Trustees John Henderson, Herb Turkheim and John Elliott all retained their seats on the board for another two years. John Henderson, who represents the townships fo Hullett and McKillop and the town of Seaforth, defeated his challenger, Marilyn Kunder of Seaforth, polling 1036 votes to Mrs. Kunder's 597 votes, John Elliott, of Blyth chairman of the board last year, easily defeated challenger Lloyd Barth of Blyth, receiving 973 votes to Mr, Barth's 248 votes. The trustee re- presents the village of Blyth and Morris and East Wawanosh Townships on the Huron County board of education. Lloyd Barth, a former teacher, is a member of the Renaissance group which campaigned for the removal of three novels from the Grade 13 English curriculum. Herb Turkheim was returned to the board after being challenged by Minnie Noakes, a former reeve of Hensall. Mr, Turkheim, who represents the township of Hay and villages of Hensall and Zurich, defeated Mrs. Noakes by 687 votes to 466 votes to retain his seat on the board of education. Hullett remains dry Hullett Township was only 3 per cent away from becoming a "wet municipality" Monday but because the vote was 57 per cent in favor instead of the required 60 percent, Hullett lost its chance to obtain a special occasion liquor licence for another three years. There were 340 people who voted in favor of the liquor vote and 255 who voted against. This means that there will now be no special permits in Auburn the village which is planning its 125th birthday celebration next year. in Hullett Township Toni Cunningham was elected deputy reeve w ith 360 votes defeating Greg Brandon who had a total of 235 votes. In West Wawanosh Township the race for council positions was very close. J.D. Durnin had 385 votes, Marybelle Cranston had 341 votes, Jim Aitcheson had 330 votes.

First and foremost Gordon Sanderson of Sound Office the London Free Press did a very provoking article on the , price of black gold. I am not talking about oil, but rich aromatic coffee, It would seem a lot of our complaints about high coffee prices are certainly justified and with a little digging by Sound Offstaff answers were hard to come by, After going all the way to Port Huron and buying var- ious forms of coffee, consid- Blyth 'WI Bring gas and bridge tolls and even duty as well as the exchange between our cur- rencies the shoppers still came out ahead, The biggest difference was in the price of A & P brand of coffee beans. In the t1S,it was $5.98 for three pound bag and the same product in London Ontario came to $10.69, A difference of $4.80, With there purchases in both Port Huron and London of the identical coffee brands plus all the extras figured in Mr. Sanderson still came out five dollars rich by buying coffee in the U.S. The moral of the tale could be that if you live close to the American border it would pay to shop for coffee there, The sad part about this is that we should by rights be supportin our Canadian economy by shopping here in Canada. It is unfortunate that we are being shafted and what is also frustrating is that the money is not going to a good cause. We, in our household, have come to consider coffee a treat only to be taken seriously and drunk with luxury in mind. lnstand coffee has not graced our pantry shelf for over a year now and its a treat when the beans arc pulled out of the fridge. carefully ground in a hand mill and drippd through a Hears about convention The Blyth Womens Insti- tute net on Nov, 2 with Mrs. L. Badley and Mrs. C, McDonald in charge as con- venors of agriculture and Canadian Industry. Mrs. Evalina Webster gave a report of the W. I. Annual Convention, held at the banquetiere just out of London on No 2 Highway, They had a very good attendance this year with 434 ladies present. Miss Angela Londesboro Armit was the guest speaker the first evening after the banquet. She spoke on the theme "The family in our changing society". On the following morning Mrs. Molly McGee, Director of home economics for all of Ont. was guest speaker. The Standing Committees gave their reports in the form of News Casts. Mrs. L. Badley then introduced Mrs. Mattie McGregor from Hen- sall who displayed lovely Christmas decorations and various knitted and croched crafts she had made. The ladies are all delighted with our new ten burner gas stove, which the Wonlcns Institute purchased and had installed by Grant Spading. The meeting was brought to a close with a lunch served by the hostesses. Mrs. R. Carter, Miss Cecile Marg- uette, Mrs. R. Schultz. Sunday School is booming I'he Sunday School staff met this past week for their regular business and training meeting. The exceptionally large enrollment in Sunday School this year has caused a bit of over crowding. To accomodate all the classes a discussion took place on moving some of the lcasses into the Sanctuary. The staff are very pleased with the great response of young people coming to Sunday School and par- ticularly the large teen-age class. Final plans were made for the annual fall crokinole family party on Friday. November 24th in the church hall and the Annual White Gift Service and Pageant to be held on Sunday, December 3rd at 10:30 a.m. in the church Sanctuary in j conjunction with the church service, The Congregational Life and Work Committee heard reports of all the thru-the- Metric girls meet The "Go Metric Girls" of Blyth III held meeting six in the form of a party in the auditorium of Blyth Public School on Thrusday, Nov, 9th The theme of the party was "Mother's Night Out", The girls and their mothers com- peted in games which in- cluded "Spell It Backwards" "Remember", and "The Teachers Cat" as well as volleyball. Following these activities a lunch of teabiscuits and Jam fruit bread, cheese and re- lishes with coffee and punch was served. A birthday cake was also part of the lunch week groups and Sunday Church School programs in the church. The committee were pleased with the fine response and the leaders and teachers that have conic forth to lead and serve in the different groups and classes After reviewing all groups and activities in the church the committee made their final plans for the "Old Fashioned Christmas Concert" to be held in the church on Friday, December 8th. All groups in the church will be presenting two numbers to the concert and word has also been received that Santa will be present with some goodies for the children. Further plans were also made for the Congregational Swimming Party and Fellow- ship night to be held in February and the Con- gregational Skating Party and Pot -Luke Supper to be held in March.

For the serious collector of everything that conte with reach who is slowly becoming bogged down in boxes of thing here is an answer. For every item that is saved there isa use or at least that is what I and told at honk when I try to throw out a pile of junk. Now there is help for those of you who save old ,tamps ' or envelopes for reuse: many groups take those stamps and turn them into wlll'thwllilt' projects for the needy people. Besides having local church groups saving stamps For the needy in other countries, the Humane Soc- iety of Ontario accepts used postage stamps and uses the money for the stamps to loud their shelters for needless anima Is. Another item you might be interested in is those little tags on the bread prouucts we buy. Those little plastic ;clips we so quickly threw may could be used by some groups for the purchasing of bibles or wheel chairs or even, I have heard, for a seeing eye dog for someone. With a little digging 1 ani sure that tetany of us could conic tip with worthwhile groups to donate our savings to so that others niay benefit from our conservation.

Dead elm Therefore choose life Behind the Scenes Ours is revolutionary age, however much we might wish it were not. It is an age full of promise if the forces of change are channeled ;,reatively, but an age of destruction and death if these forces are frustrated by narrow minds and hardened hearts. We are faced with an awesome choice: to continue with business as usual, allowing technology an increasing dominacce►ver human affairs, producing apocalyptic weapons, wasting and polluting irreplaceable natural resources, ignoring the plight of the poor, the hungry, the dispossessed. Or we can use our intelligence and technology to enrich human life, to eradicate disc ase and hunger, and to diminish the role of violence in •settling differen' es!between men and nations. Those berm and raised in the shadow of the atom bomb are aware of this choice with an immediacy denied their elders. The young desperately do not want to be the last generation of human beings on earth, and they see themselves as pawns in old feuds fought by old men. For them the choice we face is as clear as that set forth in the Biblical account of Moses' charge to the Israelites as they prepared to enter the Promised Land: "I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying his voice, and cleaving to him..." (Deuteronomy 30: 19-20). Our religious tradition in this country is life affirming, while never denying man's capacity for self destruction. This tradition is proclaimed in Canadian pulpits. But unless it is proclaimed in more individual lives, we may forfeit any claim we have on the future. Here is a force we have largely neglected, because the voice of conscience is call to repentance. Arnold Toynbee, an eminent historian of this century, maintained that civilizations are not destroyed from without but eventually turn Suicidal. He did not however regard suicide as inevitable. It is the result of choice. It may be that we in Canada, along with )thers, are faced with such a choice today. The United Church They'll be missed Hundreds of people throughout this area were indeed sorry to learn that the Belgrave Men's Choir has been disbanded. The music the rho it provided was always enjoyed wherever they appeared. Organized by the Rev. John Roberts several years ago, the group benefitted from Mr. Roberts' singular Welsh love of music. No doubt the members of the choir enjoyed their work as much as did their audiences. Men's choirs are few and far between, the remaining ones usually being' sponsored by an industrial firm of some sort as a recreational activitiy for its employees. As an interesting aside, we were both pleased and amused to watch the opening parade for the CNE in Toronto this year. Among the dozens of pipe bands marching down Univeristy Avenue, some of the best were those sponsored by the famous Scottish whiskey companies. As far as we -know the Canadian distilleries have yet to venture into the realm of music with their employees, so it has been left to men like John Roberts to bring us that particular sort of enjoyment which always accomapnied an evening with the Belgrave Men's Choir. (The Wingham'Advance-Times) by Keith Roulston Remembrance Day Remembrance Day has come and gone and with it the peculiar memories of the mixed up emotion of two world wars. One of the thoughts that came to mind during the ceremonies as 1 watched the on tef''viision on Satorday was the tremendous septic 411114y that calve upon Canadians in those day,. ; ''npat'ed to the factionalism we have toda', when our nation faces a threat to its survival. 011 1 know that memories are short and there probably was a lot of backbiting; and questioning back during the war years ton. 1 know that there was a conscription crisis and that English Cana- dians felt that French Canadians weren't doing their part to win the war. But I also know' that all across the country, including Quebec. hundreds of thousands of people were lining up at barricks to volunteer to SOW their eotlntry. Today the threat is no Tess real, even if it is less violent, yet Canadians are too wrapped up with their own petty griev- ances to conic to the aid of their country. Why? Well, perhaps it's a human failing that is is easier to unite pople in hate than it is in love, lig time of war we can forget our own petty differences with our neighbours and our own personal troubles and unite in hate against the enemy. Hitler provided a ',scat catalyst for unity. No platter what our problems were we could take them out in our hate for this man with no qualms from our conscience. We were right and just in our hatred. Wasn't this man trying to take over the world? Wasn't he a craven madman? Didn't we have to do something to stop him? Decisions arc so easy in a time of war. Everything is black and .white with no 'tampering shade of grey. Our government nu• churches, our media, our schools, all the support systems of society are united in one common goal. But love, now that's a much harder emotion to organize. What will save Canada today is love and respect, not hate and that's a tough commodity to bring to bear. There was an article in the newspaper the other day about a woman running for Parliament in the Ottawa area who is very pessimistic about the future of Canada. She was saying that English Canadians don't seem to want to give ani effort to trying to hold the country together. They don't realize that ever) time something insulting to French Canad ians happens in the rest of Canada it i; making it that much easier for the separatists to win over votes in Quebec. Perhaps there is little hope that Canada can survive. Separatists after all have a much more powerful weapon on their side than those in favour of unity. They have hate. They'd never admit it, of course, but if they win the battle to have Quebec separate from Canada it will be because o1' hate. They are winning v9tes in Quebec because of the hatred bei4built up in the hearts of French Canadians because of a century and more of bring either abused or ignored by English (_ aIlaulanS S. Although there were but a handful of English in the province compared to French, it was always the French who hall to walk the extra mile. The English gave the orders and the French jumped. And even the orders were in English. There's no doubt a good deal of the hatred and resentment built up in the minds of Quebecers has justification. But hatred is not a positive emotion but a negative one. it seems a poor foundation for a new nation. Of course the hatred that is helping to build that foundation comes not only within Quebec but from the rest of the country, Many Canadians have been openly hostile and derogatory toward French Canadians for years. Many other have become tired of the whole battle and seem to be wishing the Quebec would just get on with it and get out. Every tme one of these anti -Quebec statements is made more votes go Rene Levesque, Many have tried to argue the two sides of the separation issue in terms of rational and economic arguments but these have little chance of standing up against emotion, especially for an emotional people like the Quebecois. Hatred is what promotes Separation. All that it can be fought with is love. But love is a hard comodity to sell particularly to this "me generation" that has taken over Canada in the 1970's. Hatred is a selfish emotion while love is a giving; unselfish one. What people who promote a unified Canada are asking is that everyone try to understand the problems of the others around hint and to respect his dreams and his needs. What that means is a gigantic 24 -hour -a -day struggle to set aside our own petty grievances and to understand the other guy. Few people on wither side of the unity quesiton seen ready to make that sacrifice. In his famous speech in Washington Prime Minister Trudeau said that if Canada fell apart it would be a crime against humanity because we had not made this noble experiement work. If we cannot extend love and understanding to people in our own country, how can we ever expect of love and understnd people half -way around the world? If we can't build more love. and understanding of others, how many more millions of dead will we remember on future Remembrance Days, THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 15, 1978 — 5 Children prepare for Auburn's birthday 22 children between the ages of 8 and 13 years of age attended the first meeting of the Children's workshop held to help prepare for Auburn's 125 birthday party next year. Mrs. Ann St. Jean welcomed all and games were played and enjoyed. Two interesting films were shown, The Runt of the Litter and The Mitt, by Rev. Earl St. Jean. The children were divided into two groups, 8, 9, and 10 year olds with Mrs. St, Jean, Mrs. Bernadette Andrews and Mrs, Irene Millian. These leaders plan to make lawn ornaments and they will later, be sold to help finance other projects.

Marian Hindnlarsh, social worker and overall co- ordinator or the volunteer Christmas Bureau, explaines that, through the bureau, each Reedy family is sent a cheque of $S for each child in the family and if help is needed with Christmas din - 11e1', all 81110t1111 for the food is added to that cheque in proportion of the family's sire. The money that allows the bureau to do all this comes from the people in the com- munities of Huron County. Last year $7,000 wtis donated to help 180 families and this year the bureau hopes to raise about $9.000 as they expect to have many more families on their list. The co-ordinators under Mrs. Hindnlarsh in each of the five county towns, set up and num depots in their towns where toys. clothes, books, skates, tricycles and anything a family could use., may be. deposited by people. In Goderich the depot will be at The Salvation Army at 18 Waterloo Street from Dec. 4 to 8. All recipient families will be contacted between December 11 and 15 and the parents of the families ilial' then go to the depot in their town and select Christmas gilts for their children.

Over half the children in the families being helped are teenagers, says Mrs. Hind - marsh, so 1U01;e than jtiSI toys are needed. Too often people think of Christmas is only for children and they forget the older ones in the family, she says. As a co-ordinated effort. The Christmas Bureau has been in operation for about seven scars now. Before this. several volunteers would pitch in and help pack Christmas parcels for fami- lies in need and then, volunteer Dorothy Scott would visit every know n needy family in the county, taking the parcels to them. The Christmas Bureau, because it is now a co- ordinated effort, saves dupli- cation of work, explains Mrs, Hindnlarsh. The families who need help get help and they also get what they need. Families who are in need al Christmas can either be referred to the Christmas Bureau or they can 00111801 the bureau directly them- selves. Letters are sent out to all agencies working with families in order to get referrals. Letters are also sent to service clubs and other groups asking for help or donations, "People have been very generous lvith their dona- tions and the service clubs and church groups have been very good too,,' says Mrs. Hindnlarsh. Yarn is available this year from Dianne Armstrong and the bureau is asking that people do some volunteer knitting for the depots this Christ nuts. 11' anyone wants to give a donation of money, it :',,1 he mailed or taken to Fa Wily and Children's Ser ices, Christina!, Inas Bureau. 4(1 (UlucIi sIer Terrace In Gndcrich, If 000 1 m Gonna Gd B Supply r Of flute a BoltIN HOW MANY TIMES DID YOU SAY THAT LAST YEAR1 now is THF TIE • ASSORTMENTS LARGE & SMALL • STORAGE TRAYS & CABINETS • PACKAGED NUTS, BOLTS & WASHERS • GRADE NO. 5 • BUY DIRECT — SAVE! • Call (no obligation) TRANS CONTINENTAL BOLT CO.

Renovations to start at hospital The long awaited reno- vation project at Clinton Public Hospital started this week. Rratt Construction Co, Ltd of London has the $125,000 contract to upgrade the 1947 wing of the hospital to meet current lire standards. 'I'hc upgrading will include replacing 'ceiling tiles, put- ting in a fire sprinkler system and adding about 1,000 square feet to a new storage area, The work is going to mean some patients in the hospital will have to be moved. During construction, 14 beds upstairs will have to be closed aid about the same number of beds downstairs, but this won't be done all al the same time. Clinton I'u'ilic Hospital was one of the smaller hospitals which the pro- vincial ministry of health tried to close. However, the threatened closure was halt- ed by a public protest. "I'Irc provincial government is paying about two -third of the costs for the current renovation project to the hospital.

Not a chance. it's alh.,'ays shoving a ham-fisted hand into the delicate machinery of our daily lives. TodaI received a summons to appear in court in the city to answer a charge of illegal parking, with the the "to wits" and "whcreases" and threats that accompany such blackmail. And that's what it is—blackmail. 1 hay • been in the city for four months, 1 cl own a car in my own name, an.! 1 t ty was not hanging around eisreputablc Parliament St. on that occasion or tory other, with or v• ithout a car. Oh , but I have a ,:;iuicc. If I don't want to navel to the city .11 considerable expense to plead i„nocent, or have a lawyer represent me at considerably more expcns, 1 can just plead guilty by mail and send along $7.80. But dammit, 1'01 innocent. So what do I do? Lose a day's pay, spend the money to get there and hack, just to prove to some frumpy traffic covrt that I'm as pure as the driven snow? Or take the chicken way out, and pay the rap? That's blackmail, brother, A month ago, in came a bill from National Revenue, stating that I owed them several hundreds of dollars, plus interest.. No explanations, just the bt Id statement, accompanied by the usual dire warnings of the consequences, if i dont ante up: More blackmail. 1 don't mind paying my bills. Well, 1 mind, but 1 pay them. But these mindless, in human, computerized attempts to make me feel like a criminal merely su-cce,t in making me sick. Down in Ottawa, the v'a1111: , and %%Taving and ducking and bobh.;►g go on, ministers fall like autumn leaves, and nobody lets the left side of his mouth know what the right side is saying. Trudeau, after losing a dozen able ministers in the last half-dozen years, totters along with a turncoat Tory, Jack Horner, insensitive arrogancies like Otto Lang, and political retreads like Bryce Mackasey, who, as 1 recall "solved" the last postal strike in only six weeks. And His Eminence floats among these lesser fish like an octopus past his prime, still dangerous, still slippery, but given to Smiles '1'wo friends arrived at the county club for a morning mund of golf.

And as if the general state of affairs weren't enough to give me abig pain in, the arm, there's the local. My. wife "affer lugging her smashing new expensive white coat for about 10,000 miles this summer, in and out of 20 hotels, on and off countless buses; and boats, trains and planes, has lost the blasted thing in her own home town. My daughter, with three' degrees, is t i. as ► file clerk, an honorable vocation, lrecly one to make the creatiave throb. My son-in-law is looking for a job, a rather harrowing business these days. only thing they're not out of is energy and fiendish ability to dismantle things that electt i , engineers would he afraid to touch. I hit\ a brand.new set of gold clubs 'illi which I can hit the hall twelve feet. On a clear dad . With a strong tail -wind. I tell ycz, b'ys, if it weren't for all them old people, I'd he tempted to pack it all in and head for Floridy, and sit on a bench in the sun, mumbling my gums. But I guess things could be worse. I've got enough money to pay that $7,80 blackmail for a non -parking parking ticket. 1 can fight the Feds on that mysterious assessment. can live without the post office, though they sure know how to hurt a syndicated columnist, dependent on the mails. And just maybe, when the dollar has hit 75 cents, unemployment has hit 10 per cent and inflation settles in two figures. we'll get sore enough to kick those tired flacks out of Ottawa. My wife will find her coat. I found my pants last year, after they'd been missing four months, They were 120 miles away, in the hall closet of my father-in-law. And there was a twentydollar bill in the pocket. My daughter .will get a job, probably as head of the CBC. My son-in-law will get a job, probably as his wife's copy and coffee boy. My grandboys will develop into great engineers. Or form a wrecking company and get rich knocking things apart. Maybe I'll sti ck'cr out a few months yet. But 1 wish I could do it like the ground -hogs --just fatten up, crawl into a hole and sleep until spring. West Wawanosh Morris Poll 1 2 3 4 A.
