The Blyth Standard, 1976-04-07, Page 1t BLYTH, ONTARIO PRICE: 20 CENTS VOLUME 86 • NO. 14 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 7, 1976. Editorial Church Classified Entertainment Year-end surplus means municipal taxes won't go up in 1976 Good news for Blyth taxpayers was the order at the village council meeting on Monday night. The news came ill the form of the year-end statement for Blyth which showed a net surplus of $11,414 at the end Of 1975. The surplus going into 1975 had been $6,000, Clerk -treasurer Larry Walsh said that the surplus should mean that there will be no increase in municipal taxes this year. Any increase in the budget should be accomodated through the surplus, he said. He also said that although the levy from the county is up a few hundred dollars over last year, the mill rate to cover the county levy will not need to be raised because the increase is offset by an increase in the assessment in the village over last year. The bad news, however, is still to come. The education levy is still not set and the latest word is that it niay be up 35 per cent over last year. Council showed signs that it is going to hold the line on its own spending, however, in several actions Monday night. • It decided, on advice from the Ministry of Transport and Communications, not to Blyth firemen battle a stubborn fire at the home -of Mr.=and Mrs.'Anthony Lourenco, on the dig up and refill • Morris Street from 7th line of Morris township about 5:30 p.m., March 31. The fire, which broke out while Mr. and Mrs. Lourenco were away from home did about $800 damage to the bullding.••staff photo. Rustlers hard to stop Cattle rustling by well -organized modern thieves is a constant and growing problem an Ontario Provincial Police Officer tole members of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture Thursday night in Brussels. Constable John Wray was commenting 011 the theft recently of 23 head of cattle from a Hensall•arca farm. 1-fe said it was very difficult to know what to suggest to cut down on thefts of cattle. It happens more regularly than most people think, he said, though usually in, smaller numbers than the 23 head stolen from Hcnsall. Most often thefts occur in the summer when cattle are out on grass, often at sonic distance from the farm residence. The O.P.P. often gets calls telling of missing animals, usually one or two at a time. These could have wandered away, he said, but in most cases it's hardly likely. Cattle thieves, he said, are pretty smart, not just local kids out to get a little money by stealing a couple of cattle. They are well -organized, well-equipped and know the operation of a farm before they make their move. He suggested farmers make sure they have good fencing, count their cattle as often as possible and make sure their cattle have good identification markings. Most people, he said, can't identify their own cattle and as soon as the cattle are loaded on the truck and off the farm, it's pretty hard to prove they're stolen. The Huron Cattleman's Association meanwhile has offered a reward of up to $1,000 for the return of cattle stolen in Huron county. The 'association also advised cattlemen to padlock loading shutes, be more observant of trucks, cars and especially activity in neighbour's yards at night and use branding, car tags or tattoos to identify cattle, Constable Wray also gave the Brussels meeting information on how the law applies to moving farm vehicles on public roadways. He said farm vehicles are a "real pain in the neck" on the highway because they weren't designed for highway travel. They arc usually too slow, too big and improperly lighted, he said. Farm vehicles are not considered motor vehicles, he said and therefore do not require licences. A change in the law now means that a wagon pulled behind a farm truck doesn't need a trailer licence. he said. Oversized vehicles, either too long or too wide to meet highway regulations require a special permit from the Ministry of Transport and Communications in Toronto, he said. This permit is good all summer and does not cost anything. it allows moving of such equipment anytime but on Sundays, at night or during times of congested traffic. The O.P.P. usually don't go around asking everyone for their licence, he said, but if there was ever an accident involving an oversized load, the farmer had better have a licence or he could be in trouble. Oversized loads at those in access of 65 feet in length or 102 inches in width. When driving farm vehicles on the highway, he said, a farmer is entitled to half the road just as any other driver but he advised that where possible it was an act of courtesy and safety to drive the tractor on the shoulder of the road leaving the highway itself for faster traffic. He explained that drivers of farm vehicles on the road don't have to have a licence but they must be over 16. Police may not check every driver who looks young, he said, but if there was an accident involving an underage driver it would mean a lot of trouble. He told farmers to try to move their equipment only in daylight if possible. If this was not possible, he said that a steady red light should be mounted on the rear of the vehicle, He warned against using the plowing light on the back of a tractor because this confuses other drivers. All farm vehicles should have a slow-moving vehicle sign on them, he 4tressed. Regarding trucks converted to farm use, he said that no one will give a straight answer as to what constitutes a vehicle of husbandry. Generally, he said, if a truck can not be used for anything but farm work it is a vehicle of husbandry and does not require a licence. Highway 25 to Hamilton Street. It was felt that since the road will have to be dug up again with the beginning of sanitary sewer construction it would be a waste of money. Instead the old cold mix surface will be broken up and the road maintained as a gravel road until after the sewers are installed, It was also decided to explore further the possibility of town employees repairing portions of street damaged last year during ' the installation of the storm sewer rather than having a contractor do the yvprli. The MTC engineer felt the cost lbbuld be prohibitive for the small amount of work to be done if a contractor had to be brought in. He thought a cold-niix surface could be installed by town employees for less money. Also present at the meeting was Mrs. Phyllis Street who pointed out the need for a better piano for Memorial Hall. Councillors said they could not see spending such money at the present time. It was reported that the taxi licence granted at last meeting to Mervin Ritchie did not have to be issued since Mr. Ritchie had given up the idea because of lack of'" business. Engineers to inspect Blyth arena for safety Blyth Community Centre Arena will be inspected by engineers in the near future to see if it is up to modern standards. Village council decided to make the move on Monday night. The Ontario Ministry of Labour has been asking for inspections of older arenas and has recently closed several arenas including those in Teeswater, Lucan and Exeter. No action will be taken in Blyth until the engineer's report is received. Council dealt with another odd problem, when they voted to give a refund of taxes for the past 13 years to Mrs. Peter Uyl of Blyth. Mrs. Uyl had purchased her farm on the north east side of town from Clem Galbraith and had been assessed taxes by the assessment office for five lots on Drummond Street as well, She had paid the. tax on the five lots for 13 years thinking they were hers then found when she tried to sell the Tots that they still belonged to Mr. Galbraith, and had not been included in the original purpose. The council voted to refund the taxes of under $100 on the property and bill Mr. Galbraith for the taxes. They refused the request that Mrs. Uyl's legal expenses be paid. Building permits were issued to Bruce Falconer for a house on Gypsy Lane, George Burkholder for renovations and an addition, J.P. Ducharme Homes Ltd. for the senior citizens apartments and Howson and Howson Ltd. for a bulk storage system. A permit to Vernon Bromley to locate a trailer in the village was turned down. On the seniors' apartment project, Clerk -treasurer Larry Walsh said that he had been told last week that work should begin in two weeks. Approval was given for the leasing of land at the back of the municipal offices to Maitland Teleservices for the expansion of its switching building. Earlier the company had sought to purchase the sante land. Council voted to have the clerk send a letter to the Christian Reformed Church asking for more care to be taken by the congregation in the parking of cars at the church so as not to block private driveways. William Manning presented a lengthy report on the activities of the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority in the past year. Centennial committee meets Tuesday Blyth Centennial Committee will hold its next meeting on April 13 at the Memorial Hall meeting room. The chairman of all committees will report on progress made in their areas at that time. Anyone interested in helping out with the work would be welcome to turn out and volunteer their services at that time. New principal appointed William Black will be come the new principal of Blyth Public School. Don Tremeer who has served as principal since the death of former principal Mrs, Margaret Michie will go to Clinton where he will be vice-principal. His old post as vice-principal of Hullett Centrtsl School in Londesboro will be filled by Bill Wilson presently vice-principal at Clinton Public School. PC. 2. THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 7, 1976, Huron Federation unhappy with'Wingham Hospital The Huron County Federation of Agriculture reacted strongly last 'Thursday night to the decision of the Wingham and District Hospital board to back the provincial closing of Clinton Public Hospital. The Federation had been supporting the stand of the county council that all hospitals should prune their budget in order to save Clinton, A brief members. He said he and others taking this stand had been , from the Wingham area had presented to Premier William talked personally to the board Davis earlier. members trying to convince them of the need to co-operate but had had no luck. The members of the The resolution reprimanding the Wingham action was approv- ed after considerable discussion. Past president Doug Fortune said he didn't think that another resolution was going to change the minds of the Wingham board board, he said, believed they had good reasons for fighting any cuts, feeling the quality of their own hospital might be endanger- ed by cuts, Beverley Brown, another Wingham area resident said that though she supported the Feder- ation's demand for county -wide 'sharing of the cutbacks, she felt further action would only raise hard feelings without accomplish- ing anything. "They're dug in" she said of the board members. Despite the protests the resol- uticn carried. The Federation also voted to back the Mutual Dire Aid association in asking that the %1() news tip offered by CKNX radio he dropped in connection with lire reports or at least that reports of fires be held for several hours after the fire. A spokesman told of the trilublc firemen arc having fighting tires when swarms of people arrive after hearing the report of the fire on the radio.

School Board to study reduction of teachers for BY ROSS IIAUGH ,\ recommendation to the Huron Board of Education by director oI' education, .John Cochrane on the Pupil Teacher Ratio for 1976.1977 was .referred to the salary committee on motion of vice-chairman Charles 'Phomas. Thomas said he felt PTR should he given more study. Cochrane's submission said superintendents had examined proposed class-, grade organization in each school and recommended that 313.4 teachers be engaged for grades one to eight. This would be a reduction 'o1' 6.6. teachers from the current term. The employment of 313,4 teachers would generate a PTR of 22 to 1. Thomas said increasing the PTR would be one way of cutting costs during the current restraint program. Cochrane's statement said the elementary school enrolment for the fall term would be down about 303 students. Superintendent Ralph Smith said he has asked all principals not to hire any more teachers. He added, "We. have to decide on' transfers in order to accommo- date the proposed cutbacks.". He was supported by superin- tendent Jim Coulter who indicat- ed he had two teachers in one school in his arca that must be transferred. Cochrane added that all transfers must be made Iv May 1. On the subject of spending restraints, the board decided to meet on Wednesday, April 21 in an attempt to approve the 1976-77 budget. Representatives of all munici- palities in Huron will be invited to attend the budget meeting, Chairman Herb Turkheim sug- gested the mayor or reeve, clerk and finance chairman of each municipality be invited, The trustees decided to prac- tice spending restraints them- selves, Nine indicated they would be attending a Principals and Vice -Principals seminar in Michi- ' gan on May 6, 7 and 8 they agreed to pay their own expenses, Enrolment in Huron secondary schools for the 1976-77 terms is expected to be 4,620 an increase of 63 students from the present attendance, Cochrane's submission sug- gested the number of teachers remain at 273. This would be made up of 13.2 teachers for special education , and 259.8 teachers for other courses, APPROVE FIELD TRIPS Five field trips were approved at Monday's regular meeting of the board. In supporting the field trips, chairman Herb Turkheim said, "most field trip applications were in before our budget restraints. In future. i hope principals will be taking a close look at these trips and they could be cut down considerably." Trustee John Elliott questioned the cost to the board of field trips saying, "the reports show about $600 in costs to the board but they do not include supply teachers:" Director John Cochrane ex- plained, "the costs arc shown under financial arrangements but arc not specified, In the elemen- tary panel supply teacher receive $42 per day under category one and at the secondary level it depends on the salary of the teacher." The Trod trips approved were: The Goderich District Colleg- iate drama club to participate in the Ontario regional drama festival at Guelph from April 8 to 11; a F. E. Madill secondary School board to pay travel for championship teams BY ROSS IIAUGH After considerable discussion, the Huron Board of Education agreed Meriday to pay the expenses of Huron secondary school teams, groups, clubs, bands, etc. who win Huron -Perth honours and advance to WOSSA and provincial competitions. The matter was first discussed when superintendent Jim Coulter asked that principals be permitt- ed to submit accounts for expenses so incuired as averages to the individual school's budget. Budget chairman John Elliott was the first to object saying he felt the budget committee should be involved for extra spending. He continued, "I'm not against their participation but feel it's a platter of principle the budget committee should know how much is being spent." Vice-chairman Charles Thomas suggested $300 could be spent for each trip before approval would be needed from the budget committee. Chairman Herb Turk- heim interjected, "the time element is important here as WOSSA meets are held usually .252252529 within a week of Huron -Perth naming champions." He was supported by South Huron Principal J. L. Wooden who was in attendance. Wooden commented, "Sometimes there is .no time lag at all. Entries must be made to WOSSA the same day you win Huron -Perth." Last year's board chairman Wilfred Shortrecd supported pay- ing any expenses incurred. He added, 'lake the Goderich drama club for instance. They put in a lot of work. It's only fair that we support then) to the top, if we curtail everything our youth arc interested in then we arc in trouble." Superintendent Jim Coulter said expenses in most cases are kept to a minimum. He said it cost only $100 to send the Goderich junior basketball team to Sarnia for two days. Chairman Turkheim said Short - reed echoed the sentiments of all trustees and Charles Thomas moved that support be given with the administration being author- ized to approve expenses.

BLYTH VILLAGE COUNCIL school history trip to Ottawa; a Madill school ski trip to Cold- water; a South Huron District High School geography trip to Kentucky and a Hullett School science, history and language students trip to Toronto, The tender of British Petroleum Oil Ltd. to supply gasoline for buses owned by the Huron County Board of Education was accepted at Monday's regular meeting in Clinton. Chairman Hcrb Turkheim explained that the prices quoted by BP were not the lowest but this was the only company which' agreed to supply extra equipment including tanks, pipes, etc. , Turkheim said when equipment was taken into consideration the BP bid was the lowest. BP who has been supplying the gasoline under a three year contract is willing to continue loan of their) equipment. The current delivered price quoted by BP is 72.02 cents at Brookside, Grey, Howick and 'Purnberry and a discount of 5.08 cents at Stephen and Zurich. Tenders were received for the sale of eight surplus used school buses. Transportation manager R. L. Cunningham was instructed to accept all bids except those which were less than $500, TO INSPECT CLOSED SCHOOL As the result of a request to purchase or rent a closed school building in Ashfield township, the Huron Board agreed to have the management committee bring in a report on the condition of the building. Exeter trustee Clarence McDonald suggested that if the school is to be disposed of it should be offered to the township. Director John Cochrane said it takes about a year to go about selling a closed school and the local municipality is on the list of groups which have first chance at purchase. Cochrane added, "If a school is for sale you must assure the Ministry of Education that a replacement is not needed for 10 years," Goderich trustee Dorothy Wall- ace commented, "It would be foolish to dispose of this building with a lot of expected growth in the area." As the result of a resolution from the town of Goderich, the Ward agreed to delegate to each principal the responsibility of students participating in Arbour Day cleanup in a municipality. Goderich asked that the last Friday in April be designated as Arbour Day but director Cochrane said the day in question was Professional Development Day and the town will be asked to change the date. NEW COURSE AT WiNGHAM The board approved a request from F. E. Madill secondary school principal R. P. Ritter to 1 next year introduce a new course ol'study in anthropcilogy commencing in September, 1976. ,Superintendent Don Kenwell said the anthropology course would replace an ancient history course now taught at the school. He said 46 students had shown interest in anthropology. INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC AT CLINTON Instrumental music will be offered at Central Huron Secon- dary School in Clinton during the 1976-77 term, The board agreed to offer the course. Superintendent Ralph Smith said parents of 23 students had agreed to pay the rental costs of instruments. Director John Coch- rane said board policy stipulates a minimum of 25 students must register initially to have the course offered. After considerable discussion,- trustee iscussion;trustee John Elliott proposed that the policy be amended to allow the courses to get off the ground. He said his son had since registered to bring the total to 24 and was sure others would join as students only had three days to make up their minds.

Box 10, Blyth, Ontario, Telephone 523.9646. Double standard Just about any day you want to listen, you can hear some American, often a government official, lecturing Canadians an their childishness. The speeches all tell Canadians that we are behaving like little children in our economic and cultural nationalism. Borders, we are told, don't mean anything in the modern world. We should be willing to share our oil, to let American companies come in and take over all our industry and take the money back home, and continually pipe their brand of culture at us through television, radio, books, magazines and movies, That's what they say. What they do when the shoe is on the other foot, however, is something else. So again we had the case last week of the President of the United States, no less, telling baseball officials that they'd better put a baseball team in the nation's capital before they do something unpatriotic like putting one in Toronto. Toronto got kicked in the teeth again just as a couple of months ago, government and the courts were brought in to prevent the San Franctson Giants from being moved to Canada. Washington has already been the graveyard of two baseball teams, and if it gets another weak expansion franchise it will likely be the graveyard of a third. San Franciso didn't support its ball team but suddenly when the greener pastures of Toronto beckoned, it became a national emergency to save the Giants. If Canadian government had interfered the way the American government has, we'd have been getting a stern warning from Washington. As usual however, there hasn't been a whimper from our government. Stand up for right Canada over many years of work through the United Nations, has earned a reputation of dignity. Right now that reputation is on the line and must be defended. Canada has been working hard of late to build new friendships in Latin American. One of the warmest friendships, and the most profitable has been with Cuba. This friendship has opened new doors for Canadian exports and has helped build understanding between a democracy and a Communist dictatorship. It would be a shame to see • the friendship die. But Canada can not sit idley by forever and condone the growing Cuban interference in the affairs of Africa. First, the Cubans got their fingers in the pie in Angola and now they're looking toward Rhodesia and other unstable states. By not speaking out against such intrusions, Canada is guilty of complicity. It's easy to argue that we supported the Americans over the years in similar escapades but what's past is past. But we also spoke out to the chaerin of the Americans at various times. We can't go along forever being nice friends who won't say a word no matter how bad our friends behave. It's also hard to support countries like Rhodesia against Cuba. Rhodesia is a state that needs a revolution, preferably quiet but otherwise if all else fails. Canada, and all other white western nations should be doing everything they can to change the course of history in Rhodesia and South Africa before the blacks of those nations feel so frustrated they're willing to risk their lives in revolt., We must, if we are to gain any respect in the world, stand up for what's right, not just do what's easiest. Stop it quick The secondary school teachers of Windsor are beginning another assault on sanity in the educational system in Ontario as they strike for yet another big wage increase. You may remember that it was the teachers of Windsor who set off the current round of inflation in the school system a year or more ago when they won a whopping 30 per cent wage increase. They set the trend that swept across the province. How could any board hope to stand up for responsibility when the Windsor teachers had already won a big increase? Few, of course, did. Huron teachers got a 29 per cent increase. It meant a big tax hike for all taxpayers this year while the quality of education was actually suffering because of cutbacks in every area but teachers pay. The trend swept finally into Toronto, there the ttgnt was long and bitter. The public mood had changed by the time the Toronto teachers came to seek the same kinds of increases that had been given elsewhere in the province. A new mood of restraint was in the air. The government had imposed wage and price controls and though there was much bitching, most people were behind them. The harm done in the Toronto showdown may never really be repaired. But now down in Windsor they're trying to start all over again. The teachers there want a 14 per cent increase this year. Few would deny that teachers deserve a good salary. They don't, however, deserve a ridiculous salary, and that's what many seem to want, At the same time many are willing to reduce the professionalism they have shown in the past. Let's hope, 'for the sake of education and the taxpaydr that sanity prevails in Windsor.' Church Window• Discussion continues on hospital closings. BY MURRAY GAUNT Discussion still continues about hospital closings in the Province, and the Acting Minister of Health has indicated that four of the nine Ontario hospitals given orders•to close will remain open for an indefinite period while the Health Ministry studies other possible uses for the institutions and other ways to cut costs. The four - Doctors Hospital in Toronto and public hospitals in Clinton, Dur- ham and Paris • have appealed the orders to close. There is, apparently, no chance that the remaining hospitals scheduled to close will be reprieved, and the Minister told the Legilature.that the Government has not ,altered any decisions but is simply keeping an open mind while studying briefs which have been presented. Even if some of the hospitals being closed are put to other uses, the Government still hopes to save close to $45 million. The Acting Minister of Health also told the Legislature that the entire population of Ontario will be inoculated against swine flu if the Provincial Government can obtain enough vaccine. If suffic- ient vaccine is not available, those at highest risk will be vaccinated. The Minister said the province hopes to use health units throughout Ontario to carry out the vaccination programme to eliminate any charge for the procedure, although no decision has yet been made about whether there will be a charge for the vaccine itself. Former Ontario Liberal Leader Robert Nixon, speaking in the Throne Debate, referred to a government pledge to take action on the problem of alcohol abuse by teenagers, and called for a ban on all liquor and beer advertising in the Province, Mr. Nixon said that MPPs will be "seriously irresponsible and derelict in our duty" if they permit this kind of advertising to continue either on radio or television, or in the print media. He said "there's no reason for us to permit this kind of insidious pressure on young people, particularly (when it) simply identifies the use,of beer • much more than anything else - with the good life". The Ontario Housing Action Programme, aimed at bringing serviced land and new housing on the market as soon as possible, will be continued for at (east a year beyond the planned April 1 termination date, Housing Minis- ter John Rhodes said this week.

The facility was previously operated by Essex Packers until that company got into financial difficulty last fall. It has since been operated by the receiver for that company until the Govern- ment indicated on March 18 they were assigning the operation to Guelph Beef Centre Ltd., a company of the De Jonge Group. Mr, Riddell stated that better offers were turned down by the Government, including one where the farmers would have been paid 100 cents on the dollar as opposed to the 15 cents being offered by ' the De Jonge Group, Letter to the editor Hydro says thanks for help in storm An Open Letter to the Electrical Trade: I would like to, on behalf of Hydro in Western Ontario, express the appreciation of Ontario Hydro and the Municipal Utilities' staff, for the co-opera- tion received from manufactur- ers, distributors, and contractors during the recent ice storm. While Hydro people were busy repairing damage to their sys- tems, contractors were simul-, taneously repairing customers' damaged equipment. ' As a result of . everybody's efforts, the duration of customer outages, while extreme In many cases, were kept to a minimum. We are all sincerely appreciative of the customers' understanding of our respective problems during this' emergency situation. Contractors worked long hours in difficult conditions, suppliers kept their operations open at all hours, and manufacturers ran special production runs, all aimed at getting the customer back on the line, It was a tremendous effort.

BY BILL SMILEY Dog end of winter. March usually has a tail in it like a tiger, and then we're into the mud and chill winds and rain of April. Probably the worst time of the year for Canadians. Curling season is over and golf season hasn't begun. Its too early for gardening and too late for skiing. There's nothing much for the sport fan to be but the weeks of blah that constitute the professional hockey playoffs. 1 think it's a particularly bad time for the elderly. The days are longer but the weather is too deadly to enjoy the outdoors yet. They've come through another long dark winter of survival, arthritis, the flu, being indoors most of the time. In a few weeks they'll be grinning triumphantly as the sun begins to warm, and they know they've licked life (or death) for one more winter, but right now they're a little low in spirits. One of the most obnoxious features of this time of year is the return from the south of those lazy, rich, rotten, selfish people who have enough money to spend the winter there. Is there anything more boring than their excessive chatter about playing golf every day, and swimming in Bill doesn't like the tail end of winter January? Don't think I'm envious. wouldn't go down south in the winter if you _ offered me a thousand dollars, But don't make it $1,200. Nor am I the slightest bit jealous of those young, swinging teachers, back from their March break in Spain or the Caribbean, as smug as they are tanned. Talk to them and you'll find all they did was sit around at a beach, drinking rum, or taking in some historical sites, Any idiot can do better than that, being herded like so many Canadian cattle on to a jet plane, into aposh hotel. My wife and I almost invariably go south in the March break. But we don't sit around on any silly beach, getting a painful burn. We go to the city, and get a slow burn from the prices in the hotel. Neither of us drinks rum. But if we want to take in some historical sights, we just take a look at each other. About the only people who aren't a bit down in the mouth as winter drags to its weary end are little kids. There is mud to play in; deep puddles to test your boots in; dirty remnants of snow to push each other down into. What more could a kid want? Their mothers are not quite so joyous about now. The occasion- al sun reveals dirty windows, shabby wallpaper, faded drapes. When they go out, their winter :lothes are too heavy for shoDpine Safety tips for weekend gardeners Yes • Spring is finally here! And those of you who possess "green thumbs" (and even those of you who don't) will soon be spending much of your spare time in the garden deciding where you're going to plant the petunias and making sure your lawn and hedges look respectable. When you do, remember that a garden like any other work arca - has the potential for serious injury. That's why St. John Ambulance is suggesting these guidelines for gardening safety: . *Keep your work arca clean and tidy. *Don't use electrical appliances in a wet or damp area. *Store your power garden tools in a high and dry place. *Never force a tool to work faster than the speed for which it was designed or do a job other than the one it was intended for. *Don't carry an appliance by the cord, and never yank the cord when removing it from a receptacle: grasp the plug, not the wire. Keep the cord away from sharp edges, oil and heat. I *Keep your appliances sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Disconnect an appliance before servicing, changing accessories, or lubricat- ing. Follow the manufacturer's directions for servicing the appliance. *Don't wear loose clothing or jewellry when operating power tools. Never operate a lawn mower in bare feet. *Keep proper footing and balance at all times • don't overreach. *Keep children a safe distance away from your work arca. *Rake the lawn before operating a lawn mower to remove any objects hidden in the grass. Such objects could seriously injure someone if they should fly out of CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY Take good care of yourself. the machine. *Use equipment with the stamp of approval of the Canadian Standards Association. A "green thumb" is rather nice to have • especially when it remains connected to your hand. Take a trip from St. John Ambulance and play it safe this Spring when you do your weekend gardening. in the hot stores, but the weather is too foul to try on the new spring outfit. Result? Winter -end snarl, Mani pf the house isn't exactly bubbling over, either, He's just added up the fuel bill, which is roughly twice what it was six years ago, He has received this year's tax notice, which is just about twice what it was 10 years ago. And he's heading right into income tax time, which is just about twice as complicated as it was any years ago. No joy there at all. University students are scarce- ly rapturous at this time of year. The year that looked so long last September suddenly has a week or two to go. There are essays due. There are final exams ahead. There is anguish in the highsight of days and weeks of near -idle- ness during the past two terms. There is panic at the realization of the minuscule amount of learning actually acquired. The mind. skitters like a frightened mouse, but there is no hole in the wainscoting to dodge into. It's time for the hot coffee, the benzedrine, and prayer, none of which will help much. For students graduating this spring, it's not exactly Christmas either. After three or four years in Inc cocoon, they must come out and discover whether they are caterpillars or butterflies. There arc no lines of employers eager to sign them up. There'll be no more cheques from Dad. There's nothing there but a vast, indifferent system into which they must kick and squirm and claw to BROWN'S ire Rep WI For on th a R.R. #2, Blyt BE IN OPE SHORTL the ro ATION rm and d service Phone 887.6788 make a niche for themselves. Does all this sound depressing? Heck, no. It's just the way of life in this country of ours, this time of year.

Young preg- nants looking forward to their first baby. Ancient gardeners already out kicking aside the lumps nI' mud and ice, looking for crocuses, scarcely able to wait to get their hands into the soil. Golfers who have mentally inured out their swings during the winter, Sailors who watch eagerly for the breaking up of the life.

It is because we live supposedly in a free country in which every .person should be able to do as he pleases. Take seat belts, for instance. A government is good only when it does what pleases the voters, but if the government docs something that'displeases voters, then watch out, In this case such insistence on net wearing scat belts is a good example of old-fashioned individualism. And the many people who have no regards for others insist on their rights to resist this legislation and let others pay the Couple celebrate 50th anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Russell MacDon- ald of Blyth celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on March 17 with a dinner at the Legion Hall. Their family and 13 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren were present. Friends, neighbours and rela- tives gathered in the Blyth Memorial Hall on Friday evening, March 19 for a social evening. The evening was spent playing cards and visiting, after which lunch was served by the family! The couple was married at the home of her sister, Amanda, on March 17, 1926. They were married by Rev. Barnby. Mrs. MacDonald was the former Mac Watson, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. David Watson, of Hullctt Township. Mr. MacDon• ald's parents were the late Mr. and Mrs. Donald MacDonald of Langsidc. After their marriage they resided on the groom's farm at Langside for a year before moving to Hullett Township, where they resided until they moved to their present home in 1973. a sin Sunshine Unit meets The regular meeting of the Sunshine Unit was held .Tuesday afternoon, April t,, at 2 p.m. in medical costs of accidents, the church parlour, with Mrs. Now, God also says something about what is right and true.

And to make sure that there would always be people who cared for others in the name of Jesus Christ, this son of God died the monstrous death of the cross, hanging between heaven and earth, forsaken by God for a short time. It is a biblical truth that all people who do not listen to God should undergo for ever that forsakenness, the emptiness and darkness which is the worst that can happen to anybody. But not all people die in that forsakenness for Jesus claimed some for himself, 111 the Bible God describes the people who have no faith in Jesus, They are the people who borrow and do not pay back; they are overbearing, pushy, insisting on their own way (Ps 37); they are the parents who take no responsibility for their children, or they are the employers who pay niggardly wages (James 5, 1.16). The lists in the Bible go on and on to describe in every detail such people. , But what is most in the Bible is the way that God deals with people, and how the people for whom Jesus dies not only want to listen to him, also how they listen to him. Over and over, they are the people who listen to God,•because Jesus died for them, to what he says is good and right for every part of life: how to love a husband or wife, how to raisc a family, how to respect a government, even though that government does things wrong sometimes, how to treat employees, and how employees should treat their employers. Again, nothing is left underscribed about the people for whom Jesus came into the world. And the beauty of Good Friday is seen today in the people who listen to God, because in Jesus' death on the cross they are changed. These people are faithful upholders of God's law, they are generous and give, they speak justice and wisdom, they arc people of peace. Yes, Good Friday is really a good day. It is the day in which to remember and experience the goodness of God. Communion held at Blyth United i A large crowd attended the Communion service in Blyth United Church on Sunday April 4, 1976.

Our daughter and son-in-law wanted to take us there fur our wedding anniver- sary, but Harry was too far along in his terminal illness to make the trip. When they returned. they brought Harry a beautiful brown and white aloha shirt and pair of white slacks. He was so proud of Widow worried about husband's attire that outfit. When Harry knew he was dying he said to our son-in-law, "It's a shame I will 'never be able to vicar that great getup you brought me from 1-lawaii." I decided Harry should have his wish. I asked the funeral director if it would be all right to bury my husband in the aloha shirt and the white slacks. He said, "Of course, if that's what you want to A few days after the funeral, I heard some criticism about it. It bothered me terribly and it still docs. I wake up at night and wonder why I didn't bury Harry in a dignified dark blue suit with a Mike shirt and striped tic. It seems insane now to worry about such a thing, but sl (lo.

Housing, Health, Energy, Books at the Lib THE COLD WAR SWAP BY ROSS THOMAS: From a rather complex past Mac, our hero, had managed to establish himself in a simple uncomplicated present. But from the day Mike Padillo walked into Mac's Place in West Germany everything changed. A customer was assassinated in the bar; the business partner turned out to be a spy; in fact Mac's whole world seemed more likely to end with a bang than with a whimper. This exciting novel of espionage is written with ingenuity and steadily mounting suspense that leads to a chilling climax. KEYS TO LOVE BY DOROTHY BRENNER.

The story of life in an insane asylum won an Oscar for its ,director, Milos Forman, a young Czechoslovakian who won the honors for only his second American film, the production was also named best picture, won an award for screenplay from another medium and for the* first time sine 1934, the best adtor and Dies at age 77 WESLEY RATH Wesley Rath, aged 77 years, passed away March 24, 1976. Beloved husband of Marie, dear father of Bill, Grand Bend; (Ida) Mrs. Oscar Hill; (Vera) Mrs. Danny McKenzie, all of Harrow; 10 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren; brother of Clar• once of Belgravc; (Verna) Mrs. Fred Bailey of London. Mr. Rath rested in the Gerald A. Smith Funeral Home, Harrow, The funeral took place on Friday, March 26, 1976 at 2 p.m. with Rev. D.S. Mannell officiat- ing, with interment in Colchester Memorial Cemetery, Colchester. No injuries in accidents During the week March 29 to April 4, Ontario Provincial Police officers at Wingham detachment conducted 22 investigations. Thirty-seven charges were laid under the highway traffic act and 58 warnings were issued. 15 attend Bible Study group The Community Prayer and Bibe Study group met on Tuesday last in the Christian Education building of the Christian Re- formed church with 15 ladies present.

It was a role the late Jack Benny had been booked to play and when he died, his pal George Burns was asked to fill his shoes. A bittersweet win for Burns. Best supporting actress was Lee Grant in Warren Beatty's picture, "Shampoo". Another emotional moment came when the cameras visited I'ickl•air, the luxurious home of former Canadian, Mary Pickford. A frail 83 now, she received a special award, to add to the one she received in 1929, two years at Oscars after Oscar was born. A tearful thank -you said it all for Mary; had she been able to attend the ceremonies, the ovation may still have been continuing. Canada rcccived another hon- or, with the winning of an Oscar for its documentary, "The Man Who Skiied Down Everest." "Barry Lyndon" took four awards, for art direction and set decoration, costume design, mus- ic adaptation and cinematograp- hy. "Jaws" was recognized for sound, music score and film Iliting, A special Oscar, for isual and sound effects was .I ,n•ded to "The Hindenburg", Ili, disaster film of 1975. Keith Carradine won the Oscar tor best song, his own "1'in Easy" from "Nashville". He is part of the famous family; actor John is Daddy and brother David is a television star. Dr. Jules Stein won the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award and producer Mervyn LeRoy received the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award. "Dog Day Afternoon", which received se- veral nominations, won only one for original screenplay. Russia's "Dersu Uzala" was named the best foreign film, There was not really much excitement in the -two and a half hour proceedings. The small breath of fresh air that was provided came from Goldie Hawn SNELL'S GROCERY CATCII'UP who is brilliant enough to play the dumb blonde to perfection, The most beautiful cup of tea at the whole shebang was a gal you saw only five seconds, if that. Jill Ireland, or Mrs. Charles Bronson if you like, was a sparkling dream. That beautiful couple probably represented the most wealth; he is now making more than one million a picture. It was great to see Audrey Hepburn back, still looking like a little pixie and Jacqueline Bisset looked a little like something out of a picture book, resplendent in shimmering silver and shaking like an aspen leaf. Award for look -the most natural and down- to•earth would have to go to the new little gal who played the part of skier Jill Kinmont in "The Other Side of the Mountain", Marilyn Hassett. Margaux Hem- ingway looked like she had been playing with Mummy's makeup. Elizabeth Taylor looked like she could afford to pass up a meal or two and, even after introducing "America the Beautiful", had problems remembering the ly- rics! Linda Blair is a little bundle of enthusiasm and personality • a charmer to be sure • and when it cones to entertaining, can you really beat the little Broadway dancer; Bernadette Peters? "How Lucky Can You Get", finding her to sing a song like that???!

Premier William Davis announced the study January 21, at the same time he appointed Jones as the man responsible for the Ontario Youth Secretariat.

Jones, who has already visited some communities, said he has firm commitments to visit 15, more and expects the total to reach 20. Most of the arrange- ments are being made by local people rather than experts and professionals from Toronto, he said. "Every attempt is made to keep the meetings as informal as possible and make sure we reach the young people," said Jones who is accompanied on his visits by an official of the Ontario Addiction Research Foundation. The usual format is a panel discussion in the local high schools that includes young people with good and bad experiences with alcohol and a public open forum in the evening.• "We make it clear to the young people that we arc there to listen and we are not putting then on," said Jones. "As a result we are hearing some pretty startling things and they are making surprising suggestions for solu- tions." Jones said young people are deeply concerned with what is happening around them and many come to him after a session to make further points. "They _tell me they are particularly pleased that the Government is coming to them.to get their views on any possible legislation that could effect them," said Jones. "They feel they are participating."
