WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1978 BLYTH, ONTARIO, PRICE: 20 Cents Volume 88 — No. 42
To honour music teacher
by Debbie Ranney
On top of a shelf in the home of Winona
McDougall sits a statuette of Bach's head. It
seems like an appropriate piece for
someone who's been teaching music since
1919.
Mrs. McDougall, who will be 80 years old
on October 26, was born in Stanstead,
Quebec in the Eastern Townships. Her
ancestry is United Empire Loyalist. She was
educated at Stanstead College where she
took her Associate Degree in Music with the
Toronto College of Music in 1919, the year it
amalgamated with the Royal Conservatory of
Music. Mrs. McDougall was asked to stay on
at Stanstead to teach piano and theory which
she did for eight years. She was also asked to
teach at Alma College but her parents
wanted her close to home.
On Saturday, October 21, past and present
pupils of Mrs. McDougall are having a
reunion in order to help her celebrate her
80th birghday. It seems like a fitting tribute
for someone who has been teaching music
for almost 60 nears,
When she went West to visit a brother she
met John McDougall. They were married
soon afterwards. They lived in Woodstock,
Brantford, Caledonia, and then moved to
Goderich where they lived for eight years.
While in Goderich, Mrs, McDougall was
president of the Goderich Music Festival
from 1943 to 1949, a festival which grew
from a few hundred up into thousands of
contestants. Mrs. McDougall said that the
Festival was started by the Goderich Music
Club who worked with her. The size of the
festival was becoming unwieldy so an
adjudicator suggested smaller competitions
be held in smaller places and that the
winners of these go on to the Goderich
Festival. This suggestion was later carried
through.
Later she and her husband moved to Blyth
where he had a managerial job in the bank.
While in Goderich, Mrs. McDougall had
taught music at the schools and when she
and her husband moved to Blyth she started
teaching at the high school in Wineham.
More Students
After her husband died in 1959, she took
on more private students than she had
before quitting her job at the high school.
Mrs. McDougall has had eight of her
students receive their associate degrees in
music, and she's had four students who have
been the highest scorers in the province.
They were Doris Grierson, highest in the
province in Grade 10 in piano; Glenda
McLlwain from Carlow, highest in Grade 7
piano; Barbara Snell Bosman who took the
highest in her Grade 8 singing and Debbie
Hicks who took the highest in Grade 4
singing.
Musical Careers
Although she has had many students who
have done well with their singing, Mrs.
McDougall didn't start teaching that until
about 10 years ago. She wasn't certain about
it at first but after the first year when her
students got really high marks in their
exams she decided she would carry through
with it.
Another claim to fame for Mrs, McDougall
is that a lot of her students around the
country are now playing the organs in
various churches. A lot of her students have
gone on to further their music careers. Susan
Street went on to take a Bachelor Degree
Music, Brenda Johnston of Belgrave also
went on to take her Bachelor of Music
degree, and Doreen Anderson also fo
Belgrave is at University working on hers.
Douglas Thomason of Wingham is now
teaching music at both Alnia College and
UWO,
Kathy Madill went on to work on her
Bachelor of Music Degree in singing at
Wilfred Laurier University. She is in her runts, Mrs. McDougall has many of her
second year there, own of which she can be proud. She got first

Auburn residents will be seeing a new
face through the wicket at the local post
office. Jewel Plunkett has been officially
sworn in as the new post mistress for
Auburn,
Mrs. Plunkett was among a number of
tenders forthe job when Ken Scott decided to
retire from the position.
The post office is nothing new to Jewel.
She has had a postal route for five years and
feels that has helped prepare her for the new .
position.
As of November Ken will have served as
postmaster for 20 years. Alfred Rollinson

as well as three postal routes. who rents it to Mrs. Plunkett who in turn is
reimbursed a percentage from the postal
authorit ies.
Bert McCreath, from the Goderich post
office, brought out the papers to be signed
and officiated at the transfer of the job
Thursday.
After 20 years Ken said he'll miss the job
and the regular routine but '`would roll with
the times."
The activities at a small post office include
everything from taking care of COD's to
handling money orders.
"In a larger office everyone has their own
jobs to do but here you have to know and do
a bit of everything," said Ken.
"It is like being a general practitioner,"
Ken said.
Ken will be staying on for a few weeks
longer until Jewel gets to know the ropes.
Born and raised in and near Auburn, Jewel
is familiar with all the people and names.
"Being so close is real handy" Jewel said.
"And coming into sort mail every morning
for the route for the past five years has really
gotten me into a good habit."
The post office will have the same hours as
before open five days between 8:30 to 12 and
firm 2 to 5 and until noon on Saturdays.
If Jewel runs into any problems Ken will

as deputy reeve if Mr. Jewitt did seek

From me fo you
by Rhea Hamilton
Fall weather, providing
it's good weather always
makes me feel like a squirrel.
Even when I was a kid,
when fall came around, 1
would do my room up
special; getting closets
cleaned out, and drying
fbwers to look at later in the
winter, 1 even helped pick
and bring in the vegetables
and fruit for winter susten-
ance,
With the years this squir-
rely feeling has intensified,
Now that I have a deep
freezer, and a fruit cellar, my
hands are kept busy through-
out the summer and fall
preparing for a long winter
ahead,
Although we're not jam
and jelly eaters one of the
greatest pleasures is to stand
back and view those neat
little jars of amber and
burgundy coloured delights.
With lots of people re-
member at Christmas those
little jars go a long way in
sending yule time feelings to
loved ones.
Pickles are another great
delight. The spicy aroma fills
the kitchen and seems to
linger for days. I often wish 1
could bottle the smell and
open it up on a blustery day
and enjoy the sensation all
over again.
' Pickles arc a problem in
our house. My partner is
very fussy about how crunchy
his dills are and I try to keep
them small and spicy just to
please. But the best time for
him to cat pickles is in the
feel
summer when the salads are
being served and cold meats
need a little company on the
plate. So 1 wait a whole
winter and spring before I
can reap satisfaction from
seeing his face as he enjoys
those green little dills.
I always have the feeling
that one day in the dead of
winter there will be such an
intensive storm that we will
not be able to get away from
the farm for days, no, weeks,
Then we can live quite
comfortably off the harvest
put away in the fall.
But the last few years old
man winter has pulled a joke
on me and my poor organ-
ization. Either I get caught
away from hoe in the storm
and neither husband nor 1
enjoy the benefits, in time of
need. Or like one time 1 had
gone to work and was going
to pick up bread and dog food
and got storm stayed away.
Meanwhile at home the
husband was busy baking
bread and the dogs were
feasting on hamburg and
soup bones from the freezer.
This year 1 am prepared. I
will faithfully try to keep
extra dog food in the back
room and there is always
yeast and flour kept on hand
for breads, Plus I have taken
a vow not to leave honk if t he
wether is bad, But then I
know what will happen. It
will snow on a clay the paper
has to go out and I will have
Tots of copy to get in and will
head out with good intent-
ions to return soon.

Act now!
The hue and cry about saving your energy resources although not
entirely dead has certainly diminished in volume.
The threat of oil and gas not being existent in 10 years or less seems
to have dropped from many minds and now educators and
conservationists are finding Canadians have to be motivated again into
taking a more conscientious try at conserving for the future.
Ontario Hydro has been trying to impress on us that we must stop
wasting electricity but just how much of that info is sinking in?
On the whole Canadians use more energy than any other nation on a
er-capital basis, and that is not due to the climate. Studies have
shown that the Swedes are much better at conservation than we are
and their weather is just as cold.
It would seem that the almighty dollar is at the basis of this problem.
When Canadians start to feel the crunch on their pockets books then
they may sit up and do something more constructive about saving
energy.
Business and government bodies are now working together on
saving energy.
But individual Canadians have not felt the pinch and may not for
some years.When they do feel it will be too late and we will all be
literally out in the cold.
The time to look seriously at the problem of diminishing energy
supplies is now,not tomorrow or the day after.
Information on energy saving is available through government
agencies.
With rising costs every penny counts. Can we afford to ignore this
situation even with the vast, resources in our great country?
The choice is up to every individual but the result will affect all of us.
If we act now, we can prevent a future energy crisis!
Hold onto your hats
Hold onto your hats ladies and gentlemen. The show is about to
begin and in the centre ring we have local candidates who are willing to
work for you in the political arena.
Every two years Ontarioans have a say in who is going to represent
their best interests in municipal matters.
In this important occasion too many residents, who have the right to
vote, neglect their duties as Canadian citizens on the pretext of not
having time to go to the polls.
Municipal elections have loomed up and .ill of us should take an
interest in who is running and what they will do if elected. Nominations
do not close until October 23 and there is still time for anyone to stand
for election.
In local electons, with rare exceptions, there is very little interest in
the contests. Too often, the same candidates are acclaimed or there are
contests with pitifully low turnout of 35 per cent or less of the eligible
voters.
But Blyth and surrounding areas have enjoyed active voters with a
turnout of over .78 per cent at the_poals.
A Meet the Candidates Night is planned for October 23. For all
those concerned about who to vote for and what the issues are that is a
date no one should miss. Even if you aren't old enough to vote yet
there is no time like the present to learn about the whole procedure
of taking your responsibilities as a Canadian Citizen and practising
your right to vote.

funny, something inspiringly funny. And
every week the troubles of the world creep in
again and some deadly dull column on the
falling dollar, the falling government or the
falling Canadian morale shows up on the
paper in front of me.
One remedy 1 know would be shut off the
radio and television and burn all the
newspapers as soon as they come in the
door. Let's face it with the doom and gloom
that pours out of the media daily, even
hourly, it's pretty hard to be light and witty.
But even if the outside world didn't push it's
gloomy way in there'd still be little chance of
getting something humourous out of this
typewriter on a Monday morning. The
reason is just that: Monday morning.
I'm just not a morning person. My ideal
going to bed time is about 2 a.m. and my
ideal waking time is about 10 a.m. i function
best on that schedule. Unfortunately the
world isn't set up for that schedule. There
ate timetables to keep and 'in our household
that means getting up at 7 a.m. to get
breakfast so the youngsters can be ready to
catch the bus on time. Believe nie I find
nothitig funny about getting up these
morningswhcn it is still dark outside. My
114iole system tells me that this is unnatural.
My subconscious mind tells me that
somebody must have set that alarm clock
wrong 'last night or that it has become
demonic possessed and is trying to terrorize
us,
What convinces nye that it's indeed time to
get up, however, is our secondary alarm
clock: our three year old. He never fails no
matter how dark it is out, no matter whether
electricity has been off, You never have to
wind him up or check the alarm setting. He
automatically wakes up a few minutes before
seven every morning. And he tempts me to
child beating.
You know there's so much work goes on
these days in high school guidance
departments and such agencies to try make
sure people pick the right carter. But one of
the tests they overlook is one of the most
important in my opinion to match the career
to the kind of sleeping habits you have.
Some people function better in the morning:
some better at night. Trying to make a
morning person work evenings is like trying
toput a square peg in a round hole. The poor
guy's miserable and at the same timeisn't
performing at his peak efficiency.
Now me, I always loved being around
animals back when I was growing up on the
farm. I particularly liked the cows and felt
that dairy farming would be the most
rewarding form of farming. There can be a
real and lasting affection built up between a
farmer and his cows, not one of those
fleeting realationships where the idea is to
stuff the animals as full of fccd in as short a
time as possible so they can be shipped off to
market as quickly as possible. That is to a
dairy herd as a one-night stand is to a
rewarding 25 year marriage.
Anyway, the idea of being a farmer went
by the wayside because of one big factor:
economics, I just didn't see any possibility
that I'd ever get enough -money to set up a
farm. Normally that would be a sad story but
in my case it was a blessing in disguise.
Can you imagine me having to get up
every day of the week, every week of the
year at 4 or 5 a.m, to get out to milk the
cows. If I make it out of bed (and that's a
mighty big if) I'd be in such rotten humour
that the first cow that swished a cold damp
tail across my sleepy face would probably
wind up in hamburger patties in the freezer.
One of the worst summerjobs I ever had
back in the days when I was a student was a
construction job which called for me to be at
work everymorning at 7 a.m. (Who ever
invented 7 a.ni. should the sent to the salt
mines of Siberia to start work at 3 a.m. every
morning.) Luckily the job didn't last long.
Oh not for my sake, for the sake of the
people we were building barns for. I
probably created enough construction faults
in those buildings between 7 a.m. and my
time of becoming human at about 9;30 that

New store opens in Auburn
With so many small village
stores going out of business
around the country it is a
relief to see someone busy
getting one started up again.
Such is the case in Auburn
Mere Rick Holden and his
sisterlrene Churchward have
opened the Auburn
Groccteria.
Rick and Irene have moved
into the area fresh from
London and are looking
forward to the less hectic
pace of the rural countryside,
Rick worked at Scaltest
Dairy in London and his
sister at University Hospital.
Niether has worked in a
small store before but both
have been planning for the
day when they would have
their own shop. The store
was previously owned by
Don McCauley and had
already been renovated.
The new owners are not
planning any major changes
but are thinking of keeping
up with the times and looking
to the future for new ideas,
"We have never been to
Auburn before and we don't
know any one here" said
Rick. "But we have met a lot
of friendly people and are
enjoying meeting everyone."
"We liked London but it
was growing so fast and so
big" said Irene. "it was
almost as bad as Toronto
when it came to traffic,"
The new residents are not
going to have a grand
opening, "We are quiet folk
and we opened quietly last
week," Irene said.
The first few weeks have
been hectic. There has been
a lot of organizing and
ordering to do and as of yet
they have not completely
stocked up,
Their original home was
Dundee, Scotland and only
fourteen years ago they came
to Canada, Both grew up in
the Scottish country side and
appreciate the country
around Auburn,
. Irene knits and crochets
when she has time and Rick
enjoys a good game of golf.
He is also a Legion member.
Both arc lookingforward to
gettingiiore involved in the
community when they arc
more settled.
Next year is Auburn's
125th birthday and every one
is planning big things and
Rick and Irene are no except-
ion, "We have a few ideas
that we would like to see put
together for the'celebrations"
said Irene,

Aid given with strings
The October meeting of
the afternoon Unit of the
U.C.W, was held in the
Sunday School room with
Mrs. Leslie Bolt in charge.
Mrs. Elizabeth Leslie
read a poem the "First
Thanksgiving" then Mrs.
Bolt gave a reading, "The
Canadian Cornucopia" and
led in prayer.
Mrs. Carl Anderson and
Mrs. Ross Higgins were
named to arrange the
Christmas meeting.
Mrs. William Fenton con-
ducted the . study on the
Caribbean and Canada the
final chapter on the subject.
She said aid to the West
Indies is a mixture of good
intentions and confusion.
The aid is given with strings
attached, whether it is out -
80% must be used to buy
Canadian goods and ser-
vices. The strings attached
leave West Indian materials,
experts and plants idle. The
policies of the Canadian
government on aid, im-
migration,t rade and tourism
have made Caribbean people
suspicious of a Canada
primarily interested in
Canadian profits.
The Bible study was taken
by Mrs. George Martin who
dwelt on Thanksgiving. Her
first reading was "Thankful
Living" followed by "A Call
of Thanksgiving". She said,
In churches everywhere the
grateful will worship before
altars loaded with the fruits
of abundant harvest. We
have only to think of our
standard of living, our
system of education and our
cultural opportunity to re-
joice in the heritage which is
ours.

Bonds have been a great Canadian
tradition.
With Canada Savings Bonds, you get
a safe, secure investment which earns
good interest year after year. And
they're instant cash anytime.
No wonder millions of Canadians invest
in Canada Savings Bonds every year.
New Canada Savings Bonds
are dated November 1, 1978
and yield an average annual
interest of 8.90% when held
to maturity in 1985. Each
new bond earns interest of
8.50% the first year and
9'4 for each of the remaining
6 years.
The choice is
yours
Canada Savings Bonds
also offer you a great choice.
There's a Regular Interest
Bond that pays interest
each year. And a
Compound Interest
Bond that reinvests your
interest automatically.
Choose the bond that's
right for you.
Simply ask for it when you buy your
new bonds. Or, you can receive your
interest by cheque through the mail.
You can buy the Regular Interest
Bond for cash wherever you bank or
invest in denominations of $300,
$500,$1,000, $5,000 and $10,000.
The Compound
Interest Bond
If you seek savings growth, or an
investment for the future, or a
retirement fund, you'll choose the
Compound Interest Bond which earns
interest -on your interest, after the first
year, at the guaranteed annual rate of
8.90%.

TEMPWOOD we
for down-to-earth comfort
Of course you are interested in learning how a
woodstove can save you a significant percen-
tage of your annual fuel bill. Many stoves on the
market today can probably do that, depending
on the insulation of your home and outside tem-
perature.
But another important
point is design and many
of our clients have
chosen the TEMPWOOD
wood burning stove over
any other just because of
its good looks.
Fuel efficiency, quality
of construction and good
design will make the
TEMPWOOD your first
choice for down-to-earth
comfort, at a down-to-
earth price.

Rabies threat in
There has been an upswing in the number
of rabies cases reported in the three
northern townships of Huron County in the
past mont1i and a half,
Dr, Bill Thompson, of the Health of
Animals branch, Seaforth said there hat
been four positive cases of rabies reported
from the north of the county in both
September and October.
Dr, Thompson said foxes or skunks are the
known carrier of rabies in this part of the
province. ,
He said there are more problem recently
with foxes fighting with dogs. If it is
suspected the l'c x is rabid, then the dogs
have to be quarantined to ascertain if they
also have the disease.
In the past month and a half, two rabid
foxes and a ram were reported in Grey
Township, and one rabid fox in Morris
Townsh ip.
Two cattlebeasts, a skunk and a fox were
found to be rabid in Howick Township.
Dr. Thompson said the cattlebcast were
likely bitten either by a fox or skunk.

Huron Reports
predicted there may be above normal levels
of rabies in southern Ontario in the coming
months,
Dr. Thompson recently taped a show with
Cliff Robb of CKNX television, Wingham, in
which he advised residents of the three
northern counties that there was a slight
upswing in the number of rabies cases
reported.
Natural REsources Minister James Auld
said the 1978-79 season is the tenth year
since the disease last occurred, and there
was a major outbreak before that in 1958-59.
"If this 10 -year cycle recurs, a peak can be
expected this fall and winter," the minister
said,
Ourbrcaks of rabies have already been
reported in Bruce, Carleton, Frontenac,
Grey, Lanark, Leeds, Lincoln and Renfrew
Counties with red fox and skunk being htc
major carriers.
The minister warened that rabid animals
are frrcqucntly unusually tame, and any wild
animal whose behavior seems unusual
should be avoided.
"If a sportsman docs contact rabies,
either through his own dog or by direct
amtact with a rabid fox or skunk, a physician
or veterinarian should be notified im-
mediately", Mr. Auld said.

The new FireSide* CARMOR combines the
enjoyment of watching a cozy fire with the
Increased efficiency of a downdraft stove.
Handcrafted, brass plated doors and Vycora
high -temp glass makes this traditional looking
fireplace a beautiful and functional addition.
The downdraft tubes bring pre -warmed air directly
to the fire wood. This "blow torch" effect means
you get more efficient and even burning, When
you're ready to fire up your FireSide* CARMOR,
just open the air regulators wide and you'll have a
beautiful fire started within minutes! And it burns
cleanly and almost completely too!
The exclusive UNIMAX ribbed 1/e" mild steel plate
construction gives double the strength without
doubling the weight! This unique feature (patent
pending) allows for a rapid heat transfer which
increases the overall efficiency. Your FireSide*
CARMOR is so strong, we'll give you a 10 year
written warranty against any defect in materials
and workmanship.
Look into a new FireSide* CARMOR at your

will make it a favourite for Canadian families all
winter long.

Trustees debate uture Blyth

The Auburn Trustee,Board
met last Saturday evening for
their October meeting in the
Auburn Town Hall, The
minutes were ready by the
Berk Frank Raithby and
approved. A letter was
received from the Huron

open for the exchange of
books, It was stated that
storm windows will be placed
on the windows, The new
street lights were discussed
and it is hoped they will be
soon installed. Nomination
sheets were passed out and it
is hoped there will be a great
interest shown and maybe
enough qualify that an
election will be necessary.
Nine persons were present at
the meeting.
Will the Auburn Com-
munity Memorial hall be
repaired, insulated re-
novated or just let fall to
pieces? That's what the
members of the Hall Board
wondered at the Open
meeting called for last Tues-
day evening, Only three
interested citizens besides
the members were present of
the total of 11 people. (Even
members of the Hall Baord
were absent)
James Glousher, chairman
was in charge of the meeting
which was opened by the
minutes being adopted as
read by the secretary, Mrs.
iknnald Haines,
Two contractors and car-
penters were present and
gave some estimates and told
how it could be done with
alternations and using large
frons. After Hutch discussion
it was decided to call another
meeting on Thursday,
Behind the scences

One of the businesses that my own
metabolism seems suited for is my second
career of theatre. Now there's a civilized
time scale. You usually start rehearsals
about 10 a.m. which still might be an hour
too early but sure beats 7 a.m. You finish
work about 10:30 or 11 p,m.- You can still
take a couple of hours to relax and get to bed
at the ideal bedtime of 2 a.m.
Unfortuantely, however, even then one is
lucky enough to be working the hours that
suit hien in theatre, the rest of the world
doesn't stop making its own demands on
time. The kids still keep getting up at 7. The
buses still conic early. The school bell still
goes at nine. And people telephone at 8:30
and think you're the laziest slob in the
country if you're still in bed. It ends up that
you burn the candle from both ends, working
late and getting up early. It's the worst of
Mil worlds and you get jumpy and grumpy.
So if you think the world looks dull and
serious through this column, blame it on that
blakncty-blank alarm clock.

Iii a half' yearly report,
Huron director John V. Penn
said "prevention works", He
added, "We have pro-
portionately less children in
our care than during 1977.
Counselling families before
problems become too critical
is far less costly in both
human and economic
teams.,,
Mr. Penn said, the name
change in 1977 Iron] Child-
ren's Aid to Family and
Chicken's Services signalled
the agency's committmcnt to
strengthening family life in
Huron County and prevent
family break'.hiwn.
About foster parents he
said, "Foster parents work-
ing with FACS social workers
continue to provide excellent
care to children. We continue
to look for those very special
families who can share their
home with a child for a
while."
"We particularly need
families willing to care for
older children - ages 11 to 15
years. Perhaps you could
consider this project for your
family or suggest it to a
friend;' If interested call our
Hone -finding department",
continued the Huron direct-
or.
The awards to the foster
parents were presented by
the president of the FCSA
board of directors Charlie
Thomas of Brussels assisted
by social worker Marion
Flindniarsh.
The guest speaker clinical
psychologist David Link
stressed the importance of
the honk in determining the
overall behaviour of children.
He continued, "Outside in-
fluences are important and
can he a real help, but we
niustremeniber that they are
not a substitute for adequate
parents."
He suggested children
should be taught to make
simple decisions for them-
selves at the age of three
years. They should be
rewarded for doing some-
thing right instead of trying
to catch them doing some-
thing wrong. They should
become responsible at an
early age and learn to accept
the consequences of their
own actions.
Link said, "All child be-
haviour is learned from day
to day in a natural way
without being aware of it.
Remember, habits that start
early die hard. Nothing fails
like failure."

The Far Side of the Street
By Bruce Hutchinson
This book is an account of
his lifetime, in rough frontier
society, in Canada's modern
cities, in foreign lands, and
often at the centre of great
events. As a member of the
Ottawa Press Gallery he
rubbed shoulders with many
politicians including
Canadian Prime Ministers
from Bennett to Trudeau.
These memories and the
author's reflections arc told
from the viewpoint of an
impartial spectator on "The
Far Side of the Street".

Poor weed control has cost
Huron County far'mer's at
least $1.8 million during the
;cast year, Weed control in
1978 was probably the poor-

this is clue to weather but the

Onc of the deepest satisl'aetio «111Wtit ing a
column 01' this kind is the knowledge that volt
are getting into print the angers and
frustrations of a lot of other people, %'Iwo
have no recourse lilt their resentments, and
consequently take them out 011 the 01(1 Maul
01' th'' 01(1 lady.
H \; .Io you know this? Wcll, beeaus,'
1)1X/pie write you letters eheering you on to
further attacks, and other people come up to
you, perfect strangers, shake hands warmly,
and say, "13y the Holy Ole .lunlpin! 13i11, you
really hit the nail on the head."
This can be a little disconcerting, as you
air Ile\el' quite sure which nail they are
referring 10. If the congratulator is a woman,
I smile weakly and change the subject.
13ecause sure as guns, (hough she 1hou!)h1
you were one of nature's noblemen for oilr
assault 011 male chauvinism last \leek, tins
turn on You like a snake when :she reads
tomorrow's paper. wills 1h.c column exposing;
female chauvinism.
Speaking recently to a class of potential
\wmitCI'S in a creative \\'1'itillg Course, I tried to
pass along the personal satisfaction one gels
fnonl this type of personal journalism.
I emphasized the "personal" satisfaction,
bccallSC there'S a lot more of that involved
than there is of the other kind, financial
satisfaction. Columnists and free-lance
\\'liters have no 1111 1011 working for them, nor
any professional associat1011, 115 nave
doctors, lawyers, teachers.
They have only their own talent and wit
and perseverance with which to penetrate
the thick heads and thicker skins of editors
and publishers.
But it's a great feeling when you vent your
wrath, say, about the rapaciousness of
mechanics, and you at'e button -holed six
tittles in the next three days by people with
horror stories about mechanics you can
scarcely believe,
Trouble is, they all want you to write
another column about mechanics, and put
some real pleat into it. This means, in effect,
that they would happily stand in the wings
and applaud when you were sued for libel.
Some readers would like you to be
constantly attacking whatever it is that they
don't like, Capitalist friends are aghast when
you refuse to launch an assault on capital
gains taxes. Welfarist friends think you are a
traitor and a fink when you won't attack the
government for not providing color TV for
everyone on the take.
I and not by nature an attacker, and I think
there is nothing more boring than a writer of
any kind who tries to make a career of being
a "hard-hitting" journalist.
Once in a while my gently bubbling nature
boils over. 'Throwing caution and syntax to
the winds, I let my spleen have a field day
and try to throw some sand in the grease
with which many aspects of society are
flying to give us a snow job. And that's one
oI'the finest paragraphs I've ever written, if
mixed metaphors are your bag.
Fail' r;a111C for the hard -hitter are: garage
mechanics, plumbers, postal workers,
supermarkets, civil servants, and politicians.
Most of them can't hit hark, and everybody
'lag's 111('111, except z'arage mechanics and
(heir wives, plumbers and their wives, etc.
Smaller Iry are doctors, lawyers, teachers,
used car salesmen. They all squeal like
dying rabbits when attacked, but nobody
pays much attention to then( except doctors
and their wives, etc. etc,
There are it few areas that even the
hardest -hitters avoid. When have you,
lately, read a savage attack on greedy
farmers, callous nurses, or unloving moth-
ers? And vet, there are lots of then( around.
One of these days, perhaps, one of these
hard-hitting writers will muster enough
guts, alter about five brandies, to launch an
all ''111 attack 011 the audacity of women,
ill 111 icing they're as good as I11C11. Boy, that
fellow cc ill learn what real hard-hitting is all
about.
Personally. I can't stay mad at anybody
long enough totted voice of the people. or a
public' watch -dog, or any of of those
obnoxious ('reatures who try to tell other
people how they should feel,
The only constant in my rage is the blatant
111anip1111111011 of self-seeking politicians who
will twist and warp and wriggle and squirm
and bribe for self -perpetuation in office.
Brit example of the moment is 'Trey
government in Ontario, which has called a
totally unnecessary election in that province
through sheer hunger for greater power.
Otherwise, I get a great deal more joy
from touching the individual life than
inflaming the masses. When 1 get a letter
from ati old lady in hospital, crippled with
arthritis, who has managed to get a chuckle
out of my column, it makes pie feel good.
Recently, 1 got a letter from a young Scot
who has immigrated to Canada. He says: "1
have learned more about Canada and
Canadians through reading your column than
all the accumulated wisdom from the
Canadian newsmagazines, novels and TV
programs I have absorbed,"
Now there is a man with his head screwed
aright. If 1, as a newcomer, tried to get niy
impressions of this country from news-
magazines and TV programs, I'd catch the
first boat or plane home.
So, l guess I'll just try to go on talking to
people, getting sore, having some fun,
looking for sympathy in the war between the
sexes, That's what life is all about, not
plumbers and politicians and other hor'r'ors
of that ilk,
main part is due to manage-
ment, in other words, most
of these weeds can be
c01111(.11ecl and they are
identified, if the right
herbicide is used at the
proper rate and time.
The 1978 crop is history,
but WC call Start 110\' 011 the
1979 crop by identifying
weed problems now and
RECORDING these pro-
blems.
Onc thing is certain, many
fields have weeds going to
seed this year. These seeds
am capable of costing us
more money next year. in
fact, it will take 2 or 3 years
of excellent weed control to
effectively reduce the
number of weed seeds that
are returned to the land in
1978.
Rootworm Problem
identified
Next year's corn rootworm
control can start now by
recording fields that have a
high adult count, Adult corn
mot worm lay their eggs in
August and September. Any
fielcjs_that have high adult
mints now should have a
root worm control sex year.
