tie BLYTH, ONTARIO PRICE; 20 CENTS VOLUME 85 • NO. 18 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 1975. board. of directors named The Board of Directors of the new Blyth summer theatre held its first official meeting on Friday. night. The directors met to discuss plans for the corning season. James Roy, who is in charge of trying to get the venture off the ground reported that government grants have been applied for but no word has been received yet on the possibility of their being granted. He also explained the plan to present two, family -entertainment productions during the month of July, running four fights a week. Various fund raising schemes were discussed in order to finance the expreses for the first year. Mr. Roy and his associate Jeffrey Cohen explained that there will be 10 paid members of the staff during the rehearsal month of June and the performances in July, including two local people who will be hired as apprentices. it is also hoped local people will donate their time and talents both on and off stage. Budget for the year_is $'12,000 rather meagre by most professional theatre standards. A discussion was held on memberships and it was voted to sell two dollar memberships to anyone interested in theatre which would include special privileges such as being allowed in to watch rehearsals, receiving an annual newsletter, and taking part in workshop programs at a reduced rate. It was explained that once the two productions are past the rehearsal stage the company will have the time to present workshops for local theatre actors, directors and crews and perhaps to present a children's play. A special public meeting of all those interested in learning more about the venture of volunteering their services was to be held in Memorial Hall on Wednesday evening, April 30, Members named to the board of directors were: Mrs, C. Bainton; Dr. and Mrs. Rudy Leibold; Dr. and Mrs, Rjchard Street; Mr. and Mrs. Ted Hoogsteen; Rev. Fred Carson; Douglas Whitmore; Larry Walsh; Donald Scrimgeour; Jerry Hiltz, a Clinton lawyer; Mrs. Elizabeth Battye; Mrs. Helen Gowing; Mrs. Gwen Patterson; James Roy; Jeffrey Cohen and Keith Roulston, It is hoped to have a subscription drive started for tickets for the productions of early June, once the plays to be produced have been finally decided on. 50 years married Mr. and Mrs. John Armstrong of Londesboro celebrated their SOth wedding anniversary on Tuesday with an open house at their home.

Hanly named new Huron administrator B. G. Hanly has been appointed Huron County Clerk -Treasurer and Administrator effective immediately, He succeeds John G, Berry who died recently following a lengthy illness. Acting Deputy Clerk is Mrs. Mildred Simpson and Acting Deputy Treasurer is Mrs. Martina Schncikcr,, Mr. Hanly told members of Huron County Council last Thursday in Goderich that the temporary appointments of Mrs. Simpson and Mrs, Schncikcr to chief county posts will allow time to "take a look at the overall operation". The Administrator said that before his death, Mr. Berry had made some recommendations for possible changes in the county administrative staff. Mr. Hanly felt now is the best time to consider these recommendations, "The present system is probably the best one," Mr. Hanly said, "but maybe - very maybe- there should be some changes. We'd like time to study it." Mr. Hanly's salary will be $22,000 per annum and Mrs. Simpson and Mrs. Schncikcr will each receive $25 per week in addition to their regular salaries for their added responsibilities. Council authorized the purchase of a memorial plaque in recognition of the 26 years of "faithful and dedicated service to the County of Huron of the late John G. Berry". Miss Cathy McKinley, daughter of Warden and Mrs. Anson McKinley, has been hired as Program co-ordinator and supervisor for the History Project in Huron, providing the project is approved by the Ministry of Education. Miss McKinley worked on the project in 1973 with Professor Janies Scott who had been engaged to supervise the project at that time. Professor Scott is unavailable this year. "The Committee is confident that Miss McKinley, with her education qualifica- tions and former experience on the project, can capably finalize this undertaking," said Robin .1. Lawrie, Reeve of Blyth and Chairman of the Executive Committee. Miss McKinley recently graduated in journalism from Ryerson Polytechnical Institute in Toronto. Bruce Tyndall has been retained by the. county as a caretaker, He replaces Len Westbrook who retires in May. Reeve Stan Profit, Chairman of the county property committee, said that 22 applications were received for the position. Londesboro couple celebrate 50th wedding anniversary with Mr. and Mrs. John W, Armstrong of Londesboro held open house last Tuesday, April 29 in the afternoon and evening to celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary. The bridegroom is a 'son of the late Mr. and Mrs, Mathew Armstrong of Kinburn, while the bride is the former Gladys Irene Taman, daughter of the late Mr, and Mrs. Henry Taman of Blyth. Mr. Armstrong's parents lived to Amalgamation of health' boards to be studied by Huron The Huron County Board of Health received permission at last Thursday's general meeting of county council to make appointments to a Huron Perth Steering Committee, the first step toward a Huron -Perth District Health Council. The possibility of a joint health council has been under discussion for sometime between Huron and Perth. On the steering committee from Huron County will be the chairman of the Health Unit Board, one representative of the medical society, one representative of the Hospital Planning Council, one representative of a consumer or voluntary organization and one other representative. Perth County will have the same number of representatives. The Warden and the Medical Officer of Health from both counties will be ex -officio members of the steering committee, "This is an importantaspect of promotion of health in Huron,�� said Reeve E. W. Oddleifson, chairman of the Huron County Board of Health. Reeve Oddleifson said Huron has met twice with Perth County to discuss the possibility of a Health Council, He said that while the appointment of a steering committee doesn't "commit this county to anything", the Minister of Health for Ontario is "very favorably inclined" toward some agreement between Huron and Perth where health matters are concerned. MOH Dr. Frank Mills said that after the steering committee has met with both Huron and Perth Health Units, names would be submitted to the Minister of Health for membership on a joint District Health Council. The Minister of Health reserves the right to either accept or reject the recommendation of the steering committee as to the composition of the Health Council. "It is an important step to get people to sit down and talk about health care services," said Dr. Mills, He mentioned it would be the committee's duty to make recommendations or proposals for improv- ing health services in Huron and Perth, and about such things as costly duplication of services. open huse celebrate their 67th wedding anniversary. The Couple were married at the parsonage in Blyth on April 29, 1925 by Rev. Tiffin. Attendants for the couple were Laura Rutledge, now Mrs. Fred Wagner of Auburn and Fred Armstrong, brother of the groom. Following their marriage, the couple took up residence in Londesboro where John owned and operated a general store for eight years. They have resided in Londesboro for their 50 years of married life. After selling the store, Mr. Armstrong farmed, and was a well-known cattleman for many years. He led a very active life in municipal affairs and federal politics. As well as being a member of Hullett Township council for eight years, serving both as a councillor and reeve, he was elected Warden of Huron County in 1949. • He was also an active member of the Liberal party, and ran for a seat in the Federal riding against the late Tom Pryde, who defeated him. Mrs. Armstrong served actively in church work during her younger years, and is a life member of the U.C.W. She also belongs to the Londesboro Women's Institute, and is a member of the O.E.S,, Blyth, Mr, Armstrong is still an active member of the Londesboro Men's Bowling League, as well as all facets of sports in the community. Both have been members of Londesboro United Church for 50 years. The couple have two children, Doreen, Mrs. Glen Carter of Hullett Township, and Kenneth of Londesboro, who is a constable in the Ontario Provincial Police Detach- ment of Goderich. They have seven grandchildren. Last Sunday, April 27, the couple entertained their families, brothers, and sisters and a few close friends to a dinner at the home of Mr, and Mrs, Glen Carter. Last Tuesday, April 29, open house was held at the Armstrong residence in Londesboro, and the couple received many congratulatory cards and telegrams. Those pouring tea were Mrs. Ella Munroe and Mrs, Fred Armstrong in the afternoon, and Mrs. Jim Armstrong and Mrs. Clarence Crawford in the evening. All the grandchildren were present and helped out. Also serving were Mrs. Watson Reid and Mrs. Alien Shaddick. The kitchen was in the capable hands of Mrs, Dave Anderson and Mrs, Edwin Wood, County tries to cut costs An offset duplicator and binding equipment has been authorized for the county building at a cost of $11,794.02.

MV.C.A. disclaims floodresponsibility The Maitland Valley Conserva- tion Authority Executive Commit- tee held a special meeting to discuss and evaluate the recent flooding in the watershed. As a result of this meeting the Conservation Authority would like to state its position of responsibility. Too often an Authority is criticized for not being in the right place at the right time. It is a physical impossibility within a 1,000 square mile watershed for the limited Authority staff to participate in emergency opera- tions Such as sandbagging. There are simply too many vulnerable areas. The Authority's basic function in emergency flood situations is one of communications. Flood Low cost counselling available Counselling services for small businesses in areas ranging from cash management to marketing are being made available this year through the Ministry of Industry and Tourism Small Business Assistance Program. Based on the success of last year's program in which more than 600 Ontario companies benefited from this low cost program, the Ministry will be employing 126 university stu- dents who, supported by faculty of schools of business administra- tion, will supply counselling services to small businesses from May through August. Companies taking advantage of the service receive business counselling in cash management, financial planning, bookkeeping and paper flow analysis. In the marketing area, busi- nesses have been helped to establish. marketing plans solving such concerns as channels ' of distribution, promotional tech- piques and pricing. Companies have also been helped to install inventory and cost control and production scheduling systems. In announcing the 1975 pro- gram Claude Bennett, Minister of Industry and Tourism, noted the majority of companies utilizing last year's program had high praise for the work done by the students. "This is a most sensible and useful program," he said. "It offers business counselling at a very low cost in areas essential for the success of small businesses," Companies wishing to learn more about the program should contact Ministry offices in Ottawa, Kingston, Sudbury, St. Catharines, Thunder Bay, Toronto, London or Kitchener. warnings are received from the this management program, we Conservation Authorities Branch are requesting that the rural of the Ministry of Natural municipalities also approve the Resources (Toronto).

Education Minister, Tom Wells, was asked why it was not made public especially when the Government has set up a Royal Commission to study violence on television under former Federal Liberal Cabinet Minister Judy La Marsh, who will be paid $250 a sitting. ' Consumer and Commerical Relations Minister, Sidney Handleman who now looks after the Theatres Branch, and whose Ministry now has the'Report, said it was an internal study done for guidance to assist the Govern- ment in developing policy. He said he would look at the Report and decide whether to release it or not. Ontario Health Insurance Plan payments for April, May, June and July of 1974 were almost $30 million higher than the same period the previous year. Pay- ments to medical and other practitioners totalled $210,2 million compared with $180.6 million for the same period in 1973, an increase of 16.4 per cent. This week the Legislature has been dealing with the tax bills announced in the Budget. The Sales Tax Amendment received extensive comment, particularly the provision related to the cut-off date of December 31st, 1975. In addition, the Amendment to the Succession Duty Act and the Amendment to the Gift Tax Act were also debated. The Gift Tax Act provides for an increase from $50 to $70,000 in the exemption for gifts in farming assets for use in farming. It also provides for an increase from $2 to $5,000 in the annual exemption for gifts made by a donor to anyone individual, and an increase from $I0 to $25,000 in the aggregate of such annual exemptions that a donor is entitled to claim in a year.

That's good news for those who arc interested in things theatrical, but it should also be•good news for many other people. We are close enough to Stratford to see just what a successful summer theatre can do for a community. The chances of Blyth repeating Stratford's success are, of course, small, But a small town called Niagara -on -the -Lake can also provide an example. That small town's Shaw Festival is quickly rivalling Stratford as a major entertainment centre. A successful summer theatre can mean the same thing as having a new industry move into town. It can provide jobs as it grows in back -stage work. it can provide a large economic stimulus to the community in providing services for the tourists who come to see the theatre. In Stratford, for instance, many homes open their doors to families who come to see the theatre productions. This could mean extra income for people who have a room or two in their houses they can rent out to tourists. it can mean potential business that might mean the building and renovation of hotel and motel accommodation, with a resulting spin-off effect for the construction industry in town. The summer theatre can help pay for improvements to Memorial Hall. The key word in all this is "successful", and the key to the theatre being successful is that the community be behind the theatre. While the actual on stage participants in the summer theatre are not local residents, the big benefits of the project will be in the village. Much volunteer labour will be needed to help behind the scenes in such things as selling tickets, and just talking up the project. The project will need all the help it can get this year, and even if it gets it, it's a long term thing. The project will need to build each year on the success of the year before. A dedicated board of directors of local people is doing its best to make sure that happens. By getting behind the project, the community can help make it happen. Turning a blind eye Solicitor General Warren Almond's recent statements regarding capital punishment show he is either hopelessly out of touch, or just plain dishonest. Mr. Almond recently said that it appeared that public reaction was growing so strong that the government was going to be forced to abolish the death penalty completely. Come on now Mr. Almond! In the past year we've heard thousands of calls for the reinstituting of hanging for all murders. We've heard hundreds of demands that the government enforce the present law calling for the hanging of persons found guilty of killing police officers or prison guards. On the other hand, there has been only one protest we've heard from those wanting to see the complete abolition of the death penalty: a petition from many prominent writers and radio and television personalities a few weeks ago. To say that public pressure is going to force the government to abolish the death penalty is ridiculous. If he had said public pressure was going to force reinstitution of the death penalty he'd be more honest. We've supported the abolition of the death penalty in the past, but statements like Mr. Almond's are bound to do harm to that cause, If you can't say something intelligent, sir, don't say anything at all. Wintario..are we small As others see it Writers comment on greed Finance Minister John Turner recently proposed a six -point program of restraint to help defeat inflation. He first unveiled the program at a joint meeting with the provincial premiers, Richard Gwyn covered the meeting and wrote the following in his column in the Toronto Daily Star: "Turner presented to the conference a six -point program to set 'targets for the slowing -down of the rate of inflation,' which would serve as voluntary guide- lines to wage demands, price increases and for increases in professional fees, rents and other forms of income. Criticisms of the program are easy to make. It has moved slowly, and it remains vague. The public at large never has been involved. Provincial commitment is essential to its success and these governments only were drawn into the process at this conference. Difficulties are even easier to identify. As great as any is the phenomenon identified in a recent C.D. Howe Research Institute study as "comparative bargaining" in which unions increasingly base their claims not on an industry's ability to pay nor even on the need of their members but upon what other groups of workers happen to have won for themselves. "The criticisms and the difficul- ties miss the point. For once, public opinion, and public opinion alone, will decide an issue. "Self-discipline begins and ends with trust. As soon as one individual exercises restraint and another doesn't, the first will have been cheated. And will neither forgive nor forget. "That is the challenge of voluntary restraint. And its risk. If we as a le cannot find the self-disciplineP I eo to "break" infla- tion, to use Turner's phrase, then it will break us." PAY DEMANDS Meanwhile Toronto Star columnist Robert Miller was taking a jaundiced look at recent wage demands in Canada: "Shame, shame, shame on Metro's elementary-school teachers who demand '45.8 per cent more pay for one of their abbreviated years work. "Shame on bone -idle Montreal dockworkers who reject a contract offer that would have taken their incomes past the $20,000 level, an increase of more than 60 per cent, "Sharpe on gougers crowding the public trough Ivhercver they arc - in the post office, in the Ontario public service, in lineups at the Unemployment insurance Commission pay -wicket, in bed or in Ibiza on the Canada Council, "Shame on governments - federal, provincial, municipal - so chicken-hearted they will pay employees exorbitant settlements with cash extorted from a helpless public, merely to buy a few months' peace. "And shame on you and me for Those were 5 years , ago APRIL 29, 1970 Eleven Blyth Public School students boarded a train in Brussels on April 17 bound for Toronto as the result of a student exchange program. Taking part in the exchange were Barb Empcy, Marie Empey, Hilly Van Amers- foort, Judy Nicholson, Sandy Marshall, Gary Caldwell, Kevin Carter, Benji Stadelnlann and Ralph Hoba. On arrival in Toronto they were greeted by students at Union Station, were taken home by the students they were to stay with for lunch, toured city hall, the Toronto Dominion Centre and other points of interest. The, group stayed at the homes of the host students during the weekend and on Monday toured the Ontario Science Centre and visited the airport. They returned home Monday night.

There's been something funny about the whole thing ever since it was first announced. The minister in charge, Robert Welch announced plans for the lottery one day and by midnight the next day, the lottery was law. Not much chance for consideration by the Members of Parliament before they had to vote on the matter. Then, we in the newspaper industry discovered that only a few towns were considered important enough to be ,worth advertising in. For instance, locally, only the paper in Goderich got any advertising. If you listen to the government advertising, you'd think the tickets are on sale in just about every store in the province. Yet there is not a single outlet for the lottery tickets in Blyth, In Wingham there is only one outlet and it sold out of tickets for the first lottery very early. Then there was the more publicized complaint that some government -appointed distributors are going to make huge profits (some more than $100,000 a year) in selling the tickets. All in all, it appears that Mr, Welch would have been well advised to have taken a little more time in drawing up the plans for the lottery. Small towns like Blyth are, as far as we know, still part of Ontario (at least we are as far as paying taxes goes). It would be nice if we were given the same opportunities and privileges as the rest of the taxpayers in the province. APRIL 28, 1965 The Blyth-Belgravc Beef Calf Club held its organizational meeting in Memorial Hall on Wednesday, April 21 and Murray Vincent was named president of the club.

"It's disgusting. And it's going to ruin a country that for many people has been the world's finest. "Greed. Say it out loud. And draw it out, Like this: "Greeeccd." "The word even sounds sleazy. No wonder it's one of the seven deadly sins. Certainly, it's threat- ening to become the death of our prosperity, and, regrettably, it has already become a major Canadian characteristic. We're no longer a dull people; we're too damn, sharp, "Equality. A fine word, a noble goal, but a logical absurdity in everything but mathematics, And yet, "equality -plus" has become the demand of every group in our society. They all demand to be equally compensated, plus a little something extra because each group is really, ahem, superior to all the others and, ahem, doing more important work. "'thus we have a' teacher's spokesman complaining that cer- tain ranks in the police depart- ment are paid more than certain ranks in the teaching industry. What an indignity!" the days last run on Saturday and along the line at various stops small crowds assembled and pictures were taken to commemorate the occasion. W. N. Watson of Blyth who makes weekly trips to Toronto in connection with the drover business he and his brother, J. B. Watson operate, was a passenger on the last run on Saturday. In conversation with the editor, Mr. Watson recalled that he was a member of the Blyth hardball team that made a trip in August 1907 to Milverton when Blyth and Milverton played ball. On the inaugural run on the line. It was a gala occasion indeed, he recalled and the train was crowded with dignataries and passengers, many of them Blyth fans who went along to cheer the team, which incidently won the game. Sponsored by the Belgrave School Fair Association, the two day Belgrave Music Festival was staged on Thursday and Friday of last week. The event was greeted with interest and enthusiasm by competitors and parents and friends alike. A Blyth girl, Marlene Walsh was chosen the first queen of Clinton District Collegiate insti- tute. The grade 12 student is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Walsh of Blyth.

The Huron County Federation of Agriculture decided to mount a campaign to gain a one-fifth mill levy effective next year. Practically a full house greeted the teaching staff and pupils of Blyth Public School on Friday evening as they presented their annual concert in the Memorial Hall. A great deal of effort and time was spent by both teachers and pupils all of which showed to advantage as pupils, large and small, portrayed their roles like veterans. Mr. Gray, the principal, thanked the gathering for a fine attendance. Mr. John W. Hanna was in The Standard office recently at the same times as a Victory Loan Salesman from the village. On lacing introduced he offered to buy a bond from the salesman laid purchased a $1,000 bond, thereby helping Blyth to reach its goal. The Standard featured pictures of the tortured remains of men who had been in Nazi concentra- tion camps and pictures of captured German army and police officers as the allied armies pushed toward the final victory over Germany. 50 years ago APRIL 23, 1925 Charles McClelland, died on Friday after being part of the business life of the community for 40 years. He was born in Armaugh, Ireland and came to Canada as a babe in arms, 70 years ago, where his family took up residence in Halton county. His father later purchased a general store in Belgrave and he and his brother Alexander be- came associated in the business. He continued in it until his disposal seven yeras ago and his moving to Blyth. While he lived in Belgrave there was seldom a social event at which he was not present, He played a major part after coming to Blyth in the building of Memorial Hall as a memorial to the soldiers of the community. For several years he served as honoured treasurer of the Hall and remarked that he'd like to live to see the day when the hall would be finished. He was a member of the Blyth Agricultural Society and of 'trinity church, The C.N.R. reported a net drop in income of more than $5 million in the first quarter of the years as compared with the year before.

You can study gardening at home Following the directions in gardening manuals and on seed, fertilizer and insecticide packages can give you a successful garden, but you still may not understand what causes such gardening techniques and chemicals to work. The Home Gardening corres- pondence course offered by the University of Guelph can provide a greater understanding of plants and their cultivation. It includes an explanation of plant classifica- tion and growth; soils and fertilizers; plant propagation; culture of vegetables, herbs, fruit, houseplants, trees, shrubs, and lawns; landscaping; and pest control. "One year of home study is allowed for completion of the course, says Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticultur- ist, D.B. McNeill, "but this period can be extended for reasonable reasons, such as illness. A HO= Gardener Certifi- cate is awarded to everyone who successfully finishes the course." The cost of the Home Garden- ing correspondence program is $30 for Ontario residents and $50 for others, Textbooks cost approximately $30, For more information, contact the Office of Continuing Educa- tion, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario NIG 2W1, FRO TS of EEF RAPPED AN FA'T FROZEN ORDER, NO \ BEFORE BEEF PRI ES JUMP, NY ORE!

THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 30, 1975. Husband is Karate Kook DEAR ANN LANDERS: Is there any way 1 can name karate lessons as the "Correspondent" in a divorce suit? My husband is 37. Joc and I have been married for 12 years. We have three children but he has no time for them. inc takes karate five evenings a week. He leaves the house at 5:00 p.m. (the kids and I cat alone) and he returns at 10:00 p.m. unless he stops off for something to eat with a few of his karate classmates who are college students. This has been going on for two years, Joe is always bruised and suffering from sore muscles. (No sex.) He hasn't done a thing around the house since he started his lessons. 1 had to hire a man to Taint the living room last spring, because Joe was too busy getting his green sash. Now he has his black belt and wants to be a Third Degree. The only day we are a family is on Sunday. I love my husband but I think I am getting gypped and so are the kids. Why would a grown man behave this way? --Alone Alot DEAR A.: You say your husband is a grown man? Well, maybe he is physically -- but not emotion- ally. A man who takes karate lessons five nights a week, leaving his family to have dinner alone, is grossly immature. I'd suggest counselling but he wouldn't go because it would interfere with his karate lessons. So -- 1 hope YOU will get some counselling and learn how to deal . with the problem. If you find the situation intolerable we're back to the same old question. Would your life be better or worse without him? How about the kids? The decision is yours to make. DEAR ANN: As a woman who holds a Ph.D., I was surprised to reply to the reader who question- ed who she should introduce a married couple when both hold doctorates. Your reply that the woman . probably worked harder to get her husband than to get her Ph.D. was irresponsible. Today, when so many women are struggling to change attitudes which have limited their contributions to society, your comment showed an insensitivity to the climate of the times, to say nothing of the hard work and years of study that ANY person who holds a Ph.D. must invest. You stated that the couple probably should be introduced as Dr, and Mrs. John Smith. Why not Dr. and MR. John Smith? The reversal underlines the illogic of your first suggestion. Your second -- Doctors John and Jean Smith -- is better. But why not Doctors Jean and John Smith? As all of us old-timers know, ladies come first. To blow your mind, I sign myself, truthfully --A Yalle Ph.D. Married To A Yalle Ph. D. DEAR YALIE: You are right. 1 was wrong. I bow to your superior judgment. Pass the humble pie, Doctor.

However, when it comes to cooking, all apples are not created equal. To help you buy the kind you want for a particular purpose, food special- ists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food have prepared this chart: Variety: McIntosh Apples are Through research and advanced techniques, the apple industry has developed a method of controlled atmosphere storage which makes it impossible for your to have Ontario apples all year round. These specially designed storage units virtually halt the ripening of apples, say food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agri- culture and Food. Controlled atmosphere (C.A.) storage holds apples in "suspended animation", keeping then as fresh and juicy as the day they were picked. Normally, an apple would ripen after harvest, taking in oxygen and giving off carbon dioxide. C.A. storage combines low temperatures with an atmosphere of low oxygen and controlled carbon dioxide. This slows down the ripening process to such an extent that the apples Cortland Spy Delicious (Red and Golden) Use: Fresh, Baked, Pie, Sauce Fresh, Salads, Pic, Sauce Fresh, Baked, Pic, Sauce Fresh, Salads, Sauce If you find one or two bruised apples in your refrigerator, don't year round in C.A. storage virtually hold all the crispness and flavor they had at harvest.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 30, 1975, PG., 7, From the minister's study A creed for parents and youth BY REV. DERWYN DOCKEN, WALTON Isaiah 1:18 "Conic now, let us sit down and reason together. says the Lord." Dr. 'Thomas Gordon, author of Parent Effectiveness training, has written the following Credo that I think is an excellent commentary on this verse from Isaiah, as it relates to parents, and youth. "You and I are in a relationship that I value and want to keep. Yet each of us is a separate person with his own unique needs and the right to try to rnegt those needs. I will try to be genuinely accepting -of your behaviour when you are trying to meet your needs or when you are having problems meeting your needs. "When you share your problems, I will try to listen ac,:eptingly and understand in a way that will aid your finding your own solutions rather than depending upon mine. When you have a problem because my behaviour is interfering with your meeting your needs, I encourage you to tell me openly and honestly how you are feeling. At those times, 1 will listen and try to modify niy behaviour, if I can. "However, when your behavior interferes with my meeting my own needs, thus causing me to feel unaccepting of you, I will share my problem with you and tell you as openly and honestly as I can exactly how I am feeling. I will trust that you will respect my needs enough to listen and then try to modify your behaviour. "At those times when either of us cannot modify his behaviour to meet the needs of the other, and find that we have a conflict in our relationship, let us commit ourselves to resolve each such conflict without every resorting to the use of either my power of yours to win at the -expense of the other losing. I respect your needs, but I also must respect my own. Thus, let us always strive to search for solutions that will be acceptable to both of us. In this way, your needs will be met, but so will mine •• no one will lose, we will both win. "As a result, you can continue to develop as a person by meeting your needs, but so can I. Our relationship thus can always be a healthy one because it will be mutually satisfying. Each of us can become what he is capable of being, and we can continue to relate to each other with feelings of mutual respect and love, in friendship and peace." It seems to me that this is one of the most promising ideas on parent-child relationship that I have ever come across. It's a Credo in Fact, that could be applied to all our interpersonal relationships. For me at least here is Christian love in action!

BY BILL SMILEY When people ask me about my column, at one point or another, they usually say: "Boy, I bet you get a lot of mail." Well, yes. 1 do. But i don't exactly have to hire a secretary to send out answers, along with an autographed picture. I solve the problem by not answering most of,my mail. As a result, I frequently feel guilty, for as long as three or four minutes. Ninety-five per cent of my mail is garbage, and is disposed of as such. Along with the junk mail --flyers, broadsides and special offers that everyone gets --1 get quite a few letters from nuts. Atikokan, Ont., seems to be a breeding place of this species, with apologies to all the fine Atikokans who, I'm sure, abound in that fine, fresh, northern community. Years ago, i had a running battle with some kooky minister from Atikokan, who accused me of things I'd have been delighted to be able to do. As 1 recall, he thought I thought 1 was a rake, and I had to convince him that 1 was a hoe. Bill gets lots of letters but handles them easily Then one summer evening, a stranger walked into my backyard and introduced himself as the former linotypc operator from the Atikokan paper. He wanted a referencefor a job, and he wanted us to join forces and bring down the free enterprise system, or the Women's Christian Temperance Union, or something of the sort. He got a local job, lasted a few weeks, and the only thing we managed to put down were a couple of beers. Recently, I received another letter front an Atikokan. For eight and a half pages he belabored me about the inefficiency of private enterprise, because of a remark I'd made, suggestingthe Canadian postal service be turned over to same. This guy agreed that the postal service was rotten, but he told me, with many examples, that private industry, also, is completely inefficient. 1 agree, man, It's lousy. I know, i once worked for a summer in one of North America's great industries, and 1 have never, before or since, seen such skullduggery among the workers and stupidity in management. But what hurt was when he called my remarks a "figment of the imagination of a naive, inexperienced, sheltered academic, such as yourself". All the nasty words were underlined. Well, I've got news for you, boyo. Any guy who has worked **'**************************qtr*************•****************** on the lake boats, in industry, gone through a war, engaged in that toughest of all free enterprises, the weekly newspaper business, and staggered through nearly 30 years of marriage and childraising is not exactly naive, inexperienced, or sheltered, He may be a shattered wreck, but. And I resent being called an academic. I'm a school teacher. Neither proud of it nor ashamed of it. i don't try to mold little twigs in the way they should bend. Nor do 1 try to turn out a "product" that our society will be proud ot. 1 just try to teach younger people something of what I have learned about life. The letter mentioned was signed, but above the signature was a fairly desperate "You can't use nay name," with the "can't" underlined three times, 1 should, and have you fired as an atheist, womanizer, boozer and Marxist, but I won't. It isn't important. Boy, here's another letter don't quite know what to do with. it's from a chap who tells nie I'm all wrong about the Post Office, and then proceeds at length to tell me what a dirty deal he got as an employee of that moribund corpse. File it, 1 guess. He, too, can't be named. Here's a pleasant one from a lady whose daughter must live in sin, or lose her university grant. if she gets married, her husband will have to pay her fees. This is a blatant inequity, in niy eyes, but a subject tor Women's Lib, winch could certainly use some intelligent causes, for a change, And here's a dandy, from a fellow who has written a book. He sent nye a copy, and says: "After you have read it, would you consider giving it the same mention in your column as was done with Ten Lost Years? He says: "This book is similar, perhaps more profound". At least he's honest. "If you would, it may give it some extra sales impact required at this time". Sorry. No way. it is a dull book. Ah. Here's a lively bit of correspondence, it's my weekly news sheet from Imperial Oil. Fifteen years ago, at a rather bibulous reception, I met a charming young lady who worked for that company's public relations department. When she learned 1 wrote a syndicated column, she wanted to know if I'd like to receive the regular Imperial Oil news. "Sure," l gestured expansively. Send along anything. A quart of oil here, a gallon of gas there, your sister if she's not busy". Ever since, i've been getting that hot little item from imperial Oil, the weekly news release, And h inevitablykindles a little glow. In my fireplace. 0h, Lordy. here's another great sheaf of correspondence from that perpetual nuisance, the guy who had his name changed officially to Mr. Midwife, He is now President of an organization called international Scientific Lay Non -Medical Midwives. Now, 1 can swallow Non-medical Midwives. But I find it hard to conjure up an International Scientific Lay. And that's the correspondence dealt with for another week.

Only one cost factor is down from the sank month 0 year ago and that, curiously enough, is one that is produced by farmers. While the livestock farmer may have some short terns relief because of lower feed prices, this conics out of the pockets of the cash -crop farmer who gets less for his grain. One feed ingredient that didn't go down is minerals al d vitamins, and this of course is not produced on the farm. It shows clearly that everyone has 5(1111e Sort Of increase insurance but the farmer. You may have read in the news that the Ontario Federation of Agriculture wanes something done in this regard. We need sonic government assistance to get the hall rolling, and the vast majority of Formers who have polled so far, support the farm increase insurance plan. 11, simply stated, says that that the farmer with the help of the government built up a fund in times of high prices and pay out of it if prices fall below the cost of production level. To show the difference in the way 0 farmer sells his product with the way an urban business- man clots. Mrs. Joan Stadclman of Blyth sent ole the following, "A farmer bought a new car after spending a lot of tinge pricing there. By coincidence, 0 few days later, the dealer who sold the car appeared at his farm gate and wanted to buy a cow for his hobby farm. The farmer quickly wrote out the following and handed it to the dealer: Basic cow $200, Two-tone exterior $45. Extra stomach $75. Produce storage conlpartMein $60. Dispensing devices (1 at $10 each) $40. Genuine cowhid upholstery $125, Automatic Ily swatter $35, Duel horns $15. Plus tax and delivery $545, 'Total charge $1190. Imagine the options of my sow with 16 spigots and 0 built-in vacuum cleaner. This really opens up some hitherto unthought of possibilities. Could your farm handle the no -tillage system? According to researchers at the Ontario Agricultural College, there arc large acreages in southern Ontario of coarse-textur- ed soils where no -tillage could, and possibly should, be part of a modern farm operation for corn and silage production. Research carried out at Ridge - town and Kemptville Colleges of Agricultural Technology, Elora Research Station, Guelph, and Milton indicate that there is no significant difference in crop yields compared with conven- tional tillage on these coarse- textured soils. "No -till practices in Ontario on these soils have resulted in as high a yield, with only slight variation between cropping years," points out Professor'I'.H. Lane, of OAC's Land Resource Science Department, and Dr. R,J. Dowdell, a visiting scientist from the Agriculture Research Council, Letcombe Laboratory near Ox- ford, England. Dr, Dowdell has experience of no -till practices of England, where large acreages of small grains have been seeded this way for a number of years, • The researchers indicate that there are many advantages to no -till coarse-textured soils. The no -tillage system, which elimin- ates both primary and secondary tillage, can reduce the rate of moisture evaporation. Where erosion can be a serious problem, leaving crop residue on the soil surface prevents damage caused by runoff, In terms of energy requirements, by cutting down on the tillage of Fields, farmers will reduce the costs of fuel consumption. Another advantage is that, with no -tillage, the time involved for land preparation and seeding can be reduced to about one-third of the time for conventional tillage. "The key to success with no -tillage is to start with a soil that's high in phosphorus and potash," states Professor Lane, "With high fertility levels in the soil, future applications of these two nutrients can be surface - applied to maintain these levels." But there arc some potential drawbacks to no -tillage. Dr. Dowdell points out that "the no -till cycle may have to be broken occasionally for weed and insect control, and to eliminate the ruts caused during harvest that can reduce crop yields because of compaction." But both Lane and Dowdell warn against thinking that no -till practices can be initiated immed- iately. Fertility levels must be relatively high and maintained. Machinery must be modified or purchased to suit no -till practices. Also, the less tillage used in a field, the more important herbi- cide -use becomes. For no -tillage to be successful, farmers must start with a clean field, one that is both weed- and disease-free, ' Consider the cultivation prac- tices you're following now. If there is a place for no -tillage on your farm, contact the soils and crops specialists at local offices of the Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food.

An engine tune-up can save fuel Farm gasoline and diesel engines in Ontario use over 100 million gallons of fuel per year. A small reduction by each engine could result in substantial sav- ings, suggest Agricultural Engin- eers of the Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food, Visible block from a diesel engine, or black deposits on the inside of gasoline engine exhaust pipes, are both indicators that fuel is being wasted. A diesel engine that produces black smoke is getting too little air or too much (or poorly vaporized) fuel, or the engine requires major repairs. A simple check of the air-intake system will determine if obstruc- tions exist, A qualified diesel technician can test the injectors for spray palter') and vaporization and the pump for overfuelling. Carburetor adjustments on gasoline engines are much simpler and can often he made by the operator. The operator's manual usually provides guide- lines, Care must be taken to ensure that the fuel to air ratio is not too low (too lean). The result will be premature valve failure, The inside of the exhaust pipe should be gray riot white.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRiL 30, 1975. BY KEITII ROULSTON The most powerful people in the country today aren't the politicians or the big business- men, The most powerful people are the teachers. The teachers, by my definition, include not only those who toil in the stuffy classrooms of our modern education factories, but those more glamorous positions in the many forms of the media from movies, through television, books, magazines and finally, to the lowly newspaper reporter. These people too, teach, though few would categorize them as being in the profession. While they don't work in the concent- rated setting of the classroom, they may even have more power in shaping our ideas than our schoolroom teachers. And it is this media teacher who deserves a good deal of the blame for the rotten state of North America at present. The greatest problem we face is not unemploy- ment or inflation but greed, it is .greed that makes inflation and unemployment such large issues. Solve the problem of greed, and we won't have the other two. And it's the greed that has been promoted by the media teachers. We went to a movie the other night and it struck me once again how the movies either show sumptuous,• extravagant settings or grating, ugly poverty. There's never a half -way point. The majority of movies show luxurious homes, expensive cars, lavish parties and rich clothes. Is it any wonder, after being fed this kind of image that everyone is rich, that people have begun to think that everyone can be rich? The same sort of thing goes for television, where nearly all the heros live in large houses_ and drive fancy cars. Only now and then, as in such shows as All in the Family does television try to show the way "real" people live. Television commercials and magazine_ and newspaper advert- isements all seem to tell people they can have a little more than they've got now. So naturally, everyone thinks they should be able to step up another notch on the ladder...at the expense of those around them. But, of course, we can't all be rich. The only way you and I and the guy across the street can all be millionaires is if it takes a million dollars to live the same lifestyle we can now get with a few thousands a year. Even if we redistributed all the wealth in the world, most of us wouldn't gain much. In fact we'd most likely lose, because those who are presently rich, who have money to invest in factories and stores and real estate, wouldn't have Our "teachers" are letting us down badly that money, and therefore we'd get higher in the education have a lot more unemployment. system it becomes more and more Our teachers in the media field, apparent that the sympathies of then, have through a lack of the teachers and college instruc- responsibility, riot served us well, tors lies with socialist doctrine.

We are seeing teacher strikes almost as often as we're seeing strikes in the post office, and that's often. Some of the strikes,to be sure, involvc• non - greed issues like the size of classes. Most often, however, this commendable, concern has been shoved aside by the determination for a bigger pay check. And that battle has been led by the secondary teachers, the people who already get a much bigger share of the education dollar than the primary teachers who work perhaps even harder to help their students. But aside from the money angle there are some even more upsetting developments in the field of teaching. These are most evident in Quebec right now where the teachers' federation recently sent out a pamphlet to its members which proposes a special teaching program for May 1, the international"Workers' Day". The pamphlet gives a course of instruction for teachers to give to their children which gives a Marxist view of society. Quebec Education Minister Fran- cois Cloutier called it immoral and subversive, Here, Quebec teachers are taking advantage of their special. place in society to try to destroy that same society. Much the same thing has taken place in the past inside such places as the newspapers and the C.B.C. in Quebec where leftists and separ- atists have used their positions to try to influence the thinking of people against the very estab- lishment that pays their salaries. Such things aren't as apparent in the rest of Canada, but the undercurrent is still there. When you see a school teacher run for parliament, which party does he run for? Ten chances to one it's the NDP or some other socialist - oriented party. When these teachers lose, they go back to teaching, but how much of their ideology seeps into their teaching, especially in such subjects as history? I'm recently enough connected with the school system to say that very few teachers openly show their political feelings, but as you NOTICETO SHOP PERtS Beginning`May 2, Blyth stores will remain open Frida nights`until 9 p rn, \for your Convenience.
