Second Belgrave landmark hit b.y fire A second Belgrave: landmark was hit be fire this week when the old Belgrave schoolhouse was gutted. The fire hit during the noonhour on Monday. Wingham fire men answered the call and battled the fire for some time before the Blyth fire department was called in to help. Using their equipment which allows them to get right inside the building, the Blyth firemen soon had the fire under control. By that time, however, extensive damage had been done to the building with the fire having burned all the way from the first floor, through the second floor and through the roof in a few spots.

Saturday firemen battled two grass fires. Editorial Pg, 41 'Church Pg. 7' Classified Pg, 13, Entertainment Pg. .15, Farmers warned about safety on road The importance of proper care in driving farm vehicles on public roadways was stressed Friday night when the Huron County Farm Safety Association, held a meeting, banquet and dance at the White Carnation at Holmesville. Guest speaker following the dinner was Const. R.W. Wilson, Community Services Officer for the Ontario Provincial Police in Huron County. Const. Wilson conducted a quiz of 29 questions based on regulations covering farm vehicles as contained in the Highway Traffic Act. He stressed that the laws apply to all public roads, not just provincial highways. Among the topics he discussed in a free -wheeling conversation with members Businessmen dress up for Centennial Members of the Blyth Board of Trade voted Mondk o night to wear centennial dress during the village's centennial celebrations July 30 to August 1. The decision to wear the period garb was one of a number of plans made by the organization to get ready for , the Centennial. The Board is also working with the Horticultural Society, on ideas to beautify main street through the use of flowers. The Board has also approved a motion to buy flags and bunting to decorate the stores with this being resold to individual store owners. A motion was also passed to ask the Centennial Committee to approach the Public Utilities Commission about renting lighting decorations on a centennial theme from Clihton, or some other town which has, recently celebrated its centennial. The dinner meeting attended by more than 30 local business persons heard Judge Francis Carter of Goderich tell of some of the events that town is planning to mark its 150th anniversary. Hullett deals with drains Drain business took up most of the time at two recent meetings of Hullett Township Council held at Londesboro. At a special meeting held April 13, council referred petitions for drains by Youngblut; Dodds and Taylor; and the Medd drain to the engineer H. Uderstadt and the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. The clerk was instructed to advertise for tenders for the Young drain. . The report of the Verwey Drain was considered at the meeting of council on April 4. All of the interested landowners present seemed satisfied with the work though Len Archambault was not entirely happy with the assessments. The report was provisionally accepted, with court of revision for May 2. The Young drain report was also considered with several landowners from Hullett and Morris and members of Morris council were present.. There were no complaints and the report was provision- ally accepted with court of revision for May 2. The tender of Radford Construction beat out the bid of Joe Kerr Ltd. for 15,000 cu. yards of gravel at $1.65 per yard. The bridge apraisal prepared by Burns Ross and Associated was accepted to be forwarded to the Ministry of Transport and communications. Council agreed at the April 4 meeting to co-operate with the Londesboro Athletic Association to raise money to install lights on the Hullett Central School grounds. Council ' approved the hiring of an assistant to the clerk -treasurer for up to 10 days a month. Building permits were issued at the two meetings to T. Fidom, implement shed; Steve Flynn, barn; Ross Trewartha, house; Charles Brandon, Joe 'Hunking, Milton Dale, John Kostranje, Don Buchanan, Frank Johnston, Fred Helinga. A building permit to Doug Bell will be approved after approval is received from the Huron County Health Unit and the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. A grant of $200 was approved for the Huron County Farmstead and Home Improvement competition. of the audience was the problem of farm vehicles which are too wide for legal travel on the road. He said he sympathized with the problems of farms and that action should be taken at the manufacturing level to make equipment which meets legal limits, but it is the job of the police to enforce the law, not try to change it, he said. He pointed out that the legal width limit of 102 inches is often exceeded even by tractors with dual wheels, let alone huge cultivators and corn planters which can be 18 feet wide or more. The legal length of vehicles, he said, is 65 feet and that can be made up of any number of vehicles such as farm wagons. The wagons must, however, have a chain guard or similar separate means of attachment in case the main attachment breaks. Loads over 20 feet long must also have the proper lights ' or reflectors mounted on the sides of the load. Wilson also pointed out the require- ments for proper placing of slow moving vehicle signs on farm vehicles as being in the centre of the mass, base down. After the lengthy presentation which was kept lively with examples of Const. Wilson's humour, banquet convenor Don Young of Auburn impressed upon the audience the purpose of the organization to try to improve safety on the farm. He said the Employees Health and Safety Act gives the provincial government authority to get tough on farmers in regards to safe working conditions, It is better for farmers to clean up their own act, he said, than to have the government impose restrictions. He spoke of such things as roll-over protections for farm tractors to be used with seat belts. Const. Wilson interjected to say this sounded like a good idea since the local O.P.P. detachments deal with four or five roll-overs a year and they can be deadly.

Spotlighting the bad Much attention has been given, in recent weeks, to the battle in Essex county over the right of local French Canadians to have a highschool of their own. The French highschool issue has been going on for some time now with the local school board refusing demands both from the local French Canadian families and from the provincial government, The battle, however, gained the spotlight because of the present concern about the future of Canada now that a separatist government is in power in Quebec. The issue rated headlines in the Quebec press before it did in Ontario and became grist for the P.Q. argument that English Canadians don't want to give French Canadians an even break. Faced with this kind of pressure, the Ontario government had little choice but to step in and force the creation of a French school in Essex county (which includes the city of Windsor population). It was no longer just a local issue but an issue of national importance. But what the Essex county issue has done, is to spotlight one bad French -English clash in Ontario and ignore all the progress that has been made in the province in the past few years to put French and English on an equal footing: The Essex county French -language secondary school, for instance, would be the 22nd such school in Ontario. But who ever hears about the other 21? In addition there have been many, many more elementary schools built to serve the French-speaking stdents of the province, As Dr. Ted Bounsall, M.P.P. for Windsor- andwich (N.D.P.) recently pointed out, Essex county is the only officially designated bilingual area in Ontario that does not have its own French language secondary school. The image of Ontario in the national press is of a place that talks a good game but where the people won't give French Canadians a school of their own. It's unfortunate. There are many improvements that need to be made here, and we're certainly far from a perfect example of French -English brotherhood, but Ontaio's record is a lot better than the present dispute would seem to indicate. Fickle fans In Canada, only the weather can change faster than the feelings of hockey fans. One week ago the Toronto Maple Leafs went into Philadelphia with most people predicting they would lose their playoff series in four straight games. They won the first game. Toronto fans were delighted but sceptical. They got lucky, they said. The Leafs, lo and behold, win the second game. The fans are ecstatic The team is wonderful. The coach is a genius. Satues should be built for all the players. The Leafs will win the series four straight games. The Leafs, however, blow a late lead and lose the third game in overtime. The fans are upset but a little philosphical. The fourth game, the Leafs blow an even bigger lead and again lose in overtime. Suddenly the players are bums. The coach, so shortly before called genius, is now completely stupid for using the same tactics that won the first two games. The team is now going to be wiped out because the other team is so much superior (even though the other team won two narrow overtime games and has been outscored by Toronto). - With three games left the possibility is there that the fans may yet have the chance for two more flip-flops of opinion as the Leafs win or lose. Anyone watching from another planet must shake their heads and wonder how people can change so quickly and easily. Politicians, however, are likely happy with the way things are going. The fickelness of the public is tuned to sports not politics for a while. Rights and lives A letter to the editor in a local daily newspaper recently brought up the subject again of individual rights when it comes to the topic of abortion. It was fine, the doctor who wrote the letter said, for the Pro -Life supporters to decide for themselves that abortion was wrong but they had no right to decide that abortion should be wrong for everybody. The pro -abortion supporters argue time and again that abortion should be a right of the individual. That society can not make rules on the subject to guide people. That a woman alone should have the right to say that the life within her should either continue or be ended. Fine, then let's take that argument and apply it to the rest of life. If abortion should be a subject for the individual conscience, why not such things as murder, theft and rape? Should we not leave these matters up to the individual to decide and hope the murderers, rapists and • thieves will think better of it. The answer of course is that you'll find few people who agree we should. It's the old adage of depending on who's ox is being gored. It's easy for people to snuff out life through abortion because it's not their life: Instead, it's a case of getting rid of a nuisance. But what if your neighbour decided you were a nuisance and the easiest way to get rid of you was with a bullet? Certainly something has to be done to help us halt the population explosion and to prevent unwanted pregnancies but the answer is through propereducation and readily available contraceptives. The answer is not in killing unborn human beings any more than the answer to the population explosion is to drop a few atomic bombs on heavily populated areas. Once we begin to decide in cold blood that Life is expendible, we're only one step from atrocities like the Nazi death camps. 11 M; ASSOC. OF MUNICIPALITI`S MIS oN'AAIO TO TAN CHURCHUU, CONVLNTS, AND CIMLTI 1115' BY KEITH ROULSTON My vote for most outdated word in the English language these days would go to the word "fair". If you complain that some situation or other is not fair, you're likely to get the reply "whoever said things were fair in this world." Things, of course, often aren't fair, but today's generation seems to feel that is a good excuse for deleting fairness from their actions altogether. Why should we be fair to the other guy when it's so much easier to be blind to his side of the story and only think of ourselves? Did you ever stop to think how many •of the world's problems could be solved if all of us tried to be fair in our decisions and judgements? I got thinking about that problem the other day and came to the conclusion that the world would be a near -perfect place to live if people would obey that single old-fashioned—Golden Rule: "Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you." More than any of the other philosophical sayings, more even than. the 10 Commandments, or all the laws of all the religions on the earth, that simple sentence is the recipe for world peace. Of course it's a tough recipe to follow. What the Golden Rule calls for is fairness. It calls on us to look at things from the other guy's point of view and try to understand him. Apply that to some of the problems of the world, and see what would happen. Take our current concern over the future of the country for Whatever happened • to fairness? instance. Opponents of bilingual- ism in Canada in the past hundred years have been the main cause of present problems. At first the opponents came from English Canada, now they are starting to come from French Canada too. Would the a gu• ments of these people be so strong, however, if they simply sat down and looked at the problem from the other side. How would you, for instance, like suddenly to be moved to a different place in the country in which you were born and not be able to communicate with anyone, your neighbours, the local businesses, even your govern- ment in the language which you learned at your mother's side? That has been the case for millions of French-Canadians for many years. English Canadians may soon get a taste of the same medicine if they have to move to Quebec for one reason or another. In Canada too, we've seen a growing antagonism between the working person and his union on one side, and the people who run business on the other. We've seen cases where the manage- ment has deliberately and spite- fully fired workers or closed factories to prevent a , union getting a foothold in the business. On the other hand we've seen companies put out of business because the workers wouldn't believe that the company just couldn't afford to pay higher wages. Imagine what might have happened if each side put itself in the other guy's shoes. The examples could go on and on of how simply trying to. be fair could solve so many problems. The sad fact is, however, that most people find it so much easier not to worry about fairness. The legacy of the rebellious 60's is the art of confrontation politics. The activists of the 1960's set out to right injustices in society. In some cases they succeeded in improving things, but they also brought about a system where you don't try to sit down with the other side and reason things out, instead you bring about a confrontation be it a strike or a sit down or seizing a building. Battles are not won today at the conference table, but at the press conference. The strategy is to get a lot of publicity for the cause and try to embarass the other guy into giving in. To do this you actually promote misunderstanding; you attempt to see things in an "us" against "them" manner with "us" always right and "them" always wrong. To try to see the other guy's side would defeat the whole strategy. And thus we have what Tom Wolfe called the "Me genera- tion" which is so busy in self•fullfillment that there is no room to see that "I" might be wrong and ° "they" right for a change. Fairness and the golden rule are as dead as the dodo bird. But until the idea of fairness returns, this is going to be a rotten world to live in. Perform a death -defying • Give Heart Find. Give Heart Fund W THE BLYTH STANDARD/APRIL 20, 1977. PG. 5, , BY BILL SMILEY There's no question about it. Somebody -up -There does look after us poor, forked creatures here below. I have proof, When I left you last week, I was in the throes of ferocious agony in the back. Neither the doctor nor I knew whether it was a slithering disc, a boulder in my kidneys trying to escape, or leprosy of the liver, A week later, we still don't know. X-rays were taken, but the doc hasn't received them yet. Of course, it's a whole mile from the hospital, where they were taken, to his office, so that's explain- able. They probaly sent them by mail. But the pain has eased off to a dull grind, and that's the reason for my opening statement. There does seem to be a Great Plan, and maybe Somebody does see us little sparrows fall, Because just as my back was emerging from the acute stage, )� succumbed to that gross, disgust- ing, shuddering, juddering, swe- ating, griping, embarrassing, exhausting ailment known euph- emistically, even when it occurs in March as the "summer'flu'." Or, in less ladylike circles, "The dire rear." Now, l know perfectly well that had the two concurred, the bad back that made me scream when I lifted a sheet of paper, and the exigencies of my other ailment, this would be an obituary column. Doesn't that prove that the meek shall inherit the earth? Or something. You may think that is a bit simple-minded, or a coincidence. But the process, once begun, went right on. My wife had decided to redecorate the living room. She bought the paint, made a contract with the painter, and the work began, while I lay around shivering and wondering which end of my candle was going to burn next. Horrors. The paint was all wrong. Instead of a delicate, cool green, it went on the wall as a • Somebody up there really does cold whitey -blue, about the shade you'd find on the walls of a penitentiary cell. After one day's painting, she was near tears. Didn't sleep a wink. But, and here's where good old Grace comes in, came a solution. The special deity that looks after poor, downcast, middle-aged people who are either plunging into the Depths of Despair, or sea sickly navigating Dire Straits, came to the rescue. Since 1 was too weak, she had to put out the garbage. While she was doing so, she came across an I old color chart for paint that had exactly the shade she wanted on the walls. • Shrieks of joy, Off to the hardware, hammering on the door before they were open. Back home, before the painter arrived, with another $50 worth of paint. Perfect! Joy reigns supreme in the Smiley psychiatric ward. Perhaps you're still skeptical. Maybe you don't believe that a Higher Power is looking after yoii-know-who. Consider these facts. My wife informed me, and I had to agree, because I was too shaky to argue, that she had actually saved money on the deal, This may seem silly, as we had doubled the paint requirements for a room thirty feet long, eighteen feet side, and eleven feet high. Not so. If we'd stuck with the first paint, we'd have had to throw out the old drapes, and spend about 5250 on new ones, because the old ones didn't go with the new paint, if you're still with me. We save vast sums like this all the time. Maybe, you begin to see the pattern now. Blit that's not all. Because I was too sick and weak and shaky to write a column or mark exam papers. I cleaned out my drawers. Please. This had nothing to do with the dire rear previously mentioned. I'm referring to the drawers in my desk. It's all I was fit for, physically,, mentally, or emotion- ally. And I found some tremendous stuff in there. Hundreds of letters, unanswered. Two re- quests from publishers to put my column into book form. Five requests to be guest speaker at something or other. A padlock for a school locker. Ancient, paid -off mortgages. Eighteen paper clips and twelve rubber bands and seven pencils, A copy of my will,. unsigned. Two insurance policies I didn't know I had, Two hundred old columns. Fifteen addresses I'd been looking for for years. A copy of a great editorial I once wrote, entitled, "Sex and the Editor," A letter from my daughter, aged ten, at camp, wanting to come home at once. A letter from same daughter, aged eighteen, saying insouciantly, from Mont- real, 'If you ever want to see me again, send some bread, as I have care one cent." We sent. Old stock certificates, impress- ively printed, total value three dollars as wallpaper. Letters from my son from Alaska, Halifax, Mexico City, Jerusalem, Paraguay, New Orleans. Letters from nice old ladies who scold me gently for my vulgarity. Letters from vular old men who scold me roundly for not "letting 'er rip." Letters from former students (mostly girls) who perhaps used me as a surrogate father or older brother or uncle, who tell me all their troubles, and who have now Blyth U.C.W. holds Easter Thankoffering The Easter Thankoffering meeting �f the Blyth U.C.W. was held in the United Church at 8 p.m. on April 3. Devotions which effectively set the atmosphere for the main feature of the meeting were conducted by Mrs. Keith Webster and Mrs. Ray Griffiths. Special music was provided by the Ladies choir with Mrs. Cecil Wittich at the piano. They sang expressively two numbers: Under the Old Olive Tree and The Way of the Cross.

It was a combination of Aladdin's cave and Pandora', s box. But 1 do want to get the theme. If I hadn't had a sore back, 1'd never have had it get better so I could survive the dire rear. If I hadn't had the dire rear, we'd have the wrong paint on the living room, and I'd never have cleaned out my drawers. And if those two hadn't occurred, we wouldn't be having a sale of whitey -blue paint, and a large bonfire, simultaneously, on the first day the backyard dries up. Don't talk to me about evolution, Darwin, survival of the fittest. It's perfectly obvious, as I have shown, that there is a Grand Plan for the universe, and that there is Someone, or Something, in charge of it.

TRUTH! BY REV. FRED CARSON If the founding fathers could return to Blyth this day, they would see many changes -- not all good! They would enter this 20th century Blyth and be overwhelmed with the vast improvements that have been realized over those of their day. They would see the wonderful technological and scientific achievements of the past 100 years and the more leisurely life that we have as a result. But they would also see a drastic change in personal relationships and the general moral fibre of our community, They would see man and wife quarrelling unmercifully as marriages decay and fall apart, while the children show little or no respect for their parents. Also in evidence would be the frivolous attitude towards the use of alcohol (Let's have fun - get bombed!); the unheard of 'smoking up' or 'shooting up' with drugs resulting in the deaths of many and the even greater number who are committed to psychiatric hospitals; not to mention the irresponsible attitude towards sex in a permissive society, where 'shacking up' has become an acceptable thing to do in the eyes of the world generally - marriage is almost scorned as an outmoded institution. There is great turmoil in the world of 1977 - unrest between nations and individuals as well as the inner strife of the average person living to our present society with all its demands and confusions, resulting in an unprecedented number suffering from ulcers and nervous disorders. If our forefathers were to return, however, they would see that one thing remains exactly as it was in the beginning. They would see that, in spite of all the heartache and bitterness in the world, the same inner peace and contentment is available today, They would soon understand that it is still possible to 'fly high' without indulging in drugs or alcohol and a fulfilling and rewarding life can be realized within the bonds of marriage. This is all possible through the one person who never changes - Jesus Christ, for He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8) Because of this truth that Jesus Christ can and will set individuals free from the bewilderment, confusion, and hopelessness of this present troubled world, there is no better way to thank our forefathers than to celebrate our 100th birthday with a Crusade. And there is no better way to mark this memorable occasion than by singing praises to God from whom all Blessings flow, On April 24, 25, and 26, we will have the wonderful opportunity of hearing and receiving the ageless Good News of Jesus Christ. If you do not have the freedom; the peace; and the joy that you would like, will give God a chance to show you that it is available? Don't shrue your shoulders and say, "That's not for me," but seek the Truth and it will make you free (John 8:32), WALTO.N NEWS Bureau editor MRS ALI.AN Walton Euchre held On Tuesday evening April 12 there were ten tables of progres- sive euchre in play at the Walton Community Hall with hostesses Mrs. Graeme Craig, Mrs, James Axtmann, Mrs, Laverne Godkin and Mrs. Bill Humphries in charge.

Huron Progressive Conservatives name first woman president Mrs. Margaret Bennett of Wingham is the new president of the PC Association for the federal riding of Huron -Bruce. At left Is 'former minister of agriculture for Ontario, William Stewart, Bob Carbert, director of the Ontario Agricultural Museum, the guest speaker at the founding convention of the association. Right, Robert McKinley, MP, member for Huron -Bruce. Mrs. Margaret Bennett . of Wingham became the first woman president of the Huron Progressive Conservative Assoc- iation on Wednesday evening. Mrs. Bennett accepts the leadership of the Federal riding association at a particularly important time in the history of that organization. The constitu- ency has been represented int he House of Commons for the past 12 years by Robert McKinley of Zurich, and his private member's bill, changing the name of the riding, is expected to be passed by the Commons in June. Until redistribution a few months ago Mr. McKinley's riding was known as Huron -Middlesex be- cause the townships of Biddulph and McGillivray were included. The lastest shuffle has lopped off the two Middlesex townships and has added the four, southern townships and four towns in Bruce County. Mr. McKinley's bill will change the name of the constituency to Huron -Bruce. Thus, the Wednesday meeting, held in the new Howick Township Community Centre, became the founding convention for the new riding of Huron -Bruce. The slate of officers approved by the meeting includes a lengthy list of the party faithful, in addition to Mrs. Bennett: Honor- ary presidents are Robert E. McKinley, Zurich; Elmer Bell, Exeter; Hon. Charles MacNaugh- ton, Exeter; James Hayter, Goderich; William Walden, Wingham; George McCutcheon, Brussels; Frank Walkom, Goder- ich; John Durnin, Auburn; Clayton Laithwaite, Goderich; and Elgin McKinley, Zurich. President, Mrs. Bennett; vice- president, Harry Hayter, Dash- wood; Murray Cardiff, Ethel; Jim Ainsley, Goderich; Robert Emer- son, Ripley; William Musser, Exeter; Gerry Holmes, Clinton; Robert Dinsmore; Seaforth; Directors: Joe Reichenback, Mildmay; Mrs. Donna Woods, Clinton; Ed Powell,' Wingham; Roy Cousins, Brussels; Elmer Hayter, Varna: Young PC director, Mis Janet Haines, Wingham; election fin- ance chairman, Lorne Kleinstiv- er, Dashwood; sec-treas., Mrs. Betty Graham, Brucefield. The executive also includes the chairpersons for each of the municipalities within the riding. CARBERT IS SPEAKER Bob Carbert, director. of the recently -formed Ontario Agricul- tura! Museum, and a former resident of Wingham, was the guest speaker for the evening and was introduced by William Stewart, former minister of agriculture for the province. Mr. Stewart said he was "delighted" at the opportunity to introduce Mr. Carbert, a man with whom he had worked closely for many years. He recalled Mr. Carbert's experiencein agricultural affairs from his boyhood on a Perth County farm, to his time as farm editor for CKNX in Wingham. Later he served with the Canadian Federation of Agricult- ure, the Ontario Federation, the CBC and in 1968 became Mr. Stewart's executive assistant in the Ontario Ministry of Agricult- ure and Food, which post he held until his appointment as director of the agricultural museum. Mr. Carbert's address proved to be a thoughtful analysis of the role of our elected representatives and the often unreasonable demands made upon them by the voters of the province and the nation. He said there must be a proper balance between the responsibility of the elected persons to their voters' demands and the amount of time and energy those members devote to the functioning of good govern- ment, "We elect our members to govern," said the speaker, "not DO IT YOURSELF!

MANNING & SONS LIMITED BUILDING CENTRE Blyth, Ontario Phone 523-4251 A just to lobby for us," We pay our elected members disgraceful wages and at the same time make outrageous demands upon them," said Mr, Carbert, He compared the sti- pens of members of the Legislat- ure and the Commons with the much higher salaries paid to leaders of business and industry. In some detail he described the sacrifice of personal freedoms, family life, and any time for relaxation which is the lot of elected persons, particularly those who are prepared to assume higher office in cabinet. The speaker also denied the frequent rumors that civil ser- vants as a class are lazy, non-productive and greedy. He said that he has been associated with government employees at all levels for 20 years and invariably found them hard-working and dedicated. He added that civil servants cannot defend themsel- ves from slander, since few ' are empowered to act as spokesmen to the general public. The size and scope of the civil service body, said Mr. Carbert, is determined by the number and size of the programs demanded of government by we, the voters. In conclusion the speaker said, "We get the kind of government we deserve". LIVELY ENTERTAINMENT During and following the dinner Vince Mountford of Brampton led in some lively sing -songs and provided a fast - paced patter of jokes and humor. The Town and Country Four from the Seaforth area pleased the audience with several selections in close quartet harmony. Fred Heaman of McGillivray, a past president of the former Huron -Middlesex riding, acted as chairman for the gathering and introduced the dignitaries at the head table and scattered through- out the audience. Before the meeting concluded Mr. Heaman read the new constitution for the riding association. mrs. Bennett expressed her appreciation of the honor bestow- ed upon her and asked for the full co-operation of all members to make the new riding of Huron - Bruce a vital and effective organization. Bob McKinley, MP, tendered his appreciation to the many persons who had been involved in the planning and preparation for the meeting and siad he expected that legislation to re -name the riding will be passed within a few weeks.

DEAR ANN LANDERS: Once you wrote, "If you don't use it -- you'll lose it," I don't think my husband ever had it, or if he had it, he lost it before he met me. "L" is a terrific person. Hove him dearly. We have a wonderful marriage everywhere but in bed, The man can think of 20 things to do before turning in. By then, • of course, he is too exhausted for anything more than a peck on the cheek. If find myself thinking of ways to seduce him and I hate myself for it. We are still in our 20's and have been married only five years. I should tell you our honeymoon was very unexciting. "L" was always finding some- thing to do that required time and m energy. What'sy problem, p Ann? —Hungry. DEAR H.: Your problem is learning how to deal with HIS problem which is either a very low sex drive or impotency. Almost all impotency in men under 50 has a psychological base (early hang-ups, guilt about sex, etc.). I hope "L" will agree to get some counseling. Husbands who can live without sex -- especially young husbands •• should be mindful that even if THEY can, some wives can't. DEAR ANN LANDERS: Recently, my husband, who is a Methodist minister, performed a wedding ceremony uniting two young people. Now his consc- ience is bothering him because he 'realizes the marriage should never have taken place. A few days before the ceremony, the groom told my husband and his intended that he didn't want to go through with the wedding because he was still in love with the girl to who he had been previously engaged— The bride made a terrible fuss and refused to call off the wedding. Now my husband believes the cermony was not only devil's work but a fraud. He feels guilty about having,p'erformed the ceremony an\ can't sleep at night. Please print this letter and ask other ministers if they feel my husband did wrong. —Miser. able In Charleston, S.C. DEAR MISERABLE: Here's the letter: Now, let's hear from the clergymen. Since you didn't ask for my opinion I'm not giving one. DEAR ANN: When I was of high school and college age, my father frequently used my hones- ty and outspokenness as an excuse to provoke a heated argument at the supper table. It often ended with him chewing me out, leaving his meal unfinished and stomping into the den to read the paper. Twenty years later 1' realized Dad used me, his son, as an outlet for the tension he was unable to Wife complains husband lost it release in a socially acceptable manner. Outside the home, particularly among his business associates, Dad was regarded as a "great guy" and "a very amiable person." His son got the worst of him in order that others might get the best. This enabled "Mr. Corporate Big Wheel" to climb the ladder of success and support his family whom he loved. I didn't understand it then, but I do now. Pll sign this letter —My turn now, DEAR TURN: Your explana- tion sounds like an oversimplicat- ion, but if this rationalization has given you peace of mind, yvho am I to raise questions? Your signature bothers me, I hope you aren't planning to do, the same to your son. *** Are your parents too strict? Hard to reach?

THE BLYTH STANDARD/APRIL 20, 1977. Huron Perth Separate Board sends teachers to Family course BY WILMA OKE The Huron•Perth County Rom- an Catholic Separate School Board will sponsor up to 30 teachers to the Family Life course at St. Jerome's College, Water- loo, in the summer of 1977 at a maximum cost of $3600.00. The tuition fee for each teacher is $120, which the board will pay but each teacher must assume any travel or boarding costs. Before each teacher takes the course he or she must be approved by the board. Trustee Michael Connolly said, "Paying $120 per course we want to be sure the teacher will continue with our system. The taxpayers are paying." Mr. Connolly expressed his concern that all schools should have teachers taking the course, and that some schools should not have a bigger percentage than others. • The board members decided at the meeting In Dublin, April 12 that they want a cheque disburse- ment mailed to them with the agenda when available, and time will be set aside at the following board meeting for trustees to direct questions, if any, to the finance committee for elabor- ation. The clergy -board liaison com- mittee will meet April 14 or 21, or as soon as a meeting can be set up with the clergy, to discuss the problem of the spring break period in 1978 being the same time as Holy . Week. On the committee representing the board will be Mickey Vere, hoard chairman, Michael Connolly and Hullett Happenings Spring concert held On April 21; there will be a Spring Concert at Hullett Central at 8:15 p.m. The concert will include grades 2, 4, 7 and 8, and the Power Learning Class.

The grade 4 class will also. t,e presenting a play called "Zachary Mole and the Busy Folks", followed by gymnastics. The grade 7 class will be putting on a Spring Fashion Show, featuring the lastest styles in spring clothing. The grade 8's are presenting their version of "The Gong Show." Preceeding the concert, an Open House will be held. Here the pupils will show their classrooms to their parents. The open house will take place from 6:45 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. RUMMAGE SALE A Rummage sale was held at Hullett on April 15. The pupils brought in old toys, games, ornaments, etc. to be sold in the gymnasium. Candy was also brought in. The sale was held by the Student's Council. HEALTH NURSES Last week, two health nurses came to our school. They examined some students for hearing and vision problems.

REFiRESHMENT • Donald Crowley. If the committee recommends that the spring break week be changed to another week, and the board approves, then the board. will make a submission to the Mftnistry of Education for final approval of a modified school year, calendar for Huron -Perth area. Phase 2B, Focus on Faith; will be held November 20 at a location not yet determined in Huron or Perth. Bishop Emmett Carter of London has agreed, tentatively to attend. This meeting will be attended by trustees and their spouses, principals and their sprouses and parents represent- ing each school in Huron and Perth counties. John Vintar, Director of Educ- ation reported that five applic- cations have been received for the two French teaching positions to be started on the first of September with the teaching of French to be started in Grades 7 in the schools, Interviews will be held as soon as a committee can be set up. Mr. Vintar and Superintendent Joseph Mills will attend a meeting in Toronto at the Ministry of Education where the Hon. Thomas Wells .will be explaining the program to im- prove and expand the teaching of French as a second language throughout Ontario and if there is any plan to implement additional financial assistance to the board for this program. Superintendent William Mills said that each of the 19 separate schools in Huron and Perth will be holding special programs to mark Education Week being held across Ontario April 17 to April 23. The theme this year is Growing with Dignity and will focus attention on education and make it visible to the community. Mr. Mills said the importance of the Week is that we must enable children to learn without fear of ridicule or destructive criticism and to recognize that all people are entitled to have a mind, a heart and a life of their own. Twelve of the 'trustees who attended the annual conference of the Ontario Separate School Trustees in Toronto the first of the month, along with Mr, Vintar and Mr. Eckert, gave reports on the meetings they attended at the conference. A letter of appreciation will be sent to Bruce R. Heath, Director of Children's Aid Society of Huron County, for serving since late 1975 as a member of the Early School Leaving Committee of the Board due to his pending appointment to the Children's Services Branch of the provincial ministry of community and social services branch and vis change of residence to Toronto.
