By the time Blyth firemen arr-

barn was burning out of control,
and flames were eating their
way into the main portion of
the barn, which was built only
in the past year.

busy day
Saturday was a busy day for
Blyth Fire Department.
The day began about 1:00 a. m,
with the call to the Bailey fire
where firemen fought to control
the fire for several hours.
About 11:00 a. m, they received
another call to the farm of John
Van Den Assem on the sixth line
of Morris. Mr. Van Den Assem
had been shelling cobs of corn
and burning the cobs when the
fire spread to the corn crib,
There was some damage to the
crib and can stared in it before
firemen could arrive and extingu-
ish the flames.
The third call for assistance of
the day came at about 4:00 p, m.
Saturday afternoon when firemen
raced to the home of Harry Tebb-
utt on the eighth concession of
Hullett,
Mr. Tebbutt had been burning
some trash behind his house when
sparks apparently landed on the
roofand the shingles caught fire,
A passing motorist saw the fire
and told Mr, Tebbutt. A garden
hose was used to keep the flames
under control until firemen arriv-
ed.
Fire Chief Irvine Bowes said
that damage to the attic of the
two -storey house was 'extensive
and that the roof had been dam-
aged
am-aged also. Water daniage to the
rest of the house, however, was.
slight, thanks mostly, Chief
Bowes said, to the use of foam
to fight the fire. The foam
system' uses only 10 percent
water. The Chief praised the
role foam has paid in combat-
ing several fires since the de-
partment acquired the equip-
ment recently.
The refusal of Bell Canada's
request of telephone toll rates
may have derailed the fight of
the Huron County Federation of
Agriculture to win bigger toll
areas in North Huron.
Mason Bailey, of Blyth, pres-
ident of the Huron Federation of
Agriculture at which John Cunn-
ingham of Bell said that be-
cause Bell had been granted only
a five percent increase it would
be very limited in its building
program in the next five years,
Bailey termed it "bad news"
for the people of north Huron.
The Federation had begun a
fight last summer to have toll-
free calling areas in the north-
ern part of the county enlarged.
Petitions were circulated and
found heavy support among the
residents of the area, The Fed-
eration went on to negotiate
with Bell after receiving supp-
ort of the councils of all -mun-
icipalities involved.
The refusal of the increase
Bell asked for, however, ;nay
have delayed the enlarging of
toll areas longer, according to
Mr. Bailey.
Mr. Bailey also reported that
membership in the OFA was
now over 11, 000 with over 20
percent of the members in
Huron and Perth counties. Hur-
on membership now totals
1070.
Three resolutions from Huron
County were dealt with at the
OFA meeting. One regarded
rates charged from some banks
for automatically renewing
OFA memberships. The rate
varies from nothing to two doll-
ars across the province. The
resolution was passed, but it

Mill rates for Morris township
property owners were set last
week when the cotthcil met,
County rate for the Morris tax-
payers will be 20.3 and township

Wawanosh school area supporters
will pay 20, 38 for farm and res-
idential and 18, 34 for commerc-
ial. The Grey area will pay
18.47 and 16.62 and Turnberry •

Separate school rate will be
12. 50. Supporters of Central
Huron Secondary School will

Council voted a grant of 100
to the Blyth Agricultural Society
and granted both the Blyth Society
and the Huron Plowmen's Assoc-
iation the right to sell lottery tick-
ets in the township.
A delegation was present request-
ing a grant for Walton Community
Hall and is to report back to coun-
cil at a later meeting.
A penalty of three percent plus
one per cent per month interest
charges were approved for persons
not paying their property taxes
on time,
Road accounts of $33,576. 97
and general accounts of $4, 768.94
were ordered paid,
was pointed out that there was
little that could be done since
individual bank managers set
the policy for their branches.
A second resolution regarding
the setting up of more over-
seas trade mission to sell Ont-
ario produce was also passed.
It "went over big' according to
Mr. Bailey.
The third, asking for abolition
of different fuel pricing zone
also passed although it was
felt that nothing could be done
to stop the practice except make
a big noise.
Two new resolutions, moved by
Adrian Vos of Blyth, were passed
at the meeting Thursday.
The first called on the OFA to
continue to press the provincial';
government to put a halt to vert-
ical integration and to curtail
livestock contracts while at the
same time requesting financing
to help replace that now given
by non-farm interests.
The second resolution called

vine Bowes as being in excess
of $ 35,000.
For Mr. Bailey, it was the
third fire in recent years. It
was only less than a year ago
that the main barn on the farm
was burned in another early
morning fire but a new wing
on the barn was saved. The
fire started in that wing this
time and also destroyed a major
portion of the new barn which
replaced the one burned last
year.
Chief Bowes said the fire is
under investigation by the Ont-
ario Provincial Police and the
Ontario Fire Marshal's Office.
He said it appeared at one time,
that they were zeroeing in on
the cause, but that now the scope
of the investigation had been
widened,
Earlier, Mr, Bailey had lost a
barn on another farm, . just down
the road from the home farm,
In all, there have been a total
of seven fires within a mile of
the corner of the third concess-
ion and one sideroad west of
Highway 4 in East Wawanosh
Township in the last couple of
years.
Although the flames lit up the
sky and could be seen from
Blyth, little of the fire could
be seen from the Bailey house,
because the fire started in the
corner of the building farthest
from the house.
East Wawanosh budget set
Taxes for East Wawanosh town-
ship derived from mill rates are
up about $30,000 this year accord•
ing to the township budget approv-
ed by township council last week.
Smile...
There are now available coffee
dispensers for office use that look
exactly like filing cabinets. They
will match up with an untold
number of coffee drinkers who
look exactly like office workers.
Of the total, $20,000 is due to
the withdrawal of f the Basic Shel-
ter Grant by the provincial govern-
ment. School levies have increas-
ed $8500 and the county rate is
up $2500, The township rate,
however, is slightly lower with
residents of the part of Auburn
in East Wawanosh saving eight
mills over last year.
In other action, council accept-
ed the engineer's report on the
Cook municipal drain repair.
Road accounts of,$15, 988.79
and general accounts of $1638. 42
were approved for payment.

Our greatest resource
With all the talk about gaining new industry for Blyth and tapp-.
ing tourism for more dollars, the people of Blyth should not for-
get to recognize and preserve their greatest asset -- their friend-
liness.
The other day a business man who had recently moved to one
of the other towns in the area was saying that he wished he had
looked at Blyth more closely before he settled, He wasn't im-
pressed, to say the least, with many of the businessmen he had
to deal with in his new home, but said he was thrilled with the
good relationship he had developed while working with the bus-
iness community in Blyth, He liked the village so well, he said,
he was even thinking of picking up and moving to Blyth,
This is just one illustration of what a nice smile and a friendly
wad can do to leave a good impression on a stranger. We must
remember that, sure, it would be nice to have a couple of new
factories or more tourists stopping in town, but it would be a
tragedy if these advances made us forget to be as friendly as we
are now.
SDecIaI police rights?
The other night, a member of the staff of this newspaper was
travelling toward Brussels to deliver some newspapers. It was
dark and the driver was travelling about 55 to 60 miles per hour,
A car approached from behind, passed, and travelling at a rapid
rate, soon disappeared into the darkness ahead in seconds. A
conservative estimate would put the speed at at least 75 miles
per hour. The car was an Ontario Provincial Police cruiser.
Two questions: 1, What gives police officers the idea that they
are above the laws they themselves are hired to enforce? This car
may have needed to be going that fast, but if so, he should have
had his flasher and siren on, Chances are, he was just out on patrol,
He was not unique, Most times one sees a police car of any force
on the highway, it is travelling in excess of the speed limit,
2, Safety organizations tell us that if you travel faster than 55
miles per hour at night, you are outracing your own headlights;
that you couldn't possibly react and stop in time if you saw
something in the road ahead,
It would seem obvious that there must be some reason for sett-
ing speed limits, It's our understanding that the limits are there
to protect people from themselves, to keep people driving at a
reasonable speed so they won't kill themselves or someone
else, If so, are our police officers so stupid that they don't rea-
lize this? How can they expect ordinary citizens to obey laws if
they flaunt them themselves?
We hope we'll get some answers,
Get out and ilo 11
R. C, Findlay of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce was
right when he told Blyth Board of Trade last week to go out and
get for the community what is needed.
In a town our size, there are of course many things which we
would like to have but don't, It may be a need for better shopp-
ing facilities or better recreation facilities or more parks or per-
haps a lack of entertainment, If everyone sits back and bemoans
the fact that these facilities are not available, the town will nevW I OH 0 C a 11 wo Iasi?

The old railway bridge
From my win�ow by SHIRLEY J. KELLER
I have it figured out. I'm trying
to do too -much in the time allott-
ed to me daily. That's the reason
I'm running in circles , and
that's the reason everyone else I
know is on the same kick,
When 1 think back to my child-
hood (and man, that's going way
back) I remember a way of life
which was much, much different.
My mother, bless her soul, was a
hard-working woman, She did all
the sewing for our family; she _ ..
canned jars and jars of fruit and
vegetables, for the year; she baked
everything we ate that was baked
and at one point in time, she even
churned our butter; she kept our
farmhouse shining clean (with a
little help from me, under protest
of course); she helped my father
around the barn; she kept a huge
garden; she was in constant touch,
by letter, with our relatives; she
did all our redecorating; she embr-
oidered':a little something:: on
every pillowcase and tea towel
we owned; and she had plenty of
time left over to be a mother to
me, a wife to my father and a
help in the neighbourhood,
In my house,things are frantic
all the time, ---- and I sew nary
a stitch; I've given up canning;
the last thing I baked was at Chris-
tmas; my house looks like a cyclon
had ripped through it; I have no
garden and no -barn, not even a
goldfish; I write no letters; I do
no redecorating; I°haven't done
any embroidery; since I was a
teenager; and I belong to no
clubs, -
Where do I spend my time, I ask
myseld over and over,
Last week I took stock of my
activities forsevendays and at
last, -- at long last, --- I know
why I'm at my wit's end, I
don't do half the things my
mother did, that's true, --- but -
I'm attempting to provide serv-
ices for my family which my
mother never dreamed of giving.
thintendency on the somethingcan be done.
There is a about it�� almost always art of people in our part of the
country to sit back and feel that we are the victims of circum-
stance, or economic facts of life or government indifference.
Everybody sits around on their big fat bottoms and complains be-
cause someone doesn't come around and hand them a rosey future
on a silver platter, Well folks, that's not how things get done.
The only way this community, or any other for that matter, is
going to get what it wants, is by using the combined intelligence
of all its members, the strength of their arms, and the limit of
their resources to make things better. We've seen it in the past.
The town needed an arena, so everyone, with the leadership of,
the Lions Club, pitched in and they got an arena, The same
thing happened with artificial ice, And with these projects, the
town not only got a new facility, but a sense of solidarity and
accomplishment that would not have come if they had had some
architect draw up plans and hired a contractor to do all the
work and had paid the whole whow through taxes or grants, It
was done before, and it can be done again,

A realistic view of events of the past week in Canada forces
one to wonder, not IF we can hold our country together, but how
' i d o ed?
long can we last before the country as we know rt s est' y
First of all there was the infamous telecast from Parliament
Hill on Dominion Day which was all in French and raised cries
from even those English Canadian newspapers and radio comment-
ators who are usually objective about the French -English situat-
ion, Certainly, it was a mistake to give the show only in French
but it is rather juvenile fcr English Canada to react in such a
manner. Afterall, French Canadian had to put up with the same
sort of thing for 100 years.
In Calgary, the mayor. of Quebec city was a guest at the Cal-
gary Stampede, He started to make a speach in English, but
the French people in the audience asked him to speak in French
and he did, He was promptly subjected to catcalls and anti -
French slogans from the rest of the crowd, and left the stage
without finishing his speech.
A letter to the editor in a major Canadian magazine supposedly
read by well-educated persons says "bilingual requirements have
been steadily extended in the civil service for one reason only --
to give anyone whose mother tongue is French, and I don't mean
European French, a distinct advantage in job competitions over
those non -French Canadians who may apply."
Those are just three recent examples of the growing problem of
English backlash in Canada against all efforts to give Canadians
of French extraction an equal share of their country, It is be-
coming clearer daily, that Canadians, who haughtily looked
down on southern whites when they fought integration and bus-
ing, are just as bigoted as any southern redneck,
Certainly, the fight to give equality to French Canadians has
not been an easy one, but no one promised it would be. Certain-
ly, ther have been injustices to some English speaking persons
during that fight, especially in the civil service, but these are
small compared to 100 years of injustice on the other side, Cer-
tainly, Quebec government leaders have used the issue as a way
to put more power in their own hands, but every other provincial
government has been trying every method it could find to usurp
power from the Federal government:
The sad truth is that this block -headed hardening of attitude in
English Canada is playing right into the hands of those who want
to make Quebec separate from the rest of the country. They can
now turn to moderate Quebecers and say, see, we told you they'd
never be willing to give you an even break", With such attit-
udes on both sides, a united Canada won't last more than another
10 years,
For instance, I run a taxi serv-
ice on a 24-hour basis, You
would imagine that in a small
town like ours, there would be
no problems about getting around,
Distance isn't the hangup.. It is
timetabling which causes the
hassls,
Crafts at the playground for our
youngest run into our lunch hour,
Baseball practice interferes with
dinner. Track and field practice is
simultaneous with. swimming, ,--
and so on and soon.
And then there's our eldest son,
the one who does the odd jobs
about town. It is mother who tran-
sports the lawnmower from Point
A to Point B several times each
week, It is also mother who makes
it physically possible for our son to
be at two different jobs within a
few minutes of each other. Only
through my efforts can he hold
down so many positions and keep
all his appointments on time,
I also provide a catering service.
When the neighbourhood hikers
go on safari, I provide the snacks
(and the transportation to the
starting point). There's pizza to
make fa the record club; sand-
wiches for the rock band in the
basement; hotdogs for the sand-
lot softballers; potato salad for
the boys' night -out group; coff-
ee and sweets for the social
committee.
Shirley's shopping service is
second to none, When anyone
needs a new toothbrush or a
shirt and tie, I'm the one who
either goes to the local store
to pick it up or drives the needy
one to the city to get it in per-
son.
I run a telephone answering
service, also open 24 hours
daily. I take orders for lumber;
record messages regarding the
latest band practice changes; in-
form youthful callers that my
daughter is away and will return
about 3:30 p, m.. pass on the
word that the game is hide-and-
seek at the park; confirm dates;
and co-ordinate wardrobe prob-
lems for the blue-jeaners.
My laundry is also operating
24 hours a day. I'm responsible
for fresh gym suits and sweat
socks for my would-be track
star; clean sleepingbags for the
campers; fluff -dried towels and
face cloths for the constant bath-
ing and showering in our house;
dustless wiping cloths for the car;
and stacks and stacks of worn -
once -but -must -be -washed T-
shirts and bluejeans,
On top of all this, I run an
entertainment bureau with all
the latest information including
times and places for all the maj-
or events in town; an informat-
ion desk with complete data on

THE BLYTH, STANDARD, July 12, 1972. PC, 3.
City girl has only one complaint about farming... the flies
Karen Sadler, visiting in the area as part of the provincial government's urban -rural ex-
change, and her hostess Anne Clark corral some calves in a field on the farm of Anne's
father, James Clark just north of Walton, Karen is one of many city students who will
visit Huron during the exchange program this summer,
For Karen Sadler, there is only
one thing unpleasant about farm
life; the flies around the barn.
That's a pretty good record for
a 15 year old girl, Many farm
girls her age can think of a
whole list of things they don't
like,
But then, they probably don't
know how good they have it,
Karen was a farm girl for only
a week, Tuesday she returned
to her real home in Etobicoke
after spending a week at the
farm of lames Clark of R. R, 3,
Walton, Karen was part of the
first urban -rural exchange of
the 1972 summer, The program
was begun last year by the De-
partment of Agriculture and
Food, and has been carried on
this year by the Ministry of
Agriculture and Food,
In the first exchange of the
year many area farms hosted
city youngsters including Don-
ald Young, R 3, 3, Auburn;
Bev Wallace, R , R ,1, Londes-
boro; Andre Lammerant, R. R. 1,
Blyth; Joe Hunking, R, R, 1,
Auburn; Mason Bailey, R R. R , 3,
Blyth and John Hildebrand,
R, R, 2, Auburn,
Like most of the kids who took
part, it was the first experience
Karen had had with farming,
and she liked it, Her favourite
treat was horseback riding, and
she and 14 -year-old Anne Clark
shared many good times during
the week-long stay.
The exchange program was
organized to help increase under-
standing between urban and rural
people on the different ways of
life they live,
Twelve to 15 year-old students
in large cities apply to the pro-
gram through their schools to
visit a farm fora week. After
the farm visit, a 12 to 15 year-
old in the farm family may re-
turn to the city with the urban
visitor if they wish, Transportat-
ion is arranged by the co-ordin-
ator in the area,
The organizers look for young
people who are keen to learn
about farm life and about farm
people, who will fit in well and
become like one of the family
for a week, They don't expect to
be entertained but rather to be
part of the usual family routine.
All participants are interviewed
before being accepted. •
Families that are actively in-
volved in fanning in Ontario and
see that this is a worthwhile ex-
perience for both the urban and
rural families are welcome as
host families, It isn't necessary
to have a 12 to 15 year old on
the farm (although this is often
the case). Mostly, all that is '
needed is an interest in the idea
behind the program.
Livestock or crops or fruits and
vegetables are all examples of
farming in Ontario, and since
every farm is different from
the one beside it, any farm (large
or small) is quite acceptable.
All visitors and host families are
insured against accidents,
HMO C011114 employees honoured for long years oi service
Several awards for long ser-
vice were presented to county
em-ployees at the June session
of county council,
All for 15 years of service to
Huron, they were presented to
Mrs. Rita Dales, Clinton, a
seamstress at Huronview; Len
Westbrook, Goderich, 'a court
house caretaker; jack Lowe,
Brussels, of the bridge construct-
ion crew; and Murray, Underwood,
Wingham, a truck driver with
the Wroxeter Maintenance Pat-
rol,
The road report for June showed
that 1972 winter control to date
had cost $146,103 compared with
$147,053 for the same period
last year,
"We expect the year and cost
will not exceed the budgeted
amount of $180, 000," said
William Elston, reeve of Morr-
is and chairman of the road
committee,
The report also noted that the
road department is "feeling the
pinch of government restraints"
and urged ratepayers to be "a
little mare patient since we
simply cannot improve our
road system as quickly as we
would like to".
"We still feel confident that
our proposal to C, S. Mac -
Naughton, 'suggesting a revised
system of allotting subsidies
will be implemented in 1973
and thereby give us more free-
dom in setting our budget,"
said Elston.
County engineer Jim Britnell
noted that county is asking that
the province consider grants
with "no strings attached" and
giving the municipalities the
opportunity to spend the money
as they see fit.
A special guest at the meeting
was Murray Gaunt, Liberal MP
for Huron -Bruce, He urged coun-
ties to consider their own "restr-
ucturing" and to present their
plans to the provincial government
for assessment,
The Mayor of all five towns
in Huron were invited to the
session, Only Clinton's Mayor
Don Symons was unable to
attend, Also present was a
number of past wardens of
Huron.
Moira Couper, Hensall, co-
ordinator of Children's Recrea-
tion in Huron, gave an interim
report on her work, She is in
Huron at the expense of the
provincial government, conduct-
ing this pilot project to deter-
mine the need for recreational
activities other than sports,
"From talking to people in
the communities it would seem
that they have a real need for
greater opportunities in art,
crafts, theatre, etc, ," said Mrs,
Couper. "Many of the new pro-
grams which will be established
this suinmer will be of this nat-
ure and I believe that people
would like these to continue
through the year."
"I am finding great resources
in our county and believe that
with a little organization, more
people could become involved,
both as participants and leaders,"
continued Mrs. Couper. "There
couldbe greater contact one with
another in Huron County towns
and villages and much wider ex-
posure to arts; crafts and theatre
could take place."
She had anew idea which caught
the imagination of some of her -
listeners:

"THE GREATEST IS LOVE" (1 Corinthians 13)
If I had the gift of being able to speak in other languages
without learning them, and could speak in every language
there is in all of heaven and earth, but didn't love others, I
would only be making noise,
If I had the gift of prophecy, and knew all about what is going
to happen in the future, knew everything about everything, but
didn't love others, what good would it do? Even if I had the
gift of faith so that I could speak to a mountain and make it
move, I would still be worth nothing at all without love,
If I gave everything I have to poor people, and if I were burn-
ed alive fcr preaching the Gospel, but didn't love others, it
would be of no value whatever.
Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never
boastful or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude, Love does
not demand its own way, It is not irritable or touchy. It does
not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it
wrong, It is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever
truth wins out,
If you love someone you will be loyal to him, no matter what
the cost, You will always believe in him, always expect the
best of him, and always stand your ground in defending him,
All the special gifts and powers from God will someday come
to an end, but love goes on forever, Someday prophecy, and
speaking in unknown languages, and special knowledge - these
gifts will disappear,
Now we know so little, even with our special gifts, and the
preaching of those most gifted is still so poor, But when we have
been made perfect and complete, then the need for those inade-
quate special gifts will come to an end, and they will disappear.
It's like this: when I was a child I spoke and thought and reas-
oned as a child does, But when 1 became a man my thoughts
grew far beyond those of my childhood, and now I have put
away the childish things,
In the same way, we can see and understand only a little
about God now, as if we were peering at His reflection in a poor
mirror, but someday we are going to see Him in his complete-
ness, face to face, Now all that I know is hazy and blurred, but
then I will see everything clearly, just as clearly as God sees in-
to my heart right now.
There are three things that remain - faith, hope and love --
and the greatest of these is love,

Recreat on Commltlee resorts dellclt
A financial report released
recently shows the Blyth Rec-
reation Committee incurred
a deficit of $6411, 46 between
June 1971 and the end of May
this year,
The Committee showed tot-
al receipts of $8168, 49 against
expenses of $14, 579. 95,
Biggest source of income was
from the arena which brought
in $6542.80, The arena was
also the biggest source of ex-
pense, however totaling
$7687. 62.
Memorial Hall, on the other
hand had income of only
$1289.18 as compared to ex-
penses of $4, 013, 01. A major
part of this expense, however,
was incurred because of maj-
Hydro strike
continues
Ontario Hydro supervisory per-
sonnel continued to handle most
of the supply of power to the
province and meet other oper-
ating commitments as the
strike of the 12, 000 member
Local 1000, Canadian Union
of Public Employees against
the utility entered its fourth
week
"Far a number of days last
week only 800 union workers
were on the job across the
province," said Walter Palm-
er, Manager of Hydro's Clin-
ton Area. "CUPE attempted
to provide notice to Ontario
Hydro that shift workers at
generating and transformer
stations would return to work
prior to the weekend.
"The Commission told the
union these people would
not be accepted back to
work before Monday morning,
permitting supervisory staff
to operate the stations on a
previously planned schedule
without the disruption of furth-
er passible walkouts," said
Mr. Palmer,
He said that with the stations
being operated by management
staff all week, CUPE' S motives
in having shift workers return
immediately before the week-
end,
eekend, which carries premium
pay, appeared questionable.
"Of added concern was the
lack of guarantee as to how
long union staff would remain
on the job, and under the cir-
cumstances, whether the pub-
lic interest would best be serv-
ed by the union's proposition, "
said Mr. Palmer.
Union staff at operating off-
ices such as the Clinton Area
Office returned across the
province on Friday, but struck
again Monday morning, this
week. So fa management staff
who had been waking long
hours to keep the area oper-
ating there was little rest,
The Clinton Area Office,
manned by management staff
remains open this week for
the convenience of customers.

The most lucrative month
at the arena.was November,

expensive .month of operation'
was December when expenses .,
totaled $1737.49.

Hullett council discusses
Londesboro parking
Parking for Londesboro United
Church was a subject of discuss-
ion when Hullett .Township
council met on July 3,
Rev. Stanley McDonald and
R, Shaddick were present to
ask council about the parking
situation in front of the church.
The hill in front of the church

of reconstruction and paving.
Reeve Hugh Flynn was app-
ointed by council to see that
the centre line and angle
parking lines are painted on

Attractive mulches
keep weeds down
The use of mulches in shrub
and flower borders helps pre-
vent weed growth and retains
moisture in the soil. Mulches
give a neat, well-groomed
look to borders, improving
the appearance of the whole
garden. In addition, most prod-
ucts used, readily breakdown to
provide valuable organic matter
to the soil, says D. B. McNeill,
horticultural specialist, Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food,
Two of the most interesting
materials now used are chunk
bark and cocoa bean shells.
Cocoa bean shells are a relat-
ively new product whichis prov-
ing to be a good mulch. It is a
pleasant brown cola, and has
a delicious chocolate aroma
when freshly applied.

Don't hold your breath
waiting for ,its publication,
but this is the summer I'm
going to write a book.
It's the tenth summer in
a row that I've been going
to write a book, butthis
year will be different, It's
the year in which Pm not
going to write,a novel.
Other summers I didn't
get around to writing a play,
or an expose of the educa-
tional system, or a series of
pungent essays, or an,pttack
on marriage, This year it's
the novel.
That doesn't leave too
much, does it? Maybe I'll
write a "slim" volume of
verse, Any dam' fool can
write poetry these days.
The secret is to avoid
capital letters and punctua-
tion, make your lines all dif-
ferent lengths, toss in a little
erotic imagery, and make
the end result a visceral ex-
perience which nobody un-
derstands,
Here, just to show you
what I mean. If you don't
get a real charge out of it, a
profound emotional ex-
perience, that is, and
haven't a clue what it's
about, you're a connoiseur
of modern poetry, Oh, one
other thing: no rhyme
please. We'll just call it
Poem
yesterday
in the supermarket
a fat lady
or maybe she wasn't really
a lady
ran over my foot
not really ran but walked '
1 guess it was her buggy
laden with a quarter -ton of
cat food and orange juice
and tide and glide and
wax and snacks
and four cases cif non-
returnable bottles
and twelve pounds of
pallid meat
two bags of spuds
16 cans of chunky
soup
that ran over my foot (not
the soup) ,,
driving myseed wart into
my.
metatarsal
l wept•
not because it hurt like hell
but for lovable fat ladies
and unlovable super-
markets
and because I couldn't
do
a
thing.
Now, don't tell me that's
not a poem, It was a vivid
personal experience which I
attempted to convey to the
reader, It's got everything.
There's sex in it: a secret
yearn for fat ladies; the
word. metatarsal. There's
plenty of concrete images.
There's symbolism: how
about seed wart?a fertility
symbol if I ever saw one.
There's masochism, social
criticism and a deep person-
al sense of futility and frust -
THE BLYTH'STANDARD, July 12, 1972. PC, 15,
This is the year
for his non -novel
ration, It's what 1 would call
universal in its appeal.
They won't all be so
deep and bitter, of course,
There'll be the hearty bucol-
ic touch:
The garden ain't hoed
The lawn ain't mowed;
But I'll be blowed
If she's going to goad
Me into doing any of
them.
Then there'll be the
fragile, tender little lyric
that makes real poetry
lovers just wriggle and al-
most turn themselves inside
out, Something like:
love
myself
more
than
anyone but you
sorry baby
but maybe
it's not even true,
Sorry about that rhyme,
but sometimes it just comes
so automatic -like you can't
hold it back,
And of course there'll be
some dramatic narrative
stuff, I'm working on a sort
of epic called The Day 1
Shot the Black . Squirrel
Thinking It was a Black
Bear. But it still needs a
little polishing in the last
twelve cantos.
Maybe you think this is
just advance publicity for
my book, But 1 guarantee
there'll be something for
everyone, though some of it

will be pretty strong stuff,
and you may have to hide it
from your teenage kids, 1
was thinking particularly of
a couple: Down By the Old
Gravel Pit, and Let Me Call
You Meathead.
But there's also some
stuff coming up that is real-
ly haunting. One is -entitled
simply "Puke", It is based
on a great storm on the
Great Lakes when I, as
junior porter, did great
things with a mop after
people were sea -sick. It's
been haunting me ever
since, anyway.
So, there's a delectable
foretaste of my summer
project. I can hardly wait to
get started. Except that 1
have a golf date, then I'm
going swimming, then
there's a barbecue, and
somehow after a day like
that, the Muse and I are
both ready for the sack,

PC.16, THE BLYTH STANDARD, July. 12, 1972,
lack 100the past through The Standard's old files
5 years ago
July 12, 1967.
The old adage, "many hands
make light work" was proven
to its fullest extent last Thurs-
day evening at the Blyth Arena.
The call for help in last week's
Standard was answered by a
swarm of willing Ivcrkers, and
as we predicted, all of the work
was completed in just one
evening,
Last Sunday afternoon the :tie m-
bers of Morris District Orange
L. 0, L. attended a special ser-
vice in St, Andrew's Presbyterian
Church, Blyth. Owing to the ex-
treme heat of the day, the att-
Leather jackets
give protection
The fellow in the black leather -
jacket may be the safest inotorcy-
clist on the road according to the
Insurance Bureau of Canada. He
is certainly one of the most sen-
sible because his leather jacket
protects him from serious injury
in the event of an accident.
IBC, which represents most of
Canada's general insurance comp-
anies, recommends these safety
precautions fcr motorcyclists:
- always wear a helmet, and in-
sist that your passenger wears one,
- dress properly to ride a motor-
cycle. This means heavy clothing,
gloves and boots to protect your
arms and legs in case of a fall,
- wear goggles to avoid getting
particles of dirt in your eyes. ,
- be sure the seat and controls
of your motorcycle are adjusted
correctly to fit you,
- be sure all equipment on the
motorcycle is functioning prop-
erly; lights, brakes,
and hcrn,
- obey all traffic laws and
remain in your own lane at a
safe distance behind other
traffic,

Mr, Aubiey Toll's fine string
of heavy horses has again just
about accomplished but walking
away with the fair grounds at
Brandon, Manitoba, This is the
fourth straight year of showing
at the Manitoba Fair for the
Toll horses and they succeeded •
in winning just about every maj-
or event in the heavy horse
classes.
Work on the new Blyth Municip-
al Telephone System dial exch-
ange is progressing daily, and it
is hoped the entire changeover
will be completed within a year.
Many pupils and friends of a
former principal of the Blyth
Public School, Mr, Wilfred Mac -
Naughton, will be pleased to
learn of the success he is meeting
with as principal of the Grand
Bend Public School, when for
the third straight year nearly 100
percent of the total enrolment
of 310 passed with high grades.
Only four will have to repeat
their year.
Work on Highway 4 between
Blyth and Clinton, is progress-
ing steadily and should be
ready for paving within the
next few weeks.
On Friday, June 29, the pup-
ils of S. S. 1110, East Wawanosh,
presented their teacher, Mrs.
Aubrey Toll, with a lovely
table lamp, as a remembrance
of her four years of teaching
service in that school, She has
accepted a position as princi-
pal of the Walton Public
School.
Behind the Scenes • • •
by Keith Roulston
I was reading a column in the
Toronto Star by Fraser Kelly on
the weekend which send shivers
up my spine,
Mr. Kelly revealed there are
organized campaigns to con-
vince people that the country
is being taken over by subver-
sives and that Prime Minister
Trudeau is a Communist.
There is nothing new in these
claims, ofcourse. As I recall,
there were such accusation about
the Prime Minister in the last
election. But what makes the
blood run cold is his statement
that "several sensitive and in-
telligent figures in Ottawa
(are) deeply concerned with
subversion, although they have
stopped shot of accusing the
Prrime Minister directly". These
include Conservative M. P.
Perry Ryan, Conservative candi-
date Lubor Zink and Paul Hell-
yer, leader of Action Canada.
He goes on to tell of the new
wing of the John Birch Society
which has just been set up in
Toronto to carry the fight
against imagined -Communist s
from the U.S. to north of the
bcrder. The Birchers have put
out a book called "Canada: How
the Communists Took Control"
which calls former Prime Min-
ister Pearson "Red Mike" and
says Trudeau has a Communist
record more "Blatant than Cas-
tro's". It even brands Paul
Martin, government leader in
the Senate and fcrmer external
affairs minister, a Communist
for supporting medicare and
trying to "bring down the anti- ,
Communist Rhodesia.11
I saw a copy of this book my-
self a while ago, The captain
under one picture of soldiers in
the streets at the time of the
October Crisis in 1970, Indic-
ated that Trudeau put the i
troops in the streets to enforce
his Communist principals, The
irony was, that the troops were
putting down the F19 which was
a left-wing organization trying
to overthrow the Quebec govern-
ment.
My first reaction to the book
was to have a good chuckle, but
when I realized that many people
in the United States and our own
country were willing to believe
the preposterous story, I wasn't
in a laughing mood,
One would be a fool, of course,
if he didnot realize there are
people in this country who ,
would like to see the govern-
ment overthrown and replaced by
a socialist regime, I went through
college a few years back with
some very intelligent students,
who made no secret of the fact
that they were Communist, One
even made the fine distinction
by saying he was not a Commun-
ist cr a Marxist but a Trotsdeyite,
which was beyond my limited
knowledge of the socialist move-
ment,
But there is a big difference be-
tween a bunch of Red students and
professors and highly placed polit-
ical officials. Mr, Kelly calls the
situation an ugly undercurrent
"which could unleash a flood of a
abuse on the Prime Minister, if
it surfaces during the coming el-
ection,"
And here's betting it will, After
seeing how well the "Red scare"
campaign worked by the Davis
government wcrked in the last
provincial election, some oppos-
ition party members or their
supporters are bound to raise it
this time in regard to Trudeau.
It won't be Robert Stanfield or
respected members of his party
such as Bob McKinley, but it is
bound to come, no matter how
hard good men like these try
to keep it out of the fight.

That historic olf chain that
makes you feel safe as you wend
your way up Saltford Hill the
back way, into the town of God-
erich, is soon to be removed, to
help in the war effort. For your
information, the chain was
11, 000 feet long and weighted
14 tons. It should almost produce
a tank to help defeat Hitler. It
will be replaced by a new chain
weighing but half a ton, but
said to be stronger than the old
one.
