B.C. man explains operation of Federation Charles Bernhardt, the man who shepparded the British Columbia farm income protection plan through government oppos- ition to reality says the B.C. plan has the support of both the farmers and the government. Mr. Bernhardt, past president of the British Columbia Federa- tion of Agriculture was speaking in Wingham on June 17 at one of two meetings scheduled in Ontario by the Ontario Federation of Agriculture to let farmers hear more of the B.C. plan. He said he was concerned that the farmers of Ontario should be moving in the same direction as the farmers of British Columbia in farm income protection. He hit out at the statement by Ontario Agriculture Minister William Stewart that the British Columbia plan wasn't working for the farmers and was going to bankrupt the province. Mr. Bernhardt said the Minister of Agriculture in British Columbia fully supports the program. The B.C. government is not going broke, he said, and if it were, it wouldn't be because of the farm income plan which makes up only a small portion of the government budget. He recalled for the 200 or so persons present from Huron and neighbouring counties, how the B.C. plan came into being. The Federation, he said, had worked on the concept for three yeah and the final plan was a lot different than what they started out with. The concept of working on the basis of cost of production was generally considered to be too rash when they started out, he said. People questioned just how they would be able to establish a cost of production. The solution to this major hurdle, he said, was to set up a "model farm" for each commod- ity. From that point it was determined just what the costs would be for this model. After they had done this, he said, the B.C. Federation was confident that at last it was confident it had some figures people would listen to: that the Federation could defend against government ques- tions. The government accepted the concept, he said. The next challenge was to secure legisla- tion that would deliver the cost of production to the farmer. The "lever" that allowed British Columbia farmers to get what they wanted was provided in a change of government. The New Democratic Party had promised strong legislation to keep farm land from going out of production during the election campaign and when elected planned to go ahead with the legislation (even though, Mr. Bernhardt said, the N.D.P. was as surprised as anyone that they got elected). The Federation argued that the land protection policy was not justifyable unless the government did something to ensure that farming was a viable way of making a living. The government agreed farmers must be given a better deal but when the legislation was introduced there was "not one sentence" - that mentioned the need to make farming' more viable. The Federation then launched a demonstration against the land - control legislation which, Mr. Bernhardt said, had a lot to do with the income legislation finally being introduced. The demon- stration, he said, focussed atten- tion on the need to give farmers a better deal. It put pressure on the government and made them promise publically to do some- thing to help the farmers. A side effect, he said, was that it greatly increased the esteem the farmers had in the Federa- tion. As an organization, he said, the Federation felt it had to stand up for the working farmer even though some farmers wanted to keep the right to sell their land for development purposes at a big buck, When the government finally did accept the plan, Mr. Bernhardt said, they accepted the right of the Federation to negotiate the terms of the plan and help administer it, an,= accepted nearly the whole plan as . tepared by the Federation. He said the right of the•farmers to take part in the running of the farm income plan is very important. He said he didn't think the farmers of B.C. would be very interested in the plan if it was controlled by a bunch of bureaucrats. He also said that there has been no large•bureaucracy set up to administer the plan; that only a small extra staff has been hired by the government. The B.C. plan pays 75 per cent of the short -fall between the cost of production and the market price. In other words, if the cost of production of a crop is $1.00 per bushel and the market price is only 80 cents, the plan will pay 75 per cent of the difference, or an extra 15 cents. This still provides farm income plan an incentive, he said, for farmers to market their crops will since the better the marketing, the closer the farmer is to his actual cost of production. And if he makes more than the cost of production, of course, he keeps the extra, aside from the cost of the insurance. In B.C. the insurance . cost is shared between the farmer, who pays one third and the govern- ment which pays the rest. There had been hope to get the Federal government to kick in one third but it has refused to get involved. The program 'has been very popular, Mr. Bernhardt says and more than 90 per cent of commercial food producers have now been enrolled. But he said the plan challenges the farmers to take •up the responsibilities,'that go along with the new security. It's all very well to have programs that prive security he said but these programs cannot be successful unless farmers play a role in both the planning and administration of the programs. He also said that farmers have a responsibility to control surplus- ses. He said he felt the production limits that a farmer could insure for in B.C. were realistic{ Under the plan a farmer could still choose to produce older the limits, he said, but the over -production would not be covered by the income plan. The producer in such cases is operating at his own. risk, not the risk of the government treasury, he said. He stressed the importance of the fact that farmers had to be involved in the actual operation of the program. "I don't think it's possible for the government to work in isolation," he said. He said there also needs tdbe a central negotiating organization for the farmers. That's why the Federation got involved in negot- iating in B.C. he said so that the government couldn't play one organization off against another. This is why in B.C. anyone who wants to participate in the plan has to be a member of the Federation. (The Ontario Federa- tion has asked for the same set-up in its proposed plan to the Ontario government.) Questions from the floor seemed to concern mostly att- empts to try to apply B.C. farming standard with Ontario's for such a plan. Mr. Bernhardt warned repeatedly that since conditions were different in the two prpvinces, it would be up to the Ontario farmers to work out their own cost structures, etc. If the government agreed to permit such a plan to 'be set up. A vote taken at the request of Ontario Federation President Gordon Hill of Varna showed a heavy majority of people in favour of the principal of such a plan for Ontario. About a half dozen were opposed, One farmer however was vocal in his opposition saying that the B.C. plan subsidized its farmers to compete against Ontario farmers. Now, he said, Ontario taxpayers are' being asked to subsidize Ontario farm- ers too. PG. 2. TIE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 25, 1975.

Former Reeve, active citizen dies LATE GEORGE BAILIE George Henry Bailie a former Reeve of Blyth passed away suddenly after suffering an acute heart failure in Wingham and District Hospital on June 12, 1975, He was in his 72nd year.

He was on the Blyth Fire Department for 35 years, an active member of the Blyth Threshermen's Reunion, and an active member of Blyth Orange Lodge 963 and Black Knight Preceptory 1226. He was county master of the Lodges for two years. He worked for the Doherty Brothers for many years as a trucker.

A people betrayed The recent inquiries into the workings of the Central Intelligence Agency in the United States coming as they do after the revelations of Watergate show the American people, indeed the people of the Western world, as a people betrayed. Particularly englightening, and depressing, was the hour long television show on E. Howard Hunt, former C.I.A. agent, writer and convicted Watergate conspirator. Hunt took the part in planning the assassination of a Latin-american president but we had the chance to sec Adlai Stevenson, the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. calling the Russian alligation that the U.S. had been involved in a vicious lie. And we all believed him, at the time. We felt sure that the U.S., basing it's policies on the general honesty of the people of the country, would not get involved in such a petty plot. It was much the same situation when the U.S. backed the invasion at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba, all the time denying it was taking any part. There are rumors of other assassination attempts of foreign leaders, even the feeling by some that the C.I.A. might have been involved in the assassination of John Kennedy. Fantastic? But who knows what to believe any more? The people we gave our faith too betrayed that faith. We believed that the leaders of the U.S. were right and the Russians were wrong in nearly every case. Now we see that the Russians were justified in many of the complaints they have made about U.S. intervention in other nations. How many other dark secrets are yet to be revealed, one wonders. And as a Canadian, how many dark secrets of our own do we have. We need to find out and work hard to make sure such betrayals never happen again. Thanks Clinton From the citizens of Blyth to the citizens of Clinton, thanks. We were probably grumbling a Little last week when we found out we were in for a six mill tax increase. But you made us feel a little better when you socked with a 37 -mill increase. We were a little worried when we heard the mill rate was an all-time high of 112 mills. You made us feel fortunate when we heard your mill rate was 172 mills. Mother always used to say no matter how badly off you thought you were, you could always find someone in a worse position. Thanks Clinton, you confirmed it. Of course where you go to find someone worse off we wouldn't have the slightest idea. Socialism has problems Harold Wilson of Britain has some gigantic problems these days. You might feel sorry for him if it wasn't that he was responsible for causing many of these problems. As head of the Labour Party Mr. Wilson has helped to nationalize many industries. Now, the workers of those industries are leading the demands for higher wages and pushing a nation already hit by the highest inflation in the Western World toward even worse inflation. Nationalization is often thought of as a miracle cure. How many times have we heard calls for this or that industry to be nationalized in our country. When an industry is being lead by unscrupulous or just plain incompetent leaders we often think that government take-over is the answer. When an industry is thought to be crucial to the national good and is either not making money or is making too much, we hear the call for nationalization. But now we are seeing the other side of things. Now not only do we have to worry about the increasing bureaucracy involved but we also have to worry about militant unions in the public sector. In our own country one quick look at wage settlements will show that the highest demands, and the highest settlements have come in areas in the public sector of the economy, the teachers, the postal workers etc. They have in many cases run nearly double the percentage settled for by private industry employees. The reason is obvious: private industry can always say no, we can't afford any more or we'll go broke. Governments don't have the option. If they are asked for more they are also told that all they have to do is raise taxes to get the extra money. Wilson is facing the sad fact that there seems to be no way to control the situation, What happens, for instance, when militant unions refuse to obey the orders of both parliament and the courts (as we've seen happen here). Our free and open western society depends on individual responsibility and respect for the law. If people refuse this what option is left, A dictatorship like Russia always has the army with its guns to bring in. What Western leader, however, is willing to such a show -down? Letter to the editor THE EDITOR: Ever heard of Watson Hall? Mammoth House? A hotel called "The Case Is Altered?" All of these places belong to the history of Blyth, but the secret of their origin and location is as yet a ' mystery to the researchers of "Blyth '77". Can anyone help us? We are also on the look -out for old pictures and newspapers, especially those published in the 30's by "Shorty" Robinson. The project is making good progress and many people have helped us already.

Mather on their departure from Blyth at the end of this month. Fred Howson acted as master of ceremonies and commenced the evening by welcoming everyone and offering prayer. A short musical program was enjoyed. Mr. and Mrs. Mather were called to the front and Ray Madill read an address of appreciation for their work and interest in the church during their stay in Blyth. Gifts of a beautiful lamp and a purse were presented to the couple. Rev. W. 0. Mather, who has been minister of Blyth United Church for the past six years, will deliver his farewell message to the congregation this Sunday morning at the regular church service. The Mathers will move to London where he will enter semi -retirement as assistant at Empress Church. Pony races were the order of entertainment provided in Blyth this past Sunday - the second in a series to be held by the Pony Racing Club this summer - and a very good crowd was on hand for the action, A total of 16 ponies took part in the race meet, an increase of four from starting day. Early grain crops are beginning to head out and prospects look. like an excellent crop. A slight frost on Friday night has caused some leaf damage to beans and cucumbers but recovery should be rapid. The Blyth Bantams won and lost in two games played during the past week. On Thursday night they dropped a 10-9 decision to Lucknow, Don Stewart pitched and Henry Lubbers caught.

From the Minister's study Power in Praise BY REV. CECIL WITTiCH This past week I came across a book which has enlarged my understanding of the Christian life, The book is called, "Power In Praise". It is written v Merlin Carothers who has been a Chaplain in the United States' Arnied Services. Carothers says kit there isn't anything that can happen to the Christian for which he cannot give thanks and which God cannot use for that per,on's good and the glory of God. As Christians we live in surrender to God as our Lord. We commit our lives to him in obedience and trust. We ask for His will to be done in everything. In that way we can accept ourselves and what happens to us being permitted by God and as that through which God can work to further his plans. The apostle Paul spoke of the .same insight, "In everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28) Carothers goes on to tell of how the power of God becomes available to us as we learn to praise and thank him in any all the circumstances of life, He tells of an experience in his own life in which he was feeling resentful and sorry for himself that he was not able to play a musical instrument or sing very well. One day he was listening to an orchestra and the Spirit of God said to him, "Are you thankful that you can't play an instrument or sing?" Carothers realized that he wasn't. The Spirit again spoke to him saying, "Are you willing to be thankful?" Carothers said that he was, At that moment a new peace flowed into his life and he was happy with himself, When we become bitter about ourselves and things that happen to us, we shut ourselves off from God. When we praise him for the life he has given us and for all that happens to us, we are opening our life to his in -coming power and peace. Helen Keller, born blind and deaf, says "i thank God for my handicaps, for through them i have found myself, my work and my God," Paul wrote, "Always and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father," (Ephesians 5:20) shower at Port Albert, convened 4th ANNIVERSARY SUNDAY, JUNE 29 8:00 P.M.

PG. 11. New Morality has this mother bugged DEAR ANN LANDERS: I wonder if you realize how lucky you are that your daughter was raised and married before the "New Moral- ity" hit. Maybe it was more than luck, but do be grateful. It has put so many parents through a living hell -- including us. Who do these kids think they are? For years my husband and I were inconsolable because we thought we could not have children. And then the miracle! We were blessed with a baby girl. That was 20 years ago. She was a joy to us -• no problems beyond the minor hassles •- until last week when D announced that she and her boyfriend were going to live together, Guide to home -canning If you've ever wondered why commercial jars shouldn't be used for home canning or why you should tighten some canning jars and not others after processing, the answers to these and other concerns can be found in publication 468, "Home Canning Ontario Fruits and Vegetables", It is available, free of charge, from the Information Branch, Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, Ontario M7A 1 AS. If you've never canned at home before, give it some serious thought before deciding to go ahead. Home canning of fruits and vegetables is not for everyone. It requires a lot of time and patience, and some expen- sive equipment. When canning vegetables, , for example, you must .use a pressure canner, which costs over $100. Vegetables are low in acid and they must by processed in a pressure canner to eliminate the possibility of botulism food poisoning, which could be fatal. Fruits are high in acid, therefore they can be processed in a hot water bath processor for a definite time period. All process- ing times are listed in the new booklet. Also, there's a new method recommended for cann- ing tomatoes, as the acidity of tomatoes varies considerably. If you're going to spend the time and money to can at home, be sure your home canned foods are not only of good quality, but safe, when the time comes for your family to eat them. Before starting your home canning, write and ask for a copy of the step -by step guide, "Home Canning Ontario Fruits and Vegetables". Care of strawberries When preparing strawberries it is most important to wash before hulling, say food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food. When you hull a strawberry, the small cavity formed provides a tunnel allowing water to be soaked up in the tissues and causing the berry to swell. When you eat the strawberry, it will taste watery. Therefore, just an hour before using them, rinse the strawberr- ies in cold water, then hull, place in a bowl and leave at room temperature for that while before eating. That way, you'll , get the full flavor of the season. Strawberries should not be rinsed or hulled if they are to be stored for a day or so in the refrigerator, as any wetness or moisture on the berry will cause spoilage through mold or soften- ing. This is a good reason to spread the berries out for storing, rather than leave them in their square'container, which restricts their breathing and may cause bruising. No use arguing. They already have rented an apartment and arc ready to move in. Her father and I are still in a state of shock. He wakes up in the middle of the night and walks around the house. D says she is on the pill, thay they will share expenses and "see how things work out." Where is their sense of decency? Where is their respect and consideration for their parents who must face friends and family? Our daughter has really fixed up our last years •- but good. Nothing can ever be the same again, We are humiliat- ed and ashamed, Please tell us how other parents in the same boat deal with such a situation, •• Sick in Omaha DEAR O.:lf it's any comfort to you, dear, that boat is awfully crowded, I agree with you that it , IS indecent and shows a gross 1 lack of consideration for parents such as you. But would you believe SOME parents don't object? They are so afraid of losing their children that they swallow their pride, smile a lot and keep their mouths shut. My position on couples living together is that it's a bummer -- especially for the girl. She has very little to gain and plenty to lose. I hope you and your husband will keep the door open to D and her roommate and be as friendly as you can, If this is the lifestyle they've chosen -- so be it, Don't let it ruin YOUR lives and your marriage, You were'sweethearts before your "baby girl" came along and that's the way you should complete your lives. DEAR ANN LANDERS: I am a 16 -year-old female with a not -so - serious problem, but it docs annoy the living daylights out of me, It's a friend of mine a girl who is also 16, very nice and fun to be with. But she has this terrible habit of punching me when she gets excited. Gert is bigger than I am and I'm sure she doesn't know her own strength. I have black-and-blue marks on my arms from her elbows and fists. Last week I'm sure she cracked my rib BLYTH SUMMER &OW at a baseball game. 1 am not the only one she does this to, Ann. At the moment, two others are also black and blue. Is there a solution? •• Punched Out In Danbury DEAR P.O. IN D,: Yes, Punch her back and tell her she's going to get more of the same until she kicks the habit. And hang in there until she quits.

In teaching, you get a whole set of new stupid faces every year. They come in every September, an entire new gallery of mugs, and sit there looking at you, They look pretty dumb, like any other representative group of people, and you have a moment of despair. It doesn't help much when some of the faces are closed and sullen, and others are sneaky or insolent or just plain devised for hellery, "Oh, boy! This is no bumper crop, More bumptious than bumper, Looks like a rough year ahead." But some strange alchemy goes to work during the year, and by June, if you're lucky, those faces are no longer strangers, but a host of new friends and acquaint- ances. You have discovered all kinds of things, in the give and take of the classroom, about these bodies, and now you know them as aspects of the human spirit, however blurred or bent, in some cases. That girl with the big bust and Huronview h A special Church service was held in the Auditorium on Sunday morning in recognition of the beginning of 1 Senior Citizens Week. Rev. McWhinnie, Chapl- ain of the Home, was in charge of the service wall two selections by the Ontario Street Male Quartette which includes Don Symons, John Lavis, Stanley Johns and George Forty-four of the Goderich seniors Turner accompanied by Mrs. had supper. Florence Symons. The residents are looking The combined choirs of the forward to the visit on Saturday of Exeter ' and Clinton Christian the Seaforth Happy Citizen, Reformed Churches, led by Mr. De Haan provided the music for the Sunday evening musical concert. The choirs sang several of the residents' favourite relig- ious numbers as well as prepared selections with Mrs. Valkenburg expressing the appreciation of the residents. Forty-four members of the Blyth Senior Citizens' Club visited the Home on Monday and after dinner joined in the old tyme music and sing song program with Administrator Mr. Archi- bald, welcoming the guests and officially opening the week. The Goderich Township Women's Institute volunteers and Mrs, Hulley assisted with activities and Mrs. Molly Cox, Mrs. Drivers and Norman Speir provided the music. Cookies and lemonade were provided by the kitchen staff and served by the volunteers. The Bayfield and Exeter Senior Citizens Club provided the Tuesday evening Family Night program, The 74 Club members visited their friends during the afternoon and had supper in the dining room. The program included instrumentals, vocal duets, selections by an Exeter men's chorus, readings and a sing -a -long. Fifty-two members of the Friendship Club of Brussels, travelling by bus and car, were our guests on Wednesday after- noon. After dinner the visitors gathered in the auditorium for games with twenty-five tables playing euchre, five hundred and crokinole, Mrs. Evans of Brussels received the prize fdithe eldest lady playing games and Jim McDonald won the men's prize. The Clinton Club visited the Hone on Thursday afternoon for dinner and joined the Goderich Club to provide the program in The pleasures bum and the pouty mouth, whom you registered as a Hot•Lips Houlihan type back in September, has turned out to be a sweet child who blushes if you ask her what (bine it is. Conversely, that angelic, strai- ght -looking girl with the big honest eyes and the good manners, whom you spotted as a potential prize student last fall, was hauled into court last winter for being drunk and disorderly, a nice way of saying she beat up two cops. That little ratty guy with the dirty hair and the sides failing out of his sneakers, who looked like a refugee from a Dickensian orpha- nage, has proved himself a track star and a whiz in grammar. Mouthy Mary, whose vocabul- ary would scorch the skull of a sailor, writes tender, lyric poetry. Jeff, whom you put down as a hockey bum in January, who missed three days a week from exhaustion, has emerged, since the ice melted, as one of the most sensitive writers you've ever taught. Alan, the belligerent guy you tangled with on the first day of school, and the second, and the fourth, and the eighth, a real hood, has come out of his surly cocoon as a football player, a pretty fair artist, and the best' mower of lawns you have hired in years. You are buddies. Cynthia, one of the few familiar faces last September, because you had taught her the year before, hasn't changed at all. She's just as sweet and lovable and full of fun as always, and you think of her almost as a daughter,, And Joe, the other familiar face as busy week the auditorium with Rev. Youmat- off leading a sing -a -long accomp- anied by Mrs. Parker. The program included vocal solos, step dances, readings, instrum- entals and selections by a mixed chorus from the Goderich Club. Forty-five members of the Clinton Club had dinner at the Home and THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 25, 1975. PG. 13. that come with teaching last September, because you had also taught him the year before, hasn't changed a bit either. He's just as slippery, conniving, lazy and genial as always, and while you might despair of him, you've grown to accept him, as you would a member of your family with the same faults, It's the same every year. You start out with caterpillars, and if Westfield news BY MRS. CHARLES SMITH Mr. and Mrs. Max Dart and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Martin of Ashley, Ohio visited for several clays last week with Mr. and Mrs, Ivan Wightman. Mr. and Mrs. Gerald McDowell and family visited on Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Fred Armstrong and family of Auburn.

Kim placed highest in junior division with a mark of 82. Kim received the bronze medal and a perfect attendance award. Congratula- tions Kim. you are patient and tolerant and allow people to find their way out of their cocoons, you wind up with butterflies, some gray and dull, others brillant and many -hued, but all of them Muttering with life. And you keep track of your butterflies, as best you can, Here's a doctor who didn't know a dangling participle when you were trying to teach him Shakespeare, 19 years ago. And there's a university professor, one of the swift, eager minds you touched on her way through the system. John has become an artist, and is going to marry Trish, and you think it's a great match and hope the best for them, because you knew them away back then, when they were kids. And another John and a Bill are journalists, and Betty is a fine nurse, and Florence is going to be a lawyer, and Mike takes off your storm windows and Betty works in the travel agency and gives you the best of service and Pete is going to take you fishing to a special trout stream as soon as school is out and Rosemary has had four babies, every one a beauty. It's like polling teeth to make them admit it, but most teachers become pretty fond of most of their students over the course of a year, A few of them, of course, only a mother could love. I can think of no fate more horrible than being a teacher who doesn't like kids,,,aand no better life than for oneho does.

Queen's Park smacks smut BY MURRAY GAUNT, M.P.P. HURON - BRUCE A change in the Theatres Act introduced by the Minister of Consumer and Commercial Rela- tions, Sidney Handleman this week will permit sex films shown on video tape or 8 millimetre film to come under the eye of Ontario censors. 4H exchange program on Twenty-three 4-H club members from Huron County will be leaving on Friday, June 27th for Blackford and Jay Counties in Indiana on the first part of a 4-H exchange programme that will last until July 1 4-H club members from Indiana will be returning their visit in Huron County from „July 17 to July 22. Huron County 4-H club mem- bers participating on the ex- change are: Fran Logtenberg, RR 1, Dungannon; Kathy Pentland, RR 6, Goderich; Diana Brand, RR 3, Clinton; Janet Postma, RR 1, Varna; Carol Dougall, RR 3, Exeter; Sherry Boak, RR 1, Dungannon; Susan Bridge, RR 2, Fordwich; Mary Kernick, God- erich; Linda Dougherty, RR 6, Goderich; Annette Boneschansker, RR 1, _Ethel; Nancy Alton, RR 2, Lucknow; Marty Becker, Dash- wood; Nelson Underwood, RR 1, Wingham; Donald Sanderson, RR 1, Gorrie; Wayne Shapton, RR 1, Exeter; Paul Drennan, RR 1, Dungannon; Paul Gibbings, RR 1, Clinton; Barry Elliott, RR 1, Lucknow; Ralph Morrison, RR 1, Lucknow; Jerry Logtenberg, RR 1, Dungannon; Dave Kinsman, RR 2, Staffa; John Franken, RR 2, Auburn; Laurie Stackhouse, RR 1, Londesboro, The group will be chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs. Bob McNeil, RR 6, Goderich and Jim Fairies, RR 1, Gorrie. The objectives of the 4-H exchange programme in Huron County are to give club members. an opportunity to meet 4-H er's their own age from another country and to exchange ideas on different ways of life and different agricultural practices./ The move closes the loophole in the Act that allows theatres, mostly in Toronto to show uncensored films. The film censors will also have control over the 25 cent "peep show" machines. Mr. Handleman considered another amendment he introduc- ed to be important as well. It allows the Province to require film distributors to make Canad- ian films available and to set a quota "on a monthly or yearly basis". The Canadian quota provision replaces a similar clause that allowed Ontario to demand a certain proportion of British films. That provision was never used according to Mr. Handle - man, and it will be some time before the Government is ready to require film exhibitors to show Canadian films. Bill 100, An Act respecting the negotiation of Collective Agree- ments between School Boards and Teachers, commonly referred to as the Teachers' Bill, received second reading this week. The Bill permits teachers to strike, but provides for a number of innovative and new concepts in the collective bargaining process. Generally, the bill's provisions dealing with the fact finding procedures, final offer selection, the Education Relations Commis- sion, the deadline for starting negotiations, the good faith bargaining and secret ballot prior to strikes have met with favour- able reaction. There has been widespread opposition to Section 64 of the Bill which excludes principals and vice principals from the collective bargaining unit, hence they would not be allowed to strike, on the basis that this would drive a wedge between principals and their teachers and create an impossible situation for principals in the event of a strike. The other contentious issue has to do with voluntary or extra curricula activities. The Bill ,would place the activities as -- contractual or negotiable items, but the teachers want them to remain as a voluntary part of their work. BY KEITH ROULSTON This is the time of year when we all wish we were school kids again. What can beat the feeling of a boy or girl on the last day of school. That two months ahead looks like an eternity. It's best of course for the public school kids, Somehow it's regarded as some- thing of a sin if a high school students sits around all summer without a job, even though the number of summer jobs just haven't been able to keep up with the demand. So even those students that can't find jobs are apt to feel a little guilty all summer, to feel a little like a welfare bum. It used to be that students went to work on the family farm or the family business in the summer and still were apt to have a few spare hours to enjoy. Now, most people don't have a family business to work in so they have to find a job elsewhere; and the prestige of Senior Choir holds picnic The senior choir of the Blyth United Church held theif annual picnic at Rev. and Mrs. Cecil Wittich's cottage on June 22 with about forty in attendance. The highlight of the afternoon was a presentation honouring Charlene Campbell of the Senior Choir and Grant Campbell of the Intermed- iate choir. These valued members who are moving with their family to Truro, N. S., were presented with gifts by Christine McNall and Jeff Wittich in appreciation of their contribution to the choirs. Mr. Cliff Snell voiced the appreciation of all to Mr. and Mrs. Wittich for their hospitality.

But for the public school kids, ah that's where the fun is. There may be a little lawn cutting to do or some enforced berry picking and gardening, but most of the hours ahead are spent in sheer fun. The most fun 1 think is for those lucky enough to live on a farm, or at least in the country. Summer time is the time for long walks in the fields; following that little stream in the meadow to see where it goes; swimming in the river; listen to the frogs and crickets on a warns summer night; watching a thunder storm build in the western sky and a hundred other things that we adults don't take the time to enjoy. There's also the chance to be close to the work of the farm: to discover that mysterious thing called "making a living;" watch- ing the fascinating farm equip- rnent; smelling the scent of the hay; perhaps getting to drive the tractor for the first time; trying to lug a heavy b'alc across the mow just like dad does; even if it takes a little longer. I'm afraid I'ni not much of an expert on what little girls do during the summer since 1 wasn't one, didn't have any sisters near my age and didn't even have any girls in the neighbourhood. Somehow, though 1 imagine they do a lot of the same things boys do. Most of 'all they just let their imagination go wild. They learn to love life and the world. It's sad that we forget that when we get older. It's too bad we just couldn't take . more time to smell the flowers and listen to the birds. But we're so busy worrying about earning enough money for an exotic vacation that we don't see the great vacation that's right here under our noses; so busy trying to earn money for a colour television for entertainment that we don't realize that the greatest entertainment of all is free, ummer S�e Fabrics 3DAYS • LY•JUNE 26 45" Poly Crepe Gingham - Perma Broadcloth Remn.nts- 20% In Stor Specials u PLUS f $2.39 yd. $1.49 yd. $1.25 yd, ft to 50% off 10-20 • OFF ALL BRICS HER B.
