School budget up Area beekeepers meet
13 per cent over 1978
Huron County public school supporters
are facing an 8.4 per cent increase in taxes
under the 1979 budget adopted by the
county board of education.
At Thursday's meeting of the board, a
budget was passed calling for expenditures
of $23.6 million - an increase of over 13 per
cent from the 1978 budget.
Trustees learned at the meeting that the
strike by secondary school teachers during
the 1978 school year helped to cushion the
impact of the tax increase on county
taxpayers this year. The money saved from
teacher salaries will be applied against the
funds required from municipalities.
The average homeowner in Huron County
living in a house assessed at $3,000 will face
a tax increase of $18 to $20 in 1979. County
municipaliteis haven't yet calculated the
complete impact on individual taxpayers.
The major expense under the 1979 budget
is instruction costs - an expenditure of
$17,260,045, which is a 15.6 per cent
increase over last year. Plant operations and
maintenance costs have increased by 17 per
cent to $2,093,000.
Other major expenditures include tran-
sportation, which increased by 9.2 per cent;
tuition fees to other boards, a 6.9 per cent
increase and business adminstration costs,
up 3.6 per cent.
A more detailed article on the school
board's 1979 budget will appear in next
week's paper.
Beekeepers from Huron, Perth and North
Wellington Counties heard about new
beekeeping methods and news about their
industry when they held their annual
meeting in Belgrave Tuesday night.
Speaking at the meeting were President
Murray Watkins of St. Marys, Phil Burke,
the provincial apiarist and David Boyes from
the University of Guelph.
Professor Burke spoke about changes in
the industry and on things that can be
harmful to bee colonies. He said that in 1978
there were a total of 32,800 colonies
inspected in Ontario. Of those 566 were
infected with American Foul Brood disease.
In Huron there were some 1900 colonies
inspected but only eight of those had the
disease.
"We're fortunate we've been able to
maintain them this close for several years,"
Professor Burke said.
He told the beekeepers that the 1978 crop
of honey was pretty well committeed with
really only about four more months to this
selling year. He said that the price of honey
had gone up and that 1978 had been the
biggest crop ever at 67 million pounds.
Professor Burke told the meeting that as
of January 1 next year containers for honey
will be in metric sizes. The new sizes will
include any net weight up to and including
150 grams, 250 grams, 375 grams, 500
grams and 750 grams, 1 kilogram, 1.5
kilograms, 2 kilograms, 3 kilograms, and 5
kilograms.
All bulk honey containers will be 7
kilograms, 15 kilograms and 30 kilograms;
and any larger containers the net weight of
which is to be measured in multiples of 1
kilogram,
David Boyes spoke to the group on spring
management and on the two queen system.

Agriculture Minister
Eugene Whelan today an-
nounced a change in the
interest rates charged by the
Farm Credit Corporation.
The interest rate for loans
under the Farm Credit Act
and the Farm Syndicates
Credit Act will be 10% per
cent.
"These rates are reviewed
twice a year and fixed on
April 1 and October 1 for the
following six months. the
rates are based on the yields
on government bonds," said
Mr, Whelan.
The rate for. the period
ending on March 31, 1979,
was 10 per cent for loans
under the Farm Syndicates
Credit Act,
He said that the increase is
the result of continued
upward pressure on interest
rates in the Canadian
economy. Today's change is

from Me to You
A good
BY RHEA HAMILTON
From back in my memory I
only have vague notions
about much of the history of
our country Canada.
Although for years I always
frowned at the patriotic pro-
paganda that our American
counter -parts were subjected
to I must admit there was a
certain amount of envy when
an American companion
would know immediately
historical facts and
interesting tales about his
country and the brave people
who settled there.
But the future looks like it
will change for many
Canadians. After spending a
week in the U.S. it was with
great relief and surprise that
I found out that for all my
grumbling about our CBC
programming 1 have never
been so happy to see
Canadian shows. Although
they have a tendency to be a
mite boring and draggy,
there is very little "talking
down" to the viewers of the
program. It is as though the
CBC or the Canadian govern-
ment is anxious to have us
think and operate above the
grade four level that a great
too many shows tend to cater
to.
Lions help buy
band instruments
At the last meeting of the
Londesboro Lions, presided
over by Lion President Bill
Bromley, the executive for
the coming year was
nominated.
It was moved by the club to
donate $200 toward
purchase of more instru-
ments for the Hullett School
Band. This would be in
addition to the $500 donated
one year ago for the same
purpose.
A tentative date for the
annual bike-a-thon was
scheduled for the last week
of June. It was suggested
that at the same time we try
to arrange a children safety
Rodeo under the guidance of
Elmer the Safety Elephant or
possibly the O.P.P. Proceeds
to be used for community
work.
The Lions Club voted to
talk to the Hullett Rec.
Committee re garding more
screening at the Ball Park
futher to work done last year
by both parties.
Guests present at the
meeting were Lion Don
Couglin and Lion Henry
Lachnor from Howick Club.
Lion Don is running for
District Deputy Governor for
District A.9, this coming
year and was asking for
support at the voting for
officers.
Lions would like to remind
residents of Blyth, Clinton,
and Londesboro that the
paper pickup for all locations
is held the first Saturday of
each month.
The next meeting will be
held on Thursday, April 12
.and will be a fellowship
meeting.
Plan auction
Bill Amos, Chairman of
the Board for Huron Country
Playhouse announced today
that Glen Wood, the innova-
tive designer and developer,
has agreed to be convener for
the Third International Art
Auction to be held at the
Huron Country Playhouse,
Sunday, July 29th.
Mr. Wood is the owner
and developer of numerous
commercial properties in re-
novated historical buildings,
including the Talbot Inn,
London, and the Festival
Square, Stratford.
He studied interior design
at the prestigious Parsons
School of Design in New York
City, then began his career
with Simpson's in London.
Ten years ago he started his
own store, Tradewinds, sel-
ling china and glassware. In
1976 his passion for renova-
ting and restoring old buil-
dings led him to buy the
Belevedere Hotel in down-
town London and turn it into
the beautiful Talbot Inn.
Mr. Wood's most recent
project is another renovation
of older buildings in Cam-
bridge, Ontario.
The International Art Auc-
tion helps to raise funds for
the Huron Country Play-
house, as well as give the
opportunity to the people of

THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 18, 1979 —;3
look at our history
Sunday night anyone who
was fourtunate enough to see
the first in the two part series
about the infamous Louis
Riel got a hearty sample of
the Canadian history that
many of us believe to be
non-existent.
For me Riel was a fuzzy
figure from grade 5 history
who was executed for
treason. But the program
produced about Riel was not
boring or draggy. It was
exciting and although Louis
was considered a rebel by
anyone's standards, he came
off with my sympathy as well
as my pride.
How could such a colourful
character have escaped my
attention all these years?
Somehow reading about his
brief escapades in school
texts did not lead me on to
read more and discover just
what the situation was in the
west during those years
around Confederation.
Louis Ric! was an educated
man who believed that the
expansion of Canada would
injure the Metis people and
he strove to correct the
problem. Riel was not really
a traitor to Canada. He
believed in Confederation
but wanted a fair shake for
his people and tried to set up
a provisional government.
Although he was fairly
elected three times to parlia-
ment, he was not allowed to
represent his people.
Riel's tactics were shrewd
and his goals clear until he
became clouded with know-
ledge of his power and his
goal became confused with
evangelical concerns.
Television is a wonderful
medium for teaching and
having viewers retain a
certain amount, If more of
our Canadian History could
be presented to us in the
same fashion there would
surely be more fire instead of
apathy over our country,
If you missed the TV series
don't disapair, there is a
theatrical release available
as well as audiovisual aids
being developed to use as
guides in the schools when
the film is shown to students.
Raymond Cloutier who
plays Riel does the job
convincingly and I hope we
see some more of his talent
in the future.

admiring the spring
blossoms and writing in my

about the food and fine
weather and of course the
fine people, But on' the way
home I realized that many
are not as fortunate as we
were to find• a warm escape
at this time of year. So to
avoid any remarks 1 will only
say for those of you who
could not escape, we will all
hope for warmer weather to
hurry here.

More than guilt feelings
Maybe it's time we had a moratorium on pictures of starving
children.
Few organizations do this form of fund raising more effectively than
World Vision. With professional skills, they constantly remind us of the
plight of the rest of the world.
Recently in the United States, they put on a five hour hunger
telethon. About a third of the time, the TV tube pictured men, women,
and children, starving, racked by disease, and gaunt from
malnutrition, their personal horizons narrowed to day-to-day survival.
We're sure it was successful but I'm sorry that they had to use that
method. God knows there's enough suffering in the world, that any
help at all is worthwhile. But it achieved its goal by making us feel
guilty, then urging us to relieve our guilt by sending cheques to World
Vision so that we could feel good, although we continued to increase
the economic chasm separating us from the people we thought we were
helping. Much more than that is needed.
Ironically, an incident on that television program showed us the
implications of a better way of helping and giving.
A village woman brought her two sons to a children's hospital in
Dacca, Bangladesh. The doctors cared for her sons -- they also urged
the woman to take their "medicine for no more babies". They told her,
and she knew as well as they did, that Bangladesh had too many
people for too little food.
She was confused and frightened. For centuries, her people : valued
large families. Children meant more hands to work in the fields.
Children were security in old age. Suppose she took their birth control
pills, and her two sons died? Then she would end her life as an old
woman with downcast eyes and outstretched hand prowling the streets
for garbage and handouts, slowly starving to death.
But the doctors promised they would do their best to keep the sons
alive. And so far, they had done a good job. So, hesitantly, the woman
began to take the medicine. Hesitantly, she entered into a pact with
the doctors.
The pros's and con's of birth control methods -- or even of. birth
control itself -- are not the point. That woman entered into a new
covenant, a fragile agreement based on trust. Her world and ours
became linked. We took on a responsibility to her.
And that respnsibility for her goes far beyond doctors and pills. Now
we have to be sure, for example, that our trade policies don't turn her
into a beggar anyway, by driving her family off their tiny farms. We
have to open our markets to goods her sons may someday produce. We
have to keep her sons from being killed in a war fought with our
exported armaments.
Suddenly, It's not their plight, but ours too. For having entered into

Behind the Scenes
by Keith Roulston
Riel
They could hardly have foreseen it, I
guess, all those men of power of the young
new nation as they sat in Ottawa in 1873.
How could John A. MacDonald and his
cronies know that in an insignficant
skirmish in the new teritory they had
bought from the Hudson's Bay Company
thousands of miles away they were seeing
the seeds planted of future destruction for
their country.
The timing of C.B.C.'s major production
Riel could hardly have been better. The
two night drama about the happenings in
Manitoba in 1873 and Saskatchewan in
1885 has shown us that you can't turn your
back on history. It lives on, festering inside
people to re-emerge decades later with
saddening consequences.
There may have been trouble between
the French and English factions in Canada
anyway, but the roots of the current split
between the two sides can be traced to the
Riel rebellions and the consequences. As
Sir John says in the first episode of the Riel
programs, Riel and Thomas Scott (the man
he sentenced to death for treason) had
become symbols and symbols have a way
of living on long after people.
It is ironic that Sir John A. MacDonald,
the man who dreamed of a nation from sea
to sea and who fought all the odds to bring
that dream about should also be respon-
sible for beginning us down the long road
that someday soon may see the destruction
of that land from sea to sea. If MacDonald
had been able to handle the crisis better,
perhaps we wouldn't be facing such a crisis
today. If he had understood Riel better,
had realized he was right, our history
might have been changed.
The Riel rebellion shows the beginnings
of two of our greatest problems in Canada
today. On one hand, there was the French
versus English problem. Riel, Gabriel
Dumont and the rest of the Metis
population were part Indian but spoke
French, To the Quebecois they were
brothers and symbols of what the English
would do to French Canadians. To man in
English Canada they were a hindrance to
settling the West, a danger that another
Quebec could rise in the West to plague
them as the French province had in the
east.
But Riel in Manitoba was fighting not as
French against English but as a Westerner
fighting for a fair deal from easterners.
Riel and his people were simply ignored by
the new Canadian government in Ottawa
after the Hudson's Bay company sold the
territory. It was as if they didn't exist.
Their land was being given away to new
settlers from, the east. A government
thousands of miles away simply couldn't
comprehend their problems. That too was
to become a famliar refrain throughout
Canadian history.
The tragedy, of course, is that we should
still be cursed by this happening of nearly a
centur .y ago. On one side we have the
Orange movement in Ontario which
insisted on vengeance for Scott.whom they
considered had been murdered. On the
other side nationalists in Quebec, fed by
the church, kept alive the ill feeling bred by
the treatment of Riel. it helped keep the
church in an important place in Quebec
society to be possessor of the nationalist
cause in Quebec. The one outlet for bright
young men in Quebec was the church and
so the young agressivc nationalists turned
the church into a place where distrust of
the English, not love of one's brothers, was
fostered.
Meanwhile, across the border in Ontario
distrust of anything French or Catholic was
fostered by the Orange Order, a group that
for violence, disorder and bigotry could
only be compared to the Klu Klux Klan in
the U.S. The Orangemen of the day were
not the rather tame Oraneemen of our
lifetime but people who influenced elect-
ions through threats and very real violence,
They were powerful in numbers and a foe
that a politician like MacDonald didn't
want to cross,
Times have changed. The power of the
Church in Quebec is no longer as
important, yet the distrust and the
nationalism the church promoted has
grown more powerful now in the hands of a
new generation of young activists. The
power of the Orange movement in the rest
of Canada has faded, but not the hate and
mistrust they instilled in a good portion of
the population.
Through it all comes the other great
tragedy of Canadian history: our lack of
cultural sovereignty. For most of the first
century of Canada's existence we ignored
our history, because we didn't promote
Canadian books and movies and television.
If we had had the Riel story told fairly to a
wide audience 50 years ago, perhaps
things would now be different.
The power of mass media to promote
understanding is great. We have seen that
in the U.S. with the Roots series. Hopefully
Riel will do that in Canada. Yet we have
waited for 100 years before people realized
that it is essential that we use that power to
try to promote understanding in this vast
country, to override the petty hatreds of
petty men isolated from the rest of the
country in little pockets here and there.
Now we have finally discovered the power
of the media for good, but it may be too late
to save the country.

Comes" He went through
the account of the first Easter
and said as morning came to
the bewildered and sad dis-
ciples with the joy of the
resurrection, so morning
comes to us today. He spoke
of how morning comes to the
dark world in which we live
as well as to us as individuals
engaged in life's struggles.
The Christian life is not
easy, he said and it isn't
always filled with sunshine
but long ago Jesus said "in
the world you will have
trouble, but, cheer up 1 have
overcome the world".
He closed by saying that
God is with us in our dying as
well as in our living. He is
the one who gives us life, and
the one in whom we find life.
The choir sang two
anthems "Open the Gates of
the temple", and "Easter
Bells are chiming," The
service closed with the
singing of the hymn "cele-
brate the Easter fullness",
Greeting the congregation
were Jim Jamieson and
Harry Snell, Ushers were
Tom Pollard, Darrell Shob-
brook, Greg Andrews and
Dan Lear, Easter lilies from
Burns U.C.W. and

Audrey Thompson.

Sunday when Messengers,
Explorers, Cubs and Scouts

leaders.
A congregational meeting
was called after the service
when it was moved to extend
a call to Rev. Robert W. Scott
to be pastor of Londesboro
church beginning July 1st

The congregation also

Voting :
New voting rules will make
it easier for all qualified
electors to cast ballots in the
31st Federal Election on May
22nd.
Changes in the rules
covering proxy voting and
advance polling arc among
those designed to make
voting possible and more
practical for many of
Canada's estimated 14.9
million cle giblc electors in
this election,
"The ill, handicapped and
aged, certain students and
workers away from home,
and voters unable to vote
because of tcmproary
absence are among those
who will benefit," says Jean -
Marc Hamel, Canada's Chief
Electoral Officer.
The changes were made in
amendments to the Canada
THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 18, 1979 — 11
new rules easier
Elections Act and were
passed by Parliament in
December, 1977,
Some of the important
chagnes are:
1. At least one advance poll
with "level access" for the
handicapped must be set up
in each urban area of an
electoral district, An elector
entitled to vote at an advance
poll may, if
the poll doesn't have level
assess, obtain a transfer
certificate from his or her
Returning Officer and vote at
another poll that does offer
level access. A notice of an
advance poll must state if
level access is available and
explain to voters that trans-
fer certificates may be
obtained.
2. Voting at advance polls --
for those unable to vote on
election day -- formerly was
possible on two days only.
Under the new provisions,
advance polling will be
spread over three days --
between noon and 8 p.m. on
Saturday, May 12th,
Monday, May 14th, and
Tuesday, May 15th. To vote
at an advance poll, you have
only to sign your name •- not
take an affidavit as in the
past.
3. In a general election,
voters who are unable to vote
on election day or at the
advance polls, may now vote
in the office of the Returning
Officer, Such voting will be
done noonto 6 p.m. and 7
p.m. to 9 p.m. on any day
beginning Monday May 7th
and ending on May 18th,
excluding Sundays and any
advance polling day.
4, Proxy voting is extended
to members of air crews,
forestry crews and
topographical survey crews,
and to trappers. Such
electors, along with fisher-
men, mariners, prospectors,
whose who are ill or physical-
ly disabled, and students
away from home during
academic terms, may now
arrange to vote by proxy.
In proxy voting, an elector
who cannot cast a ballot in
person on election day or at
any other of specified times,
may appoint another
elector to vote in his or her
place.
If you wish to vote by
proxy, then either you or
your proxy must apply in
person to the Returning
Officer for a proxy cer-
tificate.

If you are applying for
proxy voting because of ill-
ness or physical incapacity,
you must present a cer-
tificate from a legally
qualified medical
practitioner, If you are a
student, absent from your
polling division during an
academic term, you can
apply to vote by proxy but
must have a statement from
tie registrar of your college
or school,
5, A qualified elector whose
name is not on the pre-
iminary list of voters may
now easily get on the revised
list. This can be done by
contacting the Returning
Officer prior to May 4th.
6, Special provisions for
temporary workers away
from home have been ex•
tended to include students
who are gainfully employed
between their academic
terms. In the past, such
students could'nt vote if they
were away from their
ordinary places of residence.
Now, they can vote in the
electoral district where they
are working if they have
arrived in the electoral
district by May 1st and take
action to have their names
placed on the voters list
during the period of revision
May 2nd to May 4th.
Several other rule changes
will apply to this election as a
result of amendments to the
law,
Electors will not longer
be required to show their
occupation on election docu-
ments.
Ordinary polls on election
day will be open 9 a.m, to 8
p.m. local time. Previously,
they opened at 8 a.m, and
closed at 7 p.m., standArd
time. All references td:#imes
in the new law mean "local
time",
An elector whose right to
vote is challenged at a poll --
because his or her identity is
questioned - may now pro-
duce documents to prove
identity. An oath is no longer
automatically required.
Employers and employees,
under new rules, may jointly
agree to waive the provision
giving employees four con-
secutive hours time off with
'pay to vote, Another rule
change brings hourly -paid
workers under the time -off -
work provisions, Still another
broadens the time -off pro-
vision to include all tran-
sportation companies, not
just railways and their
employees, as was the case
in previous elections,

"Were you there"?, "Ye

"Christ the Lord Is Risen

The order of service fol-
lowed the first presented in
the "Service Book". The
Scripture readings from
Isaiah and John were re-
lative to the resurrection, as
were the hymns.
'If Christ was not raised
from the dead', 'if we live for
the life only', then we are to
be pitied,
The resurrection comes at
a point of crisis in the life of
the disciples. The more they
saw the higher their hopes
grew. With Jesus' death all
that had peaked; apparently
crashed.
The men on the road to
Emmaus said "We had
hoped". When all was
doomed - then the
Resurrection.
Mr, Roberts said "We are
living in a world facing
crises". More face crisis
than peace. Our hopes rise
then crash. He referred to
the leader of Pakistan in
whom the people had high
hopes which recently fell and

the deep concern over the
Harrisburg event.
The Resurrection is not an
isolated event, not cut off.
The New Testament connects
the Resurrection with the
end of the world,
This is the real gospel, The
Resurrection makes the dif-
ference, not in terms of
Harrisburg, but in the Resur-
rection of Jesus from the
dead.
If Christ had not risen,

the "Agricrew Project" and
making it available to farm-
ers in Huron County. This
program has been designed
to provide a practical work
experience for young people
during the summer of 1979.
As a part of an "Agri -
crew", team members will
be placed on farms and asked
to do jobs that may not have
been done because of the
volume of regular farm work.
In addition, crew members
could be hired to assist with
harvest during seasonal
periods. An Agricrew could
also be hired to help Agri-
cultural Societies prepare
their grounds for rural
community fairs.
Each Agricrew will work as
a team (4 crew members and
a foreman) and will not be
subdivided. Agricrew mem-
bers must be over 15 years of
age as of May 1st, 1979 and
will be selected on their
willingness to perform agri-
cultural manual labour,
Employers are to be engager
in farming full time and will
be required to sign a work
agreement indicating work to
be done, method of payment

Junior Agriculturalists
available again
This year the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food will once again be
sponsoring the Junior Agri-
culturalist Program during
the summer of 1979. The
program is designed to pro-
vide a practical learning
experience for young people
from non-farm homes who
have a serious interest in
agriculture, and (dm have
had no experience working
on a farm.
As a Junior Agriculturist,
a person will be placed on a
selected commercial farm,
where he/she will perform
regular activities relative to
that farm operation. In
addition, an appreciation of
rural life through living with
a farm family, and through
participating in the local 4-H
and Junior Farmer programs
and in other rural activities,
The prospective Junior
Agriculturalists will be either
boys or girls 16 or 17 years
of age and must be in good
physical and mental con-
dition in order to withstand
the vigorous physical effort.
Selection will be based in
part of their reasons for
being interested in agricul-
ture, and their plans for
further education
The interested host farm-
ers are to be commercial
farms, with the operator
engaged in farming full time,
They must be interested in
helping inexperienced young
people to develop the skills
required on a farm and are
expected to have the ability
to work well with and super-
vise young people. Host
farmers must also provide
suitable accommodation for
the Junior Agriculturalist
during his/her stay on the
farm.
Each Junior Agricul-
turalist will receive a training
allowance of $18 per day on a
six day week. $6 of this will
be provided by the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food; the host farm will
provide $6 per day in cash, as
well as supplying room and
board worth $6 per day.

A WIND FROM NOWHERE

Here are a group of stories
that involve magic. Tamsin,
the heroine, has some very
peculiar and unwelcome
experiences after she picked
and later dropped an odd-
looking fungus. Witches,
wizards, enchantresses and
mermaids and cats are in-
volved. Of course cats are
more than a match for the
others.
THE SMILE OF THE

In Florence when Juliana
was just 17, an unexpected
enquiry led to a wild and
sometimes dangerous adven-

had to travel across France
during the Revolution and
flee to England. There she
met seemingly uncaring re-
latives. An inheritance adds
to Juliana's problems.

Sugar & Spice
by Bill Smiley
Right from the first, 1 knew it was a day,
"1 shooda stood in bed," as a third-rate
pugilist, Kingfish Levinsky, once said after
being flattened by the great heavyweight
Joe Louis, in round one,
Got up, took a tug at the strap of my
wristwatch to take it off and wash; broke
the strap, Nothing serious. Cheap plastic
junk. But it turned out to be applied to the
watch by one of those unseen geniuses who
lose one of your socks in the wash, and
produce four extra beer bottles when every
case of empties is full,
I'II probably never be able to wear the
watch again, unless I glue it to my wrist,
Serves me right. I hadn't a watch for 30
years, and never felt the need for one. But
my wife bought me this one last summer,
in the duty-free shop at London airport.
And now I find myself neurotically flipping
up my cuff and glaring at the hair on my
left wrist, like all the other anxiety hounds
Win the country who are not going anywhere,
don't need to know the time, but are
constantly flipping up their arms like
trained seals and looking at their watches.
Who needs a watch: Life is going quickly
enough, without the evidence on a little
dial. The very word has nothing but
unpleasant connotations. "Watch what
you're doing there, Watch out. Watch your
step. Watch the late movie. Watch your
wife, Watch that guy hanging around your
daughter. Watch what you say in mixed
company."
O.K. I shrugged off the watch. Went
down and got my breakfast. Usually, it's
toast and tea. This particular morning, 1
had more time, so I fixed the works: real
coffee, bacon, fried bread and a nice sloppy
fried egg on top of the bread. A drooly
great breakfast,
Thought I'd cat in my favorite chair in
the living room, and read my morning
paper in the spring sunshine pouring in the
window. So I put my grub on the kitchen
counter and started cutting the fried bread
and egg into bite -sized pieces, so that 1'd
need only one hand to eat.
Something skidded, The plate slipped off
the counter, sprayed grease all over the
front of my pants, and smashed to
smithereens on the floor. I emitted a most
unladylike few words, salvaged the bacon
from under the sink and started cleaning
up,
Have you ever tried to wipe up just one
lousy semi -fried egg from a kitchen floor?
It reminded me of the old days, when I'd
drop a quart milk bottle and sponge up
what seemed like a gallon of milk, And it
was the first time I'd had to change my
pants since 1 was about two,
Well, I should have stopped right there,
stripped to the skin, and gone back to bed
for the day. But, as faithful readers know, I
believe that bad things come in threes, and
then you have a good streak.
As it happened, 1 was going to buy a car
from a chap that day. With impeccable
logic, I reckoned one more minor disaster
would occur, and I'd be home free for a
while. If it didn't, the car would be a
lemon, to complete the trio, and I wouldn't
buy it,
It did, The minor disaster, I sailed out of
the house, figuring I'd slip and break an
elbow, or the car wouldn't start. Nothing of
the sort, Stuck my hand in my coat pocket.
No keys. No car keys, No house keys. And
I'd left the latch on. Stood at the back door,
ding-donging like crazy for five minutes.
Blasted if I was going to climb in the cellar
window and wreck my second pair of pants.
Finally, the Old Lady appeared. She'd
been in the bath tub. She was not ecstatic
with our marital state, Grease all over the
kitchen, my watch busted, and the second
last set of plates also busted. She felt like
busting me,
Anyway, I finally set off with a Tight ,
heart. The three baddies had happened,
and the rest of the day would be glorious,
the car a winner, and everything golden.
Well, you probably know the rest, Late
for work. Thirteen decisions to make at
same. A hair in my grilled cheese at lunch.
Lukewarm coffee, Banker who had prom-
ised me the loan out to lunch for two hours,
Tried to sneak in a quick visit to doctor for
allergy shots; and he forgot I was there for
an hour.
Late for my appointment to meet car
seller. We'd both forgotten to pick up the
safety check certificate, Rushed off to the
garage, telling car seller and wife to wait
for me at licensing bureau,
Arrived at garage breathless, but still
time, Nobody home but gas pump jockey.
Mechanics out jogging. Jogging! Phoned
license bureau to tell short, ill-tempered
seller with beard to hang on. Th ey hadn't
seen him since I left. Wait 25 minutes.
Sweaty, gasping mechanics arrive, sign
certificates,
Rushed back to licence bureau, No sign
of car seller, inside or out. Got all papers
ready. Waiting, fuming, inside, then
outside. "Turkey's probably gone to the
bank or something."
At five to five, phoned his apartment. He
was there. He and his wife had waited
OUTSIDE the license bureau (not enough
brains to stay in and keep warm), had
decided I'd changed my mind and wouldn't
be back, and were at the moment packing
to go to the city for a week. With my car.
And the license bureau closed at five.
Tottered home in a daze, expecting the
house to be burned down and my wife
pregnant. Or vice versa, the way things
were going. And then I started to laugh.
And laugh. I had to be administered a
strong dose of cough medicine to cool me
out.
Somebody once said that the Lord works
in mysterious ways. He sure does. Wonder
what He had against me that cold March
day? Maybe it was a lousy car, and He was
trying to warn me.

Report from Queen's Park
Budget calls for higher OHIP premiums
BY MURRAY GAUNT
M.P.P.
Treasurer Frank Miller
presented his first budget to
the Legislature this week,
calling for higher health in-
surance preminumsand
higher taxes on gasoline,
tobacco, domestic liquor,
wine and beer. The budget
also gives breaks to mining
and tourism and to those who
want to risk some capital in a
small company.
Mr. Miller said that the
resulting increase in revenue
of $181 million will go to
reduce the $1,3 billion pro-
vincial debt to about $1.15
billion by next year.
Succession duties were
ended, effective immediately
and the sales tax will be take
off kitchen machinery and
restaurant equipment, at
least until March 31, 1981.
Purchases of furniture for
use in tourist accommodation
also will be exempt for the
same period. The present
sales tax exemption on rates
in Ontario tourist accom-
modation is also extended
until 1981.
The top mining tax rate
will be cut from 40 to 30 per
cent, and the basic
exemption from mining tax
raised from the first $100,000
to the first $200,000 of
mining profits, in an attempt
to encourage the creation of
more small mining
companies.
Individuals and companies
will be allowed to set up new
corporations to invest in new
or expanding small
businesses. Each $1,000 in-
vestment in a new Small
Business Development
Corporation would mean a
$300 rebate from the
Re , enue Ministry. The
government hopes that these
nNasures will entice capital
out of tax shelters such as
retirement savings plans and
into industrial development,
$20 million will be made
available in an employment
development fund to attract
major companies to the
province. The money could
be inthe form of loan
guarantees, grants, loans or
a share in the company by
the government, depending
on each application.
The general corporate
income tax rate will rise from
13 to 14 per cent, although

continue on sechedule with
the first two reactors of
Bruce B, and the last two
reactors of the $2.9 billion
four -reactor B station will be
delayed until 1986 and 1987
respectively, to help Hydro
match anticipated future

were under -bedded in terms
of chronic care, and agreed
to consider adjustments. In
the case of Wingham there
was some discussion con-
cerning the setting up of a
pilot project on the basis of a

Maple syrup festival on
On April 7, 1979 the Fifteenth Annual
Emira Maple Syrup Festival was to have
taken place. However, April 6 brought our
area this winter's worst storm, with blocked
roads, zero visibility, and hydro outages.
The Festival had to be cancelled!
This cancellation brought some very
strong reaction. One youngster summed it
up with "They can't cancel the Festival -
that's like cancelling Christmas",
Consequently it has been rescheduled for
Saturday, April 28. Anything you can do to
inform your readers of this new date will be
greatly appreciated. ,
The Festival program on April 28 will be
essentially the same as originally planned -
with one exception. The suger-bush tours
will likely be replaced by tours to varous
farms in our area.
Sincerely yours
M.E. Duke Publicity Chairman

Fixing nicks, scratchesis easy for most owners
Repairing and refinishing
the body of your car can be
worthwhile and done in the
confines of your own garage.
Repairs of nicks and
scratches, dents, small rust -
outs and areas of surface rust
are not difficult for the do-it-
yourselfer, according to ex-
perts of the DeVilbiss Com-
pany, manufacturers of paint
spray guns.
To repair minor nicks and
scratches, you'll need sheet
sandpaper grades 240, 320,
400, 600, sanding block, spot
putty, masking tape, tack
cloth, pre -cleaner solvent,
newspaper, pail, water and
sponge..,
Use automotive duplicate.
color, touch-up paint found
in small bottles or aerosol
cans,
Normally, these paints are
available for cars up to three
years old. (Even when your
car is new, it's wise to buy
color matching touch-up
paint, anticipating future
needs.)
If you cannot find the paint
in bottles or aerosol cans,
then an automotive paint
store usually can custom mix
the paint,
The most common types of
automotive paints are lac-
quers, enamels, and acrylic
lacquers and enamels. Touch
up your car with the samel
type paint originally used.
If the scratch is not too
deep and rust does not ap-
pear, then repairing the sur-
face won't be necessary,
To touch up nicks and
scratches, first clean the sur-
face with soap and water and
let it dry. Then use a pre -
cleaning solvent to remove
thoroughly any wax and
grease.
Sanding isn't necessary if
the area is small and the
primer has not been chipped
off, A temporary touch-up
for protection and improved
appearance is all that's nec-
essary.
Oil analysis looks at `health' of car
The question "May 1
check your oil??" is taking on
a new meaning.
With the -use of oil spec-
troanalysis, checking the oil
is more than merely making
sure there is sufficient lubri-
cant in the crankcase.
Using a technique not too
different from hospital blood
tests, technicians can deter-
mine the general health of an
automobile :engine from
analyzing the oil.
Oil spectroanalysis for
many years has been used by
trucking fleets, aircraft and
railroads to check on condi-
tion of equipment, More re-
cently, it is being offered to
individual car owners by a
number of service outlets,
The tests are performed by
extracting a small amount of
engine oil at change time.
The sample is analyzed by,
spectrometer, data fed to a
computer which prepares a
report to the owner.
Among the warning signs
of engine problems the
analysis can reveal are:
• Worn cylinder rings or
faulty combustion may be the

cause of a high carbon con-
tent in the oil,
• Presence of raw gas in-
dicates the engine may need a
tune-up, a carburetor ad-
justment and/or fuel pump
service.
• Possible bearing failure
may cause the presence of
copper and tin in the oil,
• High silicon levels
cate dirt is entering the en-
gine with potential wear of
parts if the cause is not
corrected,
• Boron or sodium in the
oil may signal the presence
of anti -freeze possibly
caused by a leaking head
gasket or cracked engine
block.
• Nickel in the oil could
mean a valve job is needed,
• High iron or aluminium
content could be the sign of
unusual wear of the cylinder
walls -a condition that calls
for immediate attention.
To touch up a scratch, use
a bottle of paint and a small
soft brush and let the paint
flow into the scratched area.
If you're painting a small
chip, just touch the area with
a brush; don't brush back and
forth.
In either case, let the paint
dry and apply several coats,
If the nick or scratch is
deeper than the primer, sand
and prime before painting.
Wet -sand the area lightly
using a 300 range sandpaper
and taper the edge of the
painted surface adjacent to
the scratch.
Place a wet sponge above
the sanding surface and allow
• water to flow down while
sanding.
Determine whether the
sanding is satisfactory by
running your fingers over the
area without feeling an edge
between the bare metal and
finished surface. Remember,
the wider the featheredge
around the repaired surface,
the better the finished sur-
face will appear.
Don't be afraid to enlarge
the scratched surface up to
five times its original size,
You're now ready to mask,
clean, apply primer, spot
putty in small pin holes,
finish sand with 600 paper
and apply the finish coat.
When the surface has been
prepared for painting, re-
move all traces of dust by
using a tack rag.
Practice spraying on a
piece of cardboard. To use an
aerosol can or spray gun,
hold the sprayer 6-10 inches
from the surface and move it
in a back and forth motion,
overlapping each stroke just
enough to ensure an even
coat,
Never release paint from
the container unless the
sprayer is in motion, and re-
member to keep the sprayer
moving when you stop spray-
ing at the end of the stroke.
This allows the paint to blend
into the original painted sur-
face,
The sprayer should be held
parallel to the surface to elim-
inate a heavy and light con-
centration of paint on the sur-
face.

Traveling with kids is
fun with right planning
With the summer vacation
season in full bloom, millions
of families will pack the fam-
ily car and be off on long
trips,
With small children, a bit
of planning will keep them
occupied and out of the hair
of the parents and the other
children.
There should be books,
materials for drawing and
coloring, and games which
do not require a large area.
Make the selection based on
what they would enjoy on a
rainy day at home.
Bear in mind that young-
sters grow restless, so in-
clude plans to make stops at
rest areas where they can run
off excess energy. Bring
along a ball so they can have
a quick game.
A 10 -minute stop will do
wonders for both the children
and the adults and the travel
time lost will be compensated
for by a more relaxed atmo-
sphere in the car. Have them
make a "pit stop" before re-
suming the trip. .
A selection of snacks also
will make the trip seem fast-
er.
Bring along some shopping
bags for litter and also carry
some pre -moistened face -
hand wipes.
Try to create an interest in
geography by showing the
children maps and reading
about points of interest you
will be passing or visiting.
One of the most suc-
cessful, yet educational, di-
versions on a long trip is a
contest for spotting license
plates from other states, The
first 25 states get one point
each for the spotter, the next
15 get two points each, four
points for the next eight, and
five points for the final two.
Before starting an auto
trip, be sure the car is in peak
operating condition.
Fuel consumption affected
by your car's accessories
How your car is equipped
affects fuel consumption.
• You might want to con-
sider installing a dash -
mounted vacuum gauge
calibrated in fuel use and
engine condition while driv-
ing. Cost is generally be-
tween $5 and $12 at most auto
parts stores.
• Such options as air con-
ditioning and -to a lesser
extent—even electrical ac-
cessories such as heaters, de-
frosters and radios use more
gasoline. When air condition-
ing is not in use, fuel econ-
omy improves by 5 to 14% or
more. Air conditioning also
adds weight—about 100
pounds—to a car, increasing
fuel consumption even more
merely because of the extra
weight, (Some of the fuel is
saved with air conditioning
because driving with closed
car windows means less
mileage -robbing drag.) If you
have it, use it sparingly.
• An automatic transmis-
sion can be a gas -using op-
tion, Manual transmissions
generally use less gas, par-
ticularly in small cars, al-
though this may not hold true
in situations where frequent
shifting is required.
• Power steering also uses
a bit more fuel.
Some options can help
conserve gasoline:
• If you want aircondition-
ing, for example, a light ex-
terior car color combined
with light interior upholstery
will reduce heat build-up and
keep your air -conditioner
from having to work so hard,
Tinted glass also helps,
• Fuel injection usually
saves gasoline by more uni-
formly and efficiently distrib-
uting the fuel than do car-
buretors, An electronic spark
ignition system also is a gas
saver since its improved
spark means better combus-
tion and less chance for fuel -
robbing spark plug fouling.
• Top quality radial , tires
usually will result in a 5 to
10% fuel saving because roll-
ing resistance is reduced.
Steel -belted radials generally
are even better than fabric -
belted radials in this respect.
• If you'll be doing a lot of
open -road driving, a cruise
control option may be
worthwhile since such an ac-
cessory can maintain a
steady speed, rarely using
the carburetor's accelerator
pump,

Stopping at attractions along the way makes trips more enjoyable for the children. When an easy

Six car checks to make regularly
How long has it been since
you took a really good look
around your car? If you have
to pause to remember when
you last checked your tires,
oil, coolant, battery or other
components, you may have
put if off too long.
Following is a list of car
checks that should be made
periodically by the owner, if
not by the service dealer:
I) Fluids: Check engine oil,
transmission oil, power
steering fluid and coolant;
add as needed, CAUTION:
Never remove the radiator
pressure cap when the engine
is hot.
2) Battery: Check for cor-
rosion on terminals, a com-
mon cause of starting trou-
ble. Check electrolyte level
and add water as needed, in
batteries using water. AN-
OTHER CAUTION: When
working near a battery, be
sure there is no open flame.
Do not smoke. Batteries emit
explosive hydrogen gas.
3) Drive belts and hoses:
While the hood is up, take a
good look at them. Frayed or
worn belts should he re
placed, as should soft, brittle
or bulging hoses.
4) Windshield wipers:
Check them out, The rubber
will become brittle with
weathering and age and may
he worn to a point where
wipers smear or streak the
glass. How's your supply of
washer fluid?
5) Tires: invest in a good
tire gauge and use it fre-
quently. If you haven't
checked tire pressure since
summer, you're likely to find
them underinflated. Even a
couple of pounds of underin-
flation can cost up to three
percent in fuel economy.

Keeping records aids in scheduling service
The bill you received
when you picked up your car
from the repair garage can
serve a more useful purpose
, than cluttering up the glove
box.
Receipts form a useful rec-
ord of all service done on
the car when logged and filed
in a folder,
Checking the log periodi-
cally can help you plan the
car's maintenance needs in
the corning months by com-
paring the records to your
car's recommended schedul '
of maintenance, as outlined
in the owner's manual. This
can lead to more dependable
driving by reducing unex-
pected and inconvenient re-
pairs.
The log and folder also can
aid in money planning. Many
times the repair order will
have a notation of other items
that soon will need service.
Those notations, plus a re-
view of scheduled mainte-
nance, will permit you to ad-
just your budget accordingly
or even shop the ads fora sale
on the work the car will soon
need.
Also, by sharing the rec-
ords with your mechanic you
can avoid premature duplica-
tion of the service, such as
performing a lube job when
one was recently performed.
"IT AIN'T NECESSARILY S0:
The term "Old Wives Tale" is becoming obsolete in these times
of sexual equality. Nonetheless, there remains a vast body of
myths and false sayings that merit debunking. After all, han-
dling toads does not really cause warts and eating fish doesn't
do much for brainpower.
The automotive world has its share of maintenance myths
that have earned obsolescence. This quiz asks you to separate
fact from fancy by answering the questions with TRUE or FALSE.
1. In summertime, it's best to keep tires underinflated
because warm temperatures will cause heat buildup.
2. To improve gasoline mileage, it's best to buy a
higher octane fuel.
3. It is generally a good idea to replace spark plugs
annually.
4. The primary cause of most starting trouble is a weak
battery.
5. If you install permanent anti -freeze in your car, it's best
to drain it in summer and replace with distilled water.
6. Removing emission controls will automatically in-
crease fuel efficiency.
7, Your car will get about 20 percent better gas econ-
omy at 55 miles per hour than at 70 m.p.h.
8. Electronic ignition systems completely eliminate
the need for engine tune-up.
9. Misfiring spark plugs are leading contributors to
excessive hydrocarbon emissions.
10. If there is no sign of smoke coming from the tail pipe,
a car is not polluting.

Describe car's symptoms
as you'd tali to a doctor
By MIKE KURTA
There is a lot of talk these
days about the quality of au-
tomotive service, and the
number of complaints
brought forth by the motor-
ing public. One of the reasons
could be a gap in communica-
tion between the car owner
and his or her mechanic.
Often there is a lack of un-
derstanding as to the basic
problem with the car and the
reason for asking for certain
service operations, This may
be a result of a sketchy or
unclear description of the
trouble, laced with opinions
volunteered by friends and
neighbors, and handed over
from owner to service writer,
to foreman. to mechanic.
Here are some tips on how
to talk to your mechanic:
First of all, if you try to
imagine a patient taking his
ills to a medical doctor, you
will understand more clearly
what your mechanic faces
when he looks under the
hood of your car, The differ-
ence is, your car can't tell
him where it hurts, so you
must be your car's voice.
Keep records. That means
any and all previous service
receipts should be kept in ;
folder in your glove com
partment, They should bi
ready for instant inspection
in the event of a warrant;
.question on tires, batteries
mufflers, etc., and it will give

ers still are dependable but
wearing to the point where
replacement would be advis-
able in the near future,
If parts replacement is rec-
ommended, the Council ad-
vises against economic short
cuts in quality of parts, ex-
tent of service and cut-rate
estimates. Insufficient ser-
vice to save a few dollars can
mean much higher future re-
pair bills as a result of the
penny-wise philosophy.
Careful attention to steer-
ing, suspension and tires are
among the major considera-
tions to keep vehicle mainte-
nance costs low.
Proper maintenance of
tires and wheel alignment can
reduce vehicle operating
costs, the Car Care Council
advises,
For example, tires under-
inflated by only eight pounds
can reduce gas mileage
by five percent and cut tire
life by 25 percent or more.
Cost-conscious motorists,
the Council suggests, will
check tire inflation fre•
quently with their own
gauges, available in most au-
tomotive stores for less than
two dollars.
Owners also should check
tires for abnormal wear when
vehicles are on lifts for lubri-
cation or undcrframe ser-
vice,
Further reduction of fuel
consumption would he the
result of incorrect alignment.
which can result in at least a
two percent per -tankful
energy loss—as well as re-
ducing tire life,
Incorrect alignment accel-
erates tire wear to an even
greater degree,
The Council points out
there are two easy ways to
detect incorrect alignment of
tire balance, indicating the
need for cost-saving wheel or
front end service:
I. Looseness or excessive
play in steering, or difficulty
in controlling the vehicle
over bumps and around
curves are indications of
problems which need cor-
recting.
2. Another is vibration or
the slightest shimmy.
When vehicles are on lu-
brication lifts, another pre-
ventive maintenance check
would be asking a qualified
mechanic to check the front
end and steering for loose-
ness, and shock absorbers
for leaks,

Bike weather just around the corner
With the advent of spring
and warmer weather, old and
young enthusiasts will be
thinking of getting out the
bicycle. The Ontario Safety
League suggests a few pre-
liminary steps you should
take to insure your bike is
safe.
Ride a bicycle that fits you.
The size of your bike affects
your ability to reach and use
the steering, pedals and
braking controls. You should
be able to reach the ground
comfortably with the ball of
your foot while sitting up-
right on the seat.
Check the tires for wear
and tear. Also check the
Where bumps come from
HOW A POTHOLE IS BORN -(1) Rain, sleet or snow works
its way into the soil under the pavement. (2) When the tempera-
ture drops, the water freezes and expands. This pushes up the
soil and pavement. (3) As thawing occurs, the water runs away
and the soil recedes, creating a hole under the pavement. (4) A
passing car or truck breaks the pavement, causing the familiar
pothole. Tires can be seriously damaged by striking a pothole.
wheel spokes, chain, and
your lighting and horn
systems, Make sure the bike
is well oiled, and get down to
the nuts and bolts of things,
tightening any loose nuts
where necessary,
Before taking the bike onto
the street, check the braking
ability of your machine on
both wet and dry surfaces.
Your bicycle should also be
in good alignment. If the bike
veers to one side when
pushed forward, it is out of
line and needs adjustment.
Remember that the bi-
cyclist is considered under
the law to be a driver and as
such traffic rules, regulations
signs and signals apply just
the same to the cyclist as to
Check
ignition
regularly
Ever since the Cain and
Abel incident, which con-
tradicted the Biblical adage
"a man's span of years shall
be three score and ten .. .
the human race has taken a
skeptical view of warranties,
When Cain slew his brother
early in life, Abel was in no
position to ask for a recount.
The moral of the story for
motorists is not to take
chances on critical car parts
just because the recom-
mended service interval hay
been extended.
A case in point is the igni-
tion system. New car owners
manuals often identify their
service -free life as being up
to 30,000 miles. Although
electronic ignitions have
eliminated breaker points,
they still consist of parts that
are subject to wear, erosion
or breakage.
Therefore, a check-up of
the system is advised on a
regular basis with a tune-up
at least once a year.

Old car festival recalls
horseless carriage era
Visitors to Greenfield Village
during Old Car Festival can
almost hear drivers coaxing
and sweet-talking their 300
antique automobiles as the
cars clang and sputter their
way down quaint Village
streets,
None built later than 1925,
the cars recall the age of au-
tomobile adventure; Here
one can see the drivers in
goggles and dusters and flap-
pers in their frills, symbols of
an age revolutionized by the
Model Ts, Stutz Bearcats,
Studebakers and many more,
The Old Car Festival is one
of the pre-eminent events of
its kind—a chance for pam-
pered motorists to glimpse
early automobiling and for
enthusiasts and collectors to
compare notes and trade
tales. The Village is an ap-
propriate place for such a
;athering: it was founded by
:he late Henry Ford.
Daily parade
During the daily parades,
the cars clatter past a collec-
tion of more than 80 historic
homes and buildings, relo-
cated from all over the coun-
try and set down in the pat-
tern of a typical New
England Village.
The setting takes on a par-
ticularly Early American
mood when riders on high -
wheel bicycles, a special fea-
ture of this event, glide
placidly by, exhibiting both
balance and bravery.
Some cars, like the bicy-
cles, have almost disap-
peared from modern mem-
ory, for few people can re-
member when a Jewett Tour-
ing Car or a Holsman Auto
Buggy trundled down Main
Street.
A car from the 1920s is new
by Old Car Festival stan-
dards. It is a festival tradition
to divide the cars into two
categories: the venerable au-
tomobiles of the pre -1917 era
and the upstarts from the
1918 and 1925 period. Cars in
each group compete in sepa-
rate contests and games, in-
cluding judging for authentic-
ity.
Amidst the Fords, Buicks
and Dodges, there are cars
recalling the shattered hopes
of early manufacturers. Just
ask an owner of a Wills Ste.

his short-lived enterprise
near the shores of Lake Hu-

Fog settled in?
Good wipers fight hazards
Fog is a driving hazard—
especially when a dense fog
sweeps in while you are driv-
ing at expressway speeds,
When this happens, get off
the expressway as quickly as
possible. You'll be safer from
rear -end collisions on lesser
roads.
Better yet, don't drive,
As soon as fog creeps over
the road, turn on your
windshield wipers. "Dense"
fog is merely a tine accumula-
tion of mist.
Once the wipers are
operating, you'll probably
find the fog not as dense as
.you first thought,
If your wipers streak,
squirt washer fluid on the
windshield. This should
wash away any oily accumu-
lation.
if streaking continues, re-
place wiper rubber refills at
the nearest service station.
Whenever fog rolls in,
even in daytime, turn your
headlights on low -beam.
Without lights, you are invis-
ible to anyone corning from
behind at high speeds.
Headlights also let drivers
approaching from the oppo-
site direction see you,
Professor says
-we love
our cars
"We do not just use au-
tomobiles for transportation.
We love them."
Those are the words of Dr,
Michael T. Marsden, associ-
ate professor of popular cul-
ture at Bowling Green Strut
University in Ohio.
"At times we become irri-
tated with them, as we might
with loved ones, but for the
most part we are pleased with
our symbols of technology
that miraculously take us to
and from our real and sym-
bolic destinations day after
day," Dr, Marsden told the
Automotive Information
Council.
"The automobile con-
tinues to be a major symbol in
American life that is as much
a part of our national charac-
ter as the flag."
Dr. Marsden, who is plan-
ning a course entitled The
Automobile in American
Culture, said the automobile
is able to resolve one of the
essential tensions in our
lives—that between our
realized need for community
and social groupings and our
need, on the other hand, for
individualistic expressions.
"Automobiles are socially
acceptable means of self-
expression," he said.

The Ontario Safety League
reminds motorists that
motorcycle drivers arc given
the same priveleges as
motorists and arc subject to
the same 'rules of the road.'
Watch for the motorcycle and
treat it like any other vehicle
- give it room. Watch for
mopeds, bicycles and motor-
cycles when making both
right and left turns, At
intersections, remember that
a moped is a slow -acceler-
ating vehicle - some models
must be pedalled before they
gain speed and might also
prove a little wobbly at this
point, Re particularly careful
of the two wheel driver when
train and streetcar tracks are
present. Negotiating tracks
is a hazardous operation with
these vehicles - don't crowd
them, And when parking on
a street, double check for
bicycles, mopeds and motor-
cycles before opening your
door,
Research into motorcycle
accidents indicates that in
most crashes involving an
automobile, the driver of the
automobile is at fault. In
most instances, the car is
making a left turn in front of
the motorcycle when the
collision occurs, Cars passing
motorcycles and cutting in
too quickly is the second
most frequent contributing
cause. The same danger is
present with the moped and

Most RVs lack maintenance work.
Despite the fact that vir-
tually every recreational
vehicle owner is seeking bet-
ter fuel economy and is dis-
satisfied with present
gasoline mileage, most dis-
play widespread inattention
to basic fuel -saving engine
maintenance.
Tests , on nearly 200
motor homes and towing ve-
hicles showed that 79 percent
of the motor homes and 78
percent of the vehicles used
to pull trailers had at least
one maintenance deficiency
that would adversely affect
fuel economy, emissions, or
performance.
In other words, four out of
every five needed at least
part of a tune -u;
An earlier " test
of some 5,600 passenger cars
found a similar situation voth
79 percent requiring mainte-
nance.
The most frequent engine
malfunction discovered
among the recreational vehi-
cles was incorrect timing. A
total of 67 percent of the
RV owners find maintenance checks increase gas mileage.

motor homes and 60.5 per-
cent of the towing vehicles
had timing that was retarded
or advanced at least two de-
grees from manufacturer's
specifications.
Such incorrect timing is a
major cause of poor perfor-
mance, detonation, and
wasted fuel.
Engineers per-
formed diagnostic exam-
inations of the engine and ig-
nition systems on 76 towing
vehicles at an Airstream
Trailer rally in Mansfield,
Ohio.
Although the motor home
or travel trailer is generally
considered an expensive ve-
hicle, owners are thrifty. All
but one in the entire sample
used regular gasoline, and
many answered the question
of what type of gas they used,
with "the cheapest I can
find."
Virtually every RV -owner
said that he Was seeking bet-
ter gasoline mileage and was
disappointed in his present
miles per gallon, Most admit-
ted to getting just five to eight
miles per gallon. Few ex-
ceeded 10 miles per gallon,
In terms of maintenance,
the motor homes were in
worse condition than the tow-
ing vehicles.
The only exception to this
was in the area of spark plug
replacement, Of vehicles
used for towing, 59 percent
needed new spark plugs,
while only 23 percent of the
motor homes required the
replacement of plugs.
There are currently no
standards for emissions on
motor homes. Increasingly,
standards are being applied
to the rugged recreational
vehicles and pickup trucks
frequently being used to pull
heavy trailers.
The • tests
showed that 59 percent of the
motor homes and 65 percent
of the towing vehicles failed
emission checks, based on
New Jersey passenger car
standards. In
earlier tests, 41 percent of
cars failed these standards.
Mr. Walker explained that
the high concentrations of
carbon monoxide and hydro-
carbon pollutants found in
the RVs are a sign that the
vehicles are probably wast-
ing gasoline and performing
at a substandard level.
But with this increase in
leisure and recreational
travel. thousands have let
slip routine vehicle mainte-
nance. Mr. Walker said.
"The gradual falling off of
engine performance fre-
quently goes unnoticed to the
average motorist because the
deterioration has been slow.
Heat, vibration, and normal
wear gradually change the
clearances between engine
parts and the adjustments
within the electrical, fuel,
and ignition systems.
"When owners do notice
the need for maintenance, it
is usually only after fuel
economy already has been
sacrificed for a considerable
amount of time," he said.
"The best answer for the
RV owner to the questions of
when and how often to tune is
that seasonal maintenance,

Elmer R. (Woody) Woodard explains the workings of his
1 Rite Tinie Saver Fuel Control System at his Elizabeth City,
N.C., service station. After buying gas and recording her
odometer mileage, the customer inserts a credit card into
a machine that computes key details of the transaction.
Later, she'll get a report on how efficiently she uses fuel.
System shows
Tune-ups don't cost;
they pay in economy
A tune-up doesn't cost. It
pays.
New proof for that state-
ment comes from a formula
developed by a North
Carolina businessman who
has devised a new system to
achieve economical car op-
eration.
Elmer R. (Woody)
Woodard of South Mills,
N.C., has applied computer
science to his fuel dispensing
operation to let customers
know exactly how efficiently
(or inefficiently) their vehi-
cles are running.
Mr. Woodard's system,
known as "1 Rite Time Saver
Fuel Control System," pro-
vides issuance of periodic
print-outs including the fol-
lowing:
• Quantity of fuel pur-
chased
• Cost of purchase
• Miles traveled since last
purchase .
• Average miles per gallon
on each purchase
• Average fuel cost per mile
on each purchase
Mr. Woodard points out,
"It's simple for a motorist to
become aware that his engine
needs attention when his fuel
cost per mile goes up dramat-
ically."
Based on information he
has gathered, Mr, Woodard's
formula shows how im-
proved fuel economy pays
for a tune-up.
His basic formula involves
a car averaging 10 miles per
gallon, driving 1,000 miles a
month, purchasing gasoline
for 60 cents per gallon with
10,000 -mile tune-up inter-
vals.
Assuming an average
tune-up cost of $40, eliminat-
ing a '/ of a mile per gallon
loss in fuel economy would
pay for the price of a tune-up
over a year. Under Mr.
Woodard's formula:
LOST
MILEAGE
.25 MPG
.50 MPG
.75 MPG
1 MPG
WASTE
$15
$30
$45
$60
Calculations are based on
the fact that surveys show an
untuned engine consumes
more than 11 percent fuel
than when it is tuned.
Mr, Woodard points out,
tune-up is: Any service nec-
essary to restore the engine
to its manufacturer's spec-
ifications and performance
standards,"
"These figures are only on
gasoline saved and do not
take into account the more
dependable starting and bet-
ter performance a tune-up af-
fords."
While Mr. Woodard be-
lieves his 1 Rite Time Saver
system could benefit all
motorists, his primary area of
concentration is for fleet
markets.
He says, "A computerized
analysis of fuel purchases not
only provides exact informa-
tion on how fuel is used, but it
is also useful for tax account-
ing purposes. It also helps a
fleet owner detect any unau-
thorized use of fuel,"
Mr, Woodard, a retired
navy career officer, intends
to franchise his 1 Rite Time
Saver system nationally,

Have you ever known
anyone to shop for a "bar-
gain" appendectomy? The
term "cut-rate" seldom
applies to surgery, as we
hesitate to compromise
where our physical well-
being is involved.
A person's life and limb
can be jeopardized, too, by
cutting corners on safety ser-
vices for the automobile, A
good example is in the case of
brake work.
To many of us, a brake re-
line means just that: new lin-
ing on the brake shoes, And
occasionally you may run
into a repair shop that would
have you believe that's all
there is to it.
Car owners should under-
stand that the brake system is
really two systems in one.
First is the brake mechan-
ism itself, involving linings,
disc brake pads (if the car is
so equipped) and brake
drums or rotors.
The second and equally
important system is the hy-
draulic system, which in-
cludes the master cylinder,
wheel cylinders, and the lines
that connect them. These
components could be over-
looked in shoddy brake ser-
vice.
The hydraulic system has
traveled just as far as the
mechanical system when it is
time for brake work, and it is
subject to wear, and deterio-
ration just as brake linings

12 — CAR CARE SECTION
When you take your car 111 belore vaoatioll,talk 11 over
Talk is cheap, goes the old cliche. But when it comes
to caring for your car, failure to talk can prove expen-
sive indeed.
The nation is paying needlessly an exorbitant price
in wasted fuel, deteriorated air quality and avoid-
able accidents. One reason for this stems from a break-
down in customer -mechanic dialog.
As a case in point, the average car owner tends to
neglect proper maintenance of his or her car. We know
that nearly 80 percent of all cars on the road today are
undermaintained in areas affecting efficient use of fuel,
emission control and optimum performance.
Basic service lacking
In addition, an unhealthy percentage of automobiles
• lacks basic service to assure maximum safety of opera-'
tion.
A major root cause of the situation can be rectified
by getting the motorist and the mechanic on the same
wave length.
the key to service satisfaction is effective communi-
cation. It depends on an accurate as possible descrip-
tion by the motorist of what the problem is.
When the motorist and the mechanic understand
one another, there is a high rate of customer satisfac-
tion with the job done, the survey states.
After all, an automobile can't talk. It lacks the ability
to tell a mechanic what ails it. The person who drives
that automobile has the responsibility to describe what
the problem is, how long it has been occurring and when
it occurs. The service mechanic must understand this
description and provide competent maintenance guid-
ance in return.
It is unreasonable to expect a mechanic to identify
and correct a cooling system problem when you drove.
in complaining about the brakes. It is equally unreason-
able of the mechanic to expect an engineer's explana-
tion of a problem from average customers.
To establish such communication, it is most impor-
tant that the motorist keep a record of all services
performed on the car. By doing so, the motorist can
avoid duplication of services such as a mechanic's in-
stalling a new set of spark plugs when plugs were
installed only a few weeks previously.
' And you, the motorist, have a right to expect
these basics from your mechanic:
Contact from the mechanic before work is begun,
if any problem beyond the ones you complained of
are discovered. The same goes for any cost estimates
much beyond the original estimate.
Return of any parts replaced. You may not want
to keep a grease -coated set of old shocks, but you
should at least be allowed to examine them.
Respect from the mechanic who should never
overestimate your knowledge or underestimate your
intelligence.
Now that the appealing time for motoring, the warm
weather vacation period is upon us, getting your car in
condition for the road makes sense. This newspaper
section is intended to provide you with information to
make you more aware of what it takes to care for your
car.
Happy motoring
By using this information and your own common
sense to communicate effectively with those who ser-
vice your car, you'll enjoy happy motoring in the
months to come.
Over cups of coffee, a motorist and a mechanic discuss needed
service work on her car. By bringing in records of previous
work done and a "diary" of maintenance she can assist the
service man in a proper diagnosis of the problem.
