is his first language, but he understands English.
Perry is expected to have minor surgery soon,, but his
health is excellent. He is not a particularly good' student,
though his teacher feels he.can handle regular classroom work
if he gets a great deal of help and encouragement.
A happy boy, Perry is alMoSt never without a smile. He
is likeable and agreeable and loves attention from adults.
Perry enjoys all sports and loves camping. He likes working
with tools and playing with trucks and cars. Western music
and Western movies are his favorites.
Perry needs parents who can combine love with consistent
discipline and who are not demanding in their ac ex-
pectations. To inquire about adopting Perry, plendifite to
Today Child, Department of Social and Family Services,

Name Hanover Native as
Huron Development (Vice they could set prices.
' if you think there are squeals
about food prices now, just wait
until then," Gaunt said.
The ultimate answer to the
threat was supply management,
he said. He said if the egg
vote was held soon, while thle
price of eggs was still low, he
had little doubt farmers would
vote for a marketing board., He
said he worried that the vote
would be delayed until the sit-
uation looked better and the board
might be in danger of not being
approved. '
At present, a struggle is being
waged between the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture which
supports the plan, and the Nat-
ional Farmers Union which is
against marketing plans.
Phil Durand of Zurich spoke
in the quetion period. He said
he was glad to hear Gaunt's
statements on the egg proposal
and his approval of the National
Marketing Act. He asked Gaunt's
opinion of the McRuer report on
civil rights which questioned
marketing legislation.
Gaunt said the report had been
caustic in its comments on
marketing legislation but agreed
with the evaluation of Agricul-
tural Minister Bill Stewart who
said the former judge who auth-
ored the report didn't know much
about farming and was looking at
the legislation from the point of
view of a lawyer. He said he
didn't think the remarks of the
judge would be taken too serious-
ly.
• I and my party support the
concept of marketing boards,"
Gaunt said.
• - lie-was-asked about milk
subsidy cheques from the Canad-
ian Dairy Commission and re-
ferred the question to Ross WI-
cher, M.P. from Bruce (also
present at the meeting) who said
he had been talking to the head
of the CDC that morning and had
been told the milk cheques were
being mailed that day.
Doug. Fortune asked Mr.
Gaunt if he knew how much quota
was being held by the OMMB.
Fortune said the OMMB held
back 25 per cent of all quotas
sold.
Gaunt said he did not know,
but would find out.
(Clinton News-Record)
Murray Gaunt, M.P.P. for
Huron-Bruce told the Huron
Federation of Agriculture at its
August meeting held in Hensel'
o1 that the current feud between
cheese factories and the Ontario
Milk Marketing Board was an
example of marketing legislation
being applied too rigidly.
Mr. Gaunt said he was in
favour of marketing plans but
said the OMMB is too rigid in
its dealings with small cheddar
cheese cheese factories through-
out the province and is going to
drive them 'out of business unless
it takes a more flexible approach.
He warned that such local cheese
factories as the Pine River
Cheese Factory near Ripley and
the Molesworth Cheese Factory
near Listowel will be doomed if
the present trend continues.
He said the problem„ was
caused because milk for cheese
factories was classed as Class 5
milk, the lowest priced milk and
therefore, in order that the
farmers would get as much money
as possible for their product, the •
OMMB had limited the amount of
milk in the class thus drastically
cutting the available supply to the
factories.
He said the OMMB had been
before the Agricultural Com-
*
mittee of the Legislature and
under pressure had agreed to a
milk price increase for milk for
the cheese plants.
But he warned that there would
still haste to be an 'adjustment in
the supply quotas for the
factories. He cited the Plum
Hollow factory as an example,
a factory operated by a co-
- -operative- which--was-making•
money but which may have to
close because its milk quotas
have been slashed by the OMMB.
Gaunt said the OMMB should
throw out its penalties for over-
production and raise quotas, even
by 10 per cent. This, he said,
would encourage farmers topro-
duce the milk needed by the
cheddar cheese industry,.
Gaunt said the board claimed
small plants were uneconomical
• but he said they produce a good
product and make money, and
shouldn't have "someone in
Toronto ma.15ing their decisions
for them.
1 •In the next few years, given
the present circumstances there
aren't going to be many cheese
factories," he warned. "Two or
three big producers will corner
the market." '
Supply management, in order
to work, must be flexible, he
said. The rigidity of the OMMB
showed the great danger of
supply management.
• Gaunt also said he was in
favour of the formation of an egg
marketing . board and said he
hoped there would be a vote soon
on the question.
He said the present farm
situation was depressing, ex-
pecially in • the egg and hog
• operations. He said he had
spoken with one farmer who had
11,000 hens and had lost$22,000.
He warned that if farmers

week during the CWNA annual
convention in Vancouver.
The award for the best story
on "What my local paper means-

first in the. Peninsula Times,
Sechelt, B.C. and is reproduced

not prone to gossip, sure of its
ground but very aware of all that
is going on. -
A local newspaper en-
compasses the whole spectrum of
life from birth notices to obit-
uaries, our accomplishments and
our failures are duly reported.
The written word is powerful
and that power should be used with
care. It can make live or destroy
ideas and people.
It must often write with a
sense of humor; if we can laugh at
our own problems it can lift the
burden' and monotony of everyday
life.
A subtle barb cleaked in
humor can often reach its target
,much faster than the poisoned
arrow and with a more desirable
effect.
A paper needs the courage to
make our public officials smart
a little when they are remiss in
their duties.
Local business needs its
pages to advertise and compete
with all their services.
It must beat the drum for pro-
gress with anticipation of better
things to come; praiie the organ-

harder, followed by constructive
criticism to help them Correct
