Blyth's oldest to be
Ayouthful 96
Edith Logan is a hard lady to track
down. Once you have located her to make
an appointment you're all set but that's not
simple: If the weather is good she could be
working in her flower garden or
supervising the delivery of wood for her old
cook stove in the kiti'hen.
Once inside the huge brick home you
notice the spotless floors and neat knick
knacks in the china cabinet. But all of this
is not what strikes you the most. It is Mrs.
Logan herself.
Although she looks like a petite spry
woman in her late 70's or mid 80's, this
entertaining lady will be 96 years old
November 5 and is one of Blyth's oldest
citizens,
Edith Logan was born in 1883 in Morris
Township and has lived in the area all her
life. She and her husband farmed for a few
years in Morris but moved to Blyth when
he took a job as one of Blyth's first can
salesmen. They never moved from their
brick home on King Street.
Mrs. Logan is a member of the Blyth
Horticultural Society and the Women's
Institute. This summer she became a
familiar face to visitors to Blyth when she
welcomed people to the WI catered meals

2 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 24, 1979
Guest minister at Blyth United
Un Sunday, October 21st,
George Cown was in the
pulpit at Blyth United
Church while Rev, Wittich
took Mr. Cowan's services at
Dungannon & Nile Churches
Conducting baptisms and
communion services.
Mrs. Wittich led the hymn
sing, and the choral anthem
was "Come Thous Fount of
Every filming," Love was
the theme througout the
service with sermon title
"Why Did You Tell Me To
Love?" The 3rd Sunday in
October has been set aside
throughout the Church as
A Mission and Service Sun-
day with "Opportunity '79"
being this year's theme.
Mr, Cowan left the chal-
lenge that we must show our
love for our fellow -pian by
giving until it hurts, Look at
ourselves, not the other
fellows he said. God will take
whatever we offer and make
the little things grow, to help
everyone and also good
things spread. Mr. Cowan
also said that if each United
Church member who does
not now contribute anything
to Missions & Services were
to give only 204 per Sunday,
the M. & S. Funds would
increase by two million dol-
lars and year, and this
additional amount is needed
to meet the budget.
The children will remem-
ber their story too—an object
lesson, when Mr, Cowan
explained that lots of water,
sunshine and good food
make some potatoes grow
large, where ones that were
planted in a shady dry place
grow. So it is with people -
thcy grow couldn't spiritually
when they feed on the word
of God,
Greeting into the Narthex
were David Webster and
Stewart Ament, and ushers
were Allen and Brian Young

niversary services next Sun

From Me to You
Appreciation comes after weekend alone
THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 24, 1979 — 3
BY RHEA HANILTON
1 was going to do a lot of
work this weekend but
although some did get done,
it wasn't as much as I had
planned.
My partner went on a
fishing excursion for the
weekend and in his absence 1
had all these wonderful plans
to keep me busy,
The first plan was quickly
laid to rest, I had visions of
sleeping right through to
eight o'clock Saturday
morning. Unfortunately I
neglected to shut off the
alarm, Prompty at six thirty
the music started and the
dogs downstairs picked up
the cue and started pacing.
They are geared to the sound
of the alarm and will not
quiet down until let out for
their morning outing. 1 am
not the one who normally
gets up for this charming
little duty and it took a few
minutes for the idea to sink
in.
The rest of the morning
was not too bad, The grape
jelly miraculously got made
and a selective stack of
dishes washed as well as
some piles of mail and
magazines sorted and
dumped.
After an afternoon of
auction hounding in the rain
it was home for quick supper
and a relaxing visit with my
inlaws.
Sunday was the "go
get -em " day. All the
procrastination of Saturday
had to be justified with extra
work done. While the wash
was quickly disappearing
into the machine, some
neglected wallpapering in a
long hallway was finished
and I even managed to cut
some of the trim for the
edges. But with all my
careful calculations the
corners still did not meet
like in the book,
1 have always looked
forward to being alone for a
couple of days. It makes me
realize just how much I enjoy
having someone around to
talk to and to offer hot
cookies fresh from the oven
to,
Most of all 1 missed my
coffee, Klaus is the
connoisseur of the coffee
machine. He does the
grinding, measuring,
warming of the mugs and
careful filtering of the fresh
water through the Melita
filter, I have never bothered
to learn the correct
measurement for fear I may
be called upon to do my part.
Well that certainly backfired,
I ended up drinking Koolaid
and beer all weekend, Which
come to think, of it wasn't too
bad,
Sunday the house smelled
of roast beef dinner and fresh
cookies. Thank heavens he
didn't come home with a
trout for supper. But then he
never has before, It seems
that the biggest attraction is
not the fish in the river biting
but the sucker across the
poker table throwing his
penny ante in.
I guess the name of the
game is appreciation. It isn't
until a time away comes up,
that we take a second look at
our partnership and
Blyth outreach studies Japan
The outreach unit met on
Tuesday afternoon in the
church parlour with 16 mem-
bers present. Mrs. Pattison
and Mrs, McInnis were in
charge of devotions.

Thanksgiving and meditation

Mrs. Mary Wightman took
the study period and spoke
on Japan and Human Rights;
how Japan has prospered in
some ways but only 1 per
cent are Christians and the
reason missionary work is
needed in Japan is partly
discrimination especially
against the Korean people.
Christian people are
placed in responsible posit-
ions and accepted in society.
A discussion on the import-
ance of majority or minority
of Christianity in Japan and
Canada was held with sev-

in Japan.

Aid for children
The statistics recently made public by Douglas Barr, Executive
Director of the tlr,ildren's Aid Society of Metropolitan Toronto, are
shocking: betweui' 1976 and 1978 the number of 13 to 15 year olds in
foster care in Metro Toronto went up from 205 to 510, an increase of
150 percent in two years.
The old image of the Children's Aid was one of the child -snatchers
who took children from their homes over the protests of parents. The
new problem for the '70's is children so out of control that their parents
request that they be removed from their home and 'straightened out'
in foster care.
Or social workers may have to take young children into cru of
concern for their safety. The 13 to 15 year olds are not babies, uut some
cannot speak up about parents who batter them or sexually abuse
them.
When a child is taken into care, the choice is not between a troubled
home and an ideal situation in foster care. Children take their troubles
with them and often go through two, three or four foster placements,
becoming more and more rejectd and disturbed. Foster parents can
only take so much before their family is in danger of breaking down as
well.
The agencies attempt, under extreme shortages of budget and staff,
to keep children in their own home by giving the parents support and
guidance. As well, a number of alternatives are attempted, such as
boarding schools, temporary group homes, stays in shelter -type homes
during crisis periods. But isn't it time for the rest of us to ask
ourselves, "What is happening to the children?" If they are in trouble,
tht v iced our help every day in every way, too. Often we are
mean-spirited when we hear a neighbor's teenager exploding in anger,
using foul language or we express disgust when we see a 12 year old
temper tantrum. Agencies cannot work in a vacuum. It is up to all of us
to create an atmosphere of love for the children around us.
As parents we can guide them, laugh with them, correct them in a
generous manner. As good neighbours we can alleviate little tensions
that could grow --lending an ear or a hand to a depressed or worried
mother. We can spread calm to achieve peace.
The professionals can best handle crisis situation. But surel y
parents and neighbours can prevent many from reaching the boiling
point by living alone. Perhaps we can begin to turn around Doug Barr's
statistics in this Year of the Child.

The fire chief says
If you encounter creosote in your stove pipes it
usually means you are keeping your fire damped
too much. It's a good idea during the day when
you are around home to have a small but hot fire in
your stove to help creosote from accumulating.

Behind the Scenes
by Keith Roulston
Our side -your side
Remember how games used to start
when we were kids? Remember how
someone would shout "Let's choose up
sides"? Sometimes it seems we've contin-
ued that habit as we grew.
People still like to choose up sides but
unlike the games of children, the games
they play now aren't just for fun. Our side
is always right. The other guys are always
wrong. People like to see things in simple
terms of black and white, us against them
and Lord help the guy who tries to find
common sense in a middle point.
We saw this again last week when the
Canadian Union of Public Employees
called for the scalp of Dennis McDermott,
head of the Canadian Labour Congress
because he had the temerity not to support
the Canadian Postal Workers in their strike
last fall. Earlier we had the spectacle of
activist actress Jane Fonda refusing to
criticize Vietnam for the expulsion of
thousands of boat people even though it's
the kind of thing that would have sent her
on long tirades if the U.S. had done it or
even if the U.S. had supported a country
elsewhere that had done such a deed.
On the other side of the coin we have
those who want to tar and feather Ms.
Fonda because of her actions. They
prevented her from being appointed to a
board dealing with the arts in California
because of her "unAmerican activities."
There have been rallies across the country
to protest against her. It brings up
unhappy memories of the McCarthy period
in the U.S. when just the hint of some
connection with Communism or even
socialism might mean you were hauled up
in front of a government investigating
committee and you might find yourself
unable to find work for years to come. It
brings to the memory the bumper
stickers of the Vietnam protest period
when super -patriots proclaimed "Amer-
ica, love it or leave it,"
The same kind of polarization has been
part of our history for a long time now in
politics. Right now there are people all
across the country hoping that Joe Clark
and his new government will fall flat on
their collective faces, leaving the populace
dissatisfied and ready to turn them out at
the next election, If they'did we would then
see a large number of people who now
support the government hoping the new
government would fail, If the government
fails of course, the country is in trouble but
to some people that's preferable to having
..he "other guys" in power.
This paranoid "them against us" psych-
ology has long been evident in Canada's
biggest continuing headache, the language
issue. There are those who see the
extension of French language services as a
plot by the French Canadians to take over
the country. There are those on the other
side who sec it as a trick to keep Quebec in
confederation so that the rest of the
country can continue to "exploit" the
Quebecois.
Probably the saddest evidence of the
paranoia left over from the cold war period
was the reaction to the Boat People tragedy
when some people actually had nerve to
suggest that the expulsions were a plot on
the part of China and Vietnam to extend
Communist and oriental influence, Those
people being sent out on the boats to
capture the sympathy of North Americans
and be rescued and brought over here were
the advance agents of a takeover of the
world by the Red menace from the East.
It's the same kind of sick racism, the kind
of unwarranted fear of anything different
that led to the interning of thousands of
Canadians of Japanese ancestry during the
Second World War, one of the saddest acts
in Canadian history.
On the other side of the racist question
though we have some Blacks in the U.S.
and some immigrants in Canada who see
any personal slight, any unfriendly act by a
policeman, any idiotic action by young
punks as a sure sign that Canada is racist
and anyone with a black, brown, red or
yellow skin is discriminated against. We've
got our white -skinned idiots but they're not
representative of the Canadian people as a
whole and those who try to make that out
are racist in their own way.
These people who choose sides, who see
everything as left against right, race
against rac e, class against class, who see
everything in terms of gigantic plots, what
they do is throw out any hope we have of
building a peaceful country, a peaceful
world, Very seldom is one side all right and
the other all wrong. The tendency to
choose up sides and remain fanatically
loyal t� your side no matter what the
consequences only makes problems worse.
We don't need more team captains in
this world; we need more people who
refuse to take sides, who refuse to yield up
their common sense in favour of loyalty to
o'ne side or another. We need people smart
enough to stand back and take a look at the
arguments of both sides and try to make
the best decision. We need wise men, not
fools.

Morris ets fi ures KALO � THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 24, 1979 -,7
g g � N�
on assessment change , NEWS
A Bureau Editor;
MRS. ALLAN
McCALL
BY DEBBIE RANNEY
Floyd Jenkins and Ken Fagan from the
assessment office in Goderich attended a
meeting of Morris Council on Monday to
discuss their calculations of the township's
equalization factor.
They told council members that in order to
produce the equalization factor they took 10
per cent of the rateable assessment or 86
properties.
The municipal, total equalized assessment
for the township was $56,313,153 and the
municipal equalization factor is 5.30 per
cent, He said their back-up data was land
sales from December 1976 to November 30,
1978 and they had worked backward starting
with the most recent sales. He said their
residential factor had been based on 25
properties, every one of them sales,
They ba: sed the farm rate on 57 farms.
Mr. Jenkins said that of those 23 were arm
length transactions and that their office had
based calculations on the market values,
Reeve Bill Elston and councillor Ross
Procter expressed some concern about that
farms had been used for the equaliz ed
assessment and equalization factor and
wanted to know about land that had bush on
it,
Mr. Jenkins said they had interviewed
both buyers and sellers.
"We don't add for possession of bush or
take off for the lack of it," he said.
Mr. Jenkins told councillors that they used
productivity based on what the farm sales
indicate.
"I always thought we had a good assessor
(in the past 10 years) Reeve Elston said.
"I think we've done a really good job for
the township," Mr. Jenkins said.
"1 take great exception to anyone saying
that they're not getting the best bloody
service they've ever had," Mr. Jenkins said.
He said the biggest problem was that nine
years had gone under the drain since tax
assessments had been looked into.
Reeve Elston expressed some concern
about people buying farms and coming or
going every two or three years. "These are
the ones that are worrying me, that that's
what my assessment is going to be based
on."
Reeve Elston and councillor Procter
pointed out that council members would
know the situations behind individual farms
and if they knew which farms the assess-
ment office had based the township's
assessment on, they could tell whether or
not it was a fair assessment for the township.
Mr. Jenkins agreed to give them some
numbers off the assessment roll so they
could look up the farms themselves.
Doug MacEachren, a conservation officer
from the Ministry of Natural Resources in
Wingham,was also at the council meeting on
Monday night to discuss dog problems in the
township, the hunting -- trespass problem
and snowmobilers.
"All we're doing about the dogs is, if we
have a complaint from someone or if
someone has a lead on dogs doing some
damage we'll get put and look after them."
he said,
MNR doesn't try and shoot dogs if they
don't really have to,
He said the big problem with a farming
community is with wild dogs. "These are the
ones we'd like to get a lead on," he said.
Councillor Procter wondered about the
problem of people dropping dogs off in the
country and abandoning them, but Mr,
MacEachern said he didn't feel that was the
Ministry's problem.
"We're acting on complaints basically
about dogs bothering livestock and
wildlife," he said.
Mr. MacEachern also said the deer
population in the township was looking very
good and that the Ministry was planning,
(although it is just in the proposal stage right
now), a fall deer hunt in 1980 for all of
southwestern Ontario.
He talked about the trespass problem, one
he said was shared by most communities
with hunters coming on a property without
permission.
Signs for sale in the district office state
"no hunting without the permission of the
property owner". He said there's talk of
re -drafting so it would say --no hunting or
fishing without the consent of the owner and
people with hunters tres passing should
give the Ministry a call, The O.P.P. looks
after straight trespassing.
Deputy -reeve Tom Miller asked him
about snowmobilers, and Mr. MacEachern
said the Ministry also responds to that along
with the O.P.P. He said most of the clubs
around, and the government;, have been
encouraging snowmobilers to join clubs.
Rabies in this area aren't a problem right
now and he hadn't heard of any cases.
Morris appointed Jim Mair for one year
and Bill Turnbull for two years to the
Brussels Medical -Dental Centre Board.
They held a Court of Revision on the
Coultes drain and opened tenders for the
work on the drain and awarded the job to B
& E Marquette of Moorefield at a cost of
$19,340.46. Other tenders were D.W.R.
Drainage of Stratford at $22,085; Roger H.
Woods Ltd. at $23,704,17 and Gerber
Drainage Enterprises Ltd. at $21,981.
Council also had a letter from B.M. Ross
engineers who had done an inspection of the
Pletch subdivision in Belgrave and felt that
the work was now sufficiently complete that
the township could agree to take the roads
over,

THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 24, 1979 — 9
Farmers, MVCA work to control erosion
Water management and soil erosion are
some of the concerns of the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority, This year the
Authority began an active erosion control
program to assist local landowners with
solving soil erosion problems and it is
currently working on a demonstration pro-
ject along the Belgrave Creek to show
farmers some methods of soil erosion
control.
According to the Authority, the Belgrave
Creek is one of the few remaining trout
streams in the Maitland River area, but it is
currently experiencing soil erosion problems
due to livestock trampling and vegetation
removal,
Two of the landowners along the creek --
Ross Taylor and Murray Scott have agreed to
work with the Authority to .solve these
erosion problems. Livestock trampling was
one of the main causes behind the erosion on
these two properties as both Mr. Taylor and
Mr. Scott let their cattle water at the creek.
It was in 1974 that some data was collected
on the Belgrave creek situation and Rob
Keip, community relations technician said
the Authority knew that some time in the
future something would have to be done
Because the landowners have agreed to
work with the Conservation Authority in an
attempt to solve these erosion problems, and
because the project will be used to
demonstrate inexpensive erosion control
methods for other landowners, the costs for
the work are to be divided up --85 per cent to
the Authority and 15 per cent to the
landowner. In Mr. Taylor's case, that's a
cost of about $800 to the Authority and $120
to him, and in Mr, Scott's case, it's about
$3,000 to the Authority and $452 to him,
The Ministry of Natural Resources of
Wingham will also be working on the creek
at the same time as they would like to make
it a more viable trout stream by providing
better shade and shelter for the fish, They'll
place wing deflectors designed to re -direct
the flow of water. This should make deeper
pools for the fish, since fish like cold water
and the deeper it is, the colder it is.
They will also be providing shelters out
over the water and trees will be planted
along the river edge to offer shade for the
fish. Mike Malhiot, Fisheries Biologist with
the MNR said the Ministry's main objective
to provide a nursery habitat for the rainbow
trout and also a spawning ground for salmon
in the fall. The MNR is footing 100 per cent
of the cost,
At the farm owned by Ross Taylor, a
certain area around the creek will be fenced
in, and that's the only section that the cattle
will then be able to get their water from, The
MVCA will also be planting trees along the
edge of the Belgrave Creek, not only to
protect the soil from the direct impact of the
rain, but also provide shadc that will
improve the value of the creek for fish. The
Authority will also be placing rocks in the
water where the stream current has caused
the greatest damage and it will be seeding
along the bank where there is minimum
amounts of erosion.
On the Scott property, a new kind of
watering system will be installed up near the
barn so that the cattle no longer have to
water at the creek, and there will once again
be a fenced off area for the cattle. Next
spring the MVCA will be planting trees and
seeding along the edge of the banks of the
creek on Mr. Scott's property.
Mr. Scott commented that they had been
running the one area where there was a lot of
erosion as a feed lot and they realized it was
creating quite an erosion problem. The
MVCA suggested an alternate watering
system to the creek to Mr, Scott --a year
round water bowl which would be electrically
heated.
The Authority will be doing some reforest-
ing along some parts of the land,
"In the future, this will add value to the
property," Mr, Scott said,
He said the one problem he could see was
that when the stream was fixed up for better
fishing (by the MNR) it would bring more
people on to his property but that the MNR
said they would put a sign stating that
people could trespass only with the owner's
permission.
"I think it's a worthwhile project financ-
ially. 1 felt all along 1 shouldn't be watering
that many cattle out of the stream. I'm only
too happy to see that they're doing
something," he said.
Some of the negative effects of soil
erosion according to the MVCA are: the loss
of productive land (agricultural, recreational
etc,), the sedimentation of stream beds that
negatively affects fish populations --soil sedi-
ment carries pollutants such as phosphor -
ours, pesticides and organic compounds into
our water systems and sedimentation of
farm drains causes a damming effect that
inhibits run off.
Through the Authority's erosion control
program, free technical advice and assist-
ance with funding to 50 per cent of the cost
of remedial works (to a maximum of $5,000)
is made available for inland erosion control,

Blyth Pee Wees win series
This fall, the Blyth Pee-
Wees defeated Walton by a
score of 7.4 to capture the
best of five Tri•County
Championship series in three
straight games.
Blyth won the series open-
er in Blyth, when they de-
feated Walton 5.3. Michael
Chalmers led the offensive
attack for Blyth, going 3 for 4
at the plate and scoring two
runs.
The. second game in Wal-
ton was just as close for these
two evenly matched teams.
With the score tied 4-4 in the
seventh inning, Blyth erup-
ted for two runs to record a
h-4 victory. Kent Howatt
scored the game winning run
with a solo honk run, while
Pat Cronin later - added the
insurance run. Roger Cun-
ningham had a perfect night
at the plate for Blyth going 3
for 3.
The final game in Blyth
was once again another cliff-
hanger for the fans. With the
score tied 4-4 in the bottom
of the seventh inning, Mich-
ael Chalmers and Scott
Machan both reached base
on successive bunts. This set
the stage for Larry Good,
who drilled a three run
homer, to provide Blyth with
their margin of victory; and a
three -game sweep of the
series. In this final game Pat
Cronin led the Blyth attack
with a perfect 3 for 3 night at
the plate. Also, Larry Good
and Scott Machan both
scored two runs each for the
winners. The game also dem-
onstrated the depth of the
Blyth team, as they were
able to win without the
services of their regular third
baseman Kent Howatt.
Theontire team played Strong
ocfensivcly for Blyth as they
made very few errors and
‘vcrc able to hold Walton to
just eleven runs in the three
games.
Pitcher 'Todd MacDonald
and catcher Pat Cronin turn-

formances. In the three

Tipsfor gardeners
Miss Martha Veldhuis of Dundas %vas the
c'ttest speaker at the October meeting of
iUly th Horticultural Society., held at Memor-
ial i fall on Wednesday evening. An
attendance of approximately ninety was
most prat if%,ng aad everyone thoroughly
enjoyed Miss Veldhuis' tips on the care of
many and varied plants she had on display.
Her talk included several little scrmoncttes,
1br example: just as God makes each variety
of plant different, so he makes every person
different, each with his own talents, needs,
and contributions to the world.
Mrs. Haines welcomed the large gather-
ing which included guests from Auburn,
Clinton, Seaforth and Londeshoro. Three
musical numbers by Mr. & Mrs. Hicks,
Harve McDowell and Lloyd Walden started
off the program. Hazel Elliott read a poem:
"The Magic of Autumn" by Edgar A. Guest.

Numerous door prizes were won by those
%vhose numbers Miss Veldhuis drew, with
the plant she had contributed going to the
oldest person attending, Mrs. Logan, who
will soon be celebrating her 96th birthday.
Miss Veldhuis answered questions about
problems with plants and sold a number of
the plants she had brought with her. Shc
gave an open invitation to all to visit their 2C
greenhouses at Dundas.
Mrs. 13earss and her social cominitit»c
served coffee, tea and squares.
1'o attend to the business of the Society.
The Directors held a meeting on Friday
evening, Oct. 19th at the home of Harve and
Ferne McDowell. Arrangements were made
for the various flower beds to be cleaned up.
Nov. 14 was the date set lot' the annual pot
luck dinner and Christmas program. Keep
the date open and let's have a good turn out.
Mrs. Logan to celebrate
(Continued from Page 1)
prior to plays at the Blyth Summer
Festival,
Quite independent, Mrs, Logan still does
her own cooking and even makes muffins
and cookies to take to sick friends. She has
the energy of a person many years her
junior and only needs a helper to take care
of some of the heavier housework.
Neil Elliott manages the lawn for her in
the summer months while she maintains
her own flower garden.
Mrs. Logan's talents can be seen as she
shows you through her home, with her own
large scenic paintings on the walls.
When she was a youngster she took
piano lessons with her two older sisters in
Brussels but with time she has moved onto
other interests.
Mrs. Logan offers one hint on her
longevity. She never drove a car. While
learning to drive, she hit her garage door
and told her husband that that would be
the end of her driving. This has never kept
her from getting out,
"Good friends offer me rides and if they
are going someplace special they ask if
there is anything I may need" Mrs, Logan
said.
Walking is her main method of getting
around and she walks daily to the post
office several blocks away.
Even winter doesn't faze her, She
oft .en spends most of the season with one
of her daughters once Christmas is over
here in Blyth, While she is away friends
watch her home and others take care of her
selection pf plants.
Mrs, Logan's family have planned an
open house for her birthday on Monday
November 5. Her daughter Kathleen
Naftel of Barrie will be on hand as well as
Lillian Sinclair of Sarnia and Effie
Stevenson of Seaforth her other daughters.

AN ADVERTISING SECTION OF
THE BRUSSELS POST,
THE BLYTH STANDARD AND
THE HURON EXPOSITOR, WEEK OF OCTOBER 25, 1979
save car cost
BY ALICE GIBB
Cars, like people, can al-
ways use a little tender
loving care and at least some
of that care can be provided
by the car's owners. While
serious maintenance prob-
lems still have to be handled
by trained mechanics, there
are a number of checks that
any driver ca n make to
ensure his car's in good
running order,
Charlie Campbell, service
manager of McLaughlin
Motors, said a 10 -minute
inspection weekly could save
a car owner an average of $10
per month in maintenance
costs.
He said car owners should
check their tire pressure
regularly, note if the brakes
are grabbing, use an
anti -freeze tester to test fluid
levels or ask service station
attendants to check the levels.
inspect windshield wipers to
see that they're working
properly and take a look at
belts and hoses.
He reminded drivers that
oil, for example, deteriorates
much more quickly in winter
driving conditions, so should
be checked more often.
He said a 10 -minute week-
ly visual inspection pays
dividends since "it's easier
to repair and prevent dam-
age than it is to pay for it
after the damage has
occurred."
Mr. Campbell said most
dealers and service stations
can supply drivers with a
checklist of things they
should inspect on a regular
basis. He said the inspect-
ions mean "problems are
reduced and pocketbooks are
a little thicker."
Bill Dalrymple, who's
worked servicing cars at
Rowcliffe Motors for 31 years
said he would advise people
who are buying gas at self-
service stations to check their
own oil levels, as well as
radiator, battery and brake
fluid levels.
He added if any other
unusual noises or problems
show up in a car, then it
should be brought into the
garage to be checked out,
John Munro of Seaforth
Motors, said on a new car,
there isn't a great deal a
person can do, except check
things like fluid levels, wind-
shield wiper blades and the
fan belt. Most of'these things
can be done with a visual
check. He also cautioned that
the newer radial tires often
have bead leaks around the
edge of the rim, so tire
pressure should also be
checked often.
TIRE PRESSURE
He said a lot of drivers
aren't aware as the temper-
ature outside gets colder,
then the pressure in tires
falls, He said pressure in-
creases with faster driving,
on highways such as the 401,
He ' said car owners can
purchase their own testing
device to check the pressure
in radial tires.
Mr. Munro also recom-
mends using the schedule set
out in owner's manual, He
said personally he's a great
believer in bringing a car in
for spring and fall checkups.
The service manager said
his servicemen have noticed
instances of radiator trouble
getting quite common in
certain makes, and he recom-
mends that people change
the antifreeze in their cars
every two years to avoid a
buildup of sludge and other
problems.
PREVENTION
He said if hoses are
changed every three to four
years, then "this can save
you a lot of aggravation,"
Gord Phillips, owner of
Gordis Gulf, said he advises
people to check both their oil
and air pressure in tires
every once and a while. He
said motorists should also
keep an eye on their gas
mileage and if the miles per
gallon stem to be dropping,
then the car should be
brought in for servicine.
Fred 'Tilley, of the
Canadian Tire store, said his
staff advises that car owners
cheek all the fluid levels in
the car frequently, check the
windshield washer fluid and
the wiper blades, check fan
belts and hoses for any
loosening or leaks and check
all the lights on the exterior
of the car. He said these
checks should catch quite a
few potential problems.
Marc Robinet, manager of
Archie's Sunoco, said one

(Expositor Photo)
Continue to get stuck in
them, The Goderich 0.1'.P.
and Dr, Alexander Bozyk of
Brussels offered the follow-
ing suggestions as to what
you could carry as a form of
survival kit in case you get
stuck in a snowstorm.
Cor stable A.D. Burt's first
advice: was don't head out in
a snowstorm period but he
suggested some of the
following ideas for a survival
kit. You should carry flares,
blankets, and some sort of
makeshift first aid kit, You
should also carry food sup-
plies such as tea bags and
chocolate bars. He advised
that you should change those
once a week. Other items
could include matches, a
shovel, and perhaps a pail of
sand or salt and you could
also carry a complete change
of clothing.
Dr. Bozyk offered much of
the same type of advice. He
suggested that warm cloth-
ing such as a ski-doo outfit
should be in the car and that
when you get stranded in the
snowstorm you should put it
on right away along with
warm boots.
He also suggested a ther-
mos bottle with hot chocolate
or coffee, a first aid kit with
bandages, ointment and anti-
biotics to put on any scratch-
es and wounds. And he
suggested you should keep a
good blanket or two in the
trunk. He also thought it's a
good idea to have a CB radio
if possible in the car so
people could ask for help if
they needed it.

2A — THE CAR CARE SUPPLEMENT
What the garage needs to know
While many of us have the
tendency just to drop the car
off at the garage or dealer's
lot when it's misbehaving,
hoping the service manager
can find the problem, most
mechanics agree they'd like
a little more specific inform.
ation to start from.
Gord Phillips) of Cord's
Gulf, said he likes customers
to be as specific as possible
when they bring the car in. If
they just tell him it needs a
tune-up, without describing
what's wrong, then he said
they could spend $50 and still
have the problem.
Bill Dalrymple, service
manager at Rowcliffe Motors
said he finds people in this
area have a fair knowledge of
what a car's problem is when
they bring it in. However, if
they aren't sure, then he and
the owner take the car out for
a test drive to determine
where the difficulty lies, He
said he talks the problem
over with the customer and if
he later finds the repair will
be costly, then he always
gets in touch with the cust-
omer to confirm that they
want hint to proceed with the
work.
John Munro, service man-
ager at Seaforth Motors
agrees people should be
specific - he said some
people tell a mechanic they
want a tune-up, believing
this includes an oil change as
well, which it doesn't. Also,
he said it's better if they tell
a mechanic if they're having
any choke problems with the
vehicle when they bring the
car in. He said with a choke
problem in particular, if the
car is warmed up when it
comes to the lot, then it's
more difficult for the mech-
anic to discover the problem.
Mr, Munro said Seaforth
Motors staff keeps file on all
their customers' cars which
they service regularly. He
said this way they can avoid
selling customers something
for their car that they don't
really need. This however,
only works for the regular or
established customers who
bring vehicles in for servic-
ing.
Mr, Munro said Seaforth
Motors appreciates custom-
ers who leave both their
home and business numbers
with the staff, since "we
don't like to do anything (to
their c ar,' without their per-
mission
Fred Tilley, owner of the
Seaforth Canadian Tire
store, said when a car is
brought in for servicing, "we
would like to have the name
of the owner, and the year
and make of the car," He
said his staff would also like
a description of the problem
with the vehicle, when they
first noticed it and how long
the driver can leave the car if
it proves to be a major
problem.
Charlie Campbell, service
manager at McLaughlin
Motors, said there are two
primary considerations for
someone bringing in a car for
a pre -winter checkover.
Those arc safety and conven-
ience.
Mr. Campbell said the
safety aspect includes a
check of the brakes, tires and
exhaust system. He said for
example, if the brakes have
been grabbing, this could
result in tires swerving when
someone tries to stop in
winter driving conditions.
Convenience means hav-
ing the car "in good mechan-
ical condition to get from A to
B." He said a car should
operate efficiently when first
started, and all levels of
a'nti•freeze, windshield
wipers fluid, etc. should be
checked so they're ready for
winter conditions.
Mai c Robinet, manager of
Archie a Sunoco, agrees that
the customer should be spec-
ific about problems. He said
he and the other garage staff
ask quite a few questions
when a car is brought in so
they generally know what
needs to be looked at.
He said when someone
brings a car in for an oil
change, the garage staff also
checks all fluid levels in the
car, including battery, trans-
mission and brake fluid lev-
els.

A GOOD MAINTENANCE PROGRAM — Mike Scott checks the oil, one
ofthe maintenance chores recommended by local mechanics that can help
you save on repair bills.
Patience,
maintenance are ke
BY DEBBIE RANNEY
Jack McCutcheon of J.L.
McCutcheon Motors in Brus-
sels offered the following
advice on getting your car
ready for winter.
He said that some of the
things that should be done
first are the checking of the
ignition, spark plugs, air
filters and basic tune-up;and
having the battery tested.
You should have the cool-
ant system checked, and the
anti -freeze strengthened or
probably changed. And the
condition of your car's hoses
and fan belt should be
checked.
He said that in winter
there should be an additive
to the gasoline, such as
de-icer to burn up the moist-
ure in the fuel tank. He also
said it's advisable to keep the
fuel tank full as this adds
weight to the car and gives
traction. 'There's also less
chance of moisture getting
into the gas tank due to
condensation when it's kept
full.
The exhaust system should
be checked for winter driving
to make sure that there are
no leaks, so that fumes will
be kept out of the driver's
compartment.
One important thing for
winter driving, Jack said, is
the windshield wipers. Make
sure they work properly and
that the• blades will clean the
windshield,
"For better cleaning, you
can put on a winter blade
that won't ice up," Jack said.
He also said that you
should keep windshield
washers in working order
and full of washer fluid that
will not freeze.
He said there's a lot of
night driving done in the
wintertime, so every light on
your car should be in working
order. Tires should be kept
properly inflated, and it's
advisable in this part of the
country to put snow tires on
the drive wheels.
Another item he thinks
very important is to have the
door locks on the cars oiled
so that people won't find
themselves locked out of
their cars on a frosty night.
That check of the locks
should include the door and
trunk locks. Brakes should be
tested just to see that they're
not pulling to the left or
right.
As for the outer appear-
ance of the car, Jack thought
people —should be washing
the salt off their car once a
week through the winter-

"It's like everything else.
You should have lights and
all the electrical wiring
checked. Under normal con-
ditions, there shouldn't be
people tied up in the winter-
time like they are."
"If • they want to protect
themselves against winter
problems, they should have
the car looked after and
should get it done early
enough," he said.
When you start your car in
the wintertime, give it a
break, and give it a short
warm-up period before driv-
ing away, Jack said.
"Preventative`mainten-
ance and a little patience,
when you're driving in the
wintertime is the best recom-
mendation 1 could give," he
said.
THE CAR CARE SUPPLEMENT — 3A
Keep your mind on road
One thing the mind can't
do is be in two places at once.
When you're driving you
can't be thinking about,
springtime or food or prob-
lems at home and, at the
same time, treat that on -
coning car like a good defen-
sive driver should. The
Ontario Safety League firmly
believes that driving de-
mands complete concen-
tration. When you're in the
driver's scat sweep those
other thoughts right out of
your mind and occupy it with
thoughts about the driving
scene in general, and the
.other driver's actions behind
the wheel in particular,

Clean your car and listen
for noises before winter
Before the thermome-
ter dips below freezing
levels, take advantage of the
remaining warm weather to
condition your car for the
cold months ahead, The Au-
tomotive Information Coun-
cil offers the following tips:
Starting with the exterior
of the car, put the high-
pressure nozzle on your
garden hose and clean the
under parts of the car
thoroughly. Pay special
attention to the fender wells,
the door sills and door
bottoms where rust can get
a head start,
Make sure the under -door
drain openings haven't be-
come clogged by the sum-
mer's mud or road tar. If
clogged, moisture will build
up inside the door panels and
provide an environment for
rust.
Then give the car a good
wax coating to protect the
finish,
If you spot any paint bub-
bles or brown blotches, sand
the surface gently and repaint

Read owner's manual
Then read your owner's
manual, especially the sec-
tions on seasonal mainte-,
nance. Tire pressure, cooling
system care and ignition sys-
tem maintenance are most
important for the upcoming
months.
Find an open road or a
vacant parking lot and run
the car at various speeds to
evaluate performance of the
steering, brakes, shock ab-
sorbers and front-end align-
ment.
Listen for unusual noises
such as pings, screeches,
groans or rattles and look at
the color of the exhaust
smoke—it it burns blue or
black you could have a prob-
lem. If in doubt, consult a
mechanic.
Poor
shifting
wastes
gas
Even though manual
transmissions can help re-
duce fuel consumption, you
may be robbing yourself of
this gas -saving advantage_ by
using poor shifting tech-
niques.
Shift into high as quickly as
possible. Racing along in
second gear can use up to 45
percent more fuel depending
on the age and model of your
car.
Don't postpone a tune-up
of your car simply because it
seems to be running okay.
Spark plug misfiring you may
not notice will cause your
engine to drink extra gas.

Vehicle inspection does
cut accident rate
Do areas with vehicle in-
spection programs have
lower accident rates than
areas without such pro-
grams?
'l'o seek out answers to that
question, the University of
Alabama at Huntsville em -
harked on an Auto ('heck
study program. The program
sought to learn the effects of
automobile inspections on
accident rates.
In the first phase of the
study, accident rates of cars
involved in the inspection
program were compared to
rates of cars that were not in-
spected. The inspected vehi-
cles had a 9.1 percent lower
accident rate than the unin-
spected vehicles.
Second study
Another study was made
as the mechanical condition
of the selected vehicles de-
graded, since the majority of
the participants had their ve-
hieles inspected only once.
This degradation of condition
led to an almost equal acci-
dent rate between the for-
merly inspected and never
inspected cars.
It was found, however,
that individuals who consci-
entiously maintained their
cars and had them inspected
periodically had a 21.1 per-
cent lower accident rate than
the uninspected vehicle
owners, the university re-
ports.
Accident Mc drops
In a third phase of the
study, accident rates of Auto
Check vehicles were com-
pared prior to and after in-
spection (and presumable re-
pair). The post -inspection
accident rate dropped 11.8
percent,
According to 13, F. Schroer
and W. F. Peyton, authors of
the report, "The results of
the study strongly indicate

Slow down in winds
High winds can influence
the course of a vehicle, states
the Ontario Safety League.
While there's nothing we can
do about controlling the wind
we can adjust it. When you
feel your vehicle reacting to
the wind, reduce your speed
for better control. Be alert for
situations where the wind is
suddenly cut off and extra
effort is needed to maintain
control: going under an over-
pass or near a windbreaking
barrier, such as a wall,'
building or embankment.

Winter sports cause special driving hazards
Douglas M. Fergusson is
the I:ind of person who will
ask what kind of winter sport
you're into. Then he will talk
for hours about how to avoid
trouble while driving to
your favorite winter sports
area and home again.
Fergusson is chairman of
the National Safety Coun-
cil's Committee on Winter
Driving Hazards; Vice Pres-
ident for Traffic for NSC; and
Director of Safety Services
for Nationwide Insurance
Company.
According to Fergusson,
special driving hazards ac-
company different types of
winter sports, Hunters on un-
improved, out-of-the-way
roads find themselves
blocked by blizzard drifts.
Glittering snow, the very
stuff that makes downhill
slopes a pleasure for skiers,
can slick up a mountain pass
until it becomes impassable
for those on wheels.
And snowmobilers add a
trailer whipping along behind
their cars to compound vehi-
cle control problems on icy
or snow -clogged roads. For
these vehicle -trailer buffs,
Fergusson has these tips:
• Starting and accelerating
must be slow and easy.
• On curves and turns, a
trailer tagging along behind
tends to pull the rear of a car
out of line.
• Passing other vehicles
takes longer and more room
is needed before cutting back
in, When being passed, the
air blast from the passing ve-
hicle can make a trailer

swerve back and forth. and go into a skid, Instead, you feel that a skid is about to pump again.
• Slowing down and stop- apply the brakes gently until
ping require extra distance,
• And somehow a trailer
seems inclined to try to get ,
ahead of the vehicle towing it
during slowdowns and stops
(jackknifing). '
When these stubborn ten-
dencies show up on winter-
slick-roads—whether a
single vehicle or car -trailer
combination is involved—a
great deal more care and
finesse in maneuvering is re-
quired. Anticipate all
movements well in advance;
then make there smoothly
and gradually, Fergusson
recommends.
Keep a steady foot on the
accelerator. Sudden changes
{ in speed or abrupt turns will
throw your car into a skid. If
you dogo into a skid, turn the
steering wheel in the direc-
tion the rear -end of the car is
skidding. But don't over -
steer. The instant you feel
your car beginning to pull out
of the skid, straighten out the ,
steering wheel to regain con-
trol.
Get the "feel of the road."
Away from traffic, jab the
brake pedal or accelerate the
engine momentarily to see
whether the wheels skid or
spin. A good driver practices
this technique whenever in
doubt of the condition of the
road surface. He then drives
accordingly.
When slowing or stopping
on slippery pavement, pump
the brakes. If you jam them
on you will lock the wheels

Christmas gifts for car lovers
If you're racking your
brain for an unusual, func-
tional Christmas gift for
someone special, think au-
tomotive, For many of us
cars are somewhat personal,
so gifts for our cars can be
very important.
Here are some items that
will pay dividends all year
long in terms of safety. gas
savings or longer car life.
But this kind of buying in-
volves more than the usual
browsing in a department
store, For some, gifts you'll
need to know the year, make
and model of the car plus.
possibly, the engine type. So
if this is to be a surprise, do
some detective work,
Under SIO
Here are some stocking
stuffers generally priced less
than $ I0:
• A tire gauge—proper in-
flation is essential to long tire
life,
• Touch-up paint in spray
can or brush bottle (be sure to
have the car's paint code
number),
• Basic hand tools for the
glove compartment: pliers,
adjustable wrenches and
screw drivers (both flat and
cross head),
• Windshield wiper
blades; it's good to have a
spare set of refills on hand.
13e sure your replacements
are the correct size.
• A spray can of
windshield de-icer.
• A set of booster cables,
in anticipation of the cold
weather yet to come,
• A set of spark plugs and
ignition cables to minimize
the chances of the above gift
ever being needed.
Over SIO
If you're prepared to go
beyond the $10 stocking gift
category, consider these:
• A new battery—another

IA THE CAR CARE SUPPLEMENT
HarurLt 1 t
BY DEBBIE RANNEY
Everyone seems to fear the approach of
winter in Huron County because as everyone
knows, winters around this area seldom
come in like a lamb and they seldom go out
that way either,
Now, before winter gets here, is the best
time to get your car ready for its winter
tnneeup, Mel McCutcheon and Larry Rice,
owners of Brussels Motors, say that getting
your car ready for winter should consist of a
tune-up, service, getting snow tires and
inters m
checking the exhaust and cooling system,
In this area, Larry says you should carry
salt, sand and a shovel in your car, and he
advises that snow tires should be on, and
that cars should be completely ready for
winter by the middle of October.
Things that should be included in the
tune-up are the checking of plugs, points,
condensers, ignition wiring and the cooling
system. Checking the cooling system would
include hoses, belts, water pump,
thermostat, radiator, the PC valve, anti -

They say you could make sure the exhaust
heat riser is checked and that the rest of the
exhaust should be checked for holes and
rust,
Service consists of changing the oil,
changing the oil filter, checking the wind
shield washers to make sure they operate
properly, putting in anti -freeze, checking the
air pressure in the tires, complete
lubrication, having the front wheel bearings
checked and lubricated, checking the brake
fluid level, the battery level, and having the
battery tested,
Larry's advice on winter snow tires is that
car care
once they're half worn out, the best thing
you could do is use them in the summer and
then get new winter tires, because he said
once they've been used for about two
winters, snow tires lose their bite,
The main complaints from Huron County
car owners in the wintertime are their
problems in getting the car started,
He also said his firm had had a few cases
where people had burnt the clutches in the
automatic transmission because they kept
rocking the car back and forth when they got
stuck in the snow. He says you're better to
pay a $15 towing charge, than to pay $300 to
$600 for a transmission repair.
Minutes a week can save car cost dollars
(Continued from Page IA)
thing car owners should
check periodically is the level
of their battery fluid. He said
in the summer the level goes
down two or three times,
which means the battery
needs more water.
Mr. Robinet recommends
that car owners have a
schedule and stick to it. For
example, oil could be
changed every 3,000 miles
and plugs and points
changed every 6,000 miles.
Many cars come with a
schedule for servicing in the
owner's manual.
Mr. Robinet also recom-
mends that car owners put
gas line antifreeze in their
cars at least every second
time they fill it up during the
winter season.
One maintenance tip
offerer! by Leo Medd of
Medd's Auto Sales, is to
have a car oiled or under-
coated when you buy it, since
rust is one of the worst
problems affecting vehicles.
