During the open meeting,' little new business was aired, All but three of the recommend- ations from "The Arts In Educ- ation" meeting were approved and the three which were tabled involved budget limitations as well as a" follow-up study of county needs.. The recommendation from the academic planning committee to form a -teacher -trustee -admin- istration liaison commit tee was also approved. A brief discussion was held on the request from the London - board of education to put a freeie on' administrative salar- ies, but board members agreed to file the'. correspondence. -The feeling.was that the Huron board had been holding the -,, line on administrative spend.= ing as well as other education- al spending since the board's beginning,and did not feel it was necessary to put a freeze on salaries which were already well Within the guidelines set by other boards in the province.

Standard /Editorials MOS, are 1001010 r 000 Despite problems which have made headlines in some loc- . al papers, a visit to the former air base in Clinton shows the attempt to convert it to civilian use is proceeding at full •'speed, Last week word was received that the plan of subdivision foc the Base had been approved by the provincial, government which means that only the county's approval must now be :.gained for the Base plan, This means that deeds can then . officially be given for the land. Despite this governmental hang-up, 'however, activity has not been at. a standstill at the Base, Many of the houses have been sold and most of the apartments are already rented. A gas station is now in operation and a food store will likely soon be opened to serve the needs of the residents of the townsite, What does this mean for Blyth? Simply this. It was pointed out last week that nearly all • the housing units at the Base are now filled up and yet not one factory has yet moved in. At last coynt, five or six factories had planned to locate at the Base, employing more than 200 people. If the houses are already taken up, where are these people going to live with their families. For a good many, it might just be here in Blyth. Blyth is in a position to take a great advantage of_a boom caused by., the growth around the old Base. We have a 'comm!. unity which is nice to live in, has cheaper taxes than many others, and only a few miles away from the Base. And we still have plenty of inexpensive land within the village lim- its' on which to build houses (the official Huron County Plan says Blyth could grow to a population of 1540 with its pres- ent boundaries with little expenditure on increased water and sewerage facilities). This expansion could be accomodated with little hinderance to the present population. In any expansion at the Base, Blyth has almost as much to gain as Clinton and possibly more since we can have the benefit without the expense which will be involved in. pro- viding such needed facilities .as sewerage and water facilities at new factories. We can have people without the presence of factories which would cause pollution. At the same time, the possibility of growth in our own community, points up the urgent need for the Planning Board that is now in the process of being farmed. This process should be speeded up as much as possible. Coping with the problems of growth must be, done before the growth starts, not in the middle of a boom. Time to Dan tiork$ • An accident with fireworks last week badly injured a local boy. In Brucefield, a historic building was almost burned down when it was set on fire by what firemen think was a fire- cracker carelessly let off on the property, In Toronto, two. boys were nearly burned to death when someone threw a fire- cracker at the tent in which they were sleeping and the tent caught fire. Sadly, but clearly, the time has come to ban the general sale of fireworks to the public. Such a decision will bring sadness to many. Nearly every- one can remember playing with firecrackers when they were young or watching their father light a Roman Candle on the front lawn and seeing the flashing colours spurt skyward. But the time has come when the fun has been outdone by the damage of the little explosives. True, there are many children who still use fireworks sensibly, but unfortunately, even with these, accidents can happen such as fireworks going off in a pocket and producing serious burns. But there are also the nuts who think its funny to throw firecrackers at people walking by or to throw firecrackers from cars as they rush down the street or to slip a firecracker into the pocket of an unsuspecting playmate. Many of these are old enough to know better. Along with the ban, there should be an attempt to provide a community fireworks display in every town and village. Such a display can provide a spectacle for children far better than anything their family could hope to do. Such a display would be an event which would bring the community together and every event which brings a community together helps to strengthen it. Hopefully, some group here in Blyth will start planning now for next year and seek to provide a display that will serve everyone in Blyth and district. Hopefully, there will be no tragedy next year. WHAT'S NEW AT HURUNVIEW A special Mother's Day song service was held in the auditor- ium on Sunday evening spons- ored by the South Huron Christ- ian Women's Club. Mrs. Luth- er of Hensall led the singing of several familiar hymns, with piano accompaniment by Mr. Luther,. Mrs. Whilsmith and Mrs. Small of Exeter, along with Rev, and Mrs. Button of Hensall led the devotional period with special tribute to Mothers, The Heywood Broth- ers, Bob and Danny, played several guitar duets. One Hundred and fifty residents were entertained on Wednesday afternoon by 65 grades 2, 3, 4, and 5 students from Brucefield Centennial School, The prjncipal, Mr, Mathers, introduced and dir- ected the program which in- cluded vocal solos; duets; trio quartets; dance numbers; organ, piano, 'and trumpet solos.

KELLER The world is surely a crazy place to live, isn't it, but unfortunately, there's no place else to go, -.We're here on this planet and we're stuck .with it - for a while at least. A few days ago I was having a kind of ecumenical discussion with a friend of mine. We were talking about all sorts of things, but as usually happens when I talk with this particular friend, the topic got around to religion. Now don't get me wrong. This column isn't going to be a discourse on the differences between religious denominations ... although I'll just bet there are many readers out there who would get a big bang out of reading something like that. Actually what my friend was saying was that The Pope in ' Rome turns him off because The Pope dons his papal robes and ermerges from his papal palace and tells the masses to love one another, to feed the starving, to clothe the naked, to heal. the sick. He then re- turns to the seclusion of his. finely furnished, well -stocked mansion and does nothing, Well, I don't know what the papal palace looks like. I don't know whether The Pope wears ermine or rags. I don't, know whether he eats steak or dry bread, And it doesn't much I matter to me because I believe ' that in our own ways, each of us is a hypocrite. .. and anyone who says he isn't is that much more of a hypocrite. . I told my friend rot.to fault The Pope for his human weak- nesses unless he could prove blameless himself, I reminded him that in my humble opin- ion, anyone who lived com- fortably omfortably and ate well and dressed warmly and did not share with his neighbours and friends who were in need, was just as guilty as anyone, And that's what turns me off when it comes to most modern day peacemakers. So many of these would-be do-gooders think that by sitting idly by writing poetry and talking about love, they are bringing peace to the world. Tell someone who's being oppressed that you're sid- ing him by wearing a flower in your teeth and strumming a guitar, and he'll tell you you've got something to learn, buddy. It really irks .me, too, .that some people believe they are, perfectly within their rights to live the way they want to live., , despire the fact that their only source of income is welfare. And here again, please don't get the idea that I'm opposed to welfare, For deserv- ing people - folks who for some reason beyond their own control are unable to earn a decent wage - I believe welfare should be provided in such amounts that it provides a dig- nified lifefor the recipient. But take the healthy, virile male who prefers to recline in bed until noon and rises only to rest until evening when the action begins., just because he doesn't "dig" (agree- with) the free enterprize, democratic concept. This fellow will brag about his "rights" in a free society - and then ignore the people who fought to make it free. He'11 do nothing at all to re- tain the precious freedom which makes it possible for his makes it possible for him to enjoy his peculiar quirks in peace. - 1 1 Thi3lyth When he gets hungry, he'll expect to be fed. , but he' 11 scoff at the silly fools who expend an honest day's. effort to provide. the funds for • his welfare cheque. He'll beg all to leave ' off working, but has. no thought for where the funds will be realized to support his life, He won't lift a pinky to help himself or anyone else, but he'll scream bloody murder and protest all day and half way through the night if necessary to complain when there's a so- called "injustice". He'll kill and maim and burn and plunder in the name of peace - and he'll call it "justice", I just don't "get it on with" (understand) the people who, as the Bible ' so aptly .puts it, fail to remove the beams from their own eyes before attempting to take out the splinter from the other fellow's peepers. So The Pope doesn't actively pursue the feeding of the mass- es by inviting 100 Biafrans to dinner each evening, What difference does it make, when Joe Blow from Kokomoe doesn't give that extra winter coat to the shivering refugees in China? Who, really, does the most to- ward world peace? Standard KEITH W. ROULSTON, PUBLISHER_,.

The purpose of the bank is to store and monitor all real estate transaction information around valuation day for taxation ad- ministration, The project is in the pilot stage, and the Department of Municipal Affairs and the Ont- ario Department of Revenue agreed intergovernmental co- operation in this matter, The Federal Government rec- ognized there would be certain costs in extracting information and it has been agreed that the Province will be compensated accordingly, The Province of Saskatchewan is currently taking part in a sim- ilar test arrangement.

To achieve this, all partic- ipants will be expected to be actively involved in the reg- ular life of the host family and the visitor will be treated as a 'member' of the family. The purpose of the program is not to create a task force or, a hol- iday, but to expose the visitor to the normal activities of his a her new environment to learn. Both exchangees and host families (urban and rural) will be insured for accident and liability, '. 'Communication' and 'environ- ment' have become the catch wards of the sixties and sevent ies..

If someone more important than you comes in, you may have to suffer the indignity and'shame of moving down the table, Take rather, the lower seats and you may be honoured by being asked to move up"", (Luke 14;7-11), There doesn't seem to be any more in this than a fairly mild piece of advice about good manners and how to conduct oneself at social functions, A good deal of the teaching of Jesus is taken in this light hearted way, as though it is no more than instruct- ion in morality offered in an almost take it or leave it way, A man, asked recently about the Church, answered ""it"s the young people you should get after, we middle aged and older folk are set in our ways and all this religion is not going to make any real difference to us now", This sort of faith was well described by one professor, with great contempt, as 'middle class morality", If the teaching of Jests is to be interpreted in this fashion two things arise, First, the gospel becomes a Gospel of Good Stand- ing , It would appear to depend on and speak mainly to middle class people. It would seem to regard as, important middle class income, values and objectives. It would seem to be pre- sented in a take it cr leave it way, and the Church can not blame those who simply - leave it. Second and of, much greater importance, it raises a fundament- al question about the interpretation of the gospel as a whole. How could such mild mannered.teaching on the lips of Jesus have given rise to so much bitterness and hostility on the part of the authorities'of His day. How could His words have made such an impact that they felt that He must be destroyed..Pre- cisely because His words were not a Gospel of Good Standing. Because He continually challenged men to consider a much more telling question. The question of their relation to God. He was constantly reminding men that they must humble. themselves before God just as the man in the stay humbled himself before his host, This is the Gospel. It is decisive. It demands a decision.

Brush a coat of Fasteron on the worn area. Complete the job two hours later by ap- plying the finish to the en- tire floor. You didn't mention the size of your hall, but one im- perial gallon of Fasteron will cover an area of approxi- mately 500 square feet. FOR FURNITURE AND EXTERIOR USE This wood finish may also be used for furniture, panel- ing, and other fine finishes. It is available in either a Gloss or Satin Finish. Faster - on Satin tends to minimize imperfections in the surface of older floors and furniture and produces an attractive rubbed effect. Because it's waterproof, this finish is especially suitable for exterior wood and boats. It has unusual resistance to both fresh and salt water. Again, because of its fast dry- ing time,, several coats may be applied in the same day for added protection. RED CROSS WATER SAFETY YOUR DEALER FOR: PRIDEIYBRID.

Recognize young, tender stalks by close compact tips that are deep green or bluish green. Spreading, opened tips indicate overmaturity or stalks which have been cut for too long a time, say food special- ists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Avoid stalks that are very thin, crooked or wilted, or which have large amounts of white woody base -- these will be tough. Stalks should be firm but tender (brittle and easily punctured). Buy from a refrigerated dis- play if possible, and use it quickly while freshness lasts. Refrigerate unwashed in a plast- ic bag until used. One pound will provide three to four serv- ings. TO prepare asparagus, wash it well, removing any loose scales. Break off (don't cut) the woody base -- the stalk will snap where the tender part begins. Tie in bundles (use foil) and stand up- right in a deep pot, pyrex cof- fee perk, or double boiler (in- vert the top of the double boil- er and use as a lid), Add boil- . ing salted water to about half- way up sides of stalks, so stalks will cook in water and tips in steam. Or lay stalks in a large skillet with about 1 -inch water, and use crush- , ed foil_ to. prop tips- out of water. Cook covered 10 to 15 minutes,. until just tender. Drain and °serve with melted butter, a squeeze of lemon, grated cheese, hollandaise, white or cheese sauce. Plant dahlias for colour and variety Dahlias make a bright dis- play in the flower bond er or gar- den, - A wide range of types are avail - :able from dwarf varieties with small blooms to tall varieties with very.large blooms, :. Dahlias prever a sunny location protected from the prevailing winds says, D. B; McNeill, hort- icultural specialist, Ontario Min- istry of Agriculture and Food. Hot;: dry locations should be avoided, They prefer fertile, well drained soils, Because of their rapid rate of growth, they require a good supply of moisture. Dahlias should never be plant- ed lanted until the danger of frost has . past. The roots should be plant- ed, lanted, preferably on their sides, 4 to 6 inches deep and covered with 2 inches of soil. The balance of soil should be filled in as the plants grow. Most dahlias re- quire staking, These should be in place.at planding time to avoid root damage later on .

Compensation for EIA (Swamp Fever) Reactors The federal government will pay compensation to horse own- ers who have their animals des- troyed under a program to rid the Canadian horse population of Equine Infectious Anemia (Swamp Fever), Agriculture Minister H.A. (Bud) Olson announced today. As a service to horse owners, in February 1971, federal vet- erinarians started using the Coggins test and since then more than 50,000 Canadian horses have been tested through the Health of Animals Branch laboratories at Hull, Quebec. When the testing began, about seven per cent of the horses reacted positively. That was considered to be a significant rate of infection. Since then, the rate of posit- ive reactors has dropped to about one per cent and continues to 1 decline. Last year the federal govern- ment also introduced require- ments whereby imparted horses had to react negatively to the Coggins test before they would be allowed`entry to Canada. "With this lower level of in- fection, we have decided to move to the second stage of the program to eradicate the disease," Mr. Olson said. "We will pay compensation for lases that react positively to the Coggins test and are slaughtered, "There will be provision in special cases for owners to keep horses which have reacted pos- itively under strict quarantine supervised by Health of Animals Branch veterinarians, "We have in mind cases where the horse has special value to the owner, such as valuable breeding animals and pets," he said. "These animals will be marked to identify them as pos- itive to EIA," Details of payment of comp - enation will be announced soon.

It says here. I hope there's some an- cient saying like: "Stormy wedding day, sunny mar- riage. Not that there was any- thing stormy about the wed- ding itself, It was positively seraphic, and some people were smiling with sheer de- light for the first time in years, But the weather was something else. The day be- fore was sunny and still. The day after was the same, The wedding day was the worst rotten day of a long, rotten spring. Driving rain and bone -chilling wind, I know. 1 was there, Out in it, doing all the last- minute chorevoilhe cubes, cream for (he coffee, smokes, mix, dry-cleaners, etc, I have neither a hat nor a raincoat and I couldn't find my wife's umbrella, so I was soaked to the skin from the navel both ways. However, I mustn't com- plain, even though 1 have my first bad cold for three years. It was KIM'S DAY, as everyone kept telling me for about a month, and what matter if her dear old Dad has double pneumonia. Somehow, as it so often happens, everything fell into place. Her old lady talked her way out of the hospital, then went three solid days and nights without one wink of sleep. She was so nervous and exhausted she was positive she'd have to take to her bed before the ceremony. But from that subterranean depth which most of us don't possess, she not only made it, but came through with flying colours. The rug -cleaning man had been here and every- thing was spotless. This was bad, because everybody would have muddy feet. But it was good, because every- body wiped their feet or took off their boots. A gang of boys had ar- rived the day before to rake up the lawn, This was good. But it was bad because everybody, was too wet : to notice, First arrival was -Shelby, an • itinerant young actor, one of the - men Kim had shared her apartmentwith all year, No, he was not the bridegroom; This was bad, because Kim was, still talk- ing and laughing with him, in jeans and T-shirt, with one hour to go.before :the ceremony, But - this was good, because Shelby is a great mixer, and later on, when we ran out of mix, he went out and got some, Next guests were two drenched urchihs who had hitch -hiked through the tor- rent some 65 miles. Soaked right through. I didn't know what to do with them. Son Hugh, all the way from Montreal for the day, provi- ded a solution that no middle-aged square would have thought of, He took them downstairs, had them take off their jeans and threw them, (the jeans, not the kids), in the dryer. Then both front and back doorbells started to ring like a five -alarm fire, and yours truly, the only one dressed, sprinted back and forth, accepting . gift- wrapped parcels from little boys and delivery men, hanging up dripping coats, and trying to introduce per- fect strangers to each other, Chaos, But chaos often works better than logistics, This was to be a Baha'i cere- mony. The bride and groom, with their typical acumen, had not even de- cided on the order of the ceremony; and were — well, not squabbling, but arguing - until the moment of truth, • Kim hissed at me, "Dad, you say our prayer after Marlene. That's all you have to remember," And that's about all 1 did remember. There it an old cliche: "The. bride was beautiful in a , , " Well, I'm here to tell you that the bride was beau- tiful, in a long, svelte, bor- rowed dress that looked as though she had stepped out of a Botticceli painting, long auburn hair, huge brown eyes and infinite youth.

Milk..00e00-0'by alf 'age groups Milk is .a valuable food for all age groups, not just growing - children, say food specialists at the Ontario Food Council; Min-, istry of Agriculture and Food. . Milk is a major -source of ribo- flavin (vitamin B2) and calcium in the diet. The body's need for these two minerals continues throughout life, to maintain body functions and health. Canada's Food Guide, devel- oped liy the Canadian Council on Nutrition, recommends 11 - cups of milk daily for adults. Teens have the highest require- ment (4 cups daily), The'recom- mended amount for,children is 21 cups. Using skim milk powder is a convenient and economical Way to obtain the nutrients found in milk. Skim milk powder is not. a milk substitute -- it is milk, with all the protein, calcium, minerals' and vitamins of skim milk. (Skim milk, whether fresh or reconstituted, . is low in vitamin A compared to whole milk. This vitamin is fat soluble, and removed with the cream or butterfat) Skim milk powder; added with other dry ingredients to baked goods, sauces, puddings, meat patties or loaves, becomes a real nutrition booster: Recon- stituted, it has the flavor and food value of fresh; skim` milk, with only 90 calories, .For a richer flavor, combine equal amounts of whole milk and skim milk powder mixed with water. nell's -MARKET FOOD = Phone 523-9332 We D e I Iver WESTON' S FRESH BREAD 4FOR 89 VAN CAMP S BEANS WITH PORK 48 OZ. :TIN/49 i AYLMER PEAS or CF EAM CORN .., 14 oz,, 6 FOR 99 AYLMER CATSUP 25 oz.

Scenes .. • by Keith Roulston You'll pardon, I hope, those of us in the weekly newspaper' business if we aren't too ec- static when a holiday such as the Victoria Day holiday just past comes up. It seems at least half of the holidays in the year, either on purpose or by accident, fall on Mondays, and in the weekly newspaper business, holidays on Mondays are no holiday at all. Most of us have the day off, all right (there isn't much you can do anyway when everyone else is on holiday) but it means working hard all day on 'a usually leisurely Friday to get ready for the holiday, and wanking twice as hard on Tues- day, " a day that's normally hectic anyway, to catch up with the holiday so that by Wednesday, the paper is ready to go to press. By then, you're in need of another holiday. It wasn't always thus, of course. I can' remember when I used to look forward to .the Victoria Day Holiday with pleasure. As a kid, of course, there was always the thrill of the fireworks, but more import- ant, there was the thrill of the first holiday of the summer, the first time when you had , the time to take the dog and go for a walk in the bush to see the flowers, or take an extra long bike ride. It meant the start of softball' season too and that made it special as you pounded a new ba s eball glove into shape, practised your swing, and dreamed of the home runs you would hit and the double -plays you'd make to help your team win the championship. Later on in the summer, of course came sad reality when you struck out three times in a row, booted an easy grounded and saw your team locked in a vicious battle for fifth place in a six " team league. Ah, but , in May the dreams were sweet. Another dream was the dream of catching a big trout, the biggest one ever caught in the area, from the secret fishing hole. only you knew about. By summer, of course, you knew why the hole was secret --nobody else wanted to catch the six-inch chub that was the biggest fish in that stretch of water. There was one dream, though, that came true. It was the dream that surfaced first every Victoria Day week- end about the coming of the end of the school year and the long, warm sunny days you'd soon have all to yourself. The only thing that spoiled that dream was that every year about this time, some edu- cation expert would make a statement about soon the schools would stay in session all summ- er long to make better use of expensive buildings. I guess the kids know now, however, that they never have to worry about such a happening The teachers would never allow it --for if the kids are dreaming of summer, the teachers are even more so. Now every year about this time, I dream Ism a teacher, not a newspaperman. It's another dream that never comes true.
