The area fire board levy for Blyth was increased to $5,700 from `.$4,750 due to :the. purchasing of new equip- ment, parts and helmets. The new truck for the department is , due in : 1983. Council increased its total for the reserve this year to $3,000 from $2,000. There is now $7,000 in reserve for the Blyth share``of the truck.

And it is spreading in the most unusual fashion and in the most peculiar ways. The case of convicted murderer Clifford Olson in B.C. is a prime example of just how sick our society has become. While Olson is a case in himself, the parents involved are also running into danger of falling into the sam. e sick category. The RCMP paid Olson .$90,000'for information leading to the recovery. of the bodies of the children Olson had murdered. It has been disclosed in several reports that without the information from Olson himself the bodies would never have been ,found. The. families were spared any more heartache, no matter what the cost. And the kcost was $90,000. But there are a few more points to consider there"other than the phrase "blood`( money" that has been bandiekl about : by the media. If the case had continued further there would have been millions of dollars more spent in tryingto pin the murders and recover the bodies. Time would have stretched to eternity for the families awaiting news on whether theirr children were dead or alive and if dead where the bodies were: The problem arises now with the public opinion of paying Olson for,the information. Some: of the families have made plans tb'sue `the Olson. family for their share of the money. But what good would that do? At best they wouid_profit by_$5,000or $6,000wat the most after division and legal fees. And what price do they pay emotionally for dredging, the case through the courts over the next two, or three years? The calls of "blood money" would not change and in the end they would be foreverhaunted by the matter made even more sour by. their scrapping_ over' dollars that will never alleviate_their sorrow or bring their children back The matter of the money paid to Olson is no different, than terrorists who bargainwith their lives for the lives of other terrorists more wanted than they. Or- the gangster who puts plea- bargaining on the line and turns in several `other murderers while, he goes, free on his charges of murder: While the issue:of paying for information is questionable each case is uniqueand the 'advantages, `in .this on. e. appear `to' far outweigh the disadvantages. "` Winter has to be the season when all us learn how far our patience can be . stretched. Patienceis waiting that extra 30 seconds before.pulling onto a slippery or snow -packed highway in front of another' vehicle. Patience is waiting that' extra, two minutes for the 'car' to warm up before 'roaring\down the drive. Patience is waitingfor a man to come and snowblow out your drive.

But then comes winter Take last" week for example. It took several trips plunging through snow to the navel up and down our .900: foot laneway. (whoops, that should be 271.35678 metres, shouldn't it) to find out if the snowplow had. finally been down and to find where the car had disappeared to and sweep enough snow off to"get in after first poking around under the hood for a half hour to find there was still anengine under all that white stuff blown in. There wasn't much shovelling to do here because thankfully the : neighbour came. along with his snowblower to do the job (the invention of the computer did nothing to advance; mankind compared to the snow- blower). At last able to get into the car,and drive, .I made it to the office, actually before starting. time. But the fun had just. begun: Forty-five. minutes of digging later I had found the office door and managed to breach a path half way to the sidewalk. I left the rest for later, figuring any little old ladies who wanted to visit the office that day would just have to bring their snowshoes: Luckily another snowblower came along . and finished the job before I was able to finish it, or itwas able to finish me. And now we've just had a second weekend of storm and although I haven't had the courage to look, I suspect I'm in for a repeat performance.

But so far nobody's tried to blame Pierre Trudeau for the blizzards, say the record tempera- tures are a plot by the Russians to undermine democracy, or claim the greed of the bankers is behind the huge piles of • ;snow. 'Not yet anyway. ****** Ronald Regan has not been happy with Canada over our government's attempt to buy back some of . our industry and has threatened retaliation. Perhaps there's more behind it .though. I -mean we -Canadians are "always being. blamed for the latest dose of rotten weather that freezes the oranges or nips the noses of Washington senators. Perhaps' our am- bassador needs to point out some facts of geography to Americans to make them not dislike us so much. You see, they always talk. about cold air coming down from Canada but if you look at a map, it's not our. fault: To be sure the cold weather` comes from the Arctic but weather patterns also come from the west. Now themost westerly part of the Arctic happens to be Alaska., Therefore, the rotten weather Canada is passing on to the southern U.S, came from the U.S, in the first place. Maybe we should retaliate. No one would caII 1981 a good year for Ontario farmers. Increased : capital and operating costs, coupled with ' crippling interest rates, madeit one of the worst years. farmers have had to undergo in decades. But as bad as it was, there have been worse years: And farmers, fortunately, tend to take the long view of life.' Farmers are familiar with the various seasons of life: not just • seasons for. ` planting and . seasons for harvesting, but the seasons of plenty and the 'seasons of need. We in the Ministry of Agriculture and Food are also familiar with seasons and cycles. We.:..:. too` take thelong view of life. That is why we have launched a year-long, $60 million assistance program for 1982 to help qualified fanners who need. refinancing, "bridging" . or adjustment financing Although this could be called a short-term program, its aiin is long-term: to ensure that, .those producers who receive this aid will be running full-time, fully productive, viable operations in the future. This,however, is just our most recent program. There were also many programs launched . last year. For example, 1981 was a very bad year for beef. producers. That is why we introduced the $30 million Slaughter Cattle Assistance Program, the recently expanded $9 million Stocker Cattle Assistance Program, and the $20 million Cow -Calf Program to help protect our important beef -breeding industry. ' In addition, the sow-weaner stabilization plan was triggered by low prices and paid out $7 million to producers. History has taught us how, dangerous it is to reply on other countries for the necessities of life. The oil crisis instigated' by the OPEC nations is just the most recent example. We cannot afford to be as reliant on others for food as we were on the OPEC nations for oil. Many of our programs are designed to help Ontario become more self-sufficient in trpnic of food supplies. They are investments in the ' future. This should be a°national goal. There are ' also numerous agricultural programs under'.BILD The Board" of Industrial Leadership and Development:' the $20 milliqn capital assistance for '..,food processing program; $1:5 million for aspar- agus production, $1.5 million for the cream assistance program ; $2 " million for the expansion of the' Farmers' Market "' at the Ontario Food Terminal; $1:75 million,. for the, equipment fund for agricultural collegesand the $15 million whey incentive program: And there have been some successes 'in 1981: "This has"' been'" a "record': year rfor exporting rting corn from our record '200 million bushel harvest, a harvest with a farm' gate value of more than half a billio dollars. Our numerous trade missions to other countries have increased Ontario's share of the ,world food market, : and our Foodland Ontario Program has increased our share of the market here at home.: It is worth nothing that the Foodland Ontario Program is playing an ` especially important : role in making Ontario more; self-sufficient by replacing more and more imported foods with Ontario -grown foods. But what will 1982. be like? Right now it's not easy to predict: The economists and other "experts" don't offer much hope. But there. is one ray of sunshine. They predict that the interest rates will come down. . Like most farmers 1 am an optimist: All of us believe in. Canada as a nation. We have experienced tough years before. Co-opera- tion between governments, industry, farmers and consumers have turned the wheel to better times in the past and will again. 1 look forward' to 1982 with a cautious degree in optimism.

About the only areas left i, which one may chance a remark without fear of inflicting a wound are politics and sex. It's extremely ` difficult to inflict even a bruise on a politician. He must have a fat ego in the first place, and he quickly acquires a brass hide to go with it. Add an ability to talk out of both,sides of the mouth at once, and a certain skill in straddling fences, and you have cabinet material. In the field of sex, there don't seem to be any limits any more to what can be said, presented or simulated Movies, magazines and theatres; club us over the head withraw, unembellished sex, or seek to titillate the spook -in -each of -us -with -highly -embellished,; freaky sex until the whole once -exciting subject has become a crashing bore. Aside from sex and politics then,there is scarcely an aspect of the human scene where even angels fear to tread, lest: they step on someone's sensibilities Ethnic, jokes are out, black is beautiful, gefillte fish is glorious, 'Rhodesia is rotten, poor people are more noble than rich people, gay is gorgeous, and the only real sin is to be old. • Lord forbid that we should•ever go back to the days when a Catholic was a "mick" or a "dogan," a blpck person was a "nigger," an Italian was a "wop," and Chinese was a "chink,"and so on. • But I do get heartily sick of a society in which you have to tippy -toe all the time for fear of offending some touchy minority, or trespassing, inadvertently on someone's weird religious affiliations._ We are developinginto a society with a snobbish sort of reverse prejudicein which everybody is leaning over backwards in order to appear not even to be breathing on anyone else. As a result, we are losing much of that good old .,Canadian : crustiness and turning into a nation of nice nellies in whose mouths margarine wouldn't: melt Even our media reflect this trend in our society. With few exceptions, our news -papers- are _is.. bland_.as: blanc_: mange:_. The letters to the editor have more bit,; and are often better written, than the editorials:; Our magazines ate either ; tiresomely • • "liberal" or narrowly nationalistic, or both. Tied in tight bundles, they make better firewood than they do reading matter. Television and radio news' reporting, most of it culled;. from the late editions of newspapers, is incredibly unimaginative and repetitious: TV programs, on the whole, are pure pap, offensive by being so inoffensive. Public figures • are so •frightened of offending .somebody or losing a few votes, that their public utterances come out as mush wrapped in marshmallow. • • What this country, and this society, need is a good dash of cold water from somewhere, to wake us from our mind -numbing, paralyz- ing, "niceness:" We need a Bob Edwards or a Grattan O'Leary to ` jolt us with, some honest vituperation, ,som colorful namecalling, some hard facts, and some common sense: We need some politicians with guts, who -don't-give-a-diddle-for -the -popularity-polls and who would give us the facts of life without any sugar 'coating. We need some educators with backbone to tell the people who claim that Huckleberry. Finn is racist and The Merchant of Venice is anti-semitic and Catch-22 is dirty 'and The Diviners is disgusting, to go fly a kite. We need about 10,000 fewer smart -ass commentators on what is ` wrong with this country, and a few hundred honest men or women to tell us what is right with it.. or If you are concerned about controlling your weight you might wonder if you can eatiin fast food restaurants and stay.. trim. Here are some thoughts to consider. • . Did you know that a meal of a cheeseburger, an order of french fries and a chocolate , shake provides nearly 1000 calories, half of these from fat and sugar? This • selection supplies '/� of the average woman's daily energy needs, but only I/4 to'h;of her major nutrient needs. Changing this order to a burger, cole slaw: and milk. wouldreduce the calories to about 600: and increase -the -supply -of nutr-i- ents But, can you resist the temptation to order the high calorie items? How often do you intend to have a burger and glans of .milk and end up ordering a burger, french fries and ashake? If this is typical of you, your best alternative is :to elimi- nate the temptation by avoid- ing the fast food restaurants which don't offer lower calor- ie choices. Seek out restaur- ants which have skim milk, salad bars, fresh . fruit and fruit juices. You will eat fewer. calories, feel less guilt and. enjoy your meal immensely. FAST FOOD SURVIVAL In summary there are a few things to remember if you do want to eat .fast and well. --1,-Be.choosey when_selecting your fast food outlet. 2. Then, choose wisely from what's .available. 3. Take along fresh fruits and vegetables from home or the corner store tosupplement your order, 4, Ask for foods you would like on the menu such as skim milk, fresh fruit, . salads, juices, etc. Take action:.. see the manager, write the com panypresident. Repeated re- quests should get results, After all, restaurants are there to serve you...aren't they? 5. Include missing food groups in your other meals and snacks. Remember, it's what you eat during the whole day that counts. • For more suggestions on fast food choices;__ask-•.for.:a - copy , of Easy Eating, and Snacks Food , for • Thought fr?m your local health depart- ment. • We need far fewer "reasonable" people and •a heck of a, lot: more "unreasonable". people, ; who ,would refuse to accept some- thing just because it's; always been done that , way, or someone might be "upset if things were changed. • We need some thundering editorials, some pulpits pounded, some stiff jail sentences for racism, some honesty in high places.

BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE• i1,1li1141 ilhi iiI iJiYil III M • the Standard, 519-523-9646 BLYTH, ONTARIO THE MATH STANDARD, JANUARY 20, 1982 A9 I3Y STEPHANIE LEVESQUE Huron County Board, of Education approved establishing Identification, Place- ment and, Review Committees '(IPRC), for each school in its jurisdiction. As part of the implementation of Bill 82 (special education amendments to the Education. Act), the committees are set up to identify, place and review at least annually exceptional children. IPRCs will include, the principal of the school, the teacher in which the student is registered, the teacher who is or nnay be providing assistance to the student, and a representative of administration, who may be the area resource teacher, co-ordinator of student services or the superintendent of education involved with . special education, Parents of the student involved are invited to the committee. meeting; Director of education John Cochrane, reminded the board special education is a "high priority" item and "will be highly visible for the next few meetings." (Boards of education across the province must submit to the Ministry of Education by May 1, their plans to implement special education in their systems.) As a prelude to this, Roger Miller, an education officer with the regional office Of the ;Ministry of Education showed a video tape and answered trustees questions at the. January meeting. Trustee Bert Morin expressed concern re funding " of extracosts attached to the implementation of Bill 82. He said he is, aware of funding as it has been announced to date, that is the province has committed itself until 1985, but what happens after that, Mr. Miller was only aware of the committment until 1985.,.... Trustee Dennis Rau asked what happens if a child has to be sent to another agency and the parents don't want the child to go. Mr. Miller said the.IPRC makes a recommenda- tion of placement . to the board, i,e. the W.Ross Mcdonald School for the deaf, and the board makes a decision. If the parents do not agree with the decision, it goes to an appeal board at thelocal level, and if the answer still does not satisfy the parents, it goes to a tribunal, which if that does not satisfy the parents, the Minister of Education has the final say. One trustee asked how many more teachers would Huron County require and, this question was answered by superinten dent of education Don Kenwell. He agreed • • Huron County has a pretty good base, butan increase • in services is necessary " at the secondary, level and for the gifted ,child. Mr. Miller said Huron County is fortunate because"a lot of special education programs are already available; Currently the needs assessment committeeis processing data on the needs and numbers of exceptional children in Huron County: . After a' nine-month trial period, Huron County Board of Education will return to holding its . monthly meeting on . the first Monday of the month; As of May 7;:1981, meetings were held on the. first Thursday of the month to accomo- date the weekly press with its Tuesday deadline.' Allowing the press representative an opportunity to voice its opinion in favor of the Thursday meetings, the board's position was to favor the Monday meeting to eliminate a supplementary agenda. Trustee Murray Mulvey asked if meeting 7 were -held -on -a -Monday-if-it-would-do -away-- with the supplementary agenda and there- fore, be less bookkeeping for administration. Mr. Cochrane, s id he ,hoped it would.. Presently agendas are mailed out the Thursday or Friday prior to a board meeting, and would remain that way with Monday. meetings. Mr. Cochrane said in the week between mailing agendas and the meeting' date, letters were receivedor meetings held which necessitated a supplementary agenda. In otherbusiness, the board; Approved offering a summer school at Central Huron Secondary School, Clinton in 1982, a principal be appointed and the minimum subject enrolment be five students, and if less than that number, the subject may be offered if it's possible to combineit with another grade of the same subject; Approved membership in the Ontario Association for Curriculum Development at $100 for 1982; Acknowledged a letter from Transporta- tion and Communications Minister James Snow declining to install caution signs at Huron Haven park on Highway 21. The minister cited "excellent visibility", and the use of red flashing lights on school buses as "excellent advance warning .of the presence :of -a -school -bus. -. Supports a motion from the Timiskaming, Board of Education stating, "that this board believes the right of students and taxpayers to uninterupted education should be;manda-. tory in a democracy, and that it should be illegal for teachers to strike and that it should' beillegal for boards to lock -out". • • • • • OTTAWA -The new chairman of the Ontario Press Council 'and his predecessor. has called on all English- language daily newspapers in Ontarioto make themselves. accountable to the public by participating in the Council Both J. Allyn Taylor; the new chairman, and Davidson Dunton noted that only 10. (23.8 per`, cent) of the pro- vinces 42 : English-language_ dailies : participate in ` :the „Council, < just two more than the eight that founded .'the organization in 1972: ; How ever, theyemphasized that the percentage of participat- -------ing--newspaPers -- does.-- not reflect the true importance of. the Council as an instrument available to the public to complain about the conduct of the press since the 10 daily • member newspapers ; have 55:3 per cent of the daily English-language circulation in the province.: "Our emphasis on English- language., dailies does nglishlanguage .::dailies. -:.does _ not mean neglect of daily news papers , published in other languages or in weekly news- papers published" in any language," said a statement by the two men. "More than once since the Council began, it has invited Ottawa Le- Droit, the pro- vince's only French -language ' daily, to ;'participate in the Ontario Council on behalf of those readers living in . this province. Le Droit already participates in the :: Quebec Press Council on behalf of its Quebec readership through its . membership in Les Quotidiens of Quebec, an association of French -lang- uage dailies.: `Only 14 of Ontario's 282 weekly, or community, news- papers have joined. the Coun- cil. A warm welcome awaits - :any others who - wish to y participate: "Signs abound that the public and' governments share a growing mistrust of all .forms of media. The Kent Royal Commission on News- -- papers- of .1980 -,,81 --and the Special Senate Committee on the , Mass Media in 1969=70. arose in large part from that feeling.

But : they are all matters of enormous concern to the' individuals or groups involved." Mr. Taylor reiterated re- marks he made in October after his appointment, saying that he is still surprised and disappointed in the narrow newspaper participation m the Council I said then, and I repeat now, that ,every' daily and every weekly newspaper in Ontario ought to . participate voluntarily in. the. Council because ` it is a valid instru- ment for nstru-ment,.:for : monitoring :: press behavior. The ,public needs an independent body like the Council to monitor the press, just as it needs the press to monitor society "Moreover, the Council has another role of particular, importance' at this time—de- fending imede-fending the public interest in the freedom of public ex- pression, including the'. freed dom of the press. "This issue concerns news paperreaders as much as' it:• concerns newspapers be-'. cause it ::involves :_the _...tradr `. tional right, shared; equally by individual people and media,' to comment freely on •blic matters. Full support : ' )ill Ontario dailies ' would g.eatly strengthen the Coun- cil's efforts to discharge: this responsibility successfully." For his part, Mr. ' Dunton, chairman from the Council's inception in mid -1972 until '• I last Dec. 31, summed up the organization's first nine years by saying that "we have contributed a great deal to society, and to a truly free and responsible press." Mr. Taylor noted that 1982 not only brings the Council a new chairman, but a com- plete change from the origi- nal 1972 membership..Along with Mr. Dunton, the other remaining original members Marianne Barrie of ; St. Thomas and Ron Tipler of, Simcoe--retired at the end of 1981.

One of the astounding mira- cles of God's creation. Another miracle ` is our- selves. It is said that, every human being is different.a That means there is some- thing distinctive : about, each one of us. God took a special interest in each of uswhen he made 'us. His interest in us has continued throughout our life. His desire for us is that we should know him, love him and enjoy him forever. The snowflake `lasts for only a very short time. We are made to live forever.. If God is sufficiently interested in the snowflake to make each one different, how much more he must be interested, `in each one of us: His concern for us is so great : that the Gospel declares.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, JANUARY Audiences which have flocked to Blyth Summer Festival mystery thrillers from the Mousetrap in 1975 to I'll Be Back For You Before Midnight in 1979 and 1980 will have an opportunity to be frightened again when the ;classic thriller Sleuth is brought to.the Blyth -stage March 2 by the Muskoka Festival. '. Sleuth, written by ,Anthony Shaffer, has all the ingredi- ents of a top -class thriller, a plot whose twists and sur- prises are breathtakingly au- dacious and fiendishly cun- ning, suspense and excite ent galore and a staggering. denoument. Yet it is far more than just that. It is, also brilliant parody of the Agatha Christie country -house thriller, mercilessly satirising the genre at the same time as using its technical devices for • • torm cancers activities The weather .played havoc with the Sunday morn- ing service and prevented Rev. Wittich from attending. However the residents took over and a service of song was conducted. Mrs, Betty Scratch opened the service and Mr, Frank Bissett assist- ed at the organ. Margaret McQueen sang a solo. Monday's : storm also caused the cancellation of Marie Flynn's Old Tyme, Music on Monday afternoon. The Golden': Radar Club of Clinton hosted .the January birthday party on Wednesday .. afternoon. The residents en- joYed the musical; pro- gramme. Coffee and birthday cupcakes were served' at the; close. In the absence of : Mrs, Prouty . on Thursday Mr. Wayne Lester conducted tBible Study. R.C. Mass was held in the chapel on Friday morning.

Dr. Schilthuis has been working on getting. a ,few of his clients onto a herd health program. The first step is to look at the production records and set goals for the farm. Goals that can be met and that are not too unrealistic. - Where a lot of a farmers fall down, he says, is in the department of record keeping..... Usually last on a long list of things that a farmerhas to do, the records inevitably come up not being done. With records a farmer is able to show where there is improvement and where more improvement is indicated. • The majority of clients want their problem rectified and call in a vet, pointed out Dr. Schilthuis but, vets should be spending more time with their clients and helping them set their goals. , "The ultimate question is the cost factor" remarked Dr. Schilthuis: •"But herd health should promote itself with fewer vet bills and increased production." The group shot qu stions at the veterinari- an for close to an hourJjrguingthat increased production through me icated feeds and the like was against the stewardship of the land that they as a group promote. The doctor countered that planning for the health of the herd while benefiting from a productive animal did not counteract what the group strives for.' The key topic of the questions was the presence of antibiotics and medicated feed. Members voiced concern about breeding the perfect hybrid that would' not withstand disease oti its own and therefore require costly medication. Dr. Schilthuis said that a happy medium would' have to reached and that a farmer on a herd health program would keep records about medication fed to his livestock and be more inforined about just what is being introduced and therefore have more control. In other business the group was asked by the provincial CFFO to consider a resolution concerning their involvement with the • Provincial Products Appeal Tribunal. Any changes or discussion would be returned to • the head office of the CFF. — John Maaskant was on hand to speak to the members about the resolution, • The tribunal was first formed by the Farm • Producers Marking Board as an outlet for both individuals and groups to seek satisfac- tion with marketing_boarproblems between them and their , , _ d,_ - Members of the tribunal are appointed by the Ontario Minister of Agriculture ,Lorne Henderson and Mr. Maaskant pointed out that some •of the appointees , have no background in agriculture. They only judge what is brought . before them, said Mr. Maaskant, and if some. information is not presented ,to them it is not taken into consideration when coming to a decision. Mr. Maaskant also frowned en the use Of lawyers saying it made it harder for the individual to • take part and that with the use of lawyers some may take advantage of the tribunal and seek compensation for purely selfish motives.

B) to itrovide a forum for debate and review of the long term directions of producer plan • production. 2. that CFFO encourage members as individuals to seek relief from regulations where their individual situations warrant it. . • Mr. Maiskant pointed out to members that while the tribunal was "basically a good idea" it does wield more power than the body • that initiated the formation of the• tribunal. The local CFF decided to have the resolution changed to indicate that debate within their own organization be encouraged concerning long term changes or the direction of marketing boards. Once the debate has been finalized, the results are to be sent to the umbrella \organization of the tribunal, _the_ Farm .Producers__Marketing. Board. ' • The resolution should include ii caution as to what the CFFO staff gets involved with Storm reports when helping members with cases before the tribunal. g Bill Jongejan brought members up to date , on the matter of hydro versus Foodlands- Hydro committee. The groups united to fight Ontario Hydro on the matter of transformer lines through this area have streamlined under one name and have retained the Canadian Environmental Law Association (CELA) to handle the case. , - The organizations involved - have given $250 for a retainer fee and Mr. Jongejan asked the membership if they would consider also chipping in. While the provincial CFFO is involved the Central Huron local is more • closely involved. The membership agreed to the proposal. • Mr. Jongejan said that with the proposed • development of a power grid there would be massive industrial development that would threaten the 1 million acres of class one _foodland_in_Perth,__Huron_ and_ Middlesex_• _ _ counties. "We don't have a choice," said Mr. Maaskant.
