Mr, Warner Andrews was in the Canadian West when the bus load of 36 Auburn residents and about eight more local went to Auburn Michigan to join in their Cornfest celebra- tions. Responding to their invitation 'were Mayor Wesley ,Sanborn and his wife Donna who attended' Auburn's 125th birthday celebrations. The plaque and key were given to Mrs, Eleanor Bradnock who had been secretary of the 125th celebration to bring back to Auburn, Ontario and read as thus - 1854 1979 Celebrating a 125th Birt hday of Auburn, Michigan and Auburn, Ontario. With great pride the City of Auburn, Michigan extends a warm welcome to the Delegates of Auburn, Ontario and, with the promise of a great friendship between our communities in the years of follow, we open our doors and our hearts. The secretary, Arva Machan read a letter from the Auburn, Michigan Council which supported and approved at it's August 6th meeting the invitation for the people of Auburn, Ontario to become a Sister City and to participate in the Sister City. The minutes were read by the village clerk Mrs. Machan. Mr. Andrews discussed the trimming that had been done on the street trees by Hydro workers and also the new lights. It was announced that Allan Craig would not be able to blow snow on the streets this winter so a new different operator will have to be secured. A request to open the east end of Goderich street has come up and this matter will be investigated. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST22, 1979 BLYTH, ONTARIO, PRICE: 25 Cents Volume 89 -- No. 34 Gardeners blossom The Blyth Horticultural Society's annual flower show and tea were held in the Community Centre on August 16 with an exceptionally good showing of exhibits. It was gratifying to see several new ex- hibitors. Mr, and Mrs. Harvey McCallum and their assistants had a very beautiful display which added much to the show, Mr, Harvey Sillibs huge petunia plant which measured forty inches across brought many admiring com- ments. After the judging of the exhibits the doors were opened to the public at three o'clock when many viewed the show and enjoyed the tea. Door prizes were drawn every hour. The Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce silver rose bowl was awarded to Mrs. Dan McInnes for being the exhibitor with the Vietnamese refugees highest number ,of points. Mrs. Ray Madill who placed second received a cash voucher from Art's Landscaping in Goderich, Mrs. Charles Johnston who was third also received a cash voucher which was donated by Cooke's Flowers in Clinton. These awards were presented by the president of the society, Mrs. Viola Haines, Mrs. Haines also presented the prizes to the winners for Home Beautification. Placing first were Mr. and Mrs, Ray Madill, second prize went to Mr. and Mrs. Harvey McCallum and third prize to Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Brooks. Thanks from the organizers of the flower show goes to the many helpers and exhibitors without whose efforts the show could not have been the success it was. Blyth people offer help As a result of several meetings, St. Michael's Catholic Church, Blyth and St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Clinton have set up a committee which has applied to sponsor a Vietnamese family of five. As sponsors the parishes arc committed to provide the necessary support to enable the family to become self-supporting and self- sufficient members of a community within a totally new culture. Their immediate physical needs must be met such as food, clothing, housing and employment. Sponsors must assist refugees with the less tangible aspects of resettle- ment and adjustment to a new culture, acceptance into the community and intro- duction to Canadian law and local require- ments. Adjusting to a new culture where the language is foreign is not an easy task. The effort to understand and communicate in a strange language may be exhausting and frustrating to both sponsors and newcomers. It will be a gradual process requiring patience, mutual respect and good humour, Although some of the refugees speak some English or French, many know very little of our language. Because some families in this area already have taken a Vietnamese teenager into their homes, work is being done in setting up English language lessons. , Anyone sponsoring refugees, whether child- ren or adults, and wishing to enroll them in a language training course should contact Mrs. Colleen Phillips at 482-7020. If enough students are available a more intensive program niay be set up possibly on a daily or nightly basis, A good grasp of our ,language will ease the transition to our culture and help the refugees settle into our I way of life. FLOWERS TO SEE -- These ladies were only two of the large number of local people who viewed the results of gardeners at the Blyth Horticultural Garden Show. This year was considered by their president Viola Haines as one of the best.

Cron Scotty T From Me to You THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST '22, 1979 — 3 Sand and Woodstock all in the past BY RHEA HAMILTON Between the frightfully cold weather we have had lately and the depressing news in the papers, this week turned out to be a thoughtful one. The first item to catch my eye was the oil spill tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico. Oil from the Mexican well has drifted to the Texas shores and is endangering both wildlife and tourist dollars. 1 know the sand well along that portion of beach known as Corpus Christi. When I was about 11 years old, my grandparents returned from Texas and as a gift, they brought some sand from PORKY PIG COMES TO DINNER — Well in a manner of speaking he did show up, when a pork barbecue was held at Bob Carter's farm near Blyth on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. At the barbecue there were 800 cobs of corn, and two dressed pigs weighing between 160 and 180 pounds.There were also 14 chickens inside the pigs which took about 14 hours to cook. Preapring a pig for slicing is Larry Smith. (Photo by Langlois) Texas for my aquarium. The sand is nothing like we're familiar with here. It is finer and much whiter. To this day, I have that sand, Abut two year ago we took a holiday through that part of the United States. One of the stops I remember well was the afternoon spent near Corpus Christi and Padre Island, The weather was cool that March and the beach desert- ed, The biggest attraction was the sandy beach which stretched for miles along the one horizon and the Gulf along the rest. Now the beaches are covered with oil and the lovely gulls and birds who feed along the beaches arc either black and dead or dying in the black ooze. Scientists are predicting a massive oil slick could very soon beach in the area and destroy more wildlife. I am saddened to hear of this and thank my lucky stars 1 ha d a chance to see the beaches of Texas before this tragedy. Another headline that dis- turbed me concerned Wood- stock - not the tornado but the American Woodstock that was a social happening that occured, good heavens, 10 years ago. The London Free Press devoted a full page to memories of the rock concert of all rock concerts. Although only 15 at the time, the gathering of half a million young people in Bethel, New York was news even in Goderich. We could hardly wait to see the film about the concert and yours truly saw it three times. The music was thrilling and the crowds were phen- ominal. The article's writer, for the anniversary, talked to people who had been there and asked their impressions of it all ten years after. Many hacl lost the idealism that all youths had then. Although considered an eye opening experience, I wonder how many people would be enthusiastic about such an occurence now. The majority of people who took part in the festival are either hitting 30 or getting pretty close to it. They have to work and be part of the social machine that they one time had hoped to change. The music still echoes as some of the older DJ's play the "Golden Oldies" and many of us remember bits and pieces of that weekend so long ago. 'The question in my mind concerns today. 1 realize that co schedule another Wood- stock would be impossible. But do the young people of today have that basic human- ity that united youth ten years ago? Or has inflation and unemployment turned them off and left them in- sensitive to the needs of others ? We always hear of the "Me" syndrome and wonder if it really is something new or if given the chance to do something in a united way young people would be able to shrug off the selfish title and prove that the strength and hope for our future lies in our young people of today Ind tomorrow.

Registration Number 1319 r motermatmeammemsragozoseatesaderaramemenzawarasregge The Chief Whatever our individual political beliefs, it's hard to disagree with the fact that John George Diefenbaker has left an unmistakeable stamp on Canadian history. His death last week has caused us to reflect on the impact he had on Canada in the decades he served in the House of Commons. Unlike many politicians, John Diefenbaker wasn't a man to retire gracefully into the background when defeated. Instead, he kept on fighting, even when the PC leadership fell from his control, and it's fitting that he died at his desk, still working. John Diefenbaker's beginnings as a criminal lawyer gave him the background for the fiery debates he led in the House of Commons, both as prime minister and as leader of the opposition. But even while the political analysts,columnists and commentators were delivering eulogies on the former prime minister's career, the politician couldn't escape closer scrutiny. The press also raised questions about the trust fund discovered when he died and whether it was established under suspicious circumstances. In the end, the fund was established by the PC party so John Diefenbaker could continue the lifestyle he'd become accustomed to when and if he did retire. Since the politician never did retire, the trust fund will be used to construct a boys' and girls' club in his home riding, to distribute his memoirs to students and a final third of the estate will go to the Diefenbaker Centre, the museum which houses many of the former PC leader's memorabilia and official papers. John George Diefenbaker had planned everything beforehand - continuing his lifelong practice of leaving nothing to chance. One can't help thinking Mr. Diefenbaker would enjoy the backroom games already underway in his old riding, where the PC party workers are already gearing up to find a successor to the "grand old man" of Canadian politics. Throughout his career, John Diefenbaker worked for Canadian unity, for the rights of minorities and for individual integrity. He once said, quoting a British politician, that he hoped someday people could say of him - "he may have been wrong, but he was never on the side of wrong." It was a fair assessment of an honourable career. To the editor: Thanks employers How time flies! Already we're nearing the end of another summer. At this time we would like to extend a sincere "Thank You" for using the services of the Canada Employment Centre for Students, The work that you were able to provide for the many high school and post -second- ary students we had on file will help cut educational costs for many in the fall . For most students the jobs you provided gave them encouragement and the incentive to use their time constructively. The Student Offices will be operating again from February to September in 1980. We invite you to continue to make use of our services at that time. In the meantime, the regular Employment Centre is avail- able to help youwith your student manpower needs, Thank you for your support. Yours very truly Susan H. Freeman Student Placement Counsellor The fire chief says When burning off a field of straw, be sure NOT to do it on a windy day. It is also a good idea to plow a few furrows around the outside of the area to be burned off. This is a public service announcement • sponsored by The Blyth Standard and written by the Blyth fire Chief Irvine Bowes., .4 CI,„ tit A proud display Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston Summer is not the time for a summer vacation around our household. There's an old house that needs constant attention so it won't fall down. There are several acres of weeds interspersed with a few vegeta- bles struggling to survive. There's a theatre that always seems to occupy more time than I should let it. Summer vacations in our family usually end up being rather brief, much as they are needed, So' when friends offered the opportunity to get away for a few days on a boat cruise up north it sounded like a great idea: a vacation that would be short but entirely different from the usual routine, We should have remembered our track record with vacations. The last time we took the whole family to a relative's cottage it rained all week. Three small children inside a small cottage for a week in the rain is not anybody's idea of a relaxing time, Our luck hadn't changed. The closer we got to the place where• we were going to dock the boat the closerclouds crowded together. By the time the boat was in the water it was overcast. Late in the day it was raining. It rained sporadically all night long, all the next day and a good portion of the third day, about until we were in sight of the ramp to take the boat out of the water again. In between we did relatively little of the cruising that had been planned. A trip to Georgian Bay was abandoned. Even the huge ferry boat wasn't braving the treacherous Bay. The inland waterways of the Trent -Severn canal system were much more peaceful, however, and we managed to see a fair stretch of the upper end of the system. If there's an energy crisis they certainly haven't heard , about it up there, The waterway Is populated with boats that measure more gallons per mile than miles per gallon. During the time we were there we saw very few American vessels but Canadians certainly didn't seem too worried about a lack or cost of energy. Neither are hard times very much in evidence in tourist country. Besides the boats that often cost as much as a house there were miles upon miles of cottages, second residences that would look like dream palaces to people in many parts of the world, The shores of the canals and lakes were lined almost without interrup- tion with cottages. Multiply what we saw by hundreds of lakes in the cottage country north of Toronto and the invest- ment in these part-time homes is mind -bog gling. Among the most impressive things along the way was the fantastic system of locks that allows the boats to go from one lake system to another of different water heights. It's amazing to watch how quickly the system allows boats to be lifted forty or fifty feet in the air to emerge on a new body of water, Perhaps most impressive of all is the new marine railway at Big Chute. It's a huge beast of a machine that can carry four large cruisers or houseboats or a larger number of small boats at a time. They simply float onto the machine, the car lifts them from the water using the power of huge winches and takes the boats up (or down) the hill to the next body at water. Sitting on board your boat during the trip is better than any ride the C.N.E. has to offer, When out of the water the railway carrier is 15 or 20 feet in the air and watching the ground disappear below as you climb the hill does amazing things to your stomach. Just as amazing however is the cost. Lord knows (and perhaps the Auditor General) how much it costs the Canadian taxpayer to operate that system each year. The new marine railway must have ,cost (Continued on Page 5) Huron Bd of Ed Acre deeded for centre BY JEFF SEDDON The Huron County Board of Education agreed recently to decd just over an acre of land at Holmesville Public School to the township of Goderich provided the township use the land for a proposed community centre. In a telephone vote in July trustees unanimously agreed to give board owned land to the township on the basis that it be used for a recreaton centre. The board agreed to the deal because it hopes to have students at the elementary school make use of the townshp centre. In an informal session with township council last month board trustee Shirley' Hazlitt, director of education John Cochrane, suprintendent Don Kenwell and Holmesville principal Ron McKay outlined possible advantages the school would have if the township centre was adjacent it. The board is interested in having its land used for the centre because of somewhat cramped conditions at the school. Holmesville School has a very small auditorium which forces the school to split its Christmas concert and graduation into two evenings to accommodate parents. Indoor athletic events are also limited because of the small auditorium. The township would benefit from the deal because it could shave construction costs by sharing septic services, water and maintenance costs with the board. Both the board and the township are in agreement on the deeding and all that remains is approval of the ministry of education. Township council wanted an immediate response from the board because it hopes to begin construction on the project in the fall. The request for land at Holmesville was one of three the board dealth with Monday. The village of Hensall sent a letter to the board indicating a chunk of land on the playground at Hensall Public School was badly in need of attention. Village council told the board if it was not planning on maintaining the land it may consider giving it back to the village. Zurich trustee Herb Turkheim told the board he had walked the Hensall play area and found no area not properly maintained. He said the grass may have been a few inches too long but it had been trimmed during the summer. Turkheim suggested the board tell village council it was not interested in deeding any land to the village. The Zurich trustees said the board may tell the village it may be interested in giving up the land if the village wanted to use it for some type of municipal recreation facility. That suggestion sparked a discussion on the practice of the board giving its land away.'The board had just finished deeding a small chunk of the Seaforth Public School playground to the town of Seaforth to permit a street to be constructed. Goderich trustee Dave Gower said the board should be looking at all these situations and finding out if it is not wasting money. He said in some cases benefits to the board may warrant giving land to municipalities but in others the land may be better sold than given up. He added that the board may be setting ,precedents by giving land away and may find more requests such as t ones from Hensall and Seaforth. Last year the board gave some land from Victoria PublicSchool to the town of Goderich for street improvements in That town and traded a chunk of land from Colborne Public School for fencing to permit widening of the county road adjacent to that school. Gower said the board should be looking at all its school sites to see if it is getting the best deal possible for its land. Trustees wanted no part of indicating there would be interest in giving up land in Hensall for anything. Turkheim noted that a new subdivision was being planned for land near the Hensall School pointing out the matter may be better left alone. A letter will be sent to Hensall villge council indicating the board has no interest in selling or giving any land away. Board discusses unauthorized visitors BY JEFF SEDDON The Huron County Board of Education plans to investigate ways school officials can get rid of unauthorized persons in county schools. The board received a memo from the ministry of education at its August session which dealt with methods teachers and principals can use to cope with persons on school property uninvited. The memo is attached to a lengthy report on the matter and the board, rather than attempt to delve into the report, sent it to its management committee to look into and come up with recommendations for policy. Director of education John Cochrane told the board the report could be useful to school personnel. He said teachers here sometimes have problems with people coming in :he schools and misbehaving. He said former students come back to see a buddy or someone comes in the school to see a girlfriend � and the uninvited guests give teachers a hard time. Seaforth trustee John Henderson, a member of the management committee, did not agree that the subject was one • the management committee should be dealing with. He felt if board personnel were having problems with uninvited guests the board's personnel committee should be looking into the matter. "Management has nothing to do with people molesting teachers that's a personnel problem," he told trustees. The report was given to the management ,committee. Behind the Scenes (Continued from Page 4) millions to build. It takes a half dozen people to run. Each of the locks had a crew of three or four. Yet the boaters using the system could buy lock passes for three dollars a day or nine dollars for six days. It doesn't take a mathematical genius to see the system isn't going to make a profit. Yet it is maintained to help people vacation on their boats costing from. $10,000.00 to $60,00,00 or more. The irony to me is that many ' of the people who were on those boats are from, the upper middle crass that complains about too much government taxation taking away from private initiative, Also giving some cause for thought along the way was the number of power dams we passed at these locks. One, fat' Swift Rapids we noticed had been built In 1917. It's power output by today's standards is miniscule but it's still running, providing power every day to help keep the city of Orillia lit up more than 60 years after it was built. \That must be pretty cheap power over the years. When one compares it, to the huge nuclear stations built at a cost of billions which will use millions of dollars worth of uranium a year which will be worn out in less than the number of years this plants has been pumping out power already (unless, of course, there is a horrible accident to shorten its life and the lives of humans who live in the area) they can see that the days' 'when we could harness water power • to provide electricity really were the good old THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST 22, 1979 — 5 HANDS BUSY—Gerry•Cummings has little time fur Idle chatter. She has been running a concession booth at the Blyth Memorial Hall for theatre goers. The menu which includes meat pies, hot bagels and cream cheese is her own idea. She hopes to expand the menu next year. Theatre cook makes intermission special. BY RHEA HAMILTON Amid pots and pans, jars and cans, supper was taking place. All this excitment was being cooked up by Gerry Cummings, who has been managing a concession of mouthwatering delights for theatregoers during intermis- sions at the Blyth Memorial Hall. Recently the theatre company asked Gerry to expand her menu and make them a special homemade supper, a welcome change after eating in restaurants for most of the summer. But suppers for the theatre company aren't what Gerry Cummings is noted for. Her specialty this summer has been light lunch food for theatregoers attending the plays. The food isn't the run-of-the-mill stuff you find at many concessons. Instead, the delightful aromas of meat pies, hot bagels and cream cheese meet your nose when you go downstairs during intermis- sion. Besides a few hot items, Gerry offers cream donuts and pies, as well as ice cream cones and fresh angle cider. The idea was first proposed when Gerry talked to Michael Ward about the feasibility of operating a concession near the theatre. But good locations are hard to come by, and Gerry knew to succeed, she had to be within shouting distance of the hall. The Blyth Centre for the Arts had been serving lemonade and cookies in the hall during intermission in past years, but now they needed someone to co-ordinate a larger menu. Gerry decided this offered a great opportunity to try out her ideas. Gerry Cummings drives from her home, a renovated school house near Lucknow, every day and does her shopping through- out the area. Buying local is high on her list of priorities, and a wide variety of donuts, muffins and meat pies come from flartliffs Bakery in Clinton and the Lucknow Homes Bakery. ' Gerry herself comes from a large family, and loves to cook. From her collection of cookbooks, she experiments with new and interesting foods for her husband Rob and their three daughters. She hopes to, develop a wider variety of menu items for the intermission crowd as time permits, but now she's spending roughly 50 hours a week shopping and getting the theatre menu organized. The hardest part of Gerry's job is keeping ahead of the spoilage. Although she has access to a fridge and freezer. Gerry still dries to buy as much fresh foodras possible .;very day, Hier only helpers are several young people who are ushering at the theatre, and who help wait on customers. One of her priorities for next season will be more help. And yes she is definitely looking forward to next season. The favourite item with theatregoers? "Anything with cream" laughs Gerry. "I've never seen so many lap up so much cream. • The big movers are cream -filled donuts and cream pies". PAST EXPERIENCE Gerry has had some working experience with food and food handling for large crowds. While in Guelph she worked at Guthries Bakery, now closed, and helped prepare meals for the food service at the University of Guelph. With the sight of food in front of her in large quantity every day Gerry says that she never tires of food. The most interesting thing about the job is the people, trI have found that the theatre people come in to talk a lot" said Gerry "The ' kitchen seems to draw everyone in for a chat and whiff of food, "Even the people who come down for intermission have so many interesting things to say". As supper nears, several more actors enter the kitchen and confirm the time of supper. With all the hustle and bustle about her Gerry has a smile for everyone and keeps on working. The hectic pace of the summer hasn't phased her and alrea* she is thinking about next year, an another summer of food and people. • 6 - THE BLYTH STANDAgp, AUGUST 22, 1Bfl Mrs.Straughan honoured on 89th Mrs. Elva Stratighan was honoured last Monday on the occasion of her 89th birthday when 25 village friends called to wish her the com- pliments of the day.

JUST OFF HWY4 BETWEEN HENSALLAND BRUCEFI ELD 262=3318 or 262-5809 Sugar & Spice by Bill Smiley City boys and boat people As a small-town boy who was always pretty closely associated with the country, and nature, it is a constant source of bewilderment to me to observe the reactions of my two grandboys to natural phenomena. They practically ignore them, When they come to our place, with a large backyard practically polluted by birds and squirrels, their great interest in life is the lawn sprinkler, at any hour of the day or night. Oh, they might look vaguely toward a tree when I say, "Listen to that big bird," They might chase a robin or throw a rock at a squirrel. But those things are basically boring to them. Much more fun to turn on the sprinkler, preferably when Grandad isn't looking, give him a good cold shot in the back while he's trying to read the paper, and spend the next hour alternately running through the sprinkler and running around with their wet feet on Gran's favorite rug. Take them up to the local plaza, where a store has tropical fish, a huge old parrott, gerbils, rabbits, white mice, and you'd think they'd be fascinated. One cursory glance and they're off and running, smashing shopping carts into each other, knocking over carefully arranged displays and playing Superman by leaping over the little old ladies sitting on benches. Took them over to see their great - Grandad last weekend. He has a lovely place in the country, about two acres, with a hundred places to hide and climb and explore. Know where they spent their time? Fighting to see who got to drive the dormant snow -mobile in 'the backyard. Second choice was "racing" an old car with its front wheels propped up on two big blocks of wood. Between the two vehicles, they must have covered most of North America. Took them down to the dock for a fish. They had no more interest in fish or fishing than I have in refinishing furniture. But they were intrigued about how long it would take to drown if I drove the car off the end of the dock. Out driving with them. l point to cows, horses, sailboats and all sorts of things they should be interested in. Scarcely a look. They want to • know how fast we're going, why we aren't going faster, and why 1 don't turn the air-conditioning to "super- cool" so it will blow their hair around. Street -smart City Boys. Oh, yes, then there are the Boat People. Somehow, 1 was inveigled into going out fishing with a couple of young colleagues. One of them has a dandy cruiser with a cabin, stove, the works. Seemed like a good idea. Have a beer or two, catch a mess of bass, do a little yarning. For three weeks the weather had been hot and humid. What a treat to get away out on the Bay, far from the heat and stench of town. Cool breeze, great fishing, good companionship. That's the way it is in the beer ads, anyway. We drove to the marina in a cloud -burst. Sky cleared. Spirits were high. So were the waves. Found the guaranteed bass fishing spot. Water calmed. Baited up. They put me on the side of the boat where the bass weren't, while they hauled in half -pound monsters of the deep. Sky clouded. Another cloud -burst. More wind. More rain. No fishing. Visibility decreased, along with the food and the beer. No land in sight. Blown off the shoal where the fish were. Anchor wouldn't hold. Soaked to the heels. Circled the buoy marking the shoal eighteen times while novice steered erratically and skipper pretended he could chart a course. Nothing in sight except rain.. Clung to rear seat with white knuckles and kept up spirits of crew with stories of flying formation through the clouds, and the time we came back from Horse Island deer hunting in November through a snow storm, pumps not working, and ten -foot waves. Did quick figures in head, estimating how far to swim if we hit rock, lake freighter or other cruiser stupid enough to be out in such. Skipper finally figured course, broke out emergency medical supplies, blindfolded all of us, opened her up and headed for what was either the north or the south shore of the Bay. ' Obviously, we made it. I had caught one four -inch rock bass and one helluva cold. But we had bass fillets for breakfast, the sun shone again, my old lady had to forget about collecting my insurance, and I promptly called our minister and told him to put me down for $25 a month for the real Boat People, those poor sods who have escaped from Viet Nam and drowned and starved and thirsted while we go tearing about in our air-conditioned cars, our cruisers with all the amenities, and whine about inflation, City Boys and Boat People. Enjoyed both of them thoroughly. give generously! the Heart Fund lekee,to FIIIER PAPER We have a complete line of books, papers, pens, math sets, erasers, rulers, pencil crayons and many other items to start the school year right.
