These are just a few of the kind words that we overheard during the recent snow storm which bit midwestern and southwestern Ontario, Prior to the storm 1 also heard remarks like, "Ban the darn things" or "They are just a stat. us symbol," and "A few people are making money at our ex- pense," I think you will agree these are a far cry from the re• marks made during the storm, We don't intend to take sides because we are involved in en• forcing the laws which the people have made. It is not a police of- ficer's right to decide whether a law Is good or bad, It Is his job to protect the lives and pro• pert)/ of the public, to enforce the latus made by the people and to apprehend the alleged offend- ers and have them summonsed to Court, where the Courts will de- cide, only after all the evidence is heard, if the alleged offender is guilty or not. We of the Ontario Provincial Police would like to take this "Serving Blyth and Community Since 1885" I31.YT11, ONTARIO - WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1971 opportunity to thank all the per- sons who so ably assisted us dur- ing the recent storm. On num• crous occasions, without the help of snowrnobllers, what could have been 'a tragedy turned out to be a case of hardship only, i have been told, and I was con- vinced before this emergency, that a police force is only as good as the co-operation it receives from the public. The co-operation we received and were offered is just another case to back up this belief. Could be that when everything is back to normal we will hear criticism of something we failed to do or the manner in which it was handled, but this letter was originally written with a pencil which had an eraser on the end of it, because people do make mis- takes, Granted, the less mistakes made the better, but if we learn by our mistakes, progress is be- ing made.

WINTER OF MEMORY ALL TIIE COLDER There's nothing like a solid stretch of really cold weather to remind you that Nature still packs a mighty wallop, despite all man's ingenuity in trying to keep his chin covered. We've had a dandy around here — day after day of below -zero emperatures. Even though they have been bright, the sun had about as much effect on the atmosphere as a fried egg, sunny-side up, Everyone enjoys the first couple of days of such a spell. We all feel like hardy pioneers when we stomp in out of the cold, eyes and noses running, and exchange such inanities as, "That's a real snapper" and cold 'nuff for ya?" But after a week or so, it begins to get to you. You begin to remember those stories about people who go mad in the rainy season, or when the sirocco is blowing. It doesn't affect the kids. They love it, bundled to the nose and full of warm, red blood. Most of the elderly hate it, and visibly shrink. It doesn't bother the outdoor enthusiasts, because they keep warm doing something. They can't lick it, so they join it. It's the ordinary, simple, everyday householder like me who begins to feel the pinch, and develops a deep gloom. When you turn the key In the car and it just groans like a wounded buffalo, before expiring. When you look up at the ever -thickening ice on the roof and remember you've just had your living -room redecorated, and know it's going to cost $30 to have it chopped off. And finally whlen your downstairs facilities don't work, and you realize with horror that even in this day of oil furnaces, inside pipes can freeze, And the oilman cometh. And cometh and cometh, This is the time when you should stop and realize how lucky you are, instead of bending everybody's ear with your petty woes. You should remember how it used to be. Like most Canadians, I was brought up on cold winters. Earliest recollections are of midwinter Sunday mornings. My mother would take my kid brother and me into bed with her where we'd heap ourselves to the breakfast -in -bed she always got Sunday morn- ings, and listen with fear and fascination to her tales of winter on Calumet Island, in the Ottawa River. The best was about the time Lady, the dainty little mare, went through the ice and the dreadful time they spent trying to rescue her. I think she died. There was my Dad, He hated winter and made no bones .bout it. It was Depression times, and the coal bill was an albatross around his neck. He was a mild, gentle man, never known to say anything stronger than "shoot". But inside him was some of the wild despair of his Irish forefathers, When he'd go down to fire up the furnace, I'd get my ear up against the furnace -pipe and listen with delight to language that should have given me curly hair, interspersed with the occasional clang, when he'd belt the furnace with his shovel out of sheer rage. I spent a winter in northern England, with archiac and often non -existing heating equipment, except in the pubs, Sheer,' clammy misery, except in the pubs. I spent another in Germany on the Baltic Sea, with very little food and almost no heat, Not much joy there. Then I got marled. Our first place had two wood stoves, I'd hop out of bed, plunk my freezing baby in with his warm mother, and rustle up two fires, Then I'd take a roll of newspaper into the cellar, set fire to it, and unfreeze the water pipes which froze solid every night. Then off through the zero to the newspaper office, which boasted one of the last wood -burning furnaces on the continent. You could see your breath in the place until about 11 a.m. We graduated to a coal furnace, which did nothing but pro- duce in me the same violence and frustration my father had felt twenty years before, When I think of those days, and step out of bed into a pleas- antly oil -heated house, I realize what a piddling little cold spell we're having now, and almost feel like going out in the snow in my py- jamas and doing some push-ups. Almost. !r';!1i1111lnlll!Irnnllr��!1i�li@!!111111)II�!1�11�!II�II(�I�IUif �I F111111131161119llnn011 i!(il9'!nl!m 7.15101111 !

They have a vague idea that since there is a Senate, as there is in Canada, the two must be rela- tively similar. Nothing could be farther from the truth, for there is a world of difference between the Canadian Parliament and the American Congress, One of the few things they have in common is that they are relatively demo- cratic, First of all, the important thing to remember is that the President and his cabinet are separate from Congress and are not a part of it, as is the case in the Canadian parliament where the Prime Min- ister sits in the house of Com- mons along with the other M.P,'s, There are two parts of Congress —the house of Represeptatives and the Senate. The Ilouse of Hepresentatives is re-elected ev- ery two years, and since most of the members come from rola- tively safe seats, there is rarely any barge turnover of represent- atives. Unlike the British or Can- adian system where the Senate (House of Lords) has had its powers steadily deteriorate, the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives are' relativlely equal. In theory, the House had a special role in money bills but, in roality, this has survived only to the extent that the house in- sists that it be the first to pass such bills, The members of the House are less hound to the dic- tates of their party than are Can- adian M.P.'s and are more likely to vote on any given bill accord- ing to their personal opinion. Thus you have the spectacle of Democrats supporting a bill pro- posed by a Republican president or vice versa, In Canada, this happens only in isol gted cases, One of the important character- istics of the Ilouse Is its' number of specialized committees, each of which can contain both Repub- licans and Democuiats, the num- ber based roughly on the per- centage of members , which each party has in the Ilouse: The same committee may be found in the Senate, (of which there are two members from each state) so that a great deal of legislation has to pass the scrutiny of both Houses, and it may end up In a consider- ably different form from that in which It was presented at the be- ginning, With regards to legislation, it h the president and his cabinet which prepare the bills they feel are necessary and then present them to congress, where they are examined by both Houses, The president cannot come in and bake part in the debate, but there is a great deal of wheeling and deal- ing which goes on between the two parties before a vote is taken on the legislature. It Is here that the changes may Abe made before it is put to a vote, It can he turn- ed clown, in which case it is up to the president to present another plan, or it can be. passed, albeit in different form, and the presi- dent can, if he so desires, veto what Congress has passed, The president can also conclude with other countries treaties which are subject to ratification by two- thirds of the Senate. Ile can also carry out a host of other duties, appoint certain officials and, when all is said and done, he has considerably more power than a Canadian Prime Minister, FAITH How do 1 know that God is good? I don't. I GAMBLE LIKE A MAN. I bet my life Upon one side in life's great war. I must, I can't stand off. I must take sides. The man Who is a neutral in this fight is not A man. He's bulk and body without breath, Cold leg of lamb without mint sauce. A fool, He makes ire sick. Good Lord. Weak tea! Cold slops! 1 WANT TO LIVE, live out, not wobble through My life somehow, and then into the dark. I must have God. This life's too dull without. What's man to live for else? Cf I could not look up and hear God speaking through the silence of the stars, How is it proved? IT ISN"T PROVED, you fool, it can't be proved. How can you prove a victory before It's won? How can you prove a man who leads, '1'o be a leader worth the following, Unless you follow to the death — and out r,eyond mere death, which is not anything But Satan's lie upon eternal life? Well -- God's my leader, and I hold that He Is good, and strong enough to work His plan And purpose out to its appointed end, I am no fool, I have my reasons for This faith, but they are not the reasonings, The coldly calculated formulae Of thought divorced from feeling. 1 SEE WHAT GOD HAS DONE, What life in this world is, I see what you See. This life stinks in places, 'Tis true, yet scent of roses and of hay New mown comes stealing on the evening breeze, And through the market's din, the bargaining of cheats, who make God's world a den of thieves, hear Chuch bells ring out to prayer, and see The faithful kneeling still By the Calvary Of Christ. I HAVE TO CHOOSE. 1 back the scent of life Against its stink. That's what the Faith works out at Finally. I know not why the Evil, I know not why the God, both mysteries Remain unsolved, and both insoluble. I know that both are there, the battle set, AND I MUST FIGIIT ON THIS SIDE OR ON THAT. 1 can't stand shiv'ring on the bank, I plunge Head first. 1 BET MY LIFE on Beauty, Truth, And Love, not abstract but incarnate Truth, Not Beauty's passing shadow but its Self, Its very self made flesh, Love realized. I bet my life On Christ — Christ crucified. Behold your God! My soul cries out, I see All history pass by, and through it all Still shines that face, The Christ Face, like a star Which pierces drifting clouds, and tells the Truth, They pass, but It remains and shines untouched, A pledge of that great hour which surely comes When storm winds sob to silence, fury spent To silver silence, and the moon sails calm :And stately through the soundless seas of Peace. So through the clouds of Calvary — there shines His face, and I believe that Evil dies, Ind Good lives on, loves on, and conquers all — All War must end in Peace. These clouds are lies. They cannot last. The blue sky is the Truth, :'or God is Love. Such is my Faith, and such 11y reasons for It, and I find them strong Enough. AND YOU? You want to argue? Well, I can't. It's a choice. I choose the Christ, (Written by G.
