Speaker
from Japan
at United
Church'
Blyth United Church was fav-
oured Sunday morning with a
guest in the person of Dennis
Howlett, son of Rev. and Mrs.
Floyd Howlett of Hokkaido,
Japan.
Dennis spoke to the Sunday
School and in the Church Service,
Following the Service, there was
opportunity for questions,
Dennis grew up in Japan where
his parents are missionaries of
the United Church of Canada.
Last fall, Dennis came to Can-
ada and has just completed his
first year at York University.
This summer, he is doing social
work with. Senior Citizens in
Toronto as part of a Local Init-
iative's Project.
Last summer, Dennis worked
in Bangladesh with a group of
Japanese farmers who were spon-,
sored by the church to help the
people with their agriculture.
He spoke of the poverty in that
land, and that,it.is not enough
simplyy'. to give k�"ogle iso .,gulled �,.:,,
�'' hand-outs!.but that we: must'.
help them to help themselves.
He said, too, that we must_ also
do what we can to change the
political, social and economic
structures that foster poverty,
ignorance and injustice.
Health
proposal gets
silent
treatment
Approval of the building and
plu mb ing inspection syste m pro-
posed by the Huron County Hea-
lth Unit will not come quickly
if at all.
Hullett council joined the
list of local municipalities to
postpone judgement on the pro-
posal for a county -wide inspec-
tion system on a user -pays basis
as proposed by Dr, Frank Mills,
County Medical Officer of
Health, The initial budget for
the department would be $40,000.
Users would pay the cost of ;the
inspection at a rate that would
amount to about $300 for most
new houses,
East Wawanos'n council also
postponed decision on the pro-
posal . Blyth council took no
official action on the matter at
its May meeting though from an
informal discussion among coun-
ciIIors at the beginning of the
meeting, it seems certain they
are not likely to give it approval
unless there is a change of mind.
Several members felt the inspec- ,
tion system proposed is now be-
ing carried out on new buildings
anyway before National Housing
Authority mortgages win appro-
val.
W.I.convention
next week
In the Service, Dennis spoke
of "Sharing Bread", not only
the bread of the stomach but
the bread of life. He emphas-
ized "sharing". It is not eno-
ugh to give to others but we
must learn to receive from them.
God is at work everywhere, and
in responding to others recepti-
vely we are also opening our
life to Him who is the giver of
real life,

If this house doesn't sell fast it certainly won't be from
lack` of trying. The former Pearl Gidley house at the cor-
ner of Dinsley and Wilson Streets in Blyth is up for sale'
now as anyone who drives by can easily tell. The house
has been listed with fair different real estate agencies
and there are so many signs' around, itis almost hard to
see the house.

Council decision
has two sides
The' decision of Blyth "council to hold future meetings in
the clerk's office has both advantages and. -disadvantages.
'On the positive side,' it Will mean council will have -
ready access -to all the facilities the clerk's office offers. -
If they require information and the clerk has it on file, they
will be able to get it at once, -not have, to wait until the
clerk has time" to. leave' the meeting and go to the office
for the information. , -
On the other -hand, there is something ,dangerous here if
the council does riot show good judgement. .Council meetings
are at all times open to the public, even if many members
of _the public' don't "know this. - Council must make: provision
for the public at its meetings cr -it will be shirking its duties.
If there is no room for members of the public to comfortably
attend council sessions our system of local "government is in
trouble.
To' be truthful, the public has never shown a great deal of
interest in local government happenings, neither here in Blyth
or elsewhere. in small towns and rural municipalities. Because
of this lack of interest councils have often tended to with-
draw to locations comfortable to them but with little prov-
ision for spectators, Theymeet in the clerk's kitchen or a
back room of a townshibuilding, The meetings have the
air of a private club meeting, not a meeting where the
business of government goes on.
The Board of Education is equally guilty of this ignorance
of the taxpayer, They make little provision for visiting cit-
-izens and make it even harder for them to understand what
is'going on if they do show up.
Unwittingly, these elected officials are driving the final
nails in the coffin of local government. For government to
work, there must be an interested, informed public. Councils
must make citizens feel welcome at their meetings and- make
sure it is well known when these meetings will take place,
either through notices on bulletin boards or ads in local
papers.
Every provision must be made to involve the citizen in
decision making, even if he often doesn't seem the least
interested. If we do not make the extra effort, our system
of self-government is dead.
Exploitation project.
It's difficult, today, to think of a more misleading word'
than "development". One of the most monumental examples
of its mis-use must be in "James Bay Development Project",
hereafter called James Bay Exploitation Project.
Over 12 years at a cost of $6 -billion, the James Bay Explo-
itation Project would turn nearly one-fifth of Quebec (an area
1• times the size of the United Kingdom) into a hydro -electric
district, Five thousand square miles of land, occupied by
some of Canada's most independent Indians and Eskimos, would
be flooded by four giant dams.
d
th
and
The exploitation project was announced by Quebec Premier
Robert Bourassa at a political rally last year. Not until six
months later did he agree to meet for 15 minutes with repres-
entatives of the 5,000 Cree Indians and others who live in the s
affected area. No publicly available cost-benefitstudy of the
project has been carried out. A tiny ($30,000) study of the
project's effect on naturewas rushed through long after the
project was announced.
Much of the power would be guaranteed to the Americans.
Almost all of the profitable heavy construction equ ipment'
would be manufactured in the USA, making jobs ere.
Bourassa wants to ram into reality an ill -based election.
promise of 100,000 jobs, regardless of any other va
lues. The
James Bay Exploitation Project should be halted un it compre-
hensive studies of its total impact are carried out fully
debated.
Marsh Wcrld
Ducks Unlimited (Canada)
POTHOLE BLASTING — Dynamiting of potholes
in shallow marshes is one method used by Ducks
Unlimited to increase waterfowl production.
About 30 feet in diameter and deep enough to
retain water throughout the nesting season, they
are located at selected points in the marsh. Such
potholes provide additional shoreline and open
water area to a project, attracting more" pairs of
ducks to nest,

From my Winow
BY SHIRLEY J,. KELLER
The chicken pox is never
pleasant but when you are
infected at a time when every-
one else has exciting things to
do, the disease is twice as up-
setting. Our seven-year old is
just nicely over the dread "scou-
rge and it appears right now
that he'll be left with only one "
or two identifying marks.
The evening he broke out with
the tiny water blisters he was in
the care of his father. I had .
gone out to a littletheatre pro-
duction with a friend' and my
biggest and littlest boys had
spent the time together. In the
morning upon rising, my son
:flowed i�g;hts "itches". •
When I told him,I figured it
to be chicken pox, he quickly
and firmly explained that I
was wrong - dead wrong.
"Dad looked at 'em last night
and he didn't say they were chi-
cken pox," my son protested.
"Anyway, I heard about chicken
pox on "My Three Sons" and
they are flat, not bumpy like
mine."
With this, he stretched out
his little pocked hand in a flat,
steady motion.
"Well, I dont know, son," I
warned. "They sure look like
chicken pox to me."
"Don't tell me I have to go
to bed now," sighed my son, be-
lieving that to be a fate worse
than death.
I assured him that as long as
he was feeling well enough, he
might as well stay dressed and
circulating, but that he was for-
bidden to gooutdoors for a few
days. "
By later that day, there was
very little doubt about it. A
quick glance at his tummy and
back testified that he"indeed did
have the - malady... and despite
his fears, my son was quitecon-
tented to remain prone beneath
a big cover for hours on end.
By the second day, the word
was out all over the neighbour-
hood, Mothers were quickly ,
checking into their records to
by SHIRLEY J.
KELLER.
` We began to think 'about
sending him'back to `school,
mostly because he was feeling ,
so chipper and getting so bored -
at home,
Finally one morning, I tele-
phoned the school and asked
for some ruling on the quar-
antine time_ for chicken pox.
I explained most of the rash was
gone but that a few not -so- att-
ractive scabs remained here and
there. .
The word Wasn't encouraging.
It was simply that while school
was aware that there was no
chance now fcr infecting oth
children (that always -happens
before anyone:knows there is
any danger),' some parents could
get very pertue
rbed":if 'a scabb"
tot satin the same classroom
er
d
as
their children, so to avoid any
unnecessary unpleasantness, it
seemed wise to keep the affected
one at home just a few more days.
So we complied with the 7
school's directive. 'It was a
reasonable request, I suppose.
Having taught school myself
many years ago, I know that
moms and dads may well be
unduly concerned at times for
their offspring but 'even so, the,
teacher usually gets caught in
the middle.
So the most junior Keller re-
mained at home.
Atlast, arrangements were
made with the principal to send
our boy back to school, go thro-
ugh an inspection line and fin-
ally, if given the seal of approv-
al, attend classes with his pals.
When by 10 a. m, we'd heard
nothing from the school or our
son, we imagined he was rein-
stated in good favor.
That evening when he retur 7,�
ned from school; 'his eyes'were
as large as two saucers.
"Boy," he told us in gasps.
"I just got over the chicken
pox in time. One more day at
home and I wouldn'thave been
able to.go on the class trip.- We
saw fungus . , , and I was the
only one with some."
People movers coming
Cars are crushing our cities
and fouling our air. Now new.
"people movers" are bypassing
the crush.
The single automobile takes up
a lot of spacet_gives off a cloud
of pollution and 'carries only 1.3
people during the rush hours.
One way to make our car sick
cities healthier is funds to support
mass transit; Other types of transit
are getting off the drawing
boards too.
One intriguing "people mover",
which is personal as well as
pollution -free is, on the tracks and
being tested this year in traffic -
clogged Morgantown, West
Virginia. Government-sponsored
demonstrations of the model have
already been successful. Moving
electrically on tracks, small
eight -seat cars operate on demand
like a horizontal elevator. The
rubber -tire cars have huge picture
windows on all sides and eight
contoured seats, There is also
room for 13 standees to cling
to poles.
With demonstration models,
engineers have been on board to
man a safety brake called a
"chicken switch". But in regular
operation there will be no crew-
men aboard the cars, Everything
will be handled by a computer
at a central station and by an
engineer there.
Although the cars will move
at a rate of 20 to 30 miles per
hour, experts say they will cut
down one hour's•traveling time
in the congested city to five
minutes.' The'difference is
that the "people movers" have
no traffic to contend with on
their own tracks. •
confirm that their children had
already had chicken pox. Un-
fcrtunately, the babysitter's son -
was one of the unlucky playmates
of my little boy who was dest-
ined to contract the illness with-
in 15 to 20 days. or so.
%lase children who had already
had the disease came to call on
the sick. But they weren't wel-
comed by our son. He remained
scrunched under the covers, ob- -
viously embarrassed to -have them
see him in such a spotty condition.
More than one little boy'visited
for an hour or more with what •
appeared to be a rolled Up-bla-
nket
pbla-
nket on the chesterfield.
But as with all childhood dis-
eases, the -sickness left. All
that really remained was a few
scabs-.... great, huge scabs,
some of them .... mostly on
his face and in his hair.

Council decision
has two sides
The decision of Blyth council to hold future meetings in
the clerk's office has both advantages -and disadvantages.
On the positive side,` it will mean council will have
ready access to all the facilities the clerk's office "offers.
If they require information and the clerk ,has it on file, they
will be able to get it at once, not have; to wait' until the
clerk has time to leave- the meeting and go to the office
for the information. r •
On the other hand, there is something dangerous here if
the council. does not show good- judgement. Council meetings
are at all times open to the public, even. if many members
of the public don't,know this. Council must make provision
for the public at its meetings or it will be shirking its duties.
If there is no room for members of the public to comfortably
attend council sessions our system of local government is in
trouble, •
To' be truthful, the public has never shown a great deal of
interest in local government happenings, neither here in Blyth
or elsewhere in small towns and rural municipalities. Because
of this lack of interest councils have often tended to with-
draw to locations comfortable to them but with little Prov-
o spectators, Theymeet in the clerk'skitchen or a
isinfarapcttors, t n
back room of a township building, The meetings have the "
air of a private club meeting, not a meeting where the
business of.' government goes on.
The Board of Education is equally guilty of this ignorance
of the taxpayer, They make little provision for visiting cit-
izens and make it even harder for them to understand what
is •going on if they do show up.
Unwittingly, these elected officials are driving thefinal
nails in the coffin of local government, For government to
work, there must be an interested, informed public. Councils
must make citizens feel welcome at their meetings and make
sure it is well known when these meetings will take place,
either through notices on bulletin boards or ads in local
papers.
Every provision must be made to involve the citizen in
decision making, even if he often doesn't seem the least
interested. If we do not make the extra effort, our system
of self-government is dead.
Exploitation project
It's difficulh•today, to'think of a more misleading word'
than "development". One of the most monumental examples
of its mis-use must be in "James Bay Development Projecv',
hereafter called James Bay Exploitation Project.
Over 12 years at a cost of $6 -billion, the James Bay Explo-
itation Project would turn nearly one-fifth of Quebec (an area
11 times the size of the United Kingdom) into a hydro -electric
district. Five thousand square miles of land, occupied by
some of Canada's most independent Indians and Eskimos, would
be flooded by four giant dams.
The exploitation project was announced by Quebec Premier
Robert Bourassa at a political rally last year. Not until six
months later did he agree to meet for 15 minutes with repres-
entatives of the 5,000 Cree Indians and others who live in the
affected area. No publicly available cost -benefit study of the
project has been carried out. A tiny ($30,000) study of the
project's effect on naturewas rushed through long after the
project was announced.
Much of the power would be guaranteed to the Americans,
Almost all of the profitaple heavy construction equipment'
would be manufactured in the USA, making jobs there.
Bourassa wants to ram into reality an ill -based election.
promise of 100,000 jobs, regardless of any other values. The
James Bay Exploitation Project should be halted until compre-
hensive studies of its total impact are carried out and fully
debated.

Marsh World
Ducks Unlimited (Canada)
POTHOLE BLASTING — Dynamiting of potholes
in shallow marshes is one method used by Ducks
Unlimited to increase waterfowl production.
About 30 feet in diameter and deep enough to
retain water throughout the nesting season, they
are located at selected points in the. marsh. Such
potholes provide additional shoreline and open
water area to a project, attracting more pairs of
ducks to nest.

BY SHIRLEY J. KELIER •
The chicken pox is never
pleasant but when you are
infected at a time when every-
one else has exciting things to
do, the disease is twice as up-
setting. Our seven-year old is
just nicely over the dread scou-
rge and it appears right now
that he'll be. left with only one
or two identifying marks. •
The evening he broke out with
the tiny water blisters he was in
the care of his father. I had •
gone out to a little'theatre pro-
duction with a friend' and my •
biggest and littlest boys had
spent the time together. In the
morning upon rising, my son
:`towed itches". •
When I told him.I figured it.
to be chicken pouc, he quickly
and firmly explained that I
Was wrong - dead wrong.
"Dad looked at tem last night
and he didn't say they were chi-
cken pea," my son protested.
"Anyway, I heard about chicken
pox on "My Three Sons" and
they are flat, not bumpy like
mine, rr
With this, he stretched out
his little pocked hand in a flat,
steady motion. , ..
"Well, I dont know, son," I
warned. "They sure look like
chicken pox to me."
"Don't tell me I have to go
to bed now," sighed my son, be-
lieving that to be a fate worse
than death.
I assured him that as long as
he was feeling well enough, he
might as well stay dressed and
circulating, but that he was for-
bidden to go outdoors for a few
days. '
By later that day, there was
very little. doubt about it. A
quick glance at his tummy and
back testified that he indeed did
have the "maladv... and despite
his fears, my .s on was quite con-
tented to remain prone beneath
a big cover for . hours on end.
By the second day, the word
was out all over the neighbour-
hood, Mothers were quickly
checking into their records to
confirm that their children had
already had chicken pox. Un-
fortunately, the babysitter's son
was one of the unlucky playmates
of. my little boy who was dest-
ined to contract the illness with-
in 15 to 20 days. or so.
Those children who had already
had the disease carne to call on
the sick. But they weren't wel-
comed by our son, He remained
scrunched under the covers, ob-
viously embarrassed to have the m
see him in such a spotty condition:
More than one little boy visited
for an hour or more with what
appeared to be' a rolled u p bla-
nket on the chesterfield,
But as with all'childhooddis-
eases, the sickness left. A11
that really remained was a few
scabs .... great, huge scabs,
some of them .... mostly on
his face and in his hair.
by SHIRLEY J.
KELLER,
• We began to think about
sending him'' back to `school,
mostly because he was feeling
so chipper and getting so bored
at home, -
Finally one morning, I tele-•
phoned the school and asked
for some ruling on the quar-
antine time for chicken pox.
I explained most of the rash was
gone but that a few not -so- att-
ractive scabs remained here and
there.
The word wasn't encouraging.
It was simply that while school
was aware that there was no
chance now for infecting other
children (that always happens
before anyone knows there is",
any danger), some parents could
get very perturbed if -a scabbed
tot sat in the same classroom as
their children, so to avoid any
unnecessary unpleasantness, it
seemed wise to keep the affected
one at home just a few more days.
So we complied with the
school's directive. It was a
reasonable request, I suppose.
Having taught school myself
many years ago, I know that
moms and -dads. may well be:
unduly concerned at times for
their offspring but even so, the
teacher usually gets caught in
the middle,
So the most 'junior Keller re-
mained at hone.
At last, arrangements were
Made with the principal to send
our boy back to school, go thro-
ugh an inspection line and fin-
ally, if given the seal o f approv-
al, attend classes with his pals.
When by 10 a. m. we'd heard
nothing from the school or our
son, we imagined he was rein-
stated in good favor.
That' evening +when` he retur ,r, ,,7a
ned from school, his eyes were
as large as two'saucers,
"Boy," he told us in gasps.
"I, just got over the chicken
pox in time, One more day at
home and"I wouldn't have been
able to:go on the class trip.: We
saw .fungus ... and .I was the
only one with some."
People movers coming
Cars are crushing our cities
and fouling our air. Now new
"people movers" are bypassing
the crush.
The single automobile takes up
a lot of space) gives off a cloud
of pollution and carries only 1.3
people during the rush hours.
One way to make our car sick
cities healthier is funds to support
mass transit, Other types of transit
are getting off the drawing
boards too.
One intriguing "people mover",
which is personal as well as
pollution -free is. on the tracks and
being tested this year in traffic-
clogged Morgantown, West
Virginia. Government-sponsored
demonstrations of the model have
already been successful. Moving
electrically on tracks, small
eight -seat cars operate on demand
like a horizontal elevator. The
ThtIyth
ontano•
weeILV
newspaper
assoclat!nn
rubber -tire cars have huge picture
windows on all sides and eight
contoured seats. There is also
room for 13 standees to cling
to poles.
With demonstration models,
engineers have been on board to
man a safety brake called a
"chicken switch", But in regular
operation there will be no crew-
men aboard the cars. Everything
will be handled by a computer
at a central station and by an
engineer there.
Although the cars will move
at a rate of 20 to 30 miles per
hour, experts say they will cut
down one hourrs.traveling time
in the congested city to five
minutes, The'difference is
that the "people movers" hive
no traffic to contend with on
their own tracks."

"SEEDTIME AND HARVEST"
-.The. whole country side reflects the wonder and beauty of
awakening spring.' Fields and' gardens are being tidied and
'crops., are., being sown, Seedtime is upon us.
Our Lord tells the story, of a man going out to sow. (Mark
4), The details of the story,; the pathway, the rocky ground,
the .thorns, the bountiful harvest from the good soil are fam-. •
iliar to everyone. The purpose of Jesus was to encourage those
who were beginning to feel despair. There was increasing
hostility to Jesus (Mark 3.6). Sometimes His preaching seemed
to be ineffectual (Mark 6.5) and there was increasing desert-
ion from the ranks of His followers (John 6,66). The point
that is made in the parable is the contrast between seedtime
and harvest. The vision the disciple must have is the vision
of Harvest. Only then does the work of seedtime itselfand
all that follows, the weeding, the hoeing, the cultivating,
become a bearable and worthwhile occupation.
The same kind of contrast 'is evident in the lives of all.
There are those individuals, families, communities, whose
lives seem characterised by. constant friction, bickering,
argument. And those with whom warmth, love, friendship
make life much easier., There are those who are so self-
centred that they have no time for anyone 'else, and those
who are always thoughtful, sympathetic and concerned,
`There are those who are full of their own aches and pains
and are constantly grumbling 'and grousing, and those. whose
afflictions are never displayed and who seem to be' cheerful
in the face of adversity.
The seed is being sown, the Word is indeed being pro-
claimed. The vision of harvest makes, the discipleship worth-
while for the believer.

There appears to be a general
and growing concern about
the quality of education these
days. Not only are teachers
concerned, and they are, but
students and parents are
beginning to feel that they are
being short-changed,
A couple of letters to the
editors of two daily papers
recently were revealing,
In one, a university stu-
dent stated that he had read
a 2,000 -word essay written
by a friend, who was an hon-
our student. In the essay,
there was one (I) sentence
which did not have a spelling
or grammar error, And that
was the sentence in -which he
repeated the professor's
topic.
In the other letter, a girl
who dropped out of school
three years ago because of
the rigidity of the system,
was flaming mad. She
returned to Grade 12 this
year•and discovered, as she
put it "that education had
disappeared'in the interim."
This young lady said flatly
that while teachers used to
teach for the average in the
class, they are now teaching
toward the poorest students,
with the keen and bright ones
left to fend for themselves.
In her opinion, standards had
dropped drastically in three
years.
There are few-teachers.Y �.
who would not agree with her
on the last point. Adminis-
trators and "educationists",
whatever they are, right up
to the minister, blandly
assure the public, via the
media, that standards have
not been lowered,
Perhaps they should take
off their rose-coloured
glasses and take a good, clear
look at reality, But they have
managed to wrap themselves
in such a fog of educational
jargon that they wouldn't
know reality unless it came
up and bit them.
What's happened? Maybe
I'm prejudiced, but 1 don't
think the fault lies with the
teachers. To my definite
knowledge, they are working
harder than ever, under
steadily worsening condi-
tions,
They are teaching as
many as two more classes a
day than they were three
years ago, They are doing
more of the unpleasant and
uneducational chores than
they did, Such a one is
"trough patrol" as some
teachers call cafeteria super-
vision. The name is not inac-
curate,
A few years ago, super-
vising a students' dance was
an extra chore, but few
teachers really minded it.
One chatted with the stu-
dents, deplored their taste in
music, but felt that a good
time was being had by all.
Everybody was dressed
up and happy. The lights in
the gym were turned down
but not out. There might be
the odd case of a kid smoking
pot or slightly under the
influence but they were
rareties; A regular Sunday
school picnic.

Like a cemetery,
Someone has thrown up
again in the boys' washroom.
Two grim -faced cops stand
by the -entrance, A teenage
girl is caught rum -running
not one, but six mickeys of
rye.
In the good old days,
years ago, a young buck
could wear his own mickey
in this hip pocket, covered by
his jacketf Today, his pants
are so tight he couldn't get
anything in that pocket so he
has some little girl take it in
for him. But six!
I'm drifting away from my
topic, but not entirely. The
defiance of rules, the demand
for new "rights" is all part
of the school scene today.
It's a curious mixture of
apathy and mindless
defiance.
I sound as though I'm
blaming the kids. I'm not.
They're human. They'll take
what they can get and
demand more. They're a
pretty decent iut, on the
whole, But what girl won't
wear hip-huggers if she's
allowed to wear jeans, or a
blouse slit to the navel if she
doesn't have to wear a bra?
What young man of sixteen...
wo uldn't like to have a crack,,

No, the real culprit is'
neither teachers nor kids, It
is the little emire-builders in
the system..They arerso far
away from the classroom,
and the taxpayers, that they
have acquired a god
complex.
They've never been in a

How, we've ruined schools
'and students
Saturday night in- Dodge
City. A darkened gym except
for the stage where four or
five baboons caper and
scream incomprehensibles to
the accompaniment of a vol-
ume of sound that would
make a boiler factory sound
like a cemetery,
Someone has thrown up
again in the boys' washroom.
Two grim -faced cops stand
by the entrance, A teenage
girl is caught rum -running
not one, but six mickeys of
rye,
In the good old days,
years ago, a young buck
could wear his own mickey
in ibis hip pocket, covered by
his jacket -.Today, his pants
are so tight he couldn't get
anything in that pocket so he
has some little girl take it in
for him. But six!
I'm drifting away from my
topic, but not entirely. The
defiance of rules, the demand
for new "rights" is all part
of the school scene today.
It's a curious mixture of
apathy and mindless
defiance.
1 sound as though I'm
blaming the kids, I'm not,
They're human. They'll take
what they can get and
demand more, They're a
pretty decent iot, on the
whole. But what girl won't
wear hip-huggers if she's
allowed to wear jeans, or a
blouse slit to the navel if she
doesn't have to wear a bra?
What young man of sixteen -
wouldn't like to have a crack.k
at growing a beard? ��..
No, the real culprit is
neither teachers nor kids. It
is the little empire -builders in
the system..They arei,so far
away from the classroom,
and the taxpayers, that they
have acquired a god -
complex,
They've never been in a
classroom, or not for years,
' And if they are to preserve
and expand their empires,
j they must appear to be doing
something, So they scratch
each others backs, come up
with revolutionary ideas that
were stale forty years ago,
land hide behind a squid -like
emission of gobbledygook
such as "input", "feed-
back", "communications",
"concepts" and "individual
needs,'
These are the barnacles
on the good ship Education,
and unless she is careened
and they are scraped off,
ruthlessly, they're likely to
sink her,

Report irOM 0110011S Park on
BY MURRAY GAUNT, M.P.
(HURON -BRUCE)
The Select Committee of the
Ontario Legislature investigat-
ing circumstances surrounding
the construction of a new Head
Office Building for Ontario Hydro
ctitlined this week the six'quest-
ions which should be answered in
the investigation.
The first was whether the terms
of the agreement between Hydro
and Canada Square under which
;Hydro will become a tenant in
the 19 storey tower at an annual
rent of $4,116, 424 and assume
ownership in 30 years for $1,
were financially and economic-
ally sound.
The second was whether the
agreement provided benefits and
advantages which Justify the dec-
ision of Hydro to abandon previ-
ous plans for construction of a
building owned and f inanced
by Ontario Hydro. The aband-
onment cast Hydro $1,485,000
in architectural fees.
The third question was 'Did
Ontario Hydro take all steps
necessary to obtain competit-
ive proposals111
The fourthIlifth and sixth
questions were: 'Did Members
of the Ontario Hydro Electric
Commission have their judge-
ment in any way respecting the
agreement for the new Head Of-
fice Building affected by any
consideration other than what
was in the best interests of On-
tario Hydro and the people of
OntarioHydro?"
Should the agreement have
been submitted for consideration
on a policy basis to the Minister ,
reporting to the House for Hydro?
Who was the person who alle-
ged that there was a warning
delivered by someone to one' of
the unsuccessful bidders that if
he did not be quiet he would
never get another Government
contract, and was such a warn-
ing delivered?
The Committee will be assis-
ted by Counsel Richard Shibley
a chartered accountant and a
junior lawyer.
Prime Development lands in
municipalities in the area of
t1 still secret site of a planned
new town near Lake Erie have
been abruptly frozen by the On-
tario Government,
The land in Haldemand and -
Norfolk Counties includes
14,000 acres now tieing devel-,
aped by a -private developer.
That Sales Tax increase has
now become law.
According to Opposition
spokesmen the Sales Tax in-
crease will cost the average
family between $35-40 a year
not $5.27 a family as suggested
by the Government.
The Ontario Government has
announced a ten year construct-
ion programme for health scie-
nces centres at the University
of Toronto and four other Uni-
versities but made it clear there
will be substantially less money
available than Universities exp-
ected,
The announcement lifted a
freeze the Government imposed
last year on renovation and buil-
ding at the centres and the tea-
ching hospitals affiliated with
the Universities.
