The Blyth Standard, 1981-11-25, Page 1WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1981 BLYTH, ONTARIO, PRICE: 30 Cents Volume 90 — No. 47 ONE, TWO, AND A THREE — Ella Richmond led the opening group on her piano at the community family night in Memorial Hall. Assisting on the fiddle is Jim McCall. The evening of entertainment and dance drew a respectable crowd and over $50. was raised at the door for community work. (Photo by Hamilton) Family Night a success There was dancing and clapping Satur- day night in Blyth as friends and neighbours gathered for the second family night in Blyth Memorial Hall. Organized by a group of local musicians, the evening included old time favourites played by local musicians and to dances by talented youngsters in the area. Both children and adults enjoyed everything from square dancing to waltzes. The collection at the door raised 554.54 which will be given to the hall board after expenses have been paid. The last family night held in the spring raised enough money to start a fund for a new piano that now graces the Memorial Hall. Fur flies for charity Harold Ferguson, owner of the Blyth Inn, has been sporting a fine salt and pepper beard and has decided to have it clipped off. Rather than lose the curls on the floor of the barbershop he has offered to make a little money for charity instead. In co-operation with the Blyth Lions club, Mr. Ferguson will be allowing patrons at the Blyth lnn to help do the honours of clipping his beard for a fee. The funds raised will be matched up to 550 by Mr, Ferguson and donated to the Lions Christmas Charity Fund. The whole event will be carefully monitor- ed and if someone only wishes to give S I , and do a bit of trimming he will only be allowed to trim a dollar's worth of beard. Mr. Ferguson has set the date for the clipping as Saturday December 5 at 2 p.m. Come one and come all. Scissors or shears will be supplied and the cause is a worthy one. Messiah for Christmas An old Christmas favour. ite, Handel's Messiah will get a unique treatment when Tafelmusik Orchestra and Chamber Choir performs the classic at Blyth Memorial Hall, Sunday, December 13 at 2 p.m. ' Although with nearly 40 musicians and singers in- volved this will be the largest ensemble yet to perform in the Blyth Centre for the Arts music series, this Messiah is actually a scaled-down simp- ler version than the huge productions often performed in modern times with entire symphony orchestra and 100 voice choirs. Tafelmusick orchestra uses the instru• ments musicians would have played when Handel's Messiah was first produced in Dublin in 1741. The Tafel- musik choir specializes in the authentic vocal practices for the music of the 17th and 18th centuries. During his lifetime, Handel made several revisions to the Messiah, which he originally wrote in only three weeks in 1741. In fact, the oratorio was never performed In its origi- nal state. Tafelmusik has based its concert on a per- formance directed by Handel himself at the Foundling Hospital in London in 1751.

Thc Blyth Board of Trade has been busy these past few weeks making plans for the upcoming Christmas season. Their first priority is to get Blyth decorated and sparkling, with Christmas cheer. Lights are being made by Board of Trade members to be hung inside the yellow arches along main street. Small cedar trees will be mounted on the standards along the main street as well for that festive touch. To raise funding for the cost of lights the board has initiated a draw with 1100 and SSO gift vouchers redeemable at any Board of Trade merchant. The tickets are being sold by school children who will receive a prize for the most tickets sold. Prizes have been donated by Blyth Variety, (two dolls), Blyth Saga. ichildren's record) and Blyth Pro Hardware (two hockey sticks). The draw will be made December 12 by Santa Claus in time for the winners to use those dollars for the Christmas season. OLD LIGHTS The village at one time had lights for the trees in front of Memorial Hall but when last taken down some five years ago the wiring was so old it disintegrated. Clerk Larry Walsh pointed out that vandalism was a big problem with bulbs being stolen on a almost nightly basis. Residents of Blyth have remarked that if the old lights could be salvaged then this idea of new lights could be abandoned.. Hut according to the village clerk, the lights were a hazard and discarded. FREE SKATING The merchants have set aside Sunda) December 13 for free skating at the Blyth Arena with free drinks for the first 100 skaters starting at 2:00 p.m. The children's free movies is again sponsored by the Blyth Board of Trade and Santa will be visiting Blyth afterwards on she invitation of the Lions to hand out goodies k, the children. Snow sculpture and sleigh rides are also in the offing and will be published as details are finalized. CHRISTMAS TREES Working together. the Blyth Board of Trade and the Leo club will be selling Christmas trees fresh cut for the old fashioned price of S8. The trees will be sold along main street as well as on Sundays by the Leos. The money goes to both the Leo club and towards Christmas lighting in the village. Trees will be available this weekend in Blyth. Pee Wees rolling The Blyth Peewee 'A"s opened their regular season last week with one win and one tie. On November 18. the team travelled to Zurich where sloppy third period play forced them to settle for a 4.4 draw. At 1:24 of the first period, Dean Lawrie opened the scoring for Blyth, assisted by Larry Hunking and Kent Patterson. Two more goals in the second period --one by Kent Patterson assisted by Dean Lawrie: and another by Dean Lawrie from Kent Patterson and Shane Snell -put Blyth out in front by 3. This 3-0 lead, however. was to be short lived. After only 4:29 seconds into the third period. Zurich had tied the game at 3 apiece. This deadlock lasted until 12:13 of the final frame when Mark ,:Allen, on assists by Kevin Save now on Standard There's a Christmas gift that's low priced, packed with news and repeats every week of the year.

Forty-one seconds later, Zurich scored a fourth time and that was the way it ended. Two days later, Blyth travelled to Monkton where the team would make up for its weak performance in Zurich. After only 5I seconds into the game, goals by Neil Rodger from Mark Allen: Dean Lawrie unassisted. and Kent Patterson from Dean Lawrie, had put Blyth in the driver's seat with an early J-0 lead. Despite the fast start of the Blyth squad, some sharp goaltending on the part of Chris Royal squashed any attempt made by Elma Logan (Monkton) to get on the scoreboard. Team work and passing provided Blyth with the opportunities, and accurate shooting turned opportunities to goals. Ten of these goals were to follow. and by the end of the third period. the visitors had an impressive 13-3 victory to take back home. (Complete scoring and goaltending sta- tistics will follow later in the season.) VOOPoitiliKV610P Special events Here in Blyth groups have planned a nwltitude of activities to celebrate the season.

Saturday and Sunday were the first days we had to ourselves since coming home from holidays and we certain` ly put them to good use. Between taking pictures at bazaars, family night, and pancake breakfasts, we man- aged to clean out the pump house, get the garbage to the dump, clean and sweep the porch and even hang a couple of wreaths to make the whole job complete. Sunday was wash day and between Toads we managed to paint the dining room win. dows, sort our sickly plants and gived them a hauling over and even touch up those dreadful water marks on the dining room ceiling before another year went by without a leak. (Touch wood). On top of that, my sister arrives with a friend from Stratford and brings supper which was the crowning touch From Me to You By Rhea Hamilton to an industrious day. We find that on special occasions such as Christmas. Klaus and 1 put on extra steam and do both the spring and fall house cleaning all at once. Family and friends are learning that the cleanest time to visit us in is over the holiday season. Mind you 1 wouldn't want you to think that we live in a terrible mess but I am sure that many homes have the spider web in the dark corner and a boot tray ',hat is in constant need of wiping out. One of thes•r days when the basics are glossed over we will tackle the cleaning of the carpets and mats. Then the house will glisten and 1 can get down to the most enjoy` Able part of Christmas and that is the decorating and baking. Although each year we bake less because only the two of us est it and the pounds are hardly worth the delicious effort , Everywhere we visit there are treats too and that should do us. So our baking now is limited and more often than not given away to friends as gifts. NiCE ORNAMENT I have noticed that more and more stores are stocking up with delightful little orna• ments that can be used when making your own decora- tions. Each year I buy a few more odds and pieces and add them to the baskets and containers of greens that we put around the house.

For parents who are aware of the book of the same name that was under scrutiny by the Huron Board of Education, this was the ideal chance to under• stand what the book was all about. For those who like to read there is always something lacking in the movie version that we can't always pinpoint. But not in this version of the movie produced by and starr- ing Robert Blake. All the sensitivity is there and the bond that exists between two men, one of whom is mentally retarded, is both subtly emphasized and played up throughout the whole piece.

Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston Racist Canada? Canada is either a haven for the poor and downtrodden of all races and creeds or a sick racist society depending on who you listen to. Somewhere probably in the middle is the real truth. Canadians have always liked to see their country as one of th9se places where the persecuted of thtworld could find refuge. We have taken in the victims of famine in Ireland, of greedy landlords in Scotland, of imperial whims in the Ukraine, of the class system of England, of the devastation of the Second World War across western Europe. of Soviet totalitarianism in Eastern Europe and of famine and war in southeast Asia. Yet many of the people who have been taken in today are turning around and saying Canada is a racist land, that people of different skin tones are discriminated against. AMPLE EVIDENCE There is no doubt that they have ample evidence to back them up. Periodically the grim stories come out about elderly Pakistani or Asian gentlemen being beaten up on Toronto subway trains by young punks. Closer to home, 1 recall when one popular business was sold to an East Indian family and almost half the customers, most claiming to be good Christains, never darkened the door again. While some Canadians were performing an act of great love and generosity in rescuing "boat people" from the horrors of their lives in the far east, others +/ere first of all saying that we should be coking after our own poor instead, then later spreading rumours about the "boat people" axing dirty or being ungrateful or being lazy or expecting their sponsors to do everything for them. There is no doubt that there are racists and bigots in Canada. For those of us who detest this there is often the dilemma of what we can do about it. I recall several years ago attending a dinner and sitting across from a loud, loutish boor who insisted on telling stories about blacks using such terms as "this big buck." Everyone at the table was embarassed but what were we to do. Human decency seemed to call for someone to tell him off but this would only cause a disturbance and wasn't likely to change the man anyway in the long run. So we all ignored the bigot, hoping he would go away but the feeling of guilt for not doing something remained long after the boor had gone home. And yet, while we must always strive for the perfection of a land where peopk of all races, religions and beliefs can live together in perfect harmony, those who characterize Canada u having major problems are going a little overboard. There are two categories of people who do this: the immigrants them- selves and Canadian liberal thinkers. A QO$$4ECTION A television forum recently gave a good cross-section of peoplee who had come to Canada from other parts of the world and had their chance to sound off on their grievances in their adopted land. Many used as evidence of the racist Canadian society that they had never felt out of place. They had never felt their colour, they said, until they had come to Canada. Why should they be so surprised? I never felt very "Canadian" until l went to the U.S. I never felt white until i was in places in American cities where whites were a minority. I never felt anything special about speaking English until 1 went to Quebec and was surrounded by people speaking French. (I had the same feeling in a Toronto restaurant in the Greek section where everyone spoke Greek). Most people coming to Canada come from places where they are the ethnic majority to a land where they are minority. Given such a change in culture, people are bound to feel uncomfortable. A Canadian going to Pakistan or China feels equally isolated. White Canadian liberals are ready to listen to any cry of racism or discrimination because they seem to have a new kind of "white man's burden," carrying on their shoulders the guilt of what whites have done to others anywhere in the world. A recent show on CBC told of the horrible treatment of the Chinese of Canada from the 1800's up until the end of World War II. There was certainly nothing to be proud of but the Chinese weren't the only ones who were met with signs in parks that said "No dogs or Chinese allowed." Similar signs met the Irish and many other white skinned immigrants. We can't go on carrying the guilt for the sins of bigotted forefathers anymore than we can forever feel guilty about slavery in the U.S. or the misdeeds of South Africans when there is nothing we can do about it. TENSION And liberals should remember that racism is not a sin solely of the whites against other races. Wherever people of different races, colours and customs have come together, tension and munderstanding have arisen. Ther are few places in the world where there is such a mixture of people from all over the world as in North American cities. Jamaicans came from a country with a fairly large ethnic mix, but nothing compared to Toronto with its Chinese, East Indians, Japanese, Greeks, Hungarians, Ukarainians and many other groups. Pakistanis and Indians came from a much more racially homogenkus land. To expect Canada with such diversity to be as simpk a place to live as their former homes is ridiculous. Canada is far from perfect and we must atrtve for perfection. On the other hand, let's not get too carried away with out deficiencies either.

UCW bake sale, 5 minutes after opening The right to drive? Declining enrollment in driver education courses has been noted in many West Virginia communities, including some in the Parkersburg area. Many persons will not look with alarm upon the decease in number of young people seeking enough driving hours to earn a license. There has been a growing feeling in this state that the fewer 16 -17 -year-old motorists are on the highway, the safer the road. Obviously, all drivers of these ages do not offer danger to the law-abiding motorist. Records show that about six out of 10 young drivers handle their vehicles at high speeds, recklessly and with little consideration for other road users. Little dispute is offered that teenagers kill and injure themselves and others on American roads at rates far higher than other drivers. And the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety notes that research in both the United States and Great Britain during the past five years "has strongly indicated that school -sponsored driver education is contributing importantly to the national motor vehicle crash injury problem, because the availability of these courses serves to increase the number of 16 -17-year-olds who become licensed and drive." Driver education costs an estimated $300,000 a year in West Virginia with the federal government paying about 10 percent. The premise is that high school driver education courses promote higher levels of highway safety. However, research fails to support this presumption. In 1976, Connecticut eliminated state funding for driver education courses. This caused many local school systems to drop the courses. Studies show that in those communities the licensing of 16 and 17-year-olds decreased by 57 percent. Significantly, in those same communities the reported crashes for the same age group declined by 63 percent. As the Insurance Institute comments, "These findings point strongly to the conclusion that the eliminaton of high school driver education would save both young lives and taxpayers dollars, largely because fewer 16 -17-year-olds become licensed and drive when driver education is left up to parents and commercial driving schools." , The Institute also notes that "since their fatal crash involvements are predominantly at night," some states have restricted 16- and 17-year-olds to daytime -only driving. The driving age is an arbitrary thing established by the various states. Teenagers, like everyone else, have no "right" to drive, That's a privilege which the state grants, and which the state can take away. The obvious solution to the problem of high accident rates among teenagers Is to raise the age at which drivers are licensed. That may be a long time In coming. in the meantime, the elimination of driver education courses might save a few lives and a few dollars.

The Lions are working towards raising $3,000 for the Clinton Hospital. (Photo by Hamilton) THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 25, 1981 — A5 Londesboro Lions have successful pancake breakfast The Londesboro Lions have followed one successful fund raising event for the Clinton Public Hospital Fund with another. After the dance held on November 7th which, together with the proceeds from a Handmade Quilt donated to the Lions by the Aimwell Unit of the Londesboro U.C.W. raised over 5850, the Lions staged their second Pancake Brunch last Sunday. Everyone in the community appeared to be there and u a result an additional 5250 to 5300 will push the Lion pledge over the 52000 figure. Because of the huge success of the Pancake Brunches held to date look for more to come in the New Year. Next Saturday the Lions will be holding their annual Mystery Tour and Poker Rally and they will be hoping for a good turnout. The route promises to be logger and more challenging than ever.

I have nothing but scorn for the modern "objective' journalists who tell it as it is. They are hyenas and jackals, who fatten on the leavings of the "lions" of our society, for the most part. Let's get back on topic. as I tell my students. The Canadian society has roughen- ed and coarsened to an astonishing degree in the last 30 years. Many people are in- volved in our current quilt course and many just want to maintain the quilts they al- ready have. Here are some tips from Good Housekeeping Needlecraft Fall/Winter 77/78. If you have a charming old quilt, you may want to try to restore it. Consider, first, if it hu great value -either histor- ic or sentimental. If it does, it really should be handled by an expert. Also, if it is so fragile that it might not withstand even the most careful handling, it might be best only to preserve and protect its faded beauty from further deterioration without leaning It first.

Sugar & Spice by Bill Smiley First, the Steakhouse and Tavern. As a kid working on the boats on the Upper Lakes, I was excited and a little scared when 'saw that sign in American ports: Duluth, Detroit, Chicago. 1 cams from the genteel poverty of Ontario in the Thirties, and 1 was slightly appalled, and deeply attracted by these signs: the very thought that drink could be publicly advertis- ed. Like any normal, curious kid, i went into a couple, ordered a two-bit whiskey, and found nobody eating steaks, but a great many people getting sleazily drunk on the same. Not the steaks. In those days, in Canada, there was no such creature. The very use of the word "tavern" indicated iniquity. It was an evil place. We dd have beer "parlours," later exchanged for the euphemism "beverage rooms." But that was all right. Only the lower element went there, and they closed from 6 p.m. to 7:30, or some such, so that a family man could get home to his dinner. Not a bad idea, in their homes, of course, the middle and upper class drank liquor. Beer was the working -man's drink, and to be shunned. It was around then that some wit reversed the old saying, and came out with: "Work is the curse of the drinking class." a neat conversion of Marx's(?) "Drink is the curse of the working classes." 1f you called on someone in those misty days, you were offered a cuppa and something to eat. Today, the host would be humiliated if he didn't have something harder to offer you. Now, every hamlet seems to have its steakhouse, complete with tavern. It's rather ridiculous. Nobody today can afford a steak. Bu t how in the living world can these same people afford drinks, at current prices? These steakhouses and taverns are usually pretty sleazy joints, on a par with the old beverage room, which was the epitome of sleaze. It's not all the fault of the owners, though they make nothing on the steak and 100 per cent on the drinks (minimuni). It's just that Canadians tend to be noisy and crude and profane drinkers. And the crudity isn't only in the pubs. It has crept into Parliament, that august institution, with a prime minister who used street language when his impeccable English failed, or he wanted to show how tough he was. It has crept into our educational system, where teachers drink and swear and tell dirty jokes and use language in front of wo men that 1, a product of a more well-mannered, or inhibited, your choice, era. could not bring to use myself. And the language of today's students, from Grade one to Grade whatever, would curl the hair of a sailor,a nd make your maiden aunt grab for the smelling salts. Words from the lowest slums and slummlest barnyards create rarely a blush on the cheek of your teenage daughter. A graduate of the depression. when people had some reason to use bad language. in sheer frustration and anger, and of a war in whkh the most common four-letter word was used as frequently, and absent-mindedly, as salt and pepper, have not inured me to what our kids today consider normal. Girls wear T-shirts that are not even funny, merely obscene. As do boys. Saw one the other day on an otherwise nice lad' Message: "Thanks, all you virgins • for nothing." The -Queen is a stump. God is a joke. The country's problems are somebody else's problems, u long as 1 get mine. 1 don't deplore. I don't abhor. I don't implore. 1 merely observe. Sadly. We are turning into a nation of slobs. Caring for those precious quilts LAUNDERING 'To freshen quilts find out: 1. If a quilt is colorfast by wetting a small area with water and a mild washing agent, then drying with a blotter. If the colour fades, you must decide if you want a tinted (but clean) quilt or an unfaded but dirty one. The end result of washing and slight fading can sometimes be very striking. You might even think of it as part of the design. Bleeding madras is a good example. Your grand- mother's quilts arc likely to run because the material they were made from was home dyed. But if your decision is against washing, simply clean the qullt with a hand vacuum cleaner on both sides, air outdoors. 2. If the filler is showing through or if the edges are frayed, it is advisable to repair the quilt before laun- dering. An old, fragile quilt an be cleaned le a bathtub by laying it in with u few folds as possible. Let lukewarm water flow into the tub, but not directly on the quilt. A mild soaking solution may be used before 'rutting, The point lo remember is not to lift the quilt or place undue strain on the old stitches, but to use only a gently patting action. Drain water at each stage, but do not remove the quilt from the tub. A number of rinsing: are necessary to remove impurities: Press against the tub to squeeze out water. Biot with towels. Lay out on beach towels or mat- tress pads, or dry in a shady place. After the top is par- tially dry, turn the quilt over onto dry towels to hasten drying process. It is not an easy task, but one worth doing to prolong the life of your quilts. 'If a quilt is badly stained, laundering may only make stains more obvious against the dean area. in most cases, old stains cannot be identi- fied, and methods for re- moval would be difficult to determine. Thus, it may be better just to remove loose soil. RESTORING AND MENDING A ragged edge ora torn seam detracts from the beauty of an old quip, and can be remedied with a little needlework. The edge is usually the first part to show signs of wear and tear and many old quilts can be found with rebound edges, done with cloth of a later period. For badly damaged edges, there are several possibili- ties. 1. The edge can be trim- med back an inch or two and rebound. 2. A facing can be applied to the underside, 8 to 10" deep, with some quilting added to hold it in place, an d the facing turned to the front as a binding; or a separate binding can be made. 3. A new border can be built up from the top side of the quilt, facing the underside, then adding filler and finishing the edge. 4. if ragged, torn areas on your quilt are merely unstitched, all you have to do is add a little filler to the bare spots, reinforce the back if necessary, and blindstitch the pieces back together. A little quilting in the recon- structed part will finish the job. K some pieces are destroyed, replace them with material blending with the original, or cover worn patch- es with net. For badly damaged quilt backing: 1. Reinforce with net, or blind -stitch on a new backing lightly tacked into place. 2. If the edge is worn, the new quip backing may be turned over to front to form a new binding (remove old one first). LAUNDERING A QUILT 1. Place quilt between two sheets of nylon net. 2. Seam lengths of nylon net together to make two pieces the size of quilt. 3. Place the quilt between them and baste together. This method serves as a strengthening device to ease the strain on the fabric. 4. For modern quilts only: When washing by machine, use water at a moderate temperature•preferably soft water and mild detergent, for safety. If washer will not accommodate the weight of the wet quilt, use heavy-duty machine at neighbourhood Laundromat. Drying can be done one of two ways: 'Outdoors, in the shade. banging from two parallel lines to better distribute the quilt's weight. 'Or, drying your quilt on the air -only cycle of a clothes dryer. 5. To take out spots from a quip: 'Each spot should be treated individually for best results. 'If you are able to identify the spot you wish to remove, consult a spot re- moval information guide. 'Can't identify the spot? Leave it alone) 'Do not put quilts in plastic. Cloth needs air circulation. An airtight enclosure is an excellent breeding ground for fungi. mold. mildew, and also brown -spotting from impuri- ties in fabric. 'Wrap quilts loosely in undyed old sheets or towels and store in a dry place, avoiding temperature extremes. 'A chest or shelf for storage is preferable to a cardboard box, which often retains dampness. 'Quilts need periodk airing and refolding in different posi- tions for the sake of preserva- tion.

A stuffed teddy bear at the• end of the craft table near the entrance door was snapped up by an eager buyer half a minute after the bazaar open- ed. Nearby. other stuffed toy animals- a fawn, donkey. giraffe. dog, cat etc. waited their turn to cuddled, (the were behind bars in a cagey Amid knitted tams, mitts. slippers. aprons. doilies. etc, there stood out boldly a brand new pair of men's rubber overshoes with store tickets still on them. How appropri ate for the slushy streets that prevailed' A donor. noted for her wail hangings, added this year's plaques of pressed cork dis- playing silk flowers. They were gone in no time. Items eagerly sought after were 12 pair of panties and in a choice of 5 colours and 3 sizes. One lady has been donating them for six years. and they have gained the reputation for never wearing out. This year at the bake table one could buy a casserole supper, all ready for heating as well as the popular indivi• dual meat vies. ahoeh Each year, a gentleman donates 12 Yule log decors• tions for the Christmas gift table. He obtains the white birch in Northern Ontario. and the smokeless, odourless candles are contributed by his daughter in Toronto. These bring in a tidy sum. Several valuable antiques went for song at the Attic Treasurers' table: one, a hundred year old white Royal Iron stone China plate: ano- ther, a hob nail candle holder and shade. At two places one could buy pin cushions: at the Christ. mas table, where velvet and lace helped to convert salmon cans into parlour chairs: and at the Explorers' centre, These girls, under the leader- ship of Susan Howson. had a display for the first time. Their cushions took the form of elegant velvet decorated chapeaux. The three Dieffenbachia at the Green Thumb centre received an extra glance or two as did the four kinds of Begonia and the Pearls. The Campbell corner conveyed a picture of autumn foliage in baskets of attractive leaves and flowers. Piles of turnips, pumpkins and potatoes filled the pro- duce table.

GOOD Hamm Chapel (c everal things have hap- ned in recent days that makes me ask the question "Where will it end?" At the chapel in Auburn we have a flood light that lights up the front of the church in the evening. to the last couple of weeks the light has been opened and the quartz bulb inside hu been deliberately broken. These bulbs cost 525 each. That means that 550 has been spent to replace the two bulbs which have been broken. A third bulb has been purchased which means we have spent 575.00 for bulbs. Whether it is .75 cents or 575.00 it shows a lack of respect for the property of others. On Saturday the 14th of November. 1 rode my motor• - bike back along the abondon• ed railway track behind Hamm's garage. When it was time for me to return I was following along the path on my bike and 1 saw two individuals walking along where the old track crosses the stream and the railroad below. As 1 approached they suddenly disappeared. Sud- denly I was aware of a heavy wire they had stretched across the pathway, about a The minister's study foot high from the ground. I braked my bike but not before I came in contact with the wire which caused me to tumble to the ground with my bike. As a result of my fall I fractured several ribs on my left side. Needless to say I am suffering pain as a result of this. I'm only thankful that 1 saw the wire and was able to brake and experience only broken ribs, It could have been more serious if 1 had not seen the wire in time and it would have caused me to go over the side of the enbank- ment and fall to the creek or railroad bed some thirty or forty feet below. it indicates to me that there arc some individuals on the loose who 'have very little respect for life or property. Where will it end? We have a responsibility as parents and citizens to impart values and value principles to the chil- dren of our community. Somehow we seem to be failing to do that, as these incidents 1 have related would indicate. 1 think a closer Zink between church and home would help in this area of development of our children. Prepare for Christmas At Blyth United Church on Nov. 22nd. Mr. Wittich spoke on the second of 3 sermons on the Second Coming of Christ. entitling it "A time To Take Note." To help understand it. Scripture passages had to be read from Revelation 16 and Matthew 24, and Isaiah 60 1.14 was read antiphonally. Mr. Wittich quoted from news items and Scientists' predictions, making us real- ize that the world situation k very frightening. Knowing how many Old Testament prophesies have come true, more are bound to as well. Scripture outlines details of Armageddon (or Megiddo, just south of Bethlehem): and includes evidence that the North could attack Israel, who would be aided by the West. The largest army would come from the East, against them. The south will also attack, and recent news reports of 5 Arab States having sought the co-operation of Russia. Should we be reading be- tween the lines? The nature of the battles is also predicted, to be followed by famine and disease and unthinkable living condi- tions. Christ comes for Christians first. We must prepare. pray- erfully and seriously.

Sunday is also officially Christmas Seal Sunday across Canada, when regional lung associa- tions solicit support for their campaigns and programs from Churches. Huron -Perth Lung Asso- ciation executive director Beryl Dunsmore says this time around the organization hopes to raise 12 per cent more than the 550,000 it raised in last year's Christ- mas Seal Campaign in Huron and Perth, 515,000 of which went as assessment to provin- cial and national associations for research into lung diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, lung cancer, pneumonia and even the common cold. About one in four Canadians, or 5.8 million people, have lung abnormalities. Mrs. Dunsmore says, as is the case every year, the remainder of the money raised in last year's Huron. Diabetes Continued from page 2 and Isabel Burke had attend- ed as branch representative. A short film entitled "Heart Sweet Heart" was shown by Paula Blagrove and enjoyed by all. Those attending were di- vided into five groups to discuu several questions re- garding what the members thought the branch should be providing for them, topics of interest for future meetings and how the members could contribute to branch tune- tioas. Bob` Perry the President, outlined some of the commit- tees that still need chairper- sons in the branch to make it work more effectively and these included Pubik Rela- tions, Camps and annual March campaigns. A door prize donated by Vance's Drug Store, Wing - ham was woo by Mt. Currie Colwell of Ludknow. Perth Christmas Seal Cam• paign was used for the association's work in the two counties, for instance breath- ing classes, carbon monoxide testing, family asthma courses for children and smoking prevention pro- grams. The area lung associa- tion concentrated on occupa- tional health with its "Lungs Are For Life Program" with area industries in the middle of October, and has just launched a "Freedom From Smoking Program" which involves two manuals devel- oped by the American Lung Association to help indivi- duals understand and kick their addiction to tobacco (ideally in 20 days). Mrs. Dunsmore says smok- ing patterns in the area appear to have changed in the last 10 years. Fewer students in grades 11 through 13 are smoking these days, but more in grades 8 through 10, and more teenage women are smoking than was the case a decade ago. Besides being a killer, lung disease costs Canadians an estimated S400 -million annually for hospital treat• meet and an additional S100 - million 100•million a year for payments to physicians, the cost of drugs, and related charges. Lung associations have used the Christmas Seal Campaign as their sok means of raising funds since 1927. funds which only a few years ago were effective in almost wiping out the "mysterious white plague". tuberculosis. The Christmas Seal Campaign ends Jan. 31, 1982. The H•P Lung Associa- tion office is at 653 West Gore St., Stratford. It's telephone number is 271-7500.
