in Ailsa Craig, Lt. Gov.
Pauline McGibbon stressed
that without volunteers our
province of Ontario would
indeed, by lonelier, sadder
and less human in spirit.
"The value of a volunteer
is beyond price", she em-
phasized,
Bringing a broad personal
background of over 40 years
of volunteer work to her
speech, her honour gave a
brief history of the role of the
volunteer noting that today's
volunteer is much better
trained and able to serve.
"It is the quality of par-
ticipation that is important",
she observed. .."the health
of a democratic society must
be measured by the quality
of function performed by the
private citizen".
"What ever personal
qualities you bring to your
task, the most important
discipline is reliability", she
counselled.
She concluded her speech
with the challenge,
"Mountain climbers always
help each other. Should the
rest of us be any different?
This is what being a
volunteer is all about. This is
why I say, be proud to be a
volunteer".

Because you won't pay
for it until October,
idienthnter's almost here.
For starters, natural gas is clean,
cheaper than oil* and secure in
supply. So even if your furnace isn't
on its last legs, it could really
pay you to go all the way to a clean-
burning, warm and friendly ,gas
furnace.
If you sign up no later than June
30 and we install your furnace and
humidifier by August 15, you won't
pay a cent for it till October, 1980, if
you have an approved credit rating.
And we'll throw in a 10%
discount on a built-in electronic air
cleaner.
So come on. Call Union Gas right
away. Then you can spend a nice hot
summer contemplating a nice
warm winter.
*Based on a seven-city average for house heating oil
and natural gas costs as of April 1,1980.
