Although the municipal mill rate went up 12 mills to 27.06 for farm and residential and 31.31 for commercial and business, taxes will be lower thanks to the county rate which is down 14.88 mills to 5.05 mills. Other rates are: elementary school, 14.16 and 15,73 mills; secondary school, 13.95 and 15,50; Huron -Perth Separate School, 23.98 mills; Bruce -Grey Separate School, 10.15; police village rate 15 mills and $13 per household or business for garbage pickup and 8.89 mills for Dungannon residents for street lights. The rates were brought in at a special meeting of council on August 13. At the same meeting the clerk was instructed to write to the Ministry of the Environment to set up a meeting with officials over the West Wawanosh dump. At the regular meeting of council on August 6, the tender of MacWylie Construction, Wroxeter was accepted for the loading and hauling of pit -run gravel at 33 cents and 48 cents per cubic yard. A letter was received from the St, Helens Women's Institute regarding dogs in the township. The clerk was instructed to reply that the council had already taken action to bring dogs under control. Mn and Mrs. Cecil Cranston were present at the meeting to discuss fencing on their farm adjacent to road construction on sideroad 18-19, Concession 7. A by-law was passed compensating farmers for damages to fences during construction. Achievement day looks like fun . The annual achievement day for local 4-H clubs looks like fun for the whole community this weekend in Blyth. After the success of the first achieve- ment day, pork barbecue and fun day last year, the Blyth Agricultural Society decided to try it again and so the second achievement day will be held Saturday. The judging of the 4-H beef and dairy clubs will begin the day's activities with all exhibits to be in place by 1 p.m. The horse and pony 4-H judging will take place at 3 p.m. But there will be plenty of other entertainment, The tube or tire race will take place at 1 p.m. followed by the basket race at 1:20 and the nail driving contest at 2 p.m. At 2:20 there will be a barrel rolling contest and at 2:40 a wheel barrow race, A sack race will take place from 2:40 to 3 p.m. and a walking race at 3 p.m. There will be a chuckwagon race at 3:20 and an egg throwing contest at 3:40. There will be a watermelon or pie eating competition at 4 p.m. Those who want to work up an appetite for the barbecue at 5:30 might want to enter the greased pig contest at 5 p.m. And at 5:30 people will have their chance to take their revenge on some local community leaders in a little item called the "chicken's revenge" in which local figures will poke their head through a hole iu a board and hope that no one can hit them with an egg. The highlight of the day of course will be the pork barbecue from 5:30 to 7:30, tie S BLYTH, ONTARIO PRICE: 15 CENTS VOLUME 84 - NO.33 WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1974.

Crash kills Belgrave woman A two -vehicle crash on Thursday took the life of a 51 -year-old Belgrave area woman. Marion McBurney, wife of Allan McBurney, RR 5, Wingham was on her way to work about 3 p.m. on Thursday and was driving on the 10th concession of East Wawanosh when her car was in collision with a gravel truck driven by Alan J. Shumacher of Mildmay. The collision took place at sidcroad 36.37. Mrs. McBurney died at the scene of the accident. Mr, Schumacher st;ffered minor injuries. Both were alone at the time of the accident. Charges, say the Wingham Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police, are pending. Mrs. McBurney was a native of Ripley. She married Mr. McBurney in Ripley on Dec. 26, 1962. Surviving besides her husband are three children, Danny, Ricky and April, all at home. Her father, Russel White of San Jose, California also survives as does one sister Mrs, Dave (Isabelle) MacDonald of Goderich. She received her education in Ripley before training as a registetzd nurse at London's Victoria Hospital. She was a member of Knox Presbyterian Church, Belgrave, and the Women's Missionary Society. The funeral was held from the S.J. Walker Funeral Home, Wingham on August 17, 1974 at 3:30 p.m. The Rev, Barry Passmore officiated with interment in Brandon Cemetery, Belgrave. Serving as pallbearers were Clarence Hanna, Sydney Thompson, John Nixon, Gordon McBurney, Bob Armitage and Gary Barbour. Flowerbearers were John Scott, Calvin Nixon and Roddy MacDonald, School board tries to hold line on education costs The Huron County Board of Education has "done reasonably well" in keeping the cost of education down, board chairman Cayley Hill said Monday following the release by the board of its 1974-75 salary agreements with its teaching and non -teaching staff. Mr. Hill said 12,5 per cent pay increases for the county's 350 elementary school teachers and 12.8 per cent increases for 265 secondary school teachers will not alter from its current level the proportion of money the board spends on salaries. The same, he said, applies to salaries for non -teaching staff. The 1974 budget of $12.5 million allocated about $8 million for salaries. Precise figures on what the salary increases will mean in terms of added board expenditures arc difficult to predict at this time, he said. Flower show set for Tuesday Everything will be coining up roses.,. and mums and zinias and glads... when the Blyth Horticultural Society holds its flower show Tuesday. The event will be held in Memorial Hall and will also include a tea. It will take place from 3 to 5 p.m. in the afternoon and 7 to 9 p.nt. Prizes will be offered in many categories for local gardeners. A silver collection will be taken to help defray costs. The board waited until Monday to 'release a list of all its salary negotiations which have taken place over the last several months, he said, to prevent information on individual settlements from affecting other negotiations, Under the new one-year agreement, elementary school teachers in the lowest salary category will receive $6,200 annually increasing to $8,650 in six years. The highest salary an elementary teacher without a university degree can receive is $7,200 increasing to $13,050 after 11 years. Secondary school teachers in the lowest category will receive $7,770 annually, increased to $14,400 after 11 years. The highest category will receive $9,400 ,annually, increasing to $18,400 after 14 years. The board also negotiated contracts with the Service Employees International Union, representing custodians in its 12 largest schools. Under a two-year contract the men will receive wage increases of 26 per cent. Employees with Tess than - a year of service will receive $3.45 an hour .with an increase to $3.80 an hour June ,1, 1975, Experienced employees will receive $3.70 an hour with an increase to $4.05 an hour by June 1, 1975. Clerical staff in school's and at the board administration centfe,`ret esentcd by, the Canadian Union \of ��Ptiblic; \Emtiloyees, received a 212 per \lcetlt\'`iay `increase retroactive to Jan. 1; 1974.4n`, the first'' ear of the contract, salaries range from $4,300 annually to $5,900, increasing to a range of $4,650 to $6,350 the second year. Non-union secretarial employees were granted increases of 10.3 per cent over one year. Salaries range from $5,300 to $7,200. Chief custodians at the board's five secondary schools received 11.3 per cent increases for a range of $9,200 • $10,100. Hall future still contemplated No firm decision on whether or not to go ahead with repairs to Blyth Memorial Hall came out of a meeting of council on Thursday night. The meeting of council along with Art Clark, engineer for the project and Dan Stuckey of Venture Construction in Wingham was to consider the Venture bid to remove and replace the roof at a cost of $30,000 plus crane rental fees, No decision on the matter was taken while councillors investigate previous projects undertaken by the company. Council has until September to agree to the present bid, One councillor indicated council was looking on the bid favourably. Besides the crane rental there will also be the additional costs of engineering fees while supervising the building.

WITH ADRIAN VOS Last year the number of people in the world increased by 76 million. This means of course that the worlds farmers have to produce food for these additional people. This year the increase will be greater and every year after that, until the world is saturated with people, Even now, one disastrous crop in any of the five major grain producing countries will mean widespread hunger throughout the poorer world and skyrocketing prices for the rest. One cynic told Rocky tells history of MVCA This week Rocky would like to give you a brief description and history of the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. It all began with an Order -in - Council on Sept. 6, 1951 which established the Middle Maitland Conservation Authority, includ- ing only a part of the Maitland River Watershed. In order to offer a more complete and effective conservation program, a second Order -in -Council in Jan., 1962, established the present Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. MVCA is presently responsible for promoting proper manage- ment within 984 square miles, including 29 different member municipalities and 14 Conserva- tion Areas. Major conservation aims at MVCA are water quality and pollution control, proper land use and management, wildlife preser- vation, flood control, provision of recreational areas, reforestation and public relations and educa- tional programs. Maitland • Valley is one of 39 Conservation Authorities in the province of Ontario.

He stated that it will be as it always has been and people will die by the millions, until a balance between food production and people has been reached. It's ghastly to contemplate but as long as better birth control is not used it appears that my cynic will be right. By the way, he himself has five children. As long as we continue to cover, our agricultural land with cities and highways and shopping plazas, we hasten the time this will come to pass, by slaughtering the goose that lays the golden eggs. ********* Hailed as a great step downward for the farmer is the inclusion of Ontario corn on the Canadian futures market. 1 sincerely hope that the optimistic are right. The futures market has been a very useful marketing tool. The experiences of the Chicago futures market in the last two years leaves me with some doubts of it's continuous useful- ness. Speculators left Wall Street in large numbers and bought paper soyabcans. In the selling and reselling a single bushel of product changing hands. The soyabean producer made no money and soyabean user had to pay exorbitant prices. Will the same thing happen with corn? 'today's prices seem to indicate a trend in that direction. Let's hope that the futures market doesn't become a tool for a permanent ripoff on farmer and consumer, LET US MAKE YOUR OLD FURNITURE BETTER THAN NEW! .For a free estimate and a look at oar newest samples of materials --CALL CLARK UPHOLSTERY "Put Your Upholstering Ph, 523.4272 R.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST 21, 1974. Editorial Consumerism may backfire Economist Bruce Milestone in a column in the London Free Press on Monday pointed up the role of the neW militant consumerism on the economy and how it is partly responsible for the current economic problems. Since Ralph Nader started his campaign against unsafe cars several years ago the consumer movement has just grown and grown. Many of the things Nader and his followers have said needed to be said, but like all such movements this one has gone to extremes and in many cases now is making a noise to just hear itself heard. it is working to perpetuate itself. The movement now has a good deal of political clout. As Mr. Whitestone pointed out: "Governments everywhere seem to be more concerned with the consumers in our society than with the producers, so the consumers are calling the tune. Prices have been frozen in many cases (milk, bread and gasoline in Canada, for example) and opposition parties here and elsewhere fail to inspire long-term confidence by suggesting that profits have risen excessively in many instances, such as food retailers, banks and oil companies." it's the kind of thinking that led the N.D.P. to say interest rates should be pegged at six per cent; the kind of thinking led - the Conservatives to promise prices would be frozen but not wages; the kind of thinking says you can have your cake and cat it too. But you can't. Someone has to pay, and in the long run it may be the consumer. Like it or not, this country depends on profit. Until Canada becomes a socialist state we will still depend on the business man to take the initiative to create a business and thus create the goods we need and the jobs we need. Only an idiot, however, will create a business without the prospect of making a decent profit, and this country is running a little short on idiots of that sort. Consumers have scared businessmen to the point where they are reluctant to invest in new plants and equipment, As a result we have not been able to produce goods as fast as they are required. As a result the price has gone up on nearly everything. As a result, we arc in a steeply inflationary period and more pressure than ever has been put on the businessman. As a result we may be facing an inflation and thousands of consumers may suddenly be on the unemployed line. It May be a stiff price to pay for consumerism. A needed spokesman Sometimes an important segment of society embraces an idea so strongly that it is hard for any other point of view to be heard. These are dangerous times. They are especially dangerous times when the segment of society that embraces the idea is the media. For the past several years now abortion has become something of a scared cow among the liberal -minded men and women who dominate the written and spoken media in Canada, A woman should have the right to command her own body, they say in their magazines, on the radio and over television. There should be abortion on demand they say from the rostrum of meeting halls, from university lecture desks and in the daily newspapers. Those who do not support relaxed abortion laws begin to wonder if they are alone in their belief. If you are alone in your belief might not you be wrong? Probably the impression that the vast majority is in favour of freer abortion laws is entirely wrong. Probably the great majority of people who believe otherwise have simply not been heard because of the predominance of pro -abortionists on all the influential information sources. Probably the lack of vocal anit-abortion sentiment has left government in a vaccuum where it hears only one side of the story. Such would seem to be the case in the furor raised over the stand taken by Justice Minister Otto Lang against lax application of current abortion laws by hospitals. Reading the letter to the editor column of the newspapers it would seem Mr. Lang has a great deal of support among the "silent majority". It's about time this group had a spokesman so it, too, can be heard. Tough being big guy Canadians, overshadowed as we are by the massive power of thg United States, sometimes are a little envious at the influence of that nation. This week we're seeing the other side of the coin. So often we see the power of the U.S. as something that makes life easier, but this week we're seeing the problems of being a big power. The U.S. is being berated from all sides, but particularly by the Greeks by not becoming involved in the war on Cyprus after Turkey invaded the island. It proves that when you're a major power you just can't win. Short years ago the U.S. was being blasted around the world for getting involved in a war in Vietnam where it was said the U.S. had no business. Now, in another war where surely the U.S. had no business either, they are being blamed because they didn't get involved. Greeks on Cyprus killed the U.S, embassador. Greeks in Greece protested what they called the support of Turkey given by the U.S. because it didn't intervene in the fighting. Greeks in the U.S. demonstrated in front of President Gerald Ford. Strangely, no Greek seemed to protest the fact that Greece didn't intervene. For the sake of world peace, of course, we should be thankful that Greece didn't enter the war, but in fairness for the U.S, it seems ridiculous that the Greeks should get mad because another country refused to do their fighting for them. It's one more confused chapter in a very confusing story. The Greeks in a way are getting just what they deserve since it was the Greek -instigated overthrow of President Makarios that created the whole problem. And it was Greek mistreatment of the Turk minority on Cyprus that caused Turkey to invade in the first place. But Turkey has extended it's foothold on the island beyond reason rather than sitting at the peace table. It's a case where there seems to be no rights, only a lot of wrongs. If anyone is guiltless, on the surface at least (since one never knows what dirty tricks the C.I.A. may have been pulling), it would seem to be the U.S. Yet they are the ones taking the blame. Strangely, no'one seems to be blaming Russia, also one of the big powers, for not stepping in to stop Turkey. Such is the price one has to pay for being a big power. Bill Smiley Four kittens and a shoe Once upon a time, I really enjoyed shopping of any kind, Most women, I believe, rather enjoy it, especially for clothes. She detests it. Therefore, she'd hand me a list as long as a foot, and off I'd go to the supermarket. Walking into that air-conditioning on a swelter- ing summer day was like going for a cool swim off a red-hot beach, Picking up your empty grocery cart was like getting into a boat to go fishing, or finding an empty cornucopia to fill, Then there was the pleasant, leisurely stroll through the vast maze of goodies. Past the vegetable counter, where the contents were sprayed with water to make them look "garden - fresh", Poking through the meat counter, with the red light overhead to make the meat look fresher. Along the frozen -food section, where I always did some wild impulse buying, like fiddleheads or fresh shrimp in a gourmet sauce. Into the fruit section, where I'd snatch up a basket of apples that looked as though they came from the Garden of Eden and tasted like wet tissue. Or grab a bag of oranges that looked as though they'd just been plucked off a tree and had about as much juice in them (and a lot more seeds) as a wizened little old lady of 94. Pondering over the cheese counter and selecting a ripe Camembert, forgetting the cheese slices which were on the list. Then there were the delightful personal encounters, The bowing and stepping back and smiling when you almost ran into a little old lady with her cart. Then making friends with sticky babies riding in the baskets. The brief interchange with a friend and the inevitable, "We muss get togeth- Those were the days er one of these days." The polite friendly clerks who would gallop a quarter -mile up and down the aisles to find you one small item you couldn't locate. And finally, a pleasant chit chat with the cashier, and the cheery willingness of the packers, the boys who put your stuff in bags and then carried it to your car, even in a blizzard, refusing a tip, once, then taking it with thanks. Those 'were the days. But they're gone. Oh, the same cruddy moodmusic comes over the speakers. The signs and banners are there, more mislead- ing than ever, But by gosh, the price is NOT right, the service is lousy, and the old courtesy and leisureliness is a thing of the past. The vegetables are still hosed down, but now the customer is being hosed as well. Fifty cents for a head of lettuce?

You might as well be in the Sahara looking for an oasis as in a supermarket looking for a clerk. There seems to be a big cut-back on staff. Hit for the door with a full shopping cart on a busy Friday or Saturday afternoon and two of the five or six check-out counters will be closed. You can stand in line for half an hour. The cheery boys who used to do the packing are almost non-existent, and you're lucky if they put the groceries in your cart, let alone take it to your car. The cashiers are as friendly as computers. Inside the store, don't turn your back on that sweet little old lady you once exchanged smiles and apologies with. She'll run you down from behind with sixty pounds of groceries, trying to beat you to that "super -special" on aged turnips. Don't try to make friends with that cute kid riding in the basket.

This particular copy is dated Sept. 13, 1883 and the label is addressed simply to Patrick Hallahan subscription date August 24, 1884. The print is very small, but according to their heading they have been in the publishing business 3b years. The front page doesn't look much different than the papers of today.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST 21, 1974. Huron -Perth board arranges swimming classes for students Most Grade 3, 4 and 5 students in the Huron Perth Roman Catholic Separate School system will have a chance to learn to swim indoors at the YMCA Pool in Stratford this winter, following an agreement with the Y ratified Monday night, August 12, by HPRCSS board members at their meeting in Seaforth. In exchange for a total of 180 hours of use for students in 16 of its 19 schools, the board will allow the Y to use the gymnasium at St. Michaels School in Stratford for 552 hours. The pool rental costs $19.50 per hour this fall and $21.00 in the winter and spring, and the gym rents at $6 per hour. No money will change hands. however, with the Y waiving an imbalance of $378 in the two costs. The board will pay the costs of busing the children to the Stratford pool. Superintendent of Schools, John Vintar said about 1,000 children will receive swimming instruction. Each of the 16 schools will swim at the Y for 10 hours over a 10 week period. All schools in the board's jurisdiction except St. Joseph's Kingsbridge, St. Mary's, Goderich and Sacred Heart Wingham will use the pool. Under questioning by trustee Howard Shantz of Stratford, Superintendent Vintar said that at least one of the three schools were not using the pool because of distance and that all had made arrangements to use outdoor 'pools in their own communities in May and June. "It's up to the principal and staff", Mr. Vintar said, to decide whether to use the Y pool or not. Trustee Shantz suggested that the board should perhaps set a policy on use of the pool and get all the schools to participate. "Parity throughout the whole system should be the board's concern", he said. "We seem to be leaving a lot up to the principals", he added, After more discussion the agree- ment was ratified on a motion by Mr. Shantz, seconded by F. J. Vere, also of Stratford. Nineteen classes of HPRCSS children learned to swim at the Y during the 1972-73 school year, according to the board's Physical Education consultant John McCarroll. Many separate school support- ers in Huron and Perth are paying higher mill rates for their children's education than are public school supporters, accord- ing to the comparison including 1972, 73 and 74 presented to the board by Business Administrator Jack Lane. in Seaforth, for example, the public elementary rate is 18.66 mills, down 2 from 1973 while the separate elementary rate is 23.13 the same as 1973 and down 3 from 1972. The 1974 high school rate is 18.66 mills, up about 3 from 1972 and 1973. "Trustees need this information to meet challenges from tax payers about the public rate being lower. If it is so, they . can tell why it's so.". Mr. Lane said. One mill represents one dollar of taxation for every $1000 of assessment. "We've attempted to identify trends over three years and they are discouraging from our point of view", Mr. Lane said. 80% of the 47 municipalities the board serves are experiencing decreasing mill rates for public elementary schools and increasing rates for the high schools. Public and separate supporters share the high schools which means that the separate supporter is getting bit with two "major kinds of increases", while the public supporter, with the elementary decrease, ends up paying "about the same as before." More information will be available through trustee Arthur Haid's Finance and insurance Committee, Board chairman Michael Connolly said. A bridge in Hibbert 'Township just south of St. Columban has Veen condemned and HPRCSS in►s drivers will be instructed not to use it, 'Trustee Don Crowley reported for the Transportation Committee. A new bridge is not being built but bus routes do not have to use the old one, Mr. Crowley said. Huron County Council, Huron's Board of Health, the medical officers of Health of Huron and Perth, Hospital auxiliary and Medical representa- tives, all oppose the Mustard Report on restructing of health services ib Ontario Trustee Ted Gcoggrcy at►d Chairman Connolly reported. They attended, as Board representatives, a special session of County Council on Monday afternoon, called to discuss the report and the Department of Health's request for feedback on it. "1 think it's a good idea to support the Huron County Health Unit", Mr. Connolly said, adding that the report, if implemented, could eventually have impact on the schools. The Board decided to send a letter of thanks to the Huron Council for involving them in their discussions. At the last Board meeting in July, trustee Vince Young was asked to approach the Huron County Board of Education on the possibility of tendering together for fuel to supply the boards' properties. On a question from Stratford trustee David Teahen, Mr. Geoffrey said that the Huron Board had completed its fuel negotiations for this year and therefore the matter was dropped. A principal, rather than one or two Board members will be sent to a Toronto meeting which is organizing Education Week throughout the province, the Board decided. Trustees Geoffrey and Shantz who have attended these meetings previously both I said they felt that sending a principal would accomplish more in getting local participation in Education Week. Superintendent Vintar agreed saying "a principal can get information out to the schools through the Principal's Association."

Difficulty found in hiring 2 oral French teachers Citing "a reversal in the teacher situation" a Huron County Board of Education administrator complained Mon- day about the difficulty in finding teachers to fill two vacant positions in board schools. R.B. Allan, assistant superin- tendent of operations, said he has been looking for two oral French teachers, one full-time, the other part-time, to ti11 vacant positions. Board chairman Cayley Hill asked Mr. Allan if the shortage applied only to specialized teach- ers. Mr. Allan replied it is "a generalized problem," and refer- red to a principal friend else- where in the province, who has been looking for several months to fill vacancies at his school. The administrator said teachers are becoming "a scarce item." He said it was hard to find a cause for the shortage but said the recent oversupply of teachers night have scared off would-be teachers. "It's hard to predict what psychology is at work now," he said, adding that he sympathizes with ministry - of education plan- ners who try to juggle the teacher supply and demand situation. 17hile Mr. Allan said the board was planning to interview persons it felt might make suitable replacements, he made no guar- antee the positions would be filled by the start of school in September, THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST 21, 1974.

PG.16. THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST 21, 1974. Behind the scenes Somebody up there doesn't like drivers BY KEITH ROULSTON Don't worry about the popula- tion explosion. Someone in the Ministry of Transport and Communications is looking after it, The pill, abortion, nuclear war, plague and famine have been suggested as possible answers to the overcrowding of the world caused by an ever-growing population but the MTC has come up with a better plan. They're going to kill us off on the highways....or at least one highway in particular, and they're going to do it selectively, getting rid of the stupidest first. On our recent vacation we had the opportunity to travel over a so-called highway in the Halibur- ton highlands that makes our country sidcroads in this part of Ann Landers Ontario look like freeways. Highway 507 seems to be Haliburtons answer to the C.N.E. rollicoaster. it winds it's way around rocks and swamps and goes up hill and down dale to the point where one has a real problem wondering which end is up. Anything over 100 feet long without a curve or hill is considered a straightaway. The scenery would be beautiful, if you could take your eyes off the road long enough to take even a quick peak. The road goes for about 40 miles north from near Peterboro (not counting about 20 miles sideways and 15 miles up and down hills) and that 40 miles will take any sensible driver about an hour and a half. A speed of 30 miles a►1. hour will have your car Fair warning to neglecting wife DEAR ANN LANDERS: I am a sophisticated, self-supporting, middle-aged divorced woman with plenty of freedom, money and friends (both male and female), so you know my life is far from dull. I have a word of advice for a woman I've never met. It's her husband 1 know. In fact, we nearly had an affair. It was I who drew the line because deep down I had a hunch he really cared for her. But that ding•a-ling needs to have her eyes opened before a less scrupulous female comes along and grabs her man. Here's my message: DEAR WOMAN: Your husband became greatly enamored of me because.' paid attention to him, which obviously you haven't done in quite some time. I mean REAL attention, complete with stimulating conversation and verbal recognition of his extraordinary qualities. I made him feel alive and important. He believes you prefer the company of your sisters, your mother and your women friends to him. When you need a man's viewpoint you ask your father. I am not going to see your husband again, lady, because he likes me too much already and 1 am no homewrecker. But 1 believe you should take a good, hard look at that wonderful man of yours and come up with some evidence of appreciation—before you lose him. --A Better Friend of Yours Than You Think DEAR BETTER FRIEND: And now a word from your sponsor, Ann Landers: Any woman who read that letter and suspected that it might have been meant for her had better pull up her socks and get busy. The writer gave you fair warning, which is a heck of a lot more than most wives get these days. Be grateful for the tip-off. DEAR ANN LANDERS: I am a 16 -year-old girl who needs a straight answer. 1 could never ask my mother this question. When a guy gets fresh with his hands and you make it perfectly plain that you want his hands off you immediately, because there is no way he can make any headway in that department, should the girl continue to be friends with him? Or should she tell him to buzz off permanently? --Slow Number In W. Va. DEAR NUMBER: If the guy accepts your guidelines and doesn't try any more funny stuff. I see no reason to write him off permanently. Some fellows need only to know the limits, and they will behave themselves. DEAR ANN LANDERS: I was interested in the letter from the writer who stated abbreviations Ms. was not an innocent little short-cut, but actually stood for Marxian sisters. You said you didn't believe there was a bit of truth in it and invited Gloria Steinem to respond. I'm not Gloria, but a while back 1 ran across something that might be of interest. It appeared in something called "Madame Knight's Journal," which was first published in 1825. Someone was describing a trip taken in 1704 and 1705. The abbreviation Ms. was used frequently for "Mrs." or "Mistress." So you see, there is nothing under the sun, --Franc Shot., National Geographic, Wash., D.C. DEAR FRANC: Thank you for doing Gloria's work. No one can call YOU a male chauvinist pigl Don't get burned by a' line that's too hot to handle. Play it cool with Ann Landers' guideto "Necking and Petting --What Are the Limits?" Send your request to Ann Landers, P.O.

But some nut from the MTC has the road posted 50 miles per hour speed limit. 4 would DELIGHT to see that fellow travel that road at that 'speed, even if there weren't any log trucks coming the other way on some of those curves. I think we'd eliminate one stupid driver in the first mile. some people, of course, seem to think that if the speed limit on a road says 50 m.p.h. you have to go 50 m.p.h. They seem to have implicit faith in the maker of j those speed limit signs (let's hope they also have implicit faith in their own Maker if they're 1 travelling roads like that). After a few miles on the road 1 began earnestly to wonder what kind of insane practical joker could have ordered those 50 m.p.h. signs. Or maybe it was a mistake.... maybe the MTC ran out of 30 m.p.h, signs. Thankfully traffic on the road is not too heavy most of the time (except Friday and Sunday nights when the lineup of cottagers makes it look like 401). We survived, and so I guess have others who ignored those 50 m.p.h. signs or were so busy just trying to stay on the road that they couldn't see the signs. But someday, I hope .the guy who gave the order for those signs has to travel that road....in the dark yet, WATER SAFETY SERVICE HURON DEAD STOCK REMOVAL CLINTON We pick up all farm stock free of charge.
