Only 2 per cent support seat belt law Fewer than two per cent of local people are in favour of the Provincial govern- ment's compulsary seat belt legislation according to Ray Hanna of Auburn who is circulating a petition calling for repeal of the law. The petition which originated in the Elora area has spaces for those against the law to sign and those for the law to sign and give their reason for being for the law. Mr. Hanna said more than SUU persons have signed as being against the law. He said he's been involved with petitions in the past but has never seen one that was so easy to get people to sign. The seat belt law is now in effect but is not being enforced until February 1. ''{:'r. •...... Y:Yn$•}r}: err.:. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1976..

Family Life co-ordinator hired by Separate Board BY WILMA OKE *Anthony Chatcr of St. Catharines was hired Monday night as the co-ordinator of the fancily life program by the Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School board at a meeting in Dublin. Mr. Clutter will go into the 19 separate elementary schools under the board's jurisdiction and set up the family life program: Pilot family life programs have been carried out in Grade t3 classes in the Sneaky leak found at last More than a week after it was first discovered the Blyth PUC found and repaired a leak to a main watcrmain on Tuesday morning. The leak had dropped pressure in the water system so badly that the water had to be shut off each night to allow the reservoir to refill. Although the P.U.C. had isolatled the problem to a two -block section of Mill street, workmen had been unable to find the exact location, Finally with the milder weather water began seeping from the leak only six feet from one of the places where they had been digging. The break was a complete crack in the pipe and was worsening when workmen located it, Those excavations are hard With so much digging going on in the vicinity of Blyth Public School in the past week municipal and school officials were afraid a child might get hurt in the holes left. Sp one day an announcement made over the public address system by Principal Doni Tremeer asking all students to stay away from the excavations. Our teacher of a junior grade was worried that her children might not understand the announcement so asked if anyone knew what excavations meant. A youngster instantly answered, Excavations, he said, were those hard tests that grade eight students had to take, schools, and in Grade 7 at St. Joseph' school in Sealorth. during the past tw years.

How to belt your children...safely Since.Onturio's'new safety belt law came into effect, many epople have been calling the Ontario Safety League for advice, particu- larly parents of small children.

Box 10, Blyth, Ontario. Telephone 523.9646, Do as ' we say, not ,as we do America, land of free enterprise, Celebrating two hundred years of the glory of the capitalist system. How many times have we north of the border been read a lesson on the value of free enterprise? We hear about it every time our government sets out to liberate some part of Canadian life from the domination by American free enterprise, When, for instance, we move to control foreign takeover of more and more Canadian industry we • hear the tut! Tut! from south of the border that after all it doesn't matter who owns the company an American or a Canadian it only matters that there are jobs provided and goods turned out (not to mention profits made). Likewise when the Bove. nment takes action to save Canadian television stations by regulating American commercials that can be dumped into Canada or to help theCanadian magazine industry by taking special tax status away from Time magazine we again hear of the horror of Americans that we could allow petty nationalistic feelings to become involved in the everyday world of business. i Thus is has been strange for us north of the border of late to hear some of the noises coming from the U.S. There is of course the matter of the sale of an American baseball team, the San Francisco Giants to a group of Toronto companies. Suddenly one hears mumblings in the U.S. that something must be done to stop this historic American team from shifting outside the U.S. There is talk of action in the Congress of the U.S. to prevent such a move. Can this be the same U.S. we've been hearing from for all these years? There's the case of the Concorde, that big bird built by the British and French that's faster than any passenger plane the Americans have built. There's talk, particularly spurred on by the U.S, aviation industry, tha the bird shouldn't be allowed to land in the U.S., thereby virtually killing off the British and French aviation industry as a threat to U.S. companies. Sounds suspiciously like nationalism getting mixed up in business. Can this be the same U.S.? And there's big fuss about oil. The U.S. has been telling countries for years that trade was a marvellous thing. What did it matter, the U.S. would tell some little country, if the country wasn't completely self-sufficient. Yet now we hear the plea of great urgency that the U.S. must become self-sufficient in oil as soon as possible. A great nation can't be dependent on others for oil. Can this be the same U.S.? Maybe in old age, after all this is the 200th birthday of the nation, the country is getting just a little forgetful of its past creed. Liberals show strength Most of us have enjoyed a chuckle at some tine or other in the past few weeks at the goings on as both the federal Progressive Conservatives and the provincial Liberals tried to choose a new leader. The Conservatives with a cast of thousands have presented the most opportunity for jokes but the Liberals group of non -household names , was the brunt of more than a few jokes too. The Liberals appeared to be in a bind with Bob Nixon leaving without apparently a logical replacement in the wings. Only three of the six candidates were in the present caucus and of these, two had only been members since the election last Fall. It seemed that the Liberals, reduced to third party standing already were in for a tough time in the election expected some time in the next year. Yet the election of nobodies on the weekend left just the opposite impression. Dr. Stuart Smith the new Liberal leader was totally unkown to most people until this weekend yet comes on as a strong alternative to the leaders offered by the N.D.P. and Conservatives. He seems intelligent, personable and witty, unlike Mr. Davis yet without being the smart•alec that Mr, Lewis seems to be. He presents a goad image to the urban voters, something the Liberals have always lacked, and yet seems to grasp the tremendous crisis agriculture in Ontario faces in the next decade. But just as impressive is the depth that the party has gained in this leadership campaign. David Peterson, the London lawyer who came second in the close race was shown the kind of organizational knowhow the Liberals have sorely missed in the past. Though not as warm and charming as Mr. Smith, he has the clean-cut executive manner that should help shoot down the feeling that the Liberals haven't the material to form a strong government. • And there's the surprise of the convention Albert Roy, the Ottawa M.P.P. who pulled his party together so strongly with a ringing speech on Saturday. He showed the kind of class and decency we could use more of in government. Most of all the lack of power brokering, the openess and friendliness of the convention gave we on the outside the feeling that democracy really lives in the Liberal party, that tie strings aren't pulled by fat men chomping on cigars in smoke tilled back rooms. It was truely refreshing not to see votes being openly bought and sold on the convention floor as we've often seen before in conventions of all parties. So now, only months after the gloom of the October election results, it seems the start of the Liberals may be higher than ever. If Smith, Peterson and Roy can do the things they want to do with the•internal workings of the party they may indeed win a big victory in the next election against the odds. They present a compitent team of fresh faces and we could use both compitency and fresh faces in the next government. The leaves of winter BY KEITH ROULSTON A lot of classrooms at colleges and universities were empty the other day. Unlike our local schools, it wasn't because of the weather. Students were busy boycotting classes and marching on Queen's Park to protest government policies about financing post secondary education. The students are concerned that colleges and universities will suffer from government attempts to beat inflation, even though the provincial government has not imposed the same ceilings on spending for this sector as it has for other parts of the education sector. The issue is complicated but one area of complaint of the students summons up little of my sympathy. ' Some of the protestors were worried that forgiveable govern- ment grants might be going to suffer from the program. They were worried that there would be fewer grants and more student loans given. If it happens, it would be a big step forward. I'm not so far away from college that 1 can't remember the student aid programs. I was even the recipient of a small student grant from the government. That still doesn't make it a smart or • even acceptable program. The Student loan " rogram in general is one ofthe best programs invented. It allows people the opportunity to get a higher education no matter what portion of the population they come from. It allows •them to get the education now and to pay back the loan once ,they begin to work. It opens up education to all but at the same time teaches It Give loans, not grants to students responsibility, The grant system does just the opposite. For those who may not know the system, students at post secondary schools can apply for government aid, based according to the ability of the parents to pay. A portion of this aid can be in a grant basis for students who supposedly qualify because of need. Sounds fine. But f saw the system in action and it's the greatest rip off there is. For one thing the determining of , need seems pretty cockeyed, I've seen students who haven't ,been supported by their parents in years not able to get even a loan let alone a grant, because the parents who didn't support them made enough money that the government felt the parent should pay the shot for the education, I've seen others who parents seemed quite capable of paying the whole bill for their son or daughter's education getting large loans and grants. I've seen too many friends take their grants to pay for Easter holidays in Florida or ski vacations in Switzerland. This is out and out fraud of the taxpayer, A friend of mine while I was in college was a touching example of what was wrong with the system. She is one of the most honest and consciencious people I know, She decided she wanted to go through school without getting all her money from her parents. The problem is that her parents were considerably well off and the government decided that my friend didn't deserve any money in either loan or grant form. So she was left without any government aid and didn't want to give in on her principals and borrow from her parents. She was forced to take part-time jobs to put her through school in a course that was already a very heavy one. She made it and is the kind of person who will always be a credit to her country. But she had to suffer like hell while a lot of freeloaders were given money to waste. The government loan program, as I said before, is‘ great, The problem is that it should be more readily available to all students, whether front well off families or poor ones. Perhaps the interest rate could vary according to need, but the loan program should be more freely administered. The grant program, however, should be scrapped altogether. It's a waste of you, the taxpayer's money and teaches only that you can rip off the government. That's a heck of a thing to be teaching our young people, particularly the university and college graduates, the people who are supposed to be tomorrow's leaderk.

McKeough says Municipa Ontario Treasurer Darcy McKeough .told school board representatives and elected offi- cials from Huron, Perth, Bruce and Grey Counties recently that Queen's Park intended to "tight- en its belt" on government spending relying on the "wrath of the taxpayer" to curtail govern- ment spending at a local level, In the eighth of 13 scheduled meetings with local politicians.. across' Ontario Mr, 'McKeough said that the restraint on government spending was a cooperative attack against infla- tion in Ontario, The treasurer told about 1,000 scho-I board trustees and munici- pal politicians that the growth of government spending over the past several years was one of thc main causes of inflation and that restraint in spending is necessary to prevent the inflationary situa- tion from running rampant. lie said that the rapist growth Ontario experienced in the '60's gave way to government policies offering services the public dcmandcd.

THE RED ROOM RiDDLE By SCOTT CORBETT A favourite author with our younger readers has added some chilling classic overtones to a scary ghost story in this book. Bruce and his friend Bill Slocum has been interested in stories of ghosts and their haunts, but nothing had prepared them for Jamie Bly and his bulldog. Jamie's knowledge of ghosts was overwhelming. When he offered to introduce the boys to some of his ghostly acquaintances, the challenge was irresistible. HOCKEY HEROES By GEORGE SULLIVAN In this book we find an action -filled text which moves as quickly as the game itself. George Sullivan brings us brief biograp- hies of a few of hockey's great players. Each of these men made a contribution to this exciting game, These stories written by a top columnist will be welcome reading for all young players and fans. chopped, Expounding his theory the treasurer said that the province built 200 arenas last year, all of which were wanted but few were truly needed, He suggested that local government follow the same trend as the province in that they use discimination in their budget cuts. He said that rather than allotting the same arbitrary percentage to every program they discriminate between those with vital needs and those that can afford to be cut back. Mr. McKeough urged the local governments to took for unusually resourceful means of raising money. He said that even with the suggested eight percent increase in aid from the province combined with what was judged to be a tolerable mill rate locally, not enough revenue would be realiz- ed to conduct business as usual. He estimated the rate of inflation for the year to jump between eight and 13 percent while the mill rate climbs 11 or 12 pereccnt. "You will have to find ways to cut costs at your level," warned Mr, McKeough. One way that arca local governments could scrutinize is administration, Mr. McKeough said that 16 percent of the Ontario work force is paid by the "public parse" and suggested that local governments may take a look at their salary costs. He •said the government has been engaged in staff reductions for a year and are looking at cutting out six percent of their civil servants, about 4.500 jobs. He added that any job cutbacks may require similar action at a ,senior level and that local governments may take a look al freezing the salaries of their senior employees. "We cut the number of Indians down; now can we cut the number of chiefs," said Mr. McKeough. The majority of. county, town and city municipal leaders pre- sent for the meeting agreed with the provincial treasurer that restraint was needed but felt that in some areas the province was leaving locally elected politicians out on a limb. Ed Dearing, chairman of the Perth County Board of Education told the treasurer that if his hoard maintained last year's expenses with no increase from the government they ...1)11 Id only THE BLYTH STANDARD, JANUARY 28, 1976. PG. 5. politicians must tighten their belts afford salaries and insurance costs on the- county's buildings. "We would not.be able to heat or light the buildings or purchase supplies for pupils," said Mr, Dearing. He said that taxpayers would blame their school boards for the problems and that not one of them would survive the next election. "Why has the province led us td the edge of a precipice and then turned away to Ict' us walk over the edge," asked the Perth chairman, Mr. McKeough explained that the problem was created when over the past several years local government spending increased about 70 percent while the corresponding mill rate increased only 17 percent, largely due to increased provincial assistance. He said that the increases that made this possible wcrc no longer available for the local govern. ments adding that the problem was not an easy one to deal with. The provincial treasurer said that explaining the cuts to the taxpayer was not fun. suggesting to Mr. Dearing that he "join the club." Councillor Dave Gower of Goderich asked the treasurer what recourse town councils had against requisitions by the county board of education, conservation authorities and the county government. Mr. Gower said that while the town tries to hold the mill rate, the county may come in with a requisition for a 20 percent hike that has to he gained through the taxes. meaning a 20 percent increase in the mill rate. . ".What recourse do we have to hold these requisitions in line"" asked the Goderich councillor. Mr. McKeough said that the county tax requests %sere held accountable through the public. He said that the town had representation on county louts and said that if the Iow n is not being heard at that level, then possibly thcir interests are nut represented properly. "1 don't know how much more accountability you can have," said Mr. McKeough, Huron County Warden Jack McC'ittcheon suggested to the treasurer that the province may not he .working with local governments to establish priori• ties in spending cuts. He said that in Huron's. case. the closing of 5v%. I her mer' h 'weater: a �s.es an» al-end.o ar et' h Goderich Psychiatric Hospital was an example of cutting back costs without knowing what was really good for the arca affected, "Let's cut back where it will do the most good and still maintaift services to the people," said Mr. McCutcheon, Mr. McKeough told the reeve that GPH was a provincial institution with very few contribu- tions locally for its operation. He said that there were 11,000 psychiatric hospital beds in the province and only 5,600 of them were filled. He said that Huron had had the benefit of GPH rather uniquely fora long time pointing out that people in his home riding of Chatham•Kent travel a lot farther for the same care than do the people .111 Huron. Mr. McKeough added that the need for psychiatric hospital facilities was diminishing in the province while the need for mental retardation facilities was becoming critical. "Itlwould he the height of folly at a time when restraint is needed to build a new facility for m sial • ' retardation when we have a facility now that can be used," said Mr, McKeough. nlvsrurIaa I F e deli ery to Tasker .

CARSON BLYTH ANGLICAN CHURCH ' Have you experienced the power of the risen Christ, or, are you among the great sceptics of our contemporary world? If you have seen His Glory • you will know with certainty that there is no limitation to what a Christian is able to do, The Christ -filled person claims the promises of Jesus depending upon Him to honour His assurance that "nothing will be impossible" to those who have faith. (Matthew 17:20). • It was in faith that the first disciples received the commission to "preach the kingdom of God and to heal" (Luke19:1,2) It was in faith that these twelve had the courage to go about "preaching the gospel and healing everywhere" (Luke 9:6) And bccausc they expected their . lord to perform miraculous acts they .were not disappointed,. We arc called today to "preach the same gospel and heal the sick" (Mt, 10:7,8) and in claiming His promises we arc able to experience His wonderful Glory. People arc finding new life in Jesus, as they are filled with the Spirit of wholeness, People are being healed of minor and terminal illnesses, , both through God's direct intervention .and through the handl of the medical profession. All healing comes from Jesus! There is much scepticism in today's world. We are now living in a world of doubt • a lifeless, hopeless, defeated world - bccausc it has turned from the wholeness of God. It is'a'faithless world which places its hope in the selfish materialism of a modern age. And like everything else associated with this world it is doomed ,to rust and decay. It is only in Jesus that our future remains secure, He continues without change, for He "is the same yesterday today and for ever." (Hebrews 13:8) His power has not decreased and His miracles arc still without limit, Consequently, there is much to;say about' Spiritual Healing, but space docs not permit an adequate account of it here:. Suffice it. to say, therefore,,thatprcaching,,apd healing arc not to be separated. Proclaiming gospel of'Jcsufi qhf st is a joyful a perience in the unending battle to save souls, but once having veccivcd "new life", the Glory of God will be experienced day, by day and minute byminute by, the 'child of God' as he walk's .with his Lord, 'Healing should remain an integral part of the total ministry. as Christians "pray for one another" (James 5:13.16). The world has an overabundance of scepticism, but the Christian has ample faith to know that nothing is impossible for those %vhu believe, Do you have this faith? It is yours by simply asking the originator, His Name is Jesus Christ! • .Church pp official supports Trudeau's stand A United Church official 0;ho has often disagreed with the present federal government, has come out in support of Prime Minister -Trudeau's year-end statement. The Reverend W, Clarke MacDonald, Secretary Depart- ment of Church in Society of The United Church of Canada, whose political leanings are usually in support of the New Democratic Party, says that in questioning Canada's structures and systems the Prime Minister is ".Consis- tent with his so-called 'philoso- phical musings' of the.past." "It is six years since he reminded us perhaps out of his Club of Rome contacts, that equally important to the gross national product as a measure- ment of a nation's health is the net social benefits of its various endeavours," Dr. MacDonald said in a ' statement released Tuesday. I r. ' "I have never been seized by Trudeaumanian," continued Dr, MacDonald,' ''hut' I. sec his year-end statement as an applica- tion of that philosophy - an invitation to dialogue which we ought to welcome. No doubt some critici's'm of the present controls program and its method of application is justified. Yet what the Prime Minister was saying in that speech, and to which big Tabor and big business reacted in such a hypersensitive manner cannot be denied, We cannot go on demanding more and more without finding ourselves on a collision course." Dr. MacDonald said he found it interesting that "the very clay the Chairman of the Toronto Board of Trade was rebuking Mr. Trudeau and extolling the virtues of the free enterprise system, the same IDA s A pig wENEED Ail TYPES news told 'of a, tenement house burning in Montreal and six children dying in the flames.

"The fact that the gap is widening between the top twenty percent of our people who receive 42.7 percent of the national Income and the bottom twenty percent who received 3.9.percent In 1973 is not a success story in humanitarian terms," the church- man said, He concludt tI: "There are, I am sure, many legitimate criti- cisms to be made of Mr. Trudeau and his policies, but if I were to translate. what he said into theological terms it would be: "Remember the world of the Lord, thou shalt have no other gods before me"..,that nicans today, neither free enterprise, socialism nor coninu nisei ' "Mr. Trudeau, has issued an invitation to what could be creative dialogue.

The 1974.75 program was the first major province -wide effort by the Ministry of Natural Resources to provide winter trail facilities, Under the program over 8,000 miles of snowmobile trails were groomed and maintained by clubs and agencies such as the conservation authorities and the Ministry, throughout the pro- vince, In accordance with the increas•' ed popularity of cross-country skiing in Ontario, the 1975-76 program has been extended to include both snowmobile and cross-country ski trails, This year funds will not be provided for the development of any new trails. Instead the program provides assistance for' the maintenance.and grooming of existing snowmobile and cross- country ski trails. Provincial assistance is avail- able to clubs, conservation authorities and municipalities in several farms: • Direct grants arc being made available for the maintenance and grooming of existing snowmobile and cross-country ski trails. Those clubs or agencies that are in receipt of grants must open their trails to the public. • As long as the supply lasts. trail signs are being provided tree of charge by the Ministry to those clubs or agencies who apply for them. - Grooming equipment is available for loan to area clubs for the maintenance For. their trails. These clubs must havt. an insurance policy to cover any damage done _ to the machige. property damage or personal injury. • The total provincial program this year involves $500,000 of which the Wingham District was allocated $6.000 for snowmobile trails and $5,000 for cross-country ski trails. Five snowmobile clubs hate applied for 11 portion of this money through grants. There were no applications received from clubs or agencies interested in cross-country skiing. The Ministry is maintaining one snowmobile trail and two cross country ski trails on public land with a portion of the above monies. Thcsc arc the Culross Snowmobile Trail and Falconer.

JENE MiLLER, Ph.D. These kids sure get under your skin! They come into the world all helpless and demanding and one can only take care of them or feel guilty. They place obligations on anyone they can to buy food and clothes and provide them some kind of place to grow and be, They get along to the age when they begin to get into every part of life and they want to have a hand in everything that other people do. They get to the point where they ask embarrassing questions and they don't like simple answers which could at least get by without embarrass- ment. They seem to be growing on the edge of constant need and no matter how much you do for one there is always something else that the kid wants you to do. They brio' home friends who are weird, and yet they seem to think they have a right to demand that anyone who loves them has to love all their weird friends, They will promise the most unlimited help to someone because they think they can turn to those who love them and get help for everyone else. They seem to think that energy and money grow on trees and they don't even stop to say "Thank you for doing what I asked you to do." They just take for granted if someone loves them they can be ridiculously demand- ing of them. They have a habit of getting really nosey about where people go and what they do, They , resent being left out of any part of the family's life, even though ,they were not invited in. , And talk about nosey and demanding kids, let me tell you about a guy named "Jesus"!

W h at' i s so wonderful in Wonder foods? BLACKSTRAP MOLASSES, a by- product yproduct of sugar refining, is a source of available iron but offers little else. Other sources of iron such as meat, eggs and green vegetables are just as good and somehow more appealing and at the same time superior sources of other nutrients. Besides there is NO substantiation for claims made that blackstrap molasses can cure ulcers, cancer, _varicose veins or arthritis, ROSE HIPS, the seed pods of roses, are a rich source of vitamin C. There is nothing unique about the vitamin C from rose hips and you may prefer cheaper sources like tomatoes, ' oranges, grapefruit, broccolir canteloupe, strawberries or green peppers. BREWERS' YEAST and WHEAT GERM are indeed sources of protein and B vitamins but eating wheat germ and yeast is neither the most appetizing way or the most economical way to obtain these nutrients. ' GARLIC brought fame to Mediterranean cuisine but it really will not cure intestinal disorders and tuberculosis of prevent cancer, pneumonia or ming, HOENY, sometimes called the nectar of the gods, is powerless to cure arthritis. Some claim it can be used without restraint by diabetics, Nothing could be further from the truth, Honey is a good source of energy but otherwise its nutritional value is negligible. THE BLYTH STANDARD, JANUARY .28, 1976. PG. 9. Duff's church reviews work of 1975 Members of the congregation of Duff's United Church, Walton held their annual meeting on Sunday afternoon, January 25, following a pass around lunch at noon. This took place after the morning worship, service. There was an attendance at the meeting of approximately 41. An excellent report was received. Rev. Ed Baker ' chaired the meeting. Mrs, Harvey Craig was nominated as 'secretary, and the • minutes of last year's . annual were approved as read. A moment's silence was • observed to honor the memory of those who passed away in 1975 followed by prayer by Rev. Baker. Two new members ' to the session were accepted. Gerald Smith was nominated to replace Don McDonald and Laverne Godkin to replace Ron Bennett. Four new members were named to replacement of Stewards. These were to be decided and installed at a later date. The committee of Stewards held four meetings during the year, and attended two Official Board meetings. They had the W�odlo.t improvement A properly 'managed farm woodlot will furnish a convenient and economical supply of timber, fuel ' and" fence posts for home consumption and, at intervals, will' yield valuable sawlogs and veneer , logs for market. Farm woodlots will produce much valuable:. material without im- provement work, but there will aso be many undesirable, crooked and defective trees of little value that could have been eliminated. More efficient management of many of these woodlots- could double or triple'the .value of their output, The majority of farm woodlots in Southern Ontario are in need of some type of improvement work. Instead of being left to grow untended, young second -growth woodlots may be treated to produce more high-quality wood more quickly for higher profits. The most important treatment in • outside of the church painted, also repaired brickwork on the steeple, and new downspouts on eavestroughs. The U.C.W. had a most successful year. The highlights of the year was the annual Turkey '`, Supper in November and the 50th Anniversary celebration which was held on June 8th when a large crowd attended the special service, followed by a bountiful lunch. The U.C.W. have purchased the Observer on the Family Plan and are sending a copy to each family of the congregation. They are hoping it will be read, and try • to pass along some good from it. Anniversary speakers were suggested. The morning church time is still 11:15 a.m. followed by a discussion. Jack McEwinQ moved a vote of thanks to Rev. Baker for his leadership since' coming to this charge, He replied thanking everyone for his heart warming welcome. His holiday break is undecided. The meeting was moved' to • adjourn, increases farm a young woodlot is a thinning when the trees are four to ten inches in diameter and 30 to 60 years of age. Thinning is done by cutting or girdling low - value trees to stimulate the growth of the remaining trees and to improve the quality and compos- ition of the woodlot. Thinning the young forest may be compared to weeding a garden in that the production of wood is concentrat- ed on the most .valuable trees, Older woodlots will benefit if the Tess valuable species and the leaning, twisted, branchy, crook- ed, diseased and over -mature trees are removed. There is a great difference in the commer- cial value of the different species, those of least commercial value being known as "weed trees", These "weed" species will never grow into good -quality timber and should be removed, as 'early as possible. Improvement work in COLD WE T SPELL NS Shredded Wheat such older woodlots may still be carried out at a profit if the trees are big enough. ' To assist woodlot owners in the most efficient management of their woodlots, Ministry of Natural Resources staff will inspect a woodlot on the owner's request to advise on management techniques. Of even more import- ance, the Woodlands Improve- ment Act authorizes the Ministry to enter into agreements with woodlot owners under which woodland improvement work may be done free of charge by the Ministry, All owners of five or more acres of woodland qualify for woodland improvement assist- ance if the woodlot is approved as suitable for forestry purposes, The Ministry of Natural Re- sources provides the labour and supervision to do the actual thinning of young woodlots or girdling of undesirable cull trees profits In older woodlots at no cost to the owner. The responsibility of the landowner is to protect the ' woodlot from grazing and fire and to report significant insect or disease damage to the Ministry office. The agreement extends for a period of fifteen years in most cases and, if the land is sold, the agreement can be assumed by the new owner for the balance of the fifteen year period, Any woodlot owner interested in details of this assistance is invited to contact the Ministry of Natural Resources office at Box 490, Wingham, Ontario (357- 3131, or Zenith 9200), The Wingham District includes Huron and Perth Counties as well as Huron, Kinloss, Culross, and Carrick Townships in Bruce County and Minto Township in Wellington County.

These include the rental of automatically operated security lights for farm, commercial and residential rural properties. Ser- vice will, however, be continued to existing customers. In future. customers will be required to purchase security lights from private contractors. In addition. Ontario Hydro will no longer sell or rent Cascade water heaters for new installa- tions. Customers s v:she ng to obtain these will be required to purchase them privately. Custo- mers presently renting water heaters can continue to do so with full service maintained until satisfactory alternative arrange- ments can be made. These policy changes apply only to the 720.000 customers served directly by Ontario Hydro in its rural and local systems and do not apply to the approximately 2 million customers served by municipal utilities. • The estimated capital reduction, by the withdrawal of the facilities is expected to exceed $5 million annually, and is part of Ontario Hydro's program to cut costs in support of the current anti-infla- tion campaign. hand it to her personally.

She couldn't have picked a worthier group. But her spending pattern, as you describe it, is severely neurotic, A woman who buys clothes she. never wears, and gives them away to make room for more clothes she will never wear, needs profes- sional help more than she needs a trip to Hawaii, the Bahamas or Europe. quite a lady us were, the song was amusing. But it took on new meaning when we grew up and heard it whistled ominously in one of the finest mystery plays ever written or performed in the world. "The Mousetrap", a mystery set in a stately English boarding house, has entertained more people than any other play, Last November 25, it celebrated its 23rd anniversary on the stage at London's West End and it is still being performed there seven or eight times a week, making it the longest continuous ran of any play in the world. It has earned more than six million dollars at the box office, run for close to 10,000 performances and enter- tained close to four million people. When the play opened in London. the world had other things on its mind. There was a war in Korea and unrest was rampant throughout the world. Television was coming into its own and keeping people home I g more and Britain was about to crown a new Queen. But people jammed. the theatre, recognizing tine entertainment when thLy saw it and they still continue to jam the theatre because in all these years, the play has not lost its appeal. even though it is a typical Whodunit with the surprise ending. The play has been translated into 22 languages and performed in 40 other counties. It has been staged by probably every little theatre group that ever was formed, and professional and amateur actors all over the world. Jhe, fame of ,the play never came about because big stars graced the theatre stage. It was the excellence of the play alone that made it successful. For behind it was the genius mind of Agatha Christie, one of the master writers of our century, ***** Agatha Christie died last week at the age of 85 at her home near London. "Mousetrap" was only one of the 17 plays she wrote and in addition, she wrote 85 crime novels, turning them out like. the rest of us write hasti-notes. She created Detective Poirot (remem- ber him in "Murder on the Orient Express", one of last year's top movies:') and oddly enough wrote her last novel about Poirot more than 30 years ago, gently killing the hov oft' in the 42nd and last novel featuring his adventures. As if she were predicting the future, she allowed that novel to be published last fall and creator and created died within a 1:,w months of each other. Another creation, Miss Jane Marple. still lives and will probably be featured iii her last -written navel t� t � I • ► published . after her death. During her 56 -year career which • began during the First World War, Dame Agatha Chris - tie's hooks sold more than 350 million copies. According to the 'Guinness Book of World Records. this makes her one of the , two bestsellingauthors in history. iA The other is Georges Simenon, the Belgian mystery writer. The night she died. the curtain went up as usual for "Mouse- trap" as it was presented for the 9,612th time. But the lights were dimmed in honor of the great lady who has given so much to the world of the arts and provided so many hours of topnotch entertain- ment. DEAR ANN LANDERS: I hope you won't throw my letter away just because It's from a mixed-up teenager. I really feel yucky and need help. My main problem is I don't like my personality, I try to be overly friendly to cover up my shyness and then I act loud, I'm jealous of certain girls and wish I was like them but when I try to be, ; it doesn't come off. Some days 1 feel popular just because a certain guy says hello or smiles at me. The next day I'm miserable because a group of girls are huddled in a corner and I think they are laughing at me behind my back,' , My grades are O.K. but they could be better, Mom says I'm . disorgnizcd.

Same gripes, same insecurities and feelifts of inadequacy. it's ajl a part of growing up. I'd like to recommend a book I think will help a lot. It's called, "What To Do When and Why -- at Parties at Home and at School in -Your Growiong World," -The book was written •by M. Y. Stewart and Anna Buchwald, It costs $7,95 and is well worth it. DEAR ANN LANDERS: We have` very few friends left (after 21 years of marriage) because my husband finds fault with every couple 1 invite over. Mrs. A. laughs too loud, Mrs. B. Wears too much makeup, Mrs. C's denture -clicking drives him nuts, Mrs. D's husband brags about his money, Mrs, E's husband plays a rotten game of bridge, etc, Any suggestions? --Davenport Fan DEAR FAN: Nobody's perfect except him, of course, but you can keep looking for that ideal couple.

At the beginning 'of each new year, many people make resolutions to better them- selves during that year, Some- times they do, raid sometimes they don't. But, as a great philosopher once said "Not failures, but low aim is crinis." At F. E. Madill last week, students assembled in .hc big gym for. a very short assembly. Usually an assembly acts as. a transitory buffer from the fun of the weekend to the work of the met to improve their gymnastics skills. The club's aini was to recruit prospective team mem- bers for competitions in the future, The club was also open to those who enjoyed Gymnastics and the general Physical Fitness of the sport. The club was nruanized by Teresa Cronnin and Linda Bryce. The activities of this club is now over but we hope the extra training offered by this club will benefit the team members and Icad then to success in their future meets. "IT HAPPENED IN 552 FIRST!"

A survey showed that there was a tendency for children under five to swallow cleaning agents and other none food products. Children that were around • the age of 4 and 5 swallowed mostly aspirin • usually children's aspirins. The survey also showed that for every case reported there are approxi: mately eight eases that are not reported. Manufacturers are doing noth- ing to help the situation either. They make their products with trait flavoured scents to cover the smell of the Kcal product. 'They. also use colouring which makes the product look like something that the child would like. Also the containers manufacturers use have easy to open tops along with attractive labels. 'these things attract children. Up until 1971 all products gut inadequate con• sideration of their safety until the government stepped in. Up until then the government had had the power to do something for 10 years but had done nothing. Slowly something , was being done. In 1962 the hazardous substances act enforced warning labels. Public warnings could be issued against hazardous pro- ducts and these products could be taken off the shelves. In 1971 the poison prevention packaging act established standards for packag• ing. Some protective devices or ways of protecting children are the palm and turn caps and the spray cons where the child's linger cannot reach up into the hole to get to the nozzle. These caps brought the percentage of poisonings from prescription pills down. These chiltl•resistant con- tainers remind people when they open them that children enirand arc being poisoned' from these drugs. "'this may make them keep them hidden away." Mr. Jamisiln, the executive vice president of the packaging Association of Canada, gave this answer when asked why there is an industrial resistance to child- proof closures. "Most childproof press • down - and • turn closures arc imported from the U.S. and add about 7c to the package, for • nEateriiei}•• costs ands. red signed sldipping-containcrs `Mant'ifactur- ers- aren't sure all' consiuticrs want to bear this extra coStt..' Whose fault, then, are all these childhood deaths and injuries? Partly the parents and partly the manufacturers. To ' make the percentages of deaths and injur•. ics drop even farther we must be prepared to pay more. After all 7c is worth a child's life. THE BLYTH STANDARD, JANUARY 28, 1976. PG. 15.

Bacterial pneumonia can come almost simultaneously with the onset of flu. The person is very sick with respiratory symptoms, and it's hard to tell the pneumonia from the flu. But it can be done by x-rays and tests. There's another pattern of attack of bacterial pneumonia. This happens when the person is recovering from the flu, maybe a week -later, when he or she is improving, There may be shaking chills, fever, a cough that prdouces sputum, and some other symptoms. Bacteria that causes pneumon- ia are present in healthy throats. _it's when the body's defense are weakened in sonic way that they multiply and do serious damage.

A report was made on a visit to R.E. McKinley, M.P., during the Christmas vacation. Mr, Adrian Keet and Mr. Ben Malda represented the Winghani Pro - Life group. They questioned the federal Justice Department's new committee to stedy the operation of the abortion law. Dr. Marion Powell has been appointed as one of the three members of the committee, Dr, Powell is a prominent pro -abortionist, a member of the Doctors for Repeal of the Abortion Law, a small medical group lobbying for the removal of abortion from the Criminal Code••that is, abortion on demand. Mr. Kest and Mr. Malda asked Mr. McKinley to ask mand. Mr. Keet and Mr. Malda asked Mr, McKinley to ask Justice minister Ronald Basford• at least to appoint a fourth person (pro-life) to the 'committee, Mr. McKinley )aid that he would like to see three independent mem- bers with no convictions on, either side of the abortion issue sit on the Abortion Committee. The two representatives also requested that the party whip question the terms of reference of the committee. The committee is asked to determine whether the views of doctors and hospital boards are dictating the refusal to have abortions performed. Nowhere is the committee asked to determine whether the views of doctors and hospital boards are resulting in abortion on demand being prac• tised in some hospitals. It is well established that there is wide- spread abuse of the abortion law. Only an unbiased committer guided by unbiased terms o1 • reference can serve any valid purpose and is acceptable.

BY BILL SMILEY Sonic random observations this week on a variety of topics, none of them world-shaking. If you are short of either time or patience, turn to the classified ads for some real entertainment. For about 10 days over the holiday 1 had my grandson, Or rather, he had me. At his beck and call. For about 12 hours a day. Hr's at that very interesting stage where he's learning to talk, fast. You know, putting phrases together, repeating everything he hears, understand- ing most of what you say, but not yet quite ready to carry on a conversation, Two phrases, however, he has down pat. The first is: "Come on!" delivered in a peremptory tone and accompanied by a firm grasp of a chubby fist on my index finger. This comes immediately after I have settled down with my paper and a beer and lighted a cigarette. It means he wants assistance in building a pyramid or getting 'his glass of "dooce" (anything from milk to orange juice) or letting the "kycat" in for another session of torture. What it really means, of course, is that he has a distinct aversion to Grandad retiring from the action. The second phrase, delivered in a piteous tone, is "Help me" accompanied by a forlorn look and a tug at any portion of my Biel thinks some random thoughts anatomy available. This means he wants me to plug in. the tree lights, or hold him up so he can watch the record twirling on the turntable or reach something he can't and wants to break. *** Why don't the Conservatives make their leadership race just that? Put the entire .18 or 36 or whatever of them on a trackat the summer Olympics, send them off, and the last man to fall flat on his face becomes their leader. It would make just as much sense as choosing them by ballot, which is also a process of finding the guy or gal with the best wind. Personally, I'd like to see Flora MacDonald have a shot at it. The result might be worse than the massacre of Glencoe, but if 50 per cent of the voters are women, it would give them a chance to stand up and be counted. And 1 think if would terrify Pierre T. One guy I would hate to see win the leadership would be Paul Hellyer. If he won it, the Tories could kiss their hopes goodbye for another decade. Here's his record. Liberal cabinet minister: ran for Liberal leadership, lost, sulked, resigned as minister; formed his own rightist Action • Canada party, a total flop; joined Conservative party; undistin- guished Tory MP; lost his seaLin 1974. If the Tories chose him as leader, it would illustrate nothing more than their ' unquenchable belief in the infallible powers of snake oil as a remedy, Still on politics, I was sorry to see Dave Barrett lose in B.C. He, I has one . of those qualities so carefully hidden by most politi- cians - a sense of humor, Maybe he went too far too fast, but he added a lot of zest to the national political scene. And speaking of the Olympics, I (earn without horror and, sadly, without surprise, that the Quebec government has diverted some 400 million dollars from the James Bay project to bail out the 1976 Olympics. How does that grab you? And that's only a drop in the big bucket with the bigger hole in the bottom. *** Something that rather shook me was the widespread hatred of teachers that emerged when Toronto high school teachers went on strike. 1 don't think the word is too strong. Westfield news briefs' BY MRS. CHARLES SMITH Mr. Warren Gear, Toronto visited on Friday evening with Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Smith and Mr. Gordon McDowell, TODAY'SCHILD' BY HELEN ALLEN THE TORONTO 1IN SYNDICATE Brian is a shy 12 -year-old with brown hair and blue eyes. He is healthy and stockily built, wearing glasses for near-sightedness. His background is French Canadian. Brian is small for his age and below average mentally, so he seems much younger. He gets on well with children either younger or older but is not happy in his own age group because he cannot compete with them. He is in special education and will never be able to handle academic subjects. He will probably need a sheltered workshop setting when he grows up. Meantime Brian is happy, friendly, good-natured and co- operative. He likes to be helpful and is dependable about doing chores. He likes to he outdoors and enjoys camping, swimming and riding his bike. Brian needs a family who will love him for his sweet nature and will be realistic about his limitations. Other children, either older or younger, will be an asset in Brian's adoption home, To inquire about adopting Brian, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community & Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. In your letter tell something of your present family and your way of life. For general adoption information, contact your local Children's Aid Society.

At a time when doctors were noisily demanding more money, teachers were accused, virulent- ly, violently, and viciously, of being "unprofessional" in going ' on strike, The strike was perfectly legal, yet the teachers were called everything but' child -molesters, Letters to the editor ran about 90 per cent against teachers, Columnists and editorial writers made no attempt to be objective, and used warped figures, arrant sentimentality, personal vindic- tiveness and appeals to the emotions to turn the public against teachers. Strange, 1 can understand some of it as pure resentment, I pity the mother whose entire social life is disrupted by a couple of hulking teenagers hanging around the house when they should be in School. I feel for students, heading for higher education, who lost a couple of months. And for the working parents' who have to go out and leave the house at the mercy of that 16 -year-old lump Tying in bed. But I can't quite understand the sheer, naked hatred that emerged. 1 went through school, and 1 didn't then, and don't now, hate any of my teachers, I felt sorry for some of them, We could make Miss Graydon, our French teacher, cry at the drop of a chapeau, Poor Dr, Wheatly, with a'Ph,D, in science, couldn't keep order, But 1 admired some of them, like Old Flem, with whom 1 still communi- cate, and who has challenged me to ski cross-country race, And I alniost,lloved some. Old Mary Walker, who used to strap me three times a week, Laura Walker, my first -grade teacher, gentle, kind, bright. Katie John- ston, who instilled in me a love of literature. Not a sadist or a bully or a sneak among the lot of them. Strange, that hatred, McKillop Mutual dire Insurance Company Established 1876- 3 HEAD OFFICE: Seaforth, Ontario Mrs, Margaret Sharn,, Scc.
