PC. 19. Blyth Fire Department had a busy time Friday night and early Saturday morning as they battled two fires in a space of under nine hours. Prompt action held damage to under 53.000 in the two fires. The first call was just after 9 p.m. on j Friday when neighbours of Mr. and Mrs. • Ross Dacr noticed sparks coining from a lire at the corner of the Daer barn. The Dacrs were notified and the fire department called. The barn was full of market hogs and by the time firemen arrived the lire had spread to a wall above the hogs, The department, however was able to quickly bring the fire under control before extensive danutge could be done. Damage was estimated by Chief Irvine Bowes at less than $1000. Cause of the fire, he said, was a faulty electrical cable. It was an early morning on Saturday as firemen answered a call to the home of Mr. and Mrs. David Lee on Drummond Street. The Lee's, who were in the process of remodelling the home, awoke about 5:30 a.ni. to find the house full of smoke. Mr, Lee got his wife and child out of the house and called .i.,.

Two cheques were presented to the Foundation at its annual meeting held at the Maitland Valley ,Conservation Authority head- quarters in Wroxeter on April 8th, 1976. They represent the first major donations to the Foundation which held its inaugural meeting on May 7, 1975 and will be directed towards the purchasing of ecologically significant proper- ties within the water shed. Mr. tan Deslauricrs, Resources Manager for the Authority outlined on a map, for the members, the Saratoga Swamp arca in West Wawanosh Town- ship and explained why it is the area of highest priority for property acquisition. The preser- vation of swampland is crucial to good water management, as well as to the healthy survival of many forms of wildlife he said. He added that as swamps have been drained and cleared flooding problems in the watershed have grown more serious and the wildlife resources have been placed under greater and greater pressure. The 4,000 acre Saratoga Swamp is a haven for a wide variety of wildlife. As well it contains areas of forest which have never been logged over. are extreme) Such areas Y rare in rural Ontario. Anyone who, through their donation, helps to preserve this and other similar areas would be doing mankind a great service. The Maitland Conservative Foundation is a registered charit- able organization dedicated to the preservation of the natural environment.

Box 10, Blyth, Ontario. Telephone 523.9646.' Laws are for all of us to obey There was an amusing story on the news the other day, one of those human -interest things that brighten newscasts. The story dealt with a lady in New Jersey who headed the list of the local police department's 10 most wanted parking violators. Seems she owed the city more than $300 in parking tickets run up at one time or another by the three cars she and her husband drove. • The lady was indignant and about the status she had earned from the police. Why, she wondered, weren't the police out doing their business catching "real" criminals like dope fiends and thieves instead of hounding people like her. The lady was perhaps exceptional, but unfortunately she's an example of a growing trend in our society. So many people seem to give grades to crime so that parking violations are little things while break-ins arc terrible; rapes are horrid but tax evation relatively innocent. So many of us these days break the rules and comfort ourselves that that particular rule isn't all that important. But if any one law isn't important, where do we draw the line? Could it be that part of the problem of growing crime we're seeing today in North America isn't due to television violence or lack of capitol punishment but the disrespect for laws that has been taught by example to the younger generations? White collar cringe doesn't get the publicity that violent crime docs but it is growing just as fast. People pilfer from their company, cheat on their income tax, embessel their share holders and somehow pass it all off as just a bit of lark. But aren't they just as guilty as the slum kid who knocks someone over the head and steals his wallet? And aren't you, as you whiz down the_ highway in your car doing 75 mph in a 50 mile zone teaching your child that breaking the law doesn't count as long as you don't get caught? Even our police encourage disrespect for the laws they should uphold. When was the last time you saw a police car on an area highway that wasn't travelling above the legal speed limit? Like so many things it's so a sy to point the finger at the other guy. The problem is that the prol{em starts with ourselves, the fat and happy middle class. Housing crisis could be a solution, not problem One of the strongest demands heard of politicians these days is that they should do something about the housing crisis that's plaguing the big cities. It's strange, of course that when problems hit small towns and farms, city people, and particularly city media people, shrug their snoulders and say it's too bad but that's the way the cookie crumbles. When problems hit the city, however, there's not talk of letting nature take its course, but simple of taking drastic action to change things. But there is a good case for the need not to take action to solve the housing crisis that has driven the cost of the average house in Toronto over the $50,000 mark and many over the $100,000 figure. Government in the past has been unwilling or unable to try to decentralize growth in this country, even though admitting the need for more balanced growth throughout the country rather than in a few large cities. What the government has failed to do, economics will achieve if left alone. The law of supply and demand will drive housing prices in big cities to the point that people will look elsewhere to find jobs. Companies will move their factories and offices to smaller centres because the cost of living is smaller and therefore the galaries needed by employees need not be so high. Eventually the whole move to a few huge cities, which began at the turn of the century will be, if not reversed, at least checked. Already we can see the trend happening with the number of city people who have moved into this part of the country in the past five years. We also hear much of the need to preserve the good farmland that most cities arc built on from further destruction from urban sprawl, but hut the high housing costs of the cities can help achieve this. High housing costs mean fewer houses will he needed in those big cities meaning less farmland will be wasted. Given proper planning, this growth can be rechannelled into urban centres 'that are not in major farming areas. Certainly the housing crisis means hard times for many people who live in the big cities, just as the exodus from small towns to big cities meant hard times for many businessmen and others in small towns over the past years, Left to take its course, without meddling by politicians, however, this "crisis': may be one of the best things to away from germs, he misused Abandoned house Photo by Sandy MacDonald Hughes' strange tale proves money, power don't mean happiness BY KEITH ROULSTON The legend has withered away. Howard Hughes, mysterious billionaire died a few days ago on the way from one of his hideaways to a hospital in a vain attempt to save his life. He was a larger than life figure who few people ever saw in recent years, and some doubted existed. Now even in death the mystery goes on as to how the man lived and why he lived that way, It's a fascinating tale as patched together by writers like those of Time magazine last week, the tale of a man who is in some ways a symbol of our times. He started with a company founded by his father that was worth $750,000 when he took over in 1924 at age 18. He ended with a complex conglomerate of com- panies worth somewhere over $2 billion. Along the way he went from a glamour boy pilot who set world speed records in the 1930's to a movie producer who dated all the top starlets in the 1940's and early 1950.'s and on to an increasingly withdrawn, secre- tive, sick man who locked himself away in darkened hotel rooms. He was a man obsessed with power but who made little advantage of it. He had more money than most people could imagine in their wildest dreams, yet it bought him little. He sat in his darkened room running his empire with no one but a few chosen aides allowed to go near him for fear they might infect him with germs. He trusted no one. He had no friends. He used people and threw them away when he was finished with them, In a materialist society everything to him was possession. Yet curiously, for a . man possessed with possession and with power, he misused the one thing that was his most precious I possession and the one thing that allowed him to continue his power: his own body. Though obsessed with keeping himself happen in Canada in many a year, himself in so many other ways. Apparently he spent most of his time sitting in a straight backed chair, clad only in pyjamas, unaware of time or date except when he was watching .television. Even his aides were separated from him by a glass partition and he passed instructions to them by notes. He would work and read for days on end without sleeping then collapse into a sleep that was almost a state of conga. His diet consisted of sweets such as fudge and cakes. By 1968 he had wasted himself away to a weight of under 100 pounds and developed chronic anemia. Though one of the worlds two or three .richest men, he suffered the disease of the poor: malnutrition. By the time he died he weighed about 90 pounds. A Mexican doctor who examined him said he was so badly cared for an had so many bed sores that he'd never seen the Iikc, even among his poorest patients. All this for a man who had everything as far as money went. He was like so many people in our world today who, though not as extreme, are just as sick. These people think the answer to unhappiness is possessions, the more possessions, -the more happiness. They find out too late the holloweness of their quest. How many people, suffering in bitter poverty actually lived happier and more meaningful lives than Howard Hughes? Probably about as many people as Hughes had dollars. aerial . floating submerged Marsh World 1)uuks linlil iced ((•,lthl(i,l) HETEROPHYLLY — Numerous aquatic plants bear two or more leaf forms, depending on aquatic environmental conditions.

It was written for' International Women's Year, 1975, but last year's liberated woman is no less liberated in 1976 so the ideas in "Straitjackets" still ring loud and clear! It is a story of the restricting roles of man and woman • poking fun at all the people and circumstances that have divided the sexes and made them something they never really wanted to be. It follows the life'of boy and girl from the time they are small and little girls are taught to play with dolls and little boys are meant to be tough. The days of the Dick and Jane readers, which segregate the h little boys from the little girls - Dick can run and jump but all Jane can do is sit. Boys who hung around home a lot were called sissies and girls who enjoyed a lively game of baseball now and then were tomboys and it was all against nature, or so everyone thought. As if the home wasn't enough influence on the feeble minds of us all, the brain -washing continu- ed into society - where playboys like Hugh Hefner could exploit womanhood and get away with it (after all, she was only a toy, all she could do was sit) and products were designed to increase ser appeal. Society dictated that yoi use a shampoo that made you hair smell sexy, you cleaned you! teeth with a toothpaste that gave you sex appeal and, ,according tc the lyrics of one of 15 songs in the play, you could even be brain- washed into using drainwash as a mouthwash, if you thought it gave you a sexy smelling breath! The musical revue was written by two London gals; Kem Murch and Erna Van Daelc, Directed by Dean Regan, it starred three women and three men, dressed completely in black with white face makeup and fluorescent gloves and collars, symbolic of the masks which hide the true people who fight for an identity in our mixed-up world. The play was always amusing and entertaining, 'which is not always true of the real-life dramatizations. Pretend- ing to be something you do not want to be very often leads to a sense that you really don't belong anywhere. The closing song ended with the joyful words, "Good-bye, Adam! Good-bye, Evel Hello, Mel" and left members of the audience with the urge and will to get out of the shell and be themselves, liberating themsel• 'ves from the mold which the world had built for them. "Straitjackets" first was per- formed last spring at the University of Western Ontario. It was considered such aucc ss that a tour was arranged for Western Ontario between March 30 and April 9. Blyth Memorial Hall was the only performance in this area, 000 The star comedienne is a rare treat these days - many things fitting for a lady to say are no longer consideredfunny. It wasn't so in the days gone by. And when a funny woman like Martha Raye travelled overseas to entertain the boys on the battlefronts, all she had to do was be herself. From the time she faked a trip to land very unladylike on centrestage, she kept the boys laughing, when there wasn't too much to laugh at. Last week, the American Legion presented her with its humanitarian award for her great contribution to the morale of the servicemen in the Second World War, Korean War and Viet Nam War. There can never be enough things said about the stars who travelled to battle zones to bring some cheer to lonely servicemen. Bob Hope you've heard about but many, many have gone that you do not hear about. It is good to see one recognized for her service, in bringing one ray of light to extremely dark days.

PCI.*Phone 52* -9081 From theMinister's Study BY REV. TED HOOGSTEEN BLYTII CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH The guest editorial .entitled 'An Easter Message' in last week's Standard is nn cyebrow•raiser, If the Christian Church no longer proclaims that Easter hope, then things have gene far afield. There arc three things essential to Christianity, and they are faith, hope, and love, To compare this with a tulip, for instance, then faith is the bulb, hope is the stem, and faith is the flower. All three are necessary. And when hope is eliminated, the Christian message is nothing. Of course, there is a lot of hope drifting in the winds, It shows up in discussions about problems, We can take alcoholism for an example. Somehow, somewhere, there is the hope that drunkenness will not get worse as a social and individual evil, but this hope has really no ground, There seems to be a trust in the goodness of mankind to come up with an answer, but always the problem gets worse instead of better. This unfounded hope raises some sort of good feeling, but is never made explicit, in the sense that it is never explained where this hope comes from and on what it is based and what it is supposed to do. Apart from this type of senseless hope, there arc people who work with their concept of hope. Marxism is a good illustration, for communists have a hope they can produce a perfect society in this world by armed rebellion and insinuous infiltration, so that all people will work for a common goal• the state, But after fifty years they've hardly even laid a groundwork for a perfect state, and their utopia will always be a pipe dream, In Canada (and what is called the free world) capitalism or free enterprise seems to be the basis of hope. As soon as all people, instead of working for the state, work for themselves and have enough money, they will be happy. Both communism and capitalism seem the answer to all selfishness, hatred, violence, cruelty, and indifference, except that wherever these life systems operate the problems become worse. Now, Christ died to overcome that selfishness, hatred, violence, cruelty, and indifference. His death reveals continually stark reality in human life. Human life is so desperate that the Son of God had to be crucified in order to bring faith, hope, and love. Because Christ died on the cross and was raised up from the dead there is Christian hope. Christian hope is founded in Jesus Christ. It has a sure foundation, and it has a specific aim. The foundation is Jesus himself, and the aim is the new heavens and the new earth, in which there will be no sorrow, no cruelty, nor any of the other stark realities mentioned above. The new reality is that God is making a new world out of this old one, and the Christian Church, or if you will, God's community, is the beginning of that tremendous new thing God is making. Easter says that God is making new men and women,' all who believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and they may live .from day to day with the hope and conviction to see the newness of God's work. Christ died to overcome selfishness, cruelty, indifference, violence, and the result of that conquest can be seen, be that sonietimes in small measure, in the Christian Church. •These things, as, which we shudder, cruelty, indifference, violence, hatred, and the like, arc the cause of Jesus death, or the purpose for his coming into the world, that he may take them away. Only Christ died that death, and all who believe in him died with him, and with him they were raised up to the new life of faith in Christ Jesus. Undoubtedly, the message of the Christian Church is one of hope, of overcoming in Jesus all the things that make life hard, so that first of all God's community, and in retrospect, all who deny Christ, may see that it is in the Church were hope is grounded and sure. And it is only in the Church that hope which goes places •and changes people is proclaimed.

Letter to the editor DEAR EDITOR: Sorry to be so tardy in renewing our subscription, we are not usually this Tate, but for some reason it was put off. We have been subscribers for 40 years and more, and do not want to spoil the continuity.' We always look forward to the weekly news from home, as we still refer to it, even if we have been away for Heart{' 25 years; and even tho' the people we know personally arc becoming fewer and fewer, I enjoy reading your editorials and believe they serve a real purpose even tho' I sometimes find myself in disagreement with some of them. We have been interested in each issue we have received of the Village Squire. I find the articles interesting and quite instructive. We arc delighted to know that the Memorial Hall is almost completely refurbished, and will again, be the local point in the village. They seem able to bring in some very local entertainment.

For further information concerning any of the following topics please write to the office at Box 5, Wroxeter or phone 335-3557, The month of March found all staff members well occupied with a large number of projects in progress. A considerable amount of time was taken up in organizing r:ng the summer student employment program (formerly Sweep) which will once again be carried out by the Authority. This year the name of this provincially funded program will be known as :> Experience 76' (Program 130). Due to large budget cuts in all Gov't Ministries, the program will not be able to operate on as large a scale as in the past. Additional students will be hired. However, the length of employ- ment will be shortened to seven from 10 weeks for labourers and to 14 from 16 weeks for the technical staff. A total of 32 people will be hired by the Authority under the program including a technical staff of four. Projects to be undertaken by the students include cleanup of the Gorrie and Brussels Mills, Management df the Plantation at the Galbraith Conservation Area and various municipal projects. Further details regarding the program will be forthcoming in future news releases. The Conservation Areas Advis- ory Board and the Reforestation, Land Use and Wildlife Advisory Board both met within the past month. On March 17, Resource Techni- cian Dave Grummett, presented two price quotations for 350 10 - 12 inch trout to the Conservation Areas Advisory Board for the put and take fish pond at the Falls Reserve Conservation Area. Members recommended that the fish be purchased from the Creek Bank Trout Farm - Elmira and placed in the pond in time for the opening trout season. (April 24th). Garnet Wright, Robert Grasby and Russell Kernighan were appointed as members of a committee responsible for the operation of the Falls Reserve Conservation Area for 1976. It was agreed that Mr. Raymond Gowdy of the field staff be the Falls Reserve Conservation Area supervisor again this year. to be attended by representatives of the Palmerston Town Council, and two offices (Stoney Creek and London) of the Ministry of the Environment. The Authority Chairman would conduct this meeting. The Land Acquisition Commit- tee report was presented to the Executive by Harold Hyndman. He reported that Options to purchase on an additional 450 acres of land in the Saratoga Swamp had been accepted by the property owners, If all of this land is purchased it will mean that 900 acres of ecologically valuable swamp will be under the 1 Authority's control, Mr, Deslaur- 1 iers emphasized that the newly established Maitland Conserva- tion Foundation would need to pay a leading role in raising the ,necessary funds, The executive also gave its consent to the realignment of the charges for producing copies of 'the Authority's mapping. People or agencies wishing'dopics will be charged at the rate of 15c/sq, ft. Once again the Authority is happy ,to be providing placemats to dining establishments through- out the watershed, 100,000 copies of an updated mat are being ordered for distribution. The Wawanosh Municipal Park located on Concession 6, East Wawanosh Township is being officially turned over . to the Authority. At a Joint Council meeting attended by Lorne !h• Statement of Capital Fund Operations At their meeting on April 1, the Reforestation, Land Use and Wildlife Advisory Board was informed of the installation of 14 bluebird boxes at the Falls Reserve Conservation Area and 35 boxes at the Wawanosh Valley Conservation Area. This nesting. program is being carried out in co-operation with the Bayfield Bluebird Society and its success will be reviewed jointly by members of the Authority staff and by the Society. It was recommended that the planting fees for the Reforesta- tion Assistance Program be increased. Under the new sche- dule fees for machine planting would be raised to $20,/1,000 trees from S15. and fees for hand planting would be- raised to $25./1,000 from S20.00. This schedule will not come into effect until 1977. Approximately 45,000 trejwill be planted under this Assistance Program this year. A shortage of nursery stock resulted I! in the program being cut from an original 60,000 trees. The Executive Committee of 1# the Authority met on April 7. At that meeting, Mr, Deslauriers, the Resource Manager reported on research which he and the Resources Technician had carried out regarding the proposed sewage lagoon for the town of Palmerston. After Discussion it was recommended by the execu- tive that a meeting be organized TOWNSHIP WAWANOSH Auditor's Report To: The Members of Council, inhabitants and ratepayers of the Township of East Wawanosh We have examined the financial statements of the Township of East Wawanosh and its local board of the year ended December 31, 1975. Our examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of accounting records and other supporting evidence as we considered necessary in the circumstances. In our opinion these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Township of East Wawanosh and its local board as at December 31, 1975 and the results of its operations for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for Ontario municipalities applied, after giving retroactive effect to the changes as referred to in note 2 to the financial statements, on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year. The comparative figures as at December 31, 1974 and for the year then ended are based upon financial statements which were reported on by another auditor, Chartered Accountants Listowel, Ontario, March 29, 1976.

Madill students began the annual chocolate bar drive last week. Last 'Monday, students began knocking on doors and saying "Would you like to buy a chocolate bar to support F. E. Madill?" The price is still $1.00 per bar. Every person who spends one dollar to buy a chocolate bar helps the student council to raise money to support the various clubs and • activities. The Student Council offers prizes every year to the top "Chocolate Bar Sellers" in the school. This gives students an incentive to sell as many bars as possible - and benefit themselves, and the student council. The support of the community has always been appreciated without the wholehearted endorsement ,of the people upon whose doors we knock, the chocolate bar drive would not be the success it is. The profit made each year from selling chocolate bars is one of the major sources of income for the student council. The money will be spent on such things as referees for the school games, • field trips for various clubs, bars for those participating in sports and activities, and annual scholarships. This year's students council has put a lot a of work into making , this chocolate bar drive a success. The community supports the council by buying the bars. The students of P. E. Madill owe both activities arc an important part of the school, and they are worried about the decreasing numbers. To get the clubs started off, an activities campaign will be planned with posters and an activities assembly, featuring guest speakers from the various clubs. Also, more money for clubs planning worthwhile projects, might be an incentive. The class reps should be better informed about matters they vote on so they can vote for what they feel is right, not just what everyone else feels is right. Susan and Brian are positive thinkers and are 'willing to try, and they hope everyone else will do . the same. With the student council and student body working :together, they feel next year won't be just a good year, but a great year.

PG. 13, Blyth TODAY'SCHILD 4H Club BY HELEN ALLEN THE TORONTO'_.)111JJ SYNDICATE AM I READY FOR ADOPTION? "We have been told you have to have a lot of money to adopt a child, Is this true?" "We don't own our house, so we understand we can't adopt a child," "We've heard you can't adopt unless you have a separate room for an adopted child," All are misconceptions, and all are quotations from recent letters to Today's Child. They have been answered by mail but since they come repeatedly, they must reflect wide -spread community ideas. That is why I am dealing with them here. If you are interested in adoption: You do NOT need a lot of money. • You do NOT need to own a house. You do NOT need to provide a separate room for every child.. You will notice these matters refer to material things. Materia things like clothes and food and warmth are important,ortant , of course, but they are NOT the major items considered by adoption workers, However, let's consider them one by one, Regarding money: There is no minimum income required for would-be adopters — and naturally no maximum. What is im- portant is that a family be able to manage on whatever income it has. About home ownership: Whether you pay rent or taxes doesn't affect your qualities as a parent. A rented house or apartment is just as acceptable for an adopted child as for a biological child. On separate'rooms: In many families brothers share rooms or sisters share rooms. There is no reason why an adopted child also cannot share a room. Indeed, during the first strange time in a new home, a roommate might help the adopted child feel less alone. In choosing adopting parents the Children's Aid Societies, which handle adoptions in Ontario, are looking for attitudes more than for possessions. A vital quality in adopting parents is that they be fond of children — really enjoy their company.•They need to be able to love a child born to somebody else. They must be able to accept a child as he/she is now, and, looking into the future, as, he/she may develop. Adoption workers like to know how would-be parents react to stress and how they have solved or would solve problems in their lives. After all, bringing up children, however acquired, is not always easy. They like to be assured that the marriage is a stable one, because it can happen that a child, even if born into a family, may play one parent against another with disastrous results to the marriage if it is not strong in the first place, One senior adoption worker who is also an adopting parent, puts a sense of humor at the top of the list of qualities she looks for. 1f you can laugh at yourself and at the things that don't go right, she says, you're going to come through any of life's situations in better shape. One more thing — the family way of living and its standards have a bearing. A sports -minded family who spends all summer camping.and all winter skiing could not adopt a handicapped child without seriously disrupting their lives, for which they might resent the child. A family for whom education is the most important thing in life could not readily accept a slow learner. The Children's Aid Societies no longer try to match children and parents in appearance. The aim now is to "match" the child's needs and the parents' values. meets Blyth, II, 4•H club held their sixth meeting on April 12 at the home of Mrs. Murray Hamni.

DEAR ANN: From now on my motto is: "Be a stinker. Let someone else be 'Miss Nice Guy.' " Here's what happened, A gal in our office was being married. We were all invited to the wedding. There are 38 employees here. We decided to buy one important gift instead of 38 insignificant ones. I volunteer- ed to collect the money and select the gift. It was quite a job, considering I had to drive 100 miles to get exactly what I wanted. Well, the gift was too large to lug, so I had it mailed to her. Unfortunately, 1 did not insure it. The gift was lost in transit. Now everyone is furious with me. They think I ought to replace it out of my own pocket. I don't have $380 to throw around. Do you feel 1 should bow to the pressure? Or should 1 ignore the insults and refuse to handle office collections in the future? --Abused DEAR AB: I doubt that you'll be asked to handle anything in the future. A person who would send a $380 gift in the mail, uninsured (and other people's money yet!), is extremely irresponsible, Yes, I believe you owe it to them to replace the gift.

If we are all good hikers there will be no danger of the trails of Maitland Valley becoming run- down and covered with garbage. There are somethings to remember. When you go hiking whether it be for a short one or two hour trip or for an entire day or more, wear proper footwear, Your feet are all you have to get you out of an area so be sure that you have them well protected in light but strong, preferably water proof, boots. Running shoes may be comfortable for short walkes on level stone free ground. However, your feet will 'tire quickly if the trail is steep and running rocky. Also,if shoes or street shoes become wet so do your feet and soreness will quickly follow. In warm weather, always carry a container of insect repellent with you.

Balmy skies can .give way to crashing thunder- storms in short order. So, always carry protective clothing such as a rain hat and slicker/with vou. Try never to hike in shorts. Most trails are intentionally routed away from hazardous plants such as poison ivy, poison oak, stinging nettle, and take the easiest route around physical barriers, However, that avoidance is not always possible. It is extremely easy to walk through a patch of poison ivy or to slip on slippery rocks, Long pants will often rovide the protection P necessary to prevent injury, These are only a• few of the important items to remember when you go hiking.
