Volume 90 — No. 44 Huron to collect taxes twice yearly BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE GODERICH-By a vote of 1' to i I, Huron County Council turned down a recommen• dation to collect its tax levy from municipal- ities four times a year. Following the lead set by Huron County Board of Education. council's executive committee made its recommendation. which Goderich Deputy Reeve Robert Allen said would improve the cash flow for the county. Several reeves said tax collection four times a year would be hard for farmers. One reeve said farmers. unlike urban dwellers do not receive a weekly salary therefore making tax payments four times a year a hardship. Presently there are only two municipalit- ies in the county collecting taxes once a year, other collect taxes twice a year and others four times.

The U of G geography professor who is a specialist in rural Ontario communities said much research has over• looked the changing residential. entertain• ment and tourist functions of these communi ties. Mr. Dahms said while most research continually points to declining numbers of farm equipment dealers and agricultural service industries in rural communities. many of these communities have large restaurants, hotels or other entertainment centres that draw customers from hundreds of miles away. Blyth had 81 business establishments and a population of 927 in 1891. compared to 52 business establishments and a population of 870 this year. The early 1890's is generally considered the peak of economic activity in the Huron County farming area.

Auburn man well-known veteran Editors Note: The following article was submitted by Sandy McDonald of Goderich who specializes in research into the history of W.W.I. veterans. Former World War One Canadian O'seas army sold- ier, Orville Free, of R.R. t, Auburn, who is presently a patient in "Alexandr.•a/ Marine/General hospital", at Goderich, recovering from a broken hip, is the man pictured Even during his hazardous job of "soldering" while a member of Canada's over- seas (W.W.I.) reserve army, (Pte.) Ory, Free suffered no such serious injury as the one whick hospitalized him, about a month ago. Orville, at 84, is the youngest and only surviving member of the late Geo. H. and Victoria (Pollock) Free's family. More than six decades ago, the former "Bervie (Bruce cty.) boy" was on a Christmas furlough from his army headquarters, near London, England; when he sent the 1918 "picture / post- card" to "the folks back home". Private 0. Free ad- dressed it, "To Alma and Olive, also to Mother. a Merry Xmu"; printing, on the card's reverse, tells the name of "Jno. Emberson, Wimbledon" as the photo./ studio. Besides his two sisters, named on the 1918 Xmas Post -card, Orville had five brothers; "I've met all of them, at one time or another", stated Orville's daughter, (Mrs. L. Plaetzer)--except uncle Wil. fred (Free)". When interviewed, about two weeks ago, at his bed- side in a 2nd. floor room of 'The A.M. and G. hospital', the "Auburn octogenarian" was wide awake; Orville was then briefly questioned about his 'Great War' veiny duty; "1 served with 'The 4th Reserves' regiment, in Eng- land", stated the ex•Over• seas infantryman; however, the former '4th reservist' was quick to admit his military, duty was not volun- tary; olun•t ; "1 was conscripted u soon as I turned 18", he added. (according to information from Orv.'s daughter, his 18th birthday would have occurred March 30th, 1915); During the first World War, the difference between "enlisting" and being "con- scripted" was elimination of choice in the latter system of recruiting; as a conscripted recruit, 0. Free would have received, in the mail, a notice from 'The Department of Militia/Defence, Ottawa', to report, to the nearest army recruiting center; for Orville, and thousands of oth.v young 'Western Ontarians', the nearest army (training) camp would have been at London, Ontario. Private Orv. Free did well even to reach England; cand• idates for O'seas armed ser- vices, whether enlisted or drafted, were plentiful dur ing the Great War; as a result, W.W.I. recruiting of. Beers could afford to be somewhat "Choosy" in their selection of 'volunteers' for O'seas duty. (While in 'The reserves', both in Canada and Over- seas, Pte. 0. Free demon- strated his physical fitness by regularly holding, one in each hand, straight out,' at arm's length, a long•barelkd 'Ross' rifle). Recently, when loaning, her Dad's Great War army photo "ex-G.D.C.i. girt„ Jean (Plaetzer) displayed his 'Ashfield Medal': a bronze replica of a Maple Leaf, the Great War memento carries the wording. "4th Reserv- es", "Overseas, Canada"; it's not a medal to be worn but is meant rather, for decorating a shelf or "chest d drawers"; it's two legs, in the shape of rifles, make it a "self -standing" decoration. With a name like "FREE" it was only natural 'the returned man' should choose "agricultural 'Free' enter- prise" as a post W.W.I. vocation; for several decad• es, on the '4th concession of Ashfield', the Dungannon - area man spectaltzed in production of registered beef Cattle and YorksMte hogs. "We used kr' export our Cattle to Shorthorn herdsmen ail over The United States", recalled Mrs. Plaetzer; the 'es -Dungannon girl" added, "Oh, it's not considered anything wonderful, now, to ship livestock across the border but when my Dad was doing it, it was (unusual)". Orvilk married Ida Sillib from Shepardton, April 16 in 1924. She predeceased him in 1979. Orville did not maintain lis father's "large family" tradition; his daughter, Jean, (Ma. L. Plaetzer) is his one and only child; he has, however, three grand -child - ten; they are; Sheryl, a 'registered nurse', with 'The iv8ddlesex Cty. health unit', who is now Ms. 'Terry' Foran,of St. Thomas. Ont.: Wanda. a 'dental hygeinist' who graduated. five years ago, ,from a Waterloo com• munity college course in Dental nursing': his youngest grandchild, "Larry" is pre. sently employed at a 'corn. Before Pte. Orv. Free and other '4th reservists' could be given a chance to "du their bit" at the front, the 'Nov. Ilth cease-fire' made their active miliatary duty unnecessary; however, Pte, 0. Free had to remain "In uniform" for nearly another year after the Great War had ended; (information on the back of a framed picture in the home of Ms. L. Plaetzer indicates her Dad's army discharge occured in July, 1919). Although not a native of the township, Orville was ane of several "Ashfield O'seas servicemen" honored by Ashfield's post World War One councillors; upon processing plant' near Lon- don; however, when speak - g, last week, of their sou (Larry) Mrs. L.

Mind you it was with semi -welcome arms that we returned. While 1 was having a bit of trouble dealing with homesickness a week before we flew home from England Klaus was prepared to move in anywhere and stay for a year or two in Paris, or London if not somewhere hidden in the beauty of the German Black Forest. Like all travellers we dis• covered that the tentative list of places we wanted to see was far too long and as we travelled we made a few slashes after a long discuss. ion over excellent food. Our first stop (nonstop) was in Frankfurt where an aunt and uncle met us as well as their daughter and her husband. Fortunately they had a 20 year old picture of Klaus and one ten years old and were quick to recognize him as we came out of the flight arrivals sections. What a delightful greeting. People were hugging and kissing and shaking hands and I didn't know a soul. We stayed in Germany a total of three weeks of out of our five and it left the greatest impression on me. Klaus has many relatives, the bulk of which are located in the Black Forest, So we had a royal tour of the intimate lifestyle of Germans. While you can't always talk about the weather and the terrific food, topics started to develop on a greater scale as Klaus remembered more and more of his native tongue. By the end of the three weeks he would turn to me and ask something in German and expect an answer. Sometimes I would fool him and under- stand. We kept a diary andfrom that we will be able to refresh our memories while we look at upteen slides of the places and people. My first impressions of Germany were of cleanliness. It was a Saturday and in the villages we drije through to get to uncle Gunther's we saw many men and women out sweeping the street in fro-eof their home. You never saw delapidated buildings (that is the start of another story) and many of the walkways or steps were covered in colour- ful ceramic tile and made for a bright point that competed with the abundance of flowers everywhere. Our first day was 34 hours long and after a restless night we made an attempt at lively talk the second day and found it a bit lacking. Germans turned their clocks back one hour in the last weekend of September so we gained an extra hour of sleep. I am afraid we needed it. Sleep is another subject. Feather duvets are relatively new here for the most Canad- ians. But in Germany they are as common as blankets and sheets here. First of all. not many homes have central heating. There are individual heaters for the rooms but heat is not something they let out with lightly. Our first night we stripped quickly because the room was so cool. A duvet is a feather filled sack (in the simplest terms), usually ac- companied by a huge 30 inch square pillow. While Klaus threatened to take a picture each night he fortunately held off. All you can see of anyone in these beds is a ruft of hair at the top;,,The bulky cover completey aides any form and if not for the top of the head peeking out from the top of the bed you would have a hard time seeing anyone in the bed. But they are so warm. Within seconds they had warmed up and they were the hardest things to leave in the morning to hop out into the cold room and get dressed for breakfast. There are no dawdlers for the table in German homes. And food. I don't know about the other half of this team but I put on ten pounds and had trouble getting into my skirt and second pair of jeans. While enjoying two de• Iightful cakes at cousin Rose- mary's she showed me the recipes. Waving a cookbook in front of my nose is dangerous. Once in my hands 1 disappear from conversa• tions and start to study. (1 was no loss from the talking. 1 don't know German and could only grin and nod for the first week.) 1 started to copy out the recipe and Rosemary was surprised. Klaus explained that I know the ingredients and with my mother-in-law's help could decipher the method. Well fine, she says and makes a gift of the whole book. Guess who is learning German now. It is a beautiful book and the recipes are mainly for tortes, cakes and festive c ookies. Mind you there is a section on breads and pastries. After sampling some of the recipes I am willing to give the book a good run for its money, as soon as I get all my work caught up at home. If you have read this far, you will know that the trip was terrific. But there is so much to tell you that I will pause here for a piece of cake and tell you more next week. THE SIXTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 4, 19491 -- A3 AT HOME IN GERMANY — The first day in Germany Rhea Hamilton was ca walking and sightseeing in Gelnhauser, near Frankfurt. The medieva' IIlage is surrounded by a brick wall with look out towers built in. A, . .thea is a cousin Rainer Freigericht and his daughter Silke. (Photo by Seeger) Hydro wants line near here BY GREGOR CAMPBELL Ontario Hydro wants to build 300 kilomet- res of transmission lines and about 1,664 towers from the Bruce Nuclear Power Development south to London then east to the Middleport transformer station near Hamil- ton, at a capital cost of about $350 million in 1981 dollars. The line will run just west of Seaforth, Hugh Macaulay One 500,000 -volt double circuit line, which could involve S0 -metre high towers on a right-of-way 76 metres wide, from Bruce to a new transformer station at London would be required for this preferred plan. Where exactly these towers and lines would situated in this ares has yet to be determined, save for a zone 13 to SO kilometers wide through Bruce, Huron and Middlesex counties where the specific route would be located if approved after public hearings under the Environmental Assessment Act expect to start in January. Hydro chairman Hugh Macaulay an- nounced the preferred plan at London Thursday. It is one of six alternative general routes the utility, public and special interest groups have been studying since June. "Now, with the benefit of more than four months' public input combined with our own analyses, we feel this plan best meets economic, environmental and techniacl crit- eria" Mr, Macaulay said. "The new facilities will enable all the power from the Bruce nuclear plants to be delivered, provide for future electricity needs in southwestern Ontario (to the year 2,000), and maintain transfer capability with the Michigan utili- ties." The Hydro chairman said plan one was selected by a process of elimination. after working groups had narrowed down their r .1'.,,,.. I choice of olans to two. plans one and five. Hydro preferred the same two plans. "Both are excellent plans technically and are comparable in capital cost," Macaulay said, "the first plan however has higher long-term costs because of greater transmiss- ion line losses associated with it. "The biggest advantage of plan one over all other plans is that it represents the best option fromanoverall environmental prespec- tive. In terms of its potential effect on agriculture, the plan requires the least number of transmission towers of any of the plans, and calls for only one tine from Bruce to London as compared with two required by plan five." Hydro released four and one-half pounds of documentation when announcing its prefer- red plan Thursday. The documentation notes public interest was highest at Clinton, Lucknow, Ailsa Craig. Flesherton. Avening and Kitchener for 16 information centres in southwestern Ontario Hydro set up to discuss the six plans. Hydro's supporting documentation states: "The primary concern expressed at the information centres related to the impact that towers have on agricultural operations. The main desire expressed was to minimise this impact through appropriate compensation, Improved tower design, and proper location of tansmission lines and towers within farm land rather than through avoiding prime agricultural land altogether. "Input from the agricultural community stressed the importance of (coating the towers on property lines. Plan one requires one tower line on a '6 metre right-of-way between London and Bruce. Plan two requires two tower lines. If they are both placed on one right-of-way, which would 110 metres wide, both sets of lowers could not be on the property lines, two separate 6' metre rights-of-way would be required." If the Minsitry of the Environment approves the plan that Hydro prefers the utility will begin what is calls "route stage studies". with the public. municipalities. organizations, interst groups and provincial ministries and agencies. Specific alternative routes and sites will then be identified, narrowed down and selected by Hydro in conjunction with these groups and individuals. "Following hearings on the Route Sir ge Environmental Assessment and a subse- quent government approval in the spring of 1984, right-of-way and tower locations will be finalized in co-operation with affected land- owners," Hydro's documentation states. "With property aquisition and construction requiring about four years, facilities are expected to be in service by July 1988." This the same year all four units from the Bruce B station are expected to be in service.

We remember While Remembrance Day is next week, now is the time to start giving a few moments to the occasion. For most of us the day is like any other. We go to work and full -fill our hectic schedule with little thought for the importance of the day. We might have our attention drawn to the fact if we see a parade of veterans honouring the occasion or school children exhibiting their art and thoughts on the issue of war and the cost to country. For the younger people who have never been part of the great struggle associated with the world wars it is hard to fathom the true sense of dedication and the commitment that a lot of people made in order to win the battles at home and in the field. While we watch war movies and can find sympathy for the heroes and heroines it is still hard to grasp the tragedies and heartache that must have been felt. The power of the feeling at that time was captured by poets and authors and it is from reading this, that our young people, can get an idea of the vast commitment that was made to the war effort. The following poem was written by Squadron leader G. L. Creed of the RCAF, Ottawa. Sir Cedric Hardwicke, eminent stage and screen star of the 1940s read the poem from the stage of the Capitol Theatre in February, 1942. The poem entitled "Message from Singapore" is described by Sir Cedric as "one of the great pieces of poetry to come out of this war", Epitaph— "So long, my Canada! You may not hear again From one to whom your very name is dear. . . And so this message I must send you ere The yellow tide of death that creeps so near Flows over yet another of your sons Whose priceless freedom is your greatest dower .. . To help preserve this birthright for mankind, I dedicate my life to its last hour, . . "I go 10 join my comrades of Dunkirk— Narvik—Tobruk— Hong Kong— and many more Whose names in tears are written on your heart From sunlit West to grey Atlantic shore. . . Gladly give I, as they have given, all One man can give to pay the debt I owe To you, my Canada, who freedom -blest, This blessing on your children still bestow .. . "The sands are running out. . . the yellow pack In full and snarling cry is closing in... . So little time is left in which to play My humble part ... but, if my death should win One single foothold for the steps of those, My brothers, who—to save your freedom dear— Must follow me, with gladness I shall go to meet my Maker ... and without a fear!" He died, this son of Canada, for you! To help preserve your towns from raining hell— Your homes from fire—your cities from the rule Of beasts—your shores from shot and shell. He died for lack of guns—of tanks—of planes— Of ships—of all that wins in modern war.. . All he had left was Courage. ...and the rest Is what we stay-at-homes are paying for To the editor: Wasn't it a party? How about that Gala Weekend Oct. 23.24? "Wun't That A Party?" If you weren't there, you can't imagine the fun, the work and the excitment of paying off close to S8,000 on The Building Fund. On behalf of the board of the Blyth Centre for The Arts, 1 thank all who came and participated in the various events. Those who donated so generously to the auction and door prizes, The Blyth Festival Singers for donating a concert and The Madrigal singers, and the generous support of Blyth businesses. 1 thank each board member (and spouses) for days of HARD work. So many people contributed to this success -all friends, of Blyth. The list is long, but to mention a few • Jim Swan, entertainers Cal Dodd, John Roby, Ted Johns, Mary Hearn. Those who helped with the casino, the ushers. I thank the kitchen crew, especially Janice and Gene, those who cooked meat, baked potatoes and tarts, the Auburn Lions of their trailer. We have about S4,000 left on the Building Fund bank loan. Several recent generous donations have further reduced the total. It would be wonderful to clear this debt this year. If you are considering a donation, or increasing a donation, it would be appreciat- ed so very much. Because of the restoration of our hall and the success of our summer theatre and winter program, villages and even cities in Ontario and across Canada look at Blyth and say "if they can do it so can we." People in communities such as Paisley, Kincardine. Collingwood, Cambridge, Plcton, Dundalk and many others are now enjoying their own winter programs. summer theatre and restoring facitilies • due to our encourage. ment of the arts. Blyth was first and can be proud. Be a friend of Blyth. Sincerely Mildred McAdam Pres. BCA Family Nite coming up Many have asked when we intend to have another Family Nite Party, so we have derided to do just that on Saturday Nov. 21 in the Blyth Memorial Hall. (Further an- nouncement later). This Family Nite Party is for anyone and everyone. It is sponsored by the Many Musicians a group interested in community betterment. Musk and entertainment will be supplied by local talents. Ladies are request• ed to please bring lunch. We invite you to bring your children and come or come alone. Proceeds from the collection at the door are for community betterment. Behind the Scenes by Keith Rou/stop For the ordinary soul watching the rich carry on their lives, whether it be on television or movies or through reading The Canadian Establishment, it leaves one agape at how much they take the rewards of their life for granted. Huge mansions, expensive can, servants awaiting a ring of a bell, bending and scraping waiters in restaurants, these the rich seem to take for granted. There seems b be no worry, no guilt, no questioning on their part that others don't live the same way. It's simply taken for granted that they have the right to live in their exalted position. It's hard for us to understand. Or is it? The gap between Conrad Black, or Thomas Bata, and E.P. Taylor and. the rest of the Canadian populace is nothing compared to the gap between the average Canadian middle -clan professional and two-thirds of the peopk of the world. In a world where many go to bed hungry every night, where mthions die for lack of proper nutrition, statistics show that Canadians now eat one in three meals outside their homes. Take a look at the items on the menu of the growing number of expensive restaurants in any city and many small towns and you'll see meals for two that cost more money than whole families eat in Haiti or some parts of India. Canadians when pressed will say, "ah yes, it is sad, something should be done," but if a politicians urges increasing foreign aid will scream that charity begins at home with all those suffering middle class Canadians who are just this side of "dire straits". MORE HONEST But while Canadians may be hypocritical, our neighbours to the south are much more honest. Ronald Reagan after years of living in the splendour of Hollywood has grown to accept the way of the rich, and divine right of Americans to be the richest of all nations. For a while there with the guilt of Vietnam, the soul searching of Jimmy Carter, the Americans acted like a different nation, like one of those sons or daughters of a rich family who feel the guilt of their wealth, so set out b do good deeds. Ronald Reagan luckily came along to put American back on the pauper Path. So there he was at Cancun, the summit of leaden which was trying to do something to dose the growing pp between the nation* with more money than they can really use and the poor who just wary about good food, dean water and shelter there be was setting those poor people straight. The way to wealth, was not redistributing what 1s already, but in crating new wealth. The ralvstlon he said, is to let my American Sincerely Jim McCall businessmen come in and run your country the right way. The galling thing for most of the leaders at the conference must have been that it didn't matter if all the other leaders present agreed on a course of action, if Reagan didn't like it, k wouldn't get done. As one commentator put it, Reagan managed to reduce the North-South summit meeting to the equiva- lent of a conference of regional mayors. CONSEQUENCES LATER Like the whimsical autocrats of ancient times who decided to fight wars over any trivial issue and never thought of the thousands of poor peuants who would die because of the whim, Reagan makes decisions he wants and worries about the consequences later. The sale of arms to Saudi Arabia seems to have everybody worried that it might destroy the shaky balance of power in the Middle East, that it might trigger another arms race, that it might start a chain reaction that will lead to destruction. Everybody, that is, except Reagan who seems to never worry about anything except those dastardly Reds in Russia planning to take over the world or those almost as dastardly Canadians who have the nerve to want to own their own country. Not that the U.S. is alone in this. The Soviet Union is farther away and more secretive so we don't get to examine it so dearly but • it has the same feeling of noblesse oblige: that it should have the right to interfere anywhere in the world if it will better Macaw. You don't like what people are demanding in Hungary or Chezchoslo• vakia, then send in some "help" in the form d tanks and troops.

V's not a pleasant feelling, Teachers' aides will be hired - HPSSB BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE Dublin • Teachers' aides will be hired by the Huron -Perth Separate School Board, a decision made after considerable discussion at its Oct. 26 meeting. Director of education William Eckert said there may be one or two areas where teachers' aides are required. The classes will be looked at on an individual basis with consideration for the number and needs of the students. Vice•chairman Vincent Young expressed concern for using a "Blanket" po ;icy to hire aides. While agreeing with the need for aides, he asked if each hiring could be brought to board meetings. Mr. Eckert he didn't want background information such as actual children requiring additional assistance. Judgement should rest with administration, Mr. Eckert said. as they have been in the classrooms and are aware of needs. It was agreed Mr. Eckert would inform trustees of hirings. Presently there are two half-time and one quarter•time aides at three self•contalned special education classes. Two are in Stratford and one is in Clinton. School office secretary rates increased by 15 per cent effective Sept. I. Trustees approved the following increases with old rates in brackets: starting S5.35 ($4.65), one year $5.62 ($4.90), two or more years $5.90 (S5.13). In other business, trustees were told two officials from the Ministry of Education who were asked to speak at a meeting to explain the english curriculum review, are unable to attend until January or February of next year. 4-H news & views The sixth meeting of the Feathered Friends, Auburn 2 4-H club was held in the form of a party at the home of their leaders Linda and Debbie Cunningham.

Get more milk Why lose milk production this winter through unsound feeding practices? Nutrient requirements do vary with production so it becomes increasingly important to feed a cow milking 70 pounds per day much different from a 40 pound producer. Dairymen who can't afford to purchase protein supple- ment and feed according to requirements are only fooling themselves - through reduced milk yields. Overfeeding nu- trient requirements to dairy cows can also be as serious as underfeeding in terms of additional feed costs and herd health problems that can develop, The ideal win ensure that the dairy ,o& ration is bal- anced fel all important nu- trients is to request an analysis of home grown roughage*. This service is available through your local Agricultural Office and offers the following analysis: Type 1 - Dry Matter, Crude Protein • 57.00; Type D - Dry Matter, Crude Protein, Calcium, Phosphorous, Magnesium. and Potassium - 313.00; Type III • Dry Matter, Crude Protein, Calcium, Phospho- rous, Magnesium, Potas- w slum, Manganese, Copper and Zinc • 116.00.; Digestibk Protein • 58.00. To formulate a computeriz- ed dairy ration based on the results of home grown feeds there is an additional cost of 145.00. For any additional rations formulated in the same year, the cost would be reduced to 520.00. Many dairymen have taken advant- age of this service to improve herd health problems related to nutrition along with max- imizing on potential milk production.

HURON BRUCE Ontario's purchase of Sun cor shares has continued in the spotlight at Queen's Park. The purchase price was set at S6_S0 million. but cost esti- mates over the Iifc of the financing arrangements re quired to finance the pur c hase will add a further 52.412,282,000 to the origina price. in addition, background information used in making a decision on the purchase has not been presented to the Legislature. So far. only the Suncor annual report and a copy of "an old speech" have been given to Legislative Members, On top of this. the House has been informed that Sun• cors oil plant at Fort McMur• ray is Alberta's leading sul• phur dioxide polluter, rank ing ninth highest in Canada. As part owner. the House was told that the Minister o' Energy has an obligation to reduce emissions from the plant. It is also to be noted tha Ontario is hoping to finance part of the purchase througl receipt of dividends from the company t'nfortunately, it has been discovered that this company has not paid divid• ends on its common shares. and as a result that policy will have to be changed by the board of directors hef°re an% dividends will he paid. At the same time, since Ontario owns only 2" of the shares. only SI in S4 will stay in Canada under current car cumstances because -`5°� ti- the company is foreign -own ed. Traditionally, these doll ars have remained in Canada RENT REVIEW Tenant lobbyists were a Queen's Park to persuadt Members to oppose Govern ment moves to raise the sig per cent rent increase ceiling Suggestions were made that "rent registry'" he establish ed to allow prospective ten, ants to find out what an apartment's rental rate was. it is unfortunate that. on tn( of Government initiative it the rent review area, the Government has reduced the budget of the Residentialten ancy Commission which wit prevent quick action on the already backlogged revie% process. Ridge Landfill site. near The minister's study Useful garbage BY WAYNE GOOD, PASTOR, HURON CHAPEL, AUBURN Just a lot of garbage or something useful. People hive been busy this past week gathering up the leaves that have fallen on their yards. Each year they find it necessary to gather them. 'Often times it is the leaves from the neighbour's trees up the street or across the back yard, but they're on their lawns and "that gar- bage" has to be cleared out of the way. Get rid of It. Bag k, bury it, or burn it seems the only solution to this annual harvest sof garbage from the trees. What may be your garbage may be a "gold mine of nutrients" for someone's garden. All of that so called "garbage" is loaded with nutrients to feed your garden plants and some people were ready to collect your "leaves garbage" to put into the soil of heir gardens because they have disc:rsvered the value of leaves in the garden soil. Because they have found no use for leaves to them they are "garbage." Others have k,und them useful. Many people treat spirit- ual things in the same way Often you hear such con meats as "who wants all that religious stuff,,' ,.they're all hypocrites," or "it's just a bunch of garbage". Because some people have never bund use for spiritual things In their lives, it only becomes a nuisance to them, some- thing to get out of the way, something to get rid of out of their life. But what they find to be a useless thing, "gar- bage" become another man's "Life" with a capital "L". For Jesus said He was come that we might have lite and that we might have life more abundantly. How do you treat the spiritual things in your life? As so much garbage? Or something you can make good use of? y--•�.�..+� keh Christian Reformed Church Myth Carried a Beiesaad Mora incites you w lb was* as rvi esti sod swam Nrmcrime 1, 1%I 10 a.mw.'Ns The Lord Wales?"

HUMAN RIGHTS Some amendments ha%c been presented to Bill ' by the Minister of Labour. Rob ert Elgie. However, the Mini ster did not eliminate the search and seizure provisions which have caused a great deal of furor. included in the amendments are: dropping the word "persistent" from the definition of sexual har- rassment: allowing the em- ployer to recover must costs in the case of frivolous complaint: allowing a person being questioned by the human rights commission to have his lawyer present: stating that the prohibition of notices or signs intended to incite others to contravene the code is not to interfere with freedom to express opin- ions: eliminating the upper limit of protection against discrimination based on age (the limit is now65) in all areas exceptempleyment.

Ours wasn't so hot. Under the burden of a heavy cold. rotten weather (what ever happened to Indian summer?), and plain procrastination. I'm going to let some of my readers write this column. Apparently 1 wrote a column a few months ago about Canadians, despite all the gloom and doom. never having had it so good. I meant it. as far as material things go. Here are a couple of responses. Mrs. Koleen Garland (nice name that. Koleen) of R.R. 2. Cargill. Ont.. says she usually agrees with me, but not on that occasion. I'II quote bits: "This week's column had my dander up before I got to the third line. "So we never had it so good. huh? Maybe the consumers never had it so good...hut some of us are producers as well. .we have nearly S90,000 worth of debt. It's called a small farm. 1 call it the great Canadian freebee. We cannot get firm mortgage loans...to small to merit help. So we stuck with paying S20,000 per year in interest. "Last year 1 cut our living expenses down to $7.000...a bit below the poverty level. My husband has an excellent job, yet we still manage to take a S5.000 loss on the year." Yes. mam, but how much income tax did you pay. with a loss like that? Were you hungry, cold, hopeless? I know all about paying interest: I've been doing it all my life. Laity Greeters were Mr. and Mrs. Martin Bun for Laity Sunday at Duff's United Church. Guest organist wu Mr. Floyd Herman. Ushers were Mervin Smith, Laverne Godkin and Bruce Godkin. Conducting the worship service was Martin Baan, who gave a very interesting story to the children, saying we should count our bles- sings, instesd of our wants.

I'm a farmer! I've worked my backside off providing those never -had -it -so -good, so don't include ntc in them." Well said, lady. But maybe you should have taken a course in plumbing or electricity. Wish 1 had. You wouldn't be in debt. At the other end of the knotted rope. Bill Francis of Moncton, N.B., agrees with mc. "It is a relief to know that there is still someone around who realizes that in the bulk we are a greedy lot: even. alas. senior citizens who never had it so good. As for the young. they now expect to celebrate Christmas in June. "In our early years, hardnoscd hank managers may have slowed us down. but nothing ever dimmed our hope. I soon learned to pay cash or do without. Started out in 1914 working a 12 hour week, six days a week...earning Sb0 a month and paying S15 for hoard, consisting mainly of cod and moose meal .. so many had it a lot worse during those depression years." Amen to that, Bill. I'm about half way between these two writers, in age, and in opinion. But I still think. even with our sick dollor. inflation. and unemployment we still hasc something to have a happy Thanksgiving about. Now, about censorship. Hilda Sibthorpc, of Wyebridge, Ont.. supports my stand against the majority who would like to ban certain books in our schools: "I express my concern to trustees. friends and neighbours that this is a situation they should speak out about. But it's frustrating to meet indifference...." Mrs. Sibthorpe is an occasional corres• pondent, a successful politician. and the mother of two girls I taught hack in what seems like the 1880s. She is also deeply concerned about the subject of abortion:" I still believe there should he a choice for women.,.". hut that's another topic, not for this column. Though I agree with her. Somebody else, from Vancouver (can's find the danged letter). agrees with my opinions on censorship. but berates me for mentioning the Bible as an example of sonic pretty straight talk that would probably he banned by some rural school boards in this country. if it had been published last year. This writer claims that the Bible contains these lurid passages only to display God's anger with man's folly and to warn hint about it. Well, that may bc. but in my opinion. a lot of it is straight history, and some of it pretty lurid. Thank goodness. our local school board has some guts. A few zealots on the board had drawn up a list of seven books considered questionable for teaching. There was a big flap, but in the end, rink one book was (eft on the banned list ironically. it was a play. same play to he presented in the country son by a drama group. A final touch of unintentional irony occurred when a local radio announcer said the book had been banned because one of the characters was a religious bigot. I wonder what kind of people began the list in the first place. I have lots more interesting correspond- ence, but not much more room. Let's go back to our reason for giving thanks. Inflation and interest rates are killing us, along with ever -higher taxes. But that's only paper. and can't kill our spirit. We have bumbling governments that talk like lions and act like mice. A heck of a lot of people are living below the so-called poverty line. Farmers and small businessmen and people with mortgages to renew are hurting. But who is dying of starvation or for lack of medicine, as in much of the rest of the world? We maybe cold. but we aren't freezing to death. They don't pick corpses off the street every .morning. Our children have an excellent chance of surviving. Sonic of us. at some time. may have had it better. But for the Canadian people. as a mass. I still say we never had it so good.

You too can adopt a Gran Famous Canadian person- alities, Charlie Farquharson and Maureen Forrester have adopted 'Grans' through Help the Aged's Adopt•a• gran program. Adopt -A -Gran is a very personal way of showing an old person who has nothing. that you care. These old people are all residents of poor. third -world countries. where there are no pensions. medical help or often even adequate shelter. They have no friends or family who can care for them. The basic requirements of these destit- ute old folk are being met by one of the caring bodies. approved by Help the Aged. For just S12.00 per month Canadian can adopt a 'Gran' and are encouraged to write letters to this newest member of their family. Where poss- ible the 'gran' will reply, but if they are too frail or cannot write, the caring body will send regular reports of their progress. This small amount of money, by our standards, buys so much. With it they can purchase supplementary food, clothing, medical supp- lies, and the few extras that make life worthwhile. Join Charlie Farquharson and Maureen Forrester and make the last precious years of your 'Gran' a time of peace and relaxation instead of need and misery.

Paul and Mary re - unit ing for sold -cwt concerts and television specials, one of the folk groups that never really went away will bring its act to Blyth Memorial Hall on Sunday. Nov1 5 at 2 p.m. The Travellers have per- formed all over Canada and around the world. entertain• mg Canadian troops in the Middle East, performing for the Emperor of Japan, tour- ing the Soviet Union as part of a cultural exchange. ap• gearing at the London Pal. ladium during a tour of Britain. The Travellers have recorded 14 albums, appear. ed on stage and television with such stars as Anne Murray. Gordon Ughtfoot, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell and TheRovers and made several television specials of their own including one recently completed for CBC Television. It was back in the early 1950's that Jerry Gray fell under the influence of the legendary Pete Seeger and they formed a friendship that lasted many years. Jerry formed the Travellers and with other members of the group rewrote, in 1955, the words of the Woodk Guthrie dassic "This Land is Your Land" to apply to Canada. The song became so familiar to Canadians over the next few years that when Peter, Paul and Mary recorded the original, American version, Many Canadians thought they were stealing a Canad- ian song and making it American. The Travellers have de- signed their concert to enter- tain all members of the family. They can sing in French, Greek, Russian, Spanish, German, Hebrew, Japanese, Ukranian, Swahili and a few more but mostly they sing and entertain in a way that is uniquely Canad- ian and uniquely The Travel. lets. Beside Jerry Gray, The Travellers includes Aileen Ahern, a native of Halifax who cane from the same musical background u her friends Gene McLellan, Anne Murray and Catherine McKinnon; Don Vickery, one oil Canada's best known drummers; Ted Roberts, well-known Toronto guitar player and musical arranger and Joe Lawrence, bass player and singer, a native American who before he ane to Canada worked with such people as Josh White, Mason Williams and Mimmy Rodgers.
