Brad Kennedy of the Londesboro Lions says the Lions group have planned an auction sale in late October and a dance November 21 in the Goderieh Community Centre. The Lions approached the hospital and had Steve Cooke of the fund raising committee come and talk to the group in June, Mr. Cook outlined the renovating and new addition slated for the hospital and also showed the group a catalogue of equipment that will be needed at the hospital. The Lions agreed to raise as much as possible and then pick out a piece of equipment that would serve the community and remind the group of the help that had been given. Mr. Cook and his committee for the hospital are looking at raising 5353,000 by publk subscription, with the remainder of the 5866,000 bill coming from grants and other government assistance programs. "We are hoping to get the work started this fall" said Mr. Cook, Monday. "The pians have been approved and all we need now is some of the funding to come in so we can start." The hospital serves more than 12,000 dients in the area. The addition will house the new emergency wing, and the physiotherapy and X-ray departments will be redone. The total expense will include this relocation and equipping the areas.

Last Thursday Mr. McCallum borrowed a number of items and flower pots from locals to make the setting complete. (Photo by Hamilton) Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston The editorial cartoon pictured what a lot of Canadians feel. Three surgeons worked over a "patient" labelled "the economy." The three surgeons looked like Prime Moister Trudeau, Finance Minister Allan MacEachen and Energy Minister Marc Lalonde but it was hard to tell for sure: their surgical masks weren't over their mouths but over their eyes. There is little faith in the government these days. The dollar has been falling, inflation and interest rates have teen soaring and the government put us through a lengthy postal strike only to give in in the long run and give the postal union nearly everything it wanted. And while people batt home are sick with worry the Prime Minister is in Africa vacationing and Mr. MacEachen is vacationing back home in Nova Scotia, both apparently unconcerned. Back home Joe Clark has been con- cerned alright: worry spread all over his boyish face (except maybe at the cornersof his mouth which he tries to keep from grinning at the mess the Liberals are in). k's hard to take Mr. Clark too seriously however because while he complains about high interest rates he defended them only a year or so ago when he was in power. He got in to power of course because he was blasting the governing Liberals for their high interest rate and the Liberals got back in power by blasting the Tories for their high interest rates. Perhaps the thing that has Mr. Clark so concerned is that there's not an election in sight so he can once again get a change in governments without even having to rewrite his speeches from two elections ago (perhaps he could also keep the cost of the election down by selling copies of his speeches from the last election to the Prime Minister who could then not bother with a speechwriter.) A CYCLE OF FEAR A cycle of fear is starting in the country, the kind of thing that makes a bad situation worse. Every time a prune minister has gone outside the bounds ria of the country in the last decade people have said he should be staying home looking after the mess here instead. Most times this is silly nonsense but now is probably an exception: The government has given the impression it doesn't really are and that makes people worry even more. You can see the signs of panic in the press, not just in attacks by editorial writers and cartoonists, but in Ionia and beget lists of letters to the editan, articles tom academics and business leaders. The glovers meat must do something to give coalidence back to the country because if it doesn't, the panic will see some of ib necessary poems washed sway coag with Its stupid ones. It is frightening to see the Lanaatan dollar in such horrible shape and already "experts" are coming up with solutions. The dollar is weak, they say, because of the huge number of dollars going out of the country to pay for industries being taken over here in Canada by Canadians. Their "solution" is to slow, or even stop the take-over of our industry by Canadians, whether they be government agencies or private business acting on incentives from government. Instead they would make the incentives good for foreigners to invest in Canada and buy up even more of our country. These same "experts" from the financ- ial community pile up praise on the actions d Ronald Reagan down in the states with his policy of short term pain for long term gain. It seems from here that if Canadians want to gain control of their economy they have to be willing to pay the price in the shat term for the long terra gain. During the 1950 s we had the pleasure of seeing our dollar stronger than the Americans' but what did it get usf The dollar was stronger because Americans were bringing their money in to buy up the majority of our businesses. We were fooling ourselves with our smugness and we've been paying ix it ever since. If, as some experts say, it doesn't matter who owns your industry as king as they provide jobs, why are the - Americans so - w .d when Canadians start buying up their businesses( WEAK DOLLAR If the reason the dollar is so weak is the Canadianization of our own industry then it seems a reasonable price to pay. U we are going to reverse put mistakes we can't expect it to be easy. But we must control aur own country or the price we pay will be worse. Mel Hurtig, the Edmonton publish- er and former leader of the committee for tan independent Canada pointed out recently that the federal government set its policy to buy batt 50 per cent of the Canadian oil industry not so much from desire u necessity. The government suddenly realized, be claimed, that with the rise in oil prices since the OPEC carte! pt going in the early 1970's, the value of the on vaned by foreign companies but stip In the ground, had rhea to alarming heights. The companies could literally bay up and Canada with their windfall pins on oil. td they chose not to keep their mosey in Canada the dollar would plunge anyway toes the exit d profits.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, AUGUST 19, 1901 — A5 "The prettiest house on the line" Workmanship in old homes becomes evid- ent as the layers start coming apart. This home is being taken down and is located on the farm owned by Boyd Taylor, east of Blyth. Once reputed to be the prettiest house on the line, it has been in disrepair for a number of years. The window frames are ornate and the house sits securely on a stone foundation. (Photo by Hamilton) Morris lady disputes payment Morris Township council had a visit from Emma Bird and her daughter Barbara Jean Ives of R.R. 2 Blyth when they met in regular council session last Wednesday night. They came to receive payment for some sheep of theirs which had been worried by dogs. When the time came to give Mrs. Bird the money for the sheep which had been injured or killed, there was some disagreement on the amount she was to be paid. A livestock evaluator from Toronto had sent his report back to council with a price of $300 fora claim on May 31. Mrs. Bird said the man from Toronto on the day be inspected the sheep had left a piece of paper with her which evaluated the sheep at more than that. This paper was not signed. Reeve Bill Elson told her that council had no authority to change the amount and that if she wanted it changed she would have to go to a county judge. "1 don't think I'm getting a fair deal. I don't know what the rest of you think. l think was decent. l did everything 1 could do. This Is the rawest deal I've gotten out of Moms Township in 74 yeah. 1'U take your cheques but it won't do you a damn bit of good," she said telling them she would take her story to the newspapers. In other council business, a grant of $400 was given to the Huron County Federation of Apiculture. A motion was passed to grant $1097 to Wingham recreation for the Morris Township children who swim in Wingham. Moms Township received $8223 in swimming registration fees and will forward that amount plus a one-third grant to Wingham Recreation. The township will receive this one-third grant back from the Ministry of Culture and Recreation. Tile drain loans applications were approv- ed for James Riley and Charles Higgins. subject to the availability of funds. Council gave a grant of $50 to the Huron Plowmen's Association to go toward the plowing match being held September 18 and 19 on the farm of Viola Adams of Brussels.

A6 — THE BLYTH STANDARD AUGUST 19, 1981 Playoff action set for Hullett teams As the Huliett teams get set for playoff action which will occur over the next two weekends, several seem to be peaking at just the right time. In Squirt Action the front running Expos kept their winning streak alive as they nipped the Orioles. The Tig- ers upset the high flying Blue J,vs as they stopped the Jays w ening string of six games. the Mets and Dodg- ers played Thursday evening with the Dodgers coming out on top. This will be the final week of regular squirt action with a round robin playoff set to start August 24th. In Peewee action the Pee- wee girls kept their winning tradition as they edged Clin• ton. The tows were Tess fortunate as the Radford Jays lost to Stanley and Allen's "A ''s looked half asleep as they dropped a game to Goderich Township. The Bantam boys took an 8-1 lead into the fifth inning and then watched as Goderich Town• ship came hack with 14 runs and took the game by a I5• I 1 score. The Midget boys played an exhibition game and a regular season game. In the exhib• ;tion the Boys took a 6.1 lead and then held on as Winthrop stormed back. The final was " b for our bows. In their regular games it was another one •run victory. this time unfortunately it was in fasour of the Stanley team. Besides their regular game the Mid- get Boys arc entered in a tournament in Vanastra this coming weekend. The Midget girls traveled to Stanley and came away with an easy victory. The playoff picture looks like this • each diamond in our league will be hosting one tournament either on August 22nd orAugust 29th for one division. The winner of each tournament will be declared league champion. The Pee - we, girls tournament will be holo in Varna on August 22nd. The Bantam boys tour- nament "'ill be play ed also on the 22 id but at Auburn. Similarily on August 29th the Pee u ee boys will play in Holmesville. the Midget boys will travel to Benmiller for their tournament while Lon- desboro will play host to the Midget girls Tournament. The ladies teams were both eliminated in playoff action last week as Auburn proved too strong for Summerhill while Londesbo ro fell victim to the Brusse Is ladies.

WORKSHOP CREW -- The Blyth Centre for the Arts among the numerous activities that It already sponsers is also a spot for playwrights to hold workshops on new plays to see if the production could be feasible for future programs. Ray Storey and his group are working on a play about a musical about a country girl making it big in the business. It is called Country Corral and if it feels comfortable and can be worked out financially Blyth patrons may be getting a Zook -see at it in the' future. Taking part in the workshop are (back Tett) Frank Scott, Allan Meuse, Richard Greenblatt, John Roby, and Hardee T. Linehan. (front) Patricia Vanstone, Ray Storey, Denise Kennedy, and Carol Zorro. (Photo by Hamilton) Growing up with time HE'S RICHT for once. Prime Minister Trudeau suggested a while back that Canadians had never had it so good, As usual, his rather abrasive bluntness raised a good many hackles, but by golly, he was right. At least in one sense•materialistically, Despite our increasing panic about infla- tion and pollution and the shrinking dollar encs the increasing taxes, we're so much bet.•1r off in the sense of worldly goods than most other people in the world, that our gloom and doom attitude would be laughable, were it not a h it pitiable. Certainly interest rates are horrific, but our ability to pay them is probably Netter than it was 35 years alto, when standard interest rates were about five Per cent, When 1 went into business about that time, I had to borrow almost S20,000, with no security (try that sometime), and my take-home income was about $35 a week. It was like purchasing your own personal albatross and tying it about your own neck. Certainly it's a pity that young couples have little hope today of buying a house. even with both of them working. When I was their age. my chances of buying a house were just as remote, or mores►. And in those days, very few couples had two incomes, because we could not plan our family, as you can today. (Ih, we tried, but every so often another little stranger would pop into the family. and there was no such thing as the mother dropping the infant on a baby -fitter, or into a day-care centre, and rushing hack to her job. Our first home was a one -room flat, with a folding couch, a two+ -burner gam stove. and a bathroom up the stairs and along a hall in which people were frying things, mostly onion. 11 cost 350 a month, and our total Income was SHo a month. Our neat abode was a step up, Fo+ f70 a month, we had a real bedroom, a real kitchen and a real dining -living room. All furnished from second-hand dealers, but with a precious private entrance, * bit of backyard and a loopy old landlady, Then we took a real leap, sharing a house with another young ooupk, each of us with a child. Two bedrooms, living room, kitchen, share the bath. And get up every morning in winter, light the stove In the living -room, thaw the water•pipes, and get a real blaze going in the kitchen stme, after tossing the Sugar Et Spice by Bill Smiley half -frozen infant in with his mother until the place was not unbearably cold. We thought we were in clover. And then another place with another young couple and then another with another young couple. By this time, there were four of us and four of them, You could hear their kids screaming and they could hear yours. t You could hear the other couple fighting and they could hear you. Finally, we had a house all to ourselves, complete with mortgage. As I recall, the mortgage payments were S35 a month, practically for life. And believe it or not, we fell behind in our payments. But we loved it: This place had a real furnace and a fair amount of property. The furnace was of the coal variety, and from trying to keep it going, I finally realized why my father, a gentle, quiet spoken man, used to go to the basement and send up a volcano of profanity accompanied by shovel•banging of the old furnace. My point is that it took us nearly 10 years to acquire a real house of our own, and we were still up to the navel in debt. Along about the eighth year, we bought our first car, second-hand, naturally. I wonder how many young people today realize that in most cases their parents went through the same thing, living in sleuy little apartments, doing without so they could buy a home someday. I wonder how many young couples today do not have at least one car. It seems that they want instant security: house, furniture, appliances, automobile, holidays in the south, and a short work week, right after they are married. They feel deprived if they don't have a patio, an expensive barbecue outfit, a power mower, a freezer, a boat, a van, you name it. And because your friendly bank manager or jovial Anna company practically force bans on them, they get in to deep that when a bit of a crunch or recession comes along, they weep and wall and demand that the government do something about it. I worsted my ass to the bone, about 60 hour A week, and so did my wife, before we could afford any of these things. In thos4 days your smiling bank manager wore an habitual expression of dour disapproval. You'd swear the loan was coming out of his own pocket. He might loan you 500 if you had 10,000 in security. How many kids today get out and make their own money? I know many teenagers do, but most younger kids get an allowance to blow on pop. junk foods, records, and those star war electronic games which have replaced the old pinball machines. How many kids today in this country ever go hungry? How many farmers, despite their outcries, are forced off the land because they can't meet their mortgages, compared to the Dirty Thirties? How many billions of dollars do we spend on booze, cigarettes and other poisons, when people in other countries are literally starving to death. Think it over, friends, and give thanks. At the beginning of this polemic, i had to admit Trudeau was right. it hurt to do so. But 1 did add the word materialistically. I think we never had It so bad in the other direction: spiritually.

The 17 hon- oured guests were seated at a semi circle of small tables facing a large table on which were twio birthday cakes. A prelude of piano selections by Mrs. Dow Vair added greatly to the joyous occasion. Mrs. Cecil Coultes, social convenor. welcomed all pre- sent with a special welcome to the invited guests. She then opened the meeting with a very familiar verse. "This is the day which the Lord hath made. We will rejoice and be glad in it." The hymn "Now tha nk we all our God," was sung followed by prayer written by Helen Stei- ner Rice, read by Mrs. Leslie Bolt. Upon arriving each person was given a sheet of ten axioms; now these were read and studied together. Two dwelt upon more than the others perhaps, were "God is glorified not by our groans but by our thanksgiving" and secondly, "Selfishness is the greatest curse of the human rare." This latter one Mrs. Coultes preferred to re word Thankfulness, appreciation and sharing can be The Light of the World. A short but very enjoyable program consisted of songs by Clarke Johnston, accom- panied by mrs. Norman Coultes, readings by Mrs. Garner Nicholson, Mrs. William Kelly and Mrs, Vic- tor Youngblut, piano solos by Jennifer and Denise Coultes and mouth organ selections by Mrs. Mel Bradburn with Mrs. Norman Coultes at the piano. Mrs. Earl Anderson on behalf of the U.C.W. thanked all who had helped in any way to make our party a success. She invited everyone to at- tend the next unit meeting.

We would like your help and suggestions now, in an early study of alternative plans for future transmission lines in southwestern Ontario. The transmission study will look at the alternatives from many points of view, including cost, wise use of land, and effects on the environment. The study is an early stage of a process which will take about three years. It will lead first to a recommendation to government on the best transmission option. Eventually, new transmission lines will be built. Because we need your input now we've prepared a special kit for you that outlines th alternatives.
