tie BLYTH, ONTARIO PRiCE: 20 CENTS VOLUME 85 • NO. 31 P.U.C. raises hydro rate 24.1% The latest electrical utility rates released by Blyth Public Utilities Commission may give some Blyth homeowners a bit of a shock. Rates for residential power users will jump 24.1 per cent on bills issued effective September 1. For commercial users the rate increase isn't quite so high but is still 19.8 per cent. It will also cost more to run the street lights: 26.9 jeer cent according to P.U.C. treasurer Larry Walsh. And those who have water heaters on a flat rate will see an increase o1' 38.4 per cent. The rates are the Blyth utility's answer for what would be deficit year if revenues continued at the present rate. Mr. Walsh explained that the new increase takes in a past increase from Ontario Hydro paid by the P.U.C. and the rate Hydro is now asking for to be effective January 1, 1976. 1-lydro hacl asked for a 29 per cent increase for next year but is now trying to cut that figure down. Children to present theatre Two fantasy plays, created by a group of local children, will be presented this Saturday, Aug. 2 at 11 a.m. at the Blyth Memorial Community Hall. Admission is fret. The plays grew out of children's workshops held over the past three weeks at the hall as part of the Blyth Summer Festival. Through 'improvisations the children evolved the first play, The World of the Ancients, which explores the theme of evil magical power. It will be performed by up to 15 children. The second play, The True King, was written by Michael Kowalchuk, of Blyth. It started! as simply a transcribing of the improvk;ational work but ended up as a separat4 script. It has a cast of three. The workshops were led by actor Jim Schaefer. EC) WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 1975. Choir from Switzerland it was as if a little bit of Switzerland had landed in the middle of Huron county last Friday when two busloads of Swiss holidayers dropped in at the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Meier near Belgrave. The 54 persons on the tour are connected with a choir from the town of Lotzwil near Berne in Switzerland. The choir's 30 members are in Canada to perform in such places as Mitchell, Broadhagen, Elmira and the forum at Ontario Place. The Swiss visitors are staying in homes Insurance for Brucellos Most insurance companies specializing in livestock have dropped coverage for brucellosis, a highly contagious disease which attacks the reproductive organs of cattle. But a check of insurance companies revealed that one in Brampton is offering policies through Lloyd's of London, ' England. "As far as I know, we are the only ones offering brucellosis insurance," Ronald Lori [left] and Wendy Hcsselwood of Blyth have been getting good tans doing good deeds this summer with the help of an Opportunities For Youth grant. Daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Reg Hesselwood, they have been doing jobs for senior citizens during the summer: everything from cutting grass to podding peas to painting a fence as they are here at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Vodden.--staff photo. Five Huron herds .hit by'Brucellosis Brucellosis is on the upswing in Huron County according to Dr. Mark Raithby of Agriculture Canada's Health of Animals guests in the Mitchell arca and touring Ontario from that starting point. Earlier in the week the group had made a trip to Ottawa, a trip which choir president Viktor Remund said would be the equivalent of travelling across Switzerland four times. The group visited Bainton Ltd. mill in Blyth before stopping for a huge buffet lunch at the Meier farm on highway 4 north of Blyth. While in Canada they will be performing in the four Swiss languages. is tough to get Brown of Ronald H. Brown Insurance said. The policy has become popular with. Ontario farmers owning high-priced purebred cattle since brucellosis outbreaks flared in the Ottawa Valley more than a year ago, he said. There are now 554 herds under brucellosisquarantine in the province and some dairy('armers, including one of the largest - Flinkert Farms Ltd. of Drayton - have lost entire herds to the disease. Branch in Seaforth. Dr. Raithby said in a telephone interview with the Rural Voice July 25 that three herds in the county had been "depopu- lated" in the past month and two more are about to be. He said that 15 to 20 herds are under quarantine. Although he said there was a sharp increase in the incidence of the disease, Dr. Raithby expressed confidence that the disease is under control. The percentage of the total county -wide cow population involved is very small, he said. Milk from all dairy herds is tested once a month to try to catch the disease early, he said. in addition sales barns at Listowel and Kitchener now perform the "card" test which can tell right on the spot if a cattle beast is infected. Eventually, he said, all sales barns will the testing equipment but it is very expensive at the present time. The incidence of the disease being spread by beef cattle, he said, is not serious. Most beef cows that abort a calf, he noted, are soon shipped to market and all carcusses are checked at stock yards for the disease. If disease shows up, it can quickly be traced back to the source. Full details of the extent of the disease will be known after the first of the month, • he said, when statistics are released. Editorial Page 4 Church Page 7 `Classified Page 13 t Entertainment Page 15 Festival attendance remarkable Blyth Summer Festival enters its final week of productions for 1975 with glowing optimism thanks to higher than expected attendance during the first three weeks. Writer director Stephen Thorne summed up the feeling of the cast and crew when he said Monday night that the attendance so far has been' tremendous, The average attendance through last Saturday night's performance was nearly 160 persons a night. Mr. Thorne said this was "unheard of for a first year summer theatre". He compared the figure to the Georgian theatre festival in Barrie where with a year-round population of 25000 and a huge summer tourist trade the theatre still averaged only about 70-80 a night. What's more, attendance in Blyth has been growing steadily. Last week's box office receipts were the best yet and Friday night's performance of Mostly in Clover was within a few scattered seats of being sold out in the 410 -seat theatre. Artistic Director James Roy said the increased attendance has brought the .group within range of reaching its budget and another good week this week would mean Tess money would have to be raised from donations to meet the expenses. Mr. Thorne pointed out that most summer theatres lose Targe amounts of money in their .first season of operation. The past week has not been without some disappointments, however. The group was invited to Goderich to put on' its Country Cabaret at the Huron County Jail. Attendance was disappointing to say the least, The lack of money from this venture means a big hole to be filled in meeting the budget. Miller reports Huron crops. in good shape Huron County crops are generally in very good condition according to Mike Miller Associate Agricultural Representa- tive at the Ministry of Agriculture and Food office in Clinton. Corn in particular is in excellent condition and quite a bit ahead of normal. The condition of the bean crop varies widely. Because of wet weather in June there was about a six-week period between the first plantings and the last. Consequently the first crops planted are doing quite well while the latter crops are behind. Harvesting will be over a long period of time, he says. Spring grain has suffered some wind damage although overall it is a better than average crop. With a stretch of dry weather, the wheat crop will be a good one. The wheat is now dead ripe in most places, Mr. Miller said and dry weather would help the harvest. Moisture levels have been a little high in wheat harvested so far. • Second cut hay will have a higher yield than normal this year because of the good rainfall. Pasture too seems to be in fairly good shape for this time of year. In general, Mr. Miller said, crop problems seem to be at a minimum this year with the number of telephone calls to the Ministry office down significantly over previous, years, he said.

Why not a full house for last night of Festival Nearly a month ago the Blyth iummer Festival started oft' its first season with a near -capacity tudience. it was a great start and vas a great boost to the morale of ill those involved in the theatre ,vhether actors, directors, stage :rew or just enthusiastic suppor• :ers. Since then audiences have been very good, particularly last Friday night when there were only a couple of empty scats in the theare, Wouldn't it be great if we could send off the season the way it began, with a full house on Saturday night? Some of the actors involved may not be hack next year and it would be a great reminder to them of the wonder- ful summer they've had here, 1t would help make the actors want to conte back for the next sea on too.

PG. 1 Huron -Perth Separate Board debates outdoor education funds BY WILMA OKE The Huron -Perth County Rom- an Catholic Separate School Board at a meeting in Scaforth July 21 deferred action until more information IS available o11 a proposal that the Board pay One Dollar per student per day extra to a class participating In an extended outdoor program above the amount allotted for field trips. The finance committee was asked to arrange a meeting with Business Administrator Jack Lane to prepare a financial statement on the amount of money available to each school for field trips and on what the money is spent. Stratford trustee Ronald Marcy proposed the extra fee to assist classes in extended outdoor programs such as the Grade 7 class from St. Michael's School at Stratford which spent the week of June I6-20 at Camp Bimini. Mr. Marcy wanted to encourage such worthy programs and make it • easier for the leacher and students to plan one. The program had cost the 33 students and their teacher Paul Zybura $250 which they raised by their own efforts and their regular field trip money, Mr, Marchy said his proposal would have given them an extra $165 and they would have had to raise the res', Joseph Looby, Dublin, said it would be better to do it, "I'm for it il'the idea is to get rid of all this soliciting by students door-to- door for money for school activities. I think it is a good idea. You have no idea the number of tithes the students are after parents for money. I get many complaints from parents. Director of Education John Vintar said the students would have to raise part of the money. He said he docs not feel the Board should give the full amount to pupils and that they should have chores to do to earn some of the money, Mr. Looby asked,. "Working? Not begging!" Mr. Vintar said that when everything is given to children they have nothing to do. That's where vandalism and such got started, he said. Some of the trustees were worried that by the board giving more money for field trips they would be promoting longer trips- and ripsand in the end the students would continue to try to raise money on their own. Stratford trustee Howard Shantz said, "We are not talking about trips to Ottawa or Montreal but outdoor programs such as Camp Bimini." Joseph Tokar, Superintendant of Education, spoke of the budget committee studying the allot- ments for field trips and the performing arts and in the next year or so it is proposed that the principal, the school staff and the parents through the PTA would discuss these decisions thus allowing the local community to reflect what it wants. Mr. Tokar said formulas have to be worked out and consider- ation will be taken of small schools, Mrs. Frances Westlake of Hensall was hired to teach in the junior division at St. Boniface School in Zurich.

That's pretty hard to imagine right now because most of us think of garbage as just that -garbage. But in fact, it's a potential resource. And the Ontario Ministry of the Environment is harnessing it. How does it happen? By recycling. Garbage will be taken to recycling centres where it will be shredded, separated, and some of it, turned into fertile soil to re- vitalize barren areas of the province. The same basic shredding and separating process will also produce fuel, paper, cardboard, metals, And we've just begun to explore the possible end uses of garbage. Landfill Recyclable materials Fuel 41 Separation of light and heavy material The system: step by step. A centre for advanced research will come up with many more. Where is it happening? Our Ministry has already inaugurated Ontario's first recycling centre in North York, In the next two years, similar centres will be built to serve London, Sudbury, Peel, Halton, Metro Toronto and -'4.-, for various meetings during 1974-1975 term was distributed to the board members. Stratford trustee, F.J. Vere, chairman of the Building and Property Committee in reply to enquiries from Zurich ratepayers as to what happened to the proposal to add an addition to St. Boniface School at Zurich this year, said that the Ministry of Education had turned down the project for 1975. The addition, estimated to cost $102,000 would have included a library resource centre, change rooms, a health room and the conversion of an existing resource centre into administration offices, The Board approved a request from the County of Huron to circulate the details of the contest for the design of a county flag to children in Huron separate schools. There will be only one meeting on August 18 at the board office. south eastern Ontario, In 15 years there will be recycling centres all across the province to handle 90 per cent of Ontario's garbage -everything from abandoned cars to organic waste. Why recycle? Because the people of Ontario -all of us -pile up garbage at three times the rate that the population increases. The Ministry is working on ways to reduce that amount, but we'll always have garbage. And we're having trouble finding places to put it and the landfill to cover it. Once garbage is being recycled, those problems will be over. But more important than the dumping problems, we're literally throwing away valuable resources with every ton of garbage we discard. In a community of 100,000, ,/ garbage recycling will conserve the equivalent of up to 3,500,000 gallons of fuel oil a year, 3,600 tons of reclaimed steel, 4,500 tons of glass. 3„ Our recycling program is considered one of the most advanced in the world. It's a ' r commitment to a different way of living. And the whole world will be watching Ontario's garbage come up roses.

There seems to be a credibility gap between what local politicians in most areas do, and what they say. The politicians, whether they be township, village or town councillors, school board trustees or any other elected official often bewail the fact that people just don't seem to be interested in the affairs of their community. Why don't people show up at the meetings, they wonder? Why don't people take time to come to them with their problems? Yet on the other hand, there seems to be a glorious lack of effort on the part of the politicians to attract the people. We don't know of one council or public body of any size around here that gives regular notice of when its meeting will be held. From the township council to the county school board there is little or no attempt made to let people know when a meeting is coning up. One school board trustee the other day said that people really shouldn't have to be reminded because the meeting is held the same day each month. That's like saying a store doesn't need to advertise because it's been located in the same place for years. People need to be reminded. If they didn't get notices of meetings regularly, probably even some of the trustees and the councillors would forget to show up. Whether it be a notice on the town bulletin board, a small ad in the local paper or something on radio and television, there should be at least some effort to let people know when a meeting is coming up. Then if they don't show up, well at least they had the chance. Wasting our future A colleague the other day wondered if all the effort to save farmland was really worth the fuss. After all, she reasoned, it wasn't long ago that farmers clai,med they couldn't grow white beans in most areas of Huron county and now they're protesting against an Ontario Hydro generating plant because it will kill the lucrative white bean industry which now occupies a good deal of the county's land. Technology, she pointed out, is always advancing. If we lose more farmland we'll likely find ways of making what's left produce more. She has a point of course, but she also misses a few. For one thing, if we continue to use up farmland at the rate we now are, we soon won't have AN 1 larmland left in Ontario, and technology, advanced as it is, hasn't yet •ante near finding a way to grow crops on the rocks of northern, central and eastern Ontario. Secondly, sure we may be able to improve production from the land remaining if we continue to put land under concrete for power stations, parking lots and subdivisions, but it will be a tremendous cost. And why bother? This precious technology we hear so much about could just as easily be used to make it easier to build our power plants and cities on the rocks of northern, central and eastern Ontario as try to make the best of a bad situation once the agricultural land is used up. We seem to insist in this country on getting ourselves into trouble so we can show how smart we are at getting out of a disastrous situation, something like the heros of the James Bond movies who are always getting captured by the villains so they can show their ingenious ways of escaping. Sure we may find a way out, but what if we can't? When we discovered we didn't have much oil left, we still had natural gas. When we found out the natural gas was running out, we could still turn to coal, or nuclear power or water power. But if we run out of land, what have we to turn to. If suddenly we find in 30 years time that all the farmland has been used up for urban purposes, we'll suddenly be in a panic situation and there will be no alternative. We will have cooked our own goose because you just can't turn a city street back into a farm field. Why take that risk, when we can build our cities and our power plants elsewhere? Start planning now The Blyth Summer Festival which ends this weekend can only be counted a tremendous success. Audience attendance has been building stetrrhly and remarkably considering the lack of publicity provided by the media of larger centres. Already the board of directors is beginning to lay plans for a bigger and better festival next year. The season may be longer and is likely to include more than two plays. The other aspects of the festival such as art displays and music will also likely be much more prominent. The time is right too for the rest of the community to start planning for next year. This first season has been a good one in that it has meant a new feeling of excitment in the Blyth summer; it has meant excellent theatre for those who've always liked theatre and introduced many people to theatre who always thought they wouldn't like it. But the festival can ,do much more. It can be of much greater benefit to the community as a major boost for the economy. To do this, however, there must be a wider effort made by the whole community. We need to concentrate on making Blyth an interesting place for those who come to visit the Festival. We must try to find ways to make sure the people who visit the Festival stay a while because only then do we get full advantage of the fact that thousands of people are coming into the community. These people have money to spend, If they don't spend it in Blyth, they will find other places to spend it. But in whatever we do, we must avoid making Blyth a tourist trap. Any efforts to spur the tourist industry must be done with care and good taste. It'Sa big challenge, but one that's worth accepting. Few were willing to predict the success we've had so far, That success was due in large measure to the enthusiasm of the people of the Blyth community. If we devote this same enthusiasm to planning for next year and the years to come, the whole community will benefit enormously. Apicnic is Stratford As others see it The supreme penalty The growing public debate over whether or not the death penalty should be carried out in Canada is bringing into focus a whole range of legal arguments, as well as the spiritual torment of several persons whose decisions have sonic bearing on the matter. Opinion, of course, ranges from the position of police officers who are demanding ging employed andinagain that wherehanthe lawbe says it must be, to that of Solicitor General Warren Allmand who has said he will resign rather than approve a legal killing. Present Canadian law, of course, demands the death penalty for the convicted killers of policemen and prison guards, but every death sentence since 1963 has been commuted by the federal cabinet to life imprison- ment. The recent decision that a superior court cannot overrule a jury court's decision to acquit (as in the case of Dr. Henry Morgcntaler) has led to the logical argument that the cabinet should not have the right to overrule a jury court's decision to convict. Along with Mr. Allmand we believe that neither we as humans, nor our courts as agents of the legal process have the right to take a human life. But we also believe that never should a convicted killer be permitted to Those were 5 years- ago WEDNESDAY, JULY 29,1970 A large crowd of over 500 people suffered through one of the hottest nights of the year last cn4,lyds•, ,•'t,nti f"- Cltna the best .n the building.

As a deterrent that course would carry a pretty stiff punch - and at the same time would permit us to avoid those few terrible instances of error when it was found that a person was innocent long after he or she was hanged. In the meantime the federal cabinet faces one of its most obvious tests following the conviction last week of the two men who shot and killed two policemen in New Brunswick and buried them in shallow graves. •Wingham Advance•Tlmes the days areas of the province.

"It's a good idea to purchase the cattle as early as possible," Dr. Davis recommends, "That way, the animals can be shipped and acclimatized to conditions in Ontario before the inclement weather of fall arrives." He warns cattlemen not to buy sick or diseased animals, no matter how inexpensive they are. The high mortality rate among such cattle makes it difficult for the producer to come out on top. Dr. Davis advises producers to consider the purchase of precond- itioned cattle may be more expensive, but emphasizes that preconditioning may save the animal from suffering additional stress. Weaning, vaccination and castration immediately prior to travel may result in the animal being overstressed before it is shipped. 'LET US MAKE YOUR OLD FURNITURE BETTER THAN NEW!

PG. 6. THE ULYTH STANDARD, JULY 30, 1975. Bill gives his summary of summer safety hints Herewith Smiley's bi-annual Summer Safety Hints. Various departments of government: Ag- riculture, Lands and Forests, Tourism and Tripe, Fire and Water -•annually send out a list of things to do to protect your life and various other things during the hot season. It is my opinion that these lists are not only repetitious and redundant, but overlapping and underpinning, so once in a while I try to publish a few Summer Safety 'Tips that can be used as tiller by all lazy, hot, tired editors, Even though the summer is half over, and thousands of people have drowned, or nearly drowned, I think a few swim- ming suggestions would not conte amiss. Never forget that amiss is as good as annile. So my first tip is that if you're going to swim aniile. make sure you don't go amiss. I think that requires no further explanation. Speaking of amiss, never try to make love either reclining in a .•a''oc, or in a reclining canoe. In the first instance, if the thing rolls over, which it usually does, you are caught in a death -clutch and will have to punch your partner in the belly to break the hold, This is considered bad form. It is also embarrassing, not to say dangerous, if your partner is swifter with a left hook than you are, In the second place • a reclining canoe - it is obviously leaking, and you shouldn't be out there in the first place, Much better to confine your canoe love -making to a standing position. Then, if women's equilibriumation seems to be taking over • that is, if there is any chance that you are going to be the (east bit upset, jump overboard and swim like hell for the nearest lifeguard. Now for diving. Never dive into unknown waters. Many a elan you'll meet 00 the streets, whimpering, limping, middle-- aged, headscarred, Ask hint what the matter is, and he'll respond: "1 diva. into unknown waters." This is his euphemism for admitting he is married. Try not 10 dive into a swimming pool. Use a diving pool.

On August 1. an historical plaque marking the founding cif Clinton a century ago will be unveiled on the lawn of Wesley-- t Willis United church. The plaque, which will be erected by the Ontario Heritage Foundation under the newly created ministry of culture and recreation, will be unveiled by Jack Gibbings of Stratford, a great-grandson of Jonas Gibbings one of the earliest men to settle in Clinton, and the son of Ben Gibbings who served as the town's mayor from 1912 to 1913, MPP Jack Riddell, MP Robert McKinley, and Prof. K.C. A. Dawson an associate professor of anthropoplogy at Lakehead Uni- ersity, representing the Ontario Heritage Foundation, are all expected to attend the 2 pail. unveiling ceremonies. The erection of the historic plaque will recognize the joint efforts of Muriel Trott, Jerry Fremlin, Doris Batkin and Kay Lockhart, who were a driving force behind the project. The new plaque will be the fot/rth to he placed in the Clinton area, A cairn on the lawn of Ontario Street United was erected in memory of Clinton's pioneers; while an historical plaque at the sank site recognizes the contrib- utions of Horatio Emmons Hale (1817-1896) whose intensive stu- dy of the languages and customs of the Six Nations of the Grand River were compiled into the classic book "An Iroquois Book of Rites" which was published in 1883. A final historical reminder in the form of a cairn on Highway 4 near Huronview honours Major- General Sir William Dillon Otter, whose distinguished military ser- vice spanned the Fenian Raids of 1866-1870 and the Boer War (1899-1902). He served as Chief and Inspector General of the Canadian General Staff before he retired with the rank of General in 1920. owl YES you can still 'get err There are st nights left.

Never Clive alone. Personally, when 1 dive, whether it is from 30 feet, 12 feet, four feet, or even my accustomed 18 inches, 1 ant always accompanied by water wings, an inflated tube, and my entire family. It may not be Olympic grace and style, but don't have a hole in my head from hitting rocks. Never take a person out over his or her depth. In other words, if your mother-in-law is only five feet tall and can't swim,, don't take her out to where it is six feet deep. Just take her out where it is five feet deep, hand her some lead weights, and tell her to do push-ups. Enough about swimming. How about boating? Well, the same principles apply there. Never put more than 12 people 1n a 12 tool boat, six people in a six foot boat, or more than 88 people in a bar that is built for 44. This way you can not only be safe but sorry. If it is a sailboat, do not Toad it up with sailors; Sailors are usually drunk and disorderly, according 10 the police records of all the ports of the world. The same, by the way, goes for soldiers, if you happen to have a soldier boat. If you have a power boat, of course, this is your chance to show the world.

FRED CARSON Death is not a thing to be feared; it is an inevitable part of living and should be acknowledged in the sante manner as breathing and eating. This is a philosophy which very few persons would expound: most of us probably do fear the last of a long list of events in our life and would do anything to avoid the situation. Indeed, it is jokingly staled that none of us wants to live to the age of ninety—until we reach our 89th birthday. Get the point? If I may speculate for a moment, it would seem that most of us fear death, because of the unknown clement, In otherwords, do We, at death just cease to exist, or do we enter some other sphere of life? And, if there is life after death, what form will it take? Will we spend eternity in a beautiful state of peace and joy, or are we destined for a place of selfishness and separation, a black alyss, Accepting the existence of eternal life, some would claim that everyone enters the Utopian type of existence. This teaching is contrary to the word of God, however, and is simply perpetuated by those who refuse to accept the truth. It gives there a false sense of security and permits them to continue to believe that they are 'good', without sin, not needing a Savior. What arrogance! Where do you stand? Are you one of these poor misguided souls, to whom Jesus ftddresses himself, "He who believes in him is not condemned; he who docs not believe is condemned already." (John 3:18). Where are you going to spend eternity? Will you be in heaven praising god with all the saints, or are you headed in to the black hole of hell? The decision is yours, Salvation or death, either way it is a personal decision, Say yes to Jesus by repenting of your sins and asking him to come into your heart and you will experience new life receiving the assurance that you will spend eternity with the Father. Moreover, you may claim the promise that you need "Fear not...for it is your Father's good pleasure to ).give you the Kingdom." (Luke 12:32). The Empty Pew Looking at THE EMPTY PEW BY W. JENE MILLER, PII.D. Now there was this church that was (raving a little trouble getting together on things.

Warble flies Almost every phase of the life ..I the warble fly seems to be aimed directly at making life miserable for cattle and cattlemen alike. Through July and August, says R, I:. Macartney, livestock specialist with the Ontario Mini- stry of Agriculture and Food, ;adult warble flies buzz annoyingly about cattle in an attempt to land Love and Hate The biggest problem in making a perfect batch of jam or jelly is getting a good gel, according to food specialists at the Ontario Food council, Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food, The secret of gelling lies in the ingredients • fruit, sugar and, sometimes, commercial pectin and acid. Never alter the quantity of these called for in a good jam or jelly recipe if you want a successful product. Apart from giving jam its special flavor, fruit also provides pectin for thickening. Pectin is essential for good gel formation, and is formed naturally in all fruits, but more in some than in others. Craba•t►ples, gooseberries, plums, apples and cranberries, for example, contain Targe a- mounts. Other fruits, such as blueberries, strawberries, cher- ries and peaches, contain little pectin and give thick jams only if combined with fruit rich in pectin or with commercial pectin in a powder or liquid form. They will, however, give a pleasant runny jam without the added pectin or fruit. The natural acid in fruits also determines how the gel forms. Fruits lacking in natural acid, such as peaches, raspberries, blueberries, pears and sweet cherries usually need the help of lemon, Time or orange juice to get a good gel. Commercial pectin contains acid which adds to the level of acid in fruits, so jams or jellies made with this product usually don't require the addi- tional acid. Sugar also aids in gel formation, develops flavor and acts as a preservative. 11110 to Icavc!

Like Paul said, we must hear one another's burdens because each man has to bear his own burden.

It's the Van Egmond House in hgnwndville, 120 -plus year old home of Constant Van Egmond, one of the Carly hardworking settlers in this part of the Huron Tract. C'onstant's famous father Anthony. was William Lyon MacKenzie's military leader in the Rebellion of 1837 and Constant and his -brothers started most of the industries that made Igmondvillc a flourishing village in the 1850's raid '60's. Some of the atmosphere of those days is being recreated at the Van Egmond House, where six students are working all summer, with financing from the Opportunities for Youth program. The house, with basic restoration partially completed this winter and one bedroom furnished authentically, is open seven days a week front nine until five. The students give tours and can answer questions about the house. Over 400 people were taken through the house and grounds over Centennial weekend and an old fashioned tea was served to half that number. In Ottawa three researchers found a treasure trove of material about the Van Egmond family. They found 44 pages of papers belonging to Col. Anthony Van Egmond, and arc having them A� Bobble Lawrle tomReeve, Village of Blyth • photocopied so that they can be available for researchers and visitors at the Van Egmond house. According to Dave Ring, the archivists in Ottawa weren't aware of the Van Egmond papers and the three girls had to wade through a tremendous amount of material before they found what they needed. They also found an early Wrap of the arca which will be used in a book about the colonel which a descendant, Fred Van Egmond is having published this summer. The Van Egmond house staff have built a number of picnic tables for use on the grounds and they say picnicers are welcome to use the tree lined yard. There's a herb garden growing and bee hives in operation. Plans for this summer call for the roof over the kitchen at the back of the house to be re -shingled "if we can find someone to put on cedar shakes", says Dave Ring, one of the guides at the house. Inside the house, the group is cleaning up and doing some restoration work. The kids hope to paint the outside trim on the house. There is no charge for tours of the house, but there is a sign up asking for donations. more than $200 was received from Centen- nial weekend visitors, Although the tea serving was specially for Centennial, "we can serve tea if someone really wants it", Dave Ring says.

We've already seen rhubarb, strawberries, cherries and peac- hes, and we've still got raspber- ries, apricots, plums, pears, grapes and apples to look forward 'to.

Seat belts could save your life Canadians from coast to coast will soon be the target of a special effort by Health and Welfare Canada to encourage the use of seat belts. 'l'hc federal government's - health department has issued a special pamphlet entitled "Belt - up!" which will be mailed to every household in the country. - The objective is to make the public aware of the importance of wearing seat belts. Every year more than 6,000 persons die on Canadian high- ways -in 1973, more than 220,000 Canadians were injured - yet, according to statistics, only about 15 percent of the population uses scat belts. It is estimated, the health department says, that automobile accident deaths alone could be reduced by as much as 40 percent if all occupants chose to wear the available scat belts. If you didn't receive one of these informative pamphlets and would like to have one, write to Regional Public Relations Officer, 9th floor, 789 Don Mills Road, Don Mills, Ontario.

Under the legislation, expected to go into effect October 1 of this year, spouses 60 to 64 fears of age who are married to Old Age Security pensioners will be eligible for benefit payments of an income -tested Spouse's Allow- ance which at the maximum would be equal to the Old Age pension and Guaranteed Income Supplement. It is estimated that between 65 and 90 thousand spouses will be eligible for benetits under the new program, at an estimated additional expenditure of $100 million. The income needs of other groups such as singles, widows, etc., are being examined under the inrume support and supple- mentation proposals of the Federal -Provincial Social Security Review. It is hoped that agree - mens can he reached to imple- ment the income support part of the system next year. The Souse's Allowance will escalate quarterly in line with increases in the Consumer Price Index just as the Old Age Security and Guaranteed Income Supple- ment payments do now, and will have the same status as the GIS for Income Tax purposes, This means that it will be deducted from the income of the recipient in determining the taxable income, Mr. Lalonde stressed that application forms would be supplied to pensioners who are presently in receipt of OAS and GIS benefits. The 13i11 also provides for other technical amendments as follows: The Governor -in Council wooled be given the authority to make a regulation whereby certain per- iods of absence from Canada may be counted as presence in Canada in determining eligibility for OAS. I'he Minister of National Health and Welfare would be given the authority to write off small or uncollectablc over-pay- mcntsofbenefits at his discretion to case financial hardship, If agreement were to he reached by a province and the federal government, any provin- cial benefits similar to those payable under the OAS Act may be added to the OAS cheque. The Old Age Security Fund would he abolished and benefits would be paid directly out of t e Consolidated Revenue Fund. The Old Age Assistance Act would be repealed, Brussels ba;! tournament The 5th Annual Brussels Invitational Men's Softball 'Tourn- ament will he held on August first, second, third and fourth.

JACK MEM WALTER MATTHAAU ADULT ENTERTAINMENT COCOA HYDE LUXE., ADULT ENTERTAINMENT v students very selective about summer jobs this year Walden says While the federal and provin- cial governments spend millions of dollars promoting the hiring of student labor during the summer months and sponsor summer employment programs through government grants, many stud- ents still conic up empty handed. 13ut a government can only do so much and in many eases students left without employment for the summer really didn't want it in the first place, Gary Walden of the Student Manpower Centre in Godcrich claims that the students seeking employment are becoming more selective and in sonic. cases are being left without summer employment because of it, "Students are becoming too selective and it was especially noticeable this year," he said, "'The jobs were available this year and anybody that wanted to work could find a job," But far too often students arc depending upon such services as the Student Manpower Centre to find them jobs. Gary adamantly stressed the point that the Centre was there to aid students in finding jobs and not to actually land the job, "We are not here to find them .jobs," he said, "We act as a point of contact. It's the students that have to be hungry for a jun.., Gary rated the placement through the centre as good as last year although this year there was a trend to more household jobs than factories. 1 -le estimated that by the end of July the centre will have filled 380 job openings with student labor. This figure repre- sents fewer jobs than were available last year but there were `i OPEN EVERY NIGHT 1btA11t . „ • C.311%34111 • •.O. 11191, ?UCS WED 111UIS JULY 1, 10 11 The most nIagitilirenl picture rrer!

"11 was also spread out more over the county which indicates that the services are getting better." Although farm labor place- ments have not usually been too nunlberous through the student manpower centre there were ample part -tinge farm jobs filled by students this year, The part-time work came - mainly during tliZ' haying season and Gary surprisingly admitted that they were some of the easiest job vacancies to fill. However, other than haying there was virtually nothing in the way of farm labor that the centre had to offer. Canada Manpower also oper- ated a student placement centre in Huron Park which was staffed by Mary Anne Cider]. Gary stated that the situation there was similar to the one in Godcrich in that most job vacancies were filled quickly and there was no noticeable increabe--r-decrcase in jobs or students looking for work last year. The job situation has under. star •lably slackened off now and students without work arc faced with taking available jobs or not working at all. Gary has some job openings but again, selective students would rather not work at all as take just any job. But then students who don't appear too eager arc not contacted when a job vacancy arises, Despite the slow period the Student Manpower Centre will remain open until the end of August. Gary will be vacationing in a few weeks and the centre will be staffed by Amy Pcrgel and Mary Anne whose main chore now late in the summer plainly concerns part time work, There are still jobs available and all the centre needs are students who arc willing to work.

In some cases, redistribution of insulating material, particularly in the attic, can be a worthwhile effort at a relatively low cost, according to agricultural engineers with the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Specific timing is critical for buildings, housing, livestock and poultry so that installation can be planned to avoid disruption of production schedules. With the cost of all forms of heat energy increasing, it makes sense to invest in additional insulating materials. In most a timc...but those times often conic more frequently than 1 wish they didt But in a business like this one, you just seem to get hooked.
