Home My WebLink AboutThe Blyth Standard, 1979-11-07, Page 1the S an ar WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 BLYTH, ,ONTARIO, PRICE: 25 Cents Volume 89 — No. 45 Blyth council hears Search for dentist stil on The search for a dentist to locate in Blyth contnues, Blyth council learned Monday night. Mason Bailey, a member of a Blyth Board of trade committee to look into the subject told council that finding a dentist to locate here is not an easy matter, "It will take a community effort to convince a dentist to come to town" Mr, Bailey said, Mr. Bailey offered office space in the north end of the Theull block which he owns. "Graduates are starting to look now for a location" pointed out Mr. Bailey. The key issue is'money. Mr, Bailey said it is very hard for young graduates to start a business, It was suggested that if a community group or service club could underwrite a loan for equipment and guarentce that a dentist in the community can make a living, a graduate would locate here, Council encouraged Mr, Bailey to continue researching the idea and determine exact cost ligures;cicrk Larry Walsh is to contact clerk Bill King, Brussels, concerning the clinic Brussels encouraged and the establishment of a dentist and drugstore in their village. A large group attended council Monday night to update council on the new addition proposed for Blyth Memorial Hall and to answer questions. Keith Roulston, newly appointed administrator for the Blyth Centre for the Arts, indicated that the lowest tender of Wayne Stahle Contractors, Kitchener for $202,000 will be the accepted. "The major part of the costs will be the updating of the present building." said Mr, Roulston, Renovating will include a sprinkler system, costing $12,800; fire separator between the downstairs and the hall above, $2,000; and fire doors and hardware for them, an additional $1,000; Not included in the cost estimate for the complete hall renovations is the installation of a 6 inch water line from the corner of Queen street and Dinsley. This new line into the hall is required for the sprinkler system. PUC member Jim Howson was concerned that the 6" line may not give the required pressure. He was assured by Chris Borgal, architect for the project, some tests had been done by the installer and 6 inch was recommended. The Blyth Centre for Arts already has $69,000 in grants and has been assured of an additional $90,000, leaving the reamining $42,000 to be raised. Mr. Roulston indicated that whether the council decides to help financially with the renovations, and updating the Centre board will still have to do the work. Blyth still has to pay off debentures amounting to $4,800 for repairs to the hall roof, Reeve Don Noble did not feel that the council could financially assist at this time. Councillor Albert Wasson suggested that time be spent calculating how the owners, the village, of the hall will benefit and then consider a donation for the overall project. Council approved the signing of an agreementwiththe Blyth Center for the Arts that would enable them to continue on with the work, A letter absolving council of debts to the hall would be drawn up by the Centre lawyer George Brophy. In other business council received a word of appreciation from the Wingham Hospital board for considering funding their appeal. The board decided not to persue the matter further, Councillor Helen Gowing who attended the meeting in Wingham reported that the group Wingham Citizens Action committee is staying in force, "They fear further cutbacks in the spring and wish to remain active in order to be ready" said Mrs, Gowing. Land purchase from the T.A. Gordon estate will be closed by the end of the month. council learned from lawyers Menzies and Ross. The land, next to the senior citizens' development, is for future development by the village. At a meeting earlier , this month with Morris, Hullett, East Wawanosh and Blyth Councils the Union Cemetery board pre- sented its financial report. Revenues have declined and the board declared a loss for 1978 of $1,562, The new roof and' ceiling in the mausoleum depleted their working fund. by $2,960.48. Rates for burials increased to $90. from $75. and mausoleum charges are now $20.up from $15, The townships and municipality of Blyth arrived at a formula for grants. Both Blyth and Hullett hold 32%%, Morris 15% and East Wawanosh 20% which amounts to $975 for Blyth and Hullett. The last time the cemetery board requested grant funding was 1975. A scverence for Bill Logue was approved by council, The house and driving shed is being severed from the rest of the farm. Council decided to wait till spring to pave the parking lot on Queen Street, Councillor Albert Wasson suggested that a plan be drawn up to offer a better parking arrange- ment. Although a tender of $3,956 was received from Gord Lavis Pavinglcouncil felt it would cost more to have the lot excavated and leveled for safer parking. The funds from the road accounts for this project are slated for next spring. The population of Blyth increased since CAUGHT IN THE ACT — Although these spooks tried to sneak around quietly like good spooks should, the photographer still managed to snap these pictures of them before -they went on their way to the next classroom as part of the Hallowe'en activities at Blyth Public School on Wednesday. (Standard Photo) Premiere at Blyth 'the last census report; 41 persons have joined the community. Council pointed out that the seniors who have moved from their homes to the Queens Villa apartments have had their homes bogght by families, There have also been six births in the village, On a final note clerk Larry Walsh read a letter allegedly from the Ford Plant in Oakville. The letter said the company had developed a real tough road truck and is embarking on an advertising campaign to promote it, Due to the high cost of making testing grounds for these vehicles the letter said cord had heard Blyth had streets that would suit their purpose. Council regretted the streets had been graded two days after the letter had been received and couldn't qualify as a test site. Taxes equal Assessment accepted Blyth village council unanimously voted in favour of accepting the new assessment for Blyth under section 86 of the assessment act. Howard Harris of the area assessment office and Brian Allen went over the assessment study council had requested. The main objective of this change is to equalize assessment in the urban and rural areas of Ontario. The study uses 1975 actual market value figues and up dates them to 1978. Of the 391 housing units in Blyth1187 are over -assessed and 160 are under'assessed. Commercial assessment is a different story. Many businesses have improved and not been assessed for the value. Out of 65 commercial units 41 have been over- as- sessed, The remaining 24 will have tax increases of anywhere from $100 to $1800, For industrial and farm lands there is relatively little change. Ratepayers will have a chance to appeal during a series of open houses to be held by the Ministry of Revenue in the area, Notices of these meetings will be included with pamphlets that explain the mill rate and the new changes. 'The Worlds Children' The Blyth Centre for the Arts is proud to announce that a premiere showing of "The World's Children" produced on location in Bolivia, Nepal, Peru, The Phillipines and Hong Kong, will be an added highlight of the Puppetmongers Powell puppet show on Saturday, November 10, at 2:00 p.m. at Blyth Memorial Hall, Blyth. This new educational film series is now available for use in school, libraries and on television across Canada, Each of the six World's Children films focuses on an individual child in a village and share the activities of a typical day in their lives with the audience, The aim of The World's Children is to foster a better understanding and appreciation of the lifestyles and cultures and children and family life in the third world. Two episodes will be shown on Saturday -- With Oscar in Peru and with Nag and Nakorn in Thailand. Heather McAndrew, co-producer of the series feels that children from rural areas will relate particularly well to the series, The Board of Directors considers it a distinct honour to have two of the clips shown here in honour of the International Year of the Child. Tickets at 2.50 for the Puppet Show and film will be available at the door of Blyth Memorial Hall the day of the 'performance.

Fox, Convener of Community Friendship and Visiting, was the speaker. The Call to Worship was the reading of a poem, "God Answers Prayer" by Fern. Prayer was offered by Dorothy who also read a message of Divine Love in the form of a letter, Remembrance Day Thoughts were handled well by Fern, She read a poem, "Is it Enough?". Isobel Fox, referring to directives on the subject of visiting published by the United Church, said that it should not be left entirely to Ministers and Elders, To make the church a personal force there must be a continuous effort made on the part of members of the congregation. Visits to General Hospitals are shorter and infrequent, to other Institutions longer. One must ask oneself", are you calling from Christian love or Christian duty?" When one gives of oneself when visiting, the cut-and- dried aspect of it disappears. Isobel closed her to talk with prayer. Her challenging mes- sage provoked discussion which resulted in a resolution being made: Each member at the next meeting will report on her contribution to the work of visiting.Everyone enjoyed Winona MacDougall's piano solo, During the business session the proposed budget for 1980 was adopted. The chair committee was given the power to purchase 15 new chairs for the parlour and plans for the bazaar being held in Memorial Hall on Nov. 17 at 2 p.m. were finalized, Each member is asked to contribute ' to the bake table and to other departments of her choice, President Evelyn Smith (Continued on Page 17) Bus N SS D .R , t, ORY - ' Prourtpdsna Mee•Prl. 9.5:30 COMPLETE L Optician 87 l� St., OPTOMETRIST'S p.m. Saturday OPTICALSEYVICE 527-1303 gstaff Ltd.

Mondsforlife * IP* CWSW Red Gots Swot, From Me to You THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 — 3 November is the month for fish BY RHEA HAMILTON The month of November has been declared Canadian fish and seafood month, and as part of a national program Canadian fishery products will be promoted. With that in mind I went over our regular diet of foods and found that fish was one fo the rarest times on our menu, Here in Huron County we only live minutes from the lake and fresh fish outlets and yet beef and pork remain the most consumed food item. When I was a kid, fish meant fish sticks or in the spring when the smelt ran, fresh fish. The smelt run was a big item in the season. Dad would come home with a pail or sack full of the slippery shiny bodies and promptly leave them in the hands of the able grumbling cook, namely Mom, I have never had the delight of cleaning these minute fish but have often enjoyed their tasty flavour after they have been rolled in flour and quickly fried in lots ENJOYABLE SUPPER — From the smiles on these faces you can tell the Anglican church women served up a whopping good supper. The annual dinner is held in Memorial Hall and over 100 people were served.

F.N:r•.�:4:•r77i:�::•:::nYfr:Y/l4:{'+iii'/irltGr �� I've got a secret As anyone who lives in a small town knows, it's hard to keep anything secret. If someone on a village council gets a payoff for installing parking meters along the main drag, people will soon hear about it, one way or another. In cities, that natural flow of communication breaks down. Information may never get around -- unless people make an effort -- when so many live and work in different worlds. Office and home may be even further apart in attitudes to life than they are in miles. And when you get to the biggest organizations of people -- to international corporations and national governments -- secrecy turns into a fetish. Information doesn't get around at all. It stays in double -locked filing cabinets, on documents marked "Private," "Confidential," and "Secret," out of bounds to everyone without proper authorization. Any information that does get out, such as press releases or annual reports, is carefully checked by corporate vice-presidents and public relations officers to insure it says nothing more than it should. The former federal government's mania for secrecy even kept it from telling an engineer working on defence contracts that his security clearance had been lifted. So he didn't know he wasn't supposed to see the documents that he was eventually arrested for possessing. Some of them he had written himself. Others had been sent to him by different departments -- which had not been informed of his revised status either. And cabinet ministers in that same government -- to give them the benefit of the doubt -- were apparently kept in the dark about the activities of their own security forces. Granted, those are extreme examples. But they reveal a pervasive pattern of thinking, in which secrecy becomes a basic principle. Because big government and big business are engaged in a power struggle - with each other and within themselves - because when you know something that someone else doesn't -- whether it's a current fact, a marketing trend, or a technological process - you're in a position of power. You have an advantage over someone who doesn't know. But at the same time, you degrade the other person. Secrecy reduces that other person from a fellow human to a threat to be wary about, if not an enemy to be destroyed. That attitude sets corporate and governmental secrecy in contradiction to some basic religious principles: that all humans are equally the children of God; that to despise or degrade others is wrong; that faith overcomes fearfulness and hostility. To be sure. religious bodies have long maintained some kinds of secrecy, too. But there is a significant difference between, say, the confidentiality of the confessio nal and the secrecy of business or government: one protects someone else, the other protects yourself. Before it was elected, the present Canadian government proclaimed the need for a Freedom of Information Act. It is to be hoped they will not succumb to the malaise of bigness and power, and will introduce legislation to cut secrecy down to size. For secrecy, in the end, always works against its owner. If you have no secrets to hide, you never need fear that they may be discovered and' used against you. *The fire chief says If you haven't got a smoke detector 'in your home, get one now before it's too late. This is a public service announcement • sponsored by The Blyth Standard and written by the Blyth fire Chief Irvine Bowes.; See you at the Royal Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston War Et Peace Author Farley Mowat was asked why, forty years after the war began he should turn to his experiences of World War 11 for his lastest book And No Birds Sing: "Because there's another war coming, can smell it", he answered, There- have been many predictions of war before, 1 remember a schoolmate during the Cuban misi le crisis nearly two decades ago saying with conviction he had no doubt picked up from his parents that there would be a war before the week was out. There wasn't of course, just like there wasn't a war during the cold war period of the 1950's when people were being urged to build fallout shelters to be ready for a sneak attack by the Russians. There's no more obvious threat to peace now than there was many times before. Our neighbour to the south, the U.S. is Tess involved in war right now than at any time since WW2 ended, Open negotiations have been going on with the Soviet Union on arms limitations. Since the Soviets have traditionally been. our main threat to our peace that bodes well, And yet. . .and yet. . . .1 know • Mowat's feeling, There's a disquieting sense that we're not as secure in peace now as we were at some of the times that seemed more tense. We may not have to worry about an outbreak of war tomorrow but who knows about the next day? The uncertainty comes,1 think, from the knowledge of what has led to wars in the past, It's comforting for us to think of wars as something that arc forced on the ordinary people by the lords and politicians. There was a time when that was true of course, those times when peasants were at the constant command of warlords. In. modern times, however wars come not so much from the decision of a single man but from the willingness of the people of a country that is translated by that leader into action, If the people of a country aren't willing to fight, the leader may declare a war but he's not likely to be successful. We've seen that in the U.S. where the will of the nation was not behind the Vietnam war. War often results from an instability of a society, Like a build up of ions before a thunder storm the economic and moral pressures build up in a country or society until with a flash the violence is unleashed. It's that instability, the pressures that are now building up inside our western society, that has people like Mowat worried, We look back this autumn simultaneously at the 50th anniversary of the Wall Street Crash and the 40th anniversary of the commencement of the Second World War and we can sec similarities to our present situation. People are becoming; fructratcd by the economic problems they face, the loss of buying power after decades of prosperity, the worries about price and supply of fuels, the uncertainly of higher interest rates and a falling dollar. 'They've been faring these problems for several years now and it just seems to gel worse. Peupi. are frustrated, and when large groups of people are frustrated pressures build up that are often only released by violence. To predict a war coming from our present situation would be foolhardy, '1'o worry about one though is wise. Such worries are why, some 34 years after the finish of Canada's last major war it is important for us to keep the tradition of Remembrance Day alive. We cannot afford to forget what war costs us. We need to remember those who have fallen but more than that, remembrc the futility of war. How much better a world might this be today if those millions of young men, women and Children hadn't had to die? What inventions Wright have conte from young inventors killed? What miracle cures might have come from young people who might have become doctors? What artists, farmers, fathers and mothers have we lost? Only by remembering (10 we keep the hope alive that we can avoid such useless slaughter again. The greatest thing we have going for us today to keep us from repeating the idiocy of war is that so much of the romantarism of war has been stripped away. We have movies of the battles of the last war that show us not the bravery and heroism but the slaughter, the waste, the ruin, We see on a television news nightly the destruction in the minor wars around the world, We have an entertainment industry in television and movies that today emphasizes not that war is glory but that war is gorcy. Remembering the reality of war is our one hope for peace. Only when we forget what war is really like or when we romanticize it are we in danger of being ready to head into another, These memories arc important as we try to make our way through this period of stress, There will be some who want to promote hate, distrust and violence in the coming months and years. There will be some who see the answer in crushing real or supposed enemies with military might. But if,we the individual members of society remembers the horrors of war and refuse to be part of a new one the likelihood of a war taking place are much diminished. We can't afford to forget. Learning by doing Young farmers raise barrows for the Royal THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 — 5 Young farmers who enter livestock into competition at the Royal Winter Fair learn fast the best ways to improve stock and the importance of having high performance in order to make a living as a farmer, Jane and Scott Robinson have spent the last 6 months tending 8 barrows (castrated boars in laymen terms) for their entry into the largest agricultural fair in the country. For Scott, 17, it is his fourth year in the Ontario Performance tested .Junior Barrow Show and is one more stepping stone in his farming eductation, For .lane, 15, involve- ment .stems from interest in the family farm. Both teenagers help out with the fancily operation of producing purebred Yorkshire and Hampshire pigs for market and breeding. The operation is extensive and includes the whole start to finish farming of hogs, Back in July, Jane and Scott picked four barrows each from several litters, to enter, As part of the rules a representative from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Gary Carry, weighed the piglets. The weigh-in age is about 6 months and amounts to 15-32 kilograms. The end product will weigh between 86 and 104 kilograms upon arrival at the show, in November, Scott has had good luck with his four barrows but Jane is worried that she may not even have two good ones to enter out of the initial four. "One became crippled and the others killed the second one." .lane said. Al- though she laughed when she spoke of the poor time she was having, she was learning Sugar £t Spice by Bill Smiley quickly about the mishaps with livestock that every producer worries about, "The whole idea is to produce a good quality animal" said Scott, The only special food the young pigs are given is good feed. "We use Shurgain starter but then most everyone else docs too" Scott said. The Robinson family have been in the pig business for 12 years and have 150 sows producing all the time. The final weigh-in date for the entries is October 31 and then the animals arc shipped to the Toronto fair for the competition November 8. Unlike cattle or horses, the youngsters arc not allowed to handle their entries. "There are too many pigs and only 3 or 4 handlers manage them a11." Jane said, 'IIIc prize market hog is auctioned off with the top twenty and the remainder of the pigs are usually sold to Schneiders or by teletype by the Ontario Pork Producers Marketing board, Judges emphasize average backfat thick- ness, daily gain and live appraisal at the show. All these factors are given points and those with the highest number take the prize money and championships. Although the Robinsons have not been champions they have produced quality hogs that were auctioned among the top twenty winners, While Jane remains uncommitted to being a future farrier, Scott is enthusiastic about joining his father in the operation. The Royal Winter Fair provides a good competitive background for Ontario's future farmers. Jane & Scott Robinson Remember that column I wrote last week about the glories of October? Forget it. 1 must have been in an euphoric mood. Reality has returned, Caught one of those deep and heavy colds that make you cough up stuff that gourme is pay for and call oysters. Had to take two clays off work, first time in two years, and went back far from well, but driven from the hoose by my wil'e's solicitude. Had the turn signals and the heating fixed on my car, reached into my pocket to pay the bill maybe thirty -live dollars - took a look at the bill, and had to be helped into the front seat of the car. One hundred and one dollars, plus change. Approximately 30 per cent of the entire value of the car. You could buy a pretty good jalopy for that sum, not so long ago. This morning, whet, I looked out the window, I nearly kecledaver. 1 can sec six roofs from the bathroom, and every one of them was white, on the day after Thanks- giving. Today, when I got home from work, it was hailing. And I'd forgotten to put the garbage out. Thought I'd give my wife a treat raid cook the 'Thanksgiving dinner, She wasn't keen on a bird, as there were only the two of us. But you have to keep up traditions, like the British dressing for dinner in the jungle. And that's just what it was like. Dressing for dinner in the jungle, On the Saturday, picked up a nice roasting chicken, about four and a half pounds. Didn't pay much attention, as it was in a plastic bag, and felt fat and juicy, Got up a bit late on Thanksgiving Day, and the stuffing was made. 1 usually do this, because I love experimenting with season- ings. A shot of this, a dash of that, a soupcon of something else. It usually turns out to be either pretty exotic, or inedible. Anyway, she'd beaten me to it, not wanting t� feel beholden. Feeling be holden is when your mate does one of your jobs, and reminds you about it for the next three years. Well, I didn't mind. But that's the easy part. the stuffing. The tough part is getting it in, and wrestling with the bird, and trussing it. You usually wind up with a mixture of butter and dressing all over you, up to the elbows and down to the knees, and A deep and heavy cold a bad temper. Often you have to scrub the kitchen floor, there's so much goop on it, once you've got the beast in the oven. But 1 didn't mind. l'vc bccn through this sweaty struggle before, and know well the sense of triumph when the slippery monster is finally in the oven, basted in butter, and ready to start sending out that incluctible odor of roasting fowl This time, however, i was rather shaken when I pulled the bird out of the plastic bag and prepared for battle. It looked as though it had just come through Grade I of Butcher's School. All the skin was missing from the left side. It had one leg, one, stuck up at an obscene angle. I'he neck looked as though Jack the Ripper had been at it on one of his bad nights. And all the good guts - liver, gizzard and heart, had been stolen. These, along with the neck, are what I make my magnificent gravy from. The neck was there, all right, and as tough as the neck of a 'utturc. Did you ever try to truss a one -legged chicken, semi -skinned, and make it conte out like the usual work of art? Don't. Your heart won't be in it. was so disturbed that 1 had to resort to a preprandial nerve relaxer, and this led to further disaster: the pot with the vegetables burned black, because i can't smell smoke, and my wife was upstairs, staying away from the blue air that often tills the kitchen when I am cooking. It was doubly blue this time. it will take a week of scrubbing to get the carbon off the inside of that pot. '1'o further the jollity of the occasion, we got a call from my daughter who is teaching a thousand miles away, in the north. It was a bit like getting a call from Hades. She had a wracking cough, and had been off work for a week. Her students are "hard as nails", and there were dark rumours of wild -dog packs that will attack if you slip and fall on the ice, and.wild-dog kids who will do the sante. She was so lonely she could scarce hang up the phone. She has to walk a mile and a half, in windy weather, to get anti -biotics from the doctor. She is horrified that she gets only a little more than half her pay cheque, when all the deductions are made. Hahl After years of being a student, living on loans and grants (and handouts from us) she has entered the chill world of capitalism and income taxes. But it wasn't all black. That one -legged chicken didn't taste bad, if you'd had enough pre -dinner tranquillizer to destroy your taste buds. We did find that the damper on our fireplace works, after twenty years, and we got it closed to save heat dollars pouring up the chimney. And thanks to the town work crew, who cut down one of our maples, the boy next door, and a double sawback, I have my winter's fireplace wood in the cellar. And 1 know my daughter, tough stuff, will whip those kids into shape. Jack and Liz Coultes at Trinity Anglican Church Supper Thomas J. Devereaux, B.Sc.

Seaforth 18.7-9261 527-0527 The truth about God • BY REV. ROBERT SCOTT There is only one place where the truth about God and His will can be found, That place is the Bible. Paul gives this evaluation of God's word; "The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong with our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right. It is God's way of making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone. (11 Timothy 3:16 TLB) it is in the divinely inspired word that we learn about the loving Father, The Scriptures are the truth a- bout God and an unfailing guide to the "New Life" that Christ offers, 'Unfortunately, many today treat the Word of God like so many fairy tales or science fiction stories. Many, when they come upon something that confuses them or makes them uncomfortable in any way, will reject that portion of scripture or alter it to suit their own convenience. Some will try to use science to explain the miracles on the assumption that God has to be easy to understand and explain on the basis of hu- man knowledge. Others will discount the miraculous work of God altogether. Of course, they forget that if we make God just like us, He ceases to be God. The Bible becomes just another work of fiction to be read and enjoyed but never acted upon. John writes: "Someone may say, 'I am a Christian; I am on my way to heaven; I belong to Christ.' But if he doesn't do what Christ tells him to, he is a liar. But those who do what Christ tells them to will learn to love God more and more. That is the way to know whether or not you are a Christian," (I John 2:4,5 TLB) To live the Christian life, you need the Bible as your guide, And for the Holy Scriptures to help you, in the new life you want to live, you have to accept its truth and obey its commandments. Read the Bible, Obey its Word and act upon the urging of the Holy Spirit of God, It will change your life, ****** Rev. Robert Scott is the minister of the Londesbor- ough United Church .

With energy costs rising, many Ontarians are rekindling an old flame— wood fires. Wood used properly can provide a cheap, clean renewable heat source. Used improperly, however, ‘vood burning can be dangerous. Whether your stove is of ornate design'or a more modern stove, they both have one thing in common; they each need proper installation. Here are some of the do's and don'ts on heating with wood: ❑ DO — BUY only units which have been certified for wood use, by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), t:1Y',1►k1011,1l1'tl6':,1.%11111Lt:la.1.0!r, I Li bVI or the Underwriter's Laboratories of Canada (ULC). ❑ DO — HIRE an expert to certify that your flue pipe and chimney arc in good condition to handle the higher temperatures. ❑ DO — CONTACT your insurance agent before installing the system. Be sure you're covered in case of fire. ,, ❑ DO — CHECK with your municipality before any work begins. You'll probably need a building permit. ❑ DO — ENSURE adequate clearances are provided as listed in the Ontario Building Code and other guides available at your local library. ❑ DON'T — USE flammable liquids when lighting the fire ...like gasoline, kerosene or charcoal lighter fluids. Wood ll,.: ii. 11.1111 11.1. 1.1../..,11. i..i • ..... ,.. 1, • - Ontario chips, kindling, shavings or newspapers are the safest startup materials. ❑ DON'T — KEEP any flammable materials near your wood burner. ❑ DON'T — FORGET to clean your stovepipes and flues regularly to avoid dangerous flammable build-up. ❑ DON'T—TAKE CHANCES WITH FIRE. Teach your children about fire safety too. If you have any further questions about heating with wood fuels, contact your local Fire Department, or write for the free guide titled: "Heating with Wood Fuels" Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations 555 Yonge Street Toronto, Ontario M7A 2H6 Frank Drea, Minister of Consumer and Commercial Relations William Davis, Premier • 10 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 Obituaries HELEN BUTLER At the Toronto East Gen- eral Hospital, Oct. 26th, 1979, Helen Eunice Butler in her 55th year.

Ontario Hydro should con- sider cancelling a $38 million boiler contract for the Darlington nuclear power plant and calling for new tenders, said Jim Bradley, 1\lPP (St. Catharines) in the Legislature this week. He said he favours the cancellation because of pro- blems with other nuclear boilers built by Babcock Wilcox Canada Ltd. "In light of the many difficulties involved with the work performed by B & W to this point, and in light of the financial commitments that may be involved in final agreements concerning these problems, one has to wonder whether the company has the capability to carry out the work on Darlington", Mr, Bradely stated. He made the comments after voting for a motion before the legislature's standing committee on resources to criticize Hydro for failing to provide details last July on problems With hollers supplied for the Bruce A generating staiton. Hydro's executive vice- president (operations), testified that during a pre- vious appearance he had not disclosed problems involving stress levels in boiler -drum welds because it was thought the problems had been solved. He said it was only in September that new analyses led Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. to suggest a new review of stress levels in the Bruce boilers. A ta, sk force was set up and Hydro announced October 16th that electrical output of the four Bruce A units was being cut while the review v.'as under ,vay.

Under the present equalization formula, Ontario is technically entitled to the money, but the Treasurer added: "According to the principle for which equalization payments were established, Ontario, in the philosophical sense, is not entitled to receive them, since our per capita incomes arc well above the national average." Liberal Finance Critic, David Peterson, MPP (London, Centre) said the philosophy underlying the equalization formula is not to equalize per capita income but to equalize provincial revenues. He demanded to know why Ontario has not taken the money and whether it was because of pride.

Phone 523-9531, 14 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 High interest leaves some farmers in shock BY ALICE GIBB Frank Wall, a member of the Ontario ,,Federation of Agriculture (OFA) executive, told members of the Huron County Federation of Agri- culture that he thinks the current high interest rates will "seriously jeopardize our way of production, what we produce and how effic- iently we produce it." Mr. Wall told the meeting the interest rates are going to create problems for farmers due to the "high cost of short term money." He told federation mem- bers there wasn't any re- solution on interest rates submitted for discussion at the upcoming OFA conven- tion in Toronto at the end of the month, which surprised him. Merle Gunby, president of the Huron County federation said, "I think we're still in a state of shock, Frank," Mr. Wall said the reason given for higher interest rates was as a curb for inflation, but he said if farmers can't get short term money, and food supplies become scarce, then prices will increase anyway, He said for example he didn't know how long corn growers will be able to stay in business if the costs of energy and the costs of short term money keep rising. Mr. Wall was speaking to federation members on the proper way to draft re- solutions to the OFA conven- tion. He told members that people who set up re- solutions must make sure they do their homework well, before presenting the re- solution to the OFA board of directors. He also criticized "pro- paganda sheets" which are telling the public that if the government would get rid of marketing boards, "then everything will be alright," Mr, Wall said nothing is needed more than getting the farmer's story across to the public. TAX EQUALIZATION In other business, the fed- eration received replies from six of the county's 16 town- ship councils about the 1980 revised tax equalization fac- tors. The federation wrote to the councils to see if the farm organization and the councils could co-ordinate action on a campaign on the factors which are expected to in- crease taxes in rural areas. The councils from Howick, Goderich, Usborne, McKil- lop and Stephen indicated they would be interested in a joint meeting with federation members on the issue. SUPERIOR MEMORIALS ESTABLISHED OVER 50 YEARS Hay Township council re- sponded that they weren't opposed to the new equaliz- ation factors. Hay is the only Huron County township which won't face any real change in equalization fac- tors. The federation members voted to send a letter to the 16 township councils indicat- ing the need for a joint meeting to discuss the issue at some future date. The federation also receiv- ed a response from Minister of Agriculture Lorne Hen- derson to a letter sent to the minister criticizing his stand on farm severances for retir- ing farmers. The minister told the tt Merle Gunby said, "These so-called farm severances are usually only used for that purpose for less than five years." Frank Wall told the meet- ing statistics indicate three or four years is all the time those severances remain in the farmer's hands. Gerry Fortune asked, "Does Mr. Henderson own a farm and is he thinking of retiring soon?" Max Demeray suggested when the retired farmer is done with the severed parcel of land, it should revert back to the original farm. Mr. Wall said, "then we don't need a severance." Bob Robinson requested relief program in the Wood- stock area, To date, the Huron County Federation has raised ap- proximately $16,000 to con- tribute to the disaster relief fund, in addition to sending feed and manpower to assist farmers whose farms were damaged in the August tor- nado, The Oxford Federation ex- pressed concern that the costs of trucking feed to the damaged farms won't be covered by the disaster relief fund. The Huron County feder- ation members voted to give support to the Oxford County federation's request that transportation costs be matched or else covered with funds from the disaster relief fund. The members also elected their four remaining direc- tors on the Huron County federation executive. The directors are Tony McQuail of West Wawanosh, Jim McIntosh of Tuckersmith, and Walter Elliott and Jim Hunter of East Wawanosh township.

He said, "A farmer should be allowed a lot on which to retire or a lot to help get his children started on the farm, 1 am not against a farmer building the extra house on his farm if he wants to but I think he should have the option_of an extra lot." Jim McIntosh said he didn't feel the minister had backed up his arguments for severance in the letter, that the federation reply to Mr. Henderson's letter ask- ing the minister to state what protection there is for the farmer who owns the farm the lot is severed from when someone else buys the lot. The federation is concern- ed that when severed proper- ty is purchased by non - farmers, the owners will complain about farm ac- tivities and odours.
