(Photo by Hamilton) Horticultural Society Review year's work The annual meeting of Blyth Horticultural Society was held on Jan. 13th at Memorial Hall. Reports of the year's activities were given by the Secretary and of income and expenditures by the Treasurer. A total of 32575.20 was taken in this year from memberships (375), donations, grants, and Flower Show. Added to a carry-over of 3615.73 at the end of 1979, the treasurer handled 33190.93 in 1980. Of that amount 52898.75 was spent, so that there is smaller balance to start 1981 than a year ago. Rev. Cecil Wittkh was present to open the meeting with prayer and to install the newly elected officers. The retiring Directors formed the nominating committee who presented these officers: President: Harve McDowell; first via: Harve McCallum; 2nd Vice: Mary Walden; Secretary: Hazel Elliott; Treasurer: Ella Rkhmond; Directors for 2 years: Mary Holland, Goerge Harrower, Viola Haines, Dan McInnes, John Hessel- wood; Directors for 1 yr., Mr. and Mrs. Bill Aiken, Harold Cook, Doreen McCallum and Joe Mahon.

Volume 90 - No. 3 Hiker conquers the Crest Trail BY RHEA HAMILTON Ws like walking on the top of the world. Hikers from around the world meet to sample and savour the ruggedness of the trail and the breathtaking beauty. The Pacific Crest Trail is unique in that it follows a mountain range for 2600 miles down the length of the United States. Gari Sottiaux, Londesboro, knows every kxot on that trail after he completed his hike from the Canadian border to the Mexican border in a little over four months time. It all started with an article some years ago in National Geographic on the Pacific Crest Trail which started Gary contemplat• ing taking a hike along that very same trail. 'three years ago he finished two thirds of the trail hut last fall finished the whole trail from start to finish. Last spring Gary was laid off from his job in Stratford and decided this was the time to make that hike. On July 15 he started his trek at the Washington -British Columbia border. But planning for the moment started six months before. The trail is built and maintained by the U.S. Forest service and follows as closely as possible the range with smaller trails leading off to sights of spectacular beauty. Gary came to regard those sidebar trails as just so many more miles to take and kept. mostly to the main trail. Friends were not as excited as Gary about the trip and he couldn't convince anyone to take the hike with him so off he went on his Own. Like many trips there were some stories to tell and Gary kept a diary and packed a small pocket camera to record the sites and friends he met along the way. "Everyone is so friendly to hikers along the trail" Gary remembers. So friendly in fact that in some spots he was invited to supper and even shared Thanksgiving with a family in the California Sierras. One of the most important items on the hiker's list is the guide book which is complete with topographical maps. pictures and detailed description of the trail. Hikers come to rely also on dehydrated foods and the small villages along the trail cannot offer enough selection so parcels are made up by the hiker and mailed before hand to certain points along the trail. The hiker merely plans his trip and picks up his rations at the postal stops along the trail. The guide book includes a list of postal stations with addresses for hikers' conven- ience. .Gary was concerned with the border regulations for parcels and instead choose to have a California firm called Trail Foods box up his rations according to his specifications and send them out to. his proposed stops. Postal authorities are familiar with this after years of serving hikers along the trail and hold the parcels until the hiker shows up. Dried foods included lasagna. Gary's favourite, and pork and beans and stews. A little hot water, mix with package contents and, presto, supper is served. Breakfasts included hot cereal like cream of wheat. All of this was heated up with the aid of a portable butane tank heater. The only drawback was that Gary had to take the tank to bed at night to keep it above freezing. The butane would not ignite in temperatures below freezing. MOUNTAIN WEATHER Which brings us to another thought. With such a long journey surely the weather was against the lone hiker or, as he became known on the trail, "The Pilgrim." But the weather did co-operate and sunny skies were the order for most of the trip..Of the four months the only bad weather was snow for two weeks in the high slopes of California and forestry officials recommended that Gary not continue on the trail but hitchhike around the difficult spot of 300 miles which he did. Photos of his site one evening show a small blue pup tent and pack in a forest nearing. The next shot is of the following morning and the ground and trees around are white with fresh snow. • But that wasn't the only time Gary crawled out of his tent to a surprise. During the first leg of his trek Gary stopped early one day to rest up. Equipped with a pocket book he crawled into his tent to read a little. The time was about three when he made camp. The next thing he noticed was that it grew quite dark and he heard the soft patter on his tent of what he believed was rain. After a time he became aware that his tent was not showing any signs of wetness and when he crawled out a surprise met his eyes. "Everything was white including my tent." recalls Gary. For forty five minutes Mount St. Helens spewed ash as far as the area, 45 miles away, where Gary had camped for the evening. Gary forget his fatigue and packed up his gear. The nearest highway was five miles further along the trail and a campsite another mile after that. Somehow Gary found the energy and moved that night to what he felt was a safer location. Fres are not recommended along the trail and forest fires had been a problem on part of the trail Gary traversed. Some evenings the temperatures dropped to eighteen degrees farenheit, but Gary kept reasonably warm in his long underwear, thermal booties and down jacket.

Now if the insulation above can dry out we are back .to where we started. Like others we have to make an effort to keep the ice clear on the roof.

(Photo by Oke) Blyth council Councillor Bill Manning has viewed the clerk's office facilities and made a motion that a bit of renova- ting was in order to get more privacy for the clerk and a more professional atmos- phere in the office. Among the suggestions was a coun- ter in the front with a flip -up portion and a partial partition for the clerk. A motion was made to have some plans made and estimates pre- pared. The Maitland Valley Conservation Authority sub- mitted reports for their meet- ings held in November and December. Blyth Council endorsed a resolution from the township of North Burgess concerning absentee ownership of land. The right to run for public office is held by non-resident land owners and the town• ship suggested the province change the ruling to protect the intersts of those who live permanently in an area. Council filed a resolution from Haldimand Norfolk (Cayuga) requesting support for a demand that an envir- onmental assessment study be held into the case of permanent liquid waste site for Cayuga. A petition from St. Albert. Alberta. that municipal governments unite to over- come the impasse between the provinces and the federal government was filed. The pillars at Memorial Hall were reported on by Councillor Bill Howson. He found out it is possihk to cover the posts with lath and gypsum with plaster to meet fire regulations. The job could cost between briefs 5500 to 51,000 with labour costs taking the greater por- tion of the bill. The matter is to be left up to the hall board. There has been a problem with the heating system in the hall and the clerk ex- plained to council that the architect has phoned the company) Weishar Plumbing and Heating. Listowel, and that they will be checked. The heating system is still under warranty. An emer- gency switch has been thrown on the system which keeps the heat in the build- ing at 65 degrees but is uncomfortable for anyone sit- ting playing cards.

We've all heard stories about teenagers and there's a growing realization that many of us are too dependent on the prescribed and over-the-counter drugs that line our medicine cabinets (and liquor cupboards.) Now along comes an interim report from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario that includes a report on an example of drug abuse that makes the blood boll and the mind reel. Much to its credit, the College report, which is circulated to newspapers, includes the findings of its Discipline Committee, the group which hears misconduct charges against fellow physicians. The drug abuse case, in short summary, concerns a doctor who treated a two and a half year old patient, who was considered to be hyperactive, with "some 27 different drugs singly and in combination over a three to four month period." Some of the drugs were not recommended for kids; many were prescribed at the upper limit of safety for adults. No family assessment was done though the reports says it was "critical from both a diagnostic and therapeutic standpoint, particular ly where the parents appear, as here, to have been a substantial part of the problem contributing to the condition of the child." The doctor was also criticized for not seeking expert advice (he's a GP and much of his practise involves treating patients with learning disabilities and speech defects(; he was found guilty of professional misconduct and reprimanded. We hope the doctor learned something and that this particular horror story won't be repeated. We are also not for a minute suggesting that this sort of error is a common problem nor are we attempting to tar a whole profession with a mistake made by one of its number. But we're really concerned about that a two and a half year old child and others like him who have the misfortune to come under treatment of a misguided physician who dispenses drugs to excess and the other components of the healing procedure in much too tiny quantities. THE HURON EXPOSITOR A new presidency begins this week in the U.S. How long will it be before it seems just like the old one? The American people voted overwhelmingly in November to turn out the government of Jimmy Carter, a government they saw as weak and ineffective. They looked to a return to the glory days of the American past and voted in Ronald Reagan with his promises to clean up the whole mesa. The question now is not whether or tlot Reagan can bring it off, but how long it will be before the American people will turn against Ronald Reagan as they turned against Jimmy Carter and Gerry Ford before him. The sad reality will likely soon begin to set in: despite Reagan's optimistic, rose- coloured dreams, America today doesn't call the shots the way it once did. Other people in the world now have some ' of the power, both militarily and econmically. Reagan has sold the American people a dream. Dreams die `quickly these days, particularly when he comes to power as a man far from the darting of the media. Remember Richard Nixon? He too came to power despite, not because of, the media in the U.S. The media sat cooling its heels for a long time but when the opportunity came with Watergate, they pinned Nixon to the wall. That's the way Nixon saw it d course but there is a lot of truth to it. Nixon was ont Pacific Crest Trail looking down on Cliff Lake, Oregon. Hiker conquers Continued from page 1 But after a few hours on the trail the next morning he would be stripped down to his hiking t -shirt and shorts. PACKING LIGHT Anyone who travels realizes the im• portance of packing it Tight. Gary kept his wardrobe limited to a set of hiking shorts and shirt and a "going to town" shin and pants and a few pairs of socks. When the trail crossed over a highway with a village nearby. Gary would make a stop to a grocery store first to treat himself to a bit of fresh fruit or store bought baking and then to a Iaundr►mat. It was during these stops that Gary would enjoy a whole pie or a bite of hamburger. Then it was hack on the trail for a few more days. A majority of hikers choose to start at the Mexican border and work their way north so Gan met more hikers going the opposite direction to himself. The journey was made alone with the exception of a father and two sons who Gary trekked with for a few hours and then carried on alone. The trail winds up. down and around the peaks reaching to heights of 6.000 feet and 9,000 feet and upwards. Wildlife abounded along the trail and deer and elk were familiar sights. One night Gary hung his pack and food up in a tree to avoid attracting bears to his site Some evenings he would wake to hear shuffling or footsteps outside of his tent but a shout would cause the movement to fade into the bush as the Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston an honest man and deserved what he got. Yet how do you reconcile the fact that the media -darling John Kennedy managed to have his less -than -model private life out of the press when apparently it was a poorly kept secret among those who knew him? Jimmy Carter too came to office without the backing of the U.S. media. He was a media event, of course the nun from the south who grew peanuts, but he wasn't from the kind of background comfortable to the media. I remember hearing the reporters comment about their doubts of Carter when he was being sworn in four years ago and knowing it was only a matter of time. The first misstep and the press will jump on the man and from then on the downhill slide begins with every defeat or goof getting big press. every victory getting little attention. We've seen it in the U.S. with Lyndon Johnston, Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter and in Canada with John Diefenbaker, Pierre Trudeau and Joe Clark. The press wants to be the king makers and king breakers. it's enough to make one sorry for Ronald Reagan. ••••.• Listening to CTV's WS television program the other nighty you would think a grave danger was Wing the U.S This grave danger is in the form of the conservative religious lobby in that country that openly backed Reagan in his election and undertook to destory several liberal politcians who didn't believe what they wanted them to believe. What struck me about the piece was its hysterical tone much the same kind of tone that once was heard by those who thought there was a Communist under every bed. Now I don't agree with many of the beliefs of the conservative group either but from the mouth of reporter Henry Champ the word "Morality" sounded almost like a dirty word. Truing to figure out who's liberal and who's conservative any more gives me a headache. We have liberals, for instance, who believe in free speech but want to ban groups like the Ku Klux Klan from having their say, not matter how sick that say might be. We have religious conservatives who back the gun lobby in the U.S. which says there should be no tougher gun controls in the U.S. So we will contin'u to live with shocking statistics that more peopk die in the U.S. every year from gunshot wonds that dies in V etman. And yet these same religious conservatives set out to destroy liberal politicians who support abortion legislation. On the other hand, they want to bring back the death peanity. On the other hand the liberals support gun controls and want to stop the killing of criminals but see nothing wrong with the killing of millions of unborn babies every year. 1 find it all very confusing. creature scurried away. When you carry' everything on your hack. souvenirs are kept to a light minimum. Besides a hit of volcanic ash. Gary also has a page from a small paper in Wrightwood South California which publishes pictures of the hikers that come through during thc year. Gare has circled the ones he met on the trail and included notes besides others.

TIME TO THINK When reflecting back on the whole cxpenence Gary cavi smile hut he can't forget the difficult moments of cold and fatigue. While hiking he spent a lot of time thinking and maintains that he grown to know himself better. The experience has left Gary much more appreciative of the nature of wildlife and the value of natural beauty. His photos show grand views of valleys and mountain streams. Friends met along the way smile back at him and already he has received letters from new found friends, For anyone interested thc trip comes highly recommended and if you have the chance to talk to Gary. the excitement of the journey is enough to send others packing along the great Pacific Crest Trail. •••.••• The futurists say the day will come when .we could have instant democracy, where the people could be asked how they feel about and specific issue and by pushing a button on their television controls send a message to their government. The greatest argument against this, I think, was shown this week by the hostage settlement with Iran. If an instant vote could have been taken more than a year ago just after the hostages had been taken I'm sure the majority of Americans would have voted for war with Iran. At the very least thousands of lives would have been lost by such action. At worst we might have had an escalating action that would lead to a much bigger war. As it was a few men died in a rescue attempt and the hostages had to suffer imprisoment for more than a year but the only real damage done in the long term was to American pride. Better a little hurt pride than war.
