light
of the fact that when there were
less than 200 students in a little
larger play area, and with stag•
gored recesses, ;the older. child-
ren
hildren complained bitterly of lack_
ofactive play space .and 'parents
eoiiiplaiited of• 'younger' ''chilQtren' '
'being injured because of the
crowded play area, The surface
Weeping sewer further infringes
on the play space."

TALK ABOUT WILD WEEKENDS
Having one 18•year•old daughter around the place i5
enough to turn you white before your time, as I can verify. For
most of last week, we had three and it's quite an experience.
One of them had auburn hair, brown eyes and freckles.
-This was one way we could tell our own from the others, who
also had brown eyes. Another was that theywere neat and tidy
and 'made their bed and didn't spill things and didn't slouch arlound
in ripped, faded jeans and my oldest shirt.
Early this spring, one of our history teachers organized a
trip for his students,. during the vacation,. to Washington D.C.,
because they were studying American history, It was a success.
They saw numerous historic sites and visited a high school in that
city.
There they were warmly received. As kids will, they res•
ponded with, "Why don't you come to Canada and visit us some
time?" You know how this happens. You're away from home at a
wedding or something, meet someone you like and, vowing that you
must see more of each other, throw out one of these meaningless
invitations.
Then one day a strange car, full. of strange people, ,pulls up
at your house. A couple and four kids get out. Your wife's hair
is up in curlers. You have a two•day beard and smell like a goat
after mowing the lawn.
Yep, it's Elsie and Herb, the couple you met at the wed-
ding, except that you can't remember their names. And they were
just coming this way on a trip, and thought they'd drop in and
say hello, and they've 'been looking all over for a motel, and every-
thing's
verything's full up.
Well, that's what happened. Our history teacher got a
letter saying that 85 students and four teachers from the IWa:l:ing•
ton school were arriving, as Invited. All they needed was billets
and a schedule of sight-seeing.
He arranged. a program that would exhaust an elephant;
historical sites, band concert, dance, boat trip, canoe rides. And
billets. There was no problem there. Our own kids were pract•
scally fighting over the visitors. One girl, who comes from a family
of eight, snatched• four of. them
Kim arrived at our place with the two prettiest chicks from
that entre high school: Sheila. and Caroline. It was. 11 p.m. they'd
been on the road since five a.m., and were not only tottering, but
a little shy. But we got along fine, and shooed them off to bed.
The next three days and. nights were enough to kill any-
body
nybody over 20. The first day, they visited our school and compl,eitely
'disrupted. the schedule, which everyone enjoyed .(thoroughly. By din•
nertime, our two guests had lost all: shyness and were giggling and
talking frantically about what they were going to wear for five
different. events next day.
Suggested ,curfew was 11 p.m. They. went. out with Kim. and
all throe got in. at three.
Remember, these were city kids. They were used to con-
crete and asphalt and apartments. And herethey were in a small
town with green grass and. blue water everyhere. 'And houses on
big lots, with trees and shrubs and lawns and lilac bushes.
Saturday night was the grand 'finale, with a beach party
for the visitors and .their teenage hosts -- about 120 people. There
must have been 500 .at it, as every teeny who could .get out to the
beach gatecrashed the ,party. I know, because 'I took the girls out
to it and promptly lost them in the happy, milling mob.
Party ended, at five. Bus left at 6. In. the. a.m., that is. My
wife 'kissed the' girls, They gave us .a thoughtful present, lugged all
the way from Washington. I took them to the 'bus. Confusion and
emotion: were rampant, with tears flowing freely, and kids wildly'
',vriting down addresses,
1 got a big hug, and kiss from Sheila and Caroline, stuck
them on a. bus' and headed home for a few desperatelyueeded'winks.
Four nights and three days of people: meeting: other people.
and diking eaeh other, and learning' something, and treating each
other as individuals,
Perhaps. I. forgot to (mention. it, (but the visitors were all
Negroes.

FROM THE MINISTER'S STUDY
Throughout all of Scripture there is no truth set forth more
plainly or emphasized so much as the truth that we are saved. from
the penalty and .the power of sin wholly through the mercy of God
and entirely apart from good works on our part.
We have no claim on God for anything. No effort that/ we
put forth and no supposed goodness which we might 'have in any
way makes God liable to show any kindness on our behalf whatso-
ever. We are entirely and absolutely at His mercy. "Not by •works
of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy
He saved us—" (Titus 3:5)
Because of the atonement that has been made by Christ
mercy is extended to all—rich or poor, learned or unlearned, the
outwardly respectable or the morally degenerate --all may avail
themselves of His mercy. Nis only requirement is a true repent•
nee which. involves turning from all known sin.
'But what of good works? Surely God expects is to per.
form acts of Christian love and charity. By all means! But the
essential truth is +this: God's people do good works as result of their
receiving the gift of salvation and not as a means of earning or
achieving it, As the fruit tree does not strive to grow fruit in order
to become a fruit tree, so it is in God's plan. We do not strive and
struggle 'to become a Christian through worthy acts, but rather we
simply receive of Christ's finished work on our behalf, and then
the good deeds naturally follow as a matter of course. 'In other
words. a Christian works out what ,God has already worked in. Just
as an apple tree produces apples because it is an apple tree, so God's
people do good works 'because they have Chrtst's goodness planted
within them.
Hence, all who have a show of godliness but have experi-
enced no inner change of heart are counterfeit Christians. As welt
might a person change a dead elm into an apple tree by tyinpl, apple'..
on it, as for a person to attempt to attach to his life good. deeds
and so turn himself into a Christian. Nothing short of the regener-
ating, cleansing, empowering Christ can transform a repentant sin•
ner into a true child of God,

Area Farm Residents Support GFO
Movement In "Letters to the Editor"
Auburn, Ontario
June 16, 1969
Dear Editor:
You have discussed the Gen-
eral Farm Organization in your
paper. Now the time has come
for the farmers, their wives and
families of 21 years and over who
are actively engaged in farming
to vote.
The 3 questions in brief are:
1. do you want one farm or-
ganization.
2. do you want marketing
boards to have a vote?
3.. how do you want to obtain
membership?
We need one strong organiza•
tion strong enough to keep up
with agricultural advancement.
Two instances come to mind
where we arc behind this advance
ment.
1. Our production has sur
passed our available markets.
2. Dairy and butter spreads
are being marketed but are still
being taxed for excise tax be.
cause they are not on the list of
exempted goods.
Almost everyone else has a good organization
working for them.

ations.
lets get out and vote, On
June 24 and have a say in our
agricultural happenings. I.f we
don't turn out in large percentage,
we may not be given another
chance. So Vote on June 24.
Yours Sincerely,
Mrs. Ed. Hunking.
ATTENTION FARMERS
!t is high time that farmers get
together and form a good
strong organization. Agriculture
has two organizations working
for the interest of the farmer but
getting no where.
There are always some people
that do not want to be involved,
they are quite satisfied the way
things are ••• "Just leave us alone,
we are getting along nicely, why
should we bother about anyone
else? We should all be like the
Samaritan in the good Book. The
first two men were too busy to
bolter helping the injured man
but the third was concerned en•
ough to help. We should do unto
others as we would have them do
to us.
Our two organizations have gone
to the government with their
problems and have been advised
that if they would get one strong
organization the Government would
try and do something about it,
So on June 24th let us all get out
and vote for G.F.O. and have a
voice that will be 'heard.
An Interested Farmer.

LOSE 10 LBS. IN
10 DAYS ON
GRAPEFRUIT DIET
HOLLYWOOD, CALIF.
(Special) -- This is the revolu•
tionary grapefruit diet that ev
cryone is suddenly talking about.
,Literally thousands upon thous•
ands of copies have been passed
from hand to hand in factories,
plants ancl offices throughout the
U.S. and Canada.
Word of its success has spread
like wildfire. Because this is the
diet that really works. We have
testimonials in our files reporting
on the success of this diet. If you
follow it exactly, you should lose
10 pounds in 10 days. There will
he no weight loss in the first four
days. But you will suddenly drop
5 pounds on the 5th day. There•
after you will lose one pound a
day until the 10th day. Then you
will lose L1/2 pounds every two
days until you get down to your
proper weight. Best of all, there
will be no hunger pangs. Now re•
'stied and enlarged, this new diet
plan lets you stuff yourself with
foods that were formerly "for.
bidden," such as big steaks trim•
med with fat, roast or fried chick•
en, rich gravies, mayonnaise, lob.
sten swimming in butter, bacon
fats, sausages and scrambled eggs.
You can eat until you are full, un•
til you cannot possibly eat any
more. And still lose 10 pounds in
the first ten days plus 11/2 pounds
every two days thereafter until
your weight is down to normal,
The secret .behind this new "quick
weight loss" diet is simple. Fat
does not form fat, And the grape.
fruit juice in this new diet acts
as a catalyst (the "trigger"), to
start the fat burning process. You
stuff yourself on the permitted
t'ood listed in the diet plan, and
still lose unsightly fat and excess
body fluids, When the fat and
bloat are gone you will cease to
lose weight and your weight will
remain constant. A copy of this
new and startlingly successful
diet plan can be obtained by send.
ing $2 to GRAPEFRUIT DIET
PUBLISHERS, 1213 Premier Way
Calgary, Alberta. Moneyback
guarantee. If after trying the diet
plan you have not lost 7 pounds in
the first seven days, and 11 poun-
ds every two days thereafter,
simply return the diet plan and
your $2 will be refunded promptly
and without argument, Tear out
this message as a reminder, rbe.
Gide now to regain the trim, at.
tractive figure of your youth,
while enjoying hearty breakfasts,

REPORT FROM QUEEN'S PARK
By: Murray Gaunt, .1ttFP
(Huron Bruce)
Agriculture Minister, William
Stewart, this week defended the
rising price of beef but ordered
a fact finding study on price com-
parisons "so that the consumer
has the full story and is not mis•
led."
There are several groups, most•
ly consumer associations, that
have indicated they plan to boy-
cott
oycott beef le protest a 30 per cent
price increase in the past month.
Mr. Stewart pointed out that
beef farmers have not been re-
ceiving profitable prices for 17
years.
TENDERS WANTED
Tenders will be received by the
Blyth L.O.L. not later than June
27th, 1969, for all booth conces•
sions at t:he 12th of July celebra•
tion. Mail tenders to George
Bailie, Blyth, Ontario. Further
information available on request.
48.2
In addition, when one compares
beef paces with rising wages, he
said "the average wage earner
today can buy almost twice as
much beef with the returns from
an hour's labour than he could in
1949.
Mr, Stewart has asked the
chairman of the Ontario Food
Council and his staff to prepare
a report on beef prices immediat-
ely.
Our exports of beef cattle and
carcasses to the United States
are approximately half the vol-
ume of export movement a year
ago. Farmers are not withhold-
ing cattle as has been suggested.
During January and February,
farmers were actually marketing
almost 5,000 head more cattle
per week than they did a year
ago. Supplies have simply run
out and during the week ending
May 31st, almost 7,000 fewer cat-
tle were marketed than a year
ago.
In order to accurately assess
the situation'one must come back

operators, the starting point of
all beef production, have not been
receiving prices in the past 17
years that they have found to be
profitable. Inevitably they have
allowed production to decline,
until we are now producing less
beef feeder cattle than in previ-
ous years, and we are doing so at
a time when our population is
growing and per capita consump-
tion of beef Bias risen to an all
time high of more than 86 dbs,
The appetite of Canadians for
beef has grown particularly since
the age of the "barbecue" has
arrived.
It's interesting to note that in
1951, the last time when beef
prices reached their current lev-
els,
esels, the farmer got as high as 45
cents and the consumer was pay-
ing
aying an average of 95 cents per lh.
In 1969, beef ds selling around 38
cents per lb, but the consumer is
paying an avergae of $1,50 a lb.
The date of the General Farm
Organization vote, June 24th, is
fast approaching, Opinions differ
widely but -I certainly hope, no
natter how farmers feel a•bou•t it
they will take the opportunity to
express their opinion by voting
either one way or the other. In
this way, an accurate expression
of opinion will be obtained. How•
ever, if many farmers do not vote
at all, they wilLhave done the in.
dustry a disservice,
Donald Deacon, (Liberal, York
Centre), the Opposition Critic for
the Department of Financial and
'Commercial Affairs, said during
the estimates of that department
this week that unless the Ontario
Securities 'Commission prosecutes
more vlgorously ,promoters who
;scheme to defraud the public,
there will be, another financial
collapse as bad or worse than the
1929 crash.
Mr. Deacon suggested that jail
sentences for ..such persons are
too light and should be increased
to a minimum of 10 years.
