, Modern man lives in a throw-awaY•
society.
Each day we Use dozens of dispensable -
' icles, such as disposable diapers.,, paper
Owe's and kleenex, paper plates._plastic
knives, forks and spoons, disposable razor
• Mutes, shoe polish applicatos. and ink
carfridges in pens. .
We use them once and then discard
them. No wonder our trash cans fill so
- rapidly.
Man cases his products in plastic and
eardholid. Por- example, we buy„ two'
batteries for'a transistor radio. Each c'ell
measures about three inches, long and one
inch in diameter. .
They are mounted, on a piece, of
cardboard approximately fourinches by six
inches. Plastic . covers the, batteries
fastening them securely to the 'cardboard.
Now we pry on that touch, plastic! When
We finally loosen the batteries, what,
happens to • the plastic,. ad the
cardboard 4? We hurl them into the
, barbage bag. 1 -
Notice the number Of items, that are
similarly packaged, in department stores.
Supermarkets and drugstiotes. lipstick
tubts, eyebrovy pencils, razor blades, pens"
and pencils are only a few examples. Some
tubes of shampoo are enclosed, in boxes
•, twice their size.
• Man also envelopes his food in foil,
• cellophane and, cardboard. • When " we
unwrap the meat, Vegetables and fruit,
where do the containers go? They fall into
• the garbage pail..
-Do we consumers really want this
aborate packaging?would we settle for- ".
, le s foil "ectiojili'dne and ordlioard,, if we
• were assured 'of lower prices? Iii' an effort,
10 lower the cost of living, would we supply
our own bags and boxes in which to carry
our groceries home?
. 'Perhaps the packers aren't 'totally to .
blame. Sonfe. of, 'we consuniers., have
' become parupere4, and we are reluctant to
sacrifice those extras. t In the western word, man thctlightie-sslY.-..
,displays his wasteful tendencyf iAn average
Canadian or American discards more food
. each, d,ayrthsan a starving African ,eats in
one :week. We take for granted Our goad
fortune. Have we lost the ability to discern
,wdrthldssneSs from practicability?
What is the ddstination of our daily tons
of trash? If we're lucky, the refuse ends up .
in Sanitary Landfill ,Site's, better known as
'chimps. ' . •
Acres of farm land have Veen sentenced ,
- to reeeive our garbage: On' certain days,
. pungent smoke indicates the location of
c', • area -dumps. .
Much • of " our refuse becomeS
• sidetracked; for 'some 're'ason, it doesn't ,
.reach itsAieSignated burial plot. Instead it
lands in 'alleys, gutters, ditches, fence
'bottoma and,gorges. Our cities, towns and
• Countrysides are. littered with papers, tin . . .can's and Cartons.
Wherever man travels, he leaves a trail
of candy wrappers, apple cores; bottles and
cigarette butts. • Evidence of our
. throw-away -satiety abounds.
Besides garbage, what else has .medertf
- inan thrown away? We have discarded '
open fields, unuttered landscapes, fresh
air,' ru'shing, rivers, 'sandy beaches and.
clear lakes.'
To- satisfy ,our wasteful whims, we
- sacrificed much._ Now • we suffer the
consequences of our throw-awaY society

Fort Snow
• Borrowing from elechniqudi of' the eskimos, you .
. can help your, c ildren build their own fort .out of.
. snow.'
Materials:.
I-flat headed snow shovel
--water from •a hose with a spray nozzle
Instr • ,
--lots-and lots Of moist clinging snow
1. Mark out the dimen'sions of 'the fort sirnplY by
• . -making a .path .with Jour feet (dbp't be too •
ambitious a fort six feet square is plenty big)
:,2. Start making the snow blocks from the snow
inside the afea you have /narked out. To m ake
bl'Ock,dig the blade of the shovel' into the Snow to /
make a square orrectangular block of the size you
want, then carefully lift it Out with the blade, of
4-,the shovel. •
3. Place the blocks around the area you have ,marked
and build the walls as high as you' want. Extras
such as ,doors and windows can be added easily.
° 4. After the building-is finished, spray water over it
with the hose. •
'c Snow, snow and more snow
Sore backs from shbveling too much of the white
stuff, or buying snew tires or being stuck, are
perhaps the first things which come, tethe 'mind of
the average' adult- Canadian. To-a youngster the
images of wintet, are much different. Or at leastlhey ,
were.
In days gene by, children looked forward, to wint
eras being the time for making snow men or 'fighting '
battles from within a snow.fort or even the pleasure
of making angels in the snow. With the corning of'
snowmobiles, indoor arenas and of course.television,
many of the joys of winter have ben forgotten.
Snow is perhaps natures greatest, gift to young
I.
Canadians. 'What other material is, so readily
available, certainly So cheap and which can be uted
in so many ways for 'play and adventure? .
Most parents above the age of twenty-one come
from -the pre-snowmobile, pre-artifical ice and
pre-television addicted era. Therefore it is up to

• parents to take the first. -step in showing their,
• children how to enjoy winter, As with most play
actiVities it usually does, not take much to get a Child
started. Perhaps it Might mean 'Making a snow man
arlimply taking your child for a walk in the woods.
And in this age where oureav ironialii is being
r. threatened,,pchildren should 'see first: hand the
wonders . of nature so that they . will become its
• protectors. . '
•• with all outdoor activities, sensible
precaution should be' followed to, ensure comfort
add safety. Make- certain your child _understands'
• • each one. , . • • *.
I. The humarrbody ret ains body heat in proportion .1
to size ana age.. i nerefore 'a child will lose vital
body heat much'quicker than an adult.. Keckeyour
children well bundled up especially hands and
feet.
2: Because of differences in Moisture' levels- and
temperature's the human skin will attach aelf
uncoated metal 'in sub-freezing temperaturei.'
Re membering that things with which children play _
have a strange habit of making their way into the
child's mouth, this Word of advice is especially ,
'important.
3. Never let a child dig a ,tunnel deeply into the
snow, it could collapse _causing the child to
suffocate.
4„. Permanent injury can arise'from snowballs which
• are made from frozen snow or which have a hard
object buried within.' ,
.,• S. Ward your children against sliding down hills
. . Which might bring them into the paths of motor'
vehicles.
6. „If you live near a lake or pond, your children
• Should know how to test the strength of the ice. ,
7'. Some provinces have passed' laws 'forbidding
children under the age of ten from' driving a
snow mobile, if you are allowing your Young child to
• drive a snowmobile you Are literally endangering
his life.
Winter in Canada Is a beautiful season,help your
.children enjoy it.
