Teachers, board agree on 29% salary increase Huron County Board of Education approved the salary schedule for its secondary school teachers Tuesday night at a meeting in Clinton. The new pact will mean an increase in the salary bill for secondary schools of 29.92 per cent. The salary schedule for 1974-75 was $4,058,990 for the 256 teachers involved. In 1975-76 it will be $5,273,621. Under the agreement the starting salary for high school teachers will be from $10,400 to $12,400 depending on the qualifications. A teacher with 10 years experience will earn from. $17,400 to $21,900 according to experience. A cost of living allowance payable in April 1976 and August 1976 will see teacher salaries increased by an additional one-third of the salary multiplied by the consumer price index for the previous four months and eight months respectively. The board will also pay 100 per cent of health insurance premiums and 85 per cent of drug premiums. The board negotiating chairman, Cayley Hill of Goderich admitted the settlement is "higher than normal':.but is "in keeping with the times especially in the field of education." He said the agreement is a "satisfactory form of settlement ... but this is an unusual year from a cost standpoint." The agreement has already been ratified by the teachers. Meanwhile, negotiations with the 335 elementary school teachers are continuing.

Blyth student wins award in technical contest Recently, Ralph Hoba, son of Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Hoba of RR 3, Blyth and a mechanical technology student in the technical program at Central Huron Secondary School, brought distinction,, to himself and the school by winning second price in the technical contest sponsored by the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (London -St, Thomas Chapter). Each participating technical student was required to submit a 3,000 word technical production report on a major industry. These reports were evaluated for accuracy, English grammar, clarity and originality by company officials and the Education Committee of S.M.E. Ralph's report was written on "Zinc die casting" at Webster Manufacturing (London) Ltd.

C.H.S.S. cast gets congratulations from Ethel Merman BY SUSAN STREET The C.H,S,S. production of "Annie Get Your Gun" was bound to be a success. The musical comedy, written by Irving Berlin, is fast-moving and full of well known songs such as, "There's No Business Like Show Business", "You Can't Get a Man With a Gun" and "1 Got the Sun in The Morning". Beyond the merits of the nitisical itself, the cast included several experi- enced actors who carried the show. Jo Anne Snell was outstanding as "Annie". She developed the This 'n' That Final euchre party next Monday The final euchre party of the season will be held in the Memorial Hall on Monday night, Everyone attending is asked to bring some sandwiches or cookies. At the weekly euchre on Monday night, Mrs. Cummings won fhe high prize for the ladies. Nelson Radford won the high prize for the men. The low prizes went to Mrs, Nelson Radford and Edith Glousher, playing as a man. Mrs, .loc Holmes was the lady with the most lone hands and Bill Gow took the prize for the man with the most lone hands, The euchre party last ‘vt;ek was held on Tuesday night with ,10 tables in play.

Her opposite lead, Dave Thompson brought a mellow voice to NS Stock charactet partbf male chauvinist "Swollen headed Stiff." Rick Snell as manager and promoter of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, Rob Stirling as Buffalo Bill, and Paul Whaler as Sitting Bull all sang well and individualized their roles, Some of the most beautiful singing, however, was produced by the three train porters, Tim Jewson, Philip Street, and Burt Taylor as they harmonized to Annie's "Moonshine Lullaby", The new vocal music program at the highschool is to be credited with developing some of these voices. The pianist, Louise Lovett, played very well, and, with a better signalling system after Wednesday night, the scene changes were accomplished much faster. The only noticeable drawback in the show was the co-ordination of dancing and marching to the music. Although the choreo- graphy was appropriate, some of the actors didn't stem to feel the music or put much energy into their movements, This does not apply to the Indian scene, however, which was one of the emotional highlights of the show. Although Jo Anne, Rick, Rob and Paul are all grade 13 students and their loss will be felt in dramatic circles in the area, some new talent is already obvious in the person of Mike Nesbitt who played "Little Jake." A surprise cast, as well as the audience, was the reading of a telegram before the Friday night performance. C.H.S.S. was hon- oured by a message of congratu- lations by Ethel Merman, the singer for whom "Annie Get Your Gun" was first written.

Telephone 523-9666 Report from Queen's Park Government program 13Y MURRAY GAUNT M.P.P. (IIURON•BRUCI.) The Ontario Government is moving ahead with its pro- gramme to rid the countryside of about 400,000 abandoned and rusting vehicles, according to Environment Minister, William Newman Mr. Newman said he hopes the programme will eventually pay for itself in 16 areas of the Province. Municipalities will col - leo the abandoned vehicles, tow them to either existing recycling plants or new ones to be built, and keep whatever they are paid. It is felt that revenues should eventually reduce or eliminate the Province's subsidy, Where municipalities arc reluc- tant to enter the programme, the Ministry will buy land, collect the hulks and sell them. *** 'I'hc Ontario Government is going to abandon its tough policies that permit the subdivi- sion of farmland in only 25 acre parcels, and instead allow "Some rational use" of rural land for housing, Donald Irvine, Minister of Housing said in the Legisla- ture. The government has decided -that 25 acre parcels lead to wasteful use of land. The new policy which he THE BI.YTH STANDARD, MAY 21, 1975. PG. 3. to rid province of wrecked cars proposed to implement by Nov- ember 1st will give regional planning boards, or local land division committees the right to approve much smaller severances of one acre or Tess, where the local boards feel they will not be objectionable, or where they will meet new provincial guidelines, Under the plan farriers would be able to sell unconditionally parcels of their farms in any class of agricultural region to their employees, or to, relatives who want to build a residence on the lot, or to provide a home for retiring farmers, or to infill a vacant lot in an existing hamlet. In areas with less desirable agricultural land, sales would also Some tips on cutting down energy waste in your home The sidious thing is that you can see wasted food but you can't see wasted energy. Kilowatt hours are frittered away quietly and invisibly leaving behind only a few dollar figures on your electric bill that could be lower. 'fake the refrigerator and freezer, for example. Both operate 12 to 14 hours a day, constantly drawing electrical energy. Given proper care and use, however, they can be major energy savers. First of all, buy carefully and choose the size that suits your needs. A refrigerator or freezer will operate more economically when filled to capacity but not crammed with food. When having the refrigerator installed, keep in mind that it will use less energy if located awr from heating equipment ant' direct sunlight. Also, allow enough space for air to circulate around the unit. it's a good idea to make sure the appliance is not set to run colder than necessary. The manufacturer's manual will recommend the proper setting, When buying a used refrigera- tor (or checking the efficiency of the one you have now), test the rubber seal around the fridge and freezer door by closing the door on a sheet of paper. There should be a considerable drag when you yank the paper out. If not, the seal is worn or badly fitting and should be replaced, Check with the manufacturer for a spare. A badly scaled refrigerator can allow air leaks that make the appliance work harder to keep a uniformly cold temperature. And That means higher operating costs in terms of kilowatt consumption. Let hot foods cool down before storing in the fridge. Placing the hot pan or pot in cold water will reduce the temperature quickly. When the frost in your freezer is about one -quarter -inch thick, it's time to defrost. Frost wastes watts of cooling power by acting as an insulator, By the way, frost -free refriger- ators are great savers of your energy, but not of electricity. A standard 14 -cubic -foot refrigera- tor -freezer uses about 950 kilo- watt hours (kWh) of electricity a year. A frost -free model of the same size uses about 1,500 kWh. That's about 50 percent more energy per year for this feature. A frost -free refrigerator docs re- quire attention to make sure it's not draining power unnecessarily. A blocked condensate drain, for example, will cause build-up of ice on the coils and cut down on the cooling power. You might check the manufacturer's manual to find out exactly where the drain is located (it varies with various models), and make sure the drain is unclogged. The condensor coils should also be wiped or vacuumed from time to time. In most models they're found at the back of the unit, although in some newer refrigera- tors they're found below, pro- tected by a grill. Remove the front grill for cleaning. Taking off on. vacation? If your refrigerator is fairly empty you can safely lower the temperature. If you are away for a long period of time, and your freezer and fridge are emptied, unplug the appliance and leave the doors open, he permitted to any purchaser as long as the subdivision complies with local planning goals or official plans. Mr. Irvine indicated there 'i11 likely be local planning controls that would prohibit such devel- opment along major county roads, or highways where they might cause traffic headaches. *** Grants for the implementation of the Ontario Home Renewal Programme (OHRP) have been allocated to several additional Ontario municipalities, including the Town of Kincardine, Housing Minister Donald Irvine announ- ced this week. OHRP provides per capita grants to Ontario municipalities to administer directly as loans to homeowner occupants to repair their houses to an acceptable municipal minimum standard. Kincardine has been allocated $9,637.00 at this time which represents 25 per cent of the total 1975-76 funding designated un- der OHRP for the municipality. The prime objective of the programme is the correction of faulty structural and sanitary conditions and the upgrading of plumbing, heating and electrical systems of 'the owner occupant's home. "01-1 RP is directly oriented to low and moderate income famil- ies, with a maximum annual income of $12,500", Mr. Irvine said. "Kincardine is to be congratulated for its initiative in moving quickly to implement this program, which ensures the continued usefulness of needed existing housing." 'I'hc maximum amount of an OHRP loan, as determined by the local municipality, is $7,500, Tess any funding from other honk renewal programmes. The muni- cipality is also responsible for determining the rate of interest charged on the loan, from zero to eight per cent, and what portion of the loan will be "forgiven", and therefore need not be paid back. OHRP extends home renewal possibilities to owner occupants in any municipality in Ontario, urban or rural, which has adopted either a minimum( housing stand- ards bylaw or a resolution setting such standards.

Une by one the area municipalities are bringing in their 1975 budgets and one by one the taxpayers are finding they're going to have to shell out a lot of extra cash this year to meet the tax bill. In nearly every case, the cause of the tax increase is not the spending of the local municipality, or even the school board. The cause of the big jump is the county government. The growth of the county government has been phenominal in the past live years. Spurred on by the dark cloud of regional government hanging over their heads. the county legislators have been trying to provide more and more services, The result has been an escalation of the county budget that most people wouldn't have believed could have happened a decade ago. The rate has nearly doubled in two years, We are now faced with the same situation with county government that we have with the county school board with a burgeoning county hureac•racy earning with higher salaries than the vast majority of the people who are expected to pay their bills. The county legislators have been trying to make Huron a model for the rest of the province in their attempts to fend off the goverment's thinly -veiled threats of regional government and they've made some wise moves. Huron is a leader in the drive to preserve valuable farming land. It has pioneered in other areas too. But it is about time that the county legislators began to realize that this expansion can't go on forever. It is about time they took a look at the present govcrmental set up in the county town and tried to make some cost-cutting moves. It is about time they took a look at the,county staff and found out who is earning their salaries and who isn't and got rid of the dead wood. The beauty of having our own county government rather than regional government is that we have the power to run our own ship. If the county legislators don't take advantage of that power, we're losing our edge. With the way the county budget is soaring, some people arc already mumbling that regional government couldn't be much worse. If the county legislators don't tighten up the purse strings, we may see regional government despite their efforts to keep it out. The present spending binge is the best ally the government can have in its attempt to convince people that regional government is necessary. A cheering example Many people probably applauded the stand of maverick former Manitoba cabinet minister Joe Borowski last week when he went to jail for a matter of principal. Mr. Borowski went to jail for failing to file his income tax return last year which is a federal crime. It wasn't a case of him shirking on paying his income tax, just that he refused to file his return as a form of protest. The point he was protesting was that his taxes were being used' to pay for free abortions through the medicare plan which is partially federally funded. Mr. Borowski is among those in the country who see abortion as an immoral act and therefore he feels his own •money is being used to commit an act he feels is immoral. Many would argue with this cause, but most probably applaud the sentiment. He isn't the first to try such a protest. Back during the Vietnam war, singer Joan Baez every year refuses to pay that portion of her taxes she felt went toward the war effort. We never heard what became of her protest. For Mr. Borowski, it meant a five day jail sentence (he eventually got two days off for good behavior). He's out of jail now but expects to be back in again soon because he didn't send in this year's return either. His point, and the point of Miss Baez is that there is something wrong with having to pay the shot for something you violently disagree with. There is something immoral about being forced to support somethin2 you feel is immoral. The world their oyster Americans often wonder why nobody seems to like them.) Individually, they are as nice people as one could expect to meet. But collectively they have the ingrained way of looking at the world as their oyster that somehow gets on the nerves of those of us who don't happen to live in the U.S.A. That view, which goes back to the days of manifest destiny when the Americans felt their nation was destined to show the world how it should be run, surfaced again last week in the capture and freeing of the American merchant ship Mayaguez. Most Canadians probably supported the action to rescue the ship which had been taken over by the new Cambodian government's forces when it was on the high seas. In fact Canadians probably looked on a little wistfully wondering what would have happened if it had been a Canadian ship and our own wishy-washy government leaders had been faced with the problem. Still smarting from its wounded pride over the loss of the wars in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, the U.S. reacted quickly; perhaps, as it seems in retrospect, a little two quickly for its own good. But in its reaction it thoughtlessly trampled on the rights of another government, the government of Thailand. It mounted it's attacks on Cambodia from bases in Thailand, even though the Thai government had said it wanted no part of the whole affair and ordered U.S. troops out of the country. But one ship was more important to the U.S. than the sovereignty of a whole nation. Their own pride at having a tiny nation hijack a ship was more important to them than the pride of another nation in holding soverignty over its own soil. Indeed, surrounded as it is by the new communist states Thailand is in a precarious state and the actions of the U.S. could provide the excuse for the new regimes in Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia to invade to rid the area of the U.S. influence. One ship was more irnportant than the fate of a whole nation, And at that, nearly as many men died freeing the ship as were on the ship in the first place. As long as the U.S. feels it has the right to ride rough shod over the feelings of people in other nations; as long as it feels itlias the right to interfere in the internal affairs of another nation to protect American interests; as long as it insists on being able to invade any country in the globe to protect American citizens who may be in danger; as long as it insists on having a finger in every pie in the world, then it cannot expect to be liked and admired around the world. The flowers of May Those were 5 years ago WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 1970 The Blyth Lions club celebrated their 25th anniversary on Thurs- day evening, May 14 with a dinner and dance held in the Memorial Hall. Past International Director Jack Filkin was guest speaker for the occasion. Twenty- five year certificates were pre- sented to Lions Frank Bainton, Norm Garrett and George Radford. Blyth Women's Institute cele- brated their 60th anniversary on Tuesday, May 12. Mrs. Zoeller, F.W,I,O. president was the main speaker. Plans are well advanced to honour the successful Blyth Legion Squirt hockey team at a banquet in the Memorial Hall on Friday evening, May 29. It is hoped that Johnny Bower will be available to attend the festivities, 10 years ago WEDNESDAY, MAY 19, 1965 Although local farmers have carried out seeding operations this spring on a "catch as catch can" basis, this area has weathered the stormy 1965 spring quite a bit better than many district centres. Frequent rains have made seeding here a rather nerve wracking experience, Grocery ad prices listed as follows: 6 oz. instant coffee, 97c; '/ gallon ice cream, 79c; 21/2 Ib. shortening, 99c; chicken legs or breasts, 2 for 99c; peanut butter, 18 oz, for 2 for 99c; and potatoes, 10 lb. for 59e. Next Tuesday night a definite decision will be made as to whether an attempt will be made to install artificial ice in the Blyth arena. At an April meeting it was made known that close to $25,000 would be needed to finance the project. 20 years ago WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 1955 Thousands of people from all over Western Ontario were the days present for the Second Annual Western Ontario Trade Fair held at the Community Centre grounds, Blyth last week. The parade on Tuesday evening presented quite a spectacle, from the fleet of huge transports operated by Campbell Bros. of Blyth to a herd of turkey, dressed for the occasion in their best bib and tucker from the turkey farms of Robert Wallace. The Dr, Ballard Mutt Show attracted considerable attention, Winners were: largest dog, Jim Henry and Brian Spiegelberg; smallest dog, Douglas Hamilton and Glenyce Bainton; dog with longest tail, Jim Henry; best dressed dog, Nancy Campbell and Diane Radford. Sports fans in this district will be particularly interested in the Huron -Perth Baseball League this season because of the Intermed- iate entry placed in the League by the Village of Auburn which has been the mainstay of baseball in this district for the past several years with their classy minor teams. On Tuesday evening, May 17, a family gathering met at the home of Mr, and Mrs. George W. Carter of Londesboro to honour Mr. Hugh Campbell of Walton on his 93rd birthday. 30 years ago WEDNESDAY, MAY 23,1945 The regular monthly meeting of the Municipal Council of the Corporation of Blyth was held on May 14 with Reeve Morritt and Councillors Kernick, Vodden and Wright present. It was moved, that in view of the estitnated expenditures, that the mill rate for the Village will be set at 35 mills Tess one mill provincial subsidy for a final mill rate of 34 mills, It was also moved that the municipal rate for men hired to work for the Corporation be 40 cents per hour. The C.C.F. Party held a meeting in the Memorial Hall Tuesday night. Both federal and provincial candidates were pre- sent , the former being Morley Mills of Ripley, and the latter, W. C. King of Morris Township. 50 years ago THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1925 The Standard has made arrangements with the Family Herald and Weekly Star whereby we can offer new subscribers both papers for the remainder of 1925 for the small stun of $2.70. The play, "Patty Makes Things Hum" will be presented by the Y.P.S. of St. Andrew's Church in Memorial Hall on Friday, May 22. The brick work on the new- post office was commenced on Friday. Mr, Robert Howard has the work in hand. N.D.P. studies energy conservation At a meeting in Bayfield of Huron -Middlesex New Demo- crats, the topic of energy conservation in Ontario was the main item on the aganda. An extensive paper on the topic was presented by Phillip R. Walker, the former owner/operator of the Oakwood inn and Golf Club, Grand Bend. The paper. was prepared in response to the recent announcements by the • Provincial and Federal Ministries of Energy indicating programme to be undertaken in two jurisdic- tions. Mr. Walker has suggested that the recently published booklet, "100 ways to Save Energy in the Home", the Honourable D, MacDonald, Federal Minister of Energy, has "just scratched the surface." "Since the construction of a home obviously preceeds its management. 1 think we should talk about that first," he commented, "Revision of the building code should be under- taken to considerably increase in the insulating requirements in all Continued on Page 5 This week 1 1la(1 the chore of sorting through a huge pile of applications for a job 011 our high school staff teaching English.

KRAFT vast change that has taken place since I began teaching, about 15 years ago. Those were the days when the great post-war baby boons was hitting the high schools, Principals ‘Vere raiding indus- try for technical teachers, busi- ness for commercial teachers. If you had a university degree, it was a much as your life was worth to walk past a school. A lasso would snake out, you'd find yourself getting a hot sales pitch in a principal's office, and next thing you knew were standing in front of 35 kids with your mouth hanging open. Anyone who was not obviously (Trunk or noticeably retarded had a pretty fair chance of winding up in teaching. One daily newspaper ran pages and pages oI' teacher -wanted advertisements each spying, and school boards spent hundreds of thousands ()I' dollars on advcrtis• ing. I remember one spring when I could have taken Illy pick of 28 jobs as an English department head, by picking up the phone. '('hose were fat times for the young graduating teachers, too. Armed with nothing more than a penny B.A., they could pretty well pick and choose where they wanted to work and live. Each spring there was an,event which came to be known rather cynically as "the cattle market," School boards from all over the province would take over a big hotel in the city. Potential teachers would Bock in by the thousands. It was a seller's market. The student teacher walked the halls, checked the signs on doors. If he deigned to knock, he was snatched through the door by a principal, had coffee or Some- thing stronger forced on him, generally given the glad hand and usually assured a job, even if "he" happened to be a bald female with green teeth, Of course, the pay wasn't much then, about $4,000 to start, but that was worth more than twice as much as it is now. When I was hired, I wrote a letter applying for the only English teaching job left in the province. The principal 1VaS on the phone the minute he got my letter. Ile couldn't believe that I had an honor degree in English. Apparently I was the only person left in Canada with such a degree who wasn't leaching. .lust two years later, 1 had a department headship forced on me. I didn't particularly want it. Ryerson Institute wanted Inc to go there and teach journalism. The president of Waterloo Uni- versity wanted me to go there and handle public relations and teach ,some English. If I were fired tomorrow, with my honors degree and 15 years experience, I'd be lucky to get a job in Nooknik. teaching English As A Second Language to Eskimo kids. I checked with live of my colleagues in the English depart- ment who entered teaching (luring those halcyon years. Three ()I' the live were hired by phone, sight unseen. Now, we sort through a vast sheaf of applications. here's a guy with a 13.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in English. Discard hint. Over- educated, no experience.

And what we narrow it down to six or eight, they have to show up for a ,gruelling interview (gruell- ing for me too) and may have driven 3011 utiles for il, and drive home with nothing to show for it but a hearty "'Thank you for coating." The whole thing makes me sick. 'There's a great waste of talented young teachers, many of wont, in (disgust, go into some other way of making a living. '('here's a whole slew of old teachers still in harness, who are hanging un because archaic regulations make them hang on until they are loo old and sick and stupid and tired to be of any use to anyone, merely to draw their pensions. Surely in a country with our resources, and in an age when the computer can make accurate projections, we can do better than use this outmoded system of supply and demand, which may be all right for the cattle market, but all wrong for human beings.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 21, 1975, Separate school board to move offices to Dublin BY WILMA OKE The Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board will move its administra- tive offices from Seaforth to Dublin this summer it was revealed at a board meeting held in Seaforth Monday night, May 12. Trustee Michael Connolly, Kippcn, in releasing the details of the stove, said the board offices in Seaforth have been cramped for space and the parking facilities have been inadequate. The board offices have been located on the Main Street in Seaforth since shortly after the formation of the county board in 1969. After July 1 they will be moved to the building housing the former Dublin high school and the Ursuline Order convent. Mr. Connolly said the Ursuline Order will be vacating the convent at the end of the school term in June after 60 years of service in the community. The two teaching sisters will remain on the school board staff and take up residence in the Ursuline Convent in Stratford. Sister Florence Kelly is principal at St. Patrick's elementary school in Dublin and Sister Marian is principal at St. Columban ele- mentary school. Mr. Connolly said the board has leased the building for a five-year period from the St. Patrick's Parish at Dublin and the Episcopal Corporation for the Agricultural Tidbits Farms have to look on the bright side WITH ADRIAN VOS Ton upon ton of seed grain is going into the soil at this time and every right thinking farmer is optimistic that this will be the year of high yields and at the same time high prices. He has to think that way or he will get discouraged and give up. It doesn't work very often like that however, for if yield is high in our country, it usually is the same in other grain producing countries and we are faced with an over -supply, which in turn has a depressing effect on prices. Despite the cries of those that are really concerned about feeding the unfortunates of this world, high yields and high supplies do not avert starvation. The price of one ton of wheat for instance, even if it is way below our production cost, is in many cases more than the breadwinner in some countries earn in a whole year. So if they could buy it, it would still eave their families starving on an insufficient amount of low protein rations with nothing left for clothing and housing and birth - control devices. An answer would in many cases be to supply them with knowhow, quality seed and fertilizer as well as simple hand operated machinery and irrigation systems. In that case they could often feed their families and sell surplusses to their own country men for clothing and housing. If at the same time we eivc their country -men grain at no or little cost, it ruins their internal market and our well intentioned 3 C's meet The Blyth 3 c's met at the public school. The meeting was opened with the pledge followed by roll call which showed a total loss of 23 lbs. and a gain of 8 lbs. Queen of the week was Erma Cook with a loss of 8 lbs. Lucky Draw winner was Thelma Deveau. Plans were made for our next meeting, followed by exercises in the gym. Club meets BY CHRISTINE CHALMERS The first meeting of the Blyth Dirt Diggers was held on May 14 at Nancy Carter's. The meeting was opened with the 4-H pledge. The election of officers took place and were as follows: Sherri Marshall as president; Karen Richmond, secretary; and Christine Chal- mers as press reporter. Cheryl Hessels led in a discussion on benefits oi" a garden, where to plant' one, reasons for growing flowers and what an annual flower is. The girls had a quiz on gardens. The next meeting will be held on May 20 at Cheryl Hessels at 8:00 p.m. The meeting was closed with the 4-H motto. gesture will do more harm than good. This type of help should be given, but only in emergencies arising out of natural disasters. The cry of some vegetarian organizations to condemn the eating of meat because that takes away grain from the starving in the world is therefore completely irresponsible. Even if no more grain was fed to beef and hogs and poultry, it wouldn't put an ounce of bread on a` table in the Sahely or Bangla Desh. Dr. Bruce Taylor, an animal scientist at the University of Arizona has cone up with some interesting figures on beef. A ton of corn contains 160 lbs. of cereal protein. This ton produces 112 lbs. of animal protein. If you convert this in protein utilized by the human body, it conies out exactly the same at 90 lbs. 1 would rather eat meat than corn. How about you? Diocese of London. The kinder- garten class for St. Patrick's School arca which has been using a room in the former high school part of the building, will continue in that location under the new arrangement. The agreement calls for St. Patrick's parish to collect $1,000 per month for the building and at the end of the five-year rental term the board has the right to purchase the building for its continued use as a board office. Richard Box, owner of the building housing the present board offices, will be notified his premises will be vacated by the end of the present lease in January, 1976. In other business the board agreed to send three board members to the Canadian Catho- lic School Trustees Association Convention its St. John's New- foundland, From June 25 to June 27: Chairman David Teahen of Stratford; Ted Geoffrey, Zurich and Donald Crowley, Gadshill; and alternate, Arthur Haid, RR 4, Listowel. The Board approved a 1975-76 school bus schedule of approxi- mately 15 per cent increase over last year's. Trustee Donald Crowley was named to attend a testimonial dinner in Toronto on May 16 for Monsignor Hardy of Hamilton. Board approval was given several changes its updating board policies as outlined by Stratford trustee Howard Shantz. A new policy approved called for copies of general minutes of all board meetings to be sent to separate school representatives on the Perth County and the Huron County Boards of Educa- tion in order to keep them conversant with its general business.

PG. 7. From the Minister's Study Presbyterian Women hold rally at Keep the Sabbath holy Hensall BY TED IIOOGSTEEN BLYTII CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH Actin's( all the social unrest complained about, the labour problems,' the inflationary spiral, unenmploynient, and what is called government mismanagement, there is the pleasurable tendency to blanc someone or something, it is human, it seems to find fault, or a scapegoat. But fault-finding causes divisiveness, one social segment pitted against another, each self-righteously denying greed and fault, Suppose, for a moment, that the problem lays elsewhere, not in one social group or human organization, like labour, but in our culture as a whole, and that this present social unrest is rather a form of punishment upon a nation or culture disobedient to God. This is not a strange way of thinking. When one reads the Scriptures, there arc real eye-openers; for instance, Israel's response to the fourth commandment: "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy." (Ex 20, 8ff.) For the people of Israel, this sabbath day was the seventh day of the week, which for the Christian Church became the first day of the week, Regardless of this change, the meaning of Sunday remains basically identical to the sabbath, it must be a special and holy day, for God made this sabbath a sign between him and Israel (we would say the Church) of his care and love. (Ezekiel 20.12) However, Israel, say the Scriptures, profaned that sabbath day (Ez 20. 13.21), and therefore, God uprooted them, allowed them to be oppressed by strange nations, and brought great social unrest in their midst. The supposition I present is that the basic cause of all the social unrest of our day is rooted , in the cultural mismanagement and profaning of the Lord's Day, a supposition that is biblical, Whether or not one believes in God, his commandments regarding the sabbath/Sunday stand for all peoples and must be kept. For the Church this ought to be a thankful response, and for all others a necessity in order they not destroy themselves. When the Lord's Day is made another work day, or a day of pleasure and recreation, in whatever form it may come, it is a day used to serve oneself and not God. Then it is perverted as a sign of God's providential care. My concern is for justice, The blame ought not to'be placed, first of all, upon labour unions, or upon the economic establishment, nor upon the government, or greed in general, but it ought to be recognized for what it is, a cultural rebellion against God. The result of this rebellion is punishment in the form of social unrest, and possibly even oppression by a foreign power. God wants a specific response from people, and that response is obedience, that it may go well with all of us, and with our children, and that we niay prolong the days in the land which the Lord was given to us (cf Deut 4.40); this applied to Israel, and, 1 think, still today. The message from Ez 20.1 cff is clear enough: for profaning the sabbath day Israel suffered much misery; this message still applies. The Empty Pew We have the power to create our futures BY W. JENE MILLER The great "War -for -the - Future" was over and we stood looking at the wreckage. We shuddered at the carnage of shattered dreams, personal con- flicts, lost values and confusing opportunities. So it is after every battle: we sec the ruins and think the war still smolders within them. The reality is that just because the past is demolished the future will be our own! There is a lost, dead heritage which we hate to lose. There is also an open and utterly undetermined future to be built, We arc no longer chained to patterns and mistakes to past generations, however effective they might have been, then. Our tears and flights, our fears and sleepless nights have paid the price for God's new creating of His own New Earth. If we sec the present wreckage as a continuation of the past, and if we return to the ways of hate and fear, distrust and unfaithful- ness -in -loving, only then have we struggled in vain. The challenge of the past is never to repeat it, but better it; never to deny it, but to learn from it; never to worship it, but to worship the God who destroys every Today in order to make room for Tomorrow! The blessings of the past are most vivid in the lessons they teach about the nature of the building of a world, not the • You only look as good as you feel. 4/1 paRnapacnvn Fitness.

New look in formal wear makes the groom stand out When it comes to a wedding, it's tradition that the bride is star of the show. No one notices the bridegroom unless he happens to forget the ring. But weddings are changing. Not only are ceremonies simpler and music lighter, but the new nu'n's formal wear alloys the bridegroom to share some of the spotlight on the wedding day. 'today there is a definite trend towards new styling in wedding attire for men. The young husbands -to -be are picking it up (uickly. h is one way they can acid a new and modern touch to their wedding without violating any established traditions. The new look for the bride- grooni is elegant and regal. It is based on the Prince Albert coat, which was popular at the start of the twentieth century. The dinner jacket is extra long, high -button- ing, and features a square cut bottom. It is extremely shaped, so the prospective bridegroom would do well to stay trim for his wedding clay. For a daytime wedding the jacket is gray. For a wedding in the evening, it's black. Both jackets feature velvet collars and lapels edged in braid. With the gray daytime jacket, the bridegroom wears gray striped trousers, a wing collar shirt and striped tie, For evening black trousers match the jacket and the bridegroom wears a formal shirt with a boy tie, Otherwise, weddings still are governed by rules. if the bridegroom prefers the standard wedding attire, he should remem- ber that his outfit is determined by the bride's gown and the tiri)c of day for the ceremony. If it's going to be a daytime sem i•for ma1 wedding (which means it's only somewhat less than formal), he should wear a short black or oxford gray "stroller." He wears it with either a matching gray or white vest and a white shirt and tic of subdued pattern - usually a gray moire stripe or a small black and white check. For an evening semi -formal � wedding, the bridegroom has a choice of either white or black dinner jacket, perhaps with satin faced lapels. For this occasion, he should forego the colorful evening shirts, cummerbunds and access- ories which are currently popular, but are considered too informal for a wedding ceremony, If the bride wants a formal Young couple should start with furniture basics Most young marrieds live first in a home that is only a temporary dwelling. With the arrival of children and increased financial security, they soon move on to a larger apartment or a house of their own. Since this is the case, budget- ing for newlyweds is quite a different thing than for others. Because of the first home's transitory nature, it usually is wise to budget more heavily on things which may be moved easily and fit well in any decor, For the rest, do it as inexpensively as you , can and make it as gay and as much fun as possible. Mistakes, will be made, but remember it is a try -out period for a more thought-out home of the future. In most cases the budget of newlyweds is limited, hense splurge on color. Paints and wood stains can cover a multitude of sins. Stain your floors dark and use inexpensive area rugs on them. They can go with you to your next abode. Paint your walls a color you like .and use wallpaper borders to achieve architectural detail and dimension. To get a texture effect, which is always good, use burlap, ticking or wallpaper on your walls or vinyl if the walls are in poor condition; it: holds them together.

PG. 11, $1.25 camera started McDowell on photography career A hobby turned into a business for photographer. A hobby that started with a camera, worth $1.25 has turned into a life-long occupation for Blyth photographer Harvey McDowell. Harvey probably the busiest wedding photographer in the area has provided pictures for about 1,000 wedding couples since he first shot a wedding for a friend in 1948, His first interest in photography goes back to when he was in his 20's and got his first camera, a simple Kodak baby brownie bought from a mail prder catalogue. A cousin knew about the photographic developing and his interest in photography grew. He had an uncle who used to visit and bring along his expensive camera and Harvey wondered why his uncle's pic- tures were so much clearer than his. Later, when he got his first more expensive camera he found out. He went through a succes- sion of cameras, each a little better than the previous one as he became more and more fascina- ted by taking pictures.. It was 1948 when a friend asked him to photograph his wedding. He had no flash at the time so all the pictures had to be taken outside, Even later, when he did get flash equipment, the cost of bulbs was discouraging enough that he took most pictures outside. He charged 10 cents a print at the time with each print actually costing him five cents, It was obvious he didn't think in terms of photography as being a source of income. But word of mouth got around about his photography and within two or three years he was up to doing 20 weddings a year. "It's the best business we could ever be in", he says, for himself and his wife Ferne who usually is along helping him. They get invited to all the wedding dinners of course and through this have got to meet a good many nice people, and to meet them as friends, he says because he has a closer relation- ship to his customers than most professional photographers. He reached a high of 59 weddings in one year, one short of a goal he had set for himself of 60. That was in the day, however, Harvey McDowell, Blyth when most Catholic weddings were still in the mornings so that he could cover a wedding in the morning and one or more in the afternoon. He recalls once cover- ing a wedding in the Walkerton area and then driving 70 miles in an hour and a half to be at a wedding in Exeter. He once had three weddings in one day: one at Chepstow at 10 a.m., one at Auburn at noon and one in Clinton at 4 p.m. That was the same time he was coming down with an illness and Ferne drove him between weddings while he rested, He rested during the ceremonies too. He managed to get through the hectic day but the illness got him down and by the next weekend he was immobilized and missed the only wedding assignment he ever missed in his life, one right in Blyth. Now he's averaging about SO weddings a year, though he is asked to do more but can't work them all into his schedule, Most weddings are now held in late afternoon on Saturdays although the recent trend to Friday evening weddings has helped out, allow- ing him to shoot two weddings in one weekend. ( Back in those beginning days he still considered photography a hobby that tact to be worked in around his regular farm work on the family farm in the Westfield area. I-lc'd do farm work until about nine at night that come in a and have a sleep for about an hour. Then Ferric would wake him up, feed him a cup of coffee to help him keep going and the two of them would work until .midnight or sometimes two in the morning to printing the pictures he had taken the weekend before. More than farm work necessi- tated the working schedule. The couple didn't have a darkroom and so had to wait until after dark before beginning the work of printing their pictures. They'd hang a safe light (a coloured light that won't affect the light-sensi- tive photographic paper) above the kitchen table and put the enlarger on the table. As they began to shoot more and more weddings this often became something that kept going into the wee hours of the morning three and four times a week. It didn't take too much of this sort of punishment before they began to realize that this was more than just a sideline, Harvey built a dark room and began taking time away from the farm work for photography. As mentioned earlier, the changes in equipment over the years have brought changes in the way he covers a wedding. When flash bulbs were used he used them only for action shots such as the bridal couple coming down the isle and took along photo -flooded lights for other shots. These, of course were bulky and hard to transport and to set up so he began taking as many pictures as possible outside, usually on the church steps. He would set up the picture and welcome any other people in the group who had cameras to take• pictures as well. The more recent advent of the modern electronic flash equip- ment means that most pictures are usually taken indoors these days. He's worked out all kinds of ingenious short cuts to help him work fast and come up with the best quality by lessening the chance of goofs. He's seen quite a few changes in weddings over .the years too. One is the shortening of the Catholic wedding ceremony. Another change is.in the sytle of the wedding apparel. When he began, he recalls, all wedding gowns were long and flowing from the waist while the bridesmaids had flowing, knee- length dresses. It made it difficult to pose the wedding party because the flowing skirts made it hard to get people close together. He remembers the first wedding when he saw the new, narrow styled gowns and was "appalled". He thought it would never catch on. But it did, and it made his work much easier.

Another change over the years is from black and white to colour for wedding pictures. He took black and white up until two years ago taking both black and white and coloured at weddings in the past few years. Now, all weddings are done in colour. He regrets that it means he no longer does everything himself because the developing and printing of the pictures is now done by a Get your house's More than any other single pt•oduel round on 0 house, roofing and N ng are exposed to the elenl�, r� ,only and their condition ; \ Nally important for the protection of the home- owner's investment, according to the National Honk Improvement Council, Today's roofing shingles come with guarantees that range from I0 to 25 years. At current average prices, that means that a shingled roof will protect a house from the elements for less than $30 per year and will remain virtually maintenance -free while doing it, Appearances are deceiving when it comes to judging the 'nodi ion of a roof. Moisture seeping' through unseen leaks dolm to the roof structure and into the walls can cause serious damage to the home before the homeowner becomes aware of the need for a new roof. A profession roofing man should be paid to inspect the roof at least every three years. Sun causes appreciably more damage than winds or rain to the root'. Warped, cracked or missing shingles are definite signs that surface repairs are in order. They may also point to more serious damage underneath. Moisture in the walls, flaking plaster inside or processing lab in the city, but it also saves some problems. He's taking more studio pic- tures these days as well, When they sold their farm in Westfield to the Maitland Valley Conserva- tion Authority two years ago and moved into their house in Blyth, they installed a studio in one end of the large basement. Now, with the studio and the equipment he has to use it seems a long way back to that first baby brownie. It's been interesting along the way, though, and as Harvey says, "I should have written a book." roof in shape peeling paint outside might also indicate that the roof k no longer doing its job. Ovcr•roofing with 0 variety of shakes or shingles may be • the answer to your roofing problem. Over -roofing has the advantage of quickly transforming your house without muss and litter because your old roof remains in place, contributing insulation and pro- tection against the unexpected rainstorm during application. Roofing products range from asbestos and asphalt shingles to red cedar and other wood shakes and shingles. Products available on the siding market are numerous. One such product is sold vinyl siding. •I•Itis material can't rot, blister, peel or decay. It doesn't even require painting, and colors permeate the material, so they. won't disappear with the ravages of weather or time. Vinyl also has insulating properties which make it attractive during these days of energy concern. Aluminum siding also offers '•1w maintenance qualities, plus a number of r,.,eresting embossed woodgrain effects. Baked on colors prevent chipping, blister- ing and flakine.

He's your new husband, and the fact of his being there is something to consider when you begin to plan on linen and general bedroom decor. You're probably use(1 to a room of your own, Even if you've been sharing an apartment with other girls, you've most likely had an opportunity to really express youself in its decoration, But no it isn't your bedroom anymore; it is yours and his. And his needs, interests and habits must be taken into consideration. Here are three main hints on smoothing the way: Know what he likes. Some men couldn't care Icss what kind of More sheets they sleep on. Others are horrified at the prospect of crawiin' in between rosebud - bedecked sheets, or drying themselves w1ih towels daintily en rboidercd with lilies of the valley.

Know what he doesn't like, Most inen hate clutter. You may be accustomed to keeping your cosmetics handily arrayed on your and more More and more young working couples who want a larger and more elaborate wedding than would be possible, while keeping within the bride's parents' financial means, are paying all or part of the costs traditionally borne by the bride and her family. For example, a couple who wants steak instead of the chicken that the bride's budget calls for may elect to pay the price difference themselves. Or if the couple wants more guests than the bridal budget allows for, they may chip in the additional cash, It's not unusual - even if Emily Po'st won't agree • for the groom or the groom's family to assume some expenses traditionally borne by the bride - particularly if the groom's family is consider- ably wealtheir than that of the bride. If the groom himself is financially established he may wish to foot all the wedding expenses. (In keeping with propriety, however, he should not pay for the more intimate items in his bride's trousseau). Sometimes, particularly when the bride has no family, the groom's family will make the couple a gift of the entire wedding and get much pleasure by doing so. One mother of a recent groom explained the situation thus: "When my son, a recent college graduate, got engaged he and his fiancee came to us and explained that because of the bride's family circumstances • her father was dead and she was sending herself through college - they would be unable to have an elaborate reception unless we helped out, And an eleaborate wedding with the works was what they both wanted. We're well able to afford it so we offered to pay for everything. Not only did they get what they wanted, but it made us very happy too; it's a gift which will always give us cherishable memories." Even the formal etiquette books have bent in recent years and now list several expenses that are optional or set by local custom. However, in most cases these so-called optional expenses don't given any financial break to the father of the bride - they only add to his burden. Items in this classification include: Bride's bouquet, traditionally a gift from the groom, may be purchased by bride's family as part of her outfit. Bachelor dinner is given by groom in some areas; by his attendants in others. Rehearsal dinner may be hosted by either the bride's or groom's family. Bridesmaids' luncheon usually given by the bride, may be given by the attendants, Corsages for mothers and grandmothers are usually provid- ed by the groom but the bride may buy those for her own mother and grandmother. I For those who believe in complying with etiquette rules to the letter of the law, here's a traditional, etiquette -sanctioned breakdown of other wedding expenses: dresser or on the bathroom vanity. Now that you're married, transfer them to a drawer, out of sight between use. Hiding the cosmetics has another advantage in that it helps to avoid difficult moments such as when he asks you how hutch that little box of six eycshadows cost. Most men also dislike; dainty hand towels that are too small to dry their hands on; velvet bedroom chairs that they can't sit comfortably in, piles of decorative pillows that must be moved every time one wishes to use the chair, and loose throw rugs that slip whenever they're stepped on. Your husband will have his own pet list of dislikes; find them out before they create a problem, Make the bed. Nothing de- moralizes a man more than the sight of an unmade bed. And don't wait until breakfast is over before tackling this chore • make the bed as soon as both of you are out of it in the morning. The bride who is looking for some inexpensive ideas may find several of the following sugges- tions useful, *Decorate the complete room in shades of just one color - your favorite naturally. •Paint a view on your bedroom window if there's not one there, Feature a skyline, a garden, a mountain, •Define a sitting or study area by painting the wall a contrasting color at that end of the room. couples sharing wedding costs Groom or his family pays for: Bride's engagement and wedd- ing rings Marriage license Clergyman's fee Gifts for best man and ushers; gloves, tics and ascots for men in wedding party Complete wedding trip Wedding gift for bride Lodging for out-of-town ushers Bride or her family pays for: Invitations and her personal stationery Wedding dress, accessories, trousseau Photographers and flowers for church and reception Rental fee for church; fees for organist and soloist Reception, including food, bev- erages, music Bouquet for maid of honor, bridesmaids, flower girl and gifts for her attendants Groom's wedding ring Transportation of bridal party to church and reception Lodging for out-of-town brides- maids Gift to the groom. The traditions of toasting observed Who toasts whom at the reception of the bride and groom is a question which arises at each wedding, And despite the popularity and repetition of traditional toasts, no one can remember exactly how it's to be done. To be certain that no deserving person is left unthanked admidst the excite- ment, make sure the following toasts are included at your wedding reception. •To the bride: Proposed by clergyman or family friend. Response by. the groom, who thanks the toaster, adds his own compliments to his bride, thanks guests for their presence and kindnesses, her parents for the wedding and his own for their assistance, invites guests to visit them at later date. *To bridesmaids: Proposed by the groom, immediately after his response to the first toast.

That's the worst punishment she can think of. Nine-year-old Terry has been at school for several years now but until last term he was there in body only. He wasn't in- terested and didn't learn. Now he is in a special class, working at the upper level of. Grade one. Though that is behind his age group, Terry really loves school, he wants to learn and his progress is steady. Terry is a handsome boy, Anglo-Saxon in descent. Ile has blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin sprinkled with freckles. Ile is in excellent health. When Terry was a baby, he was diagnosed as having hydrocephalus ( abnormal build-up of fluid inside the skull). The condition corrected itself and has caused no concern since then. Since Terry was not on a level with his contemporaries in school he didn't like playing with children his own age. in his frustration at not being able to keep up with them. he frequently used to lose his temper and fight. 1 lis relations with o;.ier children have now improved greatly and he can share group activitie.i such as floor hockey. Ile still prefers adult company. There's nothing this youngster likes better than sharing some grownup chores. He really works too! 'ferry needs a warm, understanding family who will give him much love and attention plus encouragement without pressure in his school endeavors.

Among the various home decorating products, carpeting was purchased by 7.7 million households during the st 12 months, second only to interior paint in popularity. Since carpeting, wall-to-wall or an arca rug, is a major investment that often becomes the basis for other home decorating activities, it's a good idea to know what to look for and how to care for it, say experts from the Eureka Home Care Institute. Here's a brief rundown of the five major carpet fibers and their properties: WOOL: The "champagne of carpeting," is long -wearing, easy to clean, resists soil well, but is very expensive. NYLON: Its extra -strength and good wearing quality make it exec, at for high traffic areas. Resilience (how well it springs back after crushing) is medium to excellent, depending upon con- struction. Nylon soils readily but is easy to clean. ACRYLIC: Slightly more dur- able than wool, but not as durable as nylon, it is highly resilient and easy to clean. Acrylic resists wear and soiling well. POLYESTER: Often found in shag carpets, polyester is strong, durable, easy to clean, dyes well and resists wear, dirt and stains well, POLYPROPYLENE: its extra strength and ability to withstand harsh treatment make it ideal for Continued on Page 20 I;OBIN HO I D ALL PURPOSE FLOUR 20 LB.

Dear Mrs. Taylor: I have received the copy of Auburn's history that the Women's Institute has under- taken as a responsibility to put together and update, Looking over your publication has provided me with much pleasure and a great deal of information about the many fine 'people that made and, now, make up that community. I sincerely trust•that the Women's institute will continue to maintain the story of Auburn, although it is a demanding undertaking, for benefit of the younger people wlio have not reached that age yet, where they have learned to appreciate the history of their community. Auburn always will be a place of sentimental interest to me. Please convey my sincere appreciation to the Auburn Women's Institute, Sincerely, Peter Patterson.

When she saw me fixing the dressing for the chicken she said, "I don't care for your dressing OR your gravy. 1 think 1,11 make my own," That night she and my husband ate her dressing and gravy. The children and 1 ate mine. Naturally some discussion followed as to whose was better. The children tasted her dressing and decided mine was better. My husband said his mother's dressing was "drier," and that he preferred it. then said hers was too greasy and hard to digest. The entire table conversation revolved a- round the dressing and the gravy. The kids said her gravy was too thick. She said mine was too thin. On and on it went. Such drivel you never heard in your life. The more talk, the madder I got. What f want to know is this: Docs a woman have the right to tell her mother-in-law to stay out of her kitchen while she is cooking? I had a splitting headache when 1 went to bed and I don't need a psychiatrist to tell me why. Please answer in the paper, --I Like My Own Cooking DEAR LIKE YOUR OWN: If you don't watt your mother-in-law (or anyone else) in your kitchen when you're cooking, say so. But it is easy to avoid hurt feelings by being tactful. Insist that the party be a guest in your home and flatly, refuse to permit her to "work," DEAR ANN LANDERS: I'd like to share my horrible experience with your millions of young readers. Maybe it will teach them,' Mother-in-law, and wife can't share same kitchen something i was too dumb to learn. Yes, l read the warnings in your column but I always thought "it will never happen to me," Well, it did. I was caught and put in jail for ripping off a $4.47 basketball net. i had to pay $100 bail and sit in a crummy tank for six hours with a bunch of bums and hungover drunks before they let me out. I was handcuffed and finger- printed like a common criminal, which is what that damned basketball net made out of me, Now I have a police record. I can truthfully say I'm glad I got caught before I robbed a bank. Please, Ann, print this letter and maybe somebody out there will sec how dumb it is to 'take a chance on ruining his t'eptitation for life, --Too Late Smart DEAR T.L.S.: Here's your letter. I can't add one thing to it. You've said it all and I thank you. DEAR ANN LANDERS: 1 have this close friend who turns every conversation to the birth of her second child. it has become an obsession with her to recount the details of her agony at every social gathering. Since this is a rather small town, everyone has heard the story at least 40 times. We were all patient at first, thinking she'd drop the subject, but the baby is now two years old and she still insists on describing how the water broke in the dime store and the manager phoned her husband to come and get her. I love this gal but she is beginning to sound like a broken record. Is there a way to get her to stop telling this same yarn over and over? --Ready To Scream DEAR READY: Screaming won't help. You'll have to come right out and explain to your friend that she has become a crashing bort and for her own sake, she simply must stop rehashing that story. You'll be doing her a big favor. ***** It's not always easy to recognize love, especially the first time around. Acquaint yourself with the guidelines.

BY KEITH ROULSTON Canadians have been reacting strongly lately to some claims made by immigrants in Toronto that this country is racist. For Canadians who have always prided themselves in their tolerance, the charge is a bitter pill to swallow, and most people have reacted angrily, saying that the immigrant leaders are taking the actions of a few idiots as'the feelings of the whole population. Probably they are right. Probably the leaders of the Asian, Pakistani and Indian communities are over reacting. But probably We need to take close look at our attitudes about race and colour we should look a little closer at ourselves before we get too hot under the collar. Arc we as simon pure as we think? Do we encourage discrimination or rac- ism by not discouraging it more? I recall sitting at a dinner in Clinton a few years back with a group of people gathered for a meeting from all over Ontario, A man from Kitchener, a big bull of a man, was telling a story about a "big buck nigger", He thought it was a hilarious story but few of us around him laughed much. In fact for me it tended to ruin the dinner. ,But none of us, myself included, made a move to tell the man just how disgusting we thought he was, i've 'often regreted this since, but .it's something.we,so often do. We hada house guest ''d(i our place once, a sweet looking little. O.P.P. investigate several accidents During the week May 12 to May 18, the following investiga- tions were carried out by officers at Wingham Detachment of the O.P.P. : Twelve investigations with twelve persons charged under the Liquor Control Act; Twenty-three charges laid and forty-six warnings issued under the Highway Traffic Act; Twenty- seven other investigations. On Tuesday, May 13, William R. Walsh of Kincardine was involved in a single car accident on Highway 86 at the Zetland Bridge when a pedestrian, Frederick J, Krohn of RR 3, Wingham ran into the left side of his vehicle, and was injured as a result of the accident. Damages to the Walsh vehicle were estimated at $100. On Thursday, May 15, a vehicle owned by Bryan F. Purdon of Brussels was parked on Turn - berry Street, Brussels with the engine running, when it was put in gear -by Kenneth B. Purdon, age 2. The vehicle crossed the sidewalk and struck a building, causing $400 damages. There were no injuries. Thomas D. Dayman of Hanover was involved in a single car accident on Sideroad 25-26, south of Concession 12, Turnberry Township when his vehicle entered the west ditch and rolled over. No one was injured, and damages to the Dayman vehicle were estimated at $2500. On Friday, May 16, Marie L. Robinson of RR 2, Gorrie and Ronald C. Riley of Wroxeter were involved in a collision on John Street at Nelson Street, Gorrie. There were no injuries. Damages were estimated at $700, Johann Neumayer of Kitchener and Nelson Langdon of Palmer- ston were involved in a collision on Highway 86, east of the Jct. Road to Bluevale, Morris Twp. Injured as a result of the collision • were Johann Neumayer, Frank Neumayer and Tony Neumayer, all of Kitchener. Damages to the Neumayer vehicle were estimated at $750. On Saturday, May 17, Nelson Kerr of RR 2, Woodbridge was involved in a single car accident on Highway 87, east of the junction of Highway 86. There were no injuries. Damages were estimated at $210. On Sunday, May 18, Ian R, Oakley of Wroxeter and Robert J. MacTavish of RR 1, Bluevale were involved in a collision on County Road 29 at Queen St., Wroxeter. Injured as a result of the accident was Ian R. Oakley, Damages to both vehicles were estimated at $1,000.00 "'The Greatest sin is not murder, dope, rape, violence, robbery, pollution or lust it is • apathy!" R woman who didn't look like she could hurt a flea. She was talking about how she was afraid to travel through the U.S, because tf•all the "coloured people". Late she lamented on the number of coloured people that have come to Toronto lately and how tley seemed to be taking over the city. What do you say at a situation like that? I'm afraid 1 was at a loss for words, We've been taughti all our lives to. be nice to guests in our homes. Do we make a scene arguing a point we're unlikely to win anyway? Do we ask the guest to leave? Well, I didn't. Like most of us f declined to make a scene and in doing so probably helped promote racism in Canada, Most of us, i think are guilty of this same kind of consent ,by inaction. What do we do ‘„then we hear someone talking' about "those damned Frenchics" in Quebec or when a friend from Toronto starts telling "Packie jokes" which hake brutal fun of Pakistans? Most of us, I think just keep quiet. And by doing so think we are helping Canada appear to be more racist than it really is. If we don't react violently to this kind of racial slur, we are giving the people talking the feeling that they have company in their feelings, or are perhaps expressing feelings that the rest of us are afraid to say. This kind of silence promotes groups like the "Western Guard" in Toronto in its evil ways, It makes idiots like the man who shot a black boy in Toronto, (apparently just because of the colour of his skin) the feeling that they are doing something for the "silent majority" of their nation, We can sit here smuggly in Blyth and Huron county and point the finger at Toronto for its racial problems just as all Canadians used to look a little smuggly at the problems in the U.S. and Britain and think we were a little superior. We don't have many racial problems around here because we virtually don't have any other race but the white European race, I have little doubt, however, that racism would raise its ugly head in Blyth if we suddenly had a few dozen black, Pakistani or Malaysian families move in. I'd like to believe our town is above all that, but i know better than to expect it. And until everyone of us docs everything he can to snuff out this kind of thing, we'll continue to have the same problems where ever the races are mixed, But racism is not a one-way street either. We have seen in recent years the rise of more and more racism on the part of blacks and other races, In Uganda, the government purged all whites from the land. In the U.S. a new pride in being black has been transformed at times into anti - white reaction. And to a certain extent the immigrant groups of Toronto are guilty of racism because o1'' their "chip on the shoulder" attitude that seems to seek out slights from the white community. Settling in a new land is always tough without seeing a racist under every bed. They are perhaps guilty of being too sensitive, We are guilty of not being sensitive enough. Parks and Campsites are among our greatest natural attractions. This is what Ontario is doing ,_expand and protect them. The Ontario Government has a firm polic of establishing and maintaining provincial parks and campsites. This year, for example, four new provin- cial parks and over 600 new campsites are being developed for the enjoyment and recreation of Ontario residents—bringing the total number of operating parks to 120 and campsites to 21,000. The new parks are: Silent Lake Provincial Park, 1860 acres sit- uated 13 miles north of Apsley on High- way 28. 85 campsites are available, but no motor boats will be allowed. Regular fees apply. Ferris Provincial Park, situated one mile. south of Campbellford on County Road 31, has been expanded by adding 87 camp- sites, comfort stations, and boat launch ramp for access to the Trent River System. Regular fees apply. Bronte Creek Provincial Park, at the Queen Elizabeth Way and Highway 25, midway be- tween Toronto and Hamilton, will be open without charge this year for day -use and picnicking. Among its special features are a children's farm and nature hikes. Ouimet Canyon Provincial Park, near Dorion on Highway 27 about 35 miles east of Thunder Bay, provides walking trails along the canyon's edge to give visitors a spectacular view of the "Grand Canyon of OMan ; " No admission charge. Additio ' al campsites are under construc- tion at se eral existing provincial parks— Algonquin, Bon Echo, Killbear, Fairbank, Remi Lake a d Ivanhoe.
